THE BURDEN OF SILVER.

One of the pictorial hits of the season
represents Carlisle staggering under
weight of silver. Labor steps up to the
Secretary and says: ''lf that load is
really so heavy why don't you put it in
circulation and let us carry some of it?"
Carlisle of course does not hear what
Labor says. When he accepted the office
of Secretary of the Treasury he undertook
to pack the load though it nigh bear him
down to his political grave. Under Seere-
tary Carlisle's administration of the treas
ury there has been an almost unprece-
denied scarcity of currency. New York
banks have been driven to the necessity of
violating the law which requires them to
pay out currency in satisfaction of checks
presented. Money brokers have loaned
out currency at large premium. and on
occasions the demand for currency has
been so great that handsome premiums
have been paid for silver dollars. But
this condition did not induce the Secre-
tary to put in circulation even such silver
dollars as were in excess of certificates
issued against silver deposited in the
treasury. With few millions in gold hur-
rying about from New York TO London,
from London to Paris and other European
cities. from one American city to another,
silver, which the constitution makes the
Joint basis with gold for the redemption
of currency, has been allowed to remain in

HOUSEKEEPING SCHOOLS.

There is a class of school in Sweden
which we have not in America. although
here, Also its influence would be appIeci-
ated. Sweden has actually in operation a
school where girls re taught housekeeping
practically; not, however, as part of the
commOn-scbOol system. but as a separate
Institution on a voluntary basis. The

of life has been carried far In Sweden.

ing is given in general education and in
languages, but the pupil is not allowed to
grow up with useless consumption Of
precious time on the embellishments of
culture, which often are hindrance
rather than a gain in the struggle for ex-
istence. The idea of founding house.
keeping schools originated in observing how
pupils who did well in the national schools
sometimes went wrong in life from their
want of skill and adaptabi!ity as servants
or otherwise. Teachers who had noted
the fate of their pupils eo-operated in the
movement, and from a small beginnin z

which is in such good repute that mothers
strive to get their daughters entered for
its classes when they are only 5 years of
age, although they are not received until
they are 16
Pupils must be Of good character. They
are taught everything connected with
household management during a term Of
three years. They learn cooking. plain
and artistic, waiting on table, chamber
work, baking in all branches, laundry
work, sewing, and all the duties which
tend TO render home life agreeable. They
have even regular days appOrtiOned to the
mending of old clothes, aud the happy
man who WEEDS one of these pupils is pre-
sumably never in distress at the absence
of button or owing to rent somewhere
in his habiliments. Some of the work
brings small remuneration. At the end
Of the three years the graduate receives q
certificate of qualification and departs into
the outer world under the friendly gaze Of
the directors and teachers, who maintain
communication with her. There are num-
bers of these pupils in America, and no
doubt they rank high as servants and
equally high as model wives. If the pupil
marries in Sweden, the school arranges
the wedding festivities and pays due honor
to the protege. who is entitled to invite
thirty friends.
Sweden is a poor country. but very indie

AID TO THE TORIES.

There will be two opinions as to the
wisdom of the expression OF hostility on
the part of the Irish National League to
Gladstone's home-rue bill. The league
will be quoted in England as pointing che
way 10 a result which the Tories have de-
clared must follow home rule. Mr.. Glad

on the representation that il would afford
no stepping-stone TO Irish independence.
This was the apprehension that be had to
contend against The Tories said that
home rule would put the irish in position
to declare their Independence. Gladstone
said that it would deprive them of the in
centive to the establishment OF separate
government. The National League seems
to have strengthened the position of the

ONE-MAN POWER.

Washington dispatches say that Presi-
dent Cleveland absolutely refuses to COM
promise on the silver repeal bill. Neither
will the President promise to agree to any
recognition of silver should his followers
in the Senate pass the repeal bill. So far
the will of the President seems to be the
law of Congress. The second administra-
ton of Cleveland is likely to present an
issue compared to which the issues upon
which Cleveland was elected are OF minor
Importance. The issue is this: May the
