THE CAUSE OF STRIKES.

Mathew Marshall in an article in
the New York Sun lays down the
proposition that most of the strikes
now taking place in railroad and IN
dustrial pursuits are evidences of re-
turning prosperity. Mr.. Marshall
gets the cart before the horse. II
the strikes were generally for higher
wages his statement would be true.
In very few instances is this the case.
however. The strikes are almost
universally against a reduction of
wages upon the part of employees.
and are evidences of just the reverse
of that asserted in the Sun. In
proof of this we need only point to
the reports of the strikes in the in
dustries throughout the land. Only
in the case of the Great Northern
Railroad Company does the assertion
get shadow of show. and It. ap-
pears that even this is for a resfora-
ton rather than an increase in
wages.
We would advise Mathew Mar
shall and all like him who are seek
ing to make themselves believe that
everything shows evidences of re-
turning prosperity, Notwithstanding
the fact that the prices Of all staple
articles are gradually declining in or
der to meet the appreciation of gold
caused by its scarcity as measUrer
of value In ultimate redemption. to
take another look at the subject.
The industrial strikes are almost
universally caused by this decline in
prices and the consequent reduction
in the rate Of wages for labor. 1t is
clear that no manufacturer or other
can long afford to pay. current wages
when with each week he finds the
price of his product growing less and
less. The real cause of strikes, is
nothing short of the result of forcing
gold monometallism upon the United |
States and the world.
If this process is followed up close
ly and prices are constantly but
gradually lowered, with large quaint
ties OF gold exported to other count |
ries, as is now taking place, it will |
perhaps astonish the Suns cores
pendent to find that he will come
across more and more evidences of
his same kind of returning prosper
ity to whic h he refers. Sentinel.

STYLES In Overcoats.

From London, still the Mecca OF fash
ions to part Of the masculine world, come
the following suggestions:
Economical and quiet folk can well af.
ford to dispense with any great variety OF
overcoats by having useful modliicatlon
of several styles in one. Perhaps the ueep
blue melton, with its velvet collar, whlch
never seems to go out OF fashion, Is the
most serviccable of these to most people.
Made to reach just below the knees, single
breasted and fairly loose fitting, it Will
serve you in town by night as well as by
day. with a high hat, and will pass you
well enough on country road or race
course in the railway carriage or on the
box seat. Made double breasted, with out
side buttons suggesting the driving coat,
it will prove almost as generally usetui,
but will he less unassuming.
Another very desirable coat for all
around use is the modern development OF
the covert coat Reaching nearly to the
knee. with a straight back, slit behind in
the middle, it will take you almost every
where without appearing too horsy.
An almost essential coat for town use IS
the rather thin overcoat made of black
fluffy material, with q silk faced collar
This should be made fairly long, about
down to the knees, and is good deal tax
en- in at the back so as to somewhat rcsem-
BILE frock coat, excepting that 1t has no
tails to it. Such q protection Is NOT only
the most satisfactory thing to wedf with
evening dress, but will also serve for a
smart overcoat in the daytime, when the
weather is not too cold.
Daily Kennebec journal., 1894-11-07
Eow to Make q Courtesy.

An actress says this is the way: "The
simplest way is to put the weight on one
foot, say the left one, and sweep the other
foot back, gradually shifting the weight
upon this foot as the body bends. When
the courtesy is at its lowest, the head bends
slightly, bringing it over the left knee
Then, with the head still low, the weight
is drawn entirely to the right foot, on
which the body rises. Let all be uone
slowly. The grace of the courtesy depends
entirely on its perfect poise at all stages.
'This is attained by slow movement and
requires degree Of steady strength i'll the
muscles of the legs and in the knees. Ine
depth of the courtesy depends on the
length of the sweep back that the right
foot takes. A pretty courtesy may be made
with deep sweep back of one foot, a bend
ing of the body, resting chiefly on the
back foot, then a shifting of the weight
again to the front foot. This is less form
al and a little easier to do, perhaps.
Some will find it easier to use one foot,
and others to use the other foot for the
sweep back, some will find it easier to
come up on tho back foot, and others to
come up on the front foot Others, again,
will find it easier to sit down between
their feet and not come up at ALL

gowns. Boucle cloths, with soft, curly,
glossy loops of black mohair on a colored
ground of dark red, green or bluet, are ex-
tremely attractive winter materials.
The fancy vicunas are made rough and
have small designs, and many of the Gre
pons as well as the vicunas have q waved
pattern in black on foundations of the
new colors These are the new bluet,
cerise and other purplsh reds and bright
green, and they are found especially in the
ladies' cloths, costumes of which are made
still more striking with velvet accessories
of contrasting color
This winter will be a velvet season in
dinner and evening gowns, carriage and
calling costumes, and cloth and velvet arc
very char1ningly combined in gowns for
youthful wearars.
The new velvets have been brought out
not only in the fashionable plain colors,
but in bright, rich plaids and small checks
Of single color, with black. Besides
these come the changcable velvets and the
speckled ones, with tiny Aecks of white Oh
a colorcd ground.
Coats hold their own. An extremely

The Smilax.

Do not imagine that this beautiful vine
can be owned and enjoyed only by those
who have an experienced gardener and ex-
pensive greenhouse. Almost any flower
lover can add it to her window collection
and thereby possess a vine that is univer-
sally admired and holds a higher place in
public favor for decorative purposes than
almost any other plant or vine known.
The flowers, although fragrant are small
and rather Insignificant. But the luxu-
RANT masses of glossy foliage are as beauti-
full as snowy blossoms and are unexcelled
for bouquets, wreaths and other cut flow
er work, since sprays remain fresh and
bright for hours after being cut from the
main vine. The smilax is propagated by
dividing the roots, which consist of nu-
merous tubers united by top, or crown,
from which the vine grows; also from
seed, but as these are slow to germinate
much tiresome waiting will be avoided if
good healthy plants are purchased from a
reliable florist. 1t requires rich, sandy
soil and plenty of light, but seems particu-
larly adapted to those locations where di
