AN ASTOR BATTERYNFAN'S FILL
 PINO MACBETH.

One of the members of the Astor bat tery brought back as a souvenir 9 ma chete which he obtained from Fili- pino guard of Aguina1dos army. The Astor battery man and a companion had occasion to cross the Filipino s lines and they expected to run the pickets. Just as they were congratu- ldting themselves on their success they were held Iap by a picket, who brought them to a halt with a flourish of his rnachete and asked them to give an ac- count of themselves. They had nc right to be within the Filipino lines, and if they were arrested they fore saw all manner of subsequent difficult ties. The Astcr battery man had prof ited by tales which he had heard, and pointing to the machete, he asked:
 How much?"
 The Filipino understood the ques- tion and his expression changed. He hesitated a moment and then set a price on his weapon equivalent to $2 of American money. 1t was a very or dinary machete and his price was eX- travagant "Au right" said the Astor battery man, and giving the picket $2 he took his machete and walked on, thus not only acquiring an interesting souvenir, but eXt-icating himself and his companion from what might have been an awkward predicament.-New York Sun

 IMPERIALISM

The prominence in the market of the stocks of the recently formed gigantic industrial corporations, such as Federal ! Steel ard International Paper, as well as of those of similar concerns of long CT standing, has called renewed atten- tion to the progress which the country is making toward the concentration in few hands of the capital invested in manufactures. Politicians see in the movement curtailment of the inde- pendence of citizens of small means and menace to the interests of con sumers. Men as eminent as President Cleveland and Judge Peckham of the United States supreme court have pub licly deprecated it and favored meas ures for its repression. The newspa- pers have joined in the cry, and de- nounce the great trusts" as they call them. as enemies of the public vel fare. To the economist, however, they are legitimate results of civilization. and the natural outcome of the law that underlies all human development.
 The domiannt force in the physical universe is an attraction of it's parti- cles to one another which has created out Of widely diffused vaporous matter solid suns and planets. Our own solar system is held together by this force and but for it would fly aSunder and be dissipated into endless space. Air and water cling to the surface of the earth and form a continuous envelope around it. Minerals and metals cohere and serve useful purposes in proportion to the tenacity with which they retain their solid form Tn living organisms. the assimilation and aggregation of substances go on continually, and whenever the process ceases, the or ganisms first decay and then die. Ac- cretion is the mark of life. and disin- tegration the accompaniment and con- sequence of death. Neither a vege table nor an animal can survive the de- struction of it's unity, and resists it to the utmost of it's power.
 History testifies that the same prin- ciple governs the growth anu Gecay of nations. Powerful empires have been powerful, not from the extent of their territories and the number of their in habitants, but from the union of their parts under the sway of a central con- trolling head. China, for example, em- braces an area of many thousand square miles, and it's people are count ed by hundreds of millions, but it is weaker than Japan, of one-tenth it's size, because Japan is we'll organized and vigorously administered. In an cient times the Assyrian, Babylonian, Persian and Macedonian empires per-
 ished as soon as they were broken up. Greece fell under Roman domination because of the want of unity of it's va rious republics, and Rome. in turn, ceased to be the mistress of the world when it ceased to be one organic whole. India, immense as is it's area and it's resources, was speedily subjugated by the English because it was divided into numerous petty states, each at war with it's neighbors. On the other hand, England itself owes it's strength to having emerged from succession of civil wars into it's present unity. Germany, from a mere congeries of kingdoms, principalities and dukedoms, hase recently been consolidated into

misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia. People having it think their nerves are to blame and are surprised that they are not cured by nerve medicines. The real seat of the mischief is lost sight Of. The stomach is the organ to be looked after.
 Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps any of the usual symptoms of stomach weakness. Nervous dyspep- sia shows itself not in the stomach so much as in nearly every organ. In some cases the heart palpitates and is irregular; in others the kidneys are affected: in others the bowels are con s'tipated, with headaches; still others
