The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1888-08-22

RECENTLY there arrived in New Y ork,
says the Cultivator, three large steam
ers laden with rice from Japan. We
have always received large amounts of
rice from Patna in India, and Rangoon,
Burmah. japanese rice is the sweet
est and richest in the world, but its
chief expectation heretofore has been
to Great Britain. Now the politicians
tell us that we can not or do not raise
all the wool we need in this country,
hence foreign wool should be imported
free of duty. If the same argument be
applied to rice, that important food
product would find its place on the free
list. But no, foreign rice pays one hun
dred per cent duty under the Mills tar
iff--wool has no protection! Sugar
pays sixty-eight per cent duty on the
foreign article-wool has no protection
Is this justice to northern and south
ern farmers alike? Why select wool
and potatoes and hay for the free list
and favor rice and sugar with unreason'
able protection?

WHERE is the price of American farm
products made? That depends. If
the home market consumes the bulk of
the product of any article, the price is
regulated in the home market. If the
country has large surplus of any
product, wheat for example, which it
is exporting to England, the English
prices determine and regulate prices in
this country and the English price is

CUPID'S DECADEYCE.

In ancient days. when all was young
Aud Love and Hope were rife,
Dan Cupid fel on rustic fare,
And lived a country life
He rose betimes at break of day,
And round the c)untrv hurried;
Upsiirring hearts that were unwed,
And soothing down the married.
But then, on wider mischief bent,
He hied him 10 the city
And finding much TO suit his taste,
He stayed there-more's the pity.
Men built him there a golden house,
Bedight with golden stars;
They feasted him on golden grain,
And wine in golden jars.
They draped his pretty nakedness
In richest cloth of gold,
And set him up in business,
Where Love was bought and sold.
And thus he led a city life.
Forgetting his nativity;
Since then he's gone from bad to worse,
From Cupid TO cupidity.

The mayoress of northern Kansas town,
who was elected under the new woman suf-
frage law last week, came down to her office
the other day with a Mother Hubbard on,
and as she sat cross legged in the mayors
chair the city clerk noticed that she had a
hole in the heel Of her stocking and that her
hustle was to one side. He reported the fact
to his wife, his wife told the hired girl, the
hired girl told her fellow, her fellow told the
city marshal, the city marshal told the
rnayoress, whereupon the city clerk got fred
and the town is scandahzed The mayoress
said she would wear her hustle in front, be-
hind or sideways, and it was nobody's bust

mayoress is red headed. Wichita Eagle.

Make was the little 6-year-old daughter of
a clergyman who had taken great pains with
her religious instruction, and had held before
her the goodness of the Supreme Being, so
that she should have in her mind always His
kindness and mercy as well as power. One
morning her mother, passing the open door of
the room in which the child was playing, saw
Miss Make standing on chair before the
mirror, with her face close to it, scrutinizing
her little phiz with great earnestness, and
with a long sigh she remarked:
