In Water and Yet Dry.

Into basin of water throw piece OF
money, ring, or any other object and
propose to take it out without wetting
your hands.
All that you have to do is to sprinkle
the surface Of the liquid with powder
that has no cohesion with the water, and
consequently that the water does not wet
Lycopodium powder, which may be found
in any drug store, has this property.
After having thrown Il little of this
powder on the water, plunge your hand
bravely to the bottom and take out the
ring, and show to the audience that your
hand is perfectly dry. The reason OF
this is that the lycopodium has formed a
perfect glove on your hand, thus prevent
ing any intact with the liquid, the same
as, for instance, ducks plunge their bod
les into the water and come out perfectly
dry on account OF the oil which is Sc.
creted in their feathers.

The Horse that Paid His Toll.

Many Of the older residents OF this
section remember the late DR.. John
Warner, of New Milford, and will APP
preciate this little story When DR..
Warner was a student at Yale he
used to come home Saturday nights
and return to New Haven Mondays.
That was before the days Of railways,
and as stage-coaches did not leave
New Milford Monday mornings for
New Haven young Warner used to
mount his fathers horse and ride to
Yale on horseback. There were sew
eral toll-gates on the route, and at
each Warner would pay the return
toll for his horse. Arriving at Yale
he would aflix to the bride a card
bearing these words: "Please not
stop this horse" The sagacious ami
NAL would jog along h0meward, in
variably reaching his stall at New
Milford all right. The toll-takers
got to know the horse and he was
never interrupted. Fridays the horse
would be started alone to New Haven
with a small pouch attached to his
saddle, in which was the exact
change for the tolls. Each toll-taker
would take his toll and the horse
would trot along, reaching Yale in
the evening. This practice was kept
up until the young doctor was gradu
ated. .-Danbury Comm News.

The Farmer and the Tariff.

Two considerations, If there were no
others, justify the protective tariff: One
is wages, and the other homo market
wages for American labor and consum-
ers for American farmers The rate OF
wages paid in this country cannot be
maintained without protective tariff,
and farmers cannot have consumers
which are valuable, with low wages and
uncertain and unremunerative employ
ment for labor. If we made our tariff
unmindful OF the wages of labor, made
it tariff purely for revenue and forced
the wages down to the level Of the kuro-
pean standard, we would diminish the
purchasing capacity of that great body
OF consumers, and the value of the farm
and its products would diminish in equal
If not greater proportion than the wages

Free Trade Discrimination.

While the free-traders claim that they
are opposed to trade restrictions and
determinations, they nevertheless pro-
pose to be unjust and unfair with their
own countrymen by according foreigners
advantages not conceded to the people
OF the United States.
Every American citizen is liable to be
seized at any moment by the Govern
ment, torn away from his family and
friends. and compelled To do military
duty either In the defense OF this toun-
try or in prosecuting war abroad. III

quire the able bodied American cannot
escape this burden. The property of

any time by the Goyernment for military
purposes or To be condemned nd appro-
prated for public use Again the Amer
ican is compelled to pay taxes to support
all the various departments OF govern

highways or to pay some one else TO do
IL for him Besides these legal require
ments there are innumerable calls upon
him for charity, benevolence and other
services for the benefit OF the commu-

A Wicked Parrot.

Every man who has parrot is al
ways telling what wonderful bird is
his. A lawyer in New York owns
one Of these talking devils" A
friend went home with him to dinner
recently, and when the two men were
approaching the house the lawyer
said:
my parrot can recognize my foot
step as soon as it falls in the hall.
When / open my door he always cries
out from back room, Halo, Will;
come in here Now" added the
lawyer, rs he slipped his key into the
latch, "just listen"
They listened, and this is what
they heard: Halo, VIII, you old
bald-headed fool; come in here. F"
The lawyer, for one minute, looked as
if the house had fallen oh him. And
it was all the fault Of one of his
brothers, who had heard the lawyer
boast SO often Of his parrot that he
taught the bird to insert the bald
headed" part. Now he can't be
broken of the habit.-New York

Reciprocity Is Not Free Trade.

Indiana's mossback Congressional OBJ
jector, Hon. w. s. Holman. says that he
cannot distinguish the difference be-
tween reciprocity and free trade. or
course not lie is only paid to see one
side of the question! The Republican
policy is reciprocity and fair trade in
non-competing products To secure
trade with the United States foreign
countries are now to be compelled to
buy the products of the labor and farms
of this Nation to an equal extent OF the
goods they sell in this market. at must
be q fair trade or no swap" Cuba has
been selling nearly 90 per cent. OF her
surplus sugars, tobaccos and other prod
ucts in the United States and buying
the greater portion OF her manufactured
goods in free trade countries. BY this
unfair method OF dealing with her
principal customer Cuba has been abe
to maintain a balance In her favor OF
$50, 900. 0O0 for several years past Now
that the blessed Mckinley protective
tariff law has compelled that little
island to trade fairly with the United
States she has arranged her customs
duties so that they do not discriminate
against the products of this Nation and
will exchange non-competing products
on a reciprocal basis. Reciprocity has
come to stay, and even the Hoosier OBJ
jector will be claiming that it is Demo
crate doctrine before this century
closes.

protest
The Republican doctrine OF practical
protection provides that II the foreigner
who comes here has something that we
need and cannot produce at home he
may bring il in fre, OF charge, which
is certainly very liberal; but it provides
further that II the goods he brings are
something we grow or make In this
country, and his purpose is thus to come
in competition with the mon who do so
much and OF whom so much is required
in this country. then before he can ass
the custom house he must pay into the
National treasury sum OF money which
will place him as near as practicable
upon an even footing with Americans
handling similar products.
