These are in bare outline few
of the prospective advs ntages o.
free trade with the Ur ed States
This is what we are to get. What
are we asked to give?
We are asked to give practically
nothing at all-nothing that will
cost US anything. 1t is true some
wise acres talk of u vast loss oil
revenue which this Government
will suffer. This loss exists only
in the deluded imaginations OF
those who pirate about it. A mild
dose of political economy will
correct these, alterations of
an unhappily not harmless lu-
macy. It must be borne in mind
then that duties are a tax
on consumers, not producers, and
are paid by the buyers of goods
not the manufacturers. Our GUS
toms duties are a tax on the people
OF this country, not on foreigners.
If we remit this tax we are not a
dollar poorer thereby. Every dol
lar that the government loses, the
people gains. AS a matter of fact
customs dues are in most instances
a very bad form of taxation. They
fall In many instances more heav-
lily on the poor than on the rich.
Every tax on anything which a
poor man buys is q tax on the
poor, for the buyer pays the tax,
in the enhanced price of the arti-
Gle. 1t would probably be for the
interest then Of the laboring men
OF this country to abolish our
tariff, whether any foreign country
gave US any advantages therefore,
or not,

oeVen Gays OF the grandeSt
retailing we ever knew, 1--WE
say seven because Saturday
night counts as a day., in
lamps and goods for the holt
days, and yet not a weak spot
in all the long lines. In varie-
ty of styles, in completeness of
assortment, its as if we had
just unpacked the boxes and
had not waited on ever SO
many hundreds Of buyers !;
better than that, we've had
such proof Of what your choice
will almost surely be as to
make the gathering Of styles
doubly strong at those points.
Christmas isn't the time of
year when you expect extra
special bargains in goods suit
able for gifts. Very we'll, our
prices must be a surprise to
you
1t would be marvellous, in
deed, if an overlapping Of
lamp stock, such as we have,
were without spots Of excep-
tional price-interest. Wemean
that no lamp prices anywhere
shall be more favorable toyou.
AS a rule, the same quality
would cost you more in any
other store. But for all that,
there are lamps that for one
reason Or other-gOod bMyimg
Perha9s-get away out of
price-tune. You'll be interest
ed in them if you like things
that are exceptionally nice.
Next to lamps Cut Glass
has had the attention of the
buyers more than anything
else. This little fact shows
two things: We bought the
right quality. We bought
what yom wanted. In the
whole lot there is nothing
prettier than the one single
olive dish VIC have remaining.
1t was sold to a lady the other
day as a gift to a friend but it
proved a duplicate and we ex-
changed it for something else.
There is only one and it won't
remain with us long. Perhaps
while you are reading this
some one else who got up
earlier than you is on the way
to the store to buy it. If it is
sold when you arrive we will
try and convince you that
there are some other pieces
among the lot that are just as
rich in cutting as the olive dish.
It's hard to decide where there
are so many elegant things as
our glassware case contains.
Some physicians tell us that
he sewing machine is respon-
Sible for more diseases among
he gentle sex than anything
Else. 1t probably comes from
STOPPING over too much Or ex-
ercising the feet too much, or
something at all events, the
ewlng machine is the cause
If it. That is, the old style,
lot the new. We have the c
ind that you don't have to t
ouch your feet to. Not many, l

Free trade with the United
States will be boon to
the sugar industry, because it
will make it possible to refine
sugar in this country, and
thus give our planters the benefit
of the American duty on refined
sugar. It will remove the present
enormous duty on wool, and so
make sheep farming profitable, not
to one or two families merely, but
as general industry on a small as
we'll as large scale all over the
group. 1t will offer q market to
all our fruits, and make the in
definite expansion of present indus
tries and the creation Of entirely
new ones at once possibility, and
later an assured fact. 1t will
establish, in short, the one condI-
ton to successful production every
where, viz, free market for the
product.

Annie Bender, the eighteen-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Margaret Bender, OF
st. Clair street, did an act Wednesday
afternoon that was worthy of strong
and courageous man, and may thereby
have saved two lives.
Some time Wednesday afternoon
flames were noticed ON the roof of Claus
Steffens' house. Neighbors rushed hast
lily over to alarm box 248, but the de-
partment was hindered by the awful
roads from reaching the house prompt
ly.
In bed on the second floor of the
house, directly under the blazing roof,
lay Mrs. Steffens and her two-day-old
infant. Several women rushed up stairs
to carry Mrs Steffens and her baby out,
but physician, who had just arrived,
forbade it, He said the fire was not
spreading rapidly, and the fire depart
ment would probably reach the house
in moment. The minutes went rap
idly by and the engines did not come.
Then Miss Bender resolved to act.
She placed ladder against the caves,
seized an ak and climbed to the roof.
With a score of blows she chopped
away the shingles from around the
flames, which had then spread but q
few inches from the chimney. She
worked with all her might and main
and soon had all the iniiammable ma.
terial cut away.
While she was thus engaged two
other young women stood by Mrs. Stef-
fens' bedside, and determined to re-
main there until it became evident that
the house would burn, when they
would carry her down stairs.
Just as Miss Bender finished her
work hook and ladder company 6,
from the new fire station on Windsor
avenue, came, the wheels covered with
mud and the horses foaming and per
spring from their hard pull through
the horrible streets. A few minutes
work with the extinguishers put out the
fire with no very great loss,
Miss Bepder's brave act no doubt
prevented a serious destruction of prop
erty, if not, indeed, the loss of the two
helpless lives just beneath the roof

cthyst FROM Persia, and all manner OF
precious stones. A traveller says that
it seems to him Ike the shining of an
enchanted castle of FURNISHED silver
The walls are two hundred and forty
five feet high, and from the top of these
spring a dome thirty more feet high,
that dome containing the most wonder
full echo the world has ever known; so
that ever and anon travellers standing
below with flutes and drums and harps
are testing that echo, and the sounds
from below strike up and then come
down as it were the voices of angels
all around about the building. There
is around it garden of tamarind and
banyau and palm and all the floral
glories of the ransacked earth.
But that is only tomb o IA dead
empress, and it is tame compared with
the grandeurs which God has builded
for your living and immortal spirit.
Oh. home of the blessed Foundations
of gold Arches of victory Capstones
of praise And dome in which there
are echoing and re-echoing the halle
luiahs of the ages And around about
that mansion is a garden-the garden
of God-and all the springing fount-
aims are the bottled tears of the church
in the wilderness, and all the crimson
of the flowers is the deep hue that was
caught up from the carnage of earthly
,,t, 10 tho
prayer of all the saints, and the aroma
puts into utter forgetfulness the cassia,
and the spihenard, and the franklin
cense, and the world renowned spices
which the Queen Balkis, of Abyssinia,
flung at the feet of King Solomon.
When shall these eyes thy heaven built walls
And pearly gates behold,
Thy bulwarks, with salvation strong,
And streets of shining gold2
Through obduracy on our part, and
through the rejection of that Christ
who makes heaven possible, | wonder
if any of us will miss that spectacle9 l
fear! fearl The queen of the south
will rise up in judgment against this
generation and condemn it, because she
came from the utterInost parts of the
earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon,
and, behold, a greater than Solomon is
here May God grant that through
your own practical experience you may
find that religions ways are ways of
pleasantness, and that all her paths are
paths of peace-that it is perfume now
and perfume forever. And there was
an abundance of spices; neither was
there any such spice as the queen of
Sheba gave to King Solomon"

Achilles and the Tortoise.

A paradox which has been inherited
from the Greeks-that of Achilles and
the tortoiSe-is familiar.
Achilles (the swift footed allows the
tortoise a hundred yards start and
runs ten yards while the tortoise runs
one. Now, when Achilles has run a
hundred yards the tortoise has run ten
yards, and is therefore still that dis.
tance ahead. When Achilles has run
these ton yards the tortoise has ran one
yard When Achilles has run the one
yard the tortoise has run one-tenth OF
a yard. And when Achilles has run
the one-tenth Of a yard the tortoise has
run one-hundredth 1t is only neees-
sary to continue the same process OF
reasoning TO prove that Achilles can
never overtake the tortoise.
OF course it is a fact that Achilles
does overtake the tortoise, notwitb.

Mules versus Horses,

The chief reason why mule can nearly
always wear out a horse when it comes to
trial of endurance is that the former al
ways lies down to sleep. and the latter, in a
large number of cases, sleeps standing up.
The habit seems TO come to horses which
have been hurt, especially when in the
stable, and they cannot be broken of it.
Besides the absence of proper rest, and the
constant danger of heavy fall and .conse-
quent injury. this habit Of standing up to
go to sleep results in the giving way of the
front knees, and gives the animal prema-
turely aged and crippled condition.
A walk through any large stable at night
will show number of horses standing up.
but fast asleep, and whether these use
three or four legs TO stand upon, the knees
OF the fore legs are all baggy. With
mule of course it is quite different, for
Jack" lies down the moment he finds
work is really over, and a somnambulist
mule is seldom if ever met.-Interview in

The Worst He CouId SAY.

Some people are by nature so gentle and
30 kindly disposed that they seem unable
to speak severely about any one. "Uncle''
William Snow was man of this sort
HE never seems to see any harm in any
body, no matter what they do" said the
neighbors.
His life had not been an easy one. He
had been obliged to contend with ill health
and comparative poverty while looking out
for several shiftless and incapable rela-
tives.
One of these-a cousin several years older
than Wllliam-was crippled by fall and
became perfectly helpless. His temper had
never been of the best, and this accident
gave him what he regarded as a perfect
right to indulge his feelings at all times.
When, after months of patient nursing
and care, he began to recover the use of
his limbs to slight extent, his temper, in
stead of growing better, seemed to become
worse every day.
Passersby often heard his voice raised to
an angry pitch as he berated poor William
for some fancied neglect, but no one ever
heard a word of complaint from the gentle
mans lips.
At last neighbor, who had heard one
OF these dreadful TRADES, stopped William
on the street the next day, saying: "Now,
William Snow, what does possess you to
let Dan'l go on SOP l declare, you look all
beat out this morning, and no wonder.
Now own up, don't it seem to you he
grows crosser every day, the better he
gets?"
why, l presume Dan'l suffers more'n
we realize" said William Snow, with his
usual gentleness, though must say" he
added, apparently against his will, 81 have
thought sometimes lately that Dan'l was
increasing little in his disposition. ~

THIS MORNING.

On the old gray terrace where we had parted,
With VOWS and pledges and many sigh,
Where the sunlight slept xnd the swallows
darted,
1met her, my sweetheart Of days gone by.
Twas the ghost of curtesy, silken, stately,
That she dropped as she passed, and turned
from me
To the grand rnilord she has welded lately
The gouty, tyrannical, rich marquis.
But smiled to myself in cynic fashion
AS | watched the bloom on her proud cheek
fade,
And the stir of long forgotten passion
That futtered her bodice Of gold brocade.
Oh, the tickle worldl All the boughs are
budded,
There are focks Of sails on the glancing sea,
And my heart with an April joy is flooded,
Though Dolly is married, and not to mel

Wall streets boldest speculators, has
been placed in a private insane asylum.
He is not violently insane, but is suffering
from softening of the brain. His malady
is said to be hereditary. His mother one
day became suddenly violently insane,
and attempted to kill her five children.
She succeeded in throwing the three
youngest from a third-story window of
her house in Louisville, and the three
children struck an iron railing below and
were killed. She tried to kill Victor and
his brother, but the nurse had arrived in
time to throw mattress on the ground
below the window, SO that the two boys
were not killed by the fall. She was
placed in an asylum at Sommersville,
Mass, where she was maintained by her
husband for thirty-fve years,

Campbell addressed his friends in the par
lors of the Burnet house last evening.
The attendance was large and the gov
ernor was full Of fire. He said that a
coterie ofmalcontents in Hamilton county
would not and could not control the desti-
MES Of the Democratic party in the great
state of Ohio. Hamilton county was q
large county, but junta Of fifty men in
it would not be permitted to thwart the
purposes Of the Democrats in the rest of
the state. The Democratic convention he
said would have 900 delegates in it and if
Hamilton county sent eighty-two or any
other number of delegates in excess of its
official quota they would not be admitted.
He said he would be nominated and
elected.
Numerously signed protests were read
against the recent action of the Hamilton
county executive committee in ignoring
