THE ART OF MENDlNG.

There is nothing more important in the
instruction of the children of the house
hold than systematic lessons in mending.
As soon as the little girl is able to handle
the needle she should be taught how to
darn her stockings and sew on shoe but
tons. As soon as she has mastered these
arts, she should be taught how to lay
patches; not in a haphazard fashion, but
neatly and fatty, matching the pattern
OF the goods and laying the patch the
proper way of the cloth. a patch, put
on properly and pressed after it is put
on, can hardly be recognized as patch.
The darning of cloth is an art by itself
which even expert seamstresses do not
always understand. The edges of the
rent should be brought together, and the
needle run through the cloth between the
conceal the stitches. When the darn is
dampened and pressed, it becomes almost
invisible, and can hardly be found after
the closest inspection. 1t will be a long
time before little girl can do such neat
work as this, but she should be encourage
ed in every way to try. Lessons in
mending should be given AS a stimulus
to economy as well as good needlework.
girl who has been properly brought
up, and is compelled to do her own mend
ing, will be more careful of her clothes
than one who is at no pains to mend
rents. For this reason even if it is con-
siderable more trouble to oversee the
mending than to do it yourself the child
should do it, not only for the sake of the
suffer for her carelessness.
An important part of all mending is
the ripping aud preparing the work for
mending. If the garment needs refining
it is often desirable to make it over en-
tirely. in which case it should be ripped
thoroughly. The thread should be
brushed off and the garment cleaned.
There are many ways of cleaning ma
terials that cannot be washed. Delicate
silk ribbons and other silk may be
sponged with little alcohol diluted
with water. Stains caused by acids
may usually be taken out by weak
solution of ammonia and water. Wool.
Ell goods, that are too much faded to be
made over, may often be dyed and com.
bined with a little new silk and give as
much wear as it did before. There is
always special satisfaction in making

its usefulness and in finding it able tC

than ii did when it was new. The
secret of the proverbially economical
and well-dressed French woman's sue
cess lies not only in her taste, but in hel
ingenuity in making over and repairing
her clothes. However old her dress, i
is mended so neatly that it never appears
shabby. The most careful and economi
cal women are usually the best dressed
because they know how to take care O
their clothes. while women who spent

mission for the valuable discoveries and
progress they had made in this one of our
most important economic industries.
To fish culture both the national and
state governments have given every en-
enlargement by liberal appropriations for
the establishment of hatcheries and in
vestigation of the life and habits of fish.
Private citizens have accepted the respon-
sible positions of commissioners of fisheries
without salary or any pecuniary reward
| for their services because of their great in
terest in the work.
| At no time has there been greater inter-
est manifested in this science than at pres
ent. AS an example will state that in
three of our most important educational
institutions there are at the present time
Matching troughs in which the eggs of salm-
on and of trout are being Matched, and the
development of the fish embryos is being
observed by the students.
Fish have been known to live a consider
able time out of water. They are not abso-
lutely comfortable out of their own ele-
ment, but they sometimes take it into their
heads to live on the land for a short time
The most famous land frequenting fish is
the climbing perch of India, which not
only walks out of the water, but climbs
trees by means of it's sharp spines. 1t has
peculiar breathing apparatus which en-
ables it to extract oxygen from the water
and store it up for use while on land.
A singular walking fish is the Periop-
thalmus of the tropical Pacific shores At
ebb tide he literally walks out of the water,
and, erect on two legs, promenades the
beach in search of stray crabs.

WOOL GROWERS PROTEST.

\ Mt Vernon, o., dispatch of the 9Th
inst. says The officers of the Wool
Growers National association met here
yesterday at the home of President Col
umbus Delano and prepared the follow
ing address to the wool growers of the
United States:
Our duty requires us to advise you OF
dangers to your industry that demand at
tention. First, Senator Hales amend
ment to the Mckinley bill if adopted will
admit wool free of duty from all the ma
lions of this hemisphere. Mr.. Cleve-
lands free wool recommendation was no
worse. South American woods would
supplant domestic woods and your indus
try would perish. The Republican plat
form would be violated, the principles
of protection surrendered and the pro-
duction of the wool necessary for cloth
ing in the United States would be trans
ferred to foreign nations.
Second-Amendmen threatened to be
proposed in the Senate when the bill is on
its passage, first, to strike out the clause
prohibiting sorting of woods, thus pre-
hitting the clothing portion of third-class
woods to be separated and imported at
third-cass duties.
Again, to strike out the words "lnclud-
ing charges" thus raising the dividing
line, and permitting, under the system of
fraud now practiced, the importation of
all third class woods at the lowest rate of
duty. These amendments were present
ed to the finance committee in violation
of the agreement of the oath of April.
when the restrictive clause and the words
''ncluding charges" were unanimously
assented to by manufacturers in consider
alton of our asserting to advalorem rates
for third class wool.
We obtained notice that such amend
ments would be offered on the day be-
fore the bill was reported to the Senate
and fastened to demonstrate in writing.
The amendments were not made but the
right was reserved, and a number of the
committee infer they would be presented
in the Senate. We have yielded all that
can be safely yielded in justice to our in
dustry to secure general protective legis'
lation. ANY of the amendments refer
red to are dangerous. The Hale amend
ment would work absolute ruin. Its
adoption violates the promise to give
wool "protection' and discredits the
faith and honor of the Republican party
Either of the other amendments will
perpetuate fraudulent practices in i'm.
portations of carpet woods whereby oul
producers of clothing wool have beer
robbed of the protection which the law
was supposed to afford.

The Liberal Drift of Religious Thought

The Liberal Drift OF Religious Thought.
The drift of modern thought, as any
one can discover in our current litera-
ture, in newspapers, magazines and re-
views, is not anti-religious, but the re-
verse. That the drift is anti-ecclesias-
teal and anti-dogmatic is equally GER
tain. The pulpit has almost abandoned
polemic utterances. Scores and hun
dreds of churches would not endure
them. They were once the fashion, and
public debates on the rites and doctrines
of opposing sects were in high favor.
We have outgrown all that. The change
is partly due to social and commercial
causes. The Calvinist has fallen in love
with the Methodist, and has not found
the heresy to be very pernicious The
Trinitarian has entered into partnership
with the Unitarian, and discovered the
latter to be the soul of honor
Impatience with dogma is not neces-
sarily the reputation of doctrine. The
truest reason may break with the logi-
cal refinements of the schools. The anti
dogmatic drift of our time does not i'm
press me as antagonizing intelligence in
religion, as hostile to analysis, defini-
ton and systematic arrangement, but
as intent upon calling halt upon spec
ulative audacity, and insisting that the
ology, like science and philosophy, shall
deal only with what can be accurately
known. 1t demands the rigid applica-
ton of the Baconian method, in which
facts are the groundwork of theory. 1t
demands simpler creed, but it wants a
creed, and it would repudiate any creed
which lacked the quality of comprehen-
sion. The time has come when it should
be freely recognized that modern crit
cism is at heart reverent and Christian
not fippant, atheistic and anti-Chris-
tan.
How serious, then. is the breach be-
tween modern culture and current Or
thodoxy. To me, at least, it seems to be
thin and vanishing line; and the hope
of coalescence in the near future ap-
pears to me well founded. 1t cannot be
otherwise. For reason seeks the truth,
and all truth is sacred, binding upon
human conduct; while Christianity is
the religion of holiness, and the gerini-
nant energy in holiness is ve1acity, a
truth seeking, truth loving, truth com
pelling temper.-Rev. DR.. Dehrends in
Forum

CAUSE OF SUMNER CON-
PLANTS.

The direct cause of pain and loOseness
of the bowels, is an irritation of the
mucous membrane of the same, sufficient
to produce excessive peristaltic or worm

by which means the matter in the bow

This excessive irritation causes more
than a natural peristaltic action, and the
partially digested food matter is kept
constantly passing along and evacuated
freely. This is called darrhea: where
the irritation is enough to cause bleeding,
we have dysentery. Indirect causes of
diarrhea, by which an irritation is started
are intestinal dyspepsia. overeatng, un-

NewsDapers of the Present,

No doubt the present tendency toward
trivialities and personalities will con-
tinue until private rights and public
morals are better protected by the laws,
and until the acme of size and profit in
newspapers has been reached. In the
race for expansion and power the leader
who has adopted the readiest means has
often imposed his methods upon men who
would choose the best means. The fault
of lower tone here and there is not
properly chargeable to the great body of
workers, for in the profession will be
found today high average of ability
and conscientious performance of duty;
and never before our time have news
papers been able to command the trained
intelligence and taste to enable them to
do all they are now doing for the develop
ment of art and literature. All that the
newspapers of today are doing for every
good cause, and notably at this moment
for that of good government. Capital
and financial success are Of course essen
tial for the production of great mod
ern newspaper; but the public has a
right to demand that those who bear the
highest responsibilities of the profession
should issue newspapers which they, as
private individuals, would be willing to
indorse i'll every part as men of charac-
ter, refinement and self respect. Gen
