Origin of the Forget-Me-Not.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat
When Eve. condemned and banished
From Eden, turned to tiy.
She wandered through its gardens,
To blu her flowers good-oy.
But the lily, chaste and spotless,
Tossed aside her naughty head;
And the Queenly roses, blUshing
For her shame, from white turned redl
And the pOppy's scarlet blossoms
darker crimson grew;
And en- the violet. shrinking,
From her pollution drew.
With heavy heart. aud saddened
She left them, dumb with shame,
When, as she neared the portal,
She heard one call her name.
And there, small blue flower
That clustered rouIlI the spot,
Cried, as she passed its dwelling;
Dear Eve, forget me not
Eve heard the kindly greeting,
Then stopped. and ciutched 10 fast;
And 10 her lips she pressed it,
AS through the gate she passed.
And thus. of all the flowers
that loom meath earthly skies,
The Forget-me-not' alone can claim
Descent from Paradise.

harping on Free Sugar.

It is remarkable that so eminent man
as Gov. Mckinley endeavors to misIead
the people. If he is sincere in advocating
the tariff that bears his name he ought
not TO resort to misleading statements
and arguments in order to sustain his po-
sition
In a recent speech he said: E'No demo-
cratic orator or editor, certainly in the
north, ever so much as limited that the
boon of free sugar was to be taken from
the people The great public was not
taken into this conference. 1t was not
advised of it. 1t was not in the demo-
cratic platform. 1t was not announced
in any democratic newspaper"
In the foregoing Gov. Mckinley practi-
cally asserts that under the Mckinley
tariff the people had free sugar. But did
they2 1t is true that raw sugar was ad e.
mitted free of duty, but the people do not
buy raw sugar. They buy refined sugar,
and the Mckinley tariff taxed refined
sugar go cents a hundred pounds That
tarid also gave a bounty of cents a
pound TO sugar growers of this country.
The amount of that bounty last year was
about Sl20Oo,O 900, and this year it would
have amounted to 100000, 900, which the
government will not have to pay, 10 all
probability. Who paid this bounty of 2
cents pound2 Did not the people pay
1t? If they paid the bounty of 2 cents a
pound on all domestic sugar and GO cents
hundred pounds. on all refined sugar,
did they have free sugar. They Ger.
tainly did not. Gov. Mckinley knows
they did not, and proper respect for
the truth should prevent him from as
sertinq they did

The speeches of the populists on the
stump consist almost entirely of denuncia-
tions of the democracy and of vague
charges of fraud and the reconciliation
of robbery. However, the speeches are
merely characteristic. The populist
party's genius is pre-eminently one of
destruction and villi6cation. 1t attempts
TO tear down, but never makes any pre-
tensions to building up. 1t was conceived
in hard times, was born waiting woe, and
lives on calamity.

date or orator for glory, shown where, by
populist success, the state government
of Georgia could be improved, or the
taxes reduced So far from reducing
taxes, they say they want to spend some
thing like S1.OOO,0O0 for free school books,
and tax the people to pay for them Free
school books are very desirable to those
who pay no taxes; but the taxpayers
the people who support the state govern
ment--are already sufficiently burdened.

The boiling sugar planters Of Louisiana
are noe having things their own way, as
they probably thought they would. They
probably had an idea that when they de-
clared for republicanism they would be
permitted to dictate republican congress
sional nominations. But, according to
the Picayuue, the Louisiana republicans
are decidedly opposed to permitting the
planters TO control the party organization
or dictate the nominations. The plant
ers will have to take their chances
along with other republicans, or put
up independent candidates of their own.
The planters would like to work with the
the national republican organi alton and
ignore the state organization, but that
they will not be permitted to do. If they
would sleep unuer the republican coyerlet
they must he down with Cufy.

There seems to be considerable doubt
as to where Senator John P. Jones of
Nevada is lat, " in a political sense. The
populists have been cOngrdJulating them
selves upon having landed. him in their
party, and it really looked to the rest of
the country as if Jones had become a
populist. But it appears that there is
question about it. Since the state repub-
lican committee of Nevada the other day
fagellated Mr.. Jones and rubbed salt on
bis sores, some of his friends, according
to the Philadelphia Press, have come for
ward with the explanation that Jones
has not Joined the DoDulists, although he
has severed his connection with the re-
publicans.
Senator Jones' letter of Aug. 90, an
nouncing his withdrawal from the Re-
publican party was ambiguous with
respect to his future Affiliations. He said {:
Il shall henceiorth vote for and act with
that party that brings this overmaster-
ing issue to the front, the "overm aster-
ing ISSUE" of course, being the unlimited
free coinage of silver at the present ratio
lnasmuch as the populist party is the
only national political organization that
demands in its platform the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver at 16 to l, the in
ference, very naturally, was that Senator
Jones had gone, with his colleague. Stew
art, to that party. The Senator's friends,
already referred to, say that it is 1.-The
silver party, OF Nevada" that he will
henceforward vote for and act with, and
the Philadelphia Press suspects that
these friends are talking with Senator
Jooes' consent.
But what about this "silver party, of
| Nevada2" Is it the outcome of the
! Denver silver convention of 1892, which
adopted part of the republican platform
and the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at 10 to as its articles of faith
Is there really a new party in the west3
Win this new party of protection and free
silver-the Jones party-amount to any
! thing9
Meanwhile the popllists are to be
pitied. Not only have they missed big
recruit that they were counting on to
! fight their battles, but it seems they are

NOT A WINK OF SLEEP.


Bicy cIIsts Ride of Over Three
Days Without Taking Any Rest.
One of the great record breakers"
has set all his compeers at defiance,
says the London Lancet, by the truly
marvellous effort Of cycling from the
Lands End to John o Greats in eighty
six hours, fifteen minutes-that is, rire
hours and forty minutes quicker than
the safety record, We are Informed
that he experienced little fatigue, and
that to all appearances he was not
in any way injured by his success;
but the most rena rkable part of this
act is included in the fact that he er-
formed the task without indulging in
one moment of sleep. He was three
days, fourteen hours and fifteen min
utes without reclining once or resting
or ceasing his active movement of pro-
pulsion, except for the very briefest mo-
ments. We know from the best ex-
perimental proofs that the healthy
heart will beat 100000 times in the
twenty-four hours, and that the low
est estimate of the work done by this
labor Is equal to lifting 122 tons one
foot, but it has recently been shown
that cycling tells severely and specially
upon the circulation, and that the num-
Der of the strokes of the heart is
doubled during such active exercise as
that to which the rider subjected HIM
self, so that the lowest estimate we
can assume for the work of his heart
each day was 212, 900 beats, with work
done of 244 foot tons; and this, main
tanned for three days and fourteen
hours and fifteen minutes, was equal
to more than S54 foot tons without re-
pose. The experiment, for it must be
looked upon physiologically as an ex-
pertinent, is not without its uses. 1t

there is something in persistent motion

term ''sleep" is applied. The practical

A Handy style OF norr.,vv

A deep wheelbarrow is more useful
than one built ON the old plan, because
1t will hold more, and the work of
building such barrow is not much
greater. Any one WHO owns a wheel
and irons belonging to an old wheel
barrow can easily construct one by
first procuring two stout pieces for the
shafts and mortising them together
firmly just behind the wheel The next
mortise must come two inches from
the ground oA the legs at A. From
this mQrtise the floor of the barrow
must reach forward to B, where it is
supported by two false legs mortised
into the shafts and aching within two
inches of the ground. The sides may
be solid from the floor up, or if prefer
red, they may extend only to the top
of the shafts, and from this point NOV
able sideboards may extend upward.
The only disadvantage in having the
body solid is being forced to remove
most of the load from between the
handles. This wheelbarrow is especial
ly useful in carting leaves, etc, and in
handling heavy stones, which are load.

PRESIDENTS FROM FARMS.

Ten Chief Rulers of This Country
Selected From Rural Homes.
Ten presidents Of the United States
we're called from farms, says the For
nm.
/. Washington, the land Surveyor and
farmer, from Mount Vernon.
2. John Adams of Quincy, who, dur
ing the last year of his presidency,
said: II am weary. worn and Disguised
to death. 1 had rather chop wood, dig
bitches, make fences upon my poor lit
tie farm. Alas! poor farm, and poorer
family, what have you lost that your
country might be freer'
3. Jefferson, farmer, philosopher, and
stateman, from Monticello.
4. Madison, farmer and lawyer, of
Montpelier, Va.
5. Monroe, farmer, from Oak Hill,
Va.
6. John Quincy Adams from the
Quincy farm of 100 acres, near Boston.
cit is said that most Of the trees were
raised by John Quincy Adams from the
seeds which he was in the habit of pick
ing up in his wanderings. The most
peculiar interest attaches to a she'll
bark hickory which he planted more
than fifty years previous to his death.
In this tree he took a peculiar salts
faction, but he was an enthusiast in
regard to all the trees of the forest,
differing in this respect from his father,
who was an agriculturist of the Cato
stamp-was more inclined to lay the
ak to them to propagate them.'0
7. Andrew Jackson of the Hermit
age'' in Tennessee, who, as farmer,
soldier and lawyer, was a most excel
lent type of the best Americanism.
8. Van Buren, of Undertook, N. Y,
was called to the presidency from his
sheen and wool farm, although he was
q lawyer of far above average require
ments and ability.
8. William Henry Harrison from his
farm at North Bend, Ohio.
TO- Tyler of Sherwood Forest farm,
Virginia, where he subsequently died.
IL. James X. Polk of Duck River,
Tenn, also came from the farm TO the
presidency.
This selection of presidents from rul-
raj homes, from among the farms of
the country, illustrates the fact that in
those days there was no profession or
calling which held a more exalted posi-
ton in public estimation than that Of
agriculture.

unless he had good information, and
