or unon details not provided in the
LIN or upon a misconception of its
~Drovisions or workings. A fair sample
IF the criticism INDUCED in is the
nublished attack of Representative
Dates, of Alabama, in which he proves
and displays nothing but his complete
ignorance of the bill and the laws of
this country, and shows a remarkable
amount of blind prejudice.
In conclusion, gentlemen, from the
considerations herein set forth it is
fair and conservative to say that the
passage of this bill would injure no
necessary or legitimate business in
terest in this country, and that it
would with great certainty place the
agricultural interests Of the whole
United States upon a safe, satisfactory
and prosperous basis. It would add
to the Importance of home transac,
tions and home industries in the rural
districts, thereby creasingt the growth
and prosperity Of the county towns,
and only call upon the large cities to
be content with a less rapid growth
until the development of the country
should provide a better foundation
for their permanent growth. 1t would
relieve productive effort from "the
power of money to Cypress" which is
today the most potent influence tend
ing toward the concentration of wealth
in the hands of a few, which in turn
is the greatest menace to the stability
of American institutions. Money,
stripped of its "power to Cypress, a."
would no longer be boarded away
from Legitimate productive effort that
it might secure the greater gains that
flow to such doubtful methods, but
would seek investment in productive
enterprises, and, as the freebooter
when he finds robbing no longer
practicable goes to work and becomes
a useful citizen, so money, when pro,
duction became its most profitable
channel, would join labor as its true
adjunct for the purpose Of blessing
mankind with all the happiness that
can by honest effort be secured from
the great storehouse that a benign
and wise providence has provided in
nature.

WHEN BEFORE THE CAMERA,

Look as you always do. The attempt
to put on an extraordinary expression for
the occasion has spoiled many a picture.
The instantaneous plate is a grand thing
in the hands of the operator of judgment;
he can snap the shutter when he sees the
natural expression, and before his sitter
has assumed an expression for the occa-
sion. This is desirable, and, to the per-
son Of good sense, is satisfactory.
Remember, the photograph is not to
make your looks; he is to copy your
looks. He will endeavor to execute it
to the best advantage; but it must be as
you are, and not as you would like to be.
Complaints by women of their pictures
being too old" are numerous. I only
remember where the complaint was
"too young"
cannot conclude these few words of
advice to women when sitting for their
portraits better than by saying briefly:
Dress simply and becomingly;
Act in your natural ma ner;
Be yourself.
Then, if the operator be a good one,
you will get a satisfactory picture.-A.

up the iron ladder" he shouted, and it
was made fast and rapidly hoisted to his
hands. Guiding it above his head, he
pushed it up the sloping cap, and a mo-
ment later the hooked ends fell over the
inner edge of the chimney with a click
which could be heard from the ground
below. Phillips quickly eli nbed over the
top of the outwardly inclined wooden
ladder, and clambered up the iron one.
On reaching the top he waved one hand,
and a villa cheer arose from the assembled
watchers. While he was raising the iron
ladder seven or eight devout old women
stood against the fence of the Mile-End
Mill adjoining, and prayed loudly for his
safety and that of his family, some Of
them telling their beads with nervous
fingers as they watched him.
AS soon as Phillips reached the top Mr..
Campbell Clark and James Cunningham,
the master mason, entered one Of the big
Hues and passed into the chimney. Look
ing up they saw Phillips head hanging
over the circular opening and shouted to
him. He answered in an ordinary tone,
and said that he could see down the shaft
for at least one hundred feet. The acous-
tic properties Of the shaft are so good
that conversation between Phillips and
those at the foot of the shaft could be
carried on in whispers. Phillips called
for planks, aud one after another was
sent up the shaft to him, until he had a
firm but open platform. Then he fastened
a tackle block to one of the stoutest planks
and passed the rope down through it. A
stout legless chair was suspended from
this tackle, and, taking several lanterns,
Mr.. Cunningham made the ascent with
aid of four stout men. He carefully in
| spected the brick-work of the interior,
and pronounce / it without flaw.
Nearly fifteen hundred men and girls
have been idle since March 31st, and they
are anxious to be earning money again
after this enforced idleness.

A MERCIFUL JUDGE.
Row a Good Little Widow Defended
the Man Who Had Abused Her.

There was once Il little woman, says
the Boston Courier, who, as other little
women had had before her, was so I'M
fortunate as to have a husband who drank
Ike a fish, and more he drank the more
heartily he b>at and abused her. She en-
dured it like an angel, and indeed it is to
be feared that part of the sin f lis mis-
doing was to be laid upon her head, so
temptingly patient was she, and so far
was she from treating him as he deserved
to be treated.
But in course Of time a kind fate inter
fered to save the little woman from the
further abusiugs OF the brute. He took
one drink too many, and broke his neck
in an ~ill-judged attempt to carry himself
and too many potlons of brandy on horse
back at the same time.
And when the man was dead the little
wife remembered no more his brutality,
nor the size Of the stick with which he
had been wont to beat her, grievous to be
borne although it had been. She mourned
and wept and lamented and told her
friends what a paragon he had been, IN
til n Of them could bear it no longer.
but famed out with cruel kindness, and
denounced the dead mar as the drunken
brute he had really been.
The widow looked up through her tears
with a word of reproach in her eyes.
He was a good man and a good hus,
band" she said, Indignantly. Then he
native instinct for truth asserted itself
She dropped her voice and lowered he
head. Though I can't say" size added
" that he was altogether adapted t.
liquor"
And that was the most severe thins
the good little widow was ever heard t.
say concerning the departed brute.

EDITORS ARE BORN, NOT MADE

Everybody knows how newspapers
should be edited, but it so happens that
the number who succeed in editing is
very small indeed. Robert Chambers,
one OF the most successful Of editors, who
for so many years conducted the re-
nowned jon nal which bears his name,
very justly remarked that the editor, like
the poet, must be born, not made. And
that the chief duty of an able editor is
not so much in putting things into his
paper as in keeping things out. There
lies the grand secret.
