In mechanics , arts and sciences , in nearly everything useful and practical as Avell as orna mental and theoretical , we are adA'anc- ing on Avhat might be termed a high pressure plan. In the worry , bustle and perplexities of the life of to-day there are too many who are forgetful of the amenities of social existence , and-soine are even careless of the du ties devoh'ing upon them in the fam ily circle , in the home ; the place Avhich should be every man's haven and more to him than all else beside. It is the carelessness of home sur roundings on the part of fathers , espec ially in the Avealthier circles Avhich of ten leads to unpleasant results. Not unfrequently runaAvay matches are the result of parents' inattention to their daughters , and to a lack of knowledge as to their dispositions , qualifications and rational desires and ambitions. Illustrations of this are practically given every Aveek and oftener , in our large cities and even in small towns. The recent case of the marriage of a young Avoman to her rich father's coachman is only one of many exam ples of the kind. The father , Avith but tittle reflection , fixed the social stand ard and wanted the daughter to mar ry in the circle he named , or not at all. Then followed the sequence , and sa cred family ties Avere broken. Valua ble lessons might be learned from oc- Curences of the kind , but it is doubt ful if they will be. The AA'orld will : lash along at the same rapid pace in tent only upon the large concerns of iife , leaArmg the smaller , yet more im portant , to end as fickle fortune may decree. Omaha Republican. THE word "dude" has at last found its way into court. A young man in Montreal has made complaint against another for insulting him by calling lim "a dude. " The plaintiff's appear ance in court satisfied the spectators ; hat so far as he was concerned tlie de- 'endant had not seriously maligned lim even if he applied the epithet in question. The legal point at issue , lowever , AA'as whether an insult , pun- shable by fine or imprisonment , had ) een offered in public. For a long time , in the amusing turn which the : ase took , the real issue Avas lost sight of. Both sides were represented by ible counsel , and a larfje number of * O witnesses had been summoned chiefly. t seems , Avith a view to discovering ; hc exact meaning of the Avord "dude. " To this end a multitude of questions Avere asked and a beAvildering variety of definitions were elicited , as may be mao-ined Avhen it is mentioned that o ; he Avitnesses included lawyers , civil service employes , policemen , Avell cnowii young s\vells , tailors , mer chants , theatrical agents , and journal- sts. The court room was packed dur- ng the trial , and the assemblage in cluded some of the leading people , "n the end the court stated that it Avas horouofhlv bewildered as to what a O * 'dude" actually AVUS , but as it Avas not jroved that the alleged insult had tak en place in the public street he would dismiss the case. The plaintiff de clares that he Avill carry the case to a lio-her court.Ve AA-ould suggest that f he isn't a dude he should challenge lis insulter to mortal combat. Bee. THERE is no question but what pol ios enters largely into the conditions of trade , and it is generally an admit- ed fact that during the presidential -ear , particularly if there is any prob ability of a change in the administra- icHi , business is dull and unsettled. lowever , the fall trade is picking up n a very encouraging manner through out the ( aast , and should the election n Ohio on Tuesday next result in fa- or of the republicans and the indi cations now point that way there I will be an additional reviA-al in busi ness "as an evidence of the faith cf the public in continued republican administration , " as a leading eastern journal is led to observe. > Hamlet said : "But I have that within Avhich passeth show , " it is thought he had a complimentary cir cus ticket in his pocket.
