The New York Post calls attention to the
marked difference between the strikes of the
various branches OF the clothing trades, in
which over 10000 men and women have
been engaged, and other great strikes, in the
consumption of intoxicating liquors. Most
OF the clothiers are Russian Jews, who ara
habitual abstainers and have not as a rule
resorted TO any stronger drinks than soda
water and lemonade In the stress and temp
tations Of the strike; hence universal peace
fulness has prevailed among them.

A LUXURY AT BEST.

The money spent for liquor is not spent
for necessary or even a useful article OF
human diet Liquor, in its most iunocuous
use, IS but a luxury. There is no repro.
ductiveness in the expenditure which II en-.

the outlay. Those vast sums are as thrown

A Costly Autograph,

When Adelina Patti favors anyone
nowadays with her autograph, she
writes it at the extreme top of a sheet
of paper. Her reason for this is that
once when she signed it in the middle
of the sheet, it was subsequently
coupled by the recipient with the sig.
nifieant sentence, "I promise to pay
at sight the sum elO00," and pre-.
sented at her bankers. New York

KEEP STOCK OFF NEWLY SEEDED LAND.
When the established pasture fields
during fall present burned appear
ance, it takes considerable will power
to resist the temptation to turn stock
on to the newly seeded fields in which
the young clover and timothy present
an inviting appearance, but the pas
turing of of this new growth close to
the ground will cause the whole plant
to perish if drouth prevails. The pas
turing off of this fine top growth
should be avoided, and it is just this
mat that is required to protect the
roots during the severe cold of winter,
and when frozen solid this growth of
leaves and stalks pressed close to the
ground prevents the daily spring
thawing and freezing, such as would
be the case were this covering pas
tured of. The Top growth is not lost,
but as the spring growth progresses it
decays and is added to the fertility of
the land.-American Agriculturist.
