The Ladies' Home Journal For 1898.

To make The Ladies' Home Jour
nal for 1898 "the best of all the
years; the most cheerful and helpful
magazine that a woman can have in
her home" is the purpose of the edi-
tors, as disclosed by the prospectus
outlining a few of the projected fea-
lures for the coming year. While
the Journal will be more useful and
practical than ever before, it is made
apparent that it's literary features
will be strengthened, and that pic
torially it will be more attractive
and artistic than ever.
A notable feature, "The Inner EX-
periences of a Cabinet members
Wife," letters from the wife of q
Cabinet member to her sister, will, it
is said, reveal some startling and
graphic pen-pictures of Washington
social and official life. They are so
realistic that the letters will be pub
lished anonymously and are likely to
| attract National attention. The
biographies of President McKileny,
Mrs. Cleveland, Mark Twain, Thom-
as A. Edison, and Joseph Jefferson
will be presented in a novel way by a
series OF anecdotes, giving the vital
characteristics of each. Rev. John
| Watson, ID. ID. CIan Maclaren') +,
will contribute q series OF articles on
| matters close to the interest ofevery
man aud woman: Edward w. Box
will have special page for young
men, in addition to his usual editor
ial discussions; Lillian Bell will con-
tinue her bright crisp letters from
European capitals: Mrs. Burton
Ha rrison will describe society at the
beginning OF the century, and ex-
President Harrison is to write on
"The flag in the Home"

1898 Ladies Home Journal, which is
aimed to meet the literary and prac-
tical needs of every member OF the

In and editorial of about six inch
es in lenght taken from H. l.. Loucks
Ruralist, the word ''reform" is used
10 times. The fellow who howls
most about reforming something is
usually trying to deceive some one.
This reform" racket has been over,
worked, anyway, many people are
becoming more and more disgusted
with it each year. Wherever and
whenever men have been elected to
"reform" something, they have done
Just about as other men did who
made no such professions. This is
natural, and Just what any sensible
man might expect, because human
nature does not vary a great deal.
But the bigger the demagogue the
more he shouts reform.

The commercial world has been
greatly interested in the big game
that has been played in wheat by
Letter and Armor of Chicago. 1t is
unusual in that the real wheat was
delivered, instead of being purely op-
tions. Armour and associates sold
and delivered to Letter 100000
bushels. This actual demand for
December delivery made a good price
for the commodity.

Among the industries that are now
occupying public attention is that OF
raising beets and the manufature OF
sugar therefrom. The general be-
lief is adva need, substantiated by
some experiments that the dry belt
i'm which the Dakotas, Nebraska and
Kansas are located is particularly
well adapted to the production OF
the sugar beet. There are already
two manufactures in Nebraska, and
there has been some talk OF estab,
fishing one at Yankton. The plant
requires moisture only in the early
stages, to start the growth, and
clear, sunshinv weather thereafter.
One OF the first obstacles encounter
ed in the establishment of beet sugar
production is in the expensive factor
les, costing all the way from 5000
900 to 100000. To obtain the
interest of capitalists some OF the
advocates of the industry suggest
that the western states offer induce
ments in the way of bountieS for
factories and production OF sugar.

THE EASTERN SITUATION.

What will Uncle Sam do in the matter,
is the purport of question by German
newspaper in referring to the prospective
division Of the Chinese Empire among
European nations. What can Uncle
Sam do, and what difference is it to him
anyway, would seem to be a pertinent
rejoinder. If the Uuited States should
interfere in any attempt made ut con-
quest in the Chinese Empire where
would he our boosted Monroe doctrine ?
Interference in Asia upon our part would
tear down the lars which we have put up
and maintained against European inter-
ference or aggression in the Western
hemisphere. This would be big price
to pay for the privilege Of having say in
the prospective dismemberment of anti
quated China, without any cost to our
selves, and without the forming OF Ell.
tangling alliances with any European
or Asiatic nation. Unless the United
States is prepared to 90 into the business
Of acquiring territory, and maintaining
it by force OF arms, Uncle Sam will keep
respectful and dignified silence upon
the subject. At the same time he will be
an interested spectator Of the great game
Of chess which seems about to be COM
menced upon the field Of antiquity.

A number Of indignant citizens werg
grouped about dead mule in Perry
street lane. The mule had just dragged
q load Of kindling wood to its destina.
ton, and when the driver, who had been
belaboring the animal, stopped at tho
door where the wood was to be delivered
the mule sank to the ground and re-
NAMED motionless between the shafts.
Several passersby who had witnessed the
occurrence hurried to the spot and were
outspoken in their criticisms Of the
drivers brutal indifference. One Of the
bystanders took the driver severely to
task for not trying to Save the beasts
life, but the driver went on unloading
the kindling wood and carrying it in the
house, with apparent indifference. When
he had unloaded his cart, he coolly
mounted the seat, gathered up the reins
and shouted, "Wake up dar, you Ras.

ed one eye, wabbled to his feet and
shambled off mp the lane. Then the
crowd melted away, and an air Of peace
