In %endeavorlng to give to their preparation

popular favor, nor are they attempting to at

prove its rare merits to the satisfaction of the
thousands who have been benefited by its use,
and whose restored health and happy lives
bear living testimony to the power and virtue
Of this excellent preparation.
It has stood the most severe tests of the
medical profession, and the fact that no other
preparation or the market has been so freely

is conclusive evidence that this has been the

THURSDAY OCTOBER, "a, 1889.
THAT ORE ISSUE.

At the risk of talking on compar-
atively exhausted subject, I wish to
show how the law stands upon the
matter under consideration, and to re-
ply to communication in the Gal
weston News of September Goth, over
the signature of VIM. Headen.
Mr.. Headen is one of those demo.
cratic free trade deputy collectors of
customs who endeavor to make lib
eral law and liberal decisions of the
secretary work a hardship upon
American industries, grown up there
under, by giving an Interpretation to
that law and those decisions contrary
to all precedent as we'll as contrary to
all professions as to what is the proper
policy of this country, as enunciated
by the leaders of his own political
party.
This might be excused in him if he
were following the letter or spirit of
the law, as he is only an executive Of
ticer and subordinate one at that,
but he goes outside and beyond the
law and attempts to argue upon
the reason of the law and why
it ought to bear the interpretatio
he seeks to put upon it.
Mr.. Headen says:
"It is argued by some that the
Consular invoice showing the re-
spective value of the metals in the
country from which the merchandise
is exported to the United States
should fix the relative value of the
silver and the lead. The law however
SECTIONS 2S3S, 1904, 29O6, 1904, and
Others of the revised statues of
the United States) only requires in
voices Of this character for goods
paying duties ad valorem.n
Lead ore pays specific duty and
silver ore is free, and Furthermore
their classification in the United
States depends neither upon their
values nor upon their classification
abroad, but upon their proper desig-
nation at home. Looking into this
statement we shall see that it would
be preposterous to admit that ores
which are, respectively, lead and
silver ores in foreign country as
determined by foreign standards, but
which are not such ores under our
domestic designation, that they
should be regarded as respectively
lead and silver ores on being i'm
ported into the United States or chat
they should be regarded as aught
else than such ores as our CONNER
cial designations define them to be.
again, lead ore at Laredo and
silver ore likewise coming from
Mexico or elsewhere, are necessarily
lead and silver ore at every other
port in this country.
"This being true, the character of
must be determined by a standard
common to the whole country, i. g. by
its chief market or markets. 1t

HOW EtchinSs Are Made.

No branch of art within the past few
years has attracted such universal ;i;en-
lion as etching The art of etching is
not, as is popularity supposed, a new III
vention, but the revival of an art in Which
Rembrandt and Albert Ourcr c:;cailed.
The process by which an etching is made
IS both delicate and difficult. 1t Is ac-
complished by coating q coraer plate
with preparation of wax, urGn which
the artist traces with sharp instrument,
called the needle or point, the lines OF
his picture. The plate is then immersed
in acid, which eats into the lines laid
bare by the needle, and the acid bath IS
repeateti. The lines when sufficiently
bitten are stopped up with fine French
vSrnish.
This process has been repeated more
ehan tift! tines in some pic:e before
the proper effect Of light and shade was
obtained. Etching is really a drawing
on p:ateeti:us giving the genuine work
Of the artist as much effect as II an o.!
painting. |, is this absolute quality OF
art possessed by etchinss, Is distinguished
from the purely mechanical methods OF
engraving which gives 10 thea taelr
value. The inS used IL printing IS thick;
the plate is warned b;y placing 1t on a
heated marble slab. so that the ink Will
6ow freely enough to fill up III tie lines.
After hiking the Plate IS ruaoed Clean
leaving the ink only i, tne lines, except
ing where certain effects o! E%%,kt and
shade may he desired, not represented by
shc lines. These can be obtained by the
s?liil CT the printer, who can produce
beautiful etfcG:s 81 lis manipulation OF
The ink On the niate. There is q great
difference in plates in this respect, some
recurring much more skill to print than
others. After the plate is ready the
paper, having first been daEpened, Is
placed on it and then covered with felt.
The press consists of an iron bed, per.
2ectiy true and level, for the plate to
rest on, and an iron roller which passes
over the plate, eXertiag great pressure
80 that the paper is forced into the lines
of the plate After each impression the
plate is cleaned and mixed ag&&;;a. and tho
same process so:e through vita, SO that
the printing OF e.chinSs cannot be bur.
ried. To insure uniformity, sample
print is before the printer to look at
This is either printed by the etcher or
suDerintan&c4 by him. So great is the
skill required to properly print etchlngs
that less than half dozen printers in
the country have won reputation az
being FIRST class
Etchings are quite expensive, and often

White Birch Too:hpickS-

A toothpick factory is one of the four
ishing wood working establishments at
Harbor Springs, Mich. and it is one OF
the largest factories Of the Kind in the
country. White birch is exclusively used
in the manufacture of the tcothpicks,
and about 100000 Of the handy little
splinters are turned out daily. The logs
are sawed up into bolts each twenty
eight inches in length, then thoroughly
steamed and cut up into veneer. The
veneer is cut into long ribbons, three
inches in width, and these ribbons. eight
or ten at time. are run through the
toothpick machinery, coming out at the
other end, the perfect pieces falling into
one basket, the broken pieces and refuse
falling into another. The picks are
packed into boxes, 1,5o0 in a box, by
girls, mostly comely looking young
souaws, and are then packed into cases
and finally into big boxes, ready for ship
ment to all parts Of the world. The
white birch toothpicks are very neat and
clean in appearance, sweet to the taste,
and there IS wide market for them.
The goods sell at the factory at $3.50 a
