nleribIe Writing.

The severest criticism upon illegible
writing on record was made by an Eng
lish writer recently, who said: There
are a vast number of people who seem
to take positive pleasure in signing
their names-and, for that matter,
writing a whole letter-so that no one
can read it. Women are, perhaps, the
worst offenders, but they do not trans
gress so much with regard to their
signatures as men. Nobody has any
business to give other people the
trouble of having TO decipher hero
glyphics; and if only we all had the
courage to ignore communications that
give trouble to read we might at least
make folks write clearly, if not pref
tily. Unhappily, handwriting is IN
doubtedly characteristic, and the
worst writers usually have the loosest
minds, with the result that illegible
letters are almost invariably incoher-
snt and ungrammatical."

Developed by Cultivation.

All garden vegetables are merely
types improved by long cultivation of
wild species. The wild cabbage is
common enough in places by the sea,
but is of no use for food in its wild
state. Indeed, it will take botanist
TO tell that it was a cabbage at all.
Scotland owes the cabbage to Crom-
wells soldiers. The caulifiower is but
a cultivated improvement on the cab
bage. 1t was brought to perfection
in Cyprus and was very little known
until about a century ago. The pars-
nip is another native of this country
You may find it along almost any
hedgerow, but it is small and intense.

street Cooking in China.

The Chinese believe in early rising
and begin their workday several hours
earlier than Europeans or Americans.
In this particular the high officials set
a good example, for they hold audi
ences and transact business at day
light. The street kitchens which NAV
be seen in any Chinese town do bust
ness at all hours of the day and night
and had become well established insti-
tutions several thousand years before
the American owl restaurant was
thought of.-N. y. World,

Mr.. Major the famous cement man Of New
York, explains some very interesting facts about
Majors Cement.
The multitudes who use this standard article
know that 1t Is many hundred per cent better
than other cements, for which similar claims
are made. but great many do not know why.
The simple reason Is that Mr.. Major uses the
best materials ever discovered and other man
ufacturers do not use them, because they are too
expensive and no not allow large profits. Mr..
Major tells US that one Of the elements Of his
cement costs S3.I5 pound, and another costs
SO gallon. while a large share OF the So
are siLteen-cent glue, dissolved In water or cit
nc acid and, IN some cases. altered slightly IN
color and Odor by the addition Of cheap and
useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents a bottle, and when q dealer
tries to sell a substitute You can depend upon
II that his only object is to make larger profit.
The profit on Majors cement is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement And
this Is doubly true In view Of the fact that each
dealer gets his share Of the benefit Of Mr. Maj
ors advertising, which now amounts 20 over
S7-0uO a month throughout the country. Estab-
lished in 1870.
Insist on having Majors. Don't accept any
Otf-hano advice from q druggist.
If you are at all handy land you viii be likely
to ma that TOu are good deal more so than
you lmag1nel you can repair your rubber boots
and family shoes, and any other rubber and
leather articles, with Majors Rubber Cement
and Majors Leather Cement.
And you VIII be surprised at how many dol
lars a year you viii thus save.
If your druggist can't supply you, IL viii Be

They say prosperity is with us Is
it? Yes. a homeopathic dose.
First, what brought it?
Initiation Of the currency, largely
which the republicans in 1896 told Us
would be dishonest and wicked beyond
description.
Big crops at home; famine abroad.
For how many Of these causes does
the Mckinley administration deserve
creditg
Second, who gets the benefit of this
prosperity How is it divided up?
The Chicago Tribune for May last
gave figures to show that Mr.. Rookie
feHer's share would be about SO, OOO, 900
for this year in addition to the millions
he already. possessed. What is the
share that falls to other representa-
tives Of the plutocratic class?
Hundreds Of thousands and millions
Of dollars Of additional income; auto
mobiles, private yachts, summer resi-
dences at Newport, trips to Europe,
Belshszzar feasts.
What is your share, wOrkingmaD?
Do you have 8 summer vacation with
income undiminished and everything
that money can buy? Can you, like
Steel Trust Gates, 60 to Paris and
throw handouts Of money from the top
Of the EifeI tower to the people in the
street as you would throw corn to
chickens?
What do the republicans think your
share ought to be-
First, if you don't offend your mast
srs, the glorious privilege Of working
like an OK six days In the week.
Second, the luxury Of eating a cold
dinner ont Of tin pail; and, ike the
horse with his nose bag, OF the negro
slave before the war, eating enough to
keep up your strength that you may
continue to produce wealth for yonr
masters.
How much do the republicans prom
ise you for keeping them in power,
maintaining the luxury Of the rich and
enabling the trusts to get possession Of
the earth3 Just what you are getting /
now not q cent more, not 8 privilege
more. not the glimmer OF chance TO (
enter more largely into our prosper
ityn and 10 enjoy more fully the op-
and blessings Of american
civilization.
