Friday is the most unlucky of days,
and 10 Of numbers, the belief in un-
lucky hours is equally widespread on
the European continent and in the
East. Gambetta was so firmly con

are lucky and others unlucky that he
would never commence any important
undertaking OF start on an important
journey without consulting a famous
reader OF cards as 10 the auspicious
hour, and President Faure, who was
prudent enough to select a lucky hour
for starting on his recent journey to
Russia, Is said to share Gambetta's su.
perstition. President Garnet was less
credulous, and selected an unlucky
hour for starting on the journey to
Lyons, where he was assassinated by
Caserio. The superstition is so com
nor in Paris that cards t~astefully en-
bellished and containing a list of
''hours to be avoided" are extensively
sold.

HOW TO ENJOY A CIGAR.

personal observation has taupbt
me- said a Cuban cigar dealer to a
Star reporter, that not one person in n
hundred knows how to smoke a cigar
to enjoy it thoroughly. For instance.
most men, after buying their cigars,
stick them between their teeth and
gnaW the ends off recklessly. thereby
tearing and %loosening the adj
Then they light their cigars and Duff
away as if their very lives depended
upon finishing them in a hurry. Thus
treated the finest cigar will burn irreg.
ularly and the smoker will, nine times
out OF ten, lay the blame on the cigar.
The cigar may be to blame, but in most
cases the fault lies in the way it has
been handled.
After a cigar has been bought. the
end should be cut smoothly off by a
clipper or sharp knife. Tie reverse end
should then be placed in the mouth and
the cigar blown through. This re.
moves all the little particles of dust
which cannot be avoided in the manu-.
tacture, and prevents them from being
inhaled into the throat, and from pro.
ducing coughing. The cigar should
then be lighted, and particular atten.
ton should be paid to its being thor,
oughly ignited all over the surface of
the end. Then, instead of pulling away
like a steam engine, the smoker will
find that three or four puffs every min.
ute make the best way to enjoy the
cigar. The smoke should be kept in the
mouth a short time in order to appre.
ciate the flavor of the tobacco. Then ii
should be emitted slowly.

GOLD AND INTEREST.
Lower Rates Indicate Dfminution of
Business and Decrease In
Industry.

The agreement to pay interest does
not contemplate the purchase of
money, but the return of the same
thing borrowed The value of money
Is to be determined by it's purchasing
power, not by its interest-getting
power. The demand for the purchase
Of money is founded upon entirely diff
ferent conditions from the demand
for the loan of money. In fact, when
the purchasing power is greatest the
lending power is least. The increasing
of the purchasing power of money is
failing prices" of everything else.
Falling prices work ruin and disaster
TO Industries and business. Men do
not increase their industries or start
new enterprises when everyone is los
ing money in their line. Industries
and business are operated largely
upon borrowed money. The demand
for the loan of money is created by
the activity of industries and business.
Therefore interest is highest when in
dustries and business are most thriv-
ing and lowest when they are dimin-
ished by falling prices. Consequently
lower rates of interest, instead of
proving that money has not appreci-
ated in value. demonstrate the con-
trary. In other words. the apprecia-
ton Of money. which is falling prices.
has produced diminution of business.
and therefore less demands for cred
its and lower interests.

HANNA'S IMPERIALISM.
The Republican Boss II Afrefd 81
Overconhdence I'm His
Party.

Hon. Mark Hanna opposed the war
policy 10 the last day. in the after
noon. but seems now to be more i'm
perialstic than the car of Russia.
Yet we discern in his outgivings the
note Of alarm lest the country should
not come up to the scratch. In an in
terview at Cleveland he says that the
republicans are INDUCING in over
confidence respecting the fall cleo
tions He (Hanna) is not ar optimist.
He does no. put any credence in the
figures given out by the congressional
committee at Washington that the re-
publicans are sure of i6 majority in
the rext house. I'VE are not sure of
anything" he declares. The thing to
do is not TO predict. but go TO work"
All very good advice and all very true.
except the statement that the repub-
lican party is suffering from over
aiIment The trouble is not overcon-
fdenee. but lethargy. The party sees
the danger ahead as plainly as Mr..
Hanna does. but it is incapable Of
rousing itself. and the reason is that
it is divided in its own mind respect
ing the very policy of Imperialism and
expansion and foreign possessions
that Mr.. Hanna has helped to push
upon il. II is troubled by the pledge
solen.nly given that the war was not
a war of conquest and of gain. and
that after delivering Cuba from OPP
preston we would come home and
leave her free and independent. Here
is Senator Foraker's chance to put
his knife under the fifth ribs of Nc
himself interviewed. He says that we
have no more right to keep a military
force in Cuba after the Spaniards
evacuate than to put such a force in
any other foreign country with which
we are at peace. All this talk about
throwing so 600 soldiers into Cuba aft
er tie Spaniards withdraw is without
authority so far as congress is con-
cerned. and will not be sanctioned by
the senate. in Foraker's opinion He
would withdraw all our troops as
soon as the Spa niards are cleared out
and then await events. At the same
time he is just as fierce for grabbing
the Philippines as Hanna himself He
thinks that the peace commission at
Paris ought never to have been ap.
pointed. We ought to have made a
treaty instead of protocol at the end
of the war; All of this talk tends to
disorganize the party and to give Mr..
Hanna fresh cause for doubling the
predictions of the congressional COM
mittee at Washington.-NY Y. Post.
