A duty of . per cent is very small, it
is true, but we do not see why there
should be any duty whatever on sole
leather. The present duty of 10 per cent
is of course virtually prohibitory, for
the tanners are exporting sole leather to
the value of $5,000,O00 or SC, 600, 600 per
annum, selling it in foreign lands in
open competition with the sole leather
of other countries.
If they can do this, why should they
require a tariff duty to protect them at
home against sales of foreign sole leather
here? If they can undersen the foreign
ers in foreign markets, after paying
ocean freight charges, surely they ought,
with the same prices. to underSell them
here after the foreigners have been
handicapped by the same charges for
transportation. As we have said, how
ever, the proposed duty is very low, and
the retention of it will not be matter
Of much Importance. But it should not
be reased.-New York Times.

Art for Children.

The children's room in every
house ought to be fitted out with a
blackboard. Any painter will coat
a section of the wall with black
board staining for few cents, or
if there is no painter convenient,
sheets Of slated paper may be tack
ed up against the wall, and the re-
suit is quite satisfactory. A box of
colored chalks and a book of out.
line prints will furnish the mate
rails for drawing and sketching,
and many an hour that would be
otherwise passed in mischief will
be employed by the youngsters in

From the Buffalo Express.
H. w. Allen is man who lives
in Rockford, Ill. He travels for a
wholesale grocery house. He
has a wife and baby. The
other day he threw his shoulder
out of joint. He had trip mapped
out that it was necessary should
be made. His wife told him if he
would mind the baby she would
make the trip for him. He laughed
her to scorn, but she was in earn
est, and she took his sample case,
and went the rounds. The result
was that while he made a rather
poor fist of taking care of the baby
she got ten pages more orders than
he ever secured in one day in all
the years he has been on the road.
The firm has written to Mr.. Allen
suggesting that he trade jobs with
