The Poor Mans Day.

In all our towns, and throughout too
large portion of our country districts,
the Sabbath rest is violated and the wor-
ship which was the consequence and con-
dition of this rest is abandoned: At the
same time the soul is deprived OF its noTr- on
ishment and the. body of its repose. Tho
poor man and the workingman are deliv-
cred up, unprotected, to the every day ", in
creasing influence Of error; and evil. Thus
the PROCLAMATION of the day has become
the ruin of the moral and physical health
Of the people, at the same time that it II, Is
the ruin Of the family and OF religious X 5b-
erty. The Sabbath is emphatically the
poor mans and the working mans day.
And there is no surer way to break down
the health, as we'll as the morals and re-
ligion Of the people, than to break down
the Sabbath. To say nothing of the. Di-
vine law, on mere worldly grounds it il
plain that nothing is more conducive to
the health, intelligence. comfort and inde-
pendence Of the working classes and to
our prosperity as q people than our Chris
tian American Sabbath.-Count Montalem-
bert.

that the newspaper to-day is far
greater factor in the publicity field
than it was even a year ago? AS adj
vertising grows more out of it's infancy
and out of it's experimental state, the
up-to-date periodicals are looked upon

to reach the public.-Newspaperdom.

An Interesting Newspaper.

Fourteen years before any newspaper
was published in Paris-namely, in
16OO-there appeared in Strasburg the
first number of a journal that claimed
to be the leading newspaper in Europe,
and printed the following extraordin-
ary title:
Full account Of all the principal and
memorable events which have taken
place or will take place during this
year 1900, in upper and lower Ger
many, and also in France, Italy, Eng
land. Scotland, Hungary, Moldavia,
Turkey and other countries. All the
news will be edited as carefully as pos
sible, and will be printed exactly as
received"

Hair-Pfn Proposals.

Womens rights are well established
= the Candahar district, judging from
the customs of the Waziris, tribe in
the neighborhood Of the Pishin Valley.
The fair sex are not only exempt from
all kinds of labor, but it is their duty
to make offers of marriage. Thus che
Waziri women sends hairpin to the
chosen one, requesting that with 1t he
will pin a handkerchief to his cap. If
her affection is returned, the request
IS fulfilled, and as the man fastens the
love token he publishes the woman's
name, and is obliged to marry her
forthwith.

Past and Future

The past is dead and has no resurrection,
but the future is endowed with such life
that it lives to us even in anticipation:
The past is, in many things, the foe OF
mankind; the future is, in all things, our
friend For the past there is no hope; for
The past is the text book k-of tyrants; tho
ftaure is the Bible of the free. Those who
are solely governed by the past stand like
