Bad for waies--IGood for America.
If our Democratic friends will bear
with us We would like to make brief
comment on some news that comes
from over the water. 1t is announced
from that side Of the tin pldte;Question
that in Wales forty-three works will
shut down, throwing out Of employ.
ment 5000 men, owing to decreased de-
mand from America. Y Id
From, the Democratic, which is the
free trade, point Of view, it is quite sin
full to shut down these Welsh works
and throw out Of employment these
Welsh operatives, many of them wo-
men. There is, however, something
comforting in the thought that since
these things have come about they will
result in benefit to our own country
and our own countrymcn. We shall
consume no less tin plate than before,
but what We consume will bemade at
home, 1T
The equivalent of the product OF those
forty-three works and $4,000 operatives
will be made in this country. The
wages will go to our own people, and
they will consume American farm pro-
ducts. Thisit is to transfer from abroad
an industry which we have been sup
porting by our good American dollars.
Protectionists look on this as a great
gain; and if they have any regrets in
the premises tits because they cannot
induce their friends the free traders to
take the same view and be glad accord
ingly.

Inland Lax es.

It is not generally realized that there are in this country literally millions of lakes N hich are available for water-farming; in size all the way from mere ponds to the great in- land seas Of fresh water. In Illinois alone there are tens of thousands of lakes, and hundreds of thousands more can be readily created.
 There are in Illinois many extinct .kes, which can easily be trans formed into sheets of water by the simplest means. All the enormous sI.ake PlaiD,'' as it is known to geologists, comprising Wisconsin, Minnesota aud Michigan, north of he Ohio river, is dotted with count less sheets of water, condiiioas being favorable for creating many more by such inexpensive artifices as the dam ming of streams
 By damming at intervals, every creek and rivulet can be made to form artificial lakes. Even the vast arid region, the "Great Desert" of the West, is speckled all over with null titudes of extinct l.kes which can be filed once more and made to teem with life, as they once did.-Youth's Companion.

An Eye Snail.

Did you ever hear of an eye snail2 It is found on the coast of some of the South Pacific islands, product of the sea, and in appearance not unlike the half of dry English pea. The fiat is slightly concaved, and by close in spection the numerous small legs can be seen in readiness for business, close ly folded together.
 Now comes the most singular part of the story: Place the little animal un- der the lid of the eye, and he springs of, running all about and around the ball apparently in search of anything of foreign nature, which, should he find, he will seize, and come out of the eye evidently satisfied with having per formed his duty
 Stranger still, the thing remains life less in the pocket until immersed in a little vinegar, whereupon it begins jumping about, signifying its willing ness to work.
 Although the thing resembles the half of an English pea, there is nothing irritating about it in the eve. Whites are made acquainted with it's use by the natives. who frequently get grains of sand in their eyes while diving. Pittsburg Dispatch.

Railroad on the Top. of Trees.

California enjoys the distinction of having the only railroad that runs on the tops of trees. This peculiar piece of engineering is in Sonoma county, between Clipper Mills and Stuart Point, where the railroad crosses deep ravine, in the center of which are two huge redwood trees, side by side. These giants have been sawn off seventy five feet above the bed of the creek, and the timbers and ties are laid on these tall stumps. This natural tree bridge is considered to be equgl in safety to bridge built on the most scientific principles Chicago Tribune.

Very Few Garry rnemss,vs, Gore getty.

The prevailing style among women, Of dressing the neck low,n said an artist recently, emphasizes the fact my profession has long ac- cepted, that woman with head we'll supported by a graceful neck and and rising from even, sloping shoul- ders is not common. Look about in a company of young women, whose faces perhaps are delicate and pretty, often beautiful, and whose figures seem wien facing them rounded and elegant, and then get behind them and see how few show an attractive boise froE- that point. Even if she have good back and shoulder, which is almost rare to an exception, she carries her head so far forward of her chest as to develop an angle at the nspe of her neck where nature certainly never intended to put one. Most women, however, have promi- nent shoulder blades, one shoulder point rising higher than the other, or, worse still, trick of carrying the right side of the figure trife in advance of the left, which gives them from side or back view decidedly crooked appearance. This, too, in spite of the modern hue and cry about gymnastics aud physical cul- ture. It is going to take genera ton of careful training to do away with these bad habits, and when 1 see the young school girls going about the streets by dozens with heads still bent and shoulders rounded, I think it msy take several generations 10 accomplish much good. ."--Providence Journal
