THURSDAY, JANUARY 7. 1 8! W
CONGRESSMtN AT-LARGE
The states that tfiiin reprenenta
tiveH in congress under the new
apportionment will do well to elect
them nt liirri instead of hastening
to make Hpecial districts for them.
Hetter inenare likely to he cliosen
where there is a whole Htate to
delect from, as experience has
shown in repeated instances; and
they have peculiar chances of use
fulness by reason of tlieir lare
constituencies. It would not be a
bad plan, in fact, to have a portion
of the congressmen of each state
elected in that way at all times.
Ac the matter is now arranged,
there is more or lesscmllict be
tween the dilferent members from
the same state on account of
strictly local interests. Nobody is
authorized to speak for the state as
a whole in the house, but several
individuals speak for separate fac
tions of it, and do not often look
beyond the limits of their respec
tive districts. Thus the service
necessarily loses some of its dignity
and value, and questions of general
value to the state do not always re
ceive the ritfht sort of attention.
Kach member takes care of his par
ticular locality, while the Htate in
its entirety is not adequately rep
resented. If each state would elect
one or more of its allotted number
of members on a general ticket the
result could not fail to bebenelicial
in several respects.
There is no constitutional neces
sity for the election of congressmen
by districts. They are apportioned
to the states as states, and may be
elected according to such methods
as the states prefer. The constitu
tion says nothing about districts,
and they were unknown lor a long
time after the formation of the gov
ernment. It is not required that a
congressman shall live in the dis
trict by which he is chosen, but
only that he shall be "an inhabi
tant of the state." The district sys
tem has certain advantages that we
can not alTord to dispense with;
but it is possible to improve the
present order of servieeby provi
ding for the election of a given
number of congressmen as servants
f the state as large. Men chosen
in that manner would have an ex
ceptional standing and their iiillu
ence would be forcible in the
adjustment of issues affecting the
highest interests of the states,
which are now so frequently neg
lected. When Gen. Logan was a
congressinan-at-large from Illinois
he did almost as much for his state
as lie accomplished at a later time
in the capacity of a senator; and
there have been other cases of the
same kind. It is not to be doubted
that such an arrangement would
tend to raise the standard of con
gressional qualification, as well as
to promote legislation of a wise
and worthy sort. The state needs
to be represented as a state in the
house. There are obvious reasons
why the district plan can not be
expected to yield all that is desir
able. It is all right as far as it
goes, but it stops short of doing a
perfect work, and its defects can
probably best be remedied by a re
sort to the expedient of selecting a
part of the delegation by the votes
of the people of the whole state.

STUDENTS AS RESPONSIBLE
BEINGS.
In discussiug certain evil pre
vailing among the students at Har
vard University it should not be
forgotten that the president and
faculty of the college have certain
very well defined views as to the re
lations existing between the institu-
. tiou and the students.
It is a bad thing for stundeuts to
drink too much or to maintain bar
rooms in their clubs, but if the Har
vard authorities are right in insist
ing that they are to have no control
over their students except to see to
it that they do a certain amount of
iutelleclual work before securing
their degrees, they must interfere
with the habits of the students only
to the extent of suppressing public
scandals. In a word, the Harvard

It is a trito but correct remark that,
bh the hiniian form liiw been molded by
nature, the best shape is undoubtedly
that which sho has given it. To cudeav
or to render it more elegant by artificial
moans is to chuiuro it; to make it much
smaller below and much larger above is
to destroy its beauty; to keep it cased
up in a kind of domestic cuirass is not
only to deform it, but to expose thu in
ternal parts to serious injury. Under
such compression us is commonly prac
ticed by ladies, the development of the
bones, which nro utill tender, does not
take place vonformably to the intention
of nature, bocauso nutrition is necessa
rily stopped, and they consequently be
como twisted and deformed.
Those who wear these appliances ot
tight lacing often complain that they
cannot sit upright without them are
sometimes, indeed, compelled to weai
them during all the twenty-four hours;
a fact which proves to what an extent
such articles weaken tho muscles of thu
trunk. The injury does not fall merely
on tho internal structure of tho body,
but also on its beauty and on tho temper
nnd feelings with which that beauty is
associated. Deauty is in reality but an
other namo for expression of counte
nance, which is the index of Round
health, intelligence, good feelings and
pence of mind. All are aware that un
easy feelings, existing habitually in the
breast, sjH'odily exhibit tlieir signature
on the countenance, and that bitter
thoughts oi A bad temper spoil the
human expression of its comeliness and

A Negro Servant's Wit.
A copy of the Salem (Mass.) Gazette
of Aug. 13, 1783, contains the following
anecdote.
A gentleman in tho state of Connecti
cut regularly attended public worship
on tho Lord's day with nil his family;
on tho Sunday evening ho always cate
chised his children and servants on tho
principles of relhjion, and what they
heard tho minister deliver from tho pul
pit. He had a negro man who never could
remember a note of tho sermon, though
otherwiso smart At lust his master
peremptorily told him lio would on Mon
day morning tio him up and flog him.
Next Sunday evening, when interro
gated, he had forgotten all. On Mon
day morning his master executes his
threat so far as to tie him up.
Tho fellow then cried out, "Oh, mas
ter, sparo mo, for 1 remember something
the minister said."
"What is it?" said the master.
The fellow replied, "This much may
suffice at this time."
The master was so pleased with his
wit that ho forgave him.
INVESTING MONEY.
VALUABLE OPINIONS ON THE BEST
WAY TO INVEST $100.
Varying Iileaa of Well Known Capitalist.
Saving; Flanks and Building and Loaa
Association Htroiu mended a the Saf
est Dace to Keep Money.
Hundreds of thousands of thrifty
young men and women throughout the
'United States, who are ambit iiinti in bp.
cure a competency for their old age, are
lit a loss to know how to invest their
small savings to advantage. There is
Scarcely a successful business man in
Nw York who does not receive in hia
mail every morning requests for informa
tion as to tho best way to invest small
sums of money.
I With a view of obtaining some opin
ions on the subject a reporter called a
lew days ago upon somo of the most
prominent and successful business men
if the country, uoted for their shrewd
Investments, and asked them to give
llieir opinions of the best way to invest
(100.
l" Mr. Henry Clows, -who has earned a
Vputation for his sound judgment in all
matters relating to investments, said;
1 'The best investment for f 100 is to
place it in a good savings bank and make
the foundation to build upon by frequent
additions to it. When tho amount gets
largo enough the first acquisition of proi
erty should buy a homestead, and when
that is accomplished it will give such
comfort and eaee of mind to the owner
and his family as to make life worth the
living,
I 'When a man is known to own his
house it gives him a status in tho com
munity greater than anything else. It
lilso gives liim an established credit
which, when obtained, if judiciously and
conservatively used, wdl mako it much
easier to acquire this world's goods.
, "The best citizens are those who own
in fee their homes and their contents, for
St develops qualities in a man's nature
that otherwise may remain dormant or
hidden like a light under a bushel.
( "Among these qualities are pride of
position, which will keep u man respect
able; tho love of country, which will
make him a patriot, and almost more
than anything else contribute to make
him, not only respected by his neighbors
and friends, but also a good and faithful
husband and a loving parent."
A "GILT EIK1KD BOND," SAYS Pit. DF.I'EW.
Dr. Chauncey M. Depew advised that
the $100 should be made grow to $1,000
before being invested in any enterprise.
"Put it in the savings bank," said the
doctor, "where it can draw compound
Interest, and add to it as you can until
it becomes a thousand. Then consult
some wise, conservative banker and in
vest it in a gilt edged bond which can be
registered. There is no investment for
$100 except to put it into a savings bank
that is absolutely safe. The chances are
that if he went to inquire ho would meet
speculative gentlemen who would land
his $100 in some mining or other similar
scheme which promised large returns,
and that would bo the end of it"
Mr. Erastus Wiman is of the opinion
that "the best way to invest $100 is to
buy a share in some well managed Jocp.1
building and loan association. These
associations represent the aggregate sav
ings of tlieir members, and the money is
invested only in houses built by one of
their own number. Tho investment is
therefore a very safe ono, bocauso men
will pay for tlieir homes and the interest
duo thereon sooner than they would pay
for anything else. Tho money can be
withdrawn, if need bo, while it rests
with tho society, and it pays as good an
interest as any other safe enterprise can
nfford. Compared with the savings bank
it yields about twice the interest, while
the security is generally just as good.
- "Of ccmrso all depends upon manage
ment, tint taken as a whole 'the money
of poor peoplo put into building loan as
sociations has been moro honestly ad
ministered by the poor peoplo themselves
than has been any other financial trust
in tho country. In proportion to tho
enormous amount invested, which now
reaches over $700,000.000 reaching that
of the capital of all tho national banks
the amount of defalcations has been in
finitesimal. "Tho rate of interest paid has been
larger, the purposo accomplished nobler,
and the security just as safe as that of
tho average railroad, bank, mortgage or
insurance investment. 1 put $100 away
every month in a building and loan as
sociation, conscious that it is the very
safest and best investment that I can
mako. By it 1 am enabled to insure my
life for $30,001). ami 1 am all the timo ac
cumulating, 'not only the principal, but
interest, which thus far has averaged 10
per cent
! "uncle" rufus hatch's views.
'Uncle" Rufus Hatch, who has lost
over $1,000,000 in Wall street, does
not recommend any "high flying" in
vestment His advice for putting out
$100 was to "go slow," and ho added:
"If you can find a solvent savings bank,
put the $100 there, and be satisfied with
8 or 4 per cent, interest It would seem,
however, from disclosures that national
banks nnd savings banks and all other
banks are more or less open to criticism.
Tho vast majority of the public do not
know how to take care of their savings
and are easily induced to put them
wherever they are promised a big per
cent, interest.
i "However all this may be." and "Un
do" Rufus Hatch looked very serious,
"under any and all events, keep out of
Wall street. Teach the public to shun
its precincts. It is simply suicide for a
man to go into Wall street with $100. If
ho had $100,000,000 that might do. My
advice to thrifty persons is to keep the
$100 saved and keep adding to it until it
has accumulated to a reasonable amount.
Then buy an annuity for lifoorn paid up
lifo insurance for your wife and chil
dren." New Yoik World.
