Tongue Reading Sow.
Various persons have claimed to be
able to read character from the lines in
the palm of tlie hand, from the irregu
larities in the surface of the skull, from
the eyes, from the ears and even from
the nose; and now a young woman in
Paris asserts that she can read it from
the tongue. The guiding signs are as
follows: If the tongue is long, it is an
indication of frankness; if it is short, of
dissimulation; if it is broad, ofexpan
siveness; if narrow, of concentration.
When the tongue is both long and large
it implies that the possessor is a great
gossip, frank to disagreeableness and
thoughtless. If the tongue be long and
narrow, its owner is only half frank,
thinking as much as is uttered, but-not
always uttering what is thought. If the
tongue be short and broad, there is
promise of plenty of gossip—and false
hoods; it talks a great deal, but says
little of what is really thought. If short
and narrow, it indicates deep cunning
and lying, impenetrability and great
prudence. This tongue belongs to
those persons always ready to make
mistakes, but eager to inspire confi
dence. I'erhaps by close study of the
new science, physicians will become
able to tell, when they examine a pa
tient's tongue, not only his physical
condition, but also whether he is likely
to pay their fee.
A long coal train was creeping slow
ly up a steep grade on the Heading
road near Philadelphia when the en
gine began to perform in a very pecul
iar manner. "What's the matter? Look
out of the window and see what's
wrong?" said the engineer. "Wheel's
going 15 miles an hour," replied the fire
man, "but there's the same telephone
post we passed five minutes ago!" The
engineer shut off steam, climbed, down
from the cab, and, with the assistance
of the fireman and conductor, found
that the track had been smeared with
lard, soap and axle grease. To haul the
train over such rails was impossible, so
flagmen were sewt front and rear, the
engine was detached from the train
and it crept slowly ahead to Glenside,
where the conductor telegraphed for
help from Philadelphia. As soon, as
the engine disappeared there swarmed
out of the adjoining woods a score of
men with wagons, wheelbarrows and
sacks, and proceeded to steal a car
load of coal. The few trainmen were
*powerless, and before the engine re
turned they had not left in the car as
much as would fill a cook stove.
A well-known Philadelphia profes
sional man, who is noted among his
friends for his absent-mindedness,
thought he had reached the height of
absurdity when he was forced to ask
his wife his first name a short time ago
in order to answer properly a question
asked by the assessor of his district.
His memory, however, played him an
even, worse trick the other day, and
the joke was so good that he told it on
himself.. He was writing a letter in
the post office corridor one evening,
when a seedy-looking person came up
with a hard luck story. The writer
paused long enough to tell the beggar
that he had nothing for him and to
go away. The fellow persisted, and
again poured forth his woeful story.
AJ watchman finally chased the beggar
away, and the absent-minded writer
Marled to read what he had written.
Great was his surprise when he found
that he had transcribed word for word
part of the hard luck tale that had been
poured into his unwilling ears.
Critics of missions, who delight in
saying that "it takes a dollar to carry
a cent" to the beneficiaries of these or
ganizations, are conclusively refuted, by
facts given in connection with the mis
sions of the Methodist Episcopal
church. During the church year 1897-8
this body expended in the foreign and
domestic mission fields about $1,200,000.
The "salaries of missionary bisliops,
secretaries, etc.," together with the
"ofiice. and incidental expenses," took
just 6%. cents out of each dollar given
to be expended in mission work. The
"children of the world" lfijiy be wiser
in their generation than the "children
of light;" at least the critics think so;
but the fact remains that a business
corporation which could keep its "cost
of administration" within seven per
cent, of its total expenditure would feel
-that it exhibited very commendable
("worldly" skill.
THE WAGE IMPROVEMENT.
Better Times lluve Ilecn Comln*
Ever Since the ltepubllean
\ ietory of ISJMJ.
The numerous announcements of ad
vances in wages, particularly for the
many thousands employed in the iron
and cotton industrits. is but the natu
ral movement toward better times for
wage-earners which set in soon after
the election in November, IS9<5. At that
time a million would-be workers were
out of employment, and those who had
employment were not fully occupied.
The improvement from the date of the
recovery in December, 189G, was slow
but progressive. Industries began to
work full hours and then they began
to employ more men its prospects im
proved. Two years this improvement
went on silently, until the mass of men
who were idle in lsyt; were taken off of
the streets into the workshops and the
factories which had been working ten
hours on half the days were operating
on full time and some of them day and
night.
All this time there was no apparent
improvement in wages. Agitators,
calamity ites and demagogues allied to
disaster declared that there could be
no better times until there should be
an advance in wages. The regular em
ployment which succeeded three or
four days a week and the demand for
labor which had absorbed the million
of idle men. thus adding to the ag
gregate weekly amount paid to wage
workers 1.1 or 20' per cent., were as
much an advance of wages as if a few
cents a day had been added, it is the
full employment, of labor at a fair
price which measures the general pros
perity of the country, because such em
ployment gives to workers the largest
aggregate of wages.
As the year opened the improvement
in demand and prices made it possible
to take the next step in two or three of
the larger industries, which was the
advance of wages. This followed natu
rally after the absorption of the un
employed. The upward movement had
begun. In the past two weeks the
wages of more men were advanced ten
per cent, than during any similar time
in our industrial period. And the re
j markable fact about this advance is
that it has been made without a strike,
without a demand, but by the free act
of employers. In this connection the
returns of wages by the recent bulletin
of the Massachusetts bureau of labor
shows some interesting facts. The av
erage of daily wages paid in 16 employ
ments in 12 cities of the United States
was as follows: INTO, $2.201850,
$2.-31 Vs; in 1800, $2.48; in 1803. ; in
1806. $2.40; IS'JT. $2.40; 189S, $2.38%
Put.for the fall in the wages of brick
layers the wages of IS9S would have
show n a gain over the preceding year.
By Pradstreefs index numbers it ap
pears that in October, 1890, given quan
tities of 107 staples cost 105.990. that
the same quantities could be pur
chased during the entire year 1896 for
f>5.777, and that prices began to rise in
1897. and during 1898 the cost thereof
averaged 7.".527. This means that be
tween 1890 and 1896 wages fell only 3.22
per cent-., while prices fell 38 per cent.,
and between 1890 and 1898 prices fell
2-0.8 per cent.
Ttiis means that if all wage-earners
could have had full employment- be
tween 1890'and 1896 at ten or fifteen per
cent, lower wages, the fall in prices
was so much greater that they would
have been quite as well off if not better
off. It was not. the decline in wages
of the employed which caused the dis
tress during the period which followed
the inauguration of Mr. Cleveland in
1893. but the entire loss of pay by a
considerable percent, of those who live
bv wages and the partial loss by half
or two-thirds employment by others.

ITTCoI. William Jennings Bryan has
been seen a great deal in Washington
lately. He has been a frequent visitor
at the capitol, and in his calls shows
a marked preference for the senate.
He has more personal friends in that
body than he has in the house. Indeed,
his principal backing is in the senate.
Up to within a few months Col. Bryan's
appearance at the capitol was the sig
nal for crowds to gather around him
for many an impromptu reception. To
day he fails to arouse more than a
languid interest, and he may haunt the
marble room or parade the rotunda all
day without being interfered with by
people getting in his way. Judging
from surface appearances, the colonel
is overtrained, and his sponsors and
managers would be much delighted if
he would seek much needed seclusion
from public observation for awhile.
His insatiate greed for notoriety pre
cludes that, however. Washington

ITTThe United States is in better
shape than any other nation for cross
ing the Pacific. Its geographical po
sition and rights of defense entitle it
to this advantage. West of San Fran
cisco, the first stopping place is Hono
lulu, a distance of 2.100 miles. Prom
Honolulu to (iuam is 3.337 miles, and
from Guam to Manila, by the course
usually traveled around the north end
of Luzon island, 1.750 miles. .Most of
the larger ships of the navy can make
the runs without recoaling. Within a
few years the American cable will be
in operation along this route, and it is
probable that we shall acquire some
coaling stations on the coast of Asia.
Ins chort time it w ill be seen that our
expansion in the Pacific is not imperial
istic, but legitimately commercial. —

(TTTreisury officials say that within

elected president in 1896 the situation
would now be very different, —Indian-

PROSPERITY AND BRYAN.
(■O4MI TIIIHH Have a l>e|>rea«ln|{ Kf
fect on the Free Silver
llooNter.
Mr. Bryan has been down in Hous
ton, Tex., telling the people that "pros
perity lias not come." Just what mean
ing Mr. Bryan attaches to the word
"prosperity" we do not. know. If it
conveys to his mind nothing more than
the present or prospective realization
of his personal political ambition, it
must be admitted that he proclaimed
the truth to his hearers in the south.
But if the word signifies good times in
industrial and business circles. Mr. Bry
an is either helplessly or willfully blind
to the conditions that exist Hi! around
him.
For some of the undeniable facts of
the situation are these: Most of the
shops and factories of the country are
working at their full capacity. Thedis
tributivc movement of goods through
out the United States is larger than
ever before. The masses of the people
are selling w hat they produce and buy
ing w hat they •want in quantities which
in the aggregate are immense beyond
all previous records. Th« export trade
of the United States is of a magnitude
never before attained. Our domestic
needs are supplied from domestic
sources to an extent never before
known. These large sales abroad and
this large consumption of home prod
ucts bring and keep money in our own
channels of trade and fields of labor.
Money, in fact, is abundant and avail
able for all legitimate and profit-yield
ing enterprises. A million more men
are at work now than were employed
in IK9G, and the wages in the majority
of their industries are ten to twenty
per cent, higher than they were then.
These are facts recognized and pro
claimed by all newspapers of all par
ties, and easily verified by anyone who
goes around with his eyes open. And
the great change from hard times to
good time- has come about without the
aid of those policies which Mr. Bryan
advocated in 1890 and which he de
clared W( re necessary to the restora
tion of prosperity.
The last-mentioned tact is probably
the one which keeps Mr. Bryan in the
dumps, lie has seen his theories shat
tered and his prophecies brought to
naught. He is unhappy because pros
perity has come in company with poli
cies exactly opposite to those on which
he staked his pn sidential hopes. Con
sequently he denies that there is any
prosperity. Possibly he is honest in
the matter. He may be organically in
capable of perceiving that any 1 hing ea n
flourish as long as the country refusrs
to ride his own political hobby. He may
actually believe that adversity must
reign as long as Bryanism is under a
cloud; that the personal prosperity of
the political Bryan cannot be separated
or differentiated from the general pros
perity of his countrymen; just as he
once professed to believe that the prices
of silver and wheat must go up and
down together.
To be subject to these delusions is a
great misfortune, and perhaps Mr. Bry
an is to be pitied rather than blamed.
However this may be, the people at
large do not share in his delusion. They
know prosperity when the see it and
experience it. They can recognize the
real thing as distinguished from the
bogus article which Mr. Bryan evident
ly has in mind. The latter may deny
the existence- of prosperity to his
heart > «&«".tent, but by so doing he only

frieLds and admirers builded better

Washington, March 29. Senors Jose
H. Villalon and A. llevia, who were ap
[xi in ted by the Cuban assembly to [ire
sent to the Washing-ton authorities the
resolution of that body, have arrived in
this city. Their mission, in addition
to the presentation of the resolutions,
is 'to explain in detail the situation
with reference to the Insurgent, army.
While the assembly did not reject the
$3,000,000 which (ien. Gomez arranged
with Kobert I*. Porter to receive and
pay off the Cuban troops, they believe
It to be entirely inadequate to meet the
situation. They desire at least $lO,-
000,000 and as much more as can be ob
tained.
They argue that if the Cuban army
is disbanded the distribution of but
$3,000,000, which would give to each en
listed man about s<iS, the money
so obtained would be barely sufficient
for them to procure clothes and return
to their homes, leaving them no mar
gin upon which to enter upon the
peaceful pursuits of life. Without
the means of subsistence, Senor Vil
lalon says, disorders would almost in
evitably follow and perhaps brigand
age. Tile object both of the L'nited
Stales and of the assembly, says Mr.
Villalon, is to secure tranquility in
Cuba preparatory to the setting up by
the Cuban people of an independent
government, and he says that it is
therefore as much to the interests of
the l'nited States authorities as to
those who immediately represent the
Cuban patriots to see that the dis
banded soldiers are given an oppor
tunity to return to civil pursuits.
Senor Villalon and his colleague will
probably seek an audience with the
president, and if this is denied them
they will see the secretary of war. If
the president receives these gentlemen
it will be as visiting citizens, not in
their representative capacity. No
such recognition will be accorded them.
