Commerce forms numerous class,
friends of external peace and internal
tranquility, who attach themselves to
the established government
It creates great fortunes, which IN
republics become the origin Of the
most forceful aristocracies. AS rule
commerce enriches the cities and
their inhabitants, and increases the
laboring. and mechanical classes. in
opening more opportunities for the
requirement of riches. To an extent
it fortifies the Democratic element
in giving the people Of the cities
greater influence in the government.
1t arrives at nearly the same result
by impoverishing the peasant and land
owner, by the many new pleasures of.
fered him and by displaying to him
the ostentation and voluptuousness OF
luxury and ease 1t tends to create
bands of mercenaries rather than
those capable of worthy personal se-v'
ice. 1t introduces into the nation
luxury. ease and avarice at the same
time as labor-Barnave.

custom of the craft when wishing to

Law of Coed Faith.

I see no exception to the respect
that Is paid among nations to the law
of good faith. If there are cases in
this enlightened period when 1t is vio-
lated, there are none when it Is de-
cried. 1t is the philosophy of politics,
the religion OF governments. 1t is OBJ
served by barbarians-a Whit OF to-
bacco smoke, or q string Of beads,
gives not merely binding force, but
sanctity to treaties. Even in Algier5
a truce may be bought for money; but,
when ratified, even Algiers IS too wise
or too just, to disown and annul It's
obligation. Thus, we see neither the
ignorance of savages nor the prin-
ciples OF an association for piracy and
rapine, permit nation to despise its
engagements. Il there could be a res
direction from the foot of the galloWs,
if the victims of justice could live
again, collect together and form a so
ciety, they would, however loath,
soon find themselves Obliged to make
justice. that justice under which they
fell, the fundamental law OF their
state-Fisher Ames.

MAKE BUSINESS OF EATING
Professionals Assist Diners Who Are
Compelled by Etiquette to Leave
Clean Plates.

One of the most striking customs OF
the past that are preserved by the
Indians of today is found among the
tribes on the DEVILS Lake reservation
In North Dakota. According TO the re-
port of an officer of the Indian bureau
the Devils Lake Sioux have from
time immemorial adhered to a curious
custom in regard to the treatment OF
| guest. According to their etiquette
it is the bounden duty of the host
to supply his guest with all the food
he may desire. and as rule the ap-
portionment set before the visiting In
dian is much in excess of the capacity
OF single man. But by the same
custom the guest is obliged to eat all
that is placed before him else he
grossly insults his entertainer. II
was found that this practice would
work hardship but instead OF dis
pensiug with the custom the Indian
method of reasoning was applied, and
what is known as the professional
eater was brought to the front.
While the guest is supposed to eat
all that is placed before him, It serves
the same purpose if his neighbor as
sists in devouring the bountiful re-
past, the main object being to have
the plate clean when the meal is fin
shed 1t is not always practicable to
depend upon a neighbor at table to as
sist in getting away with large din
net. and in order to insure the tina
consumption of the allotted portion
visiting Indians call upon these pro
| fesionai eaters, whose duty 1t is tc
| sit beside them throughout a meal ant
eat what the guest leaves The pro
| fesioral eaters are never looked upor
in the light Of guests, but more as
! travelling companions with a particular
duty to perform. These eaters receive
! from enc dollar TO two and even three
dollars for each meal where they as
