Cotton Seed Oil in Commerce

Nearly every day we hear of some NAM
moth new development of the already
enormous resources of the Standard Oil
Company. 1t is carrying everything before
it. and summarily brushes out all competi-
ton by the sheer force and effect of its
mastery management.
Now If the cotton seed oil people could
only "get together" and consolidate under
the management of some aler6 and capable
director with anything like the sagacity
and enterprise of the Standard people, cot
ton seed oil would speedily take such hold
upon the public favor that no fear of hostil o
legislation need haunt its prospects nor
hinder its rapid growth in commercial
esteem. 1t has the merits to sustain it.
For many culinary purposes it is far supe-
rior to lard, aud even preferable to butter,
because it is pure and pleasant of flavor,
and can be much longer preserved in proper
condition than can either lard or butter
Being pure and sweet vegetable oil, it
is preferable to either lard or butter for
kitchen use, for the reason that it is more
| cleanly and economical, as well as healthy.
Both butter and lard soon spoil and become
rancid. But cotton seed oil remains sweet,
unless needlessly exposed to the air or ex-
tremo heat
What damaged the business prospects of
this new industry more than anything else
was the use of the oil as an adulterant for
lard. 1t is really superior to lard, tn 1ugh
much cheaper. And there are many people
in this country that are not of Jewish
extraction in the remotest degree who do
not like pork nor its products. To them
SO pure and rich and clearly an oil would
prove a most welcome substitute And
| there are enough Of these people to con-
sumo a vast quantity of it. No doubt
demand quite equal to the supply could be
found within a very short time if it were
made and placed upon the market solely
on its merits and undisguised.
What the producers need to do is to get
together and formulate some practical plan
for the economical manufacture of it and the
systematic handling of the product so as
to place it upon the market in the best man
ner, and upon the most advantageous terms
50 that consumers who may wish TO
try it may know where it is to lie had.
There is demand for just such an article
and it only needs to be properly placed be-
fore the public to meet with immediate de-
mand.
Here is great opportunity for some

Lunacy in England.

In England, 1t appears, the genus tramp
has not the same facilities for travelling by
the back door route, aud picking up a living
along the way, as he has iu this country.
Here he has made deadheadlng a science.
In England he makes lunacy a science. The
English tramp, when driven to the necessity
of choosing between the poor house
and starvation, makes COM
promise, if possible, by Stimulating a
mild form of lunacy, thereby becoming a
charge in an insane asylum. Thus the
statistics of lunacy have increased to an
alarming extent in England, and from the
figures it would appear that her majesty's
subjects are lapsing into the miserable and
helpless condition of insanity.
In 1880, according to United States Com
rnercial Agent Smyth, at Understood.
Eng, in the county of Lancashire alone,
there about $500 lunatics of all grades. In
1880 this number had increased to nearly
1900. The returns for England and Wales
for 1880 showed that over 81 900 lunatics
were under treatment or hopelessly affected,
while the report for 1890 informs us that
these figures have run up TO the verge Of
10000. OF these 5,434 are pauper tramps.
But aside from the tramp paupers, who are
lunatics in name only or as loag as they
are public charges, the increase in lunacy
in England has been great. According to
the figures one out of every forty in Eng
land is insane.

social climbers"

Two fair members Of the -Four Hundred, says
the New YORK Sun, were over card discussing
the merits Of one of their sisters in society the
other day to this effect:
Yes dear. she means very well !" said the
elder one, but she really doesn't know how.
After all. she is a climber. dom you know"
Yes, that is true, assented her companion.
Climber Is the latest addition to our vocab-
ulary. Thus far it has been used only in the
upper ranks OF swelldom. but with such intro
ductiol it will undoubtedly soon be common
property. Elbridge T. Gerry the ether day
gave Thu explanation Of its origin:
There are in society" he said. .'some newly
admitted members. who, with ths best inten-
tons imaginable. are never able to do things IN
just the proper style. They are persons OF
wealth. fairly good breeding, and possessed OF
reputation as hOspitable people. but they don't
even know how to entertain. With all the good
humored witticsm5 that the newspapers In
dulge in upon is subjsct, it is nevertheless
fact that the art Of entertaining requires deep
and careful study as well as natural aptitude.
Some of the greatest authors have stated this,
even way back to the early days OF Greece
Entertaining is q science pure and simple, as

IN everything, but no taste and no refinement.

Aside from Queen Victoria, the Boston
Herald thinks that mo other woman could
have cllled out the vast concourse in high
and low estate from every corner of the
kingdom who flocked to the funeral Of Mrs.
Catherine Booth, mother of the Salvation
Army" which leads the editor to assert
that ian organization, however humble,
that can produce such results deserves a de-
cent respect in every community" Both
conclusions are quite erroneous. Almost
any sort of hippodrome accompanied by
fifteen brass bands AMI other elements of
grote'que spectacular novelty in street show
would have had pretty much the same re-
suit. No feature of it, however, was of a
character to particularly commend it to
proper public esteem.

OF late the republican newspapers have
been clarifying themselves because they
had killed Off the lottery, administered
upon the estate Of Mormouism, defunct, and
finally fixed the tariff. They were particu-
larly proud of the latter performance be-
cause they thought it established regular
income for the party. But these things
will not stay fixed. Mormonism has bobbed
up serenely again, and the foxy lottery has
broke out the back way and is now quite
healthy and happy and fiourishing like a
green bay mule. Now to add tbs last straw
to their accommodating dismay, the tariff
threatens to fly up and hit somebody. All
these things have a strong tendency TO
impress Brother Wauamaker with the in
stability of human retail trade and induce
him to lay up his next $4,000 treasure in
heaven. For this wicked world bounces a
great man every day or two.

Sweet Alice, you are fairer far
Than most OF your companions are;
Your forms all grace you've tiny feet,
And pretty little hands en- suite;
Your radiant smile shows teeth like pearls
In short, you're Queen among the girls
On every side that's said.
And yet upon your dimpled hand
There shines no gemmed betrothal band!
I'm su 2, fair Alice, that you must

Incline your ear. I'll whisper why
That slender figure doth not bear
The ring that ends all girlhood's care,
And then my song is sung.
The reason is extremely clear,
You've not enough to say, my dear!

Newspaper guessing contests appear likely
to be ruled out under the lottery law. And
the queerest feature of the whole affair is
the fact that the very papers which clam
mored most vociferously for the suppression
of lotteries were the very ones that prac-
ticed that particular form of petty lottery
themselves. Now they are likely to howl
for "the liberty of the press" in self
extenuation. But the suppression Of that
nuisance would be positive relief to the
public. Yet it will cause some artificially
inflated calculations to drop with a thum D
