No business is more quickly affected
by tightening up of financial matters
than that of journalism. The amounts
due are usually snail, widely scattered,
and so, very many people reason that
the little they owe is not needed; thus,
the first thing publisher knows IS
that the small amounts aggregate
thousands of dollars. Think Of this,
friends, and play fair with your home
newspaper. -EX.
The Bicycle Works of our city shipped
a carload of bicycles to Philadelphia,
Pa, Tuesday of this week. The car
was properly mounted with large
streamers announcing the Smalley BIZ
cycle as the best on earth to the people
of the different states who will read the
truth as the car flies by them toward
its eastern destination. The factory is
securing large orders and are working
to its utmost capacity to meet the great
demand. n finely constructed wheel,
one that is thoroughly reliable, like the
ones made in Plymouth, is bound to

In the War Cry, the official organ of
the Salvation Army, is published Satur-
day last, an extended account of cash
barrel Jimmie" the first known convert
of the Salvation Army. Jimmie had
quite an eventful career both in and
out of Jail before his conversion, and
lived to see many of his former diss0lute
comrades brought to lead better lives.
We have always had great respect for
the Salvation Army, and have seen
great good done by this small body of
heroic followers of the Nazarene, and
although they make 'power" of noise,
the majority of them have their hearts
in the right place.
Brother Endley, of the WalkertOn In
dependent, pertinently asks: where do
you get your letter heads and envelopes

pertinent question. Why don't you
know that there are scores of sO-called
business men who buy few dollars
worth of goods in the city and secure a
thousand note heads with the order
OF course you do. Then you will find
another class of these people who are
relics of the antediluvian period, who
will buy tablets that cost Sl.75 to 50 q
thousand and use them in preference t.
giving the printer $3.50 for thousand
of just as good stock with their bushes:
neatly printed upon them. Why, my
dear boy, the world has any number OF
that kind of business men. But w,
have some satisfaction. They are dying
off, glory hallelujah! New blood, new
enterprise, hustling, upto-date young

Certificates of Membership in High
binders Societies Secured.
The arrest Of Chinese known as
Mar Tan in San Francisco has brought
to light documents such as have
never been unearthed before in this
city. Mar Tan had for long time
been recognized as Chinese "capper"
for number of police court practi-
TONERS. In his pockets were the
names and addresses of numbe of
prominent merchants of San Fran
cisco.
Among Tan's effects were two
pieces of cloth on which are Chinese
characters. These being transla ted
prove that Tan belongs to Highbind-
err societies. One of thes, reads:
Gee Hing Co., received from Hing
Sun on account of Mar Tan SO, hav-
ing been paid to the co mpany. He is
entlt ed to be a memb err of the Hung
Kar. tradition. anarchist secret as

The second certificate reads:

ceived of Mar Tan the sum of 81. He
is entitled to be member of the
Hung Sun society. In the year of
Tin Won calendar secret society, of
the fourth month, lucky day.
There are some sec ret society char
acters on the certific at es that cannot
! be translated. Never before have
the Highbinders' documents fallen
into the hands of the police. An ef-
fort is being made to have the pris-
oner deported under the law by
which criminals may be sent back to
their native land. These documents
prove the mans standing as Grim

The edge is not only unmilled but is so irregular that the piece seems to have been originally hammered flat and without any other preparation, stamped. The ortho- graphy of the word Massachusetts," ap- pears to have been as accidental as the shape of the coin.
 MT. Dyer purchased the coin several years ago from the collection of a Canadian banker. He paid $l0 for it and has frequently been offered twice as much.

EXPLOSION BY MUSIC.
Vibration of G String of Bass VioI E1
 plodes Iodide of Nitrogen.

Vibration of G String of a Bass Viol Ex-
 plodes Iodide of Nitrogen.
 One of the most dangerous of all ex- plosives is black powder called iodide of nitrogen. When it is dry the slight est touch will often cause it to explode with great violence.
 There appears to be certain rate of vibration which the compound cannot resist. In experiments to determine the cause of its excessive explosiveness some damp iodide of nitrogen was rubbed on the strings of bass viol. It is known, says Youths Companion, that the strings of such an instrument will vibrate when those of similar in- strument, having an equal tension, are played upon.
 In this case after the explosive had become thoroughly dry upon the strings, another bass viol was brought near, and strings were sounded. At a certain note the iodide on the pre- pared instrument exploded
 It was found that the explosion oc- cured only when a rate of vibration of sixty per second was communicated to the prepared strings. Vibration of the C string caused an explosion, while that of the E string had no effect.

CURIOSITIES OF COMMERC

CURlOSlTiES OF COMMERCE. Chinamen Use Big Cargoes of Twine in
 Their Cues.
 Two or three curiosities of commerce are mentioned in the report of the commissioner of customs at Canton. Woolen goods, says the New York Journal of Commerce, are not much in demand in that latitide, but ''woolen cord is now very largely used by the natives here for plating into their cues, and the importations of this arti- cle are steadily increasing" The i'm port of kerosene oil at Canton in- creased from three million gallons in 1888 to more than nine million five hundred thousand gallons in 1891. It is peddled on the street. The empty cans serve great variety of uses. The domestic servant delights in them as convenient and all-embracing recepta- cles, and readily fashions them into handy utensils for daily use. They are converted into lamps, boxes, toys for children, and all sorts of domestic articles. Flattened and pieced to- gether one sees them generally used in conjunction with the usual mating as coverings for boats and sheds. They supply the packing tins in which lard and ginger are exported. ''The tinware sent from here to the northern ports consists largely of lamps, boxes and various small articles made of old kero- sene tins and ornamented with lacquer Varnish." Evidently the shipment of oil to China in bulk is an expedient of doubtful value

THE WISDOM OF BUDDHA.

To the sinful nan sin appears sweet as
honey. He looks upon 1t as pleasant 30
long as 1t bears 40 fruit, but when its fruit
ripens then he looks upon it rs sin.
By oneself evil is done; by oneself one
suffers; by oneself evil is left undone; by
oneself one is purified. Purity and i'm
purity belong to oneself no INT can purify
another.
He who gives himself to vanity and
does not give himself to meditation, for
getting the real aim of life and grasping
Mt pleasure, will in time envy him who
has exerted himself in meditation.
The fault of others is easily perceived,
but that of oneself is difficult to perceive.
A man winnows his neighbours faults like
chaff. but his own fault he hides, as u
cheat hides the false die from the gambler.
Let no man ever take into consideration
whether a thing is pleasant or unpleasant.
The love of pleasure begets grief, and the
dread Of pain causes fear. He who is free
from the love of pleasure and the dread of
pain knows neither grief nor fear.

Shirt waists of white india silk are worn
with skirts of all colors.
A handsome summer hat is Of rough
straw braid, with trimming Of wide satin
ribbon, with violets and leaves.
A novelty in neckwear Is a narrow vel
vet collar, with small bows, and very long
ends Of velvet ribbon from the back of the
neck.
Dainty and stylish dresses of challie, in
dia silk or light figured woolens are made
with Jokes OF embroidery, full pulled
sleeves and embroidered cuffs.
Lace ~1ounces, made in a sort of festoon
arrangement, are stylish for thin dresses.
White lace Topped up in scallops, with
bows Mt each corner or point, Is a popular
trimming.
Black lace capes over color are seen, but
are not thought as pretty and stylish as
those entirely lined with black. Brocaded
capes with deep lace ~fiouncing are dainty,
and some Of them have the figures outlined
In embroidery or jet.
Black lace dresses, while not In the
height Of fashion, are nevertheless always
tolerable, and some ladies make 1t u point
never to be without q good one. They
should be lined with silk, either black,
which Is much the best taste, or In colors
for specially dressy wear.
A stylish hat is made of the fancy chip
braid now SO popular. 1t Is slightly arohed
over the front and bent down at the sides
over the ears. The trimming is of large
loops OF dresden ribbon and velvet ribbon
alternating. One large bow is placed over
the front and loops and a twist fastened
around the orown.-New York Ledger.
