That phase of the tobacco habit
which is most prevalent among
boys is cigarette smoking, which
is'everywhere admitted to- be the
most hurtful Of all forms of using
tobacco. Strong men have sue
cumbed to it's power and gone
down to- death. in>the prime Of
their lives and usefulness q victim
of cigarette smoking. What Won
der then that boys and little child
rem should suffer injury from this
habit. Proof that. they do suffer
from the habit is brought to oul:
doors every day in: the daily pa
pers. We can scarcely pick up a
paper without seeing an account
of some boy who has been hope
lessly ruined in body and mind by
cigarette smoking. Some are
paralyzed, some are insane, others
have died, and day after day the
tale is told over and over again
and yet some mothers boy learns
to smoke the cigarette and starts
on the same road to ruin. The ex-
tent to which this habit is pre-
valent in schools is annoying and
disheartening. In some schools
as many as seventy-6ve or eighty
five per cent Of the boys use to-
bacco in some way, most of them
smoking cigarettse. 1t is the testi-
mony of teachers everywhere that
as a rule boys who use tobacco do
not stand as we'll in their classes
as boys who are not addicted to
the habit, they seem to be incap-
able of any prolonged mental ef-
fort. Tobacco is also said to blunt
the moral >sensibilities of children
using it. The use of tobacco by
boy criminals is universal.
The superintendent of the re-
form school at Westboro, Mass,
reports that all the boys sent there
have been users Of tobacco. 1t is
said that the tobacco appetite leads
to the easy promotion of an appe-
tite for drink so that mothers who
would permit their boys to smoke
or chew with the idea that they
will be less likely to learn to drink
are thereby encouraging or per-
hitting the very thing that makes
the step into drinking or other bad
habits the more easy. Are not
these facts enough to alarm every
mother in the land and set them to
thinking of the danger their boys
are in. Mothers let us try to save
our boys from the tobacco habit.
Show them their danger and use
every possible influence to keep
them out of this road which to
them may seem a harmless indul-
gence yet in the end may lead
them to ruin and eternal death.
We often find slaves to this habit
who would give any amount of
money to be free from it, but find
it impossible to quit of their own
accord. The awful depression
that follows an effort to quit the
habit is such as to make the stout
est heart quail. Boys who use
tobacco will grow with what is
now known as a tobacco heart a
disease induced by early smoking
which makes weak and unsound
men. Tobacco is the worst
natural curse of modern civiliza-
ton. Boys who use it will grow
up morally weak, slow in decision
and with little resisting power in
times of temptation. No one can
be prepared to reach swift and
wise decision if he has lost bis will

right nor to the left, a panic-stricken
mass; they dashed past us and on to-
ward the confederates coming up the
road. The latter, seeing that they were
just in time to arrest panic, drew up
in line across the road and stoidly
waited the coming of the fugitives.

Justice was certainly tempered with
large measure of mercy in the sem

County bank Of Perth Amboy, n. j.
He was sent to prison for>fve years or
1895 days. If the same proportion pre-
vailed in the punishment Of lesser
thefts, the man who stole $40, just
barely squeezing into the grand larceny
class, would get about five hours i'm

rhe Advance In Copper.

The doubling of value OF stock in the
big copper producing companies is only
surface indication of the tremendous
activity in copper mining everywhere.
A product selling in open market for Is
cents and costing 6 cents per pound to
produce Is in active demand. and the
world IL being ransacked for this metal
that electrical development has made so
permanently valuable. Nothing but
excessive. production can check the
present demand, and nothing Except
prohibitory and extortionate figures)
can quickly check the advance in price.
For nearly seven years increasing
foreign consumption has sustained the
American copper market; now that do
nestle requirements have been augmen-
ted. the price mounts still higher. Since
"a the American copper production in
creased from 100, 600 tons to pa, 600
tons; in the same time foreign product
ion decreased from 80, 600 tons in "a to
IS. 900 tons In '9s. Meanwhile exports
OF American copper have risen from
II, 600 tons In '94, and 90, 900 tons In '95
70 las. 900 tons In '96, thus leaving for
domestic consumption 50, 600 tons IN '94
and .lO6, 600 tons In 80, and in SO but
but SO, 900 tons.
In addition 1t Is to be noted that when
tbs big French syndicate went to pieces
lust ten years ago IL left ITO, 900 tons In
the hands OF the sub-syndicates OF the
bankers. Lake copper then fell to be.
low 10 cents, and the bankers called foi
a conference with the leading American
producers. The Calumet and Hecla
people told them that If they wished to
market their copper the price would o.
about 5 cents per pound, and they woulc
be found willing to meet the markell a.

The following are samples of the kind
of dispatches which we frequently see
in the daily papers:
CLEVELAND, O., March within
the past two days fully 5000 men large
lv employed In the various mills CON
trolled by the American Steel and Wire
company of this city, have been neil
fed of an increase In wages ranging
from to 10 per cent. The Hood Of Or
ders. revival in the steel trade and ad-
vance in pl lies for finished material are
given as reasons for the advance.
MARTINS FERRY, o., March 3
The American Tin Plate company has
notified employees of local plants OF the
voluntary increase IN wages OF from
to 10 per cent. Over 1000 men are
affected.
Here Is material evidence that the
prosperity In the East that We have
heard 80 much about is not all myth
of the politicians. The prospects are
good for another big crop season in the
grain belt, the eastern manufactures
are crowded with orders, our export
trade is the largest in the history ofthe
country, gold continues to come our
way and our own production for 1879
promises to outstrip all previous rec
ords.
According to Dun's weekly review OF
trade. the business of the past month
was the greatest ever done in this coun-
try In February. Clearinghouse ex-
changes were about $1,000, 900, 600,
against IS, 567, 500, s44 last year, and 5i.z
per cent larger than in 1892.
'In all the years of weekly CONNER
cial reporting there had been no Other
week in which the reports from al
parts of the country have been on the
whole so good as they are this week
Moreover, during the past week there
has been general advance IN wages,
immediate or prospective. At mos'
points the advance of 10 per cent OF
more was entirely voluntary, and as II
affects much over 100, 600 hands, it vii
add greatly to the purchasing power o.
the wags-earners.
Nor Is Nevada being out-stripped In
the general progressive movement
Her livestock and agricultural inter
ests we're never so fourishing as they
are to-day, and general revival Of
mining has begun. The unwatering o.
the Comstock, the erection Of smelter'
at Golconda the development of the
gold fields OF Elko county, and the &C
tivity In the old camps OF White Pine
AL promise work for hundreds of labor
ers. And to cap the climax, comes the
railroad through Lincoln county, which
win open up as rich country for ex
ploitation and settlement as can bS
found In the Great Basin Let US quit
''crying for the moon, and put oui
shoulders to the wheel of fortune. Ther
let the croakers stand out of the wa,
or they will be run over.

A Wife Should Insist on an Allow

| wish here to emphasize the fact
which so many husbands and wives
seem to forget--that marriage is on one
side as much business contract as any
other partnership, and demands exact
~ the same business treatment The
husband Is the Garner. the wife the dis
tributor, OF capital, and of the two her
work is really the more complex and
difficult. The only way to carry on this
business partnership successfully in
financial way, and without friction per.
sonally, is to put 1t on a cash basis. 1t
is right that the wife should insist upon
having an allowance. think the re.
luctancs with which many a man looks
upon giving an allowance to his wife

II is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while awaiting
the arrival OF the doctor. An Albany,

there for doctor to come and see his
child, then very sick with Group. Not
finding the doctor in, he left word for
him to come at oncs on his return. He
also bought bottle OF Chamberlain
Cough Remedy, which he hoped would
give some relief until the doctor should
arrive. In a few hours he returned,
saying the doctor need not come, as the
child was much better. The druggist,
Mr. Otto Scholz, says the family has
since recommended Chamberlain g

for it from that part OF the country.

Lately.

When Commodore George Dewey
left Washington to take command of
the United States fleet In the far East,
his cheeks we're red with the glow of
health and his hair was only beginning
TO be- streaked with the silvery threads
Of gray. On the morning of May last,
when Dewey sailed into Manila Bay and
proceeded to fill the Spanish ships full
of lead, he looked about the same as
when he left Washington. From May
LIST to February LIST is nine months, and
In that short period OF time Dewey 3
hair has become snowy white. A woman
who is just back from the Philippines
and who was In Manila at the time of
the battle OF Manila Bay, saw the Ad-

has met him many times since then.
She said that when she started for the
United States his hair was perfectly
white-made so by the tremendous
strain under which he has labored for
nine months. Washington Letter.
