Ever since the world began mothers
have been rocking cradles and singing
lullabies. From time immemorial the
problems have existed. What can we
do with this baby? Where can we put
it so that it will be safe? How can we
manage to secure few intervals Of
peace and tranquility? How can we still
its cries and whines2 How can we teach
1t to walk? In word, how can we
emancipate ourselves from the absorbing
tyranny Of these sweet babes. our off
spring?
The solutions which have been in
vented by the solicitude, the ingenuity
and the instinct of mothers have taken
the form Of cradles, swaddles, leading
strings and gocarts. The variety Of
these inventions is considerable, and a
description Of them would form, per-
haps, curious chapter in the history Of
hygiene and domestic economy. -Har-

An Awful Crime.

Duncan Carr was received Wednes-
day at the Ohio penitentisry to serve
out q sentence of one years impris-
onment for stealing loaf Of bread.
That awful crime took place in Huron
county, whose court and jury were
prompt to deal out justice to this male.
factor who broke the laws of the great
state of Ohio and called down upon
him the vengeance Of the fourth state
of the union. Carr was q desperate
william and an awful hardened charac-
ter. He is an old man of nearly 65
years of age, and when he came to
the penitentlary he was in rags and
almost shoeless. He was an old sailor
who had sailed for years on the lakes,
and during the rebellion of lS6l-65
had fought for his country to main
tain its territory intact and uphold its
flag. 1t seems he had no family-no
wife or children to mourn his awful
crime of stealing loaf Of bread. The
story Of this remarkable case is as fol-
lows.
Carr was an old man in distress, out
of work and out at the elbows and out
at the seat of his trousers. He could
not get q job and be openly insulted
the peace and dignity and majesty of
the great state of Ohio. He was pass
ing along the highway in Huron coun-
ty, old, decrepit and hungry in the
day time.
He came to farm house on the
Western Reserve. and gazing into the
kitchen he saw loaf of bread on the
shelf. 1t was temptation too great
to be borne. In an evil moment, over.
come by hunger, the old veteran, who
had served his country, fell. He
yielded to the siren voice and COM
mitted an awful crime. He raised
the kitchen window, went in, took
the aforesaid loaf of bread-a splendid
article which only the good house
wives up in Cheesedom can make. He
ran into the road eating bis bread
as he was nearly famished---and while
eating it the farmer, whose house he
had entered, came up and took in
the situation, apprehended the villain
and took him before justice of the
peace, He was committed to Jail in de-
fault of bail and in due time tried in
the common pleas court and convic-
ted.
The court gave him years SEN
tence. Carr was lucky to live in an
age of philanthropy and charity for
had he lived in Merry England 200
years ago he would have been burned
at the stake, and had be lived in Old
England four centuries ago he would
have beel hanged, drawn and quar-
tered and his carcass given as prey
to the vultures of the air. His crime,
one of the most awful acts of
turpitude in American Jurisprudence,
had to be attoned for the poor old
Carr was made q victim. His sum
mary punishment will be a lesson to
all evlldoers not to steal q loaf Of
bread but to steal millions and then
you will be respected. Steal railroads
and then you will be lords on the
earth. Steal Offices and then the
hoipollol will yell and applaud. But
do not steal loaf of bread for If ycu
do the great state of Ohio will pounce
down upon you and lnflct imprison-
ment in its bastile for at least year.

THE FARMERS HOPE.

Free Trade and the Expansion Of Foreign
commsroe-suFpIus wheat.
Our elevators are bursting with wheat
for which the farmer can command but
little more than 90 cents a bushel. There
are in Europe alone. If we may credit
the statement made by the late secretary
ofagriculture. Mr.. Rusl1. 100. .0o0. 900 peo-
pie who never eat wheaton bread. In the
one country is an immense supplSpf Wis
ible food waiting for buyers In the
other countries are millions who 60 tc
bed hungry. Between them ply daily
ferryboats with freight charges reduced
to minimum. What prevents an ex-
change that means benefit TO both sides
needed food to the one and needed
markets to the other?
Not the sea, for ii costs no more TO
send bushel Of wheat abroad than to
send letter in the mail, but the McKin-
ley bill, which takes from the farmer OF
his middleman one-third or one-half Of
the commodities for which he might ex-
change this surplus wheat in foreign
markets as fine for not buying those
commodities from some protected home
producer.
It Is clear, then, that whatever direct
benefits may come to classes from re-
lease of taxes on the necessaries they
consume or ON materials with which
they work the great general good to be
sought in tariff revision is q healthy ex-
pansion of foreign commerce. This was
the immediate result of the Walker tariff
in 1S46. During the 25 years previous
our foreign trade had not doubled. In
1892 it was $141 100000. In 1916 it had
grown to $227. .0OO. 900, an increase of but
go per cent.
Under the low revenue tariff enacted
in that year it swelled by 1860 to $6S7, :
900, 900, a growth of more than 200 per
cent in IA years. More significant and
instructive still was the increase in the
tonnage of American shipping engaged
In the foreign trade. For 80 years prior
to 1848 it had been nearly stationary.
In that year it was only 943, ,3O7 tons, al
most 40, 900 less than in 1870. By 1860
it reached 2,379, 1896 tons.
These figures speak volumes, but their
chief encouragement is for those who
produce the surplus products that must
have other markets besides our own for
remunerative sales.
The tariff of 1916 made vent for our
surplus products by opening a market
for the things which, and which alone,
other peoples had to exchange for them.
Yet this rapid expansion of imports
brought no distress to home manufac-
turers. On the contrary, after II years
experience of that tariff they assented
almost unanimously to . further de-
crease of 20 per cent.
The party of low tariff and revenue
duties is not about to try q new and
dangerous experiment. It has no new
tangled theory which it wishes to test
upon the body polite. 1t has not only
the support of reason, but this solid jus
tifcation of experience in the reform it
proposes to make by purging our laws
of the duties that smell of monopoly
and rescuing the sovereign power Of
taxation from private control. New
