TILE VORLD,S EAR.

There is apparent disposition to deride
Chicago for its slow progress in making
preparations Tor the worlds fair, which it
was so eager to secure. The finger of scorn
is pointed at the lake metropolis, and sar-
castle illusions are made to the gaseous
character of its enterprise. 1t has been sug-
sested that but for the very shame Chicago
would be glad to dispose of the fair white
elephant to New York-incredibe asst may
seem, to Washington.
We have faith that Chicago will justify
the confidence placed in it by Congress and
make the worlds fair as great success as
is possible under the circumstances. We
believe the great central west and north.
west can be depended on to give it hearty
support, and will leave nothing undone that
promises to coatrihate to the success of the
fair.
The main idea of u worlds fair Is rep
resentation of the characteristic features of
all the civilized nations of the earth, col.
lection of specimens of the products, nat.
ural and industrial, of each, and illustra-
tions OF their comparative material and in,
telectual progress. The fair is at once
commercial mart and an exchange of ideas
A portion of its visitors are mere sight
seers who go to see the "slow" and the
crowd, but the real object of the fair is not
for the qualification of idle curiosity, and
the exhibitors do not send their exhibits for
that purpose.
Manufacturers and merchants send their
machinery, their products, their wares, to
display their excellencies, in the hope of ex-
tending their market. This is the first and
main object. Very few, if any, go to the
expense of transporting their goods to great
distances and caring for them during the
months of the ex hibition merely out of pride
in their work. They look for good financial
returns in new orders. The secondary ben
efit-sometimes the greatest-comes from
the opportunity to compare rival products,
note the defects of one and the excellencies
of another, and profit by both. The gain
is greatest to the people of the country in
which the exhibition is held if there is
large and varied foreign display, because the
opportunity for examination is available to
more of them than of strangers. The larger
and the more varied tile exhibits the greater
the instruction to our own artisans and
manufacturers.
Notice has been given to the world that
foreign trade is not desired. The policy of
the party in power is declared to be restric-
ton OF all trade to the home market. We
are to produce all we want and to sell what
we produce TO ourselves To bring this
about as quickly MS possible duties upon
imports are TO be increased to the point OF
present encouragement and eventual pro.
hibtion. Under this state of things, what
inducement is there for foreign producers
10 send their goods here Tor exhibition with
the hope of gaining customers. What OBJ
jet have foreigners in coming so far to see
what we produce when we do not want to
sell to thems This is the discouraging con-
dition that confronts Chicago as it begins
its preparation Tor the worlds fair.

But People Will Continually Tell You
About Them.
There az always unpleasant people in
this world, people who 90 not think just as
you do. 1t is like the good and bad men
the men we like are good men and the men
we do not like are bad men.
1t it unpleasant when you think you are
entertaining number of people by giving
them your opinion of a book to have some
up for "a critic. What's your claim? Lack
of 5rain?'
1t is unpleasant when you have put all
to have some man say: "A woman never
and silks"
1t is unpleasant when you do know just
how much money you spent and just how
much you started out with, and you try to
straighten an account and find you have
spent more money than you had, and there
is still IS cents in your purse, to have man
look at you and wonder audiby, SIS there
any woman in the world who knows the
multiplication table?"
1t is unpleasant when you like somebody
to have somebody else wonder what you
can see in them, or when you enjoy play
10 have somebody wonder that such tIifies
could amuse you, or when you like bit OF
candy to have them ask how sensible
woman can eat such, and then tell you
what it is made of. All these things are
very unpleasant. However, they do exist,
and the only thing that one can DO is to
smile and ignore them. That's the policy Of

USEFUL, ORNAMENTAL.
Eva NJ. Niles Describes Some
Fancy Work Easily Made.

For an invalid writing board is one Of
the best things made. 1t was invented by a
French lady, Nine. Tignet. The foundation
is light plain board, twenty-three and a
half by fifteen and half inches, covered
with dark blue felt In the center is the
blotting pad, held down at each corner with
triangular pieces of leather or cloth. The
various packets intended to hold paper, en-
velopes, stamps, cards, ETC., are fastened
with buttons. A straight band of cloth,
divided into compartments with small nails,
holds the paper-knife. penholder, pencil and
penknite. Next 10 the inkstand. held in
place by strap of leather or elastic, is a
movable calendar, and on the opposite side
is pen-wiper and block-note.
TO make a postal card case. take two
pieces of pasteboard little larger than
postal card. Cover with silk, satin, velvet,
or plush. No. ribbon should be sewed
around the three sides; the edges should be
overhanded to the front and back pieces.
This case will hold one dozen cards. The
be cut off to facilitate the cards being drawn
out. The words postal cards" may be en-
broidered or painted on the case.
1t can not be doubted that lamps have
gained a lasting hold upon popular favor;
certainly never were they seen Of more
present time. Accordingly, scarcely a day
passes that something new in the way of
shades is not discovered by the devotees
Of fancy work, and the prettiest among
many pretty designs lately seen Is
as follows: Obtain seven-eighths of
a yard of six-inch oriental lace,
three yards pale green satin ribbon, one
inch wide, twenty-five rings of smallest size,
about three-eigbths of an inch in diameter,
and coarse green silk Cut the ribbon in
lengths, six and four inches long, eleven of
each: cover the rings as already described,
and tie in doubled twenty-strands four
inches long. of the silk for tassels. Sew the
strips Of ribbons together in alternating
lengths, Overseaming them down from the
top where the ends are placed evenly. to dis
lance OF two and thrce-fourths inches. Turn
in the top edge to form very narrow hem or
draw-casing, and run in this either an elastic
or silk cord, by which the shades drawn up
to fit the top Of your globe. Fold the lower
edge OF each ribbon to form point attach
to this point one Of the ring tassels, full the
lace slightly and fasten it with invisible
stitches under the ribbons and just where the
scanning stopped.-Eva NJ. Niles in Chicago

~ Deign to bless us from above,
Jesus, fill our hearts with love
On this morn.
Where the tights of home are darkened,
Where the blessed hOme-lights shine;
In the churches and the prisons,
In the camp or in the mine:
Where the wlnding rivers wander
On their course through pleasant lands;
Where across the trackless deserts
Fly the red and burning sands,
Even there
Ascends this prayer:
Ave Rex We kneel to thee,
By thy blest humility
Virgin born!
Deign to bless us from above;
Jesus, fill our souls with love
On this morn.
Where the lonely tundras anguish
Dreary wastes of ice and moss;
Where upon the restless pillows
Ships in peril helpless toss;
Where the tropic isles OF ocean,
Yelled In mists and breathing balms,
Ciad In tender emerald yerdure
Wave their ferns and shining palms;
Where the polar lands are lying,
Under white eternal SHOWS:
Where the Arctic gales are sobbing
Requiems Ger the Icy foes;
Even there
Ascends this prayer:
Ave Rex. We kneel to thee,
BY thy blest humility;
Virgin borni
Deign to bless us from above:
Jesus, fill our souls with love
On this morn.
And with these, thy scattered children.
Lord, wherever they may be,
We with loving hearts adore thee
Our incarnate Deity.
Lol for pillar, nave and chanceI
We our spicy burdens bring,
Wreaths OF cedar, pine and holly,
Garlands for thy advent, King
Glorious anthems rise TO praise thee
Float to heaven from every shrine.
When was birth of earthly sovereign
Hailed with such joy as thine?
''Gcd with u.s." we tell thy story,
Sweetest earth has ever known;
For thou laidst aside thy glory
And thy crown 10 save thy own.

Indian question. In reply to Senator

Sioux were starving, Senator Paddock
insisted that neither the reports OF the

the ground showed that the Indians
were suffering from hunger. He stated
| that the reports of the chiefs and head
men, as presented to General Brooke.
did not indicate that the Indians were
starving, and asked, II it W ere true
that the cause of this trouble was in
sufficient rations, why the Indians in
presenting their grievances, would not
have presented that one firstP Sena-
tor voorhees, replied in great heat that
Senator Paddock had better send for
Governor Foster OF Ohio, tp which
Senator Paddock replied that Govern
or Foster had not seen the country of
the Sioux for two years, and did not
speak with the confidence OF Intimate
knowledge of the situation. AS to the
army witness to which Senator Voor-
hees alluded Senator Paddock said that
some OF them were a little too willing
as Witnesses; that he did not pick up Il
newspaper any morning or evening but
it contained one or two sensational in
terviews, and one from distinguished
military chieftain. 1t seemed to have
come to this that whenever one or
more OF these distinguished gentlemen,
charged with the responsibility of this
matter, stop over Mt any city, village.
