A Girls Toilet Articles.

A sensible girl will not keep a lot OF
cosmetics and drugs on her toilet
table, but there are few articles she
should always have in a convenient
place. She should have an array OF
glass-stopped bottles containing alco-
hol, alum. camphor, borax, ammonia
and glycerine or vaseline. A little
camphor and water may be used as q
wash for the mouth and throat if the
breath is not sweet. Powdered alum
applied to a fever sore will prevent it
from becoming very unsightly and
noticeable. Insect stings or eruptions
on the skin are removed by alcohol.
A few grains of alum in tepid water
will relieve people whose hands per-
spire freely, rendering them unpleas-
antly moist. A few drops OF sulphuric
acid in the water are also beneficial
for this purpose, and are also desirable
for those whose feet perspire freely.
We should always recommend care in
the use OF scented soap; in many cases
the perfume is simply disguise for
poor quality. A good glycerine or
honey soap is always preferable. OF
course, one may rely on scented soap
from high-class manufacturer, but it
costs more than it is worth. In addition
to the soap for bathing. white CASTLE
should be kept for washing the hair.
Occasionally, little borax or ammo
MIA may be used for this purpose. but it
is usually too harsh in its effects. =

Industries and lessen prices. This is
the great argument of a high protect
i've policy. But the natural develop
ment OF that policy discredits it. This
is denied By some of it's ardentfriends
But it is obvious. The very fact Of
the rapid rise of trusts illustrates it.
Undoubtedly wise and humane view
of high tariff regards it not as de-
vice OF taxing the many for the few,
but as National benefit. It is a
theory that a nation may we'll pay a
high price for its industrial independ-
ence of the rest of the world, and
that patriotism should persuade its
citizens to pay, at least for time.
higher prices for certain commodities
than other nations pay, in order to So
cure the immense advantages of indus
trial independence. This is the most
engaging, because not wholly a mey-
cenary argument for high tariff.
But it is sentimental, not practical.
In practice, just in the degree that a
high tariff tends to secure that indie
pendence, the independence is abused
to the selfish interests of class. The
abuse is expressed in the word trusts.
Are they patriotic? Arc they formed
for the public benefit or for private
advantage? Are the prices which,
like all monopolies, they can COM
mand, the price of greater National
independence or a tribute paid to mo-
nopolists? Yet are they not in this
country the simple, natural and in
evitable result OF the industrial stu.
alton produced by a high tariff? Is it
supposed that except for such tariff
they would be generally organized?
The natural corrective is foreign COM
petition. If it be argued that such
competition would merely tend to in.
ternational trusts with the same ends
in view, that is only to say that the
evil would become so vast that ii
would be prohibited as against public
policy. Laws to prevent combina-
tions to raise prices are proper and
familiar. But the discussion of the
subject of trusts will inevitably deepen
the conviction that high tariff, by
its necessary results, produces the eff
focts of such a combination. -Harper's

FISHING WITH A RIFLE.
Exciting Sport Shooting the Wary Sos
Otter In the Pacific.

OlScE IA JIG 18CluCs
Surf shooting is practiced in Oregon
and Washington, but chiefly in the VIZ
entity of and to the north of Gray's
Jlarbor. Formerly all the shooting
was done from the beach, or from
the bluffs, but as the otter became
scarcer, increasingly wary, and SO
more difficult to obtain, other methods
had to be adopted.
The sea otter shooters of this coast
devised the plan of building scaffolds
in the water out beyond the surf from
which to shoot At the lowest tides
in the spring they plant firmly in the
sand three or four long poles so that
they shall form the angles OF a triangle
or of square. These are braced by
means of Stats nailed from one to the
other. which also form a ladd err by
which to ascend, and at the top of the
poles a platform is built with sides and
a roof. forming sufficiently comfort
able house, forty feet above the waters
surface. These shooting scaffolds, or
as they are called locally, .'derricks,' y
give the otter shooter great advantage.
In distance he gains four to five hun
dred feet, while the elevation above
the water greatly extends both his
range of view and that of his rifle. In
fair weather the shooter goes to his
derrick before daylight in the morn.
ing and returns at night to the shore,
but sometimes, when the tide is high
and heavy surf is rolling, it may be
impossible for him to get to it for a
week at a time, or he may be unable
to reach the beach for the same pc

The skill attained by these men in

stood that the head of the sea otter
the only part that is seen above the
water-is very sma mark, certainly
not more than three OR four inches il
diameter, and yet it is said these
shooters not unfrequently kill at {
distance of one thousand yards. Mos
of their shots are made at two hundred
yards and over. They use heavy
Sharp's rifles. fitted with telescope
sights, and shoot always from rest
When the sea otter is killed it sinks
at once, and it may be several days OF
aweek before it rises to the surface
and is brought by wind and current
into shore, The hunters employ
Indians to patrol the beach and secure
the dead animals, and in occasional in.
stances where the otter does not sink
dogs are employed to bring it to land.
Owing to its exclusively marine habits
and its great wariness. we may assume
that it will be many years before the
last sea otter shall have been killed,
but it must always be very rare ami

TRUSTS AND PROTECTION.

donopolistic Combinations Made Possible
Only by High Tariff.
We have often stated the argument
against industrial trusts, and one of
the arguments against high tariff is
that it favors their establishment
Trusts are more numerous and powe,-
full than ever, and protection has re-
Gently achieved a signal victory. Dur
ing the campaign the large dependence
of trusts upon protection was plainly
demonstrated, and it will hardly be
commended that if the protective policy
had been defeated at the polls, trusts
would have continued to multiply, ex-
cept upon the belief that there would
be no serious disturbance of the tariff.
The relation of high tariff to trusts
is evident and simple. A high tariff
discourages importations of protected
manufactures. Such Encouragement
is supposed to secure the home mar
ket If, then, the existing domestic
producers of protected manufacturers
can agree to combine instead of COM
pete. they can destroy domestic COM
petition, and command the market at
their own prices. In a period of
tendency to the aggregation of capital
this result is quite sure, as experience
proves, to follow high tariff. Such
a tariff is expressly designed to secure
domestic monopoly. But that mo-
'nopoly, once established, will by its
own law tend to its own aggrandize-
ment. Defended from foreign compe.
titlon, it will strike at the domestic
competition which remains.
This is the actual situation, and it
has naturally alarmed some of the
warmest friends of high tariff, who
see plainly the dangers of trusts
They see that they destroy the funda-
mental argument for a high protect
i've policy, which is that it tends to
diversity industries, and that diversi-
fed domestic industries are indispen-
sable to great nation. Conse quently,
even if a high tariff inevitably en-
hances the price of articles which it
excludes from importation, the in
crease should be periodically borne
tor time, because the increase OF pro-
