AND THE TARIFF DID IT.
Evening Telegram, February q. .


The high tariff f penny whistle fFeHa
which Robert P. Porter was tempor-
arily detached is addicted to printing
tariff lessons which are about as
trustworthy as Porter's census figures.
It cultivates the comparative method
by indicating results in parallel black
rules. Wherever any agricultural,
commercial or industrial growth OF
any sort can be shown, its magnitude
is exhibited in the aforesaid black
rules and is triumphantly attributed
to the blessed tariff. Has crop any
where improved, has there been a
larger export Of any product, has any
trade obtained better wages, have ad'
ditional miles of railroad been built
or thousands Of new houses erected
all these things are cheerfully assum-
ed to be benefits conferred by the
Tariff.
Well, the Telegram feels that it can
do something in this line itself.
For instance-New York City has
an area of forty-one square miles,
while Chicago covers 1856 square
miles. Their respective areas are
thus represented

The Spirit OF Criticism.

There are people who would find
plenty to critieise in heaven itself,
supposing they were to be allowed to
enter into the hereafter by its pearly
gates. They are much to be pitied.
It may be mark of superiority to be
always dissatisfied. Philosophers
even go so far as to tell US that this
feeling of discomfort with terrestrial
things is an uniailing accompaniment
of genius, and that the contented man
is of little more account as an in
telligent being than pig in its stye
munching acorns. This is all very
we'll in its way, but it must not be
accepted as dogma. 1t is an utter
ance on par with that of the colored
man who held up his hands in horror
at sight ola European, and declared
that white folk were sinfully ugly :

The Amenities.

was waiting at station on the
Second avenue 81" road the other day
when I noticed an umbrella mender
and travelling glazier. The first
hod lot of ubs and handles and old
umbrellas, and the second had q
dozen panes of glass in box on his
back. Seeing that they regarded
each other with coldness, I asked Of
the umbrella member
Don't you recognize the profession
when you meet ?"
"It's not the same line of business,
sir" he replied. Anybody can put
ty in a pane Of glass, but it takes an
artist to mend an umbrella"
While he walked to the other end
of the platform, SHE'D up alongside
of the glazier and remarked:
"Any hard-feelings between you
and the umbrella man ?"
"Oh, no, sir-no personal feeling.
It's simply that my professional pride
demands that he speak first. Hes
trade, you see, while I have aprofes-
sion"
Two hours later I met them in
company at Chatham square, and the
glazier recognized me at once and
took me aside to say:
cts all right, sir-all right. He
has assured me that he once failed in
business for $4,000, and we've
agreed that both have professions.
| and that both of us are professors.

How to Have Pretty Hands,

A lady should have beautifully
white hands and no mistake. If the
skin be naturally white very little
care Is required to preserve It. a
GOOD soap, aided by q pinch or two Of
cracked oatmeal, may be used for a
thorough cleansing twice q day, and
4 needful to still furthur cleanse
them warm water-not hot-will do
the necessary work. Once q week
they should be rubbed front and
back between the fingers, and all
with slice of lemon.
IF there exquisitelY white hands
are inclined to chap, camphor ice
NAV be applied at night and white
Gloves worn to increase the softening
Effect. The best camphor ice is q
home made preparation of pure white
way melted and stirred to the con-
sisteucy Of cream, with the addition
Of several drops Of spirits of camphor.
Holes should always be cut in the
naims of the gloves to allow ventila-
ton. For distressingly red hands,
equal parts of glycerine, lemon juice
and rose water may be applied night
" under gloves. Daily applications
Of lemon Juice are sure to produce q
whitening effect. Tight sleeves and
snugly fitting finger rings are q
frequent source of red hands, and the
only remedy for this is to remove the
irritating cause. Smooth white hands
NAV be difficult to acquire, but they
are certainly within the reach Of all
who care for them sufficiently to
make the effort required 10 secure
