It is not to be denied, however, that the products of maize have been losing popularity i n this country; they seem to be going out of fashion ; they are a little too coarse for the tender throats of the generation that has come and the one that is coming. The tastes of the people are growing somewhat different; patent rned icines and pred:gested foods, made of nobody knows what, seem to go together, and with these have como new forms of indigestion, dyspepsia, nervous diseases, and new causes of wor ry. There is an idea in the minds o! the new generation that corn, and all the varieties of food—all the toothsome dishes that are de rivable therefrom, are to be left to those whose tastes are com mot), and whose associations must be low. This, consciously or unconsciously, is the view ol a consmerame munuer 01 must who are to take up the destinies of the Republic and carry them a little way on their King jour ney; and this is curious, too. when we think of the nature ol our political fabric. Are we tc change our principles and beliefs by means of a change of diet?— •Joe!

Bryan’s new book, “The Old Would and Ixa Wats,” gives striking lesti mony to his hold on the populist mind. It recounts and prolusely illustrates his recent journey around the world. It lias b 11 issued five mouths, and we are advised that, in that short period, tour large editions aggregating 41,000 copies have been called tor. The reports of agents, which have been submitted to us, would indicate that the demand ior it is well nigh spontaneous and uni viral—that it exceeds that ior any other book published ior the subsetiption trade since the per i >d ot “Grant’s Memoirs.” Col. ! Br van’s book with like success *1 depends upon no sympatbet c clement for its strength. But t has i n the part ot the people the enduring feeling of personal con fidence in the great moral and jn tellectual integrity ot its author. It has an equally pronounced admiration tor his brilliant ubtili ties, and the untiring energy that enabled him to cover the world in his noted tour—and to photo* graph and describe it in his inim itable way. Wi t h o u t official place Cob Bryan is everywhere regarded, at home and abroad, as a vital force in American affairs. As a student ot men and govern ment, and of governmental con ditions, his observations and con clusions profoundly interest the people. Hence the great sale ot his 1)00 K, aescripuvn ui men ttim tilings seen during his noted tour around the world and thn ugh the Nations. It is vitalized by •251 artistic engravings,.from pho nographs taken by bjm or under bis super v i e i o n, representing men, places and things that in terested him and that specially interest every American reader. It is a most unique presentation ot a wonderfully interesting jour ney that has caught the attention of the people, and met with great demand. It is sold only through soliciting agents. .
