There is one part of personal culture
which receives very little consideration,
1 e., the direction and guidance OF
fnougflts. The habits we acquire, the
form or neglect, the Temptations we re-
siSll or yield to. the words we speak and
rne Hnl1uences we exert are matters up
on which We are often urged to be vigil
ant; but the thoughts and nlag1nings
which pass through, the mind are SELDOM
brought up for Scrutiny .--P Philadelphia

Tommy, Morgan has met with anoth-
er defeat. The National Federation of
Labor an session at Denver has declined
to adopt his platform in favor of state
socialism. The defeat viii not, however,
serve to danpen Mr.. Morgan's ardor in
the advocacy Of his pet doctrines. on
the contrary, he gathers fresh courage
from every reverse. AS a matter OF tact
he does not want his principles to be
adopted as part of the governing ntad SyS-
tenn. If they should be his occupation as
a n agitaitor would be gone and NE would
not know what TO do with himself .-e'nl-

darlning than when Captain Creeden, IN

Advocates of the Nicaragua canal can
draw the happiest auguries of its fnan-
cial success from the Suez enterprise. A
quarter of a century ago De LessepS
could find no purchasers for Suez STOCK
in England. Now founders shares which
then Brought on the market scarcely $3.50
a piece, are quoted ait $250,00 an increase
of 1000 per cent. And the Nlcaragua
canal has even more favorable condl-
4ions. s3fo1, it would be a waterway not
only for a large part of the worlds for; r;
eign commerce, but it could scarcely faal
to develop a domestic traffic between our
own Atlantic and Pacific states, which
i'm tlhe end would be still more prottable
and important.-Boston journal.
