rnF rARIFF ~pIsCCssION.

srx,rnRs MORRILL,, DAWES and their
like. among the Republicans, are doing
their utmost to prevent any reduction OF
the Snrplus revenue Of the Government.
Senator DAWES even went 50 far a. TO
stipmatize Secretary MASSING's recon-
mendation that the revenues be re-
duced to correspond with the needs OF the
Government a. treason itself to the great
underlying interests and prosperity OF the
country
While the peculiar interests Of our State
and of the Ohio Valley make US disagree
with Secretary MANNING rs to some OF
the articles from which the revenue should
be removed OF reduced, no one, whether
Republican or Democrat, should hesitatea
moment in saying that the revenue should
be reduced. There is no reason under the
sun why the great sum in the Treasury
sbouId he increased 500 900, 900 or in a
year or two $l2j, coo, 90, annually.
Though the agitation of the question may
cause ! temporary disturbance in business,
il had better occur now than any m
The withdrawal OF the peoples money by
taxation merely 70 hoagd it in the Treasury
will inevitably produce . crisis in the al
fairs Of the Nation.
There are various ways IN which the
revenue can be reduced and still leave sui
fcient protection to our industries. For PIX
ample, the tax can be removed from tobacco.
This would reduce the amount many mil
lions and remove . useless burden. The
tax on sugar could be removed. This
would be another reduction OF
$50. OOO, 900. Then the duty III be re-
moved from many articles not
produced in this country. Then the whole
tariff should be revised hy reducing it on
some things and raising it on others. The
tariff on the kinds Of wool grown in this
country should he raised, a. this
Is about all the protection the farmer has,
and the present rate Of duty Is not ade-
quate. The tariff as At present adjusted IS
very unjust TO some industries. Let this
be altogether reformed.

A Grsa. American Accomplishment.

1t is quite a trick to jump of q train
going along say at thirty miles an hour,
and the Americans take a pride in Guilt
waiting dexterity in this trick. 1t takes
considerable practice before it can be
done successfully. The way to jump is
always with the train and on the left hand
side of the latter, letting the right foot
rest on the step and the left foot swung
from the step. Then jump so that the left
foot will touch the ground first and the
right foot Immediately follow it, so as to
be able to run. Some of the men Jump
from the middle Of the train or the front,
but most Of them go TO the rear car and
Jump so that if they fall they will not roll
under the cars. A correspondent says:
THE best man ! ever saw, and the only
man who could hold his feet and stop
himself without running at all, was
Charles Phillips. He could jump from a
train running thirty-fye miles an hour
and stop without running a foot. Court

The Quaker Thou"

When the nOvelists of the last century
had occasion to introduce u Quaker into
their uctions they took care to mark him
we'll by OVERLAPPING his speech with thee
and thou" and, indeed, at n time this
phrase was u common slang term for the
Friends. The Use Of these pronouns Is
partially a survival of the time when the
lower orders employed them habltually
and is a curious instance Of the correct
ness OF phrase surviving among the verf
persons who, next TO pedants n scienr
lists, are currently credited with being
the cOrrupters Of the language, while the
educated had fallen into grammatical in
correctness. The Quaker writers affirm,
however, that the use Of You" instead
Of the thou" Of the grammars originally
rose from a desire to compliment the per,
son addressed by ascribing to him the
Importance belonging to two or more,
and wrote many t~ractates in support OF
their" view. Be this as IL may, Ii is indis-
putable that technical correctness was on
their side, and sovereign and newspaper
editor are alike incorrect when they use
the imposing we in place Of the plebeian
~. To say thou" (pro formal to a
man was, it will be remembered, in the
reigns Of Elizabeth and James /, simply
to insult him. "I thou thee, thou taitOr,
cried Coke . Raleigh when the latter
Was being tried for his nfe-LOndon
Society.

H.irpln s..,,..le. o. Sow Yera.

The hairpin statistics of New York city
are among the most interesting and wiz
furnish food for thought even among the
most frivolous. It Is estimated that
soms S45, 6eO, 900 hairpins are sold annual
" In this city, and giving half Of this
amount to women outside of the city who
do their shopping here, leaves each mem
Der of the fair sex in Gotham just S5
hairpins q year. Then when all the
babies, little school girls who wear their
hair flowing or braided in pigtails, and
the hundreds Of young ladies who prefer
singled locks are counted out, almost
double that amount is given each woman
with long back hair.
Where do the liz, 5000 0 hairpins go
every Year, One would expect to find
them scattered all over the town, yet how
seldom are they encountered on the side
walk, and the weekly sweeping at home
fails to gather but q half dozen or SO,
even though a hundred may have been
lost in that same house.-New York

Hint From a Matchmaker.

People spend q great deal Of money
needleSsly for having their watches
cleaned" said q Maiden lane jeweler the
other day. "A gentleman living in New
Jersey called here one day last week and
said his watch had stopped Unexpectedly
and then gone on again the same as usual.
lie wanted it cleaned, SIS he feared that il
4 stopped again he might lose q train.
Most jewellers would have taken the
watch, cleaned il and charged him s. OF 81
for the work. The proper thing to do If
a watch acts in that way Is to take note
OF the hour, minute and second when it
stopped. Then a ieweler can see just
where the dirt that has stopped the works
lies and can remove it by fastening down
the main spring and taking of the balance
wheel. Otherwise he should have TO
clean all the works, not knowing which
particular part needed cleaning. ! told
my customer this, and he had only a trifle
to pay for having his watch put in order.
II the watch had really needed cleaning
Sll over it is not likely that it Would have
gone on again after stopping. New

Tourists. Fashionable Routes.

Tourists. even those Of America, gener-
ally follow beaten routes, going here ana
there for no better reason b a because
tourists have been doing the same thing
for generations. The "a OF persons who
decide to visit Europe do not make up
their minds what they want to see or what
is most worth seeing. They merely wish
% travel I'm the same direction and in the
same way, visiting the same places n
having the same experiences that their
fathers and grandfathers have done.
Nineteen out Of twenty tourists at this
season 20 10 London, Paris, run into
Switzerland. descend the Rhine, return
10 Paris by Brussels. recrOss the channel
10 Liverpool and sail back home with the
impression that they have exhausted
Europe, or at least whatever is really in
teresting. They make another journey,
perhaps q third and a fourth; but they
usually cover the same ground. Their
object is less 70 become acquainted with
the old world than 10 be able to say that
they have seen there.
Until within a few years few tourists
went 10 Holland and even now not one in
a hundred goes TO Spain. Some OF the
LANSE EAA AUAAo NAAAAA
like Ravenna, Rimini. Siena, Prague,
Charities, Tours, R~egensburg, Louyain,
Burgess, Liege, though on the regular
routes, are neglected because the ordinary
traveller has not cared TO visit them. II a
man can go to Europe but once, and is
limited as 10 time and money, he must do
the best he can. But why need he repeat
his narrow experience again and again
when he can just as easily and cheaply
have new Generally, however, it is not
those with small means who travel 50
stupidity; it is they who have ample in

To Tougher Paper.

In order to render paper as tough as
wood or leather a plan has been devised
which, it is said, effectually accompliShes
that purpose, namely by combining
chloride of zinc with the pulp in the
course of manufacture. II has been found
that the greater the degree Of %concentra-
ton Of the zinc solution the greater will
be the toughness of the paper, and that it
