It would be difficult to find any earnest man of action who has not a 1 ( bby. lie ought to have one, for nothing short of a hobby will devel op one's energy and enthusiasm. Ihe disparagement with which the world speaks of a man who rides his hobby applies only to those who are ") inconsiderate as to have no re gard for the hobbies of other people. ith hobbies as with almost all things else there may be use or a buse. The proper use of a hobby is to use it as an inspiration for one's own zealous work: the abuse of it con- sists in persistentlv regarding it as j the only hobby worthy of considera tion, and of therefore forcing it up on other people at all times and in all places. The beneficial hobbies of men as distinguished from those of doubtful utility are those which result in the organization of chari ties and educational institutions. One man through some chance as sociations, perhaps, becomes inter ested in the lame; he assists in found ing a hospital for their treatment, and as his interest in the subject in creases the lame absorb ail his time and engage all his thoughts. They become his hobby. As he thinks of nothing else they are the sole sub ject of his conversation. His friend, perhaps, has drifted into the schools, has sought to better them and be comes absorbed in educational work, lie also rides his hobby and tp good purpose. These men and all oth ers like them do a great deal of good in the world. They are the mainstays of charitable and educa tional institutions; they gather from an indiilerent. if not unwilling pi , lie, without hobbies, the means re quired for the maintenance of schools, churches, hospitu's, homes and all the great array cf institutions that care for and help humanity without asking any reward on earth. This would be a bleak world if men did not ride hobbies: if they did not have their zeal kindled to do good in some one direction instead of dissipating their energy in a thousand. Even the rider of a hobby who be comes a bore to his friends is entitl ed to some consideration as being superior to those without a thought of anything tut self. Yet there is no reason why the rider of a hobby should become a social nuisance. He should ride with discretion, observe the laws of the road and recognize tleit ih.-M-o are other hobbv ridders who are sometimes entitled to the 1 right of way. It is quite natural j that a man whose thoughts are giv- j en to only one subject should bend everything to his one idea; but he can guard against carrying this ten dency to an extreme by becoming a ,r,wi,1 listener. In society he will i meet other men with hobbies, and he ! should accustom himself to listening i to them, taking his turn at times, ! but not insisting upon a monopoly of the discussion. In this way. though I he may have a hobby, he will not be ! recognized as an objectionable rider a,m V V. .1' r ;f nU more eiiectneiy uuui u- .-ii.'i. make it offensive by becoming a bore. There are some men who would willing! v forego their hobbies when they meet others m company, but are" not permitted to do so. Some one, out of politeness, perhaps, in vites them to mount by turning the subiect of conversation in their di rection; but the discreet man, though a hobby rider, will reject such ad vances "and reserve himself for im- ..t,nt en'orts.

Now that the elections are all over, let us wash our hands and turn over a new leaf. It is a curious paradox that as a general rule a man can't be elected until he first falls from grace, Politics makes a strange mixture of Calvinism and Ariniuianism. Hut I reckon we will all survive our disap pointment and, as Dr. Miller used to say, learn to spell the word acquiesce, lie always pronounced it with the first e long like it was acquieece." This seems to be the young men's era and I reckon they can run the j machine, but I must saT that it has been a long time since I have had my choice in anything outside of home. I am doing reasonably well under ray own vine and fig tree, where I am elected all the time. The fact is, I never fall from grace inside my own premises, though sometimes things are not calm and serene even there. I worked hard yesterday cleaning' up the flower garden and got in quite a sweat of perspiration. The j leaves from our big trees had blown i all over the beds and the ehrysan- themums had fallen down and had to j be staked up and tied and the old canna stocks had to be cut down and removed. By the time I had got everything good order and the leaves all burned and the walks raked out I thought it was about time to receive some praise from somebody, for I had observed that Mrs. Arp was sewing by the open window and j occasionally gave me an uxorial j glance. And so I sat down on the iron seat and mopped the honest dew j from my aged forehead. Suddenly she drew near the window and re ; marked: ''I wish you could just see Mrs. Crawford's front yard and flow er garden; they are as clean as a parlor. I was there yesterday at the meeting of the aid society and every thing was lovely. Mr. Crawford cer tainly knows how to keep a place in order.'' Well, that disturbed my tranquil ity a little and I was about to say maybe you had better get him to come up here and fix this one, but I dldent. But I wasent serene at all and ven tured to remark that Mr. Crawford dident do it, for he had to weigh cot ton ail day aud'I reckon it was Mrs. Crawford's work. I paused for a re- ply, but stie resumed tier neruie ana thread and I sat and ruminated. When 1 came to dinner I continued my broken remarks and said that Mr. Crawford dident have four acres of big oak trees to litter up his little front yard and I thought that a ear pet of rich brown leaves wasent an unsightly thing nohow. She asked me to send down my plate for some chicken. After another pause I re marked that I had long since found out that we couldeut have every good thing in one place. We cou'dent have a beautiful grove and a fine lower ga rden near it, for flowers won't grow under shade. Those beautiful roses that Mrs. Laramore sent me have the sunshine all the day. "Let m? help -you to one of these poached eggs," she said. "But I reckon," said I, as I handed my 1',at'"' 'Mrs. Crawford had things fixed up extra fine because the aid society was coming." "It is going to meet here next week," my wife remarked in a mollifying tone of voice. "Won't you have a glass of buttermilk; it is fresh and good." And so I gave it up, and after din ner she came out and was quite pro fuse in her admiration, for she knows that it takes lots of encouragement to keep me at work. I'll keep on ! opiumjto a man's wife after the hus cleaning up until that aid society j band had warned him not to do so, comes and goes. I'll watch the leaves : aRlj i10 opium affected the woman's as they fall and catch them in my ! l,ealth, the druggist is liable for hat. I'll sweep and sandpaper every damages. The court further holds walk and then Mrs. Crawford can go home and praise me to Mr. Crawford and put him in pouts. I'm going to put out two more rows or strawoerrj p'.ants to-day, for she hinted that we hardly had enough. I heard her tel the girls that she was ashamed of , that old patched-up carpet in the I dinning room, for it had been down ! four winters, and she wished she did j j have a large rug to pui unuer me table. I'll surprise her with one i some of these days when I sell my t j gold mine. I will sell now, 1 reckon, since McKinley was elected, for there is gold in it.

Business developments during the past week have not been unfavorable, although some disappointment has been felt in certain lines because de mand has not improved as much as had been expected. Unseasonably j mild weather and the intervention of a general holiday account for un satisfactory sales of some kinds of manufactured goods, and for a sharp decrease in the total of bank clear ings. Large produce exports, abun dance and ease in money markets, a continued tendency to industrial re covery and a widespread feeling of confidence in the prospects for more active business after the holiday sea son are the hopeful features of the situation. Traders as a rule do not anticipate much enlargement of busi ness operations during the closing weeks of the year, but in all branch es thev look forward to steadilv im proving conditions after the holi- j days. Business failures in the Uni- j ted States and Canada during last j week, according toB. G. Dun & Co., j numbered 413, against 12G for the ' corresponding' period last year. Cotton prices show an advance of 1-10 of a cent per pound, which has been a disappointing response to the efforts to create bullish sentiment by predictions of a falling ou in the plantation movement.
