FOR ALL-FOOLS' DAY.
A Luncheon for Tho Merry First Day
of April"

OF april.
Two young girls. to whom the word
fun" embraces all that IS worth living
for, gave a luncheon to their companions
on the 1st Of last April, writes Mrs
Burton Kingsland in "A Trio OF Pretty
Luncheons" IN the April Ladies' Home
Journal.
The invitations read: Come. catch
folly as II flies at l o'clock, April LIST"
TO which one girl replied:
Fools rush in where angels fear to
tread" and another. Where ignorance
is bliss It's folly to be wise
The guests. half expecting a hoax,
found the decorations Of the table were
intended TO symbolic the day. In its
centre was a large FOOLS cap OF yellow
satin, with narrow yellow ribbons crisis
crossed around it, to which were at
tached little round bells-the badge Of
office" of fools and testers.
The name-cards were I'm the form OF
fishes: the fish is. in France, the type
and expression OF the customs of the
1st OF April As we use the term April

alusion to the fact that they are easily

nict a wanton and malicious injury upon
another. And, what one man may not
rightfully do. no combination OF men
can do. To illustrate: A Is a prosperous
hat merchant on Broad street. has q
perfect right 10 open n hat store right by
his side and sell hats in competition with
A, and. II possible. to take AS business
away from him. even II II ruins A. And.
as he may do this by himself, he may
associate with him as many partners
in the enterprise as he disires to have.
This is where Il is bona side seeking to
benefit himself by becoming successful
hat merchant. But. II Il hates In MS
heart and opens the competing store, not
that he desires TO become a successful
hat merchant. but to ruin man against
whom he has malice in his heart. the law
condemns his act as unlawful. and, as
one man may not do this. so no combina-
ton OF men can.
The question to be determined in all
cases. therefore, is. What is the intention
of the parties? IL they are simply doing
in concert what one man may rightfully
do by himself, and their purpose and
intention is a good one. their acts are law
full, even IL other parties do suffer loss
and damage thereby. But. II they have
confederated together 10 do acts with a
malicious purpose in their minds, those
acts will be unlawful. although they
would be perfectly proper II done with
good intent. When this distinction is
kept steadily before the mind there is no
difficulty In dealing with any given case.
When II is lost sight OF confusion and
revolution commence.

Our Financial Troubles and Their Remedy

Our Financial Troubles and Their Remedy.
The present condition Of financial at
fairs in the United States and the rene
dies therefor:
With the balance OF trade against us
and gold going out of the country. with
proftless agriculture, with the inability
OF the banks to supply their customers
with money, with many great railroad
systems in the hands Of receivers. surely
it is time when people should seriously
consider the causes for these conditions.
The leading questions that have re-
Gently agitated the country are:
A protective tariff versus free trade;
a gold basis versus free coinage Of sill
yer; national banks versus State banks.
1t is unquestionably true that the high
tariff rates have materially increased the
cost of our railroads and the cost OF liv-
ing in this country. 1t is natural for
people to buy where prices are lowest
and sell where they are highest. Our
people cannot do this without free trade
with the rest of the world. nor can they
successfully compete with the nations
that do enjoy free trade.
II we had free trade all classes would
enjoy the advantage Of buying most OF
their supplies at lower prices; but be-
yond all others. that justly complaining
individual, the farmer. would be bene-
flied. Buying his supplies at lower
prices. and with the markets of the world
OPEN to his farm products. he would get

is fuller of spring beauty to-day

rators are nonpluSsed by the guam

all too little space to display it
creditably. Speaking of store deco
ration, we've simply led in that as
in every other feature of this great
business and our skill and ability
is acknowledged in the order we've
received for the entire decorating
of the Armory for the Memorial
Bazaar.
We've found a bank where the
wild thyme grows, and despite the
greatest Easter millinery business
in our history we've gotten ready

The failures for the first quarter OF the
year. as reported by Bradstreet's, should
have a reassuring effect upon general
trade, particularly in the South, which
shows a large decrease. The failures
throughout the United States for the first
three months OF 1893 are smaller in num-
Der than they have been for eleven years,
with exception Of 1889. The feature in
the failures so far this year has been that
they were for large amounts. But, says
Bradstreets, those larger failures were
widely separated geographically. and there
is little reason for inference that an IN
sound condition Of credits or undue pres
sure in distribution OF merchandise ex-
lists. The falling off in the number OF
failures during the past quarter as com
pared with three months in 1892 is con-
spicuous in the Middle and Southern
States, although there was a slight de-
crease in the New England States"
The congregation Of St. Marks are
making earnest objection to the First
street extension OF the electric railway
We think the railway extension is a mat
ter Of great public interest, and should be
encouraged, but the Council should give
careful attention to the representations
of the congregation, and see II the re-
ouirements OF the railway cannot be met
without disturbing worshippers.
