In this way Mr.. Oehme figures
out that the tariff compels him to
pay each year $142.02 more for
goods which he requires than they
would cost were the tariff removed.
This he calls his I" indirect" tax
and by comparing it with the direct
tax which he pays his county, city,
and State he finds this to be the
case:
Tariff tax-iTsdirect -.-..... $142 o.

And thus Mr.. Oehme figures that
he is paying indirectly q tax which
is almost twice as large as his di.
rect tax, and this tax is fflehed from
him little by little in the shape ol
living expenses that make it hare
to make both ends meet. Were al
the farmers as smart as Mr.. Oehmt
there would be speedy end of the
protective system.

The Republicans of New Jersey
have caught on to Speaker Reeds
idea of turning Democrats out and

of New Jersey, which has a small

Democrats, has unseated Senator
Mcdonald, Democrat, and seated
Stuhr, Republican, although Nc
Donald received a majority of s, $40
votes over Stuhr. The Republi-

say he ought to have received them.

which bellies its name by being
about as rabid a Republican paper
rs there is on the globe, imagines
that it sees a glimmer of light for
the Republican party in the Farm
ers' Alliance movement in the
South. 1t says:
"The Farmers Alliance is doing
a good work by nominating candi-
dates for State ofieersand Congress
in various parts Of the South in OPP
position to the bourbons. Proba-
bly, the Alliance will not win any
of the important offices, but it will
start the forces of disintegration in
the Democratic party in that region
which will eventually bring few of
the States over to the Republicans"
The Republican papers in the
North have done all they could to
encourage the Farmers Alliance to
engaged in a separate political move
ment in the Southern States, and
have been much encouraged by the
partial success they have obtained
In Arkansas, and some other Sec
tions, where the Alliance has been
led astray by demagogues and ad-
venturers to aid the Republican
party by running Independent tick
cts. This, however, is not likely
to prove a serious danger to the
Democracy, if we understand the
temper of southern farmers Alright.
The South has found it's onlyfriend
in the Democratic party and the
success of the Democratic party is
its only hope. The men who CON-
pose the Alliance are Democrats
and they will see to it that it is not
perverted into a political machine
to aid demagogic office-seekers OF
to break down the Democratic
party.

Ciematis is a Greek name for a climbing
plant. 1t now stands for a genus Of the
family kanuncalu@, Of which they are in
the temperate zones about one hundred
species. AS some of the plants are very
snowy and popular, the botanical name is
usually adopted, and is much preferable
to the nicknames sometimes used.
The genus includes erect herbaceous
species from one to three feet high, and
NEST Of them are climbers, some being of
very rapid growth reach as far as thirty
or forty feet during a season. a teauti-
tiful aud varied collection may be formed
from u native species, including G COG
cinia from the southern states, with its
numerous scarlet seed vessels; G vertic-
ilarius with pale lavender flowers, three
inches across: c. virginiana which is seen
climbing everywhere in summer over
shrubs and trees, with its profusion of
white flowers. which is followed in au-
tufnu by large hairy heads of seeds. 1t is
one of the strongest ing varieties and
being perfectly hardy in the most southern
states, is worthy Of cultivation.
c Flamula is a European species, and
excellent climber, with white and very
fragrant flowers; G Montana is from the
Himalayas, is very distinct in its habits of
bloom, which it produces in great a5und-
anee at each joint of the stem. Their fra
GRANGE is very pleasing, they are large in
size and pure white; altogether it is one of
the most desirable Of all clematis.
Jackman has a rich crimson purple fov-
er, six inchvs IA ~uiame1or, bIoonfs-g from
June till frost.
Lady Caroline Neville is rather delicate
in habit with fine flowers seven inches
across, color delicate blush with a purple
band ia the center of each petal.
The comparatively recent introduction
from Japan and China and the efforts of
the hybridizers have brought into our no.
tice a set of most admirable plants. They
have flowers from pure white to the rich
est purple and from two to eight inches
across. With the great success with
which these beautiful climbers have been
grown they have become SO numerous as
to bring their prices within the reach of
all lovers Of flowers. We're a speciality in
hardy flowers undertaken surely these
sipgularly beautiful climbers would be
entitled to a consideration. Aside from
the choice hybrids. there are yet unchang-
ed species, which retain their natural habit
Of climbing high and far. These are adj
mirable for a veranda screen or cover for
unsighty ces.-Ameriean Rural Tome.

nov TO EGG.

Isn't it strange" said a short, foreign.
looking man the otherday to some compan-
ions while lunchiug together at n of the
restaurants, "that not one cook in fifty,
nor hou sekeeper either, knows how to boil
all egg? And yet most people think they
know this simple matter. Tn ey will tell
you to drop it in boiling water and let it
remain three minutes, and to be sure the

Persons who have never cultivated these
brilliant flowers in masses have little idea
how gay and handsome they are. Last
summer was my first experience in Guilt
waiting the dwarf varieties. / procured an
ounce Of seed and planted, perhaps, a few
over one-half Of them, indoors, very early
in the spring, in order to have the plants
large enough to put out as soon as the
ground would admit. l had a circular bed
made on the lawn, eighteen feet in eircum-
ference by six feet in diameter. A part of
the rich soil Was taken out and replaced
with poor sandy soil, as too much richness
induces too strong a growth Of vine and
foliage. They covered the ground and
overran tie bed to the depth of foot or
more. Their heigth was quite uniform.
about one foot, and from June first until
fIosts they were covered 18th flowers, ex-
eepting two or three weeks when we had
continuous rains. One could count hun
dreds of flowers on them at one time. In
color they were from cream to deep orange,
from pink to deep red; they were blotched,
speckled and self colored. They attracted
much attention from passersby; in fact.
they were so brilliant and gay that one
could not help but gaze and admire
them.-Eg.

THE FUTURE LIFE.

How shall / know thee In the sphere which
keeps
The d~isembodied spirits of the dead,
When all OF thee that time could wither sleeps
And perishes among the dust We tread?
For l shall feel the sting of ceaseless pain,
Hthere | meet thy gentle presence not;
Nor hear the voice 1 love, nor read again
In thy serenest eyes the tender thought.
VIII not thy own meek heart demand me
there?
That heart whose fondest throbs to me were
given?
My name on earth was ever In thy prayer
Shall 1t be banished from thy tonguein
Heaven?
In meadows famed by Heavens Hfe-breath,
ing wind,
In the resplendence of that glorious sphere,
AndIargermovements ofthe unfettered mind,
Wilt thou forget theloye that joined US here?
The love that lived through all the stormy
past,
And meekly with my harsher nature bore,
And deeper grew, and tender to the last,
Shall 1t expire with life, and be no more?
A happier lot than mine, and larger light,
Await thee there; for thou hast bowed thy
will
In cheerful homage to the rule of right,
And lowest all, and renderest good for i'll.
For me, the sordid cares In which 1 dwell
Shrink and commune the hoart, as heat the
scroll
And wrath hath left its scar-that ire of hell
Hath left It's frightful scar upon my soul.
Yet, though thou wearst the glory of the sky,
Wit thou not keep the same beloved name,
The same fair, thoughtful brow and gentle
eye,
Loyelier in Heavens sweet climate, yet the
sa1ne2
Shalt thou not teach me, In that caImer home,
The wisdom that | learned 90 Ill in this
The wisdom which Is love-till l become
Thy fit companion in that land of bliss.

Not long ago l heard q mother tell her
boys that intimate and constant acquaiut-
ance with BRUSHES went great way to-
ward making a gentleman,
The remark struck me, and asked how
many brushes one needed to be familiar
with.
Tell her, boys" said their mother, and
the merry fellows shouted:
lone to brush our hair we need,
Aud one to polish our boots,
one to clean our nails indeed
And one to dust cur suits.
And one 10 give our hats a switching,
To make Us al look very bewitch1nE,
And that's The song of the brush brigade. -
"Willie always visits everything they
have to remember into 3 jingle, and
then they don't forget it, - said their moth

yivacious procession TO practice Oh their
brushes. 'Tramps went OUT, but gentle
men came back said the clever little
mother when they came in, presenting
each of the brush-improyed four with an
apple turnover for his lurch-bex.
"Cleaniiness Is next to godliness, and dirt
is an abomination,n said grandmother
from her corner.

Mothers, don't scold. You can be firm
without seolding your children; you can
reprove them for their faults; you can pun
ish them when necessary, but don't get into
the habit of perpetually seolding them. 1t
does them no good. They soon become
so accustomed to fault finding and scold-
Jig that they pay no attention to it. Or.
which often happens, they grow hardened
and reckless in consequence of 1t. Many a
naturally good disposition is ruined by con-
slant scolding, and many a child is driven
to seek evil associates because there is no
peace at home. Mothers, with their
many cares and p~erplexities, often fall into
the habit unconseiously; but it is a sad
habit for them and their children. Watch
yourselves, and don't indulge in this IN
fortunate and often unintentional manner
of addressing your children. Watch even
the tones of your voice, and above all,
watch your hearts; fer we have divine
authority for say u that ''out of the alum
dance Of the heart the mouth speaketh. -

wHarIsA PRECIOUS ST0NE-wHAT
AGEM.

What is a precious stone? Mr.. George
Kunz in his valuable book on Gems and
Precious Stones of North America says in
reply to this query: Beauty of color,
hardness and rarity are the essential
qualities which entitle a mineral to be
called precious" Strictly speaking
the only precious stones are the diamond,
ruby, sapphire and emerald, though the
term is often extended to the opal, not
withstanding its lack of hardness. and to
the pearl, which is, strictly speaking, not
a mineral, but an animal product.
A gem, be continues, is popularity a
precious or semi-precious stone, especially
when cut or polished for ornamental pur-
poses. Originally the term desiginates a
class of minerals hard enough to scratch
quartz without metallic luster, but gener-
ally brilliant and beautiful. and includes
the semi-precious or fancy stones such as
the ehryso beryls, alexancrites, tourms-
lines, spinels and topaz. Arthaeologieally,
the term is restricted to engraved stones.
such as intaglies and canoes. The term
jewel is applied to a gem only after it has
been mounted.

WHY THE cows CAME LATE

Crimson sunset burning
Ger the tree-fringed hills;
Golden are the meadows,
Ruby flashed the riIIs,
Quiet In the farm house.
Home the farmer hies,
But his wife is waiting.
Shading anxious eyes,
While she fingers with her pail beside the
barnyard gate,
Wondering why her Jenny and the cows come
home so late.
Jenny, brown-eyed maiden,
Wandering down the lane;
That was e'er the daylight
Had begun to wane.
Deeper grew the shadows,
Circling swallows cheep,
Katydids are calling,
Mists DER meadows creep.
Still the mother shades her eyes beside the
barnyard gate,
And wonders where her Jenny and the cows
can be SO late.
Loying sounds are falling
Homeward now at last,
Speckle, Bess and Brindle
Through the gate have passed;
Jennies weetly blushing,
Jamie, grave and shy,
Takes the pals from mother,
Who stands silent by.
Not one word is spoken as that mother shuts
the gate,
But now she now why Jenny and the ows
came home so late.
