we mentlOneQ SOmetnlnp
last week about a weather
prophet telling us we we're
going to have dry weather
during 1894. He wishes to
amend his statement now by
saying that it only applies to
localities where it does not
rain. The weather will not
hurt us to any great extent
because, when the streets are
muddy, people will want Hart
mann's steel mats, and we
have them in stock. Another
thing they must have is an I'M
proved Stone Filter. The
rain makes the water impure
and it is necessary TO filter it to
keep disagreeable things from
being taken into the stomach
and causing scarlatina and all
sorts Of diseases. We keep
the best filter manufactured;
one that may easily be kept
clean, and is cheaper than any
other.
Frank Walcot's knife sharp
ener is known all over the
world and with a generous use
Of printers ink we hope to
make it very well known here.
This contrivance is made of
compressed emery and resem-
bles a scythe stone in shape.
Having sides ofdifferent grades
Of fneness, it is adapted for
sharpening any edge tools, and
must supplant files for keep
ing cane knives in order be-
cause one Of them will outlast
many dozen files. We believe
we have all Of these sharpen
ers in this market; if you want
your carvers sharp with the
least trouble and expense, ask
US for a Frank Wolcot Knife
Sharpener."
Rochester Student lamps arc
in demand wherever people
read books for pleasure OF
mental profit. They are es-
pecially desirable for the pur-
pose because they give the
maximum light with the min,
imum heat. They are not as
ornamental, perhaps, as some
Of other styles but theyare quite
as,serviceable for general pur
poses. We invite your atten
ton to an assortment we have
just opened; to us they seem
to be handsomer than any stu
dent lamps we have ever seen
in other shops.

But the false prophets are now in hiding,

The presentation by the Washington Light
Infantry Corps of ships bell to the United
States Cruiser Columbia directs attention
to the fact that far no movement fas
been made to conform to custom in the
matter of a gift from the people OF the
District of Columbia TO the ship named in
honor of their place of habitation. Other
cities. for whom warships have been christ
ened, have been more or less generous with
tokens Of acknowledgment but up to this
time no effort has been made-save by the
one organization named-to establish d close
relationship between the District of Column
bia and its aquatic namesake. Ordinarily
such neglect would not have been possible,
but the efforts that have been made to re-
lieve distress consequent upon times Of
great financial stringency have resulted in
a not unnatural inactivity in other move
ments involving monetary contributions.
Business has now a brighter look and there
is more cash In circulation than there WAS
month or two ago. Would it not be we'll
for the District Commissioners or the Board
of Trade to open a subscription list? The

tangibly linked to the Natioral Capital.

The tendency Of the income tax is toward an
extension of its provisions until the statute
drains revenue for the government out of
all those whose earnings, however small
exceed an amount which may be exempted
on the score of charity. The lesson taught
by bitter experience should not go I'M

TO occupy place in the governmental
polity 1t will not soon nor easily be gotten
rid of, for to do away with 1t would mean
a complete reversal of the taxation policy
which gave birth to 1t. The tendency
whenever there was need of increased
revenue-would therefore be toward a low
ering Of the dividing line and the taxing
of income down probably to the thousand
dollar point. Such q change would not
of course, be in accord with the populistic
idea, which Is now apparently uppermost
In both branches of our national legisla-
ture, but it is nevertheless highly probable
that some such action would ultimately
result. No sound reason can be advanced
to support statement that only those
whose income exceeds four thousand dol
lars per year should contribute directly
to the filling of the national treasury. If
We must have an income tax 1t will be
only reasonable to imagine that all classes
are to be levied on alike
