Bachelors have done more for the world’s good than the world knows of, and yet for all their kind ness they are the most abused race of humanity that lives. Kvery* body seems to look down on them with a kind of suspicion, and the j fact of the business is, they have 1 come to t. e point where thev can not face anyone, not even the girl ' that has been so fondly clasped in | the embrace of their affection for j years, It is honorable to think of and no aoubt in my mind but wluft many of these dear old brer bachelors have caught their death grieving over the many wretched things that was said and done to them while trying to live in this unfriendly world. But :h s is all right. The scripture tells us that we are not without honor save in our own country, and by and by when we have forgiven all our en emies and give full instructions to the young crop of bachelors who are to be our predecessors, then we aie going to take our flight into a land where there will be no suspi cious characters pointing their fin ger of scorn and no legislators try ing to rob us of our honest toilings for tax because we couldn’t mar ry.

The New York Press asserts that the beautiful golden sponges which are peddled about the streets of the metropolis are the cast-off stock of the hospitals.

"I have seen many monkeys in the coun tr>,” savs the Missourian, “but my fancy had never associated them with orange blossoms. It remind ed me of a negro I once saw in Cuba selling battle; of fiery rum from a basket made of goldetirod.
