A Chicago paper says that there are
in Chicago at least 5000 places in the
manufacturing district where working
men are in the habit of going for liquor.
These saloons are purposely placed near
the factories so as the more easily absorb
the mems wages. If each one of these
saloons took in $40 day the sum would
amount to $4,000 day, Of $500, 900 for a
Week of six daYS.

spend Literally While Your Childre
Ara Growing up.

Spend Literally While Your Children
Are Growing Up.
1t is often a problem with parents
whether it is better to save for the chill
dren or TO spend for them; whether the
wiser way is to live very frugally and
plainly, keeping watchful eye on every
expenditure in order that fortune may
accrue by the time the little ones are
grown, that land may be added TO land
and house TO house, so that the father.
when it comes to making his last will
and testament, may have something to
leave and distribute among his heirs, or,
on the other hand, whether judicious
investment of means all the way on is not
really the better thing for the children.
- In the one case lessons OF selt-denial
and thrift are certainly instilled - the
boys and girls learn the value OF money;
sometimes they learn to look upon money
as tho only good rather than as tie means
TO an end. In the other case they are
surrounded by beautiful things during
the period when impressions are most
readily taken. and when character ls
nodded and the style of the future man
and woman formed for life.
One thing may be set down as absolute,
without exception - there is not only
folly, but lack OF integrity, in dellber-
ately living beyond One's means, and
children who are brought up in home
where they see little care for the payment
of just debts promptly and fully are in
great danger OF becoming themselves dis
honest. Granting, however, that the par
ents have a sufficient income to pay their
way without too much anxiety, it would
seem that the truer economy of life would
be to spend freely rather than grudg-
ingly.
A beautiful environment helps to mold
character. Children who grow up in a
home in which they are used to elegance
and refinement absorb these qualities
from the atmosphere. If the mother has
sufficient help in doing her work to ena-
bic her to give much of herself to the
children, the children are the gamers.
Contact with books and pictures is in
itself elevating. 1t is good thing to live
in house where books abound, even if
one does little more than become familiar
with their bindings, and the chances are
that in a house where books multiply
there will be a good deal of household
reading. Every fine engraving helps to
form the child's love of art. Music and
musical instruments assist in producing
that gentleness and sweetness which go
far to oil the machinery of living.
Upon the whole they are wise who dis
count the future and SOW largely and lib
orally in the sunshiny present. What
ever may be taken from children amid
the chances and changes the years may
bring, the pleasures which are freely
given them while they are growing up
become part and parcel of life and
thought, and never can be taken away
Harper's Bazaar.

TO Fight Public Opinion.

Ws hear great deal at the present day
about mandates" and mandate seems to
be regarded not simply as declaration of
the will of majority which must, in
point of fact, be obeyed, but as the official
utterRnce of an infallible church which
cannot, in point of logic, be erroneous.
Now, confess that | have always had a
weakness for the faithful Abdiel. I be-
lieye that man is often doing invaluable
services who resists the dominant cur
rent of opinion, who denounces fallacies
when they are growing and fourishing,
and points out that revolution in belief,
even though it be inevitable for the time,
and even though it contain an element of
right reason, may yet contain errors and
hasty judgments and deviations from the
true line of progress. which require ex-
posure the more unsparing In proportion
to their temporary popularity.
Is not the ordinary journalists frame of
mind singalarly unfavorable to his dis
charge OF this function? And is it not
inevitable that this should be so as long
as the Journalists only aim is to gain
side he takes. He denounces some new
doctrine, but only in the name of the cur
rent prejudices which it happens TO shock.
He advocates it. but only because it is the
last new fashion of the day. In either
case. he falls into the ordinary party vice
of imagining that his opponents must be
fools or knaves, that their opinions are
directly inspired by the devil or judicial
blindness inflicted by Providence, SIM
ply because he will not take the trouble
TO understand them.
The man who would try to raise him.
self above the position of the mere pander
to passing antipathies must widen his in
tellectual horizon. He must qualify him.
self to take broad views; he must learn
that his little list of commonplaces do not
represent real thought. but is often the
embodiment of mere prejudice. or, per-
haps, the deposit of words left by think
ers Of past generations; he must learn to
do more than merely dish them up with
a new sauce; he must concentrate his
abilities upon definite problems, consider
how they have arisen, and what is their
relation to the past and the future.-Les-
lie Stephens in the National Review.

Japanese Gardens.

During a great part of the year the gar
dens of teahouses and temples have but
few blooms-they are only an arrange
ment of green's and grays-but in the
spring no amount of clipping and train
ing can prevent the shrubs from blos-
somiug. The cherry trees and magno-
lias are let grow as they choose, bat the
others are trimmed into more or less
formal shapes. considered suitable to the
species, or helping the carefully studied
arrangement OF forms, which is the ideal
of Japanese gardener. There are no
beds for flowers. In the little ponds the
irises and lotus bloom, and in odd corners
there may be clumps of lilies, ohrysan-
NUNS, or other plants, but these are
mere accidents; the Designers aim is a
composition of rocks, shrubs, stone lant-
erns, ponds and bridges, which will look
the same in it's general features all the
year round and conform to established
rules. One OF my Japanese friends told
me, as an instance OF the cOmplexity of
the landscape gardeners art, that if GER
tain shrub were used 1t would be neces-
sary to place near it a stone from Tosa,
