A meal of the yery cheapest food. is very apt to be a meal of some poor quality of provision. .A meal of rich food gives little or no strength to body or mind. Your strength of body and mind is your main stock in trade. It has a value in dollars and cents. A steady diet of poor food may make you, IE e HURON EXPOSITOR. • establishment of a chair of Jewish litera- ture in Columbia College, the College administration having consented. The question of schools came' up, and it was hoped they could unite with other de- nominations in the solution of a satisfac-- tory system. If their voice was not re- cognized by Christians, then they would feel obliged to advocate a purely secular • system of schools. —The Cornwall Freeholder of last week says: MissMinnie Craig, a former teacher in the Public Schools, left on if not "sick a -bed," sick on your feet, Wednesday for Ottawa, where she has sick while at your business, lessonyour I been enga ed as a sessional clerk in one snap and yigor, and so lose you money. Cheap things, when they are poor things (as in most cases they are), cost far more than good things. You buy a cheap trunk. It bursts asunder in com- pliance with the effort and prayer bf the baggage -slinger, betrays secrets, lets cats out of the bag, and so costs far more money, and pains besides, than a good one. You buy a suit of cheap clothes., They look cheap to commence with. It is net a good business recommendation to "look cheap." In three weeks the gloss is worn off. They fade as a leaf. In six weeks they look as much worn as a really good texture of cloth would be in four months. You pay for two suits of clothes more than for one good one. You get from them neither wear, quali- ty, nor style. You do get a second or third-rate recommendation from them to that class of people who judge a man by the "cut of his jib," and, grumble at it as much as you may, these are a very necessary class of people to make a good impression on. So cheap dressing is very extravagant dressing. Economy means the purchase and use of the very best articles, so as to get the very best out of them. A sick horse may be bought for a little money, to be of little or no use, a care on your mind, an expense to your pocket, and a bring- er to you of nothing but worry. This is an extravagant horse. Competition, which seeks to lower the price of every- thing, is the death of trade. It cuts down lower and lower until at last no profit is left anyone. Then the factory stops. The workman has nothing to do. The boss fails, absconds, or goes into other business. Competitive cheap labor does not tend to make artists. It does tend to make imitators, copyists, and counterfeits. A skilled needle-woman— one who took an artistic pride in. her work—said to me after a week's experi- Dne in one of New York's great retail bazaars, where scores of cheap dresses in the latest style" were turned out daily: "There is no encouragement in our workshop for good, careful, pains- taking work. The girl who can rush the most thread through the most yards of cloth, and turn out the most dresses in reality not much more than basted to- gether, is the one best praised and best paid by her employer.' When you buy such a dress you encourage the making of shams, imitations, counterfeits. You encourage work done without conscience, and only for:cash. You discourage hon- esty. You discourage the doing of work in which should be put brains, skill, care, conscience, and time. That is an- other name for artistic work. You are helping on fraud. You help rascality. Yon oppose yourself to justice and fair dealing. If you buy where you can buy the cheapest, without regard to anything save the getting of an article for the least possible money, you are encouraging fraud and injustice. You complain that your labor is illy, paid. Yet when you hunt for the cheap* est article and -patronize the man deter- cately flavored beverage which may save us mined to sell lower than all,you are put- many heavy doctors' bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a conetitution of the ,departments. Mists Craig's knowledge of shorthand; which she acquired' in Mr. 1i. S. O'Brien's school in Cornwall, qualified her 'for the posi- tion. • —Says the Toronto World: One of the most congenial open fireplaces in the city of Toronto is in the members' smok- ing -room down at the Parliament Build- ings.

A picture worthy of an artist would be to transcribe to canvas Mr. Ballantyne, -of Perth, Mr. Blezard, of Peterboro, or good-natured looking Mr.. Rayside, of. Glengarry, as they sit before the old fire- place discussing the Weather and crops with Moses Oates and puffing continually at a big -bowled pipe, the ruddy glare from the burning logs throwing a legisla- tive halo of wisdom around their ample persons. —Christendom has 36 reigning mon- archs. Ten of these are nominally Catholics. -Of the balance, two—the Cza'r, and the King of Hellenes—belong to the Greek church, although two differ- ent branches of it. The other 24 are Protestant, 16 of whom are Lutherans'; fonr belong to the Evangelical confes- sion, three to the Reformed church, and one is the head of the Church of Eng- land. —It is reported that two Englishmen, displaying the American flag, recently imprisoned a Hebrew merchant of Alca- zar, Morocco, for debt, took him in chains to Tangier, parading him through three towns on the way, the outrage being aggravated by the fact that it was inflicted during the period of the Pass- over. The principal , Hebrews of Tan- gier have joined in an appeal to the French, Portuguese 'and British Consuls for assistance in 8,n attempt to have all the Governments unite in an effort to suppress the system of consular abuses under which these outrages are perpetrated. —F. W. Flowernew, a farmer, who resides near Lincoln, Nebraska, was at- tacked on the 18th inst. by an enraged steer; and a desperate struggle between man and beast followed. Flowerdew seized the steer by the nostrils, and for over half an hour they fought, the far- mer gradually working his way towards his house. s In front of the house he secured a heavy stick and belabored the brute over the head until he fell to the ground exhausted. Although the ani- mal was fast failing from loss of blood it gored the farmer horribly, and he will die. The steer, from loss of blood and exhaustion, fell dead at his side. RE4 ESTATE FOR SAL.

If you are making brooms for a living and he is selling them, it is his aim to force you, directly or indirectly, to make your brooms for the least possible money. The world of manufacture is now engaged in the endeavor to make everybody (16 its work for as little money as possible in making as good an article as possible. When you go into the manufacture of shoes or hats you set your wits at work to get other people's labor for the least possible money in making those boots or hats. You want the work done and the raw material raised for you and brought to you for the least possible money. You don't care whether Tom, Diela or Harry, who grows the article, or prepares it, or freights it to you, gets a fair price for his work or not. You don't care how they live or whether they get enough to eat or wear. You don't know them. You don't want to know them. All you want of them is their strength, skill, and intelligence for as little money as possi- ble, so that when all that strength and skill comes to you in the shape of a hat or coat, a pair of shoes, a kettle, a shovel, or a tin pan, you can get four, six, eight or ten times as much for the work yon do in selling it as they have done in getting it ready for you to sell. If you (be you la,borer, merchant, capis ta.list or trade unionist) buy a very good article at a very low price, you congratu- late yourself on having made a good bargain. Do you ask, Was the man fairly paid for hie labor who made this article ?" Do I ask it? When I am trying to beat down the price do I not say, with the psalmist, "It is naught— it's a poor piece of goods anyway ;" but when I am gone my way do I not boast of -my bargain and hold it up before my neighbors and say: "Lo I I bought this pan for a nickel—but it costeth 10 cents elsewhere?"

Dear Sir: I feel it my duty to inform you how highly satis- fied I am with the double cased gold Columbus. watch I purchased from you some months ago. 1 care not how much money is paid for a watch, it is impossible for any watch to keep more cor- rect time than mine, as I have not touched it for over three months, except to wind it up, and I compare it every little while with the leading regulators, which finds my watch correct. I write this to let you know how satisfied I am with my purchase, and in my case have found all you said to be sincerely true. Yours truly, F. H. Wean,. Waterloo, Feb. 3rd, 1887. 1 got this watah so wond'nens cheap That I could scarce believe it good, But science with its searchings deep, Has done what custom never could, And I have proved the truth of this That highest value must attach To that which never goes amiss, The American "Columbus" watch. Its neatness is as unsurpassed As its good qualities are proved, 'Tis aacurate and made to last, A watch by punctual men approved. An able judge would pick them out Of every maker's in a batch, And none who tries will ever doubt Papst's great "-Columbus" watch. The makers to the public sell Their watches at the lowest price, And all they do they do it well, Without one trait of false device. They don't incur a dime of debt, They have no doubtful schemes to hatch, And never has been equalled yet, The American " Columbus " watoh.
