This invaluable qualityis never more appar-
ent in man or woman than when shown in his
or her choice of periodical reading matter. First
in order should come the Local Newspaper, SO

with seasonable Editorials on current topics.
No one can get along without his home paper.
The newspaper should be supplemented by some

1t was in an 'sL'' train and baby

car changed from Indifference to pity,
then to annoyance, and finally to
New York Recorder, a man two or three
seats from the crying child leaned
2yer and snapped his fingers quickly.
The effect was magical. The child
stopped in the middle of yell, and
gazed open eyed and open mouthed at
the man. He snapped his fingers sew
eral times, then, accompanying them
with grotesqucly cheerful smiles and a
peculiar shake of his head which
seemed to highly interest the cross
cherub and appeal to his sense of
humor. for a wavering little smile
crept around the corners of the droop-
ing mouth and the cries ceased for
good. The man leaned back in his
seat, bestowing occasional cheerful
winks and smiles at the vanquished
foe.
He reaped his reward. The old fell

macy enough to make u prime minis

friendly recognition over the tops of

A novel method of cultivating the fac
ulty of observation in children has been
introduced by Philadelphia klndergar-
ten teacher. She tells her pupils that
she is about to have call from some one
who will remain only three minutes !;
that no one must directly stare at him,
but that the pupil who gives the best
description of him after his departure
will receive prize. The other day her
father, Grand Army veteran in uni
form, performed the part of caller, and
some of the personal descriptions
after he had bowed himself out denoted
unusually quick and accurate attention
to detail. One boy had counted all his
buttons and gave the number correctly,
another noticed an almost invisible scar
on his face, and various others gave de-
tails of the color and shape of his beard,
hair and uniform. The one who re-
ceived the prize was little girl, who
declared he had ':an expression on his

The Bland silver coinage bill has
finally passed the house. If it runs the
gauntlet of the senate, it will yet have
to be signed by the president, an event
considered doubtful. The bill proposes
to utilize at once, for the purpose of
meeting emergencies in public expendi-
lures, the silver bullion which is now IN
the treasury as gain or seigniorage. The
amount of this gain or seigniorage in the
treasury is now $50, 10000 Silver GER
tificates are to be issued at once for this
amount, and redeemed with this silver
as fast as it is coined. It will increase
the circulation by that amount. On the
gold certificate system, this amount
could be more than trebled. The gold
reserve of 800, ZOO, 900 is intended to be
adequate for the redemption of $780,
O0O, 900 of greenbacks. In addition to
the $55 ,0O0, 900 of bullion there is yet a
large surplus of coined silver certificates
besides this. There are AIS, 100000 of
silver dollars coined altogether, and
only about $685., ,OOO,OOO of certificates
issued. The Bland bill, then, increases
our circulating medium, while the bill is
also circulated to make silver stand on
its own footing.

HIS OWN BANKER.
A Hoosier's Great Wealth OF Always
Ready Cash.

Ready Cash.
A landowner and cattle-raiser in
Warren county, Ind, died recently.
He had large tract of land devoted
exclusively to grazing, and his sales of
cattle every year ran up to scores of
thousands of dollars. Much of this
money during the latter years of his
life he invested in more land He
bought farms, cleared them of their
buildings, and turned them into hay
fields and pasture-ground.. His trans
actions, says the Cincinnati Pimes-
Star, We're always conducted on cash
basis. Where he kept his money was
a mystery. At the time of his death
he had about eight thousand acres of
land, ranging in value from tl1irty-fve
dollars to one hundred dollars an acre.
He had been living alone on farm
about two miles from the county Seat.
When on his death-bed with his chill
dren, who were all grown up and mar
ried, surrounding him, he said to them
that they would be surprised when
they opened the safe, a small affair
which was in the room. When it was
opened after the funeral it was found
to contain one hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars. That was his bank. He
had kept his money in the little safe in
his house. two miles in the country,
and had had large sums there for
years. Imagine what an easy prey
this would have been to handful of
burglars. Two or three men could
have taken it any night without the
slightest trouble. But he kept his se-
cret we'll.
