Fortify Weak Nerves.

This can easily be done. First, use the
finest nervine and tonic in existence, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. Next, give up opiates
and mineral sedatives, which ruin the stom-
ach, and soon cease to have an effect, except
in dangerously large doses. Dyspepsia is the
parent to insomnia and nerve weakness.
The Bitters remedies indigestion and the
two symptoms named. 1t also cures ma
larial, liver and kidney complaints.

THE TIDE is EBBiNG.
A Significant Result of Democratic De-
preston.

PTcSSioh'
There are no unmixed evils.
The election of democratic presi-
dent and congress last November and
the uncertainty and depression in busi-
ness affairs since last March have de-
termined the immigration problem, at
least for some time to come.
THE gates of Castle Garden swing
inward" said ex-President Harrison,
less than twelve months ago, in de-
scribing the unprecedented prosperity
which the country was then enjoying
under a republican administration and
the inviting character which it offered
to the foreigner.
Now the tide is ebbing.
For the first time in the history of
the nation, emigration has taken the
place of immigration. The Italians.
Hungarians, Polanders. Scandinavian
and other foreigners, who came to this
side simply to take advantage of the
opportunity of earning American
wages, rather than for the purpose of
becoming American citizens, are re-
turning home

now returning to their native soils will

If it be true, as the democratic
candidate for governor of Ohio declares,
that protectionists falsely urge their
theory that they wish to pay good
wages to workingmen when in point of
fact they wish to secure cheap labor,
why is it that the workingmen in pro-
than those of any free trade country?
Under the protection system the wages
of American workingmen have steadily
advanced. Mr.. Neal insults the intelli-
gence of the Ohio workingmen by such
twaddle as this However, the whole
Calhoun theory is an insult to Ameri-

In the forenoon Of Jan. 81, 1882, the

the building, just above the window
where the men were, was a telegraph

street to the top Of telegraph pole IN
City Hall park.
He saw that if the wire was cut in the
park it would fall right across the win
dow, so that the men could descend by
it. In an instant he seized tireman's
wrench that lay near by, ran across the
street and began to climb tho tall, smooth
telegraph pole. It was not easy in the
wind and snow, but by hard climbing

Jossmaking is very simple. The man
ufacturer's chief stock in trade consists
Of wooden or metal molds. In these
tie wet clay is put intoshape and allowed
to dry. It is then touched up, dipped in
molten glaze and allowed to cool The
average workman can turn out 100 day.
The clay is kaolin, running from red and
gray to snow white, and costs about l
cent per pound The glaze is melted in
a small charcoal furnace. similar to the
old fashioned soldering furnaces Of re-
tired plumbers.
Tho wages Of a good artist vary from
so to 40 cents per day. The cost of a
fair sized image is about cents. He
sells it for about . cents to native and
for as high as s. to the credulous Euro
pean or American tourist. The molding,
touching and retouching are the same in
all shops. The glazing varies indeti-
nitely It may BE Opaque, Of any color;
transparent, but tinted with any shade
desired, or clear and colorless. The best
work is made by painting the clay with
heavy white paint and dipping in the
glaze last described. In another kind Of
good work the clay is colored in caustic
colors, kept in the heat until they have
set and then glazed as usual. The Chi

Dv,ere Txauri cum Found.

Kauri gum is formed Of the turpentlne
that has exuded from the kauri tree, a
species of pine which is the finest and
for general purposes the most useful
forest tree in New Zealand. Thirty
years ago the Maoris were the only peo-
Die who employed themselves in search
ing for this gum, which at that time was
to be found on or cropping out Of the
surface Of the ground, where perhaps
ages before forests of kauri had stood.
After a few years exports the Maoris
began to dig for the gum few inches
balow the surface. AS the uses for 1t IN
creased, its market value rose, and pres
emily Europeans betook themselves to
digging for it, until at the present time
there are probably 1900 whites and 1000
AIaoris engaged in the work in the Auck-
land provincial district, where alone the
rum is to be found. Hence the output
has steadily increased during the last
thirty years, Notwithstanding that the
gum is not being reproduced, except TO
a very inappreciable extent, in the exist
ing forests, and these are being rapidly
cut down because Of the commercial
value Of the timber.
Within a measurable period of time
the production Of the gum must cease.
although it is expected that at the pres
ent rate it will take so years to exhaust
the deposits in the Auckland district. In
some places gum bearing land has been
purchased from the crown for settlement
purposes, and the gum unearthed IN
blowing it has been sold for enough to
nav the purchase money Of the land and
for plowing, fencing and sowing it as
well.-London Times.
