AN INTERESTING COMPARISON.
A retrospective glance over the business developments of the year just
ended and a comparison of these derelopments with those of former. years
under D°meecratic rnte must be ex:
tremely gratifying to all good citizens,
and especially to those who voted for
sound money and protection in the
nationsl election of 1896. A study of
business conditions in the first calendar
year which followed the election of
1896 shows a steady improvement.
Trade was relatively better in the
‘West and Northwest, thongh later in
developing than in some other sections.
The flattering condition of the producer of cereals, and especially wheat,
created a prosperity which seems to
have been denied the Southern farmeis,
owing to price depression. Manufacturing was active in nearly all classes of
“products, but particularly in textiles,
iron and steel, leather and farming implenfents. While the ‘results to the
. manufacturer of wool were quite satisfactory, those . reaped by the cotton
manufacturer were far from encours¢ing. Heavy overproduction and Southern competition are credited with being responsible for this. In iron and
steel the tonnage handled was exceeded
only three times before in the country’s
history, and the financial results have
been fairly good in spite of a rather
low range of values, considering the
immensedemand. =.
A Vision of the Future.
One day in October, 1883, Lady A.,
living in Rue dz Bel-Respiro, Paria,
found that she had been robbed of a
gam of 2,500 france. She notified the
commissary of police on Rue Berryer,
who instituted a search and questioned
the servants, but discovered nothing.
Lady A., when enumerating her serv.
aunts, begged the commissary to exclude
from his suspicions her second valet de
chambre, a youth of 19, very good looking, very respectfol, and Yery well
gnalified for his duties, who had been
eicknamed ‘‘le Petit,’’ not on account
of hie stature, for be was rather tall,
but from a feeling of delicate, protecting familiarity which his good qualities
bad won for him. Meanwhile, among
the friends of Ludy A. there had been
x good deal of talk shout a certain
Demoiselle E., who, they said, could
see the most surprising thingsin a bow!
of coffee grounds. M. L. d’Ervieux had
the curiosity to accompany his governess
to the house of this person, and was
quite surprised to hear her describe ex
actly each piece of furniture in Lady
A.’g ‘apartmeut, pass in review her
seven servants, and say thet, though
she could not name the thief, he would
be guillotined witbin tro years. Eorn¢
weeks later ‘‘Je Petit’’ Jeft the servic:
of hie mistress without giving any rea
eon, and two years !atcrhe mounted the
scaffold. This servant, so highly esteem.
ed, was none other than Marchandes «
the assassin. — Arena,
A Few Words on Books.
A good remark somebody made once
$e that if you own books you do not
have to read them. That is, if you hear
of a certain book, you say, “I must get
that out of the library and read it.’’ If
you do 80, it-is necessary to read it at
once and return it. If you can buy it,
you read what portion satisfies your particular want at the moment, and then
there it stands among your other gnod
friends, always ready, like any real
friend, to serve you at a moment’s notice iu any way it can. Indeed, it isa
real friend, because it never deserts you;
never goes back on you, never changes,
unless somebudy borrows it, and that is
net the book’s fault. The mere fact that
your room is filled with books is a good
kind of ivfiuence, for there is something
in the mere proximity of books that
amiakes achap serious occasionally and
induces him to sit and ponder once in
awhile in the midst of his grind, his
sport, his daily work and his other and
less valuable friends at school or college.
Then, too, in these days, when there
are 20 many hundreds of books a year
and 60 many millions already published,
“$t is utterly impossible to try to read, as
the old feliows in the later middle ages
used to, everythingthat is published.
I¢ is fax better to re-read some good, familiar things again and again. They
are good books, they are your especial
favorites, and you will seldom fail tc
find something new in them each time
you read them. It gives you-a little idea
of how much the writing of them must
have’méant to their author if you can
read them, say, 20 times and still go on
finding something you had not succeeded
in discovering in them before. —Harper’s
