The development here inffty-fve years
Is almost incredible-would be absolutely
so If we did not know it was the era
Of perfect credit and free trade. It is
nothing to what ours would be in a cor
responding period If we ceased threaten
ing to pay dollars with ffty-nine cent
silver coins, amended our laws so as to
allow all men free use Of their property
In securing credit, and permitted free
trade with all the world as men may
wish and see 1t 10 their interests to trade.
But in taking this gratifying view Of
Englands power It will not do 10 over
look Frances tremendous armament.

At the rate silver is now falling. our
silver dollar will soon have an intrinsic
value OF only about fifty cents. II is
worth but ffty-eight and three-fourth
cents now. and is still falling. So long as
this condition Of affairs lasts and the
Sherman law is in operation monetary
strngency Is unavoidable. as people will
be afraid to lend their money lest they
get 1t back in derased currency. Only
Congress can correct the evil.

have done this because they know that

would give the people Of the State a

The Genuine and the Sham.

Every good thing he's its host of imi-
tators; every genuine article its counter
feits. The imitstGrs always choose the
most valuable and popular article to
counterfeit, so that when they claim their
sham to be equal, or as good, or the same
as ''So-and>So's," the public may depend
upon it that "So-snd-Ses" article is the
best of the kind. The sham proves the
genuine merit of the thing it copies, and
never has this been better illustrated than
By the limitations of Allcock's porous
plasters.
Allcock's porous plaster is the standard
of excellence The world over, and its i'm
itstors in their cry that theirs is "as good
as Allcock's" are only emphasizing this
fact and admitting "Allccck's" to be the
acme Of perfection, which it is their
highest ambition to initiate. The differ,
ence between the genuine and these imi>
tstions, which copy only general appear
ance, is as wide as that between copper
and gold.
The only safe way for purchasers is to
always insist upon having Allcock's por-
Gus plasters. They are the only perfect
plssters ever produced.

The Virtues of Saffron.

To the virtues of saffron whole volumes
have been devoted, references to some of the
more important Of which are given in
Canon Ellacombe's PLANT Lore and Garden
Craft of Shakespeare" where there is a
long article on the subject. The plant was
chiefly used for diseases OF the lungs,
whence came its title Of Anima polmonum;
for assisting the eruption Of measles,
smallpox, etc. lin measles it is still occa,
sionally prescribed); as cardiac and gen
eral stimulant, and as digestive and
strengthened of the stomach. To this last
(supposed) virtue its use in meats" is due.
Lyle says that SO taken it "comforteth the
stomacke and causeth good digestion, and
sodden in wine it preserveth from dronken,
nesse" 1t was also used as love philtre
and still enters largely into some popular
recipes for making up" horses.
The most extravagant notions Of its
powers were formerly held, and some old
writers went SO far as to term it the king
of vegetables. Even so late as the middle
of the last century it held prominent
place in our official dispensatories, but il
has now come to be used only as a coloring
and fiavoring agent, being incidentally al
most inert, its property (such as it is) being
mildly stimulative.-Notesa and Queries.

HARVEST ON THE MASH.
| 4 Charming Picture OF New England
| Life That Requires Distance.

Harvesting the hay on the salt marshes
OF the New England shore is picturesque
and pleasing occupation at q distance
The mowers. the men pitching hay on
the wagons or scows, or building it into
great ricks perched on saddles, the wide
sweep of the meadows threaded here and
there with the CLEAN of winding creeks,
the wheeling of white Eulls overhead, the
low hills of the inland horizon, and to the
eastward the irregular rolling line of a
yange of sand dunes O" the broad blue OF
the sea-all these unite to make a charm
ing and poetic picture.
But it is a picture that needs distance.
Close at hand it is seen that the labor is
very hard, the men hot and weary, the sun
blazing down with terri fic force upon the
shadeless expanse. Often, too, the pest of
the greenheads and gnsts is so great that
the harvesters wear wells over their heads
and mittens on their hands as they work.
Nevertheless, in the ole colonial day, hay
ing on the marshes had it's compensations.
It's close was marked by local ceremonies
of Harvest Home, fOrerunnerS Of Thanks
giving, from which indct Il it was little diff
ferent. In this, as in all other celebrations,
eating and drinking hello foremost place.
1t did not seem to them unsuitable that
the women Oh Their HOuSt' tiOitiS uuIlilea VIC
dog days should be hang ng over hot ovens
and toiing in pantries, preparing dozens
of mincepies, mountains of ready cooked
meat, jars full of cookies and doughnuts
and long rows of Ioaves o. cake, the richer
and spicier the more Creditable to the
housekeeper which provided it.
Much of this task was accomplished be
fore the departure of The men, as the
greater part of the provisions were to be
packed for the mash" for them to take.
During the two or three days while they
were actually hayin& the women had com
parative leisure and often took the time to
make round of neighborhood calls, but on
the final return, boating day." as it was
often called, they were again on hand to
share both the labor and he fcstivity.
The hay was flOated in great flat gun
delows" up the creeks to the nearest posi-
BILE point where it was wanted, then carted
home in triumphal procession. Then the
men, who had done full justice already 40
the provisions carried with them, were
quite ready to sit down to the harvest sup
per, for which fresh array of good things,
even more solid, richer and more indigesti-
BILE than those previously consumed, had
been provided.
Truly, if our New En- gland ancestors
were gallant workers, they were no less
valiant trencher men.-YOuth's Compan-
ion.
