Protection a Failure and Fraud.

From the PhiIIdelDhiG LsdGer (I7id.)
Senator Sherman comes all the way from
Ohio to tell us thai ''the object of our present
tarin system is to protect labor and to enable
manufacturers to pay honest wages for hon
est labor" The tarif has been in operation
long enough to accomplish its object, but 1t

The silk Keeling Experiments.

Much interest is felt in every part of
the country in the tests of the newly in
vented automatic silk reels by the De-
partment of Agriculture. If the inven-
ton should prove to be what is claimed
for it it will give a fresh impetus to seri-
culture in this country, and eventually
revolutionize the silk industry of the
world.
1t has been known for over a hundred
years that silk of fine quality could be
successfully produced here, and the his
tory of the experiments inaugurated in
the colony of Georgia and the building of
the Savannah filature are well known
facts. Various and persistent efforts
have been made TO encourage sericulture
on a commercial scale in this country,
but the cost OF reeliug has always been
an insurmountable obstacle to success.
although thousands have raised silk in
an experimental way, or as a pleasant
domestic diversion.
There is something attractive about Sc
riculture, especially to ladies and chill
dren. 1t will be gratifying, therefore,
II the experiments in Keeling should dem
onstrate that silk can be produced in n
marketable form in this country in COM
petition with the cheap labor of the East
Even If the experiments should be sue
cessful it is not probable that silk will be-
come one of our great staples in the near
future. 1t may, however, In two or three
years become an important product. and
one that will eventually have a very
great influence on our national pros
perity.
AS soon as the experiments Of the Ag-
rcultural Department shall have been
completed the report will doubtless be
published, giving all the details OF the
process and its cost as compared with the
cost Of Keeling by hand in China and
Japan. The outcome OF the experiments
Will be awaited with must interest.

The alleged freedom OF the Miss issippi
river has been considered an important
matter tor a long time, but New Or
leans paper thinks that practically that
freedom is a deception and a snare. II
says: zone corporation owns all the
drinking water in 1t as far as New Or
leans is concerned, and now comes Capt.
Eads and claims the exclusive right to
tie up boats 10 its banks. Evidently, if
this thing goes on, the public will soon
have no rights in the great continental
river. A few unfortunates still claim the
privilege TO find surcease OF sorrow and
to end their earthly troubles in its yellow
waves. Somebody might claim exclusive
rights of suicide by drowning, and exact
a royalty for the use OF the river in such
cases. 1t is about the only free privilege
left in connection with our great water
way.n

OPEN THE HOUSES.


Sone OF the most eminent physicians Of
Montreal say that a great many women
and children have been attacked after
their return from their summer rests.
whether at the seaside, or inland, with
typhoid and malarial feayers and diphthe-
ria. There are many such cases in which
the patients are in imminent peril at
present. The origin Of these diseases is a
mystery even TO medical experts. as those
who are suffering reside in w~ell-sewered
and properly ventilated houses. A prom
inent surgeon. when asked his opinion of
of the cause, could attribute it to nothing
but shutting up the houses while the res
idelts were absent, thereby making the in
teriors damp and unwholesome. Many pa
rents have had the affection OF losing chill
dren, some two or three, by the fatal cpl
demic or dipitheria. which has never been
so prevalent as this year. Typhoid fever
has also been greatly on tie increase. If
closed houses breed disease. may not clos
ed rooms in occupied houses do the same?
There is no doubt about it: and these clos
ed rooms may very frequently give rise to
diseases whose origin puzzles us.-Herald

but shat it shows is rather pleasant-tle

But there is no question that these first
years Of his life had their lasting effect
upon the temperament of this great mirth

HABITS OF

What WI ha We principally 10 contend
against in children are little tricks. which,
scarcely perceptible at FIRST, gradually
grow until a habit is formed which will
prove not only a great annoyance. but an
evil that cannot be cured. A case presents
itself in my experience of = sllyand nervous
gill, who upon entering a room, always
stood at the door, and pressing the end OF
her little finger to the woodwork, would
twist and turn it with a screwing motion
for some seconds. The little popularity
was allowed to pass %unnoticed until now,
a grown woman with little ones OF her
own, she cannot enter a room nor face a
stranger without the preliminary of what
must appear to on-lookers an idietic action.

THE LOOM OF LIFE.


All day and all night / can hear the jar
OF The loom Of life, and near and far
1t Thrills with its deep and mufled sound
AS the tireless wheels go always round.
Busy, cetselcssly, goes The loom,
In the light of day and the midnights gloom.
The wheels are turning early and late,
And the woof is " ound in the warp of fate.
CLICK. click. there's a thread of love wove in;
Click! click! another OF wrong and sin
W hat a checkered thing will this life be
When we see il unrolied In eternity
When shall this wonderful web be done?
In a thousand years perhaps, or one
Or tomorrow, who kroweth? Not you nor /.
But the wheels turn on and the shuttIes fly.
All, sad-eyed weaver! The years are slow,
But each one is nearer the end, we know;
And some day the last thread shall be woven
in,
God grant II be love instead of sin.
Then are we spinners Of wool for this life
web-say?
DO we furnish The weaver web each day?
1t were better then, o kind friend, to spin
A beautiful thread-not II thread OF sin.
