The Earnings of Married wome,

A married woman is not usually
supposed to contribute directly to the
family purse, her time and strength
being sufficiently taxed when She
keeps house, manages children and
servants, administers carefully the
domestic affairs which lie within her
province That the husband shall
provide means, and the wife attend to
their outlay, saving and economizing
as thrlftily as she can, is the ordinary
arrangement, sanctioned by custom,
and agreeable to our idea of business
and fair division of labor.
1t is now quite usual however, for
married women to supplement the in
come of the family by the exercise of
some gift or accomplishment. They
write, or teach, or lecture. or paint
pictures: they embroider. or make
pickles and preserves. With delight
full feeling of independence, and the
most generous and tender unselfish-
ness, wives who earn money by some
effort of this kind spend il for family
uses. 1t goes to pay school bills and
purchase shoes Wherever there is a
deficiency, the supplementary earn
ings of the wife fit in so
easily AMI in SO timely u
manner that both husband and wife
count on this added source of income
as If it were in the anticipated order
of things. Often "A style of living
rather more cx nensive than would be
practicable on the husbands salary or
on the profits from his business is
adopted because of the wife's earn
ings; a larger rent is undertaken, or
the living of the family is on u broader
scale. it is not usual for wife to
hoard or invest her earnings separ-
ately; they go into the common
purse, and are spent either for luxu-
ries or for the benefit of the children
when Will gets into very tight
place" said, one day, woman who

From an economic standpoint, one
of Can ada's greatest resources is the
inexhaustible supply of minerals
which are stored awav under Cana
dian soil. Large deposits of economic
minerals in absolutely unknown guam
titles and OF unestimated value are to
be found in the mountainous districts
of almost every province in the Domin-
ion.
The showing Of nickel and nickel
ore from the sudbury di'trict of the
province of Ontario is one which has
attracted the universal attention not
only of mining experts but also of
naval officers. The quality of these
ores can hest be indicated by the re-
suit OF the recent tests made by the
naval departments of Great Brit in,
France, many and the United
States, in which Canadian nickel was
found to have the greatest power Of
resistance and was by all means the
most suitable for the purpose of max
ing armor plates for improved war
vessels. Following the result of these
tests American capital Immediately
found it's way into Canada. and even
now thou ands of tons of Canadian
nickel ore are being mined by the
Sudbury Nickel company to fill con-
tract made with the neighboring
authorize, at Washington. This
metal will be used for making armor
plates for our proposed new war ship.

To say that the street illuminationa
are the grandcst ever seen on tho
streets Of any city in the world is to
state the case mildly. The number OF
lights used exceeds $4,000, and more
than half of these are electric. The
down town section is n blaze of light,
arches competing for popularity with
electric effects of the most dazzling
character. These latter are for the
most part panoramas with constant
changes, and vehicle traffic is well
nigh suspended lowing to the crowds
which throng the streets as well as
cover the sidewalks
The western hemisphere panorama,
illustrated herewith, facing Washing,
ton university, has upwards OF l,200
electric lights and tells the story of tho
discovery OF America in letters of fire.
Another magnificent spectacle Is tho
electric floral arch in natural colors
and another is combination of tho
flags of the United States and Spain
with an eagle far above the center
There are ten other electric displays
all equally attractive.
The illuminatio1s will be repeated
Oct. 3, 5, 10 and 10, and every one who
appreciates combination of beauty
and magnifcence ought to see them.
The railroad rates are exceptionally
low and the attractions as exception,

Competition Among Farmers.

The cost of farm labor in Great Bri-
tain, estimated by the statistician of the
agricultural department, is $3.50 per
annum; in France, $125; in Holland
and Austria, 800; in Germany, 500;
In Russia, SEQ; in Italy, $50, and in
India, $50, while the same labor costs
In this country $3.50. The farmers Of
the United States have heretofore come
to appreciate that with the wonderful

Brayton Ives ON Henry Willard.

In connection with the appointment
of receivers for the Northern Pacific
railroad, Mr.. Brayton Ives addresses a
letter to the directors of that road, say
ing of Mr.. Willard: Ellis career has
been unique. With no ostensible OF
visible occupation during the past five
years other than that of president or
chairman of three great companies, he
leaves them impoverished, but he has
acquired fortune, if his friends state
ments can be trusted, at the rate of $1,-
100000 year." In conclusion Mr..
Ives characterizes Willard as 1.-THE
sbrewdest, widest, least scrupulous and
most successful financial adventurer
that has ever come to this country"
, Coming as this does from one of Mr..
Ives social and business position, it must
be interesting reading to those who re-
ceive their ultimate convictions of NOR
ais as well as politics from newspa-
per which Willard bought and for some
time openly edited and managed through
Carl Schurz and the present editors.
It is only fair to say that, though our
president, when lately elected, was will
ing to be au honored guest at Wizards
$40 plate" dinner at Sherry's, The
Evening Rost of New York has been
forced by the pressure of public opinion
to deny that Willard any longer con-
trolled its pages. This denial, however,
carries no more weight than any other
assertion of that paper.
The Mail and Express calls attention
to this characteristic connection of I'M
scrupulousness in finance with hypoc-
risy in morals and politics, and, after
quoting from the letter of Mr.. Ives,
HE goes abroad with full pockets, but
leaves behind empty treasures. that
paper says: And yet to think that the
canting and self righteous Mugwump
organ, from which the pharisees and
the angels derive their political tenets
and their moral inspiration, is controlled

PROTECT AGRICULTURE.
II Is Quite ~ Important as Our Manufac-
turing Industries.

u Is Quite ~ 1mportant as Our manutao-
turing Industries.
The population of the United States
is probably now not less than 65. 000,-
900. If the same ratio as to the en-
ployment of our people holds good, there
are now about 100000 people who
earn wages or live by work, including
about 5000, 900 engaged in agricultu-
raj pursuits. There is no other single
industry that gives employment to so
many of our people as agriculture.
While the product of the agriculturists
does not equal in value the product of
the manufacturing industries, agricul-
ture is, to certain extent, the basis
and foundation of all other industries.
No industry can possibly exist without
it. The farmer feeds all the people.
The miner who goes down into the
earth may dispense with a house and
live in the hole he has dug. The lady
may dispense with the bonnet and de-
pend upon the covering for the head
which nature has given her. And the
man who tolls may dispense with shoes
for his feet and wrap the raw hide
about them. But none of them can
dispense with the products Of the farm.
All must have bread or die. Agricul-
ture should therefore be protected, and
there is no country in the world where
it stands more in need of protection
than in the United States. It should
be protected in the products it produces
and in the market in which it sells its
surplus products. The latter is quite as
important as the former. If the farmer
cannot sell, there is no incentive to pro-
duce more than enough for his own
wants. And if he has no surplus, or
cannot sell what he has, he cannot buy
clothing to keep out the cold or the
necessaries of life upon which he lives.
IL is the money from his surplus pro-
ducts that enables him to live.-The
