The Evil Effects of Hxpnotisu,.

A we'll connected and modest young man, who lives with his mother in a fashionable part of Paris, recently attended what is called solree d'hypnotisme at Q friends house. He was sent to sleep and a stuffed mannikin was placed by his side, which he was told was man whom he must murder The youth did as he was told, and when a knife was put into his hand he ripped the dummy figure open with the fendish exulta- tion of man who was wreaking a long cher ished revenge on an enemy. After that he awoke, but ever since he has been laboring under the deiusion that he had murdered his mother. He ran away from his home and sat weeping on bench in the Champs Ely sees, when two policemen, whose curiosity had been excited, came up to him. On see ing the dreadful agents of the law the poor fellow took to his heels and was, of course, pursued and arrested. It was only when brought face to face with his mother that he regatned his senses-Home Journal

Opportunity for n seamstress.

There's good living to be had in the sum- mer by any tailor or seamstress who will start a little shop on any we'll travelled thor oughfare, and advertise in bold letters on the windows: Buttons sewed on here" During their days of enforced bachelorhood the adult male population is continually bursting off its buttons. A man will wear his shirt or a waistcoat all winter and spring without any doctoring of those garments, but within two days of the time that his wife has gone into the country there will be gaps in his clothes and half dozen buttons will be just hanging by single thread.
 The work of fastening them on seems so slight that hs doesn't feel it worth while to go to tailor or clothing house, besides which fact the proprietors have an unpleas- ant way of starting a customer up six flights of stairs into hot room occupied by & dozen beery gentlemen, and compelling him to stand around for quarter of an hour until he can be waited on, so the buttons continue to burst and dangle until the victim buys some more clothes or sits up until the small hours sewing his apparel together and makes botch of it after all am told that in Philadelphia two girls have a regular route that they travel over on certain days repair ing rents and attaching buttons and making good thing of it.-Brooklyn Eagle.

A PLEA FOR FREE WOOL.

The policy of free wool and tax on wooden goods is a popular one with the proprietors of our woolen mills, and it is safe to say that if a presidential election were not impending the demand for it would be universal. The abolition of the tax would stimulate production and so provide more work while tbere would be no reason for any reduction of wages. Indeed, wages ought to go higher, for, with increased manufactures and larger markets and considerable reduction in the cost of imported raw material, the capitalist can we'll afford to pay higher wages. Practical men whose eyes are not stuffed with partisan wool understand this.
 One of these men, who is described as one of the largest wooden goods commis- sion merchants in the United States, has a letter on blankets in this weeks American Wool Reporter which makes strong plea

TOO MUCH PROTECTION.

The man who declared his belief that we would be much better off as a nation if the Atlantic ocean were a sea of fire was no sillier than the unbaked political econ omist who declared that we could shut out importations altogether by prohibitory duties without doing serious injury to any body. Both are consistent protectionists, however, for they carry to it's logical results the doctrine of protection. Under it, of course, we could export nothing, but then we could develop our home mark ct, and this market lis the best in the world Those things we need, and which even tn e republican platform admits cannot be pro- duced here, could not come in, but then we could get along without them. Our home market would still be ''the best in the world" for the manufacturers, for, freed from all foreign competition, they could charge what they pleased for their products. And the consumer could whistle if he didn't like it. The arrangement would be even better than the tariff for the wage workers, for it would keep out immigrants, have to bid in the market, as it does now, against foreign pauper labor" To be sure, our revenues would fall off, but the deficiency could be made up by direct tax ation. And, of course, there would be no such thing as foreign commerce, for the Chinese wall of prohibition and the sea of fire would save us from that evil, but the thousands who make living by commerce could tackle something else.
 Protection in all it's complete and per feet beauty, as revealed by the fiery sea and prohibitive duties, is great theory. It is the one which has made China what

for free wool and consequent large ex- port trade in woolen goods. He estimates that there are now lying idle in the United States 5000 sets of woolen cards, partly because the tariff on wool works to the disadvantage of the home manufacturer. Free wool, he maintains, would give the American manufacturer of blankets an advantage over his foreign competitor amounting to $9 per hundred weight, or $1S0 a ton, for much less than which the American blanket could be landed in for eign markets. With wool coming in free these 5000 idle cards would be set in mo- tion and kept going. Three thousand cards going the year round would produce | $S0 ,000, 900 worth of goods, and con sume about 100000 pounds of wool. They would furnish employment for 36, 900 operatives, and make pro ductive $50, ,00O worth of invested capital which is now unremunerative. The prospects of a great export trade, he believes are being surrendered by keeping tax on raw wool. The merchant adds: "1 am no advocate of free trade in manufactured goods, but can see no argument which justifes any tax, much less an unnecessary and exorbitant tax, upon the raw materials of American industry"
 The view of the subject advanced by this business man is that which practical men generally hold and desire to see tor mulated in effective legislation. And free raw wool was the original American policy. In the first tariff law ever passed in this country wool was placed on the free list and remained untaxed for thirty five years. A duty was imposed in 1894, and now after sixty four years of protection the wool grower, for whose benefit the tax was i'm posed, has to sell his product for less money than he got at that time. If the wool grower is not benefited by the.tax it is folly to crowd the woolen manufacturer and cramp his competitive resources by making him pay heavy duty.
 Free raw wool is the best policy for the farmer, for the manufacturer, for the op erative and for the consumer, and the plea of the commission merchant in the Wool Reporter will find favor with the voters in November.

SENATOR ALLISON is not consistent when he opposes tariff reduction. In 1870, when there was less need of reduction than there is now, MT Allison said "The tariff of 1S46, although confessedly and pro- fessedly tariff for revenue, was, so far as regards all the great interests of the country, ,..as perfect tariff as any that we have ever had But may be asked how this reduction shall be made. It should be made upon all lead ing articles, or nearly all, and for that pur' pose, when can get an opportunity in the house, if no gentleman does before me, l shall move that the pending bill be recon mitted to the committee on ways and means, with instructions to report re- duction upon existing rates, or one-hfth reduction" The Mills bill should be very easy for Allison to digest.

PROTECTION AS IT WORKS.

Protection is beautiful thing-it is all blessing and sunshine for the manufacturer who derives it's most directly important benefits The workman who is told that his wages have nothing to do with his in telligence and powers, that they are sealed by the barometer of the tariff, when he looks for the benefits of the system goes on a hunt that resembles the search for a needle in a country barn-yard. Protection as it works in it's relations with the wage earner has been we'll illustrated by MT Mills as follows
 'I saw the other day an illustration of the truth of this fact. A workingman in & mill said to a manufacturer, I don't believe you pay me enough. 1 have got a wife and children, and can hardly support them on the wages you are paying me, $1.25 day. l think you ought to pay me $1.50 day The manufacturer replied: T can get my laborers from Germany, from France and from England, and I can get plenty of laborers at $1. 20 a day. and if you don't like that pay you may stop work. We'll said the workman, if that is the case, l suppose have got to take the $1. .25 day.
 A1GeE HIS week 5 WOrk WAS aI an end and he had received his weeks wages, he said to the manufacturer It is getting cold. What will you charge me for pair of those blankets that have been working on {! Five dollars!' said the manufacturer Five dollars, said the workingman. Why l can buy those blankets in England or in France or in Germany for S3 pair, and won't take your blankets, will send over there and get a pair. oh, no, you can't do that, said the manufacturer, there is a tariff of $2 pair which added to $3 makes the price to you $5. That is my protection. So the workman paid his $5 and took the blankets. And then he started for home, thinking, poor fellow, how strange this tariff is''
 And he is thinking yet. When he gets through thinking about this beautiful thing it will be about election day, and he will vote as he thinks. He is not going to vote to make blankets at the wages of pauper labor and pay a bounty on their purchase that is to go into the pocket of the manufacturer. If he must work at unprotected wages he will vote to take the protection off the manu- facturer
 The republicans can't pull the wool over the worknan's eyes forever

THE additions to the free list proposed by the Mills bill would make work for many hands here in fashioning the raw materials into finished products. Salt is the only article that could be consumed here in the shape in which it was imported The increased importations of wool, flax, hemp, lumber, ,etc., would call for increased labor. The factories would find an in' creased supply of work, and that would augment the demand for labor and raise wages

 Nor be with wine or rebel passions spent. Bear thou against the wind, a banner flying

 With wings of darkness and a head all hoary; Or the storms self, all mighty in its anger: storm a Banner, an Eagle and @ Clangorl
