it is shown that the $50 900, 900 Of

Our population was SO, 74S, 600. That
gave them a per capita circulation, in
1865, of $67 726; and we then enjoyed
the most prosperous period this coun-
try has ever seen. The lands were
free from mortgages and everybody
was making money. Now, according
to Mr.. Horr, we have $25 PER capita,
while we really have but $4.97: and
the land is covered with mortgages
aud millions of honest toilers are liv-
ing on charity; while suicides, MUIR
ders and crimes of all kind fill the ma
tion with horror.
Look at these figures:

There you have the whole story of the
wrctched misgovernment of the coun-
try by the political party for which
you are making speeches;-a misgov-
ernment, in the interest Of money
lenders and foreign capitalists; q mis-.
government which has given us 80, 900
millionaires and four or five million
paupers.
Shame, shame on you, Mr.. Horr, to
use the genius God has given you for
the perpetuation of such conditions,
and the ultimate destruction of your

was conscious that every woman Of

was trimmed with, but her conscience
whispered to her that she had done

ship.
''Sweet are the uses Of adversely"
but it takes philosopher to see it
while the storm is on. After it is over,
and the sun of prosperity is again shin
ing serenely anyone may see it.
Shakespeare, philosopher as well as
poet, knew this when he put these
words into the mouth of his spokes-
man. Jacques:
Sweet are the uses of adversely,
Which, like the toad. ugly and venomous,
Wears yet q precious jewel in its head;
And this our life exempt from public haunt,
Finds tongues In trees. books in running brooks.
Sermons in stones and good in every thing"
Here is philosophy. and if you will
take the trouble to study it we'll you
may find a great deal of comfort in it
You will learn that everything has its
uses, and he that abuses them suffers
most.
Has it ever occurred to you that it is
your friends? While you are in health
and in wealth you have friends on
every hand, but when in adversely you
stand almost alone. The few that re-
main are worth more than the whole
vanished train.
Then. when adversely overtakes your
friends, the genuineness OF your friend
ship is put to the test. Thus you are
made acquainted with your real self,
besides showing the quality of your
mettle to others
Friends come; they are not bought.
This is happily expressed by western
poet:
ATby friend Will come to thee unsought,
With nothing can his love be bought,
His soul thine own will know at sight
With him thy heart can speak outright
Greet him nobly. love him well.
Show HIM where your best thought Is dwell
Trust him greatly end for aye:
true friend comes but once your way"

"Well, papa" said Emma, ut is just
this. Mime. Farine says I need ten
yards of trimming at four dollars a
yard. The dress is half finished, and
really money goes SO! There were other
things to get I'm ashamed to ask, but

than ever!''
Emma Rome slipped the roll Of notes
into her purse with feeling that 1t
was dearly bought; but fate has placed
SO many women in the condition of
beggars, and it is SO customary to do as
Emma did, that she almost wondered
at the little pang which shot through
her heart Besides, her father seemed
to forget the matter soon, and she
knew that he was called r1ch-that,
actually, forty dollars was but small
sum for him. So, breakfast over and

known as down town." she dressed
herself becomingly and started on her
shopping expedition. On the way
thoughts of her new dress ran through
her mind. She intended to wear it on
an occasion which to her seemed very
important. Some one was to be present
whose opinion she valued-some one
she herself admired very much Did
he admire her?
She had asked herself the question
over and over again. She had even
pulled away the petals of Marguerite
one by one, counting them as they fell,
with the words: 'He loves me-loves
me not" And there were to be many
pretty girls present, and she was not
vain. Oh, she must look as we'll as
possible!
Thus absorbed, she suddenly found
herself several blocks below her des-
tination. There was nothing for it but
to walk back, and the way lay through
streets filed with miserable tenement
houses. Emma hurried along until,
all at once, she found a sort of barri-
cade across the street. The middle OBJ
ject of this barricade was a sewing-ma-
chine, to which on one side chung a
woman, on the other man. The wom-
an was crying; the tears splashed down
on her hands. An attendant crowd of
residents contemplated this scene with
evident interest, and Emma became,
perforce, one of their number.
Scarcely ever in her life before had
Emma Rome been in close contact with
