New Postal System.

The young postmaster OF a village
was hard at work in his Office when
gentle tap was heard upon the door ana
in stepped blushing maiden of 10 WIN
money order. which she wished
cashed. She handed il, with bashIui
smile, to the official, who, after closely
examining it, gave her the money i,
called for. At the same time he asked
her II she had read what was written
on the margin of the order. i.
NO, l have not" she replied. "for
cannot make it out. Will you please
read it for me?"
The young postmaster read as loi-
lows: Il send you ten shillings and q
dozen kisses"
CHANGING at the bashful girl, he SAID:
Now. have paid you the money ana
l suppose you want the kisses?"
Yes" she said. "if he has sent me
any kisses want them, too"
1t is hardly necessary to say that the
balance of the order was promptly paid
and in a scientific manner. i,
On reaching home the delighted
maiden remarked to her mother:
Mother, this postoffice system Oh
ours is great thing, developing more
AID more every year. and each new
feature seems to be the best. Jimmy
sent me dozen kisses along with the
money order and the postmaster gave
me 20. 1t beats the special delivery

CHARM FOR wHooPING COUGH.
Curious superstitions That Prevail
In some Parts of Ireland

W. Il. Fanu. writer on some Of the
phases of Irish life, tells of two WAYS
in which the simple peasantry of tina.
country treat the whooping cough,
which is generally known among them
as chin cough. One is this: II anyone
should be seen riding on piebald horse
the father or mother of the person az
fected runs after him, crying: You
that ride the piebald horse, what'sgood
for the chin cough?" Whatever the
rider suggests is procured, and given
to the sufferer. This remedy is con-
sidered very sure cure by the peas
antry. but is difficult to procure, as a
man riding a piebald horse is not met
with every day.
The other mode of curing the disease
is not considered 50 certain, but can
more easily be procured, that is pass
ing the child three times over and under
a donkey. Some donkeys are better
than others. remember, saysa Belfast
correspondent of the Lancet, famous
one in the southwestern part of County
Down. in which the rustics had great

Two other charms which have
known 10 be used in County Down for
this disease-and il is curious that
whooping coughs and erysipelas lthe
rose, as the Irish peasants often call ~
are affections most treated by charms
are the administration TO the patient

obtained from two first cousins whoar
married. and soup made from the taiis

THE TARIFF IN THE SENATE.
Speedy Passage of the DingIcy Bill
Is the Popular Demand.

ne senate Is body which Is pecul-
!arly responsive, and always has been,
TO the demands of the business inter-
csts of the country. Elected for term
OF six years, the members have more
time to take from personal politics and
give 10 craftsmanship than have their
colleagues of the house of representa-
tives. Then, too, the senator's are of
Elore conservative type and are lik"ly
TO be men whose experience in the
broad fields of business has been such
as 70 make them think, in legislative
matters, along commercial lines and to
keep closely in touch with private men
~ affairs. 1t is because of this pecul-
iarty that lingo legislation, however
dear its passage may have been in the
house, usually splits upon the sena-
torial rock of business caution and pru-
dence.
While the public has sometimes re-
scnted the fac: that the business mi
nority has more influence with the SEN
ate than the popular majority, there is
now common hope that the pressure
of business interests for a speedy adj
justment of the tariff may have the
usual effect. For once, all classes are
a unit upon a single legislative prop
osition. They want economic relief
with the least possible delay. Trade is
waiting, production is waiting. labor is
waiting, everything and everybody in
the country is waiting to have the
course cleared for the return of pros
perity. The people are in no mood for
long debates and the interminabie hair
splitting of past sessions. They are
prepared to resent waste Of time in
the making of personal records. The
Dingley bill. as passed by the house, sat
isles them in it's main features. and all
they want of the senate is to pass i,
likewise, with only such alterations as
| will make the measure more Just and
| symmetrical. and to do this work, il
| possible, before the summer trade be-
gins.-San Francisco Chronicle.
| 0After the election of Cleveland in
| 1899 the business world took alarm o..
the certainty that low tariff would be
passed, and began to prepare for it, Just
as to-day everyone is preparing for ths
time when the Dingley bill shall be.
come law. Four years ago the mer.
thants stopped buying, so as to get rid
Of the stocks on their shelves of goods
which would be affected by lower
tariff; importers stopped buying ex
cept to fill direct orders, and revenue.
fell off in consequence. Now they ar.
doing exactly opposite. During Marcel
they took imported goods out of bond
paying the duties thereon, and thu,
increased the revenues sufficiently h
turn the deficit into surplus.-Toled,
! Blade.

Greece Ablaze.

Marco Bozzaris has risen from his
glorious grave, and is again arraying
''his Suliote band" against the Turks.
The island of Crete is the natural heri-
tage of Greece. 1t was "the hundred
cited isle" of Homer's lay, and the
great majority of its people are still
Hellenic in religion, in character and
sympathy. The island has suffered the
vicissitudes of fortune of the kingdoms
of the Mediterranean, but centuries ago,
like other lands in the Orient, it
fell under the evil dominion of the
Turk. Its aspirations have ever been
for independence, or for union with
Greece. From 1886 to 1883 a fierce in
surrection in the island ragged against
the Turk. The Cretans were encour-
aged by the Greeks, but by the edict of
Europe their, aspirations were depressed,
and the Turk promised concessions and
reforms which never came. 1t was ex-
pected that in the remapping of eastern
Europe after the Turko-Russian war,
Greece would be made the legatee of
the "Sick Man's' territories along her
borders. 1t is believed that assurances
of this kind were given by England,
and that by reason of such encourage
ment the Grecian army vas withheld
from a diversion in favor of Russia
when the clinch came at Plevna. In
negotiating the treaty of San Stefano,
and in the Congress of Berlin, it is be-
lieved that %''per6dious Albion was true
to the policy that has earned her an I'M
