The Odor of Christians.

It appears on Chinese authority
that Christians can be Unidentified by
their smell. But skeptical travellers
are inclined to believe, after seeing
the filthy condition of Chinese towns
and villages, that it is by. the com
parative absence of odOr among civil
liked races that q Chinaman can spot
q Christian. BY the best accounts
Chinese towns are incredibly filthy.
there being no pretense of sewerage,
everything being thrown on the street
During one of the wars with China
Commissioner Yeh, who was viceroy
over mil, Is, was taken prisoner,
and in consideraii n of his high rank
he was kept on board the flagship.
While there he lived after the fashion
OF Peter the Great, when he occupied
Evelyn's house at Deptford, and his
society was so unbearable that q
formal complaint was made by the
crew to the Admiral. The latter ex-
planned to Yeh through the interpre.
ter that II he did not mend his ways
the sailors would have to swab him
down twice day like q bullock on
shipboard. Clearly the Commissioner
could easily have been nosed by q
fellow Chinaman as q non Chris tan.
A correspondent of the North China
Herald was told by his native teacher
that the odor of Christian was so
strong and go disagreeable that it
was with difficulty that he could re.
main in the house during his first in
terview, and that his friends smelt it
on his clothes when he went home,
and said to him: 'Ah, you have
been to the foreigners house.n There
was a saying six OF seven centuries
ago, the Odour of sanctity'" This re
ferred to certain hermits, anchorites
and others of mistaken Zeal, who
never washed themselves or changed
their clothes, and who could conse-
quently be smelt long way off. The
Chinese certainly would have allied
to recognize such people as Chris tisp.

when he visited his French relations

fancy arising from the then unpopu
lar belief that England was always
foggy and smoky. Probably there
was some very slight odor from spin

Free Wool ana the American Far.
mer


The sheep industry under the oper-
alton of the reduced tariff of 1883
shruuk from fifty.one million head ID
forty-two million head in five years.
Strange as 1t may appear from the
statements of tariff reformers and
free trade advocates that sheep rails
ing In the United States no longer
pays a reasonable profit, it is indeed
a matter of great importance to the
careful agriculturist, for during these
five years while the product of Amer
lean flock was annually decreasing
Canada and other coun tries imported
two million head of sheep into the
United States, paying duty of thir-
ty cents per head, thus taking from
the pocket of the American produ-
Ger g, 400. 900 for the carcass alone,
while there must be added the cost
of the wool. The average amount
per month paid for foreign wool by
the United States factories is about
81 200, 900. When these two items are
taken together it is one of the great
agricultural enterprises that might
inure largely to the American farm
or If the tariff was again increased on
wool instead OF it's being placed on
the free list as it Is now proposed by
the tariff reform or Democratic law
makers. The Mckinley bill, however
increased the tariff Oh sheep per head
from thirty cents to one dollar and
fifty cents. thereby stfording some
relief. If the United States should
act wisely and do In the matter of
sheep raising as it is capable of doing
raising it's own sheep and wool, then
there must be added to the American
fiocks sixty million Of sheep. This
item alone would go far towards re
lieving many farmers who are now
struggling against opposition, trying
to devise means for diversifying their
crops In order to make agriculture
profitable. Let the tariff on wool be
maintained or increased, and forever
decry the idea of a free list for all
wool.

More English Testimony.

An advertisement issued by Boiling
and Lowe, No. z, Laurence Poultney
Hill, London, England, under date of
December 18th, 1891, otherwise the
annual steel and iron report of the
company. says, among other things:
"The United States of Aemrics I'M
der the influence of the Mckinley
Tariff and increased home production,
can no longer he considered as import
ant buyers of steel and iron from this
country, with tine exception of tin
plates, and even this article is now
taken In reduced proportions. 1t was
formerly an acknowledged axiom
that bad harvest i'm Great Britain or
on the Con tinent, which involved the
pnrchSe of large supplies from the
United States. caused a great demand
from there for our manufactures
OF steel and iron. This rule
now, however, entirely ceased to hold
>od. The development of the min.
eral properties in the southern states
OF the Union has during the last few
years been so phenomenal that they
are now fully able to make up any
shortcomings which formerly rem.
dered it necessary for the United
States to order from this country"
Thus we have English testimony to
the protecting benefits of the McKin-
ley bill for the United States, and a
protection which extends to the
Southern states fully as much as to
the Northern.

The Ballet of Old.

The modern ballet was born in

1t is related that Bergonzio di Botts

of Milan, and Isabella of Aragon, al
which ballet was danced with my

pas de deux most appropriately per.

Catherine de Medici introduced the
ballet into France, where it was
danced at the court by members of
the royal family and attendants.
Louis XIV. made nearly the first of
his public appearance as king before
his loyal subjects in ballet, which
in those days consisted OF singing as
well as dancing.
In 1871, when "Fomone" was pro.
duced, the male dancers were re.
cruited among the dancing masters
and their scht OILS. The youngest and
plumpest of these, all wearing masks,

Republican Reciprocity Makes a

A st. Louis dispatch to the New
York Times says:
The effects OF the lowering of the
Cuban duties on -four are just begin
ming to be clearly felt in this city
Heretofore nearly all shipments have
been by way of Eastern seaports, and
much soft wheat flour has been sent
from other places. Lately, however,
there has been marked change
The opening of the Cuban ports has
caused an immense increase in the
traffic by the Gulf, and has been OF
great benefit 70 ST. Louis flour dealers
Not only has the trade of st. Louis
been increased, but much flour that
formerly was shipped direct to the
East now comes to st. Louis. The
competition of the Northwe stern
mills is not feared, as hard wheat
flour has Teen proved by experience
to be distinctly inferior to that pro-
duced in this city for use in tropical
countries. The former flour must be
used at once, as If stored it rapidly
deteriorates In quality.
The opening of the -four traffic with
Cuba and the Spanish West Indies
has also had most stimulating effect
upon the European trade by way OF
the gulf. Last week an en- tire cargo
was shipped to Ireland by way OF
New Orleans, five trains leaving this
city laden with -four. This is the
heaviest shipment on record to q gulf

Why Should America Import

II there g any country in the world

states is that country; but in the
year 1888. 62.4ll horses were import.

were exported, leaving us to purchase
that year the surplus, 5000. The old
tariff laid duty 20 per cent, ad val.
orem on valuation of S45 per head
equal to nearly $40, hence Canadian
and other horse raisers could afford
to pay 5000, 600 In the form of tariff
tax for the privilege of competing
with American breeders of horses.
In order to prevent this competition
in the future the Mckinley bill pro-
poses to have them pay $50 per head
Under the operation of the

Among other good things, he said:
