Valuable Enmity.


The Sun this morning praises MI.
Cleveland as an excuse for making its
usual attack upon him. This par
tieular attack is even more favorable
to his interests than those which
have preceded it. The SUMS object is
to show that in his speech at Buffalo
Mr.. Cleveland abandoned the tariff
issue to take up hat OF Republican
extravaganza in the last Congress.
This is simply a part of the Suns
effort to show that the cause of which
MIR. Cleveland is the acknowledged
leader is no longer considered worth
~espousing even by him. He has torn
down the idol of tariff reduction and
has put up that of legislative economy
in its place.
But Mr.. Cleveland, according to the
Sun. announces himself as the dis
coverer Of the issue. Now the paper
which wrinkles for all, and other
luminaries of more steady beam. have
been for some months ciamoring
about the Infamous billion. Therefore

Etiquette at the table should be

appear awk ward and constrained up
on occasions when it is important to
be at ease. To be fully at ease at
such times is only acquired by the
habitual practice of good at

home training. 1t is only by the con-
slant practice of the rules of good be-

Consul Corte and the Malta.


Consul Corte OF New Orleans. be-
sides being a malignant, seems to be a
very foolish sort OF person. In the
course OF an arraignment of the peo-
pie of New Orleans for killing the
Malta villains he incidentally mem
tions that a plot was well advanced to
murder Mayor Shakespeare and mum
erous other persons and to blow up
the Pickwick Club. For prudential
reasons he dissuaded his fellow coun-
trymen, over whom he seems to rule
like a kind of brigand chief, to forego,
or at least to postpone the executionof
these designs. But the will to perpe-
trate the atrocities, according to his
testimony. most certainly existed, and
the Sicilian colony in New Orleans
felt that it had the organization and
strength necessary to undertake them.
1t is true it is somewhat hard to
feel sure of the truth of anything
Corte says. He has talked SO much
and so wildly since the lynching cpl
sode that his credibility is seriously
compromised. But at least his utter
ances are useful as showing what
the Sicilian code of morals is. Signor
Corte is assuredly a good witness as to
the sort Of deeds his countrymen are
capable OF. His statement appears
to us to establish the existence of the
Malta spirit, and, indeed, of the
Malta organization. 1t would ven
seem to indicate that Corte was an
influential member of that body. As
an official Of the italian government,
it is obvious he could have no infiu-
ence. At home in Italy the con-
spiracy shows absolute contempt for
the government and it's officials. 1t is
not easy to see why more respect
should be shown to its commission
here. The conclusion is therefore
forced upon us that Corte derives his
influence from some other source, and
it Is fair to ask II there is any way
but n in which he could possibly
acquire influence enough over these
half savage votaries OF murder 10 con
troll their councils, except one.
II peace is to be preserved, not only
between the Italian and United
States governments, but also between
the American and Italian residents of
New Orleans, it might be a good idea
for Premier Rudini to remove MI.
Corte promptly from a post in which
his activity is SO pernicious.

The Daily Bath.

@
Except when i'll, every infant should
be given a sponge bath or a full bath
once a day. The latter is far the most
beneficial. and may be commenced soon
after the first week and Everything
has come away" But feeble children
seldom bear it well; and If not, then
sponging must suffice for them. After
the first two or three weeks the tenn
perature of the bath may be gradually
lowered to 95 degrees. For several
months it should be kept at about that
point; then the temperature may be
gradually lowered. 1t should not,
however as a rule, GO much below IS
degrees until the child is three years
old.
The daily bath is for cleanliness and
for keeping the skin active and
healthy. Water Of the temperature
stated will meet all these require
ments. Exceptionally children show
a decided preference for colder baths
than advised; in which event they
may be gratified. unless there is some
good reason for denying them.
Some mothers insist upon bathing
their children in quite cold water,
thinking that by so doing they make
them stronger and less liable to suffer
from exposure; in other words, they
hope to harden or tougher" them.
1t is a hazardous plan, and should not
be undertaken without consultation
with the family physician, who must
consider the general health, constitu-
ton, ETC., before recommending such
a procedure.
Before going farther it is well to EN-
phasize the fact that in regulating the
temperature of the bath the hand test
is not TO be relied upon, and, there
fore, mothers should provide them
selves with thermometers. Cheap
