Gay morning, claimed that the resurrection OF
man was not return from the grave, but the
emerging OF the spiritual body from the ply

aWaKenlng to consciousness and activity in
!ne spiritual world. Man, he said, is spir-

N AND n CUB.
Likes and DisIikes of a Hear That Was
sucked by . Goat.

Likes and DisIIkes of n bear That Was
Suckled by . Goat.
The bear that figures in the story is
known as Jack. and he belongs to
Lewis Ford, who formerly owned a goat
ranch high up on the Cerro Colorado
mountain, overlooking the lovely valley
of the San joaquin.
Ford found the bear when 1t was a
cub, soft, round, shining and black.
Being wifeless, childless and alone, he
adopted the tiny cub and carried II
home. Once there, Ford soon found
that a foster mother must be provided
for the infant. and SO q frightened,
trembling, blcating she goat was
brought to the house to take the place
of the parent he no missed. It was only
after much combined force and persua-
sion the goat could be induced to adopt
as her W the uDkidlike orphan placed
in her care. But the time came when
foster mother and foster child were as
happy and. content. in their relations to
each ether as If the sight Of a. nimble
footed, blue haired nanny" sucking a
clumsy black hem cub was Of the most
ordinary condition Of affairs The bear
waxed fat on gont's milk, and a more
docile, tractable. beast never grew up
under the guardianship of humane and
loving master. In the earlier days of his
adoption the baby was a baby in truth.
He. would not be left alone, and II
would have been a harder heart than
Ford's that Could have resisted the pitt
full whiniper az the little fellow when.
ever he tbouPht tint he was to be left
alone in the house. Had there been any
to see it in those days, they would have
witnessed q strange sight. The great.
broad shouldered man, following his
dock as they grazed on the bunch grass
sometimes five or six miles from home
and as he walked the steep mountain
side, where it. was so nearly p%erpendicu-
lar that 1t seemed that only the goats
themselves could gain a foothold on the
rocks, carried the cub in his ,armsL
When Jack grew older. he was trained
to herd goats. Previously a number Of
dogs had helped Ford. but the bear and
the dogs coule not agree, and 80 the
dogs had to go. jack took their place
we'll. and they were never missed. Fol-
several years the bear continued. to helE
Ford until the latter sold his ranch and
prepared to go to his old home in Eu.
rope. Then a number Of his neighbour
tried to buy the bear. Ford refused tc
sell him and said that If; he could moi
take Jack with him he would not GO
The difficulty about shipping the bea,
was overcome. and nov he and his mas.
ter are living. ~contentedly in the ole
country. enjoying the fruits Of theil
long, lonesome stay in the California
mountains San Francisco Call.

Keeping Wealth Distributed.

keeping Wo9ltn D10tr1OuteO.
Out in the Southwest. in one Of the
new settlements, the citizens resolved to
take time by the forelock and avoid many
Of the heart-burnings that are common
further east regarding the distribution
Of wealth. A citizen Of that locality Wis
iting the East was asked regarding the
practical workings of this new theory in
this community. He was questioned a.
to how they were getting along in main.
tanning q reasonably fair average in the
acquisition Of wealth. He replied that
they were getting along first rate. Don't
you find some OF your people more enter
prising than others, have q better bust
ness capacity. and acquire more wealth
than others? Yes, we find that put there.
Don't you also discover that some Of your
people get up earlier in the morning than
others, do more work than others. and so
produce more? Yes, we find that there
too. Then how in the world do you n
age to keep things on the dead level with
regard to the acquisition of property?
Why, it is the simplest thing in the world.
When we find a fellow getting ahead Of
the rest decidedly, we appoint a good
sized committee which will be able to
meet the occasion, and send them out
there to live with him until they eat him
back.-From address Of Secretary Wilson

Practical and Prudent Protection
In our manufactures we start with the
advantage OF having our raw material
ready At hand, while England must go
thousands Of miles for every cotton ball
she spins. We can prodrce all the wool,
cotton, woods and metals required for any
and every variety Of manufacture. 1t is,
therefore, clear that with these three nat
ural advantages Of food, fuel and raw
material In available abundance, we only
need favorable conditions Of enterprise
and competition to attain and maintain
absolute supremacy in every line Of hui
man industry. These conditions can only
be provided By the system Of protection.
This proposition requires no argument.
It has been amply demonstrated by expe-
rience.
We require for continuous and increas-
ing prosperity, not so much any particu-
lar tariff schedules, as the general, vital,
conserving principle Of protection, prac-
tically applied and p%rudently adjusted to
the industries and interests OF Ill Sec
tons and classes.-Wool Record.

What Caused the Change.

MEE ET-
What does high-priced cate and hogs
mean? Simply that more people east Of
the Missouri river are eating meat. Why?
are at work. The people who were idle
under the Wilson tariff Of the Popocrats
are employed. The people who were
employed under that tariff are get
ting higher wages. What caused the
change: Faith of business men, capital
lists, employers Of labor and money, in
the Republican party aud its weil-tried
tariff policy,
The tariff nothing to do with it! 1t
has everything to do with it. Canadian
eggs and chickens are shut out IN the
north and Mexican cattle on the south.
The American market for the American
farmer, is the Republican principle, and
1t is working, as it always has worked,
for the welfare Of the nation. Pauper
labor is shut but. Pauper made goods
are shut out. The American market is
reserved for the American laboring man
and the American farmer, and both are
realizing the benefits Of this patriotic,
b~usiness-like policy, tested ana indicated
by American history for more than fifty
years.
The Kansas farmer gives away cattle,
hogs, corn, wheat, hay, eggs, butter and
milk In every vote he gives for Organism,
Populism or fusion. 1t is bad business.
No level-headed farmer will permit the
calamity orators for free silver and flee
trade to deceive him again and induce
him b. specious but false promises to vote
away his property and prosperity
