A Strange Animal.

A useful South American animal is
the kinkajou, which, as the dictionary
will tell you, is a procyoniform quad
ruped with a protrusile tongue and a
prehensile tail. Under ordinary circum-
stances if you were to meet a kinkajou
in the street you would look for an Ital-
ian with a hand organ, though l should
be inclined to look for a policeman, be-
cause | know how unpleasant the ami
NAL can be, particularly in the fruit
season, for the kinkajou loves fruit and
eats all he can find. The chief reason
for asserting that the kinkajou is useful
is that in addition to his fondness for
fruit he has a great liking for insects for
lunch, and when tanned is a valuable
assistance in southern homes, where fly
paper is unknown and where a mosquito
net is more expensive than a silk dress.
1t has always seemed strange to me
that some enterprising person has not
imported a few thousand of these insect
eaters from South America for use in
North American summer hotels. They
could not cost more than 500 a dozen,
and many people would rather pay that
amount than spend the night with a
swarm of mosquitoes and ~unprOvided
with means Of defense against them

A COmDetent Teacher,

The London Times once contained an
advertisement for an assistant capable
of teaching the classics as far as Homer
and Virgil" Among the answers re-
ceived was this delightful specimen:
''Sir-With reference to the advertise
ment which was inserted IN The Times
newspaper a few days since respecting a
school assistant, l beg to state that l
should be happy to fill that situation;
but as most of my friends reside in Lon
don, and not knowing how far Homer
and Virgil is from town, l beg to state
that 1 should not like to engage to teach
the classics farther than Hammersmith
or Turnham Green, or at the very ut
most distance farther han Brentford.
Awaiting your reply, l am sir, ETC."

UNDERSTOOD POLITICAL ECONOMY.

F" lakes a Woman to Scheme" She
Said as She Heard Him Snore.
when Fitzboodle came home that
night he sunk into a chair and said:
Maria, have lost my job"
is 1t possible:' exclaimed the woman.
1t Is, Maria, and with only ten dol
lars IN cash things look pretty black"
Yes, said the woman vaguely.
lit Is the ten dollars | gave you this
morning, Maria; you know | told Won at
the time it was all l had in the world.
You are so good to me, Maria; you keep
my money SO we'll"

You know, as | passed the grocer's he
glared at me like mad. We owe him
thirteen dollars, and have promised to
settle eleven times now"
"Oh, that's all right" said the
frightening. why, when l was in
there at > o'clock he smiled and was so
pleasant sugar wouldn't melt in his
mouth. He told me to order a big bill
of goods at any time"
You are crazy, Maria! And then the
doctor. Why, l ran plump into him as
L turned the corner; he shot me a savage
lopk as much as to say, 'Humph, l think
1t IS about time you cashed up!' Maria,
| am a ruined man."
ooh, no., Charlie. Why, when l met
the doctor on the avenue at 3 o'clock he
bowed like a prince and came over and
shook my hand and said l never looked
more charming in my life. l am sure
we can stand ahim off another three
months"
"You are clean mad, Maria. And
then the landlord. How he snapped his
teeth as | passed him in the hall leading
to this flat only a few moments ago."
"Why, if you mean dear Mr.. TrOtter,
the owner of the property, why, my
dear fellow, he is as sweet and good as
you could wish. Why, this afternoon
he came in and said he would get us
new curtains, fix up the cellar, repaper
the halls and fix the plumbing in the
kitchen. We can hold him off half the
summer, 1 believe"
"YOu are clean crazy, woman! Inever

"I-I spent it,"

ooh, cheer up, Charlie. l took the
ten dollars and bought that lovely new
hat you promised me | wore it out on
the avenue all afternoon. Everybody
who saw Inc said: My stars! why, old

in the latest millinery, with gloves to

Charlie. | knew you had lost your
place, and | did it as an act of policy.
When l called on the t~radespeople they
all acted the same as the people on the
avenue: Now go to bed, dear, and never

litical economy"
"Never,"he said, falling into her arms.

Digging Greens.

1t Is time to pick greens, or, rather,
dig greens.a Travelling the rural roads
In Connecticut just now, especially In
the neigborhood of cities, one sees chill
dren and women on the green lots by
the roadside digging in the ground just
as fast as they an. Each n carries a
willow arm basket or tin pail, and a
short bladed case knife. The little
squads chatter and laugh and talk
gossip, and now and then one trills the
refrain of a popular song. They are
not skylarking or merrymaking; they
are digging greens-red and yellow
dock, dandelions, burdock and p~lantain
for home consumption.
Everybody wants greens now, and
trade in them is very lively. In a few
weeks the garden greens-cultivated
~dandelions or spinach-will be ready to
market, and then the popular demand
for wild greens will cease, Most of the
will greens gathered by Connecticut
women and children are dandelions and
dock, but some of the holder ones, MIN
BILE. footed maidens, put on rubber boots
and SLOUGH hats, penetrate into the tan
gled swamps, leaping from one quaking
tussock to another, and harvest a bushel
of wet and shining cowslips a day.
About decayed old stumps in forest
dales skoke thrives, and they pluck it in
handfuls.
At the beginning of the season dan
delion greens are worth forty or fifty
cents a peck in the market, and the re-
tail dealers sell them for fifty or sixty
cents; later ther price runs down to
twenty-five cents a peck.-Cor. New
York Sun.

The Highland Pipers.

The Highland pipers have always been
noted for bravery in action. AT Porto
Novo the Seventy-frst's piper played
with such good will that Sir Eyre Coote
called out, "Well done, my brave fell
low; you shall have a pair of silver pipes
for this" At Vimiero a piper unable to
walk coolly sat down and played, up
and wal them "a, Willie" for which the
Highland society afterward presented
him with a set of pipes.-Cornhill Maya

Halibut in Plenty.

The fishing schooner Surprise, Captain
James Bell commanding, which sailed
from Astoria in November for the pur-
pose of prospecting the coast of Alaska
and the Alexander archipelago in hopes
of finding banks where halibut could be
taken during the winter, returned to
Astoria Saturday. She cruised around
till April, visiting every point where
there was a prospect of finding halibut
and setting travis in many places with
out success until on the 9Th of April, af-
ter rounding Cape Chacon, on Prince
Edward island, the most southwesterly
point of Alaska, the first run Of halibut
was encountered.
The fish were so plentiful and easily
caught that Captain Bell, foreseeing his
supply of ice was to run short, hove
away to the northeast and headed up
Frederick's sound for the Lacont glacier,
which was reached after a two days
run, and on the 18th, with the hold full
of ice, sail was made, and the 18th found
the Surprise again off Cape Chacon.
standing off and on, with set lines and
travis out, and the sea fairly alive with
halibut. Some idea can be formed as to
how plentiful the fish were from the
fact that in two days Captain Bell, his
two sons and an Indian caught, cleaned
and packed in the ice ten and a half tons
Of halibut.-Portland Oregonian.

Tariff Reform Means Free
Trade.
ProtectiUe Taritf League.

Protective Tariff League.
Experience does not prove that the
demand for tariff reform" cannot be
appeased by any concession short of alb.
solute surrender of the protective prin.
cipal. 1t must be met and silenced by
overwhelming defeat whenever and
wherever opportunity offers. for as the
more candid among agitators freely adj
NIT, it tariff repeal toward which they
are pressing, and without which they
will decline to be satisfied.
Although the existing tariff aw
places more dollars worth of imports
on the free list than was proposed by
the much-lauded Mills bill-and while
there is nothing the average family
needs to buy that is not now cheaper
than under any former law-there is no
abatement in the demand for tariff ''re-
form" And none need be expected so
long rs the utmost demand of the Cob
den school of economists is not complied
with, i. e., free trade for every article
in the supply of which foreigners may
desire to compete. Proof of this can be
found in the fact that self-styled IRE
formers just as vigorously denounce
the Mckinley tariff, RELOCATING to the
free list one half of all imports, as they
opposed preceding legislation in which
the number of dutidble articles was
more than double that today. They
are no better pleased with the tariff of
81 per ton on steel rails than they were
with the ST. exacted by the former law
They have no word of commentator
for the reduction of twenty five per cent
to fifty per cent of the tariff on most
kinds of lumber, on nails, and long
list of metal wares. In short, they re-
fuse to be conforted so long as foreign
ers are required to pay anything what
ever for the privilege of competing in
the markets of this country. Their
silence as to the provision for recipro-
city in trade with friendly nations
seems properly traceable to the fact of
opposition because foreigners are there
by compelled TO concede some of their
selfish demands for commercial privi-
leges that cost them nothing.
Argument seems wasted on tho free
trade shouter. The only safe course is
to ignore his demand and continue to
shape our economic legislation with a
view to steady and profitable employ
ment of the labor and resources Of the
country. thereby insuring national
independence so far as nature, aided by
the energy and ingenuity of our people
render such independence possibility.
