London, I)«cember21.—I saw Col. Oliver
•’nine, of Ohio, at the Charing Cross hotel
this afternoon. He is stopping here a few
days before going on to the south of Franco
•where he will spend the remainder of the
•winter.
"You have just come from New York,”
said I, "and, perhaps you can give some
information as to the report that the
Standard oil company is interested in a gas
franchise in tha' city?”
“No, I cannot,” said he. I withdrew
from the Standard oil company two years
mgo. I am not in any way actively con
nected with its affairs. One of its stock
holders may have purchased a gas franch ise
Jn New York, but I could not say whether
the company is concerned in the matter
or not. I would prefer not to say anything,
as I know nothing about it. I am endeav
oring now to get as far away from business
as possible. My retirement from thefStand-
ard oil company was bona fide. X am reul-
>y out of it, and am now in Europe to en
joy a visit which I have long looked for
ward to with great pleasure. I was never
here hut once before. That was three
..years ago. 1 w s iiere then but for a short
»Jmc, having come over to join my sister,
whose little child died in J’aris. I have
been a very busy man most of mv life, and
I think I am now entitled to a little rest.
So you must not ask me anything about
the affairs of the Standard oil company.”
"Hut as to polities, what shape do things
seem to he taking in the United States for
1888?”
" It Is too early to make reliable esti
mates. We have yet two winters bcioro
the next presidential campaign and great
changes may take pla-c in the aspect of
affairs before that time. The present ses-
■sion of congress will probably be conipara
tiveiy unimportant, but some grave ques
tions must come up for solution at the fol
iowing session, ana out of the solution or
attempted solution of those questions new
Issues may arise for public consideration,
and new issues frequently bring out new
and unexpected men.”
"I suppose you mean that congress must
take np, among other things, the tarili and
ithe treasury surplus?”
“Something must lie done ubout the
(treasury surplus very soon, otherwise there
vwtJJ ifee a financial panic. There is no im-
unedlate danger of this, but the issue must
be met, face to face, before long. Every
body is afraid to undertaae the revision of
(the tarilf That there are inequalities and
absurdities in the present law nobody can
deny. Hut there can tie no unanimity of
procedure with reference to its adjustment
to the needs of the present Uuy. Wo
might cut down the internal revenue. We
might take half the tax off whiskey and
all the tax off tobacco. The latter is no
longer a luxury—it is a necessity almost us
great as bread, and it used mostly by the
poor. It would he a blessing, therefore,
the workingman if the tax thereon
■wore removed. But everybody is timid
about undertaking these reductions. The
party that leads in the reduction of the tax
on whisky incurs the hostility of the tem
perance element, and there it is that you
are offending a large and important ol -
meutand running a political risk. Our
men who go to congress now are perhaps
■not as courageous us they ought to he, and
thut is why congress hesitates so much
about dealing with questions that are
growing bigger and more dangerous every
.day."
"But if the surplus in the treasury goes
• on increasing, no reductions in I he revenue
being accomplished, wh it ought to be
• done with the money?”
'"Of course, we would have to dispose of
It in some way. Wo could not keep it
rAhore. Somebody Imd suggested that we
might loan it out to the banks. That
would never do. It would lie practically
giving u brokerage business to the govern
ment. i think Mr. Tilden’s suggestions as
to coast defenses excellent. We might
lay out a great deal of money in coaBl de
fenses and in the construction of a navy.
Public opinion seems to lie moving that
way. It is a shame that we should have
no navy after having spent more money
flfor one than either France or Italy. We
•ought to have a great navy for the uutbor-
dty and the honor, if it be for no other rea
sons. The dignity of a great country like
-tiurs ought to lie supported by a great
navy, tiiough there might lie never so little
(prospect of war.”
"Is Mr. Cleveland going to be a strong
-candidate for the presidency nt the next
election?”
“Ah I have already said, we have yet two
sessions of congress before the next elec
tion, and we can’t tell wind men und issues
will come to tile surface. The mugwumps
are still very enthusiastic over Mr. Cleve
land. X am not a mugwump. 1 believe in
the definite division of parties. 1 believe
in the llxing and maintaining of party re
sponsibility when a party is in power.
The government of the country ought to
•-The distinctly chargeable to that party, and
ill ought to stand or fall upon tile applica
tion of this rule. But again, 1 repeat, it is
Marly.”
When very young children are deprived
of their natural nourishment it is diilieult
■to procure a proper substitute therefor;
hence the alarming mortality among in
fants. Mellin’s Food, which is recom
mended by tlie highest medical authori
ties, lias been prepared to meet this very

Tile NixtskeH of Life.
Somebody hns condensed the mistakes
of life, and arrived at the conclusion that
there are fourteen of them. Most people
would say, if they told the truth, there
was no limit to the mistakes of life; that
they were like the drops in the ocean or
i the sands of the shore in numbers, hut it is
wteli to be accurate. Here, then, are four-
teen great mistakes: It is a great, mistake
ilo set up our own standard of right and
tan-ong, and judge people accordingly; to
. _ - 1 by
mvn; to expect uniformity of opinion in
this world; to look for judgment and ex
perience in youth; to endeavor to mold all
dispositions alike; not to yield to immate
rial trifles; to look for perfection in ourowri
actions; to worry ourselves and others
with what cannot be remedied, and not to
alleviate all that needs alleviation as far as
lies in our power; not to make allowances
for the infirmities of others; to consider
everything impossible that we cannot per
form; to believe only what our finite minds
can grasp; to expect to be able to under
stand everything.

Tin: Merriest liar.
What other day from year to year
Ho fills the souls of men with cheer;
What memories arc half so sa cet
As those that in devotion meet
On Christman morning ?
The dawn upon the world’s long night
Of iiini Ood sent to give it light
Hath spiingofjoy and blessedness,
That faileth not norgroweth less,
On Christmas morning.
I cannot hear the Christmas chimes,
Or liHt toChristmas -ingers’ rhymes,
Hut tenderer my spirit grows,
And gladness all my speech o’erflows,
On Christmas morning.
I cannot greet our young or old
But merry wishes manifold
Iteturn t i mo, for like my own,
All hearts appear wide open thrown
On Christmas morning.
Our Christmas day on eartli may bo
How few God knoweth —only He;
Yet may our lives so Christiike grow
Each day our hearts shall feel the glow
On ChrlHtnms morning.
With Christmas cheer for all the year—
A heart set Tree from care and fear—
Our souls may ripe for Advent grow.
And thus each year more gladness know
On Christmas morning.
