At lea»t so I am told, aa I never bad

Canada is considered aa a safe reposi
tory for money. At least this is the
verdict of a great many cashiers and in
the matter of handling money they
ought to know what they are talking
a trout. They are very expert in the
business, and some of them suddenly
take trips for their health, and Canada
is the sojourning place.

Did you ever stop to think of the
dishonesty that is prevalent in the
world. Cashiers ol banks are not the
only men in the country who run off
with other people’s money. The com

live clerk is found in every community;
the over-reaching merchant; the dis
honest in every department of life even
up to the highest circles. No wonder
the divine Book says that there shall
be no false weights and measures in
heaven. No wonder Alexander Pope
wrote: “An honest man’s the noblest
work of God.” No wonder Diogenes
was found hunting at noon through the
streets of an ancient city with a lantern,
in search of an honest man

The celebrated spurgeon preached a
sermon one day from a given text upon
the subject of honesty. It was listened
to with great interest by the congrega

sister and stopping her he a«ked if she

BROWN’S IRON BITTERS
Saoee«*ful Core Growing-
At the Illinois experiment station,
where corn culture has been for several
years a subject of observation, planting
at abont one inch in depth has been fol
lowed by larger crops, on the average,
than deeper planting. Corn planted at
the rate of one kernel every twelve inches
ia rows 3 feet 8 inches apart, gavea large)
average yield of grain than when planted
either thicker or thinner. Better results
were obtained from plauting in hills than
in drills, apparently because in hill cnl
ture the corn could be kept cleaner. No
appreciable benefit has been derived from
frequent cultivation nor from cultiva
tion after the ordinary time. For three
years the yield has been increased to the
extent of one-fourth by shallow cultiva
tion. No practical benefit was received
from the use of commercial fertilizers.
The increased yields from the use of
stable manure probably repaid the cost
of the application and left some profit

Gianettini rushed forward, shouting:

The young man did not stir.
“Have you finished?" he said, in a good
humored tone. “Wherefore these hard
words? Have you never loved. Signor
Gianettini? Have you totally forgotten
the feelings of your youth? Know you
not that since I was ten years old and
Maria five we have loved each other
fondly? Will you not, then, allow ns to
hallow your old age with our tears?”
“1 don’t want to have a parcel of beg

roughly.

“You surely forget yourself.”
“Not 1, indeed,” returned the father.
”1 refuse my consent Therefore get

“Bat hear me for one moment,”
pleaded the gondolier.
“ ’Tis useless. 1 again repeat that

ter. Your position ia too mean.”
“Certainly, you are rich,” replied the
young man; “bat what hinders that I
should become so too? A stoat arm, a
brave heart, an honest soul will, with
the help of heaven, do much."
“A fool's dream!”
“Nay,” said Antonio, “it is sober sense.
Prince Lorenzo de Medici was a mer
chant; Duke Giacomo Siorza a cowherd.”
The man in the corner had hearkened
attentively to this dialogue. He rose
aud, touching Barbarigo’s shoulder, said:
“Well spoken, gondolier. Courage brings
success, and struggles bring conquests.
Maria shall be my wife.”
“Never!” cried Gia-ettinL
“Master Jew,” said the unknown,
turning disdainfully toward him, “if
this youth could lay down 600 pistoles
would you object to the marriage?”
“Be that as it may, you must remem
ber that he is now little better than a
pauper.
“Pshawl” said the unknown;, “bab
blers are more tireeome than thieves.
Before tomorrow you shall handle that
sum.”
So saying he drew from his pocket
piece of parchment and a crayon, and
turning toward a table began rapidly to
sketch a man’s hand. It was repreeent-
ed open, impatient, with hollow palm,
as'if expecting a shower of gold pieces.
It had, so to speak, a senspons, avari
cious expression, acid one of the fingers
was encircled with a massive ring.
” "Tis my hand," cried Gianettini.
“And your history,” said the artist.
. Giving the sketch to Antonio, its au
thor desired him to carry it to Pietro
Benvois, librarian at the palace of St
Mark, aad demand in exchange for it WO

“Six hundred fools’’headsT cried the
innkeeper. “I would not give a xecchin j
for it”
Without speaking the artist turned
haughtily'away.
The gondolier took the parchment and -
looked at it with astonishment He then
turned doubtfully toward Maria, but a
glance from her soft dark eyes reas- 1
sured him, and he set out on his mission.
With folded arms and a moody brow
the artist commenced pacing up and
down the large room in the hostelry,
casting at intervals a scrutinizing glance
at the young girl, who, now penitent for
her intended crime, was silently praying
in a corner. As for Gianettini, he seem

The Firat Umbrella.
It is generally stated that it is to Jonas
Hanway, the well known philanthropist,
that we are indebted for tlie valuable ex
ample of moral courage in first carrying
a raised umbrella in the streets of Lon
don. It is difficult now to conceive the
amount of persecution which this strange
proceeding entailed upon that honorable
gentleman, whose object was doubtless
less the protection of his own person
thkn that of showing his countrymen
bow they-might protect themselves from
drenching showers.
Long after they had come into occa
sional use, a gentleman, accompanied by
lady, nnder the shelter of the new
style rain protector, was booted at by
grown men as he passed along. A gen
tleman who chanced to be alone with a
raised nmbrella on the streets of either
London or Liverpool was in constant
danger of assault from the howling mob
that was sure to follow at his heels.—St.
Louis Republic.
Wabash*. Hartllag Reporter.
“The most energetic hustler I ever
had,” said a news editor, “was a young
man who used to flourish at Wabash.
He would board incoming trains, inter
view the conductors and get reports of
accidents the whole length of that and
connecting systems. ; If a man in town
smashed a finger the correspondent
wonld fix it up as a terrible calamity
and make a readable special oat of it.
He corresponded for papers all over the
country ^and advertised Wabash as
scene of constant calamity and blood
shed.”—Indianapolis Sentinel.
Calamities that swell the death rate of
a nation—epidemics, for instance—in
variably bring abont an increase in the
number of marriages; poverty and want,
however, constitute exceptions to thia
general rule.
