A movement is on foot in England
to celebrate the sixth centenary of the
British Parliament, which will be
rounded out this summer. It was in
1895 that Parliament first assembled
on the basis from which has grown the
form of the present assembly.

Twenty years ago the persons of the
Emperor and Empress of Japan were
sacred; they were seen by none save
high court officials, and even to these
the Emperor's face must be yelled.
The Empress now visits the free hos
pital of Toxic, and talks or gives
presents to the patients as freely as in
any Western land.

Farmers will naturally be interested
to learn how great is the competition

cure our American farm products, for
the latest statistics show our exports
for the seven months ending January
81, 1895. In comparing these with
the corresponding months year
earlier we have the following:

EXPORTS OF FARM PRODUCTS.
Seven Months, July to January 31.

Farmers can see that, during the
seven months ending January 81, 1898,
we sold nearly $4,000, 900 bushels less
food stuff to foreign countries than
we did during the seven months end
ing January 81, 1894, and also ], ,0oO,-
900 barrels Of flour less. 1t is easy to
imagine how the buyers in the foreign
markets of the world are fighting
among themselves to secure this small
quantity of our products. which Is
only about one-half OF what We sold
them before the wall of protection
was broken down in order that we
could reach their markets. And the
worst of it is, too, thai they are only
buying the smaller quantity a. lowec
prices than they used co pay for the
larger quantities which they bought
from us under protection.

"There goes old Ike Stilwell I" remarked Job Cot
tie, the Csbinet-maker, to group of men and boys
in front Of his shop, as he pointed to arrogant
looking old man on the opposite side Of the street.
"I was raised up good Presbyterian; but he has
undermined some of my faith. What's the use tell
ing me that folks are to be punished in the next
world for the mesnness they've done hereP Why
for the purpose of tormenting old Ike Stlwel for his
deViltry done in the body the preachers say the
hottest kind of hell you could set sgong would be
nothing but fresh breeze off an iceberg" And
the sentiment seemed to meet with the general sp-
probation Of Jobs auditors who gared after the
retresting subject of his sultry remarks.
Isaac StilWell, of Worcester thus irreVerently al
luded to as Old Ike StilWell,' was at that time
1786-one Of the richest men in Massachusetts. Av-
sricious, and secretly Tory, he had not been so
foolish during the Revolution as to desert his bust
ness and forego the comforts of life to join the army
undergo hardships and incur the risk Of getting
killed in a conflict over so intangible thing as a
mere principle He had found it far safer, much
easier, and great deal more profitable to stay at
home and improve the opportunities which the war
gave him of increasing his already ample fortune.
So, while the debssed common herd were neglect
ing their farms and fighting and getting mutilated or
killedfor mere sentiment which would not bring
them single dollar, Isaac StilWell-in the eyes of
political economy, nobler kind of hero o-WsS in
various ways engaged in audabe efforts to increase
"the national wealth." With this patriotic object
in view he had when the public treasury was de-
pressed and the treasurer more so, bought up-at
very liberal discount, of course as became political
economy patriot-s a large number of claims againt
the government, including the pay of officers and
soldiers and when the war was over, had contriVed
to get these claims at their full face value with in
terest, made first charge upon the only revenues
Of which the government was sure. Pursuing the
same noble ambition to increase the national wealth
he had purchased at nominal prices thousands of
acres OF public lands when in the dark days Of the
Revolution, they had to be sold in order to provide
means for carrying on the war; and when peace
and independence had come, and the courts had
again been got into good working order, the msgnan-
imous patriot still sctuated doubt, by the same
lofty purpose foreclosed scores Of mortgages upon
