The Influence of Flowers.

The box OF most beautiful cut flowers,
recently received from a lady in distant
State, has history.
They came from a conservatory that
was built to protect tropical plants, the
first installment OF which was pack age
of tuberose bulbs from Florida. They
proved a grand success, and encouraged
the owner to try other rare exotics until
this collection is the fullest and fines one
in her section.

spring from the establishment OF Pike e

and are looking quite at home in their
winter quarters as she joyfully reported
few weeks ago.
Every wedding and funeral in her
neighborhood get their flowers from her
collection, and frequently boxes of those
lovely treasures are sent through the
mails to distant friends. The wandering
boy, who has forgotten home so long,
sent to his mother for bouquet OF
flowers. They have gone to the far
West on their mission of love, and their
beauty and fragrance will speak to him
OF a mothers undying love, and bid him
return.
Not long ago an unhappy wife, passing
by, stopped to look in that conservatory,
with it's rare collection of flowers and
palms. Her heart felt their subtle min

Manufacturers Not Hanpered.

American manufacturers are now in
NO way hampered in the matter of raw
material. This is proved by the fact
that under the Mckinley law our i'm.
ports of foreign wool were much great
er than ever before. We imported for
eign raw wool. during the year ending
June 30, 1893, in round figures over
1853, 900, 900 pounds, an increase of 80
per cent over the heaviest imports of
any one year under the previous tariff
law. The cost of this wool to the Amer
lean manufacturer was less, including
duties, than 1T had ever been before.
Now, with the larger quantities Of wool
imported, and with its cost lessened,
wherein is there any ground for the
statement that the American wooden
manufacturer is handicapped in the
matter of raw materialp Besides, the
Mckinley law provides that exported
title the exporter to a return of all such
duties paid on such raw material, save
per cent. Thus, for export purposes,
the American manufacturer has free
raw material. Now, why don't he ex-
port his cloth? Because the labor ne
employs costs from two to three times
the labor of his foreign free trade
competitor, making his product more
costly. Our imports of manufactures
of wool under the Mckinley law
have practically not increased at all,
and the great increase in our imports
of raw material (wooD shows that pro
lection, as adjusted by the Mckinley
law, has stimulated wooden manufac
turing in the United States to such I'M
extent and to have increased the Amer
lean market for wool 80 greatly that the
American mills have required not only
all of the American clip. none of which
is exported, but in addition have had
to import over 1853, 600, 600 pounds Of
foreign wool to supply their needs, and
this has been done without in any man.
