the cool silk grenadines to the costly silk
muslins, jetted gauzes, and Siciliennes

black now worn upon every occasion is all
the more noticeable because it is in such
rich contrast to the variety of gay-col

youthful wearers is the Louis XIV. habit

by slender oval buckle of Irish diamonds
set in dark blue enamel.
Models of Partisan designs show striped
fabrics intermixed with plain materials in
every grade of costume, from the taut and
jaunty trotteuse suit for mountain climb

designed for yachting, to grand toilets for
full dress occasions, made of Lyons faille
striped with tinted satin, or with flower
brocaded stripe in pouh de sole. alternating

A Hireling of Monopolists.

Jarrett, once a leader of organized
labor, but now an employee of the Penn
sylvania monopolists, is in the West
making speeches to working-men as a
working-man. He is not working
man and has not been a working-m
in years. He is an agent of the East
ern trusts, combines and pools, in their
pay, and actuated solely by desire to
serve them and earn his salary. This
Jarrett is the paid representative or
attorney, who, two years ago, hired
out to the tin-plate gang for the par
pose of deluding the working-men in
Colonel Morrison's district He is q
bulldozer, a false pretender and a
sham. He is a tool of such creatures
as B. F. Jones, Carnegie, Jim Blaine,
Steve Elkins and the lesser lights of tho
monopoly manufacturing rings. HIS
presence in the West as q 8 working
man" is an insult to the intelligence
of the people. He has not haniled
dollar in years that did not coma out
of the pocket of a monopolist in the
form of salary for personal services. =

A Foolish Quarrel.

A thimble, needle and piece Of
thread were all lying on a lady's work.
table together.
Now, the needle had rather hasty
temper, and could give sharp pricks
when it pleased, and this morning it
was out of sorts; so it tried to pick
quarrel with the thimble, and said.
spitefully: .You gave me some hard
knocks yesterday, and wish that you
would be more gentle in future. /"
'sIt is true; I do push you hard some-
times answered the thimble, 'sbut you
know that is only when you do not do
your work properly, and our mistress
makes me keep you up to it.
s.Pray, don't you two quarrel, said
the thread, wishing to be peace-maker.
s4You mind your own business" re-
torted the needle.
My business is your business said
the thread, for you are no use without
me, and am none without you."
That's just it, said the thimble. "a
great deal of nonsense is talked in1his
world about being independent. But
my own opinion is that people should
try to help one another, for from the
highest to the lowest. we are all very
dependent on the good services of our
neighbors for something or other, every
day of our lives. Lille Folks.

labor of Canada at a cheap price, and
work for US have to compete with the
Frenchmen. Now, if the Mills bilf
should pass, with lumber on the free
list, there is no doubt that it would
stimulate the lumber business to some
extent in Canada, consequently their
men would get more work and better
wages at home and would not flock
over here so much. That would give
our laboring men a better show ana
better wages here
The same operator goes on to say
what every intelligent student of the
wages question knows, that wages are
governed entirely by the relation be-
tween supply and demand. "When
there is a large quantity of logs" Ire
says, "to drive down the Kennebec, as
was the case few years ago, driving
wages are high. And it is just the
same in all branches of the business
and in fact in every business. When
business is dull. and we can not sell our
goods, we have to shut down our mills.
Give us all the market you can, both
at home and abroad. When we can
ship spruce deals to England, as we do
some years, and spruce and pine lum-
Der to South America, our home mar
ket is always better, our mills are then
running lively and our men are then
all employed. "-Detroit Free Press.

A knowing Dog.

There is an old lady who owns very
intelligent Newfoundland dog, who
some time since acquired the habit Of
occupying grandmother's chair when.
ever he found it empty. Threats and
even blows failed to start him. The old
lady, finally, when she wished to occupy
her seat, opened the window and cried
out, s'cats!' which was too much for
Bruno, who rushed to the window.
while grandmother rushed fos. the
chair. This worked well for soma
time, but one day Bruno found grand
mother seated. and after walking
round, he jumped to the Window and
began the most. violent barking. This

THE TAX ON LUMBER.

Why Its Removal WIN Not Reduce the
Wages of American Laborers.
The lumbermen in Maine ought to
be pretty fair judges whether the pas
sage of the Mills bill, with its free lum-
Der clause. will reduce the wages OF
the working-men in that industry.
The opinion of one of the largest OPP
orators in that State is that it would
not reduce wages, and he gives his rea-
sons for so thinking. My impression
is" he says, s'that it would make their
wages better. And will tell you why
1 think SO. We hire from two hundred
to three hundred men every winter to
work in the woods. About eight out of
every ten of these men are Frenchmen
who come over from Canada to work
in the woods and then go back in the
spring. So you see we get the pauper

DEFENDING TRUSTS.

Republican Decay Illustrated by the Ut
terances of Party Leaders.
The position of the Republican party
towards the questions that are OF the
most vital Importance to the masses OF
the American people has been stated
by the two acknowledged leaders of the
party in two pithy sentences. Whole
volumes could not have stated the case
more thoroughly or made it more clear
to the dullest comprehension.
The question is before the people
whether the masses shall be able to buy
their clothing more cheaply, or whether
they shall have the privilege of getting
more whisky for less money. Shall the
working-man be able to clothe himself
and his family warmly and decently
with his wages or shall he be able to
get gloriously drunk for what single
drink now costs him?
nee for President, says: g 1 have no
sympathy with this demand for a
cheaper coat
The curse of the present time is the
formation of trusts" to monopolize
business in different lines, to restrict
production, force up prices and give
the monopolists absolute power over
the customer at one end and over the
employee at the other; to make the con-
sumner pay whatever the trust de-
mands for the article and to make the
worker who produces it take whatever
wages the ..trust" offers. There is
scarcely an article in daily use by the
| masses that is not at the present time
under the control of trust or for

CHAPTER XVI.

The figure which Norris followed moved
rapidly, though with the uncertain, falter-
ing step of either weakness or age. Once
or twice the man glanced back furtively,
then, seeming to take the alarm, turned a
corner hurriedly, disappearing for the mo-
ment from his pursuer.
When Norris reached the spot where he
had disappeared he could see nothing OF
him, but hack was just turning from the
curb, a little further on, and he thought he
caught q glimpse of a thin profile within it.
He broke almost into run at that, looking
anxiously for another carnage, but before
he found one he brought up with sudden
force against gentleman who planted him
self directly in his way.

Very faint then and low,
AS the queer little fellow
Was ready to go.

On cheeks white and fair,
And soon on her arm
Lay the dear golden hair.

With strong, loving arm,
Took her safely to Dreamland,
And kept her from harm.
