Milking Sheet Tin.

The only plant at which sheet tin IL
being manufactured in North OF South
America Is in operation at the United
States Iron and Tin Plate works ut
Demmler Station, Third ward. Me.
Keesport. The fact that this country
has for the last ten or twelve years
been paying nearly $50, 600. 900 annually
to foreign countries. and that not a
sheet Of tin was being made on this
continent. urged the firm, particularly
Mr.. Cronemeyer. one of the members
to make strenuous efforts toward secur
ing a protective tariff sufficiently high
to enable them to compete with the
labor of foreign manufacturing cities.
They have put in a much improved
process by Leyshon g. Sons. Of Upton
England. The gentleman and Of
his sons hare been in Mckeesport per.
sonally experimenting the introduction
Of the plant. which has been placed in
successful operation. The process here
tofore used consisted Of five operations,
two clippings in grease and three in tin.
b. the new process the same results are
obtained In one operation by inserting
a sheet in a solution Of tin and palm
oil. The cost Of manufacture is won.
derfully cheapened, and the quality Of
the product Is said to be excellent,
either for sheet or turn work.
The greater part Of the tin imported
to this country comes hom South
Wales, where the largest mills in the
world are located. There are mills in
France. Italy, Germany and Russia,
but they make scarcely more than d
used for home consumption. The i'm.
port In 1889 Is estimated at 1000, 900
bones, and It Is worth e5 a box. -Pitts'

Women rs EMPLOYEES.

4 business man Of the city giving
employment 10 both men and women.
upon being asked why he did not EN-
ploy more women than he did. said: Il
have employed women very often, and
| wish | could feel more encouraged.
But the truth IL that when a young
man ZONES to Inc and begins his work
he feels that il Is his life's business. A
wife, home and happiness are to be
earned. and he settles steadily and
earnestly TO his labor, determined to
master il. and with every Indictment
squirting him on. He cannot marry
until he knows his trade. II is exactly
the other way with the girl. She may
be as poor rs the boy, and wholly de
pendent upon herself for her living. but
she feels that she will probably be mar
ried by and by, and then she must give
up the work. So she goes on listlessly.
She has no ambition 10 excel; she does
not feel that her happiness depends on
il. She will marry, and then her hus-
bands wages will support her. She
may not say SO. but she thinks 50. and
IL spoils her work. columbus State

Some Good Points About Bait Fishing
That Every Angler should Know.
Twc disciples of Uncle lzaak stood on
the forward deck of n Barclay street
ferryboat, eying inquisitively each
others creels. One was ACQUIRED In
the most approved fashion and bore be
meath his fishing p~araphernalia unmis-
taxable signs of the well to do business
man. while the other was clad in the
garb of an Erie conductor and carried
besides his creel a light rod.
The bond of fellowship and mutual
admiration which exists between all
good fishermen soon brought the two
together. A comparison of the con
tents OF their creels followed, and the
railroader had a basketful of speckled
beauties, whereas all the business man
could produce were two four inch
babies.
Where did You get them asked
the latter eagerly.
The conductor named his stream and

s~aItpeter In the Soil.

Capt. Douglas Gallon, n of the
first living authorities on sanitary SUBJ
jects, lecturing before the Royal engi-
neers, says: The soil in many cities
and villages is loaded with nitre and
salt, the chemical results of animal and
vegetable refuse left to decay, from the
presence Of which the well water is i'm
pure. There are many factories of
saltpeter in India derived from this
source, and during the great French
wars, when England blockaded all the
seaports Of Europe, the first Napoleon
obtained saltpeter for g%unpowder from
the cesspits Of Paris" The almost uni
veral modes Of village life mean the
presence of large and increasing masses
of purifying matter in the soil, n condi.
ton which In India is the origin u
cholera or the terrible Delhi ulcer. and
In our own climate is responsible for at
