The Blackboard Drivers Mistake.

A Bar Harhor uckboard-driYer is
sore on account of a mistake he made
last summer, says the Lewiston Journal.
He had taken passenger, young
woman, from near the clubhouse to
"ChatWold'' and had told her the price
of the trip would be s1.50. On the
way he tried to make out whether she
was tourist or a servant, as, accord
ing ing to an exchange, his big heart
would not allow him to charge work
ing girl such a price for so short q
ride. On reaching their destination
the newcomer was met at the door by
one OF the maids, aud he decided she
was servant, and SO gave back the
half-dollar when she paid him. Later
ne learned that the young woman was

Wonen's Work.

The San Francisco Call suggests a
society for tightening the burdens of
women who have houses to keep in
order, and says:
Does the shoemaker try to Tighten
the woman's work by sewing the but
tons on honestly or tipping the foot
wear with honest leatherP Does the
tailor who makes the pants with his
boosted benevolence of double knees
ever put them on the right place OF
large enough? Does the carpenter ever
put the nails and hooks where medi.
um-sized woman, let alone child, can
reach them?
Is there ever but the fewest possible
shelves that woman can reach with
out standing on a chair at the risk OF
breaking her back?
1t is very little thing to have no
waterback to a stoYe-so man thinks,
but to a wife-of-au-work it is-Well,
there is no word strong enough to ex-
press the trouble it causes. a sink. or
a level, with cold water, is not an easy
thing to keep clean. Why not make a
little decline? Also bring the zinc over
the edges somewhat. The continual
settling of grease in the fine cracks on
interstiees is very trying to delicate
stomached woman.
The bureau-draWers that never open
or shut without trial of temper, why
cannot they be made to run smoothly?
1t should be declared a punishable
offense to make window that can not
be brought in to clean.
Men invented all these awkward and
inconyenient things, and men made
them, and they are responsible for the
broken-doWn, haggard-looking wome n
we see on the streets, or rather in the
houses.

A great American merchant marine,
carrying the surplus products Of the
country to the dearest markets Of the
world would afford real protection to
American industries. But the country
is debaned this wholesome, benelicent
protection by mischievOus, hurtful and
vicious tariff laws. The Milwaukee
Journal thus briefly tells with what
thoroughness the policy Of sham pro-
lection has driven the stars and stripes
from the high seas:
=" In 1860 this country had fleets that
riyaled the British, and did as large
a carrying trade. They have now
passed out of existence, or are rep
resented .by a few codders, mackerel
smacks and clam boats. Having no
commerce Of our own, what need have
we Of great navy? The flag that a
generation ago was known every where
Is unknown today except as a home
symbol. We call it sold glory" but it is
no longer glory on the seas. Verify,
chow have the mighty fallen" a
nation Of G5,000,OOO, and no ocean
shipping. An ocean-bound republic
accessible to every sea, and no use for
ports except as foreigners make use Of
them. Such is the fruit Of that pro
lection to home industry we read 50
much about AS to us all seas and
oceans are wastes. Three-qnarters of
the globe are cut off from American
trade. The country is consuming itself
for no higher purpose than to promote
private monopoly
The people should elect a congress
this fall that will reverse the blind
and stupid policy which blocks the
way to increased PROSPERITY.
