A most shocking case of discrimination

anti-discriminacienists, the rate of postage
should be raised oo letters going to the far

The Family In Japan.
gn a lecture delivered in New York a few
e:iings ago, by a citizea wbo bas been in
Japwn many years, this waa said of the fam
ily ia that country : ''The family in Japin,
said tte Doctor, is, in practice as well as in
theory, the corner-stone of the nation. The
father asd mother are regarded with rever
ence, snd the family sits ia loving conclave
on all concerns of its members. Politeness
and sell-reetraint are ingrained ia the chil
dren, and as uncivil word ia rarely heard.
Marriage as a .union of families rather than
of individuals. The parties to it are ebosen
ia family council. The relatives of the hus
band and wiie jealously guard tbe domestic
honor of each. The young girls receive no
visits except from members of their oil
families, and are trained inll the minute
details of household management. After
maniagc they are allowed almost as much
inddcDce as tha husbands ia concerns of the
family, and their opiaious ar of ten consult
ed. Divorce is not so common in Japan as
in America, and the reports ofgrojs immor
ality are unfounded. A greater degree of
refinement and cultivation prevails among
tbe peop'e tbaa is generally ubdustood." J
Unite! Brethren Bowk. Inter
est.
The latest denomination to take hold ol
the book interests in an extensive way in
tho capital city at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania,
where several large church houses are al
ready established, is the church ot the Uni
ted Brethren in Christ. Ou Ust Saturday
the Eastern C. B. Book House of that city,
purchased one of the best located and most
valuable properties on Market street. The
property is located almost opposiie mo
point of entrance to the new depot, of the
Penna. R. B, Company. It has a frontage
of 25 feet, and a depth of 210 feet, which
will be devoted to the book and printing
business. It cost the House VM.JoO, ana
is said to be worth $20,000. There bss been
great progress made by this denominstioa
in its educational and book interests during
tbe last quarter of a century. It has many
active workers in its ranks, and has reach
ed a membership of almost a quarter of a
million.
"It is feared at Nanticoke that tbe work
of searching for the buried miners will have
to be abandoned. The drill had penetrated
one hundred and fifty feet of quicksand and
earth and tb work of boring through the
rock which was reached at thia depth was
going on all right when the lower tubing
gave way and let in large quantitiea of quick
sand. This will necessitate the drawing out
of all the tubioc in the order to get at the
broken joints and will require some time,
during which the quicksaud will close the
hole so effectually as to require re drilling.'
A Body For The Doctors.
Body snatching bss grown to re one of
the great evils of the day and in some local
ities tbe dread of body snatching, or steal
ing, is so great that tbe greatest pains are
taken to secure the graves of deceased peo
ple from the despoiler of the tomb. Some
rich people place a guard at night at the
crave of deceased friends a number of
months after entombment. However there
are exceptions to this general dread of fall
ing into the hands of doctors, after death
as may be illustrated in the case of an un
known man wbo bung himself last Thursday
morn ing to an awning post in Greensburg,
Pa- The name on bis shirt wss J. Little.
He was about sixty-five years of age, and
weighed two hundred pounds. He bad

buttonholing the sober members with :
'Now, honorable sirs, you are here to rep
resent your party, not to promote public
peace, virtue, and economy. I'm the bal
ance of power ; license me, so as to make
me respectable and recognized aa a state in
stitution, or I'll withdraw my voies from
your party." So liceuse becomes law.
It sits in the pastor's study and the sanc
tum of the pioos editor (many of them),
like the toad at tbe ear ot Eve,
and whispers: "Please follow, don't lead
Principle's all right in its place, but some
times it's too much of a luxury for poor men.
People are divided 'bout me; so preach and
tettilce for bieh license as a halt loaf!
That will suit me, and keep you sweet with
most folks. Your tipplers won't get mad
at it, nor your pews and subscription list
run dry. Fine scheme, compromise is the
key to salvation ;" and tbe thrones of the
church sing the praises of license to send
men to hell.
It slaps the secular editor on tbe shoul
der and bribes him with ghastly truth : "If
I don't get a brisk trade, your sheet'll be out
of crime and other sensations. So you can
take a personal pride in puffing me as a civ
ilizer and active friend of tho press ;" and
the editor says, "1 es, give us news if you
h sve to murder somebody, or starve a whole
famit .
This remorseless It rides with the haber
dasher of physic to tell biin : "You know
that liquor's good to drive out both beat
aud cold. Tbat is, if a fellow is hot all ov
er, let my fire-water cool bis stomach 'to a
charcoal, and be won't mind the heat in
other spots ; or, if he's cold, let It warm
him so Inside tbat be won't know when he's
frozen outside. And a keg o' beer in the
house with a nursing babe is very health
ful adds muscle to me and sometimes
makes the mother an angel. And yon, men
of science and tbe Lord, only know what
the next generation would be, if this one
didu't drink hearty." So incipient delir
ium tremens is prescribed for tbe sick.
It whistles to tbe farmer and says:
"John, I'm your market for corn ; I'm the
great wizard of tbe grain field turning mil
lions of your fat acres into dead men and
deseliled homes, all tor you ; though the
faaatics tell y -u that, if I didu't kill off an
army of men every year and keep a dozen
armies drunk, getting ready, to die they
would work snd buy your corn for bread.
John, vote to keep my distilleries mashing !
You may be a church member and have a
boy wbo knows a saloon ; but bosh ! muzzle
conscience, and teach your young lellow
firmness by leading bim into bxuptation '.'
And yet you may find as many astwoChr -tiau
farmers steadily votii.g with parties
wbo;e record is hieroglyphed by tuo tracks
of drunkards and on the tavoru-posls ol
damnation.
Again this slmost omnipotent It makes
mayors and alderm en its astraps, bribes po
licemen into over i ndulgenee hi broadcloth
vagabonds, holds a mortgage upon half the
courts ot justice, and drives innocent youth
in docks from tbe princely paths of clean
ness and competence. And It swaggers
through a coward society, the bully of tbe
club room, tbe dinning room, the dining
ball and the dress piradu, .patronized by
weak men and tolerated by weaker wo
men. Of course, thia little indictment of Old
Traffic, tlie criminal on whoa- career vol
umes cloa? ithout covering hall, is nothing
new.; but though il be old d-j not let it
turn rusty. Keep it bright, thatthe indif
ferent maymeasuro tbe only great shame
ahicb exceeds their indifference.
