Honor TO Whom Honor Is Due.


Gen. Frank Hatton, in IN interview
with an eastern paper, claims for Presi-
dent Arthurs administration the nitia,
ton of the policy Of reciprocity, and res
fers to the fact that Hon. j. W. Foster
was sent to Spain aud Gen. Grant to
Mexico TO negotiate reciprocity treaties.
1t is historical fact that President Ar,
thur and bis Secretary of State adopted
this plan, at that time. But Gen. Hat
ton omits the further and antecedent
State under President Garfield had in
vited representatives from the South
and Central American States to a con
vention to be held in Washington, to
discuss the very policy that he has been
SO successful III arranging with Brazil,
San Domlngoand Spain. Then it was the
clamor of the Democratic press about
'tjingoism and the certainty OF war with
England and possibly other European
States, which frightened the business
men OF New Y DIRK and Boston 10 such a
degree as to cause President Arthur
after Gen. Gartield's death, and the re-
TRACY of Mr. Blaine from the State De-
partment, to recall the invitation to the
! South and Central American States and
| to abandon, for the time, the policy Mr.
Blaine had instituted Not until the
| fright occasioned by the denunciation
of his alleged jingoism by the enemies of
/ Mr.. Blaine had subsidized, and when the
! public mind had been entirely diverted
| from the subject, did President Arthur
! in a very quiet way, attempt to resume
the consideration of the question by dis
| patching Mr.. Foster to Spain and Gen
Grant to Mexico. There was no great
and earnest persistency in pressing the
idea of reciprocity, and nothing came
out Of the half-hearted efforts made.

introduced resolution in Congress,
looking TO reciprocity with the States
named. We think, further, it was
passed, but nothing tangible came out
of it. Not until Mr.. Blaine again be-
came Secretary of State, did the policy
resume shape and form, and has been
advanced to its present gratifying and
popular relations. Instead of meeting
with the clamor of "Jingoisln, y as was

alone, that is due the conception and pro
motion OF the policy. Others, now that the
benefits of it have become apparent, may
attempt to rob him of the credit of it,
! but the fair mined people Of the country
! recognize in him the author and proinos
ter of the entire policy. 1t is moi manly
/ or courageous, at this late date, to seek

Cuticura Remedies.

If the thousands of little babies who have been
cured OF agonlzing Itching, burning, bleeding
scaly, ana blotchy skin and scalp diseases could
write, What host of letters would be received
by the pfOprietors of the CUTICURA REMEDIES.
Few can appreciate the agony these little ones
suffer, and when these great remedies relieve in
a single application the most distressing ecze-
mas and Itching and burning skin diseases, and
point to speedy and permanent cure, it is pos
itlvely 1nhuman not TO use them without a mo-
ments delay.

Kindness from Woman Did What Po-
licemen's Clubs Had Failed to Do.
1t was in the fall of 1878 that the
small boys about Tompkins square, hav-
ing exhausted the ordinary methods of
street enjoyment, began to amuse them
selves by throwing stones through the
windows of the Wilson mission at 1876
st. Marks place, and by jeering at the
various people connected with it as they
passed in and out of the building.
These customs proving in time both
expensive and annoying to the ladies
and gentlemen connected with the mis-
sion, and complaints to the police de-
partment only resulting in temporary
cessation of hostilities whenever the
lynxeyed policeman on the beat ap.

Lost in Her Own Pockets.

1t is seldom that a woman loses any
thing in the pocket of her own dress, but
such thing actually happened to a very
clear headed and lnethodical young
woman whose residence is in Baltimore,
but whose comings and goings encom-
pass nearly every civilized quarter of the
globe. Some time ago Mrs. G. missed
her pocketbook, containing consider
able sum of money. A careful search
through her own cozy establishment
failed to disclose its whereabouts The
household servants were, all we'll known
and trustworthy, and there were no cir
cumstances that even suggested theft.
The loss was discovered soon after a
visit to this city, and advertisements
were sprinkled plentifully among the
newspapers.
The missing pocketbook persistently
continued to be missing in spite of all
efforts to discover it. After u while the
circumstance of its loss was forgotten.
A newly planned trip necessitated the
overhauling of the young woman's ward
robe, and by the merest accident the lost
article was found reposing in the pocket
of handsome travelling dress. "Why,
it seems to me that felt in that pocket

Information for Bald Men.

It has long been said that whosoever
shall invent a means to make the hair
grow on the heads of bald men will
make fortune beside which the mil
lions of all other patent medicine pro-
prietors will pale into littleness. Per-
haps barber has hit upon the plan for
solving the problem and making the
fortune.
He says that the recent successful ex-
periments in skin grating reveal SIM
pie manner in which any bald man may
get full head of hair. There need be
no pain during the process, because the
use of anesthetics will overcome the
hurt of the surgeons knife in removing
the bald scalp. All that the candidate
for new head of hair must endure will
be stay Of two or three weeks indoors
while the new scalp is growing in place.
AS to the question whether the new
scalps must come from dead men or live
men, the barber suggests that this will
be merely a question of expense, for
plenty of poor men will gladly sell their
scalps if they can find purchasers. New
