Very different ih appearance and habits
from the larger species is the goshawk, or,
rs he is ominously styled in northern New
England, the blue hen hawk" OF rather
slender build when full grown a hawk of
this sort measures from twenty to twenty
four inches in length 1t is blush slate
color above; below, white, Nyossed with
many zigzag slate colored lines. Though
more numerous in the mountains of the
far west and in the British possessions the
goshawk is not uncommon in our north
ernmost states in fall and winter, and oc-
casionally even builds its nest in that re
gion It loves the woods, and is oftener
met in the shade of the dense pine and
spruce woods than any other hawk For
strength and bravery this hawk is not sur
passed by any bird of prey.
1t feeds upon ducks, pigeons, hares,
grouse and poultry 1t is the type of q
true hunting falcon, flying rapidly few
feet above the ground, and descending
with Il swift rush On the luckless prey de
tected by its sharp eyes. 1t is daring to
rashness, and unlucky is the farmer whose
poultry yard becomes familiar ground to
one Of these hawks Almost before the
frightened fowls have had time to sound
the alarm it has selected and seized its
victim and is away.
Audubon once saw one of these falcons
rush upon flock of the birds called
gracklcs us they were crossing the Ohio
river. The birds i'll their fright collected
into a compact mass, the hawk dashed
among them and, Selling first one and
then another, killed five before the flock
could cscaDe to the woods on the further

Blaine and MoKinley'a Sugar.

Mr.. Blaine spoiled one Of McKin-
ley and Reeds beautiful jobs with
his reciprocity proposition for sugar.
Sugar is about the only article inn
ported in this country which gives
all of its revenue to the treasury
about $40, 100000 a year. The tariff
thinkers conceived that it would be a
popular thing to relieve consumers
Of this tax by putting raw sugar on
the free list, pay the home growers a
bounty and increase the tax on other
necessaries of life, to enrich the
home manufacturers.
The secret of this legislation, how
ever, is for the benefit Of the sugar
trust. The trust under the existing
law pays IA duty on raw sugar inn
ported, and must, after it is refined,
compete with foreign and other re-
fineries. The Mckinley bill puts
raw sugar on the free list and leaves
tllt Uuty sun VII tlIC lNilC titlN'N1
which gives the trust "A monopoly Of
the sugar trade, as no foreign refinery
can pay the duty and compete with
the trust, which will bring the raw
sugar to the country free to be refined
here.
Mr.. Blaine comes i'm with his re-
ciprocity, calling attention to this
outrage of placing foreign sugar on
the free list when the Spanish gov
ernments, which supply the largest
demand Of this country, have placed
pr0hibitory tariff on American
-four and other articles. Mr.. Blaine's
reciprocity means a demand on
Spain for open free markets for our
agricultural products in considera
ton for free sugar into this country,
and no free sugar until this arrange
mrnt is agreed to.

A visitor to the convention of working
wOmen in New York says that large pro-
pL;lion Of the audience wEre young girls
whose wealth and social position rendered
any work unnecessary to their support
Yet they did work actively and effectively
for the help of their less fortunate sisters
IN organizing and sustaining the guilds,
'cading rooms, gymnasiums, etc, which
give the friendless working girl in our
great cities the comfort and protection of
homes
the relation between the two classes of
girls was most cordial and hearty. The
stability dressed shop woman and seam
stress served on the same committees with
the daughters of wealthy men from Muir
ray Hill with the hope of helping their
sisters who are still poorer and more needy
than any of themselves For the time all
of the committee forgot that there was
any difference of fortune or education be-
tween them. They were only women work
ing shoulder to shoulder in noble cause
This little incident is noteworthy and
important. There is no town or village in
which such hearty Christian feeling, such
rational womanly action would not do
much toward bridging the widening gulf
between the poor and the rich.
Combinations of capitalists and comb
nations of wOrkingmen cannot bring utter
ruin upon each other if workingwomen
tln,i the daughters and wives of wealthy
men join to show how easy and effective is

Senator Plumb, Republican, dis
cussing the tin plate tax in the
Mckinney bill, made the point that
"nOt single consumer had asked for
an increase Of the tax" This WIS
an argument that the protectionists
could not answer. The significant
fact is that there is not single tin
plate mandatory in the United
States to be protected, and the eX-
PLANTATION given for the increase of
this tax, which must be paid by
every poor man who uses tin cup
or pan, fruit cans, cooking vessels,
tin roofing, or any article Of tin, is
that u manufacturing company OF
Pittsburg proposes to establish tin
plate factory on condition congress
will raise the duty on Tin plate high
enough to justify such IN enterprise.
The secret of this viIlanOuS job is
very we'll understood by Mr.. Plumb
and that is the cause of his strong
opposition. 1t is not thc~intcntion of
any one 10 establish Il tin plate
factory; it is the manufacturers Of
other goods that can be substituted
for tin, sheet iron, etc, out Of whom
the fat was fried for the campaign
funds, that are demanding the in
crease on tin. The object is TO raise
the tax high enough to prohibit the
importation of tin, and allow other
articles to take It's place, and by this
arrangement the duty on tin impor-
tations will be cut off from the treas
ury and go into the pockets Of man
ufaCturcrs of substitutes.

The Cause OF Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect of ones
own self. A light cold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass oil, and it is only
when a case of fulI-lledged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences of
that neglect are fully realized. AS a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting of blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages OF consumption, use Eilerts Ex-
tract of Tar and Wild Cherry, and for
sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Dys-
pepsia, Nervousness and all Bilious
Complaints, use Eilert's Daylight Liver
Pills. Both are guaranteed.
