Home Rule History.

The movement which has resulted in passing the home rule bill at least through the house of commons began to show signs of being really important about IS years ago. Gladstone will go down in history as the greatest statesman of Eu- rope in the nineteenth century, but the achievement of home rule for Ireland will be the crowning effort of his life.
 When Gladstone was prime minister from 1880 to 1885, Parnell, with 90 Irish followers, forced home rule upon the at tention of the British parliament. Glad. stone was favorably inclined to it, but would not commit himself till the Irish Nationalist party was larger. In 1886 Parnell got in his work by showing up s5 home rulo members out of total Irish membership of 1oa, Then the British parliament began to take tho home rule question seriously. ....
 Home rule was introduced into that parliament and wrecked it, throwing Gladstone out of power. Some of his own best friends turned against him and have been his enemies ever since, notably Joseph Chamberlain, who married the American Miss Endicott. Six years the Conservative party held sway, and then England " anted Gladstone and the Lib- erals again. Gladstone and home rule both came up smiling. The issue that downed the Grand Old Man politically in 1886 has been settled in his favor in 1903, 50 far as the commons can settle 1t. It is a lesson illustrative of Lincoln's favorito rule-"koep begging away"

Cutler he will not be like the representative 0! any nationality now oa the globe, but will just be his own self" and nobody else. When the pilgrim fathers migrated from Holland to New England, it was not to secure religious liberty, for that they had already where they were. but solely that they might be in country to themselves, where they could preserve tho English blood. language end tradi- !. tions pure and unmixed for their pos terity. They would not that their sons should turn Dutchmen.
 Their ideal and that of New England to this day is distinctively English, but the New England ideal is unable to stamp itself upon all America. The contract is too big.
 The south developed a character en- tirely different. In the south were Flu guenots of the best blood of France, and Englishmen of the cavalier and aristocratic stamp. Climate, social in stitutions and different strains of blood made the northern and southern natures almost opposite. These two natures came together i'll tremendous clash dur ing the civil war. Then trey forgave each other and worked toge her. Since then and only since then Inc general national American type has begun to bo developed.
 Electricity is the symbol and stamp Of tho American. He is somewhat like an Englishman and 0 Frenchman min gled in one. It is proved that the true American who results from the proper blending of |. the northern and southern characteristics "resists and overcomes fa- tigue, disease and wounds more readily than any other person can" He is quick, kindly and brotherly. The United States IS now reaching far and wide for the commercial dominion which she will ob tain, but not in the English or northern way, by the extermination of savages and the seizing of their lands. I've will give the world better things to eat and wear and moro of them than any other nation can. We will demonstrate that 1t is to the mutual interest of nations to be decent, forbearing, social and in time even kind" The American unites in himself the blood of the civilized races; therefore he will feel brotherly to all mankind. The countenance of our na- ton shines today with light which is tho dawn of higher America"

The Now York Sun discusses the ques- tion of what would happen if in re- sponse to angry demands from the un- ionists Queen Victoria should dismiss Mr. Gladstone from the prime minister ship and call on Salisbury to form gov ernment for the purpose of immediately calling new parliamentary elections on the home rule issue. The Sun finds that British sovereign has dismissed min ister three times in the past century. The last time this was done by Queen Vic toria herself in an indirect way in lS30, soon after coming to the throne. The prime minister, Sir Robert Peel, demand ed that she should dismiss the Whig Ia, dies of the bedchaIpter. She refused, and ho resigned. While it is undoubt- edly the sovereign's prerogative under the British constitution to dismiss prime minister at will, yet such has been the growth of democratic sentiment since the American republic was founded that the British people would not be likely now to submit to it.

Long May the Corn Tassei Wave:

Tho corn crop of 1893 is advanced enough to predict approximately what it Is going to be. The prospect Is that, with the single exception of the extraor. dinary yield of 1891, it will be the largest ever produced in this country. Both the acreage and tho average condition up to present dates are ahead of last year. In Colorado and some of the southern states the condition is not up to that of the same date in 1901, but in other states it is above the average.
 In crib, silo and fodder stack 1t will be housed to make beef and pork and cornbread for the nation. With the growing knowledge of how good and how cheap it is and the added lesson on this topic taught to foreigners at the Worlds fair, few months more will see 0 share of our greatest crop also moving in vast bulk across the Atlantic, sending back gratefully in return stream Of gold. Blessed be corn! It will fatten pocketboo,;s e5 well as pork. It is both beautiful and gcod. Hail to our national flower, the corn tassel! It was an in- spiration that made Edna Dean Proctor write:
 The roso may bloom for England,
 The lily for France unfold;
 Ireland may honor the shamrock,
 Scotland her thistle bold.
 But the shield of the great republic, d The glory of the west, %
 Shall bear stalk of the tasseled corn,
 Of all our wealth tho best!
 The Grbutus and the goldenrod
 Tho heart of the north may chetE,
 And the mountain laurel tor Maryland
 Its royal clusters rear:
 The jasmine and magnolia
 The crest of the south adorn,
 But the wido republics emblem
 Is tho bounteous golden corn.

Freaks of Figures.

If any ordinary business man was
asked to state how much Is one thou
sand, one hundred and one dozen, he
would most likely reply, without any
hesitation, one thousand one hun
dred and twelve Q,112). He might,
without violating the customs Of the
country, put the figures at l,OS5 or
1888. A dozen is commonly sup
posed to be twelve single things. A
bakers dozen is thirteen. A dozen
of cotton yarn is just one "hank, 1"
composed Of twelve cuts" A dozen
of fish in some localities is twenty
six, and a dozen of pottery in the
wholesale trade may mean two or 1t
may mean fifty pieces, not depending
on the actual number of pieces, but
on the size, weight, ETC., Of the jugs,
bowls, plates, etc.
A printers 900 is only 900, but it
takes /, 200 slaves to make / 900 in
some sizes that are made for export.
In many Of the trades the terms
dozen" hundred" and Thousand"
do not bear their literal English
meaning, but technical one peculiar
to each trade, as in stone work, lath,
shingles and cotton yarns. This
technical perversion Of plain English
extends to most Of our weights and
measures. Thus a gallon may be 231
cubic inches or it may be 265. In the
school arithmetics four quarts make
a gallon, eight gallons make a bushel,
but in practice it takes forty quarts
to make a bushel OF corn, beans, etc.
That is because only the liquid
measure quart cup 1921 cubic inches
to the GALLON Is in use, while the dry
measure gallon contains 265 cubic
inches.

Tho Number of Languages.

The least learned are aware that
there are many languages in the
world, but the actual number is
probably beyond the dreams of ordl-
nary people, The geographer Balbi
enumerated $50, which are entitled
to be considered as distinct languages,
and 5000 which may be regarded as
dialects.
Adulguns, another modern writer
on this subject, reckons up 1864
languages and dialects existing, and
which have existed. Even after we
have allowed either of these as the
number of languages, we must ac-
knowledge the existence of almost
infinite minor diverslties; for almost
every province has a tongue more OF
less peculiar, and this we may well
believe to be the case throughout the
world at large.
1t is said there are are little islands,
lying close together in the South Sea,
the inhabitants OF which do not I'M
derstand each other.
OF the $50 distinct languages emu
merated by Balbi, SO belong to Eu-
rope, ia to Africa, 1913 to Asia, All
to America, III to Oceanica-by
which term he distinguishes the vast
number Of islands stretching between
HindOstan and South America.

Hard Cider a TIendIsh TIpnlo.

The man who sells cider doesn't
have to get a government license or
purchase revenue stamps; all he
needs is keg Of the fluid and a dip
per and he is ready to scatter desola-
tion and pave the avenues to drunk
ards graves at the rate of 5 cents a
drink. The cider that is sold Is some
times sweet and innocent, but gener-
ally it is hard" as Il door-knob and a
small quantity of it will cause a man
to imagine himself a lion tanner in a
striped uniform and lead him to elope
with his grandmother. There is no
liquor in the entire category which
will compare with hard clder it oc-
cupies a sphere peculiarly it's own;
its lasting qualities are wonderful. II
you get intoxicated on it in early
manhood you may sober up in old age,
but the chances are that you won't
The headache that follows its use is
enough to make the heather rage and
the wlcken imagine vain things.
Something should be done to contract
the powers of the dealer in hard
cider. In his cheerful, offhand way
he is setting traps for the feet of the
young and pitfalls for the unwary.
1t might be possible to urge him to
soften his cider without hurting his
feelings. Washington News.

possession Of the nest and contents.
In about an hour the swallow re-
turned to the barn, bearing in It's
mouth bunch Of something resem-
bling long horse hairs. The bird went
directly and nolselessly to its nest,
threw itself on the back Of the spar
row, and before that astonished bird
had recovered from the shock caused
by the sudden and violent return Of
its vanquished foe, the swallow put
a horse-hair moose around the spar
rows neck, and somehow fastened
the other end Of the lasso to the
nest or to the rafter. The sparrow
soon choked to death on its unex-
pected gallows, where it hung for
several days.

quickly, do not hesitate to shoot that

Ralph again raised his pistols and
asked:
What is tho order OF Untilla2"
Il command that Uncas, no longer
chief Of tho Montauks, lie down on the
floor

said Ralph.
A glance told tho chief that this was
no idle threat, 80 he shot out another
oath and obeyed "a

CROPPED under the bed and drew there
from bundle Of rope and an old net,

Ralph Denham watched, while the
two women, with wonderful skill and
rapidity, fastened the ropes about this
unrighteous Samson.
With the captains assistance they
lifted tho chief to the cot and arranged
the scarlet uniform under his head and
shoulders.
Not knowing when she might be
called on to exercise her skill, Dlnah
always went provided with herbs and
rude surgical appliances. With much
skill she dressed the chiefs wounded
hand, whispered In an ironlcal way that
he mustn't move about much, and then
telling him that she, would call pro-
fessionally in the morning, she wished
him refreshing sleep and pleasant
dreams, and turning TO Untilla and
Ralph asked them IL they were ready to
leave.
While Dinah WIGS dressing the
wounded mans hand, Untllla gave
Ralph the disguise which the Squire had
sent, helped him to assume 1t, and, at
the same time gave careful report OF
what had happened at Squire COndlt's-
They were about to leave the hut,
when Dinah stopped suddenly and said:
Them ez loss blood hez q unger fob
watah."
From under the cot she drew an
earthen pot and went out. She soon
came back with the vessel full of water,
and raising the chiefs head she made
him drink, then she laid the pot within
reach.
They covered the fire with ashes,
closed the door behind them, and start
ed for Squire Condlt's.
Mrs. Condit and Ellen though quite
prepared for Ralph's return, could not
keep back their surprise at seeing him.
They kissed him many times, and in
accordance with the Squirrels strict Or
ders, they insisted on taking him to his
own room.
He wanted light, but as Squire Con-
dit had given orders to have no light
burning there, they refused.

he had always called him by that name.
He has gone for Valentine and MIR.

At that moment the Squirrels step and
