old baby is twenty, and you are but

significant part Of the campaign as it

dissenting voice. Even those which
have not openly espoused his cause
give his speech high praise.
1t was to be expected, of course, that
the Democratic papers would have on

VALUE OF THE BIRCH.
What Old-Time Writers Regarded as
Its SpecjaItv


Old writer's in mentioning birch
trees seldom failed to say solemnly
that they were useful to grow
branches with which to give boys
thTashings Turner regards the sup
ply of flexible, pendent branches" for
l,Irroecs Of punishment as the chief
merit of :fe tree. Coles also based his
estimate of the birch chiefly on its
use in the supply of rods as instru-
ments Of pun. snment for he writes ::
The civil uses whereunto the birch
scrveth are many; as, for the punish
ment of children, both at home and at
school; for it hath an admirable in.
tluence upon them to quiet them when
they are ont Of order. and, therefore,
some call it make-peace. In ancient
Rome the fasces Of the lictors, with
which they cleared the way for the
magistrates, were formed with rods
OF birch. and their influence was usu-
ally sufficient to insure rapid dis
persion of men assembled where they
would impede the passage Of the adj
ministrators of the law. From that
time to within comparatively recent
period the birchen rod was regarded
as one OF the most important deter
rents Of juvenile depravity.

his colleagues of the baggage depart

justice that is done travC,e,s by the
wanton destruction of their property
by employees of railways. And if the
plea be made that rough handling OF
baggage is unavoidable it is only nee
eSSary to point out that the express
companies handle far more fragile
n,t.thandise without injury. What can
be done by an express messenger can
be done by baggageman if the bag

the old system of smashing things is
to be done away with.

TO END BAGGAGE-SMASHlNG.

At last, it seems. the indignity an(
damage to which the baggage of tray
elers is subjected have attracted the
attention of railroad officers. Those
functionaries have begun, somewha
tardly, it is true, to realize that tno
a man may be furnished with all the
2uXuries Ct sunptuols limited trains
INCLUDING electrical -lightol sleepers. FINK
dining cars and other comforts, he will
not feel kindly toward the railroad il
his trunk is wrecked and his belong
reckless baggagemen. 1t has taken
long time for railroad managers to
perceive this fact Let us hope that
the light will spread.
At any rate a start has been mace.
In paper recently read before the
General Association of Baggage Agents
by II. p Deerins, baggage agent of the
Michigan Central railroad, he admitted
that railroads have improved their
service in every point save in the
treatment of baggage The size Of the
baggage car has been reduced in order
to make room for a smoking cOmparl-
ment on fast trains and the mails have
likewise trenched upon the baggage
space.
The result is, as Nh Deerine ad-
1nits. that the area of safety for the
fravelers trunk has steadily diminish
ed. Where trunks were once spread
out on the floor of the baggage ear
they are now "ticred'--piled one on
