THE PRESIDENTS GOVT.

President Cleveland has got the govt.
1t has attacked him in the foot. and
driven him to the use OF a large, sof;
shoe, the laclngs OF which, We are told.
can be loos"ned at will.
1t is difficult to say whether this Will
be good news or bad news for tho per-
sistcnt ofice-seckers. who continue to
poster him for the fat places still vacant
in this city, and which have long been
claimed as the legitimate spoils Of the
Mugwump politicians. 1t IS not possible
for the President to act az no doubt lie
would like to act towards his spOiis-
hunting tormcntors. because with II dis
nbled foot and "a soft shoe he cannot
crafty n natural desire he must often
feel. But at the same time twingcs OF
rheumatic govt are not conducive to
q liability OF temper. and a man with
: stiff ankle, every movement of which
Il followed by cXcruciating pain, and
with n t%hrobbing great toe. is not likely
to listen patiently to the pleadings OF
persistent beggars.
However, the govt ia n disease easily
controlled, and which Is not likely TO
last long. A sharp treatment OF sala-
cilica will soon drive II out. The diff
Guilty In the way of cxpectant surveyors
and naval officers is that the President
Is anxious to go fishing, and will prob
ably be off again with his rods and flies
as soon as he gets through nursing his
equity foot. But the expcctaut plum
gatherers must remember that only n
little more than ono year of President
Cleveland's term has yet expired. and he
has three more left during which Ia
clear tho Offices OF Republicans and to
make Democrats and Mugwumps happy.

OUR DISHONEST DOLLARS.

There Is Il good deal of practical irony
In Senator Sherman's resolution directing
an inquiry whether the United States
law against count. rfeiting coins of this
and other countries could be enforced
against those who coin silver dollars on
their w account Of exactly the same
weight n fineness as the standard
silver dollar. The Senator caused a
press despatch from Omaha to be read,
stating that a private mint In that city
was engaged in that business, making II
profit OF about tlfty-one cents on the
dollar through the difference between the
actual value Of the silver and it's coined
value.
Of course, Senator Stewart, OF Nevada,
|interposed an objection. and the resulu.
ton was not acted upon. But Senator
Sherman had accomplished his object.
If private individuals can realize a
profit of more than one hundred per
e by buying silver and coming it
into dollars of precisely the same weight
and fneness as a standard silver dollar,
Is not the poor laborer ~defrauded who
Is compelled TO accept for his wages az a
fun one hundred cents a coin worth less
than fifty cents? And would not free
coinage be n direct robbery of the people
for the benefit OF the silver kings?
1t may be claimed that the working
mans silver dollar has as good purchas-
ing power as a gold dollar. But this Is
casuistry. a debased currency never
has Il purchasing power equal to n
sound currency. In some way or an
other the seller takes care that the
buyer gets only the actual value of the
coin with which he pays, and not its
fictitious value.

VIII Make Fire on Sundays.

To the Editor:
Allow me through your worthy columns to con-
graduate "Maude H." for the stand she takes
in reference us to who should make the hre;
she is the only sensible young lady who has so
far written on the subject. l wish l could
congratulate her personally. What makes a man
marry? Is 1t simply to support a wife and double
his daily tasks? ny all means no. Any woman
who expects her husband to make the FIRE in the
morning is worse than useless. What are a
wlte's tolls compared with a husband's7 And
does 1t not look sensible that he should get an
extra hours sleep in the morning while his
wife prepares breakfast? She has the privilege
OF taking n nap during the day. When wives
support their husbands then say let
the men mbake the fre. ! am q young man
making $40 per week. and an on the lookout for
the right kind OF q wife-not one like that crazy
lunatic who signs herself Grace Foster. I do
not expect to make the FIRE. but expect my wife
to do 80 with the exception OF Sundays, when l
don't work. then l shall gladly make It. JOE.

Ice-dealers are early in the field with
plans for a combine to raise prices this
Summer. The old stories OF three or four
seasons G about a scarcity of supply
and an expensive importation of Ice from
Maine are revived and dlshed up for the

barons. They are pure trash. The last
time the ice-trust game was played on
New York big shiploads OF the crystal
Aecessity were left TO melt away In
Maine ~ice-houses n at New York piers

visible supply OF frozen truth is all
against your story OF a falling supply Of

Protection and Wages.
To the Editor:

10 Inc F1WTtUT.
"A Free-Trader' says that the Republican
principle docs not protect workmen by a protec-
tive tariff. because the manufacturer and o.her
protected employers, by uniting together and
possessing the sinews of war. can and do starve
their workmen into submission as soon as thoy
want a share In the plumber taken from the
people" Now. can "a Free-Trader'' cite one
circumstance where the employer. having his
goods protected. and therefore getting higher
prices for them. has refused the employees more
wages when asked, and as a consequence creating
a strike, then forming a trust to compel these
strikers to submit to their terms' There has been
a number of strikes, but in almost every in
stance the employer has had to either keep the
wages down or reduce them a sufficient amount
TO enable them to run the establishment on full
time and retain all hands. W. Il. c.,

Song of the Looking Glass,

Sing the song of the looking glass,
The friend OF ev'ry pretty lass;
with ms polished, and its look
Clear as the crystal, babbling brook.
Whate'er Its station or Its frame,
Like virtue, 1t still shines the same.
1t fatters not. but tells the truth
To prince or peasant, age or youth.
A moral, too, 1t may convey,
If but to hear 1t you will stay:
The world ~itself's a looking-glass,
Where many mirrored selves do pass,
If on 1t, now, you kindly smile,
Your pleasures 1t reflects the while.
But. If with sour, ~ill-favored grace
This mirror shows you your own faca
Then learn by 1t that beauty's right,
And try to smile with all your might,
But n thing more ] have to say
Ere from this theme we turn away:
Look h but in this glass of mine
Thou'l see my own lear valentine;
Yet fear I when your face you view
Narcissus's fable will come true,
Who died while bending Ger the brook
Enamored of his own fair look!

Part your hair in the middle. waving
it deeply. Allow a few locks to stray
W on the sides, curling them
towards the temples, and allow them

on the sides. The waved portion Of
our hair carry back loosely and let it
