There is no doubt that Governor Baldwin pleased most of the citizens of this state when he put the stamp of disapproval upon legislative divorces which in some instances might repre- sent political pull rather than justie These are the emphatic sentiments with which he closed his message to the general assembly on the sukumt ‘“The institution of marriage is one of the maln pillars of civilized society. By a large part of our people it is viewed as a sacrament of religion; by oll it is regarded as something to be carefully safeguarded. No marriage, in my judgment, ought to be dissolved by any state, except through the action of a judieial tribunal, proceeding under general laws which are equally applic- able to all. The general assembly is in no sense a judicial tribunal.” The chance is that the man or wo- man who finds it necessary to appeal to the legislature for release from marriage obligations does not deserve » divorce, for if the grounds were stf- ficient they would not be seeking ir- regular channels for release. TO HELP JAPAN. ‘There appears to be no question that Japan has carried it< big debt as long as it can. and has finally decided to fund it. The taxation under the pres- ent system of finance is so great that means have got to be taken to relieve the people, and it appears likely that this country will take the loan. In view of the persistent war-talk such a business transaction would show that Japan has the confidence of American financlers, and that the tendency is for cloger and pleasanter business rela- tions with “the Island empire” rather than a rupture of the amicable rela- tions between the two countries. There has never been any reason in the pretence that Japan was playing false and preparing to strike this coun- try @ heavy blow on its Pacific side. There is very reason why we should be the best of neighbors and good friends: and increase our trade and generally pleasant relartons with this thrifty nation of little brown men who frem their genius and valor are en- titled to our respect. It is to be hoped that this report is true; eand that this country will take the whole loan There is more to be zained by both countries in business than in war. DOES FLY-SWATTING KNOCK AN INDUSTRY? The chief of the bureau of entomol- ogy at Washington, Dr. L. O. Howard, is credited with calling attention to e fact that the extermination of the flies not oniy means less disease and less patronage for the doctors, but the knocking out of the screen industry, which represents fitty millions, I cause screens will no ed. The Bulletin finds that figures are not carefully longer be need- the doctor's thought out, for when he places $30,000,000 as the invested capital, $50,000 as the annual national expens for screens is mnot enough, for it would take $80,000 on a million to make this industry pay div- idends; and it is highly probable that the American people spend more than fifty thousand every year for fly paper. The agitation concerning the disease distributing ability of flies been the greatest reen-advertising cam- paign the country has ever known, and we are not impressed that the screen makers are counting upon the destruc- tion of their business, but rather counting upon a well sustained trade because of the swatting-of-the-fly mpaign for years to come. These campaigns of extermination of insects are profitable to the agitators. | They open public treasuries. Massa- chusetts and the government have spent three millions for the extermi- nation of the gypsy moth and it is still far from being made an end of. New Jersey has spent a third of a million in trying to exterminate the mosquito, and it may end millions without silencing the voice of the mosquito on the Jersey marshes. And as to the house-fly, a century hence the screen factories will be running and the dili-| gent housewife will be swatting the fly to keep it out of the house and off from the dining room table. It i§ not probable there will ever be a time in this world when there will not be a fly in the ointment. The millionth patent isstied by the patent office is for an improved auto- mobile tire which will do better serv- ice than rubber. The government has issued over four patents daily for vears. It ig evident that the Standard Oil had a very large hand when we come 1o see what it has been holding in it, LOYAL TO PRECEDENT. ‘The Connecticut senate has shown itself to be loyal to precedent, whether the precedent embalmed a principle or not. That was shown first when it voted $3,300 of the pecple’s money away (o eleven newspapermen who had no more claim upon it than the other newspaper representatives on the spot; and again jt was shown this week when the lieutenant governor of this state thought it becoming in him to overcome the veto of the governor in the case of the Taylor souvenir bill, with his personal vote to break a tie, which action he defended as follows: “I voted for the measure because I thought it was worth while. This man Taylor had prepared his plans for this work. I don’t know whether the work has been carried out or not. But Tay- lor has a semi-official authorization to do it. T think something of this form ought to be carried out. T den't pre- sume to say that this is the right way. Taylor has spent a lot of money in his labors.” This does not seem t5 be a very im- pressive defence of an act which was as unnecessary as it was unbecoming in the lieutenant governor. Multiplying such precedents does not in the end make good law. | THE, REAL JESSE POMEROY, It is usually those who do not under- stand the case of this child murderer who get in sympathy with him and try by agitation to get him free, or, if that is not possible, to procure for him Jarger liberties in prison. Those who have him in charge and watch his ¢ase take a different view of him. The following reference to him from the Boston Transcript indicates how those having him in charge interpret his conduct: 5 “It may mnot be generally known, says The Transcript, “that Jesse Pom- eroy is 4 law student in the sense of being. an indefatigable reader of law books. An idea has taken possession of his mind that he was not legally ‘evidence. Some time ago it was no- ticed that he had developed a taste for a kind of Teading that most lay- men shun, and an inquiry developed the origin of his research into ‘cases.’ As his task has kept him quiet he w not interfered with, His latest ap- parent attempt to prepare for an es- cape would suggest that his mind has reverted to his old designs, and that he has dropped the delusion that he is illegally detained, He is the right man in the right place in his solitary cell, for even to the most hardened convicts at Charlestown he is so odi- ous, that there is no saying what might happen to him, if he was ex- posed to the horror with which he in- spires them. EDITORIAL NOTES. It is singular that nineteen in every twenty war scares do not frighten any one. A new building to be erected In New York calls for seventy-seven thousand barrels of Portland cemént. Recent statistics show that there were 105,000 bold soldiers in the Civil war betweep 14 and 16 years of age. Edison is of the opinion that no one knows more than one-seven-billionth of one per cent, about electricity. The Canadian northwest gives notice that it will need fifty thousand men to help harvest the crops this season. A church weather-vane which de- ceives strangers every day better be in Hades than in such a respectable place. Happy thought for today: When it comes to talking up a husband nobody on earth can do it just like an aspiring widow. Just think of the Grangers of old Connecticut sulking in their tents. That does not measure up to Connect cut manhood. Dr. Wiley is now being commended a radical fashion setter in his movement to take the “high collar” off American beer.

There is some- thing artificial about it which robs it of its effectiveness. The only smiles we can think of that will not come off are carved in stone or plastic matérial, The smile that lines up true is the one that comes off on occasion like a chameleon’s color. The thing which pleases causes a smile and the thing which displeases calls it off. To al- ways smile is to become like unto a graven image—to have a fixed, mean- ingless expression. The smile inter- preted means: “I enjoy it"—“I am in harmony with ycur expression and feeling.” It is a credit to a person to have a smile that comes off in 2 hurry when the time to smile has passed. There are a thousand and one things in life that it would be folly to smile over; and if we did smile at them we should be discrédited and deserve to be. A smile means something more than good nature, since it signalizes or is supposed to, vur feelings in relation to that about which we smile. The smile that does not come off is not to e envied for it queers one's character; and is as undesirable as an unreliable friend. The smile that will come off is the only smile worth ha\’)ng Every person who has been impressed that sieeping on the piazza is healthy and sensible has not found that experi- ence confirmed nis first impressions upon the subject. In a quiet, open neighborhood ~ and propérly screened the piazza is inviting and has many possibilities; but in & close neighbor- hood where the cats yowl most of the night, the milkman tumbles up stairs before five o'clock in the morning, and the small boys of the neighborhood get out before six and yell and throw everything from rotten fruit to stone: the piazza is altogether another prop osition. Under such circumstances the health-seeker cannot tell how many times he will be awakened, or whether it 11 be by cats, the milkman, the voice of the small boy, or a wildly thrown melon rind. The average piazza is not a pleasant sleeping place for in- valids unless it is thoroughly screened in and conscientiou respected by neighbors and others. In fact, a tent is much better: but exen that has its faults, unless s a sleeping room.tent which keeps the sleepers head in the open air while it serves to check the draft. Fads are not what they seem to be alw: | keep a pan of water out for the birds which holds a gallon or two, and I have enjoyed their pleasure in using it all through the dry hot spell; the watel is deep on one side and shailow on the other, and I have watched it, 100, to see if they have anything that appears like a code of honor, and have concluded that they have. Various birds come 1o the drinking pan which sits on a shelf upon a post six feet from the ground, and they sit on the edge and sip the water and like to loiter there: but not one of them has ever thought of taking a bath in it. In cherry time I found cherry stones in it, where they had dropped them while eating on the rim: and I see other evidences of lunch remnants ac- cidently dropped into the water when the pan is taken down and cleaned; but mo bird ventures in any way to pollute it any more than human be- ings would pollute a spring. 1 have thought 1 have seen robins guarding it; and one young robin liked to loiter on the sheif beside the pan where I thought he caught a few insects. It is something the birds thoroughiy enjo: every season; and I must confess I also share in the pleasure they find in it. The wild flowers on cultivated ground become the victim of the hoe as well as the wind-sown or dropped squatters; but as I have a kindly feeling for some of them they are permitted to linger in peace. I was surprised the other day to discover a thrifty orchid hugging the south side of the north fence in full bloom of a pretty blush color, striped on the white lip a deeper red; and it seemed to me to be as worthy of r violets, ghe Crane’ 1d things which find and the bees appear to much as the goldfinches and other little favor with me enjoy them as do the seed-pods of the bachellor’s but- tons. And the squatters are the holly- poppies, Sunflowers, Ccoreopsis and other stragglers which lend a bit of color and beauty to the garden when it would otherwise be and which we spare when we are hoeing because we know that they occupy but little room and are gone when the cultivated flowers in special favor come ta their full glory and atiract all the attention; and these squatters 2re not incapable of teaching a close observer a few les- sons every season. | always feel interested in the Milky Way on August nights when it crosses the sky from the northeast to the southwest and appears to be nearer than at any other season.

The man who has not seen the un- derside of life has never fought the whole fight. We should advise no one to become a thousand or two worse off than nothing just for the sake of hav- ing the experience: but there have been thousands who got below the credit line who never again got above it: and other thousands who did so by taking advantage of the court of bank- ruptey, or the law’s limitations. These last are not men who made a square issue upon the plane of a hundred cents upon a dollar. There are many men who have made a square fight, re- crossed the credit line and gone on to comfort and Easy street, and not a At this time of year w2 hear much said and see much in print about flies, but nothing to their credit, or in their praise. They seem the only thing in existence of which no good thing can be recorded. We screen our houses against their entrance, and if one gains admittance, how he is hunted and put to death. Even spiders are sometimes admired for their beautiful markings, and ars praised because they catch flies, and snakes are trained and petted by some, who profess to enjoy ths acquaintance and maintain that they are free from all malicious intent. An old uncle of mine would drive out of his course to.avoid hitting a snaks stretched across the road, say- ing, when questioned: “That snake never hurt me, and he wants to_live as much as you do.” But dear Uncie George would kill every fly that he encountered, with positive anjoyment. We are told that they bring disease, that they are uncleanly, that number: less microbes are in their possession, 1o be scattersd about and work disas- ter to our race. At all events, old andq young, men, women and children, see: banded together, far and wide, en- gaged in the destruction of flies Followers of Buddha, we are told, never destrcy any living thing, so in the countries given up to that form of worship the flies should find a para- dise of safety. Recently iz The Bulletin a letter from The Quail Trap told the story of a woman who never killad flies or spiders, and although she may never have heard of the oriental god, still she followed his behest like a faithful believer. Most of us have, however, a natural antipathy to spiders and reptiles. I do not think we are repelled in the same way by flies, but we wage war against them with even greater persistenc Rewards are offered now for the gres est number slaughtered, and still their numeers hold good, though I do think we are having fewer this season than and_cleanliness, they stir our temper by interfering with our comfort 1in many other ways. On a warm day we think to find rest in an afternoon nap: we darken the room and are sure there is an hour's refreshment in store for us. “How fine.” we think, as we give ourselves up to repose. Sleep is almost within our grasp, when something upon our hand. Can it be a fi now he brushes across our face, just near enough for us to hear the rustie of his wings. And we were 5o sure not one was in ths room! Where could he have come from? Our Sunday morn- ing’s slumber is interfered with in the same way. A drive loses some of its pleasure when we see how the horses | arz annoyed by the flies. and even the E eir small tor- The flies are so insignificant in siz and looks compared with those whom they attack that the audacity of their skirmishes almost wins our admira- tion. TIs there anyvthing else, unless it be a mosquito, which so boldly #n- proaches an enamy so superior in size and apparent power? Sometimes it appears as if they wanted to meet on friendly terms. How unkind must seem the rebuffs they enconnw and how ungrataful they must feel us to be to repel all their overtures_for cioser acquaintance! As for their cleanliness, ai watch_a fly a: his toilet? rubs his body, vigorously enough to annihilate all lodging microbes, one would think. Rub, rub, rub! a dry rub, to be sure, for they do not seem to l'ke water baths. Scrub and scrape and scour till every atom of surface has been explored. Then the wings are polished. Thin as gauze, but tough theix fibr= must be to endure the ener- getic strokes applied to them. When these are finisned, Mr. Fly attends t. his_head. His shampoo is very brisk and thorough. It seems at any mo- ment that he will jerk his head off in his endeavors to regulate matters to his satisfaction. Tne head is lifted and turned upside down, that he may reach the bacx of his neck and make sure an dust is left there. When positive no more can be done there, he settles his head in place securely, and then at- tacks his feet. How he rubs th-- to- gether, giving caraful attention to his soles and toes, first his hind feet, then the fore feet. Much strength is ap- parently put into every brush, and many, many times are they pushed ®ack and forth befors the trcatment is considered complete. When all is done he gives himself a fire shake, to make sure he is not dismembered in any way. I should think he would be a lit- tla" doubtful whether he were still in the body with all parts complete as be- fore. Having satisfied himse!f that all is well, he flies away, probably feeling that he is the dandiest of all flies and that he must be the admiration of all flydom. And still we say ha brings uncleanliness to our food and discom- fort to ourselves. In his “Star Papers” years ago Hen- ry Ward Beecher discoursed on the merits and demerits of flies. He claim- ed that those that outlived the frosts of autumn deserved their freedom, and they survived till midwinter they, ere to be treated as pets and coaxed with sugar to remain as favorad guests. But times and manners change, and were the famous divine living now he would doubtless advocate the general massacre of flies. Their pranks furnish us manv a laugh, for we are sufficiently akin to them to chuckle over the annoyance of another. Who has mot been amused at the frantic attempts of the bald- headed man to keep his tormentors away? All of us have heen made to smile at the misplaced energy with which the victim strikes himself a blow, intended for a fly, force enough having been put into action to have killed an army of the small creature: I once heard a small Bostonese maiden of eight years express herself as follows at a summer resort: “These flies are so exceedingly perti- nacious!” ‘We all agreed with her, though most of us used shorter words. We always speak of a fly as mascu- line. I've been told the feminine form of the Latin words is used in speaking of them sclentifically. I maintain it is unfair td assume that they all be- long to ths weaker sex. If they do, let no one’s sense of gallantry forbld him to “Swat the fiy.” AN IDLER. few to a competence. The successful ones had no room for despair and lent themselves to no weak forebodings. They had faith in _themselves and never let the star off hope set. They come to know the might of honesty and honor, which is the might of righteous- ness. This is an up-hill fight, and the square-fighter is the only one that has satisfaction in it. When it is finished it is a real victory—a victory which seems “like the smile of God.” If it was generally anderblodd by persons advancing in age if they did not use their minds they would lose them, more attention would be given to mental exerfise which is as im- portant as phvsical exercise. The price of all our blessings is work. Chalmer's declared “A Christian’s spirituality de- more upon his work than his i and Ruskin tells us: “The law of nature is, that a certain quantity of work is necessary to pro- duce a certain quantity of good of any kind whatever. If you want knowledge vou must toil for it; if food, You must toil for it; and, if pleasure, You must toil for it. Nothing can loaf and pros- per in Nature:” and it is a fact that Nature does not abhor a vacuum any more than it does idleness. This word work is wrought all over the heavens and the earth, because “man is kept in life by work, and dies either because he will not or cannot work.” Nature works continuously for us, and we must work for nature and ourselves or reap the consequences of violated nat- ural law, SUNDAY MORNING TALK THE MAN WHO IS MAKING GOOD. We congratulate you, sir, whoever and wherever you are, on_ your suc- cess. It is a fine thing to have found one’s work and to be hard at it. In a world where there are a good many round pegs in square holes you and your employment present a refreshing illustration of the fitness of things. Your job is an exacting one but you jare measuring up to it. It is so much more interesting to :eed than to fail! The only biogra- we really care to read are those of men and women who, somehow in spite of all obstacles, finaily “get there.” We are not thrilled by the stories of those who have succumbed to competition or given way to dis- couragement and quit the race. Your own career, in its humble way and as far as it has gome, is a pleasant sub- ject of conversation among your friends and a worthy ideal to hold be- fore young men. Certain worldly rewards will un- doubtedly come t¢ you. You may rea- sonably look for a compeience and for the power to give vour loved ones a fair share of the leisure and pleasure of life. You are in a fair way to keep the wolf from the door and even to drive him forever back into the clearing. And that is an attainfnent any right-minded man may well covet. Another advantage of such success as you are making is the added con- fidence it gives a man. One holds his head a little higher when he realizes that there is a sphere in the world's activity that he can acceptably fill He gains a certain sense of security {and personal worth in the knowledge that some one particular grain he can tug to the common mill. Did you ever know a skilled and _efficient workman in any line who failed to possess a sort of dignified self-reli- ance? He knows he can furnish some- thing that the world needs. But the man who is suceeeding must vet be on his guard. As the good book says, “Let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall”” It is easy to rest in an early or in a partial success. You may imagine you have reached tne summit when you have scarcely climbed the foothills. There are vet untried ranges of pos- sibility in vour profession. If one is not growing more efficient all the time it is probable that he is growing less so, Hg had the true spirit of the artist fwho, on being asked what he considered his best picture, replied, “my next one.” The French have a proverb to the effect that the good is the enemy of piration and attainment is nothing other than failure. Above all remember that the mate- rial rewards of life are not the only ones. If one gains the whole world but loses his own soul in the gaining he has made a sorry bargain. There was once a successful man whose barns were bursting with grain and whose pockets bulged with yellow gold but across whose portrait the Master wrote, “Thou first.” Keep the heart warm, t conscience sensitive and true, the mind open to all the light that streams from God's heaven. ILook upon the unny side; give your fears to the winds: lend a hand. The man who in this spirit is doing his bit of work with all the energy and skill at his command, whatever material rewards may come to him, is “making good.” THE PARSON.
