PODuIism in 17S6.

The spirit of agrarianism and discomfort
which now prevails to so considerable an
extent throughout the country is not new
thing From the close of the revolutionary
war until 17S7-SS the agricultural class, es
pecially in New England, were in very
much the same frame Of mind as are the
farmers CT some of the Western States to-
day. Their farms were heavily mortgaged,
they were deeply in debt and they had the
same real and imaginary grievances that
we hear about now. Then, as now, those
who imagined they had a grievance against
capital We're ready to adopt any foolish or
desperate remedy. One of the. mischiev--
Gus and dangerous leaders of that period
was Daniel Shays, of Massachusetts. He
had been a captain in the revolutionary
army and had in him some OF the elements
of a leader, but more of an agitator and
defer of law. He figures as the leading
character in Captain Shays, Populist
of 1886" by George r. Rivers. The scene
of the story is laid in Massachusetts, and
it deals with events of the period named,
following historical lines to a considerab BILE
extent Besides the interest of a well-writ-
ten story the book has historical interest
in it's pictures of the life of the period and
sketches of actual events. Boston: Little,

Jules CIaretie.

Jules Claretie, for many years connected
with the Coincide Francois, in Paris, was
"a student of actors In "Brichanteau,
Actor" he has drawn the actor who has
never been successful; who, when he has
once acted Hamlet, Ruy Bias or Louis XXI,
never after forgets that he has once trod
the boards as a hero or a king; who has
his own hero in the sculptor Montescure,
for whom he once posed as Roman pass
ing under the yoke" who sees the sadness
of the life of the girls of the stage in the
provinces, and yet who preserves his youth,
his Illusions, his innocent, natural affec-
tons and his good heart, even after he
is forced to become a starter in bicycle
races. ''Brichanteau" is d study which
only one who had passed his life among
actors could complete successfully. The
character has so much individuality that 1t
was probably drawn from life, or at least
built up on a foundation of the actual man.
The story has a strong flavor of French
theatrical life, and is written in style
that helps to maintain the interest. Bos-

Peculiar Crimes " hich Attack the Public
Health and Pocketbook.

| Isaac Platt and Otto Doerlan are at
present held to bail at Chicago, Ill, in
| the unusually high sum of $40, 500, after
staying for some time in jail in default
of sureties, on a charge OF counterfeiting
Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
The sum in which the district attorney
demanded bail shows the importance
which the tribunals attach to the offence
of coun terfeiting the medicine Of the
people. The condemnation at Syracuse,
y. Y, recently, OF the counterfeiter, DR..
Marauisee. TO "a term in states prison,
is another instance OF the same view.
The courts in these cases held that a
medicine having the confidence of the
people to an extent which can tempt to
dishonest limitation has attained an i'm
portance which renders the substitution
for il of unreliable and unauthorized
compounds an offence Of a very serious
nature, against which the people have a
right 70 be p. rejected. The proceedings
in court suggested that the people would
not have gotten INTO the way OF relying
upon definite medicine for the cure Of
their ailments without good cause.
Therefore, counterfeitiag such a remedy
is not an offence against the manufac-
turers of the genuine goods alone, but
against the public. It is an offence
against the manufacturers because it
rObs them of the fruit Of their enter
prise in making known the merit Of
their product and their expenditures in
advertising them, for which large sums
are paid 20 the newspapers daily. But
it IS an offence also against the people
a public offence. for unless the conf
dence Of the public in a genuine product
has been justly earned. il would be folly
advertising il. Hence the substitution
of cOunterfeits is an offence against the
commonwealth. and las the courts have
heidi, righteOusy punishable by impris-
onment and heavy fine.
II was shown that it is the impor.-
ancs OF a medicine that creates tempta-
ton to this crime; no one counte rfeits
poor medicine. 1t is a gratifying fact
that fraud, to the extent OF straight
counterfeitiDg, is very rare; the drug
gists Of the country are too honorable a
class OF men 10 involve themselves in
sucn duo,ous methods. and the people
are right in protecting themselves by
obtaining their medicines from trust
worthy dealers. and by taking pains to
have the genuineness of their purchase
