It is an acknowl- icsat that employes of a railroad _ re a responsibility for the transit of freight committed to their hands They cannot qntifc in the middle of a trip so as to endanger property. A principle is thtiH established that will go far to alle­ viate the hardships caused by railroad atarikes in the future. Mir Orange production in Florida has increased from 600,000 boxes in 1885 to 6,500,000 boxes during the last season. It is now a common fruit everywhere. Elderlv neople can well remember when in their childhood an orange was the great­ est luxcry, and the staple article for the Christinas present. It was smelled of and admired for days before the precious fruit was eaten. A child now days would baidly tbink the present of an orange worth a thank-you. |gr The pulpit is causing public atten­ tion to itself through novel incidents just j BOW. The Rev. Robt. Mclntyre, of Den­ ver, has created a sensation among his j congregation by asking that his salary of f5,000 be reduced to $1,000. He j thinks the sum he receives at present is j at least twice as large as it should be in hard times. This is not more remarka- j We however, than the unusual announce-: ment from a church of Warren, Pa., one j of the wealthiest towns of its size in that state, a Sunday or two ago, when the | pastor announced that there were a num­ ber of members of the church who werel giving more than they could really j Afford. |®" The beautiful white buildings of the exposition will be sold as junk. They will soon be advertised to be knocked down to the highest bidder. About the only things of future use in them are the Iron, steel arches and timbers. It is thought that not more than a million dollars will be realized from the auction. The Manufacturers and Liberal Arts building, which cost $1,600,000, will of necessity, it-is believed, owing to the magnitude of the undertaking, be given to the man who will tear it down and cany the debris away. Each arch of the building contains 20 carloads of steel, y rivited firmly together. MFThe young Canadian idea seems ^ *0 shoot toward being a lawyer. There an not many openings in business life in Canadian towns, and that may account 14 for the eagerness for professional careers, la Toronto, with a population of less tbaa 200,000, there are 600 practicing lawyers. The Canadian Law Journal warns the young man to seek something ; else. It is possible that the advice is not amiss in this country. It says to ambi- . tious young men from the law schools: C • "Yes, young friends, whilst we acknowl edge your learning and acumen and your fitness for judicial preferment, we Must remind you that unfortunately the country is already overcrowded with men fast a clever and pushing as yourselves. Who are now vainly struggling for the • wherewithal to pay even their yearly fees v tic the society, to say nothing of that which is necessary to sustain life even on Ik.-, the most economical basis." SMIOUU* SUGGESTIONS There are reasons for expecting that tho nest thrco or four weeks will be more oppressive and more trying to health and strength than the main part of the sum­ mer. The human system is more or less weakened by the long strain and, more­ over, vegetation is beginning to decay, thus tending to engender malaria. A few simple hin+s for healthful living, based upon the best sanitary and medical opinion, will be found worth heeding. As to food: Flesh meats should be used sparingly, avoiding gross fats. Far­ inaceous foods, such as rice, oatmeal and cracked wheat are excellent; also most vegetables in their season. Fruits can hardly be used to excess, but great care is imperative in seeing to it that they are thoroughly rips, yet not is the slightest degree decayed. Perfect keshnsss is essential. As to drink: Pure water, pure milk, tea and coffee, not too strong or in exces­ sive quantities; lemonade, lime juice, lac- tart, drinks containing a portion of fruit syrups are all good. Ice water is dan­ gerous if taken hastily, in large quanti­ ties particularly if the person is heated. The advice to sip ice cold drinks through a straw is wise. Alcoholic liquors of every sort should be even more severely let alone than at any other period of the year. The peril from contaminated water is now at its heighth, and too great watchfulness in that respect is im­ possible. ^ Bathing at least every other day--for most people every day--promotes com­ fort, cleanses the system from disease germs, assists nature to keep up a vigor­ ous physical and mental tone. Bay rum or liquid amonia makes a usefuljaddition to the bath. The clothing should continue to be light, thin flannels having a large place in the late summer wardrobe. Keep the head cool. There are summer hats that are really comfortable, and others that only look so. Avoid the "stovepipe" hat until the season for the use of stoves re­ turns. But watch against catching cold. August and September colds have brought many a person to a consump­ tive grave. It is a wise precaution now when leaving home for the city or a long drive, or even a brisk walk, to carry on the arm a wrap or light overcoat. As to sleep: See that ventilation is perfect, that plenty of sunshine enters the bed chamber every day, preferably in the forenoon. Drainage, cellars, closets, kitchen sinks need attention pre-eminent­ ly. Householders should attend to this in person or secure the services of an ex­ pert. If one is a lodger he will do well to satisfy himself; or, if in doubt find a lodging where there is no chance for doubt. It is mainly in the night time, when the body is relaxed by sleep, that foul air does its deadly work. Finally keep cool in temper. Do not frett. Do not worry. Do not overwork. Do not procrastinate and yet avoid haste. Look on the bright side of things. Maintain a good conscience. And when October's frosts clarify the atmosphere those who have faithfully observed the conditions of wholesome living will be in vigorous trim for coming events.--£x.

Hon. J. S Morrill, senator from Yermont, at 83 fears of age, only one year younger than Mr. Gladstone, after 39 years of consecu­ tive service in Congress, stood up in the Senate the other day and delivered one of the strongest and most vigorous Speeches made in favor of the repeal of the Sherman law. He is the equal of Mr. Gladstone in health, vigor and mental clearness. Then there is David Dudley Field, at 88, vigorous yet and taking ,|>art in the discussions of questions of the day with all the enthusiasm of youth, «nd Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, the most youthful of all the old boys, who writes as fresh and charming as ever and enjoys life of the present.

I predict that 10 years from now familiar ice wagon will be a novelty up­ on the streets of a city, so general will have been the adoption of artificial re­ frigeration. For a long time brewers, pork packers and storage men have been independent of the ice crop, and the in­ troduction of the cold air pipe lines down town has supplanted the use of ice in ho­ tels, restaurants and barrooms except, wherein it is desired to make a display of the crystal commodity. In time tl.t- distribution of cold air will be as general in cities as is gas or water, and the sys­ tem will be perfected whereby the re­ frigerating gas necessary for attachment} to a family refrigerator will be delivered tank just like carbonated water is fountains, once a month or .--St. Louis Globe-Demosrat. in a tank it to the so0a as reqaifed.- Doellnf In France. Until within a few yews dueling in Prance was so common that 5,000 such encounters were fought every year. The vast majority of these occurred in the army, but in 1890 M. de Freycinet, the minister of war, discouraged the prac­ tice and rendered it optional under cir­ cumstances in which it had been consid­ ered imperative. Among civilians, how­ ever, the game goes merrily on, being chiefly sustained by angry politicians or excited journalists. It was calculated in 1886 that since 1870 847 duels had been fought in France outside the army. In only nine instances were any of the combatants disabled, while 98 per cent of those engaged left the field unscathed. --London Tit-Bits.
