FACTS FOR FARMERS.


To very considerable extent people
make for themselves the conditions OF
life.
Even with the most carefully pre-
pared food Che greater portion digested
goes to supply heat and energy.
Because poor sheep have light hceces
Is not proof that fat sheep have heavy
ones.
Good stock, crops, fertility and in
dustry are essential items in good
farming. -

down there is weakening of vitality,

scene painter still secures his effects

reason why the glass should not be a

This is Gilbertian, even if not poetic
justice, and it opens wide field for
humorous and lingering punishments''

THE GLASS TO NATURE.

The comparative failure of Sothern's
recent revival of .The Lady of Lyons"
gives point to some remarks by the
editor of Scribners on the tendency Of
American actors of the present day
to overfeel and underact. Sothern is
perhaps the best Of the romantic ac-
tors of the American stage, and the
drama in question, though stilted and
artificial. is romantic in the extreme.
In reducing the drama to the limits of
it of the elements that have made it
popular It might be urged that the
fault, under the circumstances, lies
with the author rather than the actor,
but it is rather late now to go behind
the verdict Of successive generations
of playgoers and say that in itself the
Lady of Lyons does not possess the
elements of popularity. 1t might be
urged also that the public taste has
changed, and that the day of Claude
MeInotte has gone, no matter in what
guise he may be presented. This is a
view hardly to be sustained. The pub
lie likes romantic heroes, and it has in
recent days accepted many quite as
theatrical as thesfgardner of Bulwer
Lytton's story. The truth would seem
to be the one expressed, that modern
actors feel too much and express too
little. In plays written with such
purpose in view the. e.fau1t is not so ap-
parent as when the veritist method is
applied to a play written in the day
when action was the thing.
Action, after all, is what appeals to
the popular taste.-. Deep feeling may be
admired, reserve may be appreciated in
a way, but in story or in drama, it is

If changes and improvements are need

will be for competent tribunal to de-

Is on trial in good many ways in the
work of this charter commission. 1t is
on trial in it's own forum to decide
whether or not our own people are
competent to frame an instrument of
government for themselves. It is on
trial before the people Of the state to
show whether st. Paul alone, out of
all the cities affected, is incompetent to
act. The people desire nothing rash,
nothing iconoclastic, but they desire
amendment and reform, rather than
lengthy debates over legal questions.
What they want is to see the charter

down which Of these backs did not the
same thrill run that he felt tingling
along his nerves in those days as he
marched up to the rostrum and, with
sweeping obeisance, his heart glow
ing with patriotic pride, declaimed:
"Aye, tear her tattered ensign down?'
Who of them does not feel again the
pathos that then swelled into his throat
as he closed his "pieee" with the lines:
Nail to the mast her holy flag,
Set every threadbare sail,
And give her to the god of storms,
The lightning and the gale?"
No name of all those fleets Of gal
liant frigates that covered the humilia

War of 1872 with the glory Of their
victories on sea remains so familiar to
the American Of today as does that Of
the staunch frigate Constitution, which
earned the soubriquet of "Old IRON
that carried her hardly scathed
through her stiff combats with and
capture of the Guerriere, the Java, the
Levant and the Cyane. Her consorts, the
President and the United States, the
Chesapeake, Constellation and Con-
gress, after bearing we'll their part in
that war, went to the hulks and were
finally broken up and are forgotten
save as we recall the words of dying
Lawrence, as the Shannon's guns swept
the Chesapeake's deck: Don't give up
the ship" Long ago the fleets with
which Perry won immortality on Lake
Erie and Macdonough on Lake Cham
plain fell to the junk dealers, while
the Constitution is still a preserved
and venerated memento of the days
when the United States successfully
contested with Great Britain the mas
terry of the sea.
''Old Ironsides'' would have gone
with her sisters and be no more re-
naembered now than are they, had it
not been for the wrath that the propo-
sition to dismantIe and break her up
stirred in the heart and brain Of a
Stripping just out of Harvard, who, fir
ed at what he deemed a sacrilege, a
shameful neglect of heroic service, q
heartless ingratitude, poured out his
feelings in the poem that woke the
country like a bugle note, stayed the
destroying hand, made the old war
ship an object of veneration, and made
Oliver Wendell Holmes famous in a
day Mere sentiment it may be that,
thus awakened, saved the old frigate
and has kept her to witness the ceIe-
bration of the hundredth anniversary
of her launch, but it is just such SEN
timent that makes the life of a ma
tion strong and secure when it stirs
men to action, and whose disappear
ance precludes national decay. It
will be a sorry day for this country
when her children can read unthrilled
the feats of Hull, Bainbridge and
Stewart, successive commanders of the
Constitution, and the stirring poem of
Holmes that saved her from the hulks:
For never land long lease of empire won
Whose sons safe silent when base deeds

COLD RONSIDES."

What gray-haired boy is there among
US upon whom the memories Of his
morning did not come flocking thick
and fast and, swooping down upon him,
shut out today, its cares and worries
and struggles, and its successes and
failures, and carry him swiftly back to
the days when life was young and i'm
pulsive and generous, as he read the
brief dispatches in his morning paper
of the 21st, that told him how the Tooth
anniversary of the launching Of ''Old
Ironsides" was being celebrated in Bos-
ton? Back again to the log school

are more demoralizing to the audience
than it would be to witness the exc
cution of a dozen death sentences.
There are cases in every city where the
testimony is unfit to be heard in its
most disreputable resort, and where
through the hearings without blush.
The audience inspires the legal COM
batants to new efforts, and the inge-
nuity of their devices helps to draw the
audience.
Thus we ,have great sections of a
community interested in following the
course of crime, and there is no meas
ure of the moral degradation that en-
sues. A trial like this of Luetgert is
plague spot in a community, from
which the contagion spreads out in ever
widening circles, and no. man can tell
how many lives will be ruined and how
many prison cells filed because of it's
work. Presently we shall get to be
little more civilized, and then under
stand that trial for crime is exactly
like a surgical operation for some
loathsome affliction. We do not con-
slider that the public health will be pro-
NOTED or the profession of medicine
advanced by advertising clinic in the
newspapers, or filling the benches when
some repulsive sore is to be lanced
The moral is not less precious than the
physical. Why, when these ulcers of
the soul are to be laid bare, and the
air is filled with stencil in order that
the moral health of the community as a
whole may be improved, should we ask
all the world in to share in what in it's
last analysis, is one Of the mournfulest
spectacles in a so-calIed Christian and
civilized state? The time will come
when no one but the parties directly
concerned, the principals, their wit
nesses, the attorneys on both sides and
the court officers, will be permitted to
be present at trials for the graver
crimes. When that rule is generally
enforced, it will do more to prevent
the growth of crime than all the re-
formatOries in the land.
