A SIGNIFICANT SIGN.

An Indication That Tariff Reform II Still
In Demand.
It is natural, perhaps that the repub-
lican press should endeavor to belittle
the democratic victory il the congress
ional election in McKinley's old dis
trict In Ohio, but the very effort they
make in that behalf shows that they
appreciate the full significance of the
victory. They may we'll do so. There
has been a good deal of chatter in the
organs OF the party about reaction in
public sentiment" concerning the Nc
Kinley tariff and a good deal of exulta-
ton over republican victories here and
there, but it is worthy of note that this
election is the first that has been held
since the revolution in 1892, in which
the Mckinley issue was fairly and
squarely raised.
The followers Of Mckinley realized
this and made extraordinary efforts to
carry the district which he himself car
ried in the gubernatorial election by a
majority of nearly six hundred. They
had in their favor the hard times, the
dissatisfaction so widespread over the
delay in passing the tariff reform meas
ure, the help OF the American Protect
i've association and the customary sof
year" indifference. But with all these
advantages they were beaten by sub
stantially the same majority which the
democratic candidate had in 1892. No
wonder the republican organs are
whisting to keep their courage up,
for so long as the country clings to
tariff reform when tariff reform is in
issue the carrying Of few municipal
or even state elections for the z. o. p.
on other issues will be Of small avail
The value Of the election to the dem
ocracy is in the indication it affords
that the alleged reaction" has not re-
acted and that the people have not yet
abandoned their hope of tariff reform
or their intention to secure it.-Detroit

BRUSH Your clothes Down.

s'Look at that boy brushing those

tailor the other day in barber shop.
Clothes" said he, SHOULD always be

directed whence it must ultimatel.
fall. We are very careful, when cut
ting garments, to cut them in such a
way that the grain of the cloth can be
best smoothed downward. Sometimes,
however, the pattern prevents this be-
ing done. A piece of goods with rep
tending in the wrong direction fills
with dust much quicker than other
wise and requires twice as much care
to keep it clean. Courier

A Philadelphia firm makes speciality

delicious by all who taste it. A small,
solid cake of the cream is enveloped in
thin sheet of pie crust. and then
dipped in boiling lard or butter long
enough to cook the outside to a crisp.
Served Immediately, the ice-cream is
found to be as solidly frozen as when
it was first prepared. The process Of
frying is so quickly accomplished, and
the pastry is so good protector, that
the heat has no chance to reach the
frozen cream.

capital by Mrs. Alexander Hamilton.
She used to tell with amusement OF
the delight with which President
jackson first tasted it. and how he
promptly decided to have ices at the
executive mansion. Accordingly
guests at the next reception were
treated to the frozen mystery, and at
forded considerable fun to she initiated
by the reluctance with which they
tasted it. Those from the rural dis
tricts, especially, fist eyed it suspi-
ciously, and then melted each spoonful
with the breath before consuming it.
Their distrust was soon removed, how
ever, and plates were emptied with
great rapidity.- Leader.

FLIRTING PROVES vULGARITY.
Highly Bred Women Are Not Guilty o.
This Folly.

Highly Bred Women Are Not Guilty OF
This Folly.
The ssflirting' debate in a sober
minded contemporary has been anus
ing rather than instructive. When
the artful old rascal in ''Featherbrain"
was called to account after hanging
punches of red and white grapes on
the same vine upon an arid little es-
tate which he wanted to sell, he ex-
planned the phenomenon as "al the
fertility of the SOIL So is flirting
'.all matter of temperament" says
the London Pictorial.
The ethics of Irritation have yet to
be defined, but the results are toler-
ably well proved. Now and then an
arrant firt may marry happily, but
these cases are exceptional. The man
who is weak-minded enough to be
seriously smitten by the coluetries OF
f1irt is rarely good material out OF
which to make husband. But most
f1irts remain unmarried or marry in
despair some man for whom they don't
care an atom, because marrying men,
as a rule, either leave taem severely
alone or ia Ike them at Their own value
and consider a f1irt just good enough
to firt with.
"A youth of folly. an old age OF
cards." might be adopted as a hirt's
motto, as it is her usual fate. That
flirting is foolish would probably
check scarcely any; that it may de-
velop into a tragedy if the firt is
caught unaware in a grande passion
which is not returned may possibly
give pause to few; that it is essen
TALLY vulgar and the hallmark OF
vulgar mind may perhaps induce the
majority to discard the practice II
they have hitherto been inclined to 1T.
It has been well said that flirting is an
education in fippancy, lightness OF
manners and hardness OF heart and
that as practiced to-day it is not read
lily distinguished from general bad
manners.

and the perfessor passed his hand over
my face. when the body limbered up
little and they set me down in a chair.
From his coat pocket the perfessor
pulled out a potato and said: "Here,
william. is nice red apple. eat it
quick! before they take it away from
you" The potato changed right into
nice red apple, and William ate it as
fast as he could.
Then the perfessor called for cham
payne glass, and broke it into bits.
which he gave to William, saying they
were rock candy. William crunched
the candy with delight.
Then the perfessor produced some
needles, and stuck them through Will
liam's cheek and lips. Not a drop of
blood came. The perfessor said that
proved conclusively there was no pain.
William remained so still during it
all, and he breathed so feebly, that l
thought maybe he was dying, because
I was his soul and had been out of his
body so long. That kind of scared me.
and as didn't want William to die l
went and wrapped myself around him,
and it seemed he gradually absorbed
me-
And that's all remember until the
perfessor woke me up by swapping his
fingers back of my ears. The men all
said 1t was pretty good, and the per-
fessor asked me if l had had any
dreams when was asleep. 1 told him
1 had, but 1 was so muddled up
couldn't remembe them as clearly as
do now.
Then the perfessor said: Good night,
gentlemen. Much obliged" and we
left.
Maybe you think we didn't have a
great feed that night! The perfessor
bought me all the oysters l could eat.
Next night we went through pretty
much the same thing, only at another
saloon.
Then the perfessor took me up to big
newspaper office and hypuotized me for
the editors private benefit. Next day
the editor gave him a notice column
and half long, and with that notice
the perfessor took me along and start
ed out to enlighten the adjacent small
towns on hypnotism.
We have been gone three months.
Sometimes there were a good many
people in the hall, and sometimes we
had to walk from one town to another.
The perfessor always invites the au-
dience up on the stage to get hypno-
tized. Mostly kids come, but they are
hard to do anything with, the perfes-
sor says. Sometimes there is grown
up man or two comes that the perfes-
sor can hypnotize, and he makes them
do some very funny things.
Well, rs was saying, our luck amt
always the best when we are OH the
road, and the perfessor at times looks
very near as hungry as he did when he
hired me. But he never allows me to
90 hungry. He just says: well, Will
liam, you've got your stomach full,
anyway"
The perfessor says am the best sub
ject he ever had, so guess I've got
steady job.
