President Mckinley assured the coun-
try yesterday, In his Philadelphia speech,
that prosperity was on the way. So 1t
Is. It IS here to a certain degree. The
Republican Congress has don't all that
It dares to keep the silver agitation alive
the worst limit 1t can reach in the
wal of q protective tax'' has been indi-
Gated From these lowest depths the
businessmen of the country can begin to
build up such a structure of trade as is
Dosstble in a country whose foreign conn
neice IS crippled. and Its domestic indus
efy swaddled to suffocation.
OF course there is no possibility Of a
permanent era of prosperity with such a
tariff as the Aldrich-Dingley combination
are connecting. There is sure, however,
20 be q short lived boom, like the Nc
Kinley one, built up of economic faIlacies,
FICTITIOUS hopes, insane speculation and
nnscrupulous preying of shrewd scoun-
1rels upon the weak and gullible.
The boom will be on about the end Of
next 1t VIII last through 1899. In
1900 the fake enterprises will begin to dis
solve, al they did in 1892, and the DEM
orracy will come into power in 1900, just
In time to inherit again the disastrous
results o. four years of Republican rule.

Low Bees Gather Honey.

Bees gather honey by the aid of their
trunk Clover lip or "tongue, J"
which is used as an instrument for ex-
tracing tine nectar from flowers. The
tongue of bee is not as was once
thought to be the case, a tube through
which the juice is sucked, but is built
more after the fashion of fine broom
With this broom the bee brushes or laps
the honey or honey material from the
flowers, leaves, etc., and passes it down
groove in the upper surface of the
tongue to the mouth proper. From that
point the juice is conveyed through a
minute orifice into the ''first stomach, "
vulgarly called the "honey bag. The
"honey bag is real chemical labora-
tory, where, by some mysterious process
which has not yet been explained by
science, the juices are converted into
pure honey. When the chemical process
of Transforming their nectar into viscid
honey has been completed, the bee dis
gorges it into one of the cells made for
the purpose of receptacle.
For years the microscopists and the
entomologists have been studying the
bees laboratory, but its workings are
at present among the unexplained mys-
teries. st. Louis Republic.

The Afternoon Nap.

The frequency with which medical
men are asked whether it is harmful to
indulge in the afternoon nap is not,
perhaps, surprising for several reasons.
Most persons have had experience in
the seductive charms of the somnolence
which has followed the comfortable in
gestion of midday or evening meal.
The meal finished, the diner arranges
himself comfortably in ali armchair; it
may be he lights pipe or cigar, takes up
a newspaper and prepares to make the
most of the restful conditions of his
mind and body, But nature soon begins
to assert her sway. In time the eyelids
close, the head hegins to nod, the news
paper falls from the hands, the pipe, no
longer supported in the mouth, falls to
the floor, and the symptoms Of nap
are complete. Whether the winks be 40
or loo in number, the result is the same
IA short, sound sleep.
Then comes the question, Is it harm
full thus to fall asleep after meal? By
no means, for the very obvious reason
that the process is merely physiolog-
ical one, and as such, when it occurs, is
quite natural. When digestion is in
progress, nature has arranged that all
the available blood in the body shall be
collected in and about the digestive Or
gans. Consequently the blood supply to
the brain falls to low ebb, and thus
sleep is easily induced. On the other
hand, of course, physiologically, it is
wrong for brain work to be attempted

Bismarck and Boulanger.

A few years ago statesman of Eu-
ropean fame visited Bismarck at Fried
richsruh, and the two walked together
through the latter's plantation of exotic
pines and frs, of which both were col
lectors. The visitor improved lapse in
the conversation about oonifers to bring
up the then recent topic of Boulanger.
"Did Germany at the time really take
him seriously?'' he asked. And what
did you yourself think of the man?"
The chancellor, apparently in all
candor, replied that he knew very little
of the subject. ut is true that was in
Office at the time, )" he said. But just
then there was kind of beetle which
got in among these frs of mine and was
eating out the central shoots, and really
that worried me so that / scarcely paid
any attention at all to what Bonlanger
was doing"

Parliamentary Amenities.

III Michigan some years ago bill
was before the legislature to restore the
death penalty for the crime of murder,
Three of the ablest members of the
house made long speeches in favor of
the bill-so long as to be found weari-
some, especially by those who disagreed
with the opinions expressed. When the
third man had finished, a young mem
ber on the other side Of the chamber
rose and said very sarcastically:
''Mr. Speaker, rise TO question of
privilege. -
''The gentleman will state his ques-
tion Of privilege" said the speaker.
"Mr. Speaker, wish to inquire of
our friends Of the other side of the house
which they think is preferable-to be
hanged or to be talked to death?'
The question was greeted by applause
Then suddenly some one with very
loud voice said:
"Oh, we'll, if you're going to talk
we prefer 90 be hanged Youth y

Cite. Buried by Sand storms

Sven Hedin. tho Norwegian traveller,
has discovered on the north side of the
Kuen Lnn mountains, and in the edge
Of the great desert Of Gobi, the ruins Of
towns which he thinks were buried by
sand storms abont 900 years ago. The
largest town was nearly az miles long,
and canal connected it and the sur
rounding country with the Kerija river.
The houses had walls Of plated reeds,
covered with mud and then coated with
white plaster, and on these plaster walls
were we'll executed paintings Of men,
animals and flowers. Poplars, apricots
and plum trees had evidently hourished
there before the invasion of the sand. -

An Arctic Christmas.

The crew of AN arctic explorer had
great pleasure, one Christmas amid the
ice and snow, in teaching the little Es-
kimo children how to observe an Amer
ican Christmas. The queer little tots
had never heard of Christmas tree,
and Santa Claus was an unknown per-
sonage, The sailors were desperately
h1mesiok, until one of them. with little
ones of his own, happened to think of a
Christmas tree for the little, chubby Es-
kimos, with their round heads and soft,
dark eyes.
A real, live, green tree was, of course,
ont Of the question in that icy region
so the men gathered up the bones of
slaughtered walruees, bears whales and
ether creatures and tied them together
SO that they branched out in every direc-
tion.
When it came 80 candy, they could
rot get that, either; but instead they
made balls Of whale blubber, or fat, of
which the little fur wrapped Eskimo is
extremely fond, and these queer substi-
tNtes for caramels were tied on the
"tree' with colored cord. Bright beads
shining buttons, some brass headed
tacks and few other such remarkable
presents were also tied ON, and then
bits of lighted candles were stuck all
about, giving quite a festive air to the
Queerest Christmas tree that was prob
ably ever seen, But the Eskimo children
enjoyed it to wonderful degree, and
the homesiok sailors grew bright and
cheerful in giving them such a novel

The Baireuth Ido!atrx of Wagner.

AS affording an insight into the crit
ical methods Of the Baireuth circle, let
us take as a striking example one of the
most untiring of the bodyguard, Emer-
ich Kastner, who, as the compiler of a
Wagner catalogue-a catalogue of writ
ings and musical works by and upon
Richard Wagner-had acquired the rank
and title of great archivist of Wagne-
rian literature. Kastner introduced a
new, critical method, based on the num-
Der of beats and the metric measure and
began to measure out the works of Wag-
ner as one would stretch of roadway
or IA field, with the intention and con-
viction of discovering an unsupported
and highly important principle In art.
BY careful computation Kastner found
that "Rienzi" contained 8, $3.50 beats;
the Flying Dutchman, 4,434; "Tann-
hauser, i,S31; "Lohengrin, 5,l29;
the Meistersinger, 6,513. He then
announced, by means of demonstration
whose secret will remain eternally in
scrutable, that the life destiny and ar
tistic experiences of Wagner were re-
fiected in these dry numbers. In fact, he
went still farther and grouped together
the number Of beats in every single
scene from the operas Of the master,
continually calculating. adding and sub
tracing until he reached, through pure.
ly arithmetical methods, the establish.
ment of psychological laws.
This absurd sport, played by him with
figures and notes, many of his colleagues
pursued with the words, syllables, nay,
even the single letters, of Wagner's texts.
Thus literature was created whereby
mental criticism was to be replaced by
those mechanical instruments--the bal
ance, the microscope and the knife Of
the vivisector. All these researches,
prosecuted with much ardor, clearly
demonstrated to what degree artistic
views may be lowered through blind
idolatry. Herr Alexander Moszkowsk

One Of the most eminent of French
physicians, the late Dujardin- Beaumetz,
urged for years before his death that
persons Of light or feeble digestion
should not eat raw oysters, because they
contain a chemical which excites fer
mentation as soon as it comes i'll contact
with the gastric juice. Being an easy
carrier of germs too the oyster com
nunicates very readily any pathogenic
microbe which it may contain to the in;
testinal canal, and trouble begins at
once. Recent Investigations corroborate
the opinion of the French scientist and
may lead to the banishment of the hith-
erto esteemed raw oyster from the list
of convalescent dainties. 1t is already
an established fact that its nutritiye
qualities have been much oyerrated. -

third eye forms part of the pineai gland

Stories of Prentice.

George d. Prentice was a remarkably
candid man, illustration of which is
given in tine anecdotes which follow;
but these are only few of the hundreds
to be t4ld.
Once when coming out of public
building in Louisville he was about to
pass through double door which open
ed both ways. Like the sensible man he
was he started to push at the door half
on his right. A young man coming from
the opposite direction was pushing at
the same door, being his own left.
Prentice lost patience, and throwing
himself with all his might against the
door it flew open and the young man
went sprawling on the mosaic floor.
Assisting the youth to arise, Prentice
remarked: Take my advice. my son.
Keep to the right in your way through
life, and you'll never run against any
body but a blamed fool, and you needn't
apologize to him.
Will S. Hays, the famous Kentucky
song writer, was in the latter days of
the old journal river reporter for The
Democrat. Hays was a very sudden
young man, good hearted, jolly, witty,
but lacking somewhat in reverence, and
he had habit Of calling persons, even
old enough to be his grandfather, by
their given Names Visiting Prentice
one day as fellow poet, after some des-
ultory talk, Hays said:
81 suppose, George, you have seen
my last song"
Prentice looked up at Hays, who was
seated cross legged on Prentiee's table.
and with twinkle in his expressive
eyes quietly replied:
II hope SO, Bill"
Bill looked around for second or
two, as if something had tapped him,
and then slid down the baluster rail to
the front door. Chicago Times-Herald.
