The PHILADELPHIA Tn0uirel

The Philadelphia Inquirer is enthu-
siastic in reference to American tin,
and says it is being manufactured in
that city by native labor, and native
metal and with native machinery.
The Inquirer says:
1t is hard for the party of free
trade to come down from its high
horse, but facts are facts, and any
doubling Thomas can see the process
of the manufacture of American tin
with his own eyes if he cares to do
so. If the Mckinley bill has done
nothing else it mas opened up a new
industry, which will develop the tin
mines of America, give employment
to thousands of American working
men and add immensely to the wealth
of the country. The thousands of
dollars that have gone into foreign
pOChSto III IuC paoI VIII NC hcpl dt
home. All this is not mere theory.
The work has already begun, not on
ly in Philadelphia but in half dozen
other places, notably at Apollo, Pa,
where the Pittshurg Electro Plating
Company is shipping tin plates by
the car load, from works with a ca
pacity of six tons day. Tin has
come to stay. Uuder the Mckinley
bill ii has been made possible to make
American tin, and as in the case OF
iron and steel, immense mills will fol-
low in the wake of the plants already
established.
Tin, tin, American tin That is
the cry that is going to echo over the
hills and through the valleys. A new
industry has been born in the Nc
Kinley bill.

An Easy Lyay of Sketching,

Here is an idea for those who are
artistic and original 1t is something
new and very pretty and consists Of
providing your own designs for EN-.
broidery, taking them directly from
nature This is how you can do it:
Flowers are preserved by dipping them
in melted paraffine. BY moistening
white paper with benzine it becomes
translucent, then you can easily sketch
impressions of the flowers. When the
paper dries it again is Opaque and the
impression sketched remains. = New
York Advertiser.

''DOn't."
From the Union Farmer:

FROM lue Union fatDlef.
Don't think that daily virtues are
unnoticed.
Don't hang to theories that hang
fire at every fact,
Don't try to settle the problems of
life when you have the blues.
Don't think any amount of wisdom
in the conduct Of life will prevent
your feeling Respondent at times.
Don't always be trying to explain.
The majority Of your mistakes are
never noticed unless you call atten-
ton to them in this way.
Don't immagine you are insulted
when people neglect you. The most
of them are so wrapped up in their
own affairs that they do not think Of
you at all.

Vermont's Prosperity.

Thirty million dollars for the farm
products of Vermont this fall is q
showing that might excite the atten-
ton of even a western state. This
has been the best year for the farmers
of the Green Mountain state since
the close of the war. The sugar,
dairy, sheep and grain crops have all
responded to improved methods, and
there is swing of prosperity in the
air that leaves no peace for the proph-
cts of New England's agricultural
decline. Journal.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.

Gen. Russell A. Alger. who was seen
st the Fifth Avenue hotel few minutes
previous 10 his leaving for his home in
Detroit. said very feelingly: 1T Will be
impossible for me TO write any
thing for you at this time for
the symposium 1 have just had
a great affection in the loss Of
my daughter, and can assure you when
you speak to me about my mother. it
IS very tender subject TO me. The last
time saw her was only twelve years
old. and she babe me good-by with the
words: God bless you. my boy; do
right always The greatest regret of
my life has ever been that 1 did not have
the opportunity TO make her as comfort
able as would have liked"
A young poet in New York. whose
devotion and loyalty to the memory Of
his mother is SO strong that he will not
permit anyone in his presence to speak
lightly of any woman, says his mothers
favorite expression was: Never under
any circumstances do anything mean. "
Mayor Grants mother died when he
was but sixteen months old.
Col. Robert G. Ingersoll was . little
tot of two years when his mother passed
away and Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott. pas
tor of Plymouth church, Brooklyn. has
been equally unfortunate in the loss of
his mother.
II all the pleasant facts in connection
with the compiling of this symposium
could be printed it would make an in
teresting story in itself.

This has been very disastrous season
for artists. The first day of the Academy,
which usually sells $4,000 worth of pic
lures, took in only $4,000. The little
Salmagundi exhibition where very beau
tiful work was shown at unusually low
prices by artists Of repute, sold only seven
exhibits out of 129 At least, that was
the number up to the time of my visit,
next day but the last, and no more sales
were expected.
The plain fact of the matter is that the
artists work has been overdone. And
just so soon rs a young artist gets a few
words Of praise from the newspapers he
expects $500 or 81, 900 for every picture
he does. That is a good deal of money,
and will buy large number Of very ex-
cellent beefsteaks and rubber coats.

Since his coming East Murat Halstead
has become . confirmed diner out.
should judge that he must make on an
average two after dinner speeches a week
in addition to attending silently upon at
least as many banquets A perpetual
round Of big public dinners is perhaps as
hard upon a man as any other experience
he can encounter and some of Mr.. Hal
stead's friends are wondering how long
his health, never very strong since his
attack at clubhouse q year or so ago
will bear the strain, added to the labor OF
writing an enormous amount Of matter
for his paper daily and considerable maya
zine work.
Mr.. Halstead Is in appearance the ideal
Field Marshal, and fills tho eye satisfac-
torily on public occasions. 1t was he
who, when Secretary Window lay dying
in a small side room at the last Board OF
Trade dinner, stood at the door answer
ing the inquiries of reporters and others
while the doctors labored over the pros
trated man, and a very dignified body
guard he made with his fine, erect figure
and gray imperial.
