ANATIoN,s HEALTH.

EDS INDEX: Among the many theo-
ries advanced as a safe financial policy
fer government to pursue but very
few follow out their particular method
to safe conclusion. showing how the
various classes of society would be ben
Gifted thereby. Mr. Carlisle. Mr.
Jones and many others attempt to
show how an issue of bonds would
stimulate the business of the country,
but if either of the above named gen
tlemen were in debt TO Jerry Simpson
or some other man, their associates
would think they had gone stark
mad" if they were to give bill OF sale
on all they owned, and then to pay him
3 per cent and allow him to use their
credit and pay him per cent for the
amount OF their credit he used. Yet
this is just what they want the govern
ment to do, arguing that the govern
ment has no power TO issue money. If
that were the case what power has
gwen the national banks the right TO
issue money, and where does that pow
er get that right? The constitution is
the sole authority upon which money
Is coined and the value Is regulated by
| congress. Now for financial theory
! II every person that wants work could
always find employment at moderate
wages everything would be prosperous
/ Then why should not the government
furnish them employment by empow-
ering every township OF road Overseer
to give employment TO every one that is
willing, and their bills should be sub
mitted to the township board for set
tlement, the money for the payment OF
the same should be either gold, silver,
or any legal tender notes that the gen
eral government may appropriate for
said purpose. This measure would
start business of all kinds for as soon
as all labOrers are employed crime OF
all kinds is on the decrease and conf
dence Of the people is restored. Capt.
tai searches for profitable outlets and
improvements ere heard III all the land.
Whatever nation it may be that VIII
keep its laborers employed at fair re-
muneratiOn. that nation will be happy
and prosperous. Yours,

in series of games of crib
oage during six years played between
gentleman and his wife of Belfast.
In the last Sly years they have played
twelve thousand eight hundred games
together, and on recent evening they
were two games apart, that is, one had
lead of two games in the series, and
last week they were even games. At
no time during these years has either
one had lead of over seventy games,
and one evening the lady won thirteen
straight games Now after six years
of playing one is two games ahead. It
all shows that luck or chance at cards
evens things up in the long run.-Bel-

WHERE is THE GENTLE GIRL ?
HAS She Been Displaced by the Aggressive
Young Business Woman

HAS She Been Displaced by the Aggressive
Young Business Woman?
One hears and reads much about the
gentleman who viii keep his seat in a
crowded street car and will not spend
his vacation at the popular summer re-
sorts, but what has become of the gen.
tie girl? Where are those sweet, shy
creatures who used to wear lawn
dresses and Leghorn hats, who shrank
from anything approaching the com
spicuous, who ''spoke low and sweet"
who were taught that sarcasm was
rudeness, and that lady smiled but
never laughed? What has become of
blushing sixteen and all those dainty,
quiet young women who would rather
"be sweet" than smart? Has the gen.
tie girl gone with the 'shuzzy,'' the
work-basket and the tatting shuttle?
The business girl is too sharp to be
agreeable. Her motto seems to be to
suspect everybody all the time. She
has an I-knowwha t-you 're-up-to kind
of manner; she says ''How are you?"
when you come into her presence and
looks you straight in the eyes without
the glimmer of a smile or a trace of EN-.
barrassment. She bosses the Office boy
and charwoman, the services of the
janitor are commanded, not requested,
and life from her point of view is too
short to be wasted on po1iteness. The
girls who show the least consideration
for the saleswomen are the best Gus
toners; they have money but no man
ners. Perhaps nowhere is the incivility
and rudeness of our young women more

it makes little difference whether the
passengers come from college,, families

tricts. the faces are cross-looking, the
manner is aggressive, the voices are
shrill, the gaze is steady, and the gen.
tie girl is conspicuous by her absence.

GENIUS AND GREASE.
The Comparative Earnings OF Teachers
and Cooks,

HAe Comparative Earnings or Teachers
and Cooks.
A year or two ago there was printed
o list of questions concerning domestic
service in the United States, says the
New York Evening Post. They were
prepared by Miss Lucy Salmon, the
professor of history at Vassar college.
Among other interesting facts cleaned
from the answers to these questions
which have lately been made public are
these: By comparison made between
the wages received by teachers in the
public schools of Cambridge and cooks
in the neighboring city, Boston, it is
found that ffty-six per cent. of the
teachers in the former city earn $500 a
year. If the very small sum of 1888
were deducted for board for one year,
this would leave a balance of $685. for
clothing, travel, books, lectures,
charity, pew rent and the inevitable
rainy day.
The average wages of the Boston
cook are, according to 574 returns, 81. IS
weekly, or S231.4O. AS the cook has no
outlay for food, fuel, light, or laundry
expenses, it is estimated that this
added money value would amount to
S275, a nd bring her wages up 60 s506.40.
The difference in the amount of money
left the teacher after paying necessary
expenses, and that received by the
cook who has no such outgo would
therefore be only s103. The teacher
must dress better, as becomes her po-
sition; she must attend lectures, to
keep in touch with improved methods;
she is urged to subscribe from her pit
lance to journals of education and has
street car fare to pay daily in stormy
weather. BY comparing two of the
tables in the report it is seen that the
Boston cook is probably in possession
of more money at the end of the year
than the average teacher in Albany,
Atlanta, baltimore, New Orleans. Pat
erson, Rochester and Syracuse.

TO REMAININTACT.

The meeting OF the National Reform
Press Association at Kansas City was
a most harmonious and enthusiastic
one. Twas decided that the Omaha
platform should remain in force until
the next national convention. The
following committee report was unani-
mously adopted:
To the N. II, =. A. of theU 8.
Your committee, to whom was re-
ferred certain correspondence that has
come into the possession of the asso-
citation, have carefully considered the
same and beg to submit the following
report:
Flrst-We recognize no authority in
this association or elsewhere to change
or modify the Omaha platform until
another national representative con-
Vention, elected by the people, shall
assemble.
Secoud-We recognize the fact that
any one of the questions embodied in
that platform may be forced to the
front by the logic of events at different
times and under different circumstance
as and thereby claim priority of at
-tentiop5 and whenever this occurs 1t is
our duty as true Dopnlists to meet the
issue like men.
Third-We recognize the further fact
that the policy of the present admins
tration aud the attitude of members OF
Congress OF both old parties have
brought the money question in its var.
ious phases forward in such manner as
to make it the most prominent issue
of the hour. and the Reform Press asso.
citation has no desire or disposition tc
evade it.
Fourth-We recognizelno disposition
OF the members of this association tC
drift away from the principles of the
Omaha platform, but on the other
hand there has ever been united adj.
herence TO them, which is entitled to
the highest consideration.
Fifth-Manifestly our adversaries
would be immensely gratifed at any
want of harmony in our ranks. and we
do nos propose to afford them this sat
isfactIon.. We are proud to announce
that no schism exists in our ranks. On
the contrary. our members are united,
active and aggressive. We are con-
strained TO persevere in this policy be-
cause of the phenomenal growth of the
peoples party, which polied 100000
votes IN 1892 and oyer 100000 in 1894
THAT were cOuntedl, which can be at
tributed to no other course than that
of a plain, honest and unainching adj
vocacy of the Omaha platform in its
entirety.
