Australian CannibaIs.
From Harper's Magazine.

Upon the whole, life among The North
ern Australians could hardly be desir-
able on any term, and on their own it
seems not acceptable. Their religion is
fear, their existence a series of escapes
from starvation and homicide, their
morality a mere tribal obligation to the
most elementary fealties, their polity an
ultimatum of the principle that might
makes right within the tribe as we'll as
without; a despotis1n of the strong hand
tempered by cunning. In the society
of these children of nature certain per-
sons skilled in devil-devil, as they call
the invocation of their supposed demon,
and certain old ladies accomplished in
cantering to their simple appetite for
human flesh, are the ruling influences
They are all cannibals, as opportunity
offers; and in default of enemies to eat
they will sometimes eat their friends:
they will even eat their children.
though this is exceptional Otherwise,
they live mostly upon poisonous roots,
which have to be carefully prepared;
upon worms and grubs; upon snakes
and lizards, and upon such birds and
beasts as they c.sn kill, though they are
not good hunters, and are poorly weap-
oned for the chase. They 90 naked.
and almost houseless; shelter of
boughs is their conce ption of a house.

An Electric Lantern.

Prof. Stickler, of Vienna, has invent
ed an electric lantern by which he can
project the magnifed imagies of objects
on a white screen in their natural col
ors, SO that, for instance, a small pimple
on a patient can be shown in its real APP
pearance to an audience of many hun
dred students. One of the experiments
will be demonstration of the palpita-
tons of the heart of a small animal.

Spring Care of Sheep.

Coleman's Rural World says that you
will soon be turning your sheep out for
the summer. But do not put them into
some back lot where the dogs will have
free range, nor in some hill pasture
where they can get no water. Either is
cruel With the dogs they are killed
outright, while without water they may
live, but in state of prolonged suffer
ing. In wet season they may do very
we'll; they have not only a better
chance to drink from puddles, but the
feed is more succulent and they have
not so much need for water. But the
drier the season the drier the feed, the
more need they have for water, and
the less chance they have to get it.
This suffering from thirst is often most
intense. The effect is to fever the sys-
ten, check the growth of the wool, rem
der the fiber weak and uneven, and of
course to keep the sheep in poor condi
ton, which is always unfayorable to
wool production And then consider
the inhumanity of such treatment No
one would inflict it if he realized its ex-
tent. BY no means put your sheep
where they will be deprived of water
If you cannot do any better, prepare a
trough and draw water to them once or
twice week at least.
The sheep will soon be in the hands of

While rosy clouds proclaimed the day.
The sea was calm, and DER its blue
My vessel sailed, as pure in hue
As the white doves that flew before;
Sea messengers from off the shore.
| watched the sea for many an hour,
From lonely beach and lofty tower,
Till in the distant, misty light
Ny ship sailed far beyond my sight,
And back the white doves flew in haste
From off the waters weary waste.
The hours have heightened into years,
And Joy has given place to tears.
Beyond the sight of longing eyes,
With all its wealth, beneath dark skies,
Ny ship went down. Never the sea
Can bring my treasure back to me.

Some Dairy Hints.

Prof. Whlcher, OF New Hampshire,
writes that the subject of feeding
skinned milk to COWS is just now re-
ceiving some attention from the press.
At first blush it appears something like
cannibalism. A COW drinking her own
milk or that of another appears about
the same. Somehow one feels a sort of
rebellion against it. But when we rea-
son upon the subject, it is difficult to see
where the objection comes in-prOvided
the milk is given sweet. 1t is whole
some beverage for other animals and for
man, and, mixed with other ingredi-
ents, it helps to make up valuable ra
ton. Ninety per cent. of it, or more, is
water that has been strained through
the cows system. Of the solids, large
portion is nitrOgenous, and, when
mixed with other foods containing fat
or starch, or both, becomes very digest
ible. Skinned milk, therefore, being
good for other animals and man, when
sweet-nutritious, wholesome and palat-
able-what is there in reason or science
against feeding it to mich COWS? Is it
not much like feeding their own honey
to bees? 1t would unquestiOnably add
to the flow of new milk.
Some dairymen, at least, ought to do
little more thinking and figuring.
Too many Of them are satisfied with
COW that makes $50 pounds of butter a
year, and they will pay good price for
such cow Now suppose a small
dairyman has a half dozen such COWS
They will give him 900 pounds of butter
annually. Let us make another suppo-
sition. Suppose he has only three cows.
each of which makes 800 pounds of but
ter He would get 900 pounds of butter
year, all the same, and save the care
and keeping of three COWS. He gets the
same return for half cost. Had he not
three COWS that the six cost?

POLICY OF THE CLEVELAND AD.
MENlSTRATION.

1t is well known that the most prOmi-
nent topic advocated in President Cleve-
lands first message to Congress. and in
the report of his secretary of the treas
ury. relates to the reduction of duties on
foreign imports. stopping the coinage of
silver, and the retiring of legal tender
notes. Secretary Manning devoted three
or four columns of his first report to Con-
gress to these questions. and his policy
in regard to tariff is outlined in the fol-
lowing statement from this report:
'Pm on tile free list as many articles as
possible Refxoc duties on el'ey.r d"fiabic ar
hcle to kke IOzvcsf POSSIBLE fOint.'i
That was the policy advocated by
President Cleveland and the members of
his cabinet. and it was early incorporated
into the Morrison tariff bill. and discuss
ed by Congress during the first years OF
Cleveland's administration. But the bill
was not passed. because. fortunately for
the people, we had a republican Senate
that was in favor of protecting American
industries. a similar bill was introduced
by Congressman Mills at the second ses-
sion, and the discussion continued; but
that bill also failed in consequence of a
republican Senate. But the agitation of
these measures destroyed confidence and
demoraliZed business in the mean time.
Had both Houses of Congress been for
tariff REFORM the whole country would
have been in bankruptcy long before this
time.
Duriag the ten years ending with the
close of the last republican administra-
ton. the balance between our exports
and imports was over S544. OOO. 600 in ia
vOr of this country. and in the last year
of that administration the balance was
Sl64. OOO. 900 in our favor. But during
the first year of Cleveland's administra-
ton. the balance went down to S44. OOO.-
600. a falling off of Sl20.O00.OOO in one
year. During the second year to s23.-
OOO. 900. and during the third year it went
down so that the balance was S.OOO,OOO
against this country. But since Harrison
was inaugurated. that balance has now
begun to work this way again. and we
shall be mistaken if there is not a large
amount to our credit found in our next
annual reports.-AmerIcan Economist.

Our free-trade friends will Immediately
call attention to the fact that the prices Of
cloth and iron have fallen nearly as much
in England as here. That is true, but the
frce-trade plan is that there should be no
competition from this or any other country
with England's production of manufac-
t,,red articles. There has been no outside
competition with Englis. railroads, and
possibly some one conversant with free
trade facts will point out tile amount of
reduction in freight rates in England dur
ing the time under consideration; in which
we have reduced our freight rates to one
third or One-qllarter of what they were in
1873.
What seems to be the latest addition TO
these advocates of the continued profits of
the British iron masters has assured the
country that low prices are dependent on in
vention rather than competition. But what
has been the matter with English inven-
ton: If they could not invent. we could,
and did. Our engineer and Railroad mama
gers have been prOfise in offers of advice
and better rolling stock. Writing on this
sub iect the Engineering and Mining foHr-
nal says: this was before the late change
in its contrOD ''If, therefore, the work
actually done Oh these roads (the Pennsyl-
vana and the Northwcstern) be taken rs
a measure of the relative value of the two
CLASSES of locomotives. it is evident that
the London and Northwestern Company
could make Il clear annual saving Of $780,
600 by giving away or dumping into the
sea its 2476 English engines and substitute
ing for them $50 American locomotives,
and working them as they are worked on
the Pennsylvania railroad.' And our
builders were perfectly ready to supply
them with both locomotives and cars.
Like a great many of the free-trade as
sertions. which sound well, the facts are
it; the greatest spur to invention and i'm
prOvements in manufacture being cOmpe-
tition. This is further shown by motto

Here the greatest Improvements have
been made in the manufacture of steel
rails and the increase in production and
decrease i'm price has in this case been the
most phenomenal. The cheapening of
railroad freights has probably had rather
more influence in increasing the make 0
