How the World Is Fed.

even the oldest and best informed man
in the trade" said an experienced New York
salesman in the grocery business, cannot
begin to tell you anything about the
wonderful extent of the traffic in food.
Figures don't seem to express the
thing so that anybody can realize how
enormous the business is. Now every
body knows that corn makes only a small
part of what anybody eats mean by that,
nobody eats corn enough to make it princi-
pal article of diet. Yet there is one estab-
lishment in Maryland-a corn factory, they
call it-where there are 100, 400, 900 cans Of
corn a week put up and sold Now consider
that this Is only one establishment out Of
hundreds in this country, and thousands in
the world, where food is put up in cans
Then, think that corn is only one small item
of food even among the canned goods. And
then remember that camel goods are merely
u fraction OF the food supply, and you will be
ready to acknowledge that the fooI indus
ties are too great to be readily grasped by
the imagination. More than three-ffths of
all the workers of the world are engaged
wholly in raising or handling food. Herald

Florence Grahame had repeated these words
during the past fifteen minutes, and she was
no nearer the solution of the matter which
puzzled her than she had been before. Sud
denly she arose from her seat by the window
of the pretty sitting room and went into the
room adjoining, where little woman of 30

and fluffy yellow hair, was quietly sewing

Grace, or Mrs. Harding, was Florence Ora

being childish in disposition she was accus-
toned to defer to Florence and Charles Hard
ing, her husband, in everything. 1t was
very seldom that she was consulted on a sub
ject of any Importance, and consequently
she fully appreciated this opportunity of dis
playing her wisdom. She took up the letter
which Florence had placed on the table at her
side, and this is what she read:

If even a king should look me in the eye,
IswOuld not bend it humbly to the earth;
Yet, dearest mother, such the gentle worth
OF thy benignant presence, angel mild,
1t ever hath my proudest moods beguiled,
And given to softer, humber feelings birth
Was it thy minds calm, penetrative power,
Thy purersmind, that secretly came DER me,
And unto heavens clearer light upbore me?
Or did remembrance sting me in that hour
With thoughts Of words and deeds which

That gentle heart. still loving me so blindly

A Vigorous OpeniGg.

All signs indicate that the Democratic
campaign Is opening with unusual vigor
for this season Of the year. In Indian.
apolis 5000 Democrats marched In pro.
session on Saturday, and then lis
tened to speeches by Hon, w. II. Eng
lish, Hon. Joseph E. Mcdonald and
Governor Gray. This is in the hons of
the Republican candidate, which shows
that the Democrats are prepared to carry
the war into Africa,
The &C .essions to the party ranks keep
up, and one Of the latest of them 10 Mr..
d. 8. Early, Of Harrisburg, who In 1886
was the Greenback. Labor candidate for
auditor general in this state. Mr.. Early
thus sums up the situation: I" / think the
Democratic party is TIE peoples party,
and mean to support its candidates.
Mr.. Cleveland has given US an honest,
uncorrupted administration, and as true
American citizen 1 believe it is my duty
TO vote for him.
Through Illinois and Michigan, the
same situation is presented. Ia the latter
state one Of the big converts is ELI L.
Harrington, Of Grand Rapids, well known
throughout the state for his former con.
nection with the Grand Rapids Eagle,
the leading Republican paper of Western
Michigan. The cratic Sam Jones, at
Chautauqua, predicted that Cleveland
would win, and prefaced the prophecy
with this: "If l had prayer for the
United States ! should pray: 'Oh,
Lord, give US every four years a presl-
dent who is brave, a man who has back
bone like circus pole !"
But let there be no overconddence this
year. The best way of making Mr.. .Cleve.
lands election absolutely certain is by
complete organization and now is the time
for that work.

state does not exceed $3.50 600.
Everybody consumes woolen goods, and
especially our workiDgmen. Many OF
them wear only woolens the whole year,
and they are now taxed 5S per cent aud
much more on some OF the cheaper arti.
cles - to protect our wooden mills aud
labor, when the proposed protection dc
fsats itself by taxes upon the raw mate =
