The National Holiday.

The only holiday that ex SITS in the
United States by statutory enactment
is Labor Day, which, during the
second session of the F'ifty-third Con-
gress, was made a holiday in the Dis
trict of Columbia. Congress has
frequently recognized the existence Of
others, but with this except n, has
made no statutory enactment on the
subject. On Washington's birthday
and on Decoration Lay Congress in
variably adjourns, "out of respect for
the illustrious dead" but not even the
Fourth OF July is recognized on our
National statutes as holiday. Nearly
all the States, however, have, through
their legislative bodies, recognized
the various common holidays as legal.

Under the Curb.

Doctor Weir Mitchell, lecturing to a
school of nurses lately upon the neces-
sity of self control in emergencies, told
the following incident:
One of his patients, while in low,
nervous condition, swallowed by mis-
take a dose from the wrong bottle.
She shrieked out that she was poisoned.
One of the nurses screamed, "Aconite"
and began to cry Historically. The
other nurse, seeing that the patient
was going into convulsions from ter
ror, when relief would be impossible,
said coolly:
"Don't be frightened. Loon here,"
taking mouthful of the dose herself
She then went outside to rid her
mouth of it, procured an emetic, and
sent for doctor and stomach pump.
Her calmness saved the life of the pa
tient.
A fire occurred in crowded theater
in Southern city last winter. A pa
per scene in the flies ignited and blazed
up in sight of the audience, who began
to shrek wildly, and to rush to the
doors. A woman behind the curtain
seized sheet of music, and coming
forward, bowed calmly, smiled, and be-
gan to sing.
Her steady voice and smiling face
convinced the panic-stricken mob that
there was no danger as no words could
have done. They stopped and settled
down quietly into their seats. A fatal
panic was checked by cool stroke of
ready wit.
Now self-control is not to be ac-
quired in moment of danger by a
strong desire for it, any more than we
can command skill in the use of a
sword when attacked. 1t comes
through training.
The woman who coolly sang with q
fire behind her and a frantic mob be-
fore was accustomed to control her
feelings in the presence of a crowd.
Doctor Mitchell in the same lecture
stated that he was once ON steamer
during frightful collision. Passen-
gers and crew were uncomfortable
with terror. The only persons who
remained calm were two educated
American gentlewomen. They were
probably no wiser, no more courageous.
nor devout than the others; but they
belonged to class taught from child
hood to repress emotion in public.
If you wish to be hero in great
emergency, practice heroism in self
control every day.-Youth's Compan-
ion.

Wanted to See the Disnatcber

Sir Robert Low, telling OF the diff
culties he had with the field telegraph
in the Chitral campaign, says the na-
tive chiefs were at first very distrust-
full of the wire. as they thought it was
a mark tor parceling out the country
among the soldiers; but on being told
that it was to send messages to the
seat Of government in India they
agreed TO guard it. After sew
eral days close watching they saw no
signs of any dispatches passing along,
SO they cut off a couple of miles
OF wire and took it away to watch
the messages more at their ease. Their
Investigations were interrupted by the
return of the engineers to see what
had happened to cut off communica-
tiOn.

A Perfect Fit Needed.

A well-known club woman the other
day went to her dress-maker to order
a gown. The woman asked at once:
Shall you wear it at club meetings."
The answer was in the affirmative.
'And to make speeches in?" was the
next question. Again she said yes.
"Then must have it trimmed accord

Wait for No Other Nation.

In conclusion permit me to say a word In
regard to international bimetallsm. We
are not opposed to an international agree
ment looking to the restoration of bimetal-
lism throughout the world. The advocates
of free coinage have on all occasions shown'
their willingness to cooperate with other
nations In the reinstatement of silver, but
they are not willing 70 await the plea sure Of
other governments when immediate relief Is
needed by the people of the United States.
We shall not offend other nations when we
declare the right Of the American people to
govern themselves and, without let or hn-
drance from without, decide upon every
question presented for their consideration.
In taking tliis position we simply maintain.

Its creditors. Honest differences of opinion
have always existed and ever will exist as
to the legislation best calculated to promote
the public veal: but when it Is seriously
asserted that this nation must bow to the
will of other nations and accept the policies
which they Insist upon, the right of self
government is assailed, and until that uues-
ton is settled all other questions are insig-
nhcant.

Farmers Opposed to Gold.

Our opponents sometimes admit that 1t was
a mistake to demOnetize silver. but insist
that we should submit to present conditions
rather than return TO the bimetallic system.
They err In supposing that we have reached
the end of the evil results of gold stand
ard; we have not reached the end. SO iong
as the scramble for gold continues prices
mist fall, and Il general fall In prices Is but
another defnition of hard times. The farm
ers are opposed to the gold standard because
they have felt its effects. Since they sell at
wholesale and buy at retail they have lost
more than they have gained by falling
prices, and, besides this. they have found
that certain fixed charges have not fallen at
creased, although it requires more of farm

Rights of the Debtor.

The right of the debtor to choose the coin
in which payment shall be made extends to
obligations due from the Government, as
well as to contracts between individuals A
Government obligation Is simply debt due
from all the people to one of the people. and
1t is impossible to justify a>policy n which
makes the interests of the one person who
holes the obligation superior to the rights of
the many who must be taxed to pay 1t.
When, prior to 1878, silver was Mt prem
ium, 1t was never contended that national
honor required the payment Of Government
obligations In silver, and the Matthews resO-
luton, adopted by Congress In 1875 express
ly asserted the right of the United States
to redeem coin obligations In standard silver
dollars, as well as In gold coin. Upon this
subject the Chicago platform reads:
