It may be; but in « such cases care should be taken for the protection of the corpse.

A WORD IN SEASON. CAROLINE BARTLETT, a young preacher of Kalamazoo, tells women not 10 give up the home altogether for the club, the wheel and the lecture. “Do not sap your vitality,” says she, “and bring fag- ends of nerves and ruffled tempers to your homes.” Most excellent ad- vice, That is a privilege which belongs solely to the other sex. OUR DAVID. ATOR HILL has really said as. much for silver as for sound ntoney. He will be a prominent figure at Chicago, and if he isn’t careful the nomination may take him by his side-whiskers and ruin him forever. He has to retire anyhow, and he might prefer to go out in that smoke of smudge which the silver element will poetically look upon as a blaze of glory. THE TIP. A BARBER insists on the right to be tipped, and Henry B. Martin, a leader of the knights of labor, says it is simply one method of raising the wages of the persons tipped. Now a tip is a gratuity, and a gratuily is charity; and it is not a fair proposition that, having paid a fair price for something, one should also assist in paying wages that ought to be paid by somebody else. THE TWO GIANTS. THOMAS JEFFERSON, Democrat, was beaten by John Adams, Fed- eralist, in the race for president in 1796, one hundred years ago. That was the beginning of the Dem- ocratic party, and it looks now as if we had reached the end of it. A century is a long time to live, The close of it is a good time to die. The Republican party is just forty years old, the primest prime of all the vigorous periods of life. THE SACRIFICIAL LAMB (CAMPBELL OF OH1O is frank- ness itself. As to silver he is also courageously foolish. He bares his bald head to its lightning and tells it to come on, He wants to be struck. There are others who better deserve to be slaughtered— Boies, Matthews, Blackburn, Bland, and a score more; but he thinks his will be the better corps he rushes to the place of ss and will not be denied. Where are his friends ? TWO EXTREMES. THE POLICE of Pitsburg were never so busy as during the deliberations of the late prohibition national convention. The uplifted skies and the lower atmosphere were lurid. It may have been a case of cause and effect; and the delegates, who were obliged to be temperate in everything but their remarks, had the earnest sympathy of the whole town, We mention this as an instance of the perversity, and incidentally the hilarity, of human nature. T'm afraid de current will be FAIR JUDGMENT. HE CHARGE OF THE HUNGRY at Moscow cost twelve hundred lives. The slaughter is in horrible contrast with the cost and brill- iancy of the coronation. We doubt, however, whether the dead were vic- tims of the desperation of starvation so much as of one of those causeless panics as to which this country has had a good deal of experience. An improperly policed crowd becomes a mob very easily, and a mob is as bad as several herds of frightened wild beasts. THE TITLED ANGEL. TRE ACTRESS who sued one Lord Sudley for breach of promise got about what she deserved—a little notoriety, a great deal of disgrace. and no salve for her wounded reputation. It is not pleasant to read that the lord in question looked upon his relations with the woman as quite the proper thing; but on the other hand these selections of angels because of their titles, and with the sole end in view of relieving them of their super- fluous funds, are too common and exhibit a desire for public notice which is not consistent with the demand for damages. comicbooks:co
