The editing Of country paper, during q partisan excitement, is. oftimes. a most disagreeuble work. Perhaps to day you arc called upon to elit;eisc severely, yet justly, a personal friend. Ba:, unless the editor is a moral coward. the work must be done. The one who writes is blamed while the many who talk are not, and it is not taken into consideration that the criticism is but q reflection of the public mind. The public man who denounces edi tor;ai criticism is certain to have done something 10 deserve it, and the editor who fears to say so is coward and unfit to follow his occa- patton.

The Democratic press is still shsuting about the Republican
 party being in league with the
 great railroad corporations and sub sidies. The charge is simply IT. ticulous. The Union Pacific rail- roof was mainly started by Thos. II. Benton, ono of tie most hOnored and incorruptible members of the Democratic party, aided and en- -c. uraged by William Cullen Bry- ant, then one of the great leaders of that party. and also by Washing ion Irving, a Democrat not un- known to fame wherever the lan- guagc of Sheridan and ShakcspeaI Q i' spoken. In 1856, 50 anxious was that party to grant subsidy that in the National Democratic Convention. inc following rcsoiu- tion was put in the National Plat form and endorsed by Buchanan and Breckenridge:
 "Resolved: That the Democratic 1 party recognize the great import ance. ill political and commercial ] point of view, of safe and speedy | communication through our own ! territory, between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the Union, and that it is in the duty of the Feier- al Government to exercise all its constitutional power to the tam mcnt of that object"
 4 Democratic Congress had be- gun the work of granting subsidies to railroads before this time, and the policy was re affirmed in 1856. and all constitutional power pledged to the principle. Now is fhe time to shut up fhis campaign nonsense ab~rt subsidies.

A Mothers Love.

An exchange tells the following: Last
Spring a little babe was left at the resi-
dence of Uriah B. Garman, in Harris
burg. They accepted the little stranger
and did for 1t all that kindness could do,
and it throve until few weeks ago,
when it had an attack of cholera in
fantum, and last week it died. The
night after its death, about eleven o'clock
a man and woman came to Garman's
door and asked to see the babe. After
entering the house they introduced
themselves as the father and mother of
the child. The couple were richly dress
and gave every evidence of belonging to
upper classes of society. The woman
cried over the corpse and called it T" her
baby" and the man appeared almost
equally moved. They ordered nice
coffin, and all arrangements to be made
first-class. The woman explained that
she wanted to keep the child but her
mother would not have the scandal, and
insisted on its being put in other hands.
1t is supposed the couple are either mar
ried or will be and that the child was
born out of wedlock, though belonging
to such class of "blue- blooded" society
that the parents of the girl could not
bear the idea of having their circle
known of the daughters misfortune
They departed as they came and are un-
known. 10000

BY hydraulic pressure capable of apply
ing weight of 1000 tons. The next
thing is to cut the sheets In halves;
each sheet, of course, when cut, contains
100 stamps, This is done by girl with
a large pair Of shears, cutting by hand
being preferred to that of machinery,
which method would destroy too many
stamps. They are then passed to two
other squads, who in as many opera
tions, perforates the sheets between the
stamps. Next they are pressed once
more, and then packed and labeled and
slowed away in another room prepara-
tory to being put in mail bags for de-
spatching to fill orders. If single
stamp Is torn, or In any way mutilated,
the whole sheet of 100 is burned. Five
hundred thousand are burned every
week, from this cause. For the past
twenty years not single sheet has been
lost, such care has been taken in count
ing them. During the process of man
ufacturing the sheets are counted eleven
times.

About Postage Stamps.

IN printing steel plates are used, on
l. which 200 stamps are engraved. Two
men are kept hard at work covering
them with the colored inks and passing
them to a man and girl, who are equally
busy printing them with large rolling
hand presses. Three of these little
squads are employed all the time, al
though ten presses can be put into use
in case of necessity. After the small
sheets of paper upon which the 200
stamps are engraved have dried enough
they are sent into another room and
gummed. The gum used for this pur-
pose is a peculiar composition made of
the powder Of dried potatoes and other
vegetables mixed with water, which is
better than any other material, for
instance gum arabic, which cracks the
paper badly. This paper is also of a
peculiar texture, somewhat similar to
that used for bank notes. After having
been again dried, this time on little
racks which are famed by steam power,
for about an hour they are put in be-
tween sheets Of pasteboard and pressed

"Oh, no they are all for gardens

behind the times. The show people
here are full of energy and enterprise
They sometimes get crazy over special
ties. The craze now is for elephants and
sea lions. You can get almost any price
for elephants now, and it is the same

with dyspepsia and nervousness and
was in bed two years with a complica-
ton of disorders her physicians could
not cure, when was led by reading q
circular left at my door to try Parker's
Ginger Tonic. Having been so often
deceived by worthless mixtures, nothing
haveled us to make any more expert

dollar and fifty cents, and she is now as
well as any woman, and regularly does
her household duties.-33, A. ~

THE INGENIOUS PAPER MAKERS.


ITO WHAT novel uses paper may be
i put in the every day business of life
is still absorbing the attention of nu-
merous ingenious manufacturers of pa
per in this country and Great Britain
From time to time the Circular has pre-
sented its readers with the unique
achievements of the skilled and enter
prising workers in paper. The present
Worlds Fair at Sydney, Australia, of
which too little information reaches the
United States, presents in one exhibit
many of the novelties-not to say won
ders-that have been wrought out of pa
per. The exhibit in question is house
built exclusively of paper; the gas fix
lures, chandeliers, kitchen range, and
parlor stove are of paper. Paper carpets
cover the paper floors paper window
shutters are supplemented with daintily-
worked lace paper curtains. Not only
is there large bedstead of paper, but
the blankets, sheets, quilts, are all of
paper; and in paper wardrobe are un-
dergarments, outer shirts, and bonnets
of paper. In the dining-room is paper
table, set with plates, dishes, napkins,
drinking utensils, all of paper. At latest
accounts from Sydney, it was proposed
to give banquet in this building; the
eatables, were, however, not to be of
paper.
This novel paper display in Australia,
though an extreme example of the uses
to which paper may be put, also answers
the question, frequently put by appre-
hensive men, as to what mankind is to
do when the supply of wood for ftlrni-
| ture and building material shall have
been exhausted. A woodless world
seemed like the beginning of chaos come
again. Now we know that paper can
readily be substituted for wood in all the
necessities and even luxuries for the
household. The raw material for the
paper so employed is, in most instances,
coarse fibrous grasses that grow wild,
and can be had for the gathering. We
dolnot forget that in many points in
the United States wood itself is trans
formed into paper: but that is only
where wood is still of such superabund-
ant growth as to be in the way of the
farmer. In England, where timber is
scarcer and far more valuable than in
this country. paper is made from grasses
and the variety known as 'esparto''
has already become famous in com.
merce. This and other fibrous grasses
can be had for the cutting and gathering
and grow spontaneously over vast areas
So, however zealously the destroyers Of
forests may labor, the paper makers are
safe, and so too, is the human family
from any inconvenience on account o.
the exhaustion of the wood supply
Paper will take the place of wood Just
as readily as the locomotive supplanted
the stage coach.

Tribute of Respect.

Resolutions passed by the Executive Com
mittee of Publication at meeting held April
LIST, in regard to the death of Hon. William F.
Taylor member of the Committee:
The Committee records with the deepest sor-
row the death of the Hon. William F. TAYLOR.
From the organization of this Committee to the
day of his death, he was an earnest, faithful,
and laborious servant of the Church in this de.
partment of her work, and by his udicious
counsel greatly aided IN the prosecution of the
various enterprises entrusted to the Committee
by the General Assembly.
His lifelong training in business gave. him
exceptional qualifications for the place which he
held, and his wisdom and experience were ever
highly valued by his colleagues.
His earnest zeal as a Christian man ever
prompted him to respond with alacrity to every
demand upon his time and his energies.
We bear cheerful testimony to the amiability
of his Christian department, to his fidelity in
duty, and his 6rmness in endeavoring to carry
out whatever plans seemed to him best for the
promotion of the interests of the Church. and we
give expression to our sense of the irreparable
loss which the Church has sustained in his re-
moval by death.
