NEW YORK. June 3O.-There was
decided improvement on the tone of
Wall streets markets to-day. Although
money at intervals ruled ct high rates,
the fact that the clearing house banks
had announced their intention to take
out all loan certificates necessary to
prevent acute stringency in the money
market did much to retain confidence.
The bears renewed their raids upon the
market at times during the day. but
such decline brought in buying orders
and sharp advances ensued
The lowest figures touched showed
losses varying from Il to III per cent
from final quotations of yesterday. The
announcement that the General Electric
Company had declared the usual
quarterly dividend of 9 per cent, al
though it has been perslstently stated
for some time that the rate would be
q or less, had good effect. The direc.
tors of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western declared the usual quarterly
dividend OF q per cent. and Cleveland,
Colum bus, Chicago and st. Louis an
nounced dividend OF ~ per cent. on
common.
simultaneously with this news came
the reports OF gold engagements In Lon

ONE SOURCE OF EVIL.

Lives of Children VIII BE Largely Nodded
by What Is Expected of Them.
Thinking well of a person is one of
the best aids that can be given him to
lead him on toward well-doing. One
reason why there are SO many bad boys
in the world is because the phrase bad
boy'' has so rooted itself in the popular
thought toward all boys. A child of
five years not long ago shrewdly OBJ
served: people don't know that lit
tie children are good, unless they keep
them Why, mamma, people always
think children are bad until they live
with them; then they find out they
they can be good. A child
even at that early age, had seen enough
of the world to know that the prevail
ing disposition is to take it for granted
that a child can have no spontaneous
promptings to right, no noble aspira-
tons to goodness, no praiseworthy mo-
tives to action. And yet she knew that
upon fair trial, without prejudice, the
world might reverse its hard judgment.
The rule applies through all ages and
conditions. One reason why so many
ax-convicts are untrustworthy is be-
cause they know that no one trusts
them; bad boys are bad because they
are taught that badness is necessary
constituent of boyhood. Children and
men find it easier to do evil when evil
s expected of them. Conversely, they
find it easier to do good when good is
looked for in them.-S. S. Times.

Endurance ?
4 Revelation Which will ASt0niSh M0S1
People.
And Yet 1t Is in Reality of Every Day Dc
currence.

The following communication is from
one of our correspondents, Mrs. Carrie E.
Martin, lady well known and highly re-
spected and who occupies position of the
highest social distinction in West Leyden,
Mass. Her experience is of such nature
and its Importance to many is SO great
and far-reaching, that we give it to our
readers in her own words.
Last summer / was all run down, had
chills no appetite, very little sleep nights
and none days, faint spells, trembling feel
ings and was SO weak could hardly walk
around the room / continued to run
down in health and strength until l feared
utter nervous prostration with its untold
miseries.
II sent for our town physician and he
came good many times. l soon had to
give up work entirely, still his medicines
did me no good l tried to ride out one
morning, but went only few rods and
had to come home My husband then
went to church, leaving me with the hired
help and my children. Such terrible
day as / spent tongue can never describe.
l could scarcely get from the couch to a
chair.
when my husband came in from
church l told him was worse and that
would die if did not get help soon; that
l would not take any more of doctors
medicine but try DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, if he thought
best.
HE advised me to try it and went inn
mediately and got a bottle, which began
to take: up to this time we knew nothing
of its value except as we had seen it ad

BIG PRAIRIEs IN MANITOBA.
One Thousand Miles OF Level Land Lies
Straight West of Winnipeg.

One Thousand Miles OF Level Land Lies
Straight West OF winnipeg.
''If the horse could stand it, said a
well-known resident of Winnipeg, Man
itoba, to a Washington Star reporter,
"a man could leave Winnipeg and ride
one thousand miles west and northwest
over a level prairie before he would be
obstructed by the mountains. This
gives an idea of the great territory lying
west of Winnipeg, which, to the eastern
man, seems way out of the world. The
soil of this prairie produces the finest
spring wheat grown anywhere and this
enormous plain I've just mentioned will
in few years be the great granary of
world. Eastern people have misty
idea of our expansive territory. We are
just commencing to grow wheat com
pared to decade hence, though our
crop two years ago was thirty million
bushels. We have but little snow, and
the many years / resided In Manitoba
never saw the tops of the bright prairie
grass covered Cattle fairly roll in fat
and we are becoming great cattle
country. While most of our settlers
are from across the water, yet the num-
her from the western states Is yearly in
creasing. We have no wild west from
tier scenes. There are no settlers killed
over disputed claims, as has been an
everyday story In the west for years.
Our homestead laws require three
years residence of six months each.
Land may be preempted, too. Gold has
been discovered in wonderfully rich
quartz deposits few miles east of
Winnipeg, and paying mills have Just
been erected by Minneapolis capitalists.

There are more thinge to be learn

There are more things to be learn
ed about paint than are dreamed of In
your philosophy. One thing you will
easily believe, the cheapest is not the
best. This applies with equal force to
everything put on the market, yet some
people think it does not matter when ap-
piled to paint. 1t costs more money,
time and labor to make good paint than
to make bad. That is why the good is
higher priced. and also why it gives great
er satisfaction, and does more and better
work. By these points are the Chiffon
Paints known. Regarded from the stand
point of value they are really the cheap
est paints, because two coats will COM
pletely cover where it will often take
three of any other, because you get full
gallon and not nine-tenths of one, and be-
cause if put on dry surface it will last for
years and years. Ask any one who has
ever used Chiffon Paints and see what
they say. Address Chiffon Paint Co.,
New York or Boston.

a WONDERFUL PROPHECY

st Was Uttered BY Priscilla Cadwallader
In Regard to the Slavery Question.
Priscilla Cadwallader, Quakeress,
delivered the following remarkable
prophecy in what was then known as
civilians New Barn." at Leesburg,

1880. Part of it has already ''come to

letter, we mag expect America to be a
NEGRO republic or despotism in the
near future. Here is the prophecy"
verbatim:
And the signs of the times
are ominous on the subject, and the
period is Fastening on when, as the
waters of the great deep In billowy
surges roll together and the conflicting
elements contend in wide uproar, so
shall the nations roll one against the
other; and the various religious sects,
in support of their different views, will
clash together for victory, and great
will be the devastation. And this aw-
full commotion, commencing in foreign
lands, will extend to our shores and
pervade North America Then we
will see the horsemen rushing forth
to battle and hear the sword clashing
against sword in deadly conflict and
garments rolled up in blood And the
sons of many who are now in this build
ing will be dragged to the field of bat
tie, and the bodies of multitudes will
weller In blood, exposed to the sun
until the very birds of the air pick the
flesh from their bonesi We
will not then contend with brother or
sister about our different views on
religion, but all in common will seek
safety, but no refuge will be found ex-
Dept in God. That will be great time
of trembling and CONSERVATION through
out the length and breadth of the land,
for the voices of the oppressed have
assembled on hight The sons
of Africa will break their chains and
assert their freedom, and finally, when
they hold the reins of this government.
