STEPS have been taken in Spain to
increase the tariff duties on horses
mules, cattle, preserved and canned
meats, flour and cereals. With all
Europe engaged in devising methods
of retaliation upon the United States
for the passage of the Mckinley bill,
the outlook for an exclusive home
market in this country is all that
could be desired by the most jealous
advocate of the home market theory.
In the effort to furnish the protected
manufacturer an exclusive market
the farmer has been forgotten or
ignored, and the result is that for
eign markets which have heretofore
taken our agricultural products now
threaten to be closed against US by
prohibitive import duties.

SIX things are necessary to create
a hcme. Integrity. must be the arch
fleet and tidiness the upholster. 1t

with cheerfulness, and an honest
purpose must be the ventilator re-
newing the atmosphere and bringing
in salubrity day by day, while over
all, as protecting glory, nothing
will suffice except the blessing of
God. - Hamilton.

The man who saves something ev-
cry year is on the road to prosperity.
1t may not be possible to save much.
Ir not, save little. Do not think
that a dollar or a dime is too small a
thing to lay by. Everybody knows
how little expenditures get away
with large sums. But few seem to
know that the rule is one that works
both ways. If dime spent here
and dollar spent there soon makes
a large hole In a mans income; so
do dimes and dollars laid away soon
become a visible and respectable ac-
cumulatlon. In this country any
man can make himself independent
for life, according as he saves or
spends his small change.-Er.

BETWEEN those two blessings,
health and money, there is this diff
ference: Money is the most envied,
but the least enjoyed; health is the
most enjoyed, but the least envied ;
and this superiority of the latter is
still more envious when we reflect
that the poorest man would not part
with health for money, but the rich.
est would gladly part with all his
money for health.

CHEST SPRINGS, Pa. Nov. a, 1891.
Editor Cambria Freeman:
SIR:-While two supervisors were try
ing to open road a few days ago that had
been viewed in Clearfield township, two
young women, the owners ofthe land, came
ont and ordered them to cease operations.
But the supervisors. being brave fellows,
continued with their work. Then the
young women concluded to stop it by force,
and did it.
1t was but short time after that the
two supervisors We're seen hurrying to
Ebensburg with a defeated look on their
weil-pounded countenances to seek legal
advice. Once there a warrant was issued
for the two gallant home defenders and
placed in the hands of two officials of the
county seat.
Friday. morning the two officers. with a
two-horse rig, proceeded on their way as
far as Chest Springs where they were re-
inforced by strong and brave official of
that town. With a triumphant look they
wended their way to the home of the young
women where two of them hid behind an
outbuilding, and the third was sent out to
reconnOiter. The latter officer, finding the
door locked, called the assistance of the
other two, and combining their strength,
they bursted the door in. When inside,
one of the women recognized one of the
officers from the county seat, and said
You're the man that cries oh, yes Oh,
yes, You son of - This was the
signal fer a conflict. That evening the
officers were seeen. one with his arm in a
sling and the other two with bleeding and
magled forms, but without the two victor
ious home protectors. They are sadder
but wiser officials. Y.
