Growing Up With the Country.
Manchester Union Dom

The Manchester Mirror tells the
mugwump prodigal that he is welcome
back in the republican household, and
that the veal pie will be got ready as
soon as possible. But the indications
are that the mugwump has got beyond
the vealy stage. He has tarried in the
democratic ranch SO long that lie has
acquired an appetite for food fit for
strong men, and in the course of an
other year he may be depended on to
take his bitters straight with the best
of us.

The Failing Prince.

So far as can be judged by the press
reports it grows more and more evil
dent that the crown prince at San Re-
mo is afflicted with an incurable dis
ease. The imperial family has ceased
to hope for his recovery. The Occa-
sional appearance of Improvement is
followed by a renewal of the gravest
Indications. The decrease in his
strength has caused saddening
change in his aspect and has trans
formed him from a robust into an aged
suffering. The most that seems to be
hoped for now is that the crown prince
may be able to return to Berlin in
May and pass his last days there.
Since his family has recognized that
fatal issue is most probable, the
crown prince himself has expressed an
urgent desire to return to Berlin as
soon as possible. There are many
things about the circumstances con-
corning his sickness that recall similar
experiences at the time Garfield lay so
long at the point of death. The ex-
pressions of sympathy and manifesto
tiOns of interest that were felt by the
old world in the sickness of the Presi-
dent, find answering feelings of SYM
pathy and interest among our people
for the dying prince and his family.
Unfortunately the same struggle among
the doctors as to the diagnosis and
progress of the disease is kept up and
likely to continue until the death OF
the royal patient.

We Really Hope So.
BrattIeboro Reformer, Dem.

The st. Johnsbury Caledonian thinks
"that whatever was the original pur-
pose of the organization of the repub-
lican league of clubs, the general
result was good. The idea that the
work of the league is to be that of
a bureau of information, and that its
purpose is emphatically not that of a
boosting bureau for aspiring politicians
will meet with general approval if
faithfully adhered to-" But does the
CaledOnian believe that there is any
such idea among the concOctors of the
scheme, or that it will be adhered to 2
st. Adams labor is not of that kind.

Mrs. Quincy A. Shaw, of Boston,
who is, by the way, the daughter of
Prof. Agassiz, has for eight years sup
ported free kindergartens in the poor
est quarters of Boston and Cambridge,
at a personal expense of as much as
$4,000 year. This is only one of
Mrs. Shaw's many philanthropic works.
Mr.. Quincy Shaw, by the way, has the
finest collection of Millet's paintings
and Japanese lacquers in the country.
This proves the catholicity of his taste,
for it would be hard to find greater ex-
tremes in art than the broad brush
work of Millet, and the fine work on
Japanese lacquers.- Harper's Bazaar.

A writer in Science says that, while
as yet we have discovered no way of
avoiding cOntagion which comes to us
in the air, we are just beginning to
find out the extremely important fact
that the air does not become cOntami-
mated with bacteria unless they are
allowed to dry. Recent Investigations,
he adds, have shown a smaller number
of bacteria in the air of a well kept
sewer than in that of Il poorly venti-
lated school-room.

In the process of forming stamped tin
ware nat sheets of metal are placed in
powerful presses and forced by means of
dies into shape. This shaping process
and enormous pressure on the metal COM
plstely disintegrates the tin coating,
breaking the fbers and rendering the sur
face of the wares fractured, rough and un-
finished. This defect IN rcmedied by re-
plating, which contemporaries and rsunites
the surface, correcting all fractuosity and
making the ware bright and new. The
ware to be replated Il dipped into cald-
ron of boiling tallow, 90 hot that the origi-
nal tin plating Is softened mp and melted
from the surface Of the sheet iron. Then
the article 80 treated is dipped into pot
of fused tin, where 1t takes on new coat
ing of that metal. 1t is then dropped q
second time into the grease pot, which has
the effect of evenly distributing the coat
ing of tin, taking of the superfiuous
metal IL is then put into a box Of bran,
where it is cleansed Of the thickest of the
grease, and finished by being rolled In
nour and middlings, which completely
cleanses the ware, leaving 1t smooth and
bright. -American Artisan.

women ~ Bill Collectors.

The employment of women as collectors
of doubtful bills Is, am assured by q
legal friend, being practiced nowadays
with great success. He says that women
are more persistent and industrious to be-
gin with, and that men are forced to be
civil to them, who would not hesitate to
set the dog on male dun. Some of the
most VIGOROUSLY tight listed debtors In
town, he assures me, have been brought
to financial time by being pestered by
these petticoated avengers Of unfulflled
obligations. One man, who had to be
sued for nearly every debt he contracted,
IL now tanned a. completely a. Rarey
used to tame . kicking horse. Women
are the only debtors the female collectors
cannot work, he says. They fight shy
Of dunning their own sex, both for the
reason that the latter do not hesitate 70
resort to violence toward them at times,
and because even II they are not actually
assaulted they are certain to get chsyr
talking to, which they do not relish.
With the fair sex the male dun yet has
the call, and here, at least, his ONCE ID
likely TO endure for all time.-Alfred
Trumble in New York News.
