Your Own Way. There is a story told in old Plymouth aloul a deacon whose pip once escaped from his control, and rather than be caught, struck out into the harbor and started to swim across tho Atlantic. The deacon stood on the shore and in a fatherly way counseled the refractory little beast as follows. "You'd better, come back, piggy! You'd better come back But as piggy kept paddling out to sea, he concluded witl Piggy, you know jnnr own business best! You know your own business and regretfully abandoned lnra to his fate. Piggy 60on reached the end of his career; but In fame survived him; and many a rash and willful person in old Plymouth has received a timely caution in the deacon's fatherly words: "Well, Mr.

Piggy, joa know your own business best!" Human beings like to hate their own wa), but one's own way 19 frequent the worst way a person can have. The limitations which restrain us on every hand are the limitations of mercy. We chase phantoms and plunge into bogs, it is mercy that fences our path across, and hedges np our course. The man who thinks he can do as he pleases soon involves himself, in a maze of troubles; and he who determines have his own way soon finds that his own wa ends in rain and in death. There are persons who will not yield to the conditions of physical existence.

Their restless spirits and turbulent wills resist the timely admonitions of pain, and 1 ejecting the counsels of those wiser than themselves they struggle against disease and rebel against weakness; they refuse to accept the limitations ot physical life; they have their own wa) until death grasps them by the throat, and life is the forfeit of their rashness. Politicians sometimes have their own way, carrying all before them falsehood, craft, deceit and cuile as their allies. They hesi tate at nothing that promises success; they oppress the poor, they frown down the weak, the)' plunder the public treasury, and steal the liberties of nations, until at last the outraged people rise in their might and sweep them away as with the besom of destruction, and that is the end of their having their own way. Monarchs sometimes have their own way, oppressing and triumph ing over Hie heirless, and crushing the poor, until at last some conspira tor's blade or assassin's pistol finish es their career, and shows that even a monarch cannot always have his own way. Some religious institutions arc managed by men who will have their own way, regardless of the rights and privileges ot others; and while honest men ave attending to their business, cheap tricksters are pack ing conventions, making up arranging nominations, bargaining for office, ar.d counting votes in such a way as to make elections a fraud and a iarcc, and representation a de lusion and a snare.

For a time they have their own way; but when intelligent and honest men cleat ly perceive the wrong, they become dis gustcd and alienated, and mstitu cliniilt nrtmminil tho. fft xroueci uy nine cliques 01 scii secn ing worldlings until they gradually sink'into inefficiency and contempt It is not usually well for persons to have their own way; the fact that a man can accomplish a certain end is not proof that it is best for him to do it. A stubborn man will is a verv poor guide in any enterprise. Con science, sound judgment, 'fair deal ing, good counsel and the golden rule.direct us in; paths which are more safe and pleasant. Best of all is the guidance of the Word of life, and the Holy Spirit of God, where by believers are led in ways of trjth and righteousness, and are taught the will, of the Lord, and to obey with joyful hearts.

Man's willful ness is his ruin. Sin is lawlessness bin nrst entered tue world by man forsaking God's will and choosing his own. "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us 'all. Let as accept this sacrifice, and seek to know no will bill the will of God, no way but way his commandments. The Common People.

He was invited to a dinner at Washington. Says he: "There wasn't anything on the table when I got there but some forks and spoons and bricky brac. Presently they brought in some soup. As I nothin' else, I thought I'd cat all the soup I could, though soap is a mighty poor dinner to invite a feller to. So I was helped lour times; and then came 011 the finest dinner I ever saw, and there I sat," he said, "choc full of soup!" Mr.

F. R. Bamhnml, Logansport, writes: "Brown's Iron Bitters' is a serviceable remedy, and does away with indigestion Sapid Transit at Sea. The problem of rapid transit for the Atlantic is still in process of solution. As in the speeding of horses, vessel after vessel has surpassed all previous records, until now one steamer, the Alaska, has made the trip across the Atlantic in less than seven days.

But the builders and shipowners are not satisfied. The time must be still further reduced. Another vessel is building to out do the Arizona and the Alaska. The same company that owns these grayhounds ol the sea" is having built at Glasgow another vessel, the Oregon, to beat the record. She will not be much larger than the Alaska, but her engines are to indicate no less than 13,000 horsepower.

She will have but one screw, about twenty four feet in diameter. Steam will be supplied by twelve boil ers, each with six furnaces three feet sis inches in diameter, the grates being a little over 6ix feet long. The Alaska has nine boilers with six furnaces in each, of about the same size. As the Oregon will burn about twenty pounds of coal per square foot of grate per hour, her consumption in twenty four hours will not be much less than 300 tons, equaling the amount transported by twenty five coal cars. The water consumed each day in the production of steam will amount to 2,700 tons.

If the water were supplied to a town, allowing four cubic feet or twenty five gallons per day per ead, it would snltice for a population of 24,000 souls. The total weight of water evaporated on the run across the Atlantic will not be far short of three times that of the whole ship's cargo, engines and all. We give these figures to enable onr readers to form some idea of what 13,000 horse power means: and we mav supplement them by adding that it is equivalent 10 jons uirea a 1001 high every minute, or the same weight lutea feet in twenty four hours. Assuming that she makes twenty knots an hour, or, omitting; fractions, 2.028 feet per minute the thrust of her screw that is to say, the force pushing: her ahead through tho water will amount to ninety four tons, or about as much as twenty of the most powerful locomotive engines. The coal required for one trip oi tne uregon wm amount to about 2, 500 tons, orenoujrh to load 200 coal cars.

These figures will give a fair conception of the enormous size of modern ocean steamers as compared with the largest machinery on land. Getting Even. The Bowl ins Green (Kv.1 Democrat thus severely criticises a female solicitoi who was recently in that place drumming np subscribers for her paper, and who, upon leaving, pronounced the Bowling Green girls the homeliest in the state: "Our readers will doubtless remember the old maid who was deaf, and ate onions, too, who visited Bowling Green a few months ago in the interest oi a little sheet, from which wo clip the above brilliant scintillation and corrns cation of wit. How she can have the temerity to refer to the subject of 'homeliness' we can't iivine. But we thought at the time that she had a monopoly in the 'homely' business, for on that score we decided, at first sight, that she should be awarded the cake, the bakery, all the flour on hand, and several future wheat crops.

She is 32 Years old. six feet high, and, from her form, we should judge her weight to be about Sol pounds. Shi i wears a urug store complexion; waicry, light gray eyes, bad teeth, and a num ber of other garments that remind one of ante bellum days. She is bow legged, pigeon toed, and uses an ear trumpet, but, unfortunately, is not dumb. She came to Bowling Green and received numberless courtesies from the ladies, some of whom personally assisted her in taking subscriptions for her paper seT eral copies of which, by the way, have failed to come).

She was here only about two days. She did not attend church nor the theater, and how she so readily made np her little mind about our girls' is not accounted for, save by the principle that 'to the homely all things are homely, which some poet ought to have said if he has not. She will need several regiments as a military protection should she dare to visit Bowling Green again." Is Gen. 'Walker Unmarried? It is calculated that for every woman who has plenty of means to dress with there are fifteen who will trv to follow her in style even though they have hard iy enougn to cat ana are bored to death by creditors. Detroit Free Press.

And yet Gen. Walker's census figures show that men in the United States more money in dress than women. The fijrurcs are $493,000,000 for men and $317,000,000 for women. The male average is $45 a year, the female $27. Boston Globe.

The Coming Cow. The position that tho cow" to be one well adapted for both beef and milk production, we believe to )x correct, if it bo not pushed too far. There is an increasing number of dairy farmers who find it best to give almost exclusive attention to the quantity and quality of tho milk given by their cows, caring little about their merits as beef makers. So there are beef prod ucin farmers who properly count it a disatC vantage if a cow gives a large flow of milk. This is true on the Western plains.

It is true of such farmers as J. t), Gillette, who only ask of a cow that she shall produce and feed a calf each year. But both these classes form but a minority of cattle raisers. The most successful dairymen and the producers of the yery finest beef animals may be found in these classes; but the great majority of cows and of steers for beef are, and long will continue to be, raised by men who cannot afford to ignore either the milk giving or the meat producing quality. For such men the popular breed must be one with deserved claims to good quality in both directions.

It is quite possible that several breeds may, in the future, be claimants for highest merit for this double purpose, but the course of breeding now adopted by the special friends of most leading breeds is calculated to develop one of these fnalities at the expense of the other, 'he short horn has never been surpassed If equaled, as a general purpose cow." Ought she to lose all reputation as a dairy cow? Breeder? Gazette. No Cause for Fretting. It la estimated that the coal deposits in this country will be exhausted inside of 1,000 years. This doesn't cause us any uneasiness. There is a stove in the market that "saves fifty per cent, of the fuel," and next year some genius will be sure to bring out another heating arrangement that will "save fifty per cent, more coal than any other stove ever invented." And thus all our coal will be saved.
