Mrs. Flower an American.

The following from an interview with
Mrs. Governor Flower should be read
and emulated by every woman in the
United States:
! do not belong to the society Of shop
pers who think that the foreign trade
mark is the only stamp of excellence an
article can possess. l am an American
through and through. l have been in
number of famous trade marts in Eu-
rope and southern Asia, and l have yet
to find better, cheaper place to shop
than first class American store. There
is nothing l want can't buy in Broad
way. Last year we prepared daugh-
ter's trousseau, gave her just what
she wanted and bought everything in
Watertown. If the firm did not have
the particular article called for they
wired the manufacturer or importer for
samples, and through that courtesy we
not only saved time but money as well.
No; American goods are good enough for
one American family.

The Two Hands.

1t is remarkable that with the major
ity Of people the neglected left hand is
not in mere strength inferior to the
right. We have heard truly right hand
ed people actually declare that their left
hand is the stronger, and from the
writer's own experience he knows this
to be the case. This may be from the
mechanical advantage and better bal
ance of the body, the right side being
heavier, or it may be due to the large
muscles of the unused arm being less
hampered by the development of other
muscles. 1t is difficult in these cases to
say which is the fright" hand, for the
fact that the unused arm is the stronger
does not imply ambidexterity, nor can
we justly give the precedence to strength
over dexterity.
Moreover, we cannot call II, hand
that excels in one series of dexterous
motions the superior hand if it can be
shown that the other is chosen to
perform an act which, apparently tri-
fling, may require some knack or nicely
of touch. It is the hand put forth in
emergency, when taken by surprise,
that makes spontaneous gesture, the
hand that acts first, which is the Fright"
Spectator.

Short Tariff Sermons.

That system of tariff legislation which
levies duties on imports such as are ade-
quate to establish and maintain indus
tries, insuring high wages to laborers, is
called Protection.
The amount of Protection needed is
determined by the difference in the cost
of production at home and abroad.
For instance: If. because of high
wages here, it costs thirty dollars to pro-
duce ton of steel rails, and because Of
low wages it only costs twenty dollars
in England, then steel rails needs duty
of about ten dollars ton to keep our
mills open and to protect our own work.
men from the low wages abroad.
Again, if it costs seventy cents bushel
to raise barley here and only forty cents
bushel in Canada, then barley needs
Protection to the amount of thirty cents
bushel.
If duty is imposed on any article
less than the difference in the cost Of
production, it cannot be Protective.
Twenty cents per yard might be a Pro-
tective duty on grade of plush, while
eighteen cents per yard might not be
Protection at all.
A protective tariff system not only
means high duties on some things, me-
dunn duties on others and even low
duties on certain articles, but it means
no duty at all on such things as we can
not produce or manufacture in sufficient
quantities for our own use.
On, fao on1 nAffaa far sv,ofoxAA
levy no import duty, for we cannot
raise them in this country.
And raw sugar, too. we admit free Of
duty, for we have not yet developed the
industry sufficiently to supply our own
people. SO, instead of duty bounty
is given.
A protective tariff, therefore, besides
being a source of revenue, develops
and maintains our agriculture and in
Vulnerable manufacturing industries; it
enables us to pay our millions of work
men high wages, thereby insuring q
home market of several times greater
value than the whole worlds market
combined; it keeps hundreds of millions
of dollars in the country that would
otherwise be sent abroad to pay for
things we can raise and manufacture
ourselves; it incites invention; it enables
us to live better, eat better food and
wear better clothes than any other ma
ton; it enables us to keep our wives at
home instead of in the fields or in the
mills; it enables us to educate our chill
dren; in short, it makes us the most
prosperous, most contented and hap
piest people OH the face Of the earth.

One Way of Banking.

"You ought to come up into our part
OF the state" said tall countryman
over the bank counter the other day to
the cashier of Griswold street bank.
"Where's that?" inquired the cashier

wanted discounted, and took it to one
of them shavers, and after he had fig
gered about ten minutes he said owed

"How did he make that out?" inquired
the puzzled cashier.
"That's what l said to him, and he
told me that according to his way of
calculating the discount on a note like
that, the whole thing would amount to
$151.37, and he was willing to take the
note if I'd pay the balance in cash. You

Protection.

BLESSED is the man who daily tries
To better his condition,
And does his best to keep his trade
From foreign competition;
Be il in iron, brass or tin,
1t should not be neglected,
AS home industry is thing
Which ought TO be protected.
Can it be right to patronize
A nation that engages
To undersell another land
BY paying pauper wages?
And it will come to that at home
If there is no objection
Against it by the workingman
Assisting for Protection.
Protect your home and Preside,
Protect friendly neighbor,
But above all protect yourself,
Your country and its labor;
Or you will find when it's too late,
BY sad and sore reflection,
That you have made grand mistake.
BY giving up Protection.

what this man Harrison may attempt

to perpetuate himself and his party in

say the least, revolutionary proceed

choking of the people into submitting
to any proposition which the Repub-
