POLITICAL READING.
JuDoeITBY ITS FRUITS.

There is a notable abatement in tho
clamor about the mckinley prices. :"
The free trader has dIscerned that the
American people can be fooled with
that game but once. We are now be.
ginning to hear-but not from the
democratic presses and politicians =
about the Mckinley wages. The Iron
Age, a leading trade journal OF the
iron industry, reports that the pocket
cutlery manufacturers are experience.
ing great prosperity, and that as gen.
eral rule the pay OF their workmen
has advanced One manufacturer is
reported as saying:
1--WE have readjusted and advanced
wages in the pocket cutlery depart
ment Of our mandatory resulting in
an increasd of ten to fifteen per cent.
A similar course is being taken
throughout the pocket knife manufac'
tories OF the country, The course IL
just one-pocket knife workers have
had very hard time for six years
past, and many workmen have chang
ed to more remunerative employments.
Manufacturers have been making a
losing fight against the vast impor-
tations OF German goods stamped and
sold under American cover. But fol
recent tariff legislation this industry
would in few years have been com.
pletely destroyed IN this country.
The scattered workmen will now re.
turn and soon every plant in the
country will be alive again.
The business will probably have 9
safe and steady growth. Just now
every American pocket cutlery manu-.
facturer is busy on orders taken al
prices made before the Mckinley bill
passed. Delighted to be once again
busy, they are paying advanced prices
to workmen, and when taking new
orders will neither seek or secure ad.
vanced prices beyond the mark made
necessary by advanced wages and
cost of good goods"
The Mckinley tariff continues to
work out its vindications. Voters
who were fooled last autumn by the
bold falsehoods of the democratic or.
gans are gradually learning that the
much lied about new tariff is no radi-
cal and Drohibitory measure. but that
taking it altogether it is wise and
moderate in its provisions, and fair
and beneficial TO all concerned. -

Oiling The ventriIoquIst.

During a sea voyage ventriloquist
made friends with the engineer OF the
ship, and was allowed TO enter the en-
CINE room, says London It'd Bits. He
took seat in the corner and pulling
his hat down over his eyes appeared to
be lost in reverie. Presently GER
tain part of the machinery began to
squeak. The engineer oiled it, and
went about his usual duties. In the
course Of a few minutes the squeaking
was heard again, and the engineer
rushed, oil can in hand, to lubricate
the same spindle. Again he returned
to his post, but it was only few min
utes until the same old spindle was
squeaking louder than ever.
"Confound the thing!" he yelled.
ut is bewitched!n
More oil was administered, but the
engineer began to be suspicious as to
its cause. Soon the spindle began to
squeak again, and, slipping up behind
the ventriloquist the engineer squirted
half a pint Of oil down the joker's
back.
There" said he, ''that spindle
won't squeak any more"

The Burial Of the Dead.

There has been a gradual, but very
marked improvement in the funeral
customs OF the United States. There
was tme-Rnd 1t was not many
years ago-when the laying in the
grave Of friend was horror
There was a prolonged service at the
home of the dead, perhaps another at
the church with which lao was con-
nected, aud then procession OF for
midable length set out for the cepl-
etery, carrying a whimsical variety OF
people. There was the chronic fuuer-
al attendant-the one who takes de-
light in the mournful ceremDnies and
is certain to be present, even though
quite unacquaiuted with the family;
there is the person who goes because
he deems attendance a mark OF re-
spect for the dead, and is worrying
over neglected business and catching
cold at the same time; then there are
the real friends and the closely re-
lated kin OF the deceased, who endure
the ordeal of three or four hours OF
unnecessary observance and danger
Gus exposure at the very time when
sorrow and watching have made ex-
posture most dangerous.
Another matter. Americans are
very impulsive. They see 10 dse:h
only what is for the present
and the future In other
words, 1t blinds them to business con-
siderations, and the great funeral often
imposes burden upon them which
they are never able to meet Let
us go little farther in our reform.
Give US simple funerals, with the least
possible form. aud save the weak and
the old from the torture OF that awful
half hour at the side OF the grave.
Let strong men face this.

PROTECTION THE KEY TO sue.
CESS,

The Leader is now greatly troubled
because there has been no advance In
carpets since the passage of the Nc.
Kinley bill! Even the mugwump New
York Post has given up in despair Of
being able to prove that the tariff or
carpets is tax! The foreman of a
carpet room" in this city who could
demonstrate last winter that carpets
must greatly advance, goes in and out
OF the door OF a great establishment
which has large rug cOnspicuously
displayed in it's main show window
with this legend This rug at hall

the Mckinley bill that prominently
displayed rug daily makes. Republi'
cans walk past the store and almost
feel the satisfaction OF steL ping upon
the soft meshes OF the beautiful rug
that has been made possible for every
home in the land by the protective
legislation OF the Republican party,
The Leader complains that there was
two years supply of carpets in
stock when the tariff law passed, and
therefore there car be no advance.
That is just what THE REGISTER told
you last fall. The trouble with Dem.
Ocracy has always been that it camps
in the rear of Republicanism and never
catches up. Every carpet loom in the
United States is whirling and constant.

are the only safe regulators of pros.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the

way TO cure deafness ana that is by constitu

famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing. and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the inham.

to its normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases ont Of ten are
