Thosewho work by the day receive from 8 to 10 cents, with a noonday meal; at the planting and harvesting of rice, wages are double (with five meals), or 30 cents without any food. Land owners seldom hire hands, except for a, few days dur- ing the planting and harvesting of rice; thoseswho have more land than they and their sons can till, lease it to their neighbors. Much of the country is held on leases given by accident proprietors -to clansmen, whose descendants now till it. paying a modicum in rice by way of rent. Food averages little more than Elia month for each member of a farm- er's family. One who cooks and eats his meals ,alone spends $1.50 or so a month upon the raw material and fuel. Two pounds of rice costing less than 4 cents: with relishes of salt fish, pickel- ed cabbage, cheap vegetables and fruits (costing but little) is the ordinary al- lowance of each laborer per day. Aber- " nethy's advice to a luxurious patient. "Live on sixpence a day and earn it," is followed by, nearly every Chinaman; in fast, one or two dependent relatives frequently share his sixpence with him. COST OF gillagiCi. ENGLAND.

IT'S DANGEROUS GROUND that you stand on -with a cough or a cold, and your blood inipure. Out of just these conditiona:oofnee consumption. You muet do something. In the earlier stages of consumption, and in all the con- ditions that lead to itf Dr Pierce''s Golden Medical Discovery is a sure remedy. This scrofulous affection of the lungs, like every other form of Scrofula can be cured by it, In severe, lingering coughs, all bronchial, throat and lung affections, and every dis- ease that can be reaohed through the blood, it is the only medicine so effeotive that it can beiguaranteed. If it doerui't:benefit or cure, you have your money hook. Nervous prostration and debility are conquered by it. THE CONVICT'S DREAM. The moon looked in on hie lonely cell, The barren floor and the untouched fare, And its holy veil on his wan face fell And covered the pain and sin marks there; And a smile, the first for many a day, The first for many a weary year, Crept over his lips as he sleeping lay, And banished the look of haunted fear. He dreamed that, a boy again. he strayed Afar in the glowing, dying wood; The golden sunlight around him played, And the ripe nuts fell with a pleasant thud. Again a squirrel, in fearsome fright, Sought shelter up in a whispering tree, And a rabbit, wild in its eager flight, Dashed into the bushes tremblingly. And again, grown weary of wandering play, He turns his steps to his welcome home, Where a face as sweetas a sweetJune ay TIMCREDIT HABIT. Buying goods on credit is largely a matter of habit, as every merchant. knows. If people could not obtain credit they would find some means of paying cash for their purchases. The best proof of this is found in. the case of railroad traveling. People know that if they do not pay cash for their tickets they cannot travel, The fact is not regarded as a hardship. It is ac- cepted as a matter of course. And when rich or poor want to go any place the money for the trip is prompt- ly forthcoming. '\ How is it that a rule that works all right in one business will not work satisfactory in another? Why should it be more of a hardship to pay cash for grgceries than to ay cash for rail- road; 'tickets? All that the change from credit to cash. means is simply a laying low for week or two and catch- ing up.It is just as easy and a good deal.cheapeg,.and certainly,more,satis- factory to pay for goods when you buy them, as it is to pay for them a week afterwards. People who buy goods on credit are led into purchasing things they can get alongg. dory well without. In this way they keep ,on , mortgaging their futures. 'The money earned: to -day goes to pay for the pnrchases of yesterday, while the ;pntnbases ,of to -day are a charge against the earnings of to-mortoww. In this way life becomes nothing but a soul wearying attempt to climb to the top of the mountain that rises propor- tionately higher with every step up its side. The credit habit is bad for every - WO, and ought to be discarded. O A Boos TO HORSEMEN. -One bottle of Eng- lish Spavin Liniment completely removed a curb from my horse.

A railway which the Germans have built in Asia Minor, extending from Ismid, a harbor about 00 miles east of Constantinople, east by south to An- gora, has as little wood in it, perhaps, as any in the world. Not only the rails and bridges, but the ties and tele- graph poles are of iron. A novel shaving record has been established by a Hungarian barber, He made a bet of 100 florins that he would on a railroad journey of 29 min- utes, from Pistyan to Neustadt, shave fifteen men without cutting them. The bet was more than won, for he actually shaved three more than the stipulated number. d JUMPS uEa.,sinstresauig :Kid -Ietimiling=a=grooting-toshersonis-,---- """"°- hours by the "Naw GREAT SOUTH AMERICAN KIDNEY Conn."

It is generally supposed that when a man's heart pulsations go down to 40 a minute death will follow unless restor- atives are administered. Parsian doc- tors are now, it is said, puzzled over a man in one of the hospitals, whose pulsations have sunk as low as,eighteen a minute, although to all appearances he is well and strong. "My boyl my boy!" and the lips olose meet, And she listens with earnest, loyelitleyes, While he tells of the day's work, sad and sweet, And his wonderful hope that in future lies. But the moonlight fades -and he awakes, For a moment a blank -and then a sob From the white drawn lips in anguish breaks And tears his heart with a mighty throb. His boyhood is past -the mother sleeps Where his sob no answering love can wake; And he thinks of his life and weeps and weeps Till it seems the bursting heart must break. God pity him there! And pity the men Who languish behind the prison wall, Who look on the past through the eyes of sin, And long for the love beyond recall. Let Thy love, like the moonlight, sweat and still, Steal over them -bid their anguish case - And speak that word with a holy thrill; "Behold; l: forgive thee, brother. Peace!" A BEAUTIFUL CUSTOM. Iniaome portions of Tirol a peculiar and beantifnl custom still prevails. When a girl is about to be married, before she leaves her home to go to church her mo- ther hands her a handkerchief "which is called a tear handkerchief: It is made of newly Spun linen and has never been used. It is with this handkerchief that she dries her tears' when she • leaves her father's House and , while she stands at the altar. After the marriage is over and the bride has gone with her hnaband to their new home, she folds up the handkerchief, and places it unwashed in " her linen closet, where it remains nSle,liuiic3- ,.: 'The tear Ilan tetolbiet has :only performed half of its'mieaion; tlhildret -:aro horn, grow up, snarly and move sway from the old home. jach,tiiegliter receives from the mother a new bandkerohiof; her own still romaine where it was placed in the linen closet on -the day of the tnerriage.
