Every boy wishes to succeed but lew
men are able to look back upon success
jul life. Why some boys are promoted
moro rapidly than some others is sug'
gested by this story, the writer OF which
is unknown to us.
"a new boy came into our office today,
sail a wholesale grocery merchant to his
wife at the supper table. "He was hired
by the firm al the request Of the senior
member, who thought the boy gave
promise OF good things. But | feel sure
that boy will be out OF the office in less
than a week
"What makes you think so?"
because the first thing he wanted TO
know was just exactly how much he was
expected to do"
Perhaps you Will change your mind
about him.
"Perhaps l shall" replied the mer-
Chant, "but don't think So
Three days later the business man said
to his wife About the boy you remember
l mentioned three or four days ago. Well,
he is the best boy that ever entered the
store
GLOW did you find that out?
Gin the easiest way in the world. The
first morning after the boy began work
he performed very faithfully and SYSTEM
aticaly the exact duties assigned, which
he had been so careful to have explained
to him. When he had finished, he came
to me and said Mr.. H., have finished
all that work. Now what can do?'
Il was greatly surprised, but l gave
him a little job OF work and forgot all
about him, until he came into my room
with the question, What next?' That
settled it ior me. He was the first boy
that ever entered our Office who was will

CELEBRATES HIS OWN FUNERAL

After Solemn Mass Over an Empty Coffin
All Adjourn to a Banquet.
An up to date disciple Of Charles V
of Spain has held at a village of the
Tonne department, in France, a kind
Of dress rehearsal Of his funeral while
yet in the land of the living. For the
past year gravediggers and masons had
been engaged in preparing the gentle
mans tomb, and he had surveyed the
work with loving care. When every
thing was ready, he had handsome
marble slab put up, with the date Of
his birth and the list Of his titles and
distinctions, winding up with the com
forting assurance that he had been a
good father and law abiding citizen"
inscribed thereon. On his ninety-fifth
birthday all his friends and acquaint-
ances We're invited to the rehearsal Of
his funeral. A solemn burial service
took place at the church, and his empty
coffin, placed under a catafalque and
surrounded with wax candles, received
an anticipatory blessing. To cheer up
his guests, whom this lugubrious cere-
mony must have somewhat depressed,
he then babe them repair to his house,
where a grand banquet took place, at
which the beadle, the choristers and
the priests who are to officiate at his
real funeral were present. Each guest
pledged his word in a bumper Of cham
payne that if he We're still living at the
time he would not fail to "assist" at
the funeral ceremony Of which the re.
hearsal had just been gone through.
The real event may not come off yet
awhile, for this imitator Of the famous
emperor is still quite hale and hearty
in spite Of his 95 summers. London

Among many interesting incidents con-
nected with the closing OF the saloons in
kittanning, Pa, leading merchant tells
the following:
y woman came into his store very
timidly. She was evidently unaccustomed
to trading.
"What can do for you?" inquired the
merchant.
Il want a pair OF shoes for little
girl"
"What NUMBER"
"She is twelve years Old"
"But what humber does she wear?'
81 DO not know"
but what number did she wear when
you bought the last pair for her.
"She never had pair in her life. You
see, sir, her father used to drink when
we had saloons; but now that they are
closed he doesn't drink any more, and
this morning he said to me Mother, l
want you to 90 up town today and get
sissy a pair OF shoes, for she never had a
pair in her liie.' l thought, sir, il l told
you how old she was, you would know
just what size to give me-"
Dit is pitiful that the children OF this
republic must be robbed Of shoes and
bread that a few idlers may be supported.
The man who gives his influence in favor
OF the saloons gives his sanction to this
cruel robbery. He says This idler may
have the privilege legally to take the hard
earnings OF this toiler, and debase him,
though his children 60 with bare feet"

OUR SENTIMENTS, TOO.

The people of America do not really
need even one article that cannot be
raise, made or produced in this country.
With a pair of sheep shears clip every
other country off and drop them into
the sea, and America can live and
thrive without them better than with
them. Give the people of this coun-
try an American system of money,
created by their " government, for
the use of the people here, and let it be
in such abundance that all who need
to hire money can obtain it from Amer
leans who have a surplus, and to loan
and thus let the entire sum Of interest
fall into American hands for use in
America" We are tired of ~fattening
the r~hinoceroses of the old world, whose
skins are thick with avarice and sell
fishness, and warty with the lust and
dirtiness of so-called royalty, and
whose horns are ripped into everything
American at every possible opportu
nifty, and who would unite to crush us.
except they have all they can do to
protect themselves against each other.
Sleep is a good thing, but Americans
should not sleep while being robbed

ATTE MPT TO BUNCO.

One Of the silly pieces of dema
goguery in the Wilson bill is the attempt
to catch the farmers by putting agri
cultural implements on the free list, as
if every farmer does not know that all
the reapers, mowers, plows, etc., that
are worth having or using are made in
this country. Neither England nor
Germany make the more expensive and
complicated forms of agricultural ma
chinery, for the reason that with their
cheap labor and small farms there is
very little sale for these. As for such
things Is plows, axes, hoes, rakes,
spades, etc., the American makes are
SO superior to those of England and
Germany that no farmer will use any
other Farmer.

CLASS LEGISLATION.

The EUemimg Star, Richmond's
brightest daily paper, recently said
w fail to see either sense or Justice
in %ridiculing farmers and denouncing
them as hayseeds, Communists, An
archists, etc, because of their advocacy
of the Sub Treasury scheme, when it is
considered all right for the govern
ment to loan millions to bankers when
aver they need money. In yester-
days Wall street report We are told
that Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury Curtis found that the concensus of
opinion of all the leading bank presi-
dents in New York, regardless of
party, was that the government should
be authorized to make them a short
time loan or loans to the extent of at
least $50, 900, 900. And bankers are the
loudest in denouncing the farmers
We confess we are ignorant; WE know
little of finance. But we are not such
a fool as to call this a government of
the people, when we know it is run
solely in the interests of banks, rail
roads, and other monopolies. To use a
vulgarism, the people are mot in it. {"

THEN AND NOW.

The Missouri World thus shows the
difference between farming and paying
debts in 1866 and 1898:
John Smith, q Kansas farmer, is
wrestling with a mortgage for 50, 500.
drawing interest at the rate of ten per
cent. per annum. Mrs. Smith buys the
groceries and clothing for the family
with butter, eggs chickens and garden
truck. Smith markets 5000 bushels of
corn at 20c. and 500 bushels of wheat
at 40c., and gets therefrom a total of
$500. He pays regular hand $3.50 for
the years work, $50 for extra work,
$40 taxes, 800 for absolutely necessary
incidental expenses, $3.50 interest; total
1920. Leaving $3.50 to apply on the
principal OF the mortgage, by denying
himself and family all luxuries. In
1866, a time of abundant money, the
5000 bushels of corn would have
brought him at least 81. 500; the 500
bushels of wheat, 81 1000. Total, So. 500.
His farm hand would have cost him
1850; extra labor 800, taxes $40. 5000
to keep up machinery and harness /:
$500 for incidental expenses and $3.50
for interest. Total, 81, $50. Leaving
1880 to apply on the principal of the
mortgage, by denying himself all lux
uries, This is the difference between
then and now. Should the people con
clude to restore good times by issuing
enough money to bring back the prices
of '66 and loan it at 2 per cent Mr.
Smith could pay 81, $50 on the principal
from one years crop, because he would
say $500 l interest. The second wear
wilma similar crop and he would knock
the mortgage sky-high and have about
$oOo LETT, with which to patronize the
business and labor world, and the third
year with a IKE crop, and neither in
SeIesG nor principal to pay, he would
have 81, 600 to use in MAKING times net

sHoRr COTTON eRoP.


Leading cotton men now estlmaGe
that the cotton crop for the year 1890
will only amount to about 5000 oOO
bales. This is far short of an everage
crop and less than was consumed every
wear heretofore. The surplus IN sight
is small. If there was enough money
among the people of the cotton raising
countries if they could supply their
pressing needs in the way of clothing.
cotton ought now, according to supply
and demand, bring at least fifteen
cents. But a gold standard crowd
