The metal smiths trade is very powerful
and influential i'll China, wrought metal be-
ing favOrite decoration for houses, affairs
in churches, town halls, assembly rooms and
business places of the more wealthy firms
The metals used are brass, white bronze,
which closely resembles Britannia metal,
gold bronze, ordinary bronze and sill yer. The
work Of the Chinese metal smith is greatly
superior to that of our own in variety, orig
inality of design, and in artistic finish. The
smiths turn out bowls, vases, urns pitchers,
ewers, basius. cup standards, pipes and other
smoking utensils salvers. lamps, candelabra,
lanterns, bedsteads, chairs, tables, church
furniture and numerous other articles, all of
substantial workmanship and standard ma
teriaE
The metal smith makes good wages, and
has a good social position i'll China, but the
industry is not a healthy one, the Chinese not
understanding the physiological action of the
metallic oxides on the system. and not know
ing how to prevent or remedy the injuries
they suffer. Tho Chinese system of casting Il
very similar to ours but in cleaning and poll
, ishing they use no chemical agents. relying
almost entirely on manual labor and the use
of lathes fitted up with polishing brushes
They understand oxidation, and produce
malachIte and azure effects and the like very
effectively. They secure these, not by the
direct action of acids and acid vapor baths,
but by burying the objects to be treated in
various kinds of decomposing organic mat
Ter. This is, OF course, slow and expensive
process In one respect the work of the Chi
nese smith is peculiar
The soldiers in many parts of the Chinese
empire still wear fine mail armor, helmets,
breast plates and shields, and the same ar
ticles are worn by the participants in civic
professions and official pageants. As con-
sequence such armor is still made, and the
armorer occupies in China about the same

TO BE PROUD OF.

1t always gives us pleasure to re-
cord the successful result of well di-
rected effort in any department of
business, especially when that success
is backed by merit, and tends to pro-
mote the general welfare. Competi-
ton in all branches OF business at this
time is great, and he who by energy,
integrity and perseverance takes the
lead is worthy of communication. In
this connection we allude to DR.. Tut,
of New York, who has achieved a
great victory over long established
competitors in the introduction of his
world renowned Liver Pills. In a
comparatively short time thew sur
passed pills that had been before the
public over a quarter of century.
TUFTS Liver Pills have gained a pop
ularity unparalleled. Endorsed by
the Medical Faculty in Europe and
America, they have become house
hold word on both continents.
DR.. Tut deserves, and doub less
has, the gratitude of thousands of in
valids who have been healed by his
medicine. In this age of Qnackery il
is refreshing to know that there is at
least one who furnishes a remedy pre-
pared on scientific principles, and
offers it to the sick cOnscietiOusly.
We record his success with a feeling
of pride which every American sh Guild
have at the triumph of one of his
cOuntrymen.

Something New.

The first number of what promises to be
the handsomest and most interesting illus
trated weekly journal in the United States
will soon be issued at Portland, Oregon
When we think that in all that populous
region between the Allegheny mountains
and the Missouri river there is not single
illustrated weekly it seems strange to hear
that such paper is to be published in what
we have been accustomed to consider "far
off" Oregon. But Oregon is far off no long
er, and in no respect is she behind her old
err sisters of the east indeed, it would seem
from this announcement that she is q step
in advance of most of them. We certainly
look for something of great interest when
the weekly West Shore, the name of the
new journal makes its appearance, for where
can be found subjects for graphic pictorial
art grander than the scenery of the Pacific
coast, or more full of interest than the var
ryiDg incidents and phases Of western life
The weekly will be profusely illustrated,
and, in addition to its large pictures, will
contain articles on topics of current interest
accompanied by engravings; also fiction,
poetry and humorous sketches. One de-
partment of the paper will render it of spe-
cial value to those seeking information of
that region, for several pages of each issue
will be devoted to review of new enter
prises and to the imparting of general in
formation of great value to those who have
an interest in the northwest and it progress.
The subscription price will be $500 year,
and single copies can be purchased at news
stands for ten cents each, or by sending the
amount to the publisher, L.. Samuel Port
land, Oregon. The West Shore does not
come to ell long felt want" but to do a
new work in a new field and to give new
pleasure to thousands Of people in every
portion of our broad and prosperous land.
Be sure to invest ten cents in a copy and
see something new.
