Gladly lowered by any such increase.
We see, therefore, that there is a differ
ence between the operation off protec-
tive duty on cne class OF these produce
ions and its operation on the other
class, q difference which is due merely
to different conditions. The object Of
protection is the same in both cases-to
prevent excessive imports, to limit for
eign competition. In u manufacturing
industry-say, for example, the tin
plate industry-what will be the result /?
Competition will soon begin in our own
country and reduce prices. With farm
products, however, the competition is
already there, too much of it, in fact,
and so the duty merely benefits the
farmer by way of preventing q further
fall in prices through excessive foreign
importations, such as of Sumatra to-
bacco o. Canadian barley. Thus the
object of 9 duty on farm products is not
to lower the price, but to prevent a iall.
by limiting foreign competition, the
danger OF which is yearly increasing
with the development of the agricul.
tural resources Of India. Russia and
South America.-EcoMomist

Spelling Matches.

If the interest in spelling words is at
a low ebb and c~arelessness is fast be-
coming a habit, a good plan to restore
enthusiasm is to have IAN occasional
spelling match. Every teacher will re-
call how spelling matches were con-
ducted..in the days when the spelling
book had an honored position in the
school-room. Appoint two leaders, one
each side, and let them choose sides.
Let all the children in the class be
selected and let them arrange them
selves on opposite sides OF the room.
The teacher gives out the words, having
previously selected them from preced-
ing lessons in spelling. Let every child
have two chances at a word and in Ease
of failure on the second trial, to sit
down. Spell down all and announce
another match, the words of which are
TO be chosen from those used in the
daily lessons. The teacher will find
that this old-fashioned method will do
much in reviving interests in spelling
and will go far towards correcting habits
of %inaccuracy in writing words.-Teach-

LINCOLN as a Young Man.

John f. Rail, who is living in
Springfield, ILL.,, was a great friend Of
Abraham Lincoln when in 1881 he
visited that State. He has given a
good description of Lincoln at that
time, as follows: Lincoln was then
a little past % years of age, and he
was the rawest, most primitive-look-
ing specimen of humanity l ever saw.
He was tall. bony, and as homely as
he has ever been pictured. He wore
a suit of blue jeans-if it could be
called a suit. 1t seemed that every
thing was too short for him. His
pantaloons lacked four or five inches
of reaching the ground, and when the
legs were not stuffed into his big raw
hide boots they were held down by
leather straps, which extended under
his boots. He wore an old round
about that might have served him in
his younger days, but was now far
too short for him, and when he
stopped over he showed four or five
inches of his suspenders-that is,
when he went so far as to have on a
pair of %"galluses." He wore a drab-
colored wool hat; pretty we'll worn,
small-crOwned and broad-brimmed.
l remember one occasion on which
this old hat vas brought into service
for the entertainment of the natives.
One day a slight-of-hand performer
made his appearance in the village.
AT the tavern a crowd, of course,
gathered around him and he enter
tanned us for some. He asked for
somebody's hat to fry some eggs in,
and Lincoln pulled off his old SLOUGH
hat and passed it up. The magician
put in some fresh eggs, made a pre-
tense of holding the hat over the fire,
and then handed back a hat full of
fried eggs. This amused Lincoln
greatly, and he seemed to pride him
self on having such a convenient
cooking utensil.

There is a place where the line must

A good many business men have
two. three or more different offices.
In each of these is transacted some
particular department of business.
Thus if a man is engaged in real es-
tate transactions and also in insur-
ance, he may so divide his time as to
spend a portion in n Office where
only real estate is looked after, and.
at another specified hour he may be
found in his insurance Office. Col.
Dan Lamont, ex-President Cleveland's
former private secretary, has three
offices, and while in the city can be
found at certain hours of the day at
his office up town as President of the
Broadway Railrpad and down town as
something else. There are well-known
lawyers also who have two offices and
handle a wholly different class of
business at each. Interested in big
corporations, a live business man often
necessarily has Office hours at the cor
poration offices of the respective CON
Germ. This not only enables him to
discharge his mind Of all other busi-
ness while attending to one, but it
enables those who have business with
him to transact it without %interfer-
ing with those who are bent on some
thing else.
Elemental strain thus put upon an
active business man soon sends him to
Florida OF some more permanent rest
ing place, 90 that it is doubtful II
anything is gained by doubling up in
this way. The matter is interesting,
however, as illustrating the peculiar
qualities Of brain power and training.

Dear TO l,r,tl.h Hearts.

II cannot think that $4,000 is at
all a high price to pay for Anne
Hathaway's cottage and its associa-
tions," says an English writer. "The
quaint old building of wood and plas-
ter, with the thatched roof, heavy
c~ross-barred timbers, the beetling
caves. with the four tiny easements
beneath, is Of course worth little
enough; but when one remembers
that it wa here that the STRIPPING of
,1S wOOed his wife and that the great
est English genius of all time found
rest and welcome in the homely par.
lor, with its wide hearth and cosy
%inglenook, and that therefore the
cottage at Shottery is unique in all
the world, the question of price is
swallowed up in the feeling of salts
faction that it has fallen into rever-
ent hands. 1t was in 1882 that Shak-
ispeare married the sweetheart eight
years older than himself, and four
years later when he came to Lonuon
to make a fight for fortune, and as it
was not until 1897 that he had pros
.pered sufficiently to buy New Place,
Anne Hathaway's cottage was in
'timately associated with our greatest
poet for at least sixteen years or so Of
his life. 1t is pleasant to think that
it has come into the hands of the
trustees of S~hakspeare's birthplace
instead of those of some professional
Snowman on this or the other side of
the Atlantic, who might have re-
erected it as a side show for a dime
museum, or turned it to account in
conjunction with a switchback rail-
way and military band, butchering
its unique associations to make a
cockney holiday"

wHERE IS the oWNEa2
a Philadelphia Tenant Who Has Paid N,
Rent for YNnrs.

AVg00
There is q man in business on Arch
Street, and in the lower portion of that
important thoroughfare, where business
properties are very valuable, says the
Philadelphia Record, who, while he
does not own the building he occupies,
and has no friendly relations with the
person who does own it, has paid no rent
Tor eighteen years and has never been
askedt to do so during that long interval
of time. For the eighteen years IN
question the business man has been
awaiting the appearance either of his
landlord or the lattcr's agent, and dur
ing that long period he has paid the
taxes on the building and kept it in
thorough repair. His. business has
been a most prosperous one and several
rivals have felt the sting of his ability
to sail much closer to the wind than
they do owing to his being relieved of
the usual yoke of rent day.
1t 10 not at all unlikely that the
property will become his by right OF
u%ndisputed possession at the expiration
of p years, and it is worth many thou
sands of dollars. Those who are con-
versant with the strange case have
come to the conclusion that the owner
has long since been dead and it is sup.
posed that he was lost at sea. It is Just

that has ever lived. Although all this

followers now number millions, and
men would sacrifice their lives for their
faith in Him. Christ had also to deal
with political questions. think His
reply to the Pharisees when they sought
to trap him was very adroit.
"They asked him if it was lawful to
give tribute unto Caesar. lie told them
to bring him a penny. Whose image
and superscription is this?' He said.
'Cmsar's,' they answered. Them said
He, render unto Caesar the things
which are Casar's, and unto God the
things that are God's.'
mo more diplomatic answer could
have been made" continued Ingalls,.
"Christ was really crucitied ON political
grounds. The Jews were afraid that he
would become their temporal king"

Hints ON Hanging Pictures.

In hanging pictures, says the WASH

membered that although oil paintings
look better hung in the usual way, With
a sloping in from the top to the wall at
the bottom; yet. etchings and water
colors often look better hung flat against
the wall. A picture with shadows
should, if possible, have the light side
nearest the windows. so that the sha-
dows will fall in pairs, and although
often two pictures similar in size and
subject may find convenient places on
corresponding parts of the wall, yet
quite as often the stiff effect of "pairs"
or companion pieces" takes away the
artistic value of both pieces. Paintings,
or any pictures should not be hung 90
high that it is uncomfortable to look at
them, but some pictures are of such
large design or brilliant color that they
look much better hung high up than
down lower. holdings are much bet
ter to hang pictures from than nails in
the wall, and are not very expensive to
