Ihis declaration is as antiquated as the' hills, but notwithstanding its antiquity, there are thousands and thousands of people in the world who are either ignorant of its truthfulness, or do not believe it to be true. This assertion based upon facts tbat come under the observation of each and every individual at all observant of the customs an d habits of the people. The laboring classes of this country complain fondly of .the losses they sustain and tmrdens heaped upon them. They complain mnch of the injustice done them through the tariff, which is but a burden of indirect taxation. Of this they have good and broad ground for complaint, and are right in clamoring for 'reform this particular; they complain of monied combines, of trusts, of mo nopoly, of speculators, of those, whom they term middle men, of railroad opprassion, and weary themselves very greatly over what they honestly, and often rightly, believe to be losses they sustain through these. Because these la boring people among us do this, we have no censure for them. Tor if they believe themselves wrong ed they hayg:a right to complain; and that through some, ai least, of the mediums above mentioned, there is heaped upon them bur dens tbat are unjust and grievous to be borne, there is adequate evi dence to satisfy any thinking and investigating mind. And we are glad to see and to know tha't the common people all over this coun try are waking up to their own in terest sufficiently to realize that they are bearing unjust burdens, and to begin to inquire seriously whence these burdens come. Be cause in no other way .will there ever be begotten one grand rally ing, legitimate effort upon the part of the masses of this country to free themselves from any wrongs that may stand in their way to progress and thrift. But while we admit the justice of much of the complaint of the working people of this -country touching the sources above referred to, yet in returning to our text, and argu ing our original proposition, allow us to ask, by way, not of censure, but of waking up thought on this ljne, if one of the heaviest, if not tne heaviest, losses that befall this class of our people is not self im posed,simply because they do not realize and appreciate the, grand, the incontrovertible truth that time .is money? We ask this question not to censure, not to upbraid, not to. blame, not to condemn, but we ask it in that higher, that nobler, that purer spirit; the spirit of good will to all people. Now, reader, if you attempt to answer this question, we suggest that you ask this further question, to-wit; are not those who are the most open and loudest complain- ers on this line, to be found among those who lose the most time? In your investigation, watch for the truth here suggested. Have you not seen and do -you not know in dividuals who complain loudly and talk much because they are charged, it may be, 10 per cent, profit on money or goods advanced to them, and who at the same time spend, weekly, from 16 to 24 per cent, of the time allotted to work, in holiday recreation orotherwiee? The laboring man who spends one day in each week away from Ms business in an unprofitable manner is carrying a self-imposed burden of 16§ per cent, lost time. Can any working inau pay out to no profit such a per cent, of his time and prosper? Is not this per cent of loss much greater than the 10 per cent, paid for money accom modations? Certainly it is, and so will it Appear to each one of us who realize that time is really money. But when we loudly com plain upon the street corners, upon the highways, and everywhere of the 10 per cent, taxation in money levied upon iis by others, and at the same time and in the same place uncomplainingly appropri ate 25 per cent, of our working hours in idleness, we are, to say the least of it, inconsistent, and ad vertise the fact that we do not re gard time as money. Reader, do you spend, weekly, one day from your business? If so, what per cent, of your money are you week ly paying out to no profit? | “I never could see,” briskly ob served Mr. McSwat, according to the Chicago Tribune, as he leaned' a new pane of glass (28x36) care fully against the wall, laid the sasb containing the broken pane on the dining-room table, removed his coat and otherwise^cleared the defek for action, “why a man should pay a glazier a $2 bill for a job of this kind when he can do it him. self for less than half.

At last, however, he bad the sash ready far the reception of the “Lobelia,” he called out, “is the putty ready?” “Of course it is,” she replied. “I worked it until it was soft and nice and put it on the table where yon could get it when you—Ohj Billiger! You’ve knocked it down and trampled it all over my nice rug! “It’ll wash out, Lobelia,” said Mr. McSwat, reassuringly. And he gathered up the putty and roll ed it into a lump again. “Now I’ll put the glass in.

Billiger McSwat the next day paid a $5 bill to a glazier for doing the job, and told him in a voice of thunder to keep the change and be banged to him.

We are in for equal rights and equal rntes to all, and special privileges aud adb vantages to none. Alliancemen of Georgia see it just this way, too. The republican members of the ways and means committee have prepared a tariff bill which they think will catch the farmers. It gives a small proportion of the farmers the advantage of an abso lutely prohibitory duty on Suma tra tobacco, and increases the duty on barley and hops and buck wheat. These will benefit a few farmers, mostlj in New England and New York. It increases the duty on wooden cloth and woollen clothing, and cheapens the cost of no article which the farmer has to buy, except brown sugar. The change in the taxes on wools and woollens will benefit the owners of large flocks, pastured on public land, and injure the many small farmers who keep their sheep as an incident of gfeneral farming.— National Democrat.

The smokeless powder is composed in part of antimony, and since its adoption the price of the metal has gone up from nine and one-quarter cents a pound to thirty-one cents a paund, and scarce at that. Type and stereotype metal contains about twenty per cent, of antimo ny, and hence has advanced in price. » Senator Pettigrew, of South Da kota, has the only herd or buffalo now in existence.
