but if the clouds will let down
rain enough for the planta-
tons it will mean money for
the people. Last year the
drought knocked the profits of
the sugar planters galley west;
this year unless all signs fail
there will be moisture enough
to keep things going until the
tariff is put on sugar.
Hendry Breakers are going
to plantations by every steamer
and the Hendry Mould Board
is increasing in popularity be-
cause it leaves such a clean
furrow that it is ready for
planting or irrigating as soon
as the plow goes over the
ground.
The demand for the Pansy
Iron Stove by people Of econo
inical ideas is growing. We
believe it to be the best and
cheapest stove for the money
to be found anywhere. A
good baker that will use little
fuel is hard to get for SIS but
you can get it from us when
you buy a Pansy.
Have you noticed how the
grass is shooting up with the
assistance Of the damp weather,
That means that you want a
lawn mower. We have the
conventional style that cuts
grass Of ordinary length. We
have also the High Grass Cut
ters that are needed wherever
the grass has been neglected.
The advantage in having a
High Grass Gutter is in the
fact that it will cut short grass
as well. For garden use we
have a full stock Of Sprinkling
Pots from a gallon up to the
iive-gallon size. We japan
these SO that there is little dam
yer of their rusting. II you
are too tired to run a sprink-
ling pot we can sell you the
best lawn sprinkler you ever
saw for Sa.5o-one that will
work easy and cover space
twenty feet in diameter.
Can you think Of any rea
son why you should not have
a full set Of decorated china
when we are selling genuine
llaviland Ware in installments
OF a half-dozen or even a sin
gle piece at a time? 1t is just
as easy for YOU to buy this
Ware and be able to duplicate
any broken piece as it is to
buy other styles Of decorated
ware, sold only in full sets, and
when one piece is broken you
cannot get another.
Some people prefer to cook
over an oil stove than one that
burns coal or wood We are
selling the Dietz OIL Stove,
built just like any other, and
has an oven, broiler, sauce
pans, etc. People who are
now using them tell us they
are less expensive to run and
cook just as well as a wood
stove. In a warm climate
where people do not require
to be "all 'het up" ten hours
in the day, we believe the oil
stove to be a good thing.
Ours are very complete and
economical Of oil.
There does not seem to be
any let up in the number Of
the people who want to get a
good strong fence for very lit
tie money. The demand on
US for the Jones Locked Fence
is growing daily and we are
always ready to meet it, We
have convinced large num-
Der of people that eight cents
for a stay and washers is
cheaper than seventeen cents

The achievements of the nineteenth cent
ury in the way of mechanical engineering
have been so great and varied that we are
apt to think they cannot be equaled IN the
future. The progress that has been made
since the discovery of the properties of
power has indeed been marvellous. 1t is a
long reach from the slow sailing vessel that
took months to cross the Atlantic to the
swift and capacious steamer that makes
the voyage in six days, or from the lumber
ing vehicle laboriously drawn by animal
power and carrying a few thousand pounds
of freight to the powerful locomotive that
hauls long and heavily-laden trains of cars
at the rate of twenty miles an hour. This
development has been accompanied by en-
cheering feats that have astonished the
world and led many 10 think that the limit
of progress in this direction had been
reached. A little reflection will show that
this is not the case, and that the opening
years of the twentieth century are likely
to witness the completion of some works
equal in magnitude and Importance TO any
that have been completed during the pres
ent century.
To mention only a few OF the great en-
cheering works which are either under
way at present or certain 10 be completed

TROUBLES OF THE -FOUR HUNDRED.

Every now and then the public-the COM
monplace. everyday, plebeian public-is af-
forded a glimpse of nigh life not alto
gether to edification. AS often as not this
glimpse comes through the medium of an
unpleasant scandal or the divorce court,
and through these open doors the fact is
made known that the skeletons in the
closets of the Four Hundred are quite as
numerous and as grisly as those in more
modest habitations. 1t is discovered that
happiness does not exist in exact proper
ton to the size Of the bank account.
Nevertheless, so prone is the average NOR
full purse with perfect felicity that moral
derelictions and consequent misery of mil
lionaires never cease to excite surprise.
There is always the wonder as to why they
are not satisfied with the legitimate pleas
ures that wealth will buy-and which seem
so enticing to those without money-but
must needs follow after strange gods, and
into by and forbidden paths. A study of
any one case will show the cause of this
frequent moral vagrancy among the opu-
lent. Take. for instance, the disclosures of
the list. 1t appears. according to the ac-
counts Of presumably veracious family
friends, that Mr.. and Mrs. willie" Van
derbilt were not well adapted to each
other for the reason that Mrs. Willie was
too exacting in her demands upon her hus-
band and his friends. The most heinous

jected to having the party leave the yacht
at every town and remain away all night.
She also protested against being left to her
own devices while Willie and his compan-
ions played poker. In order to keep her in
a good humor it was the custom of these
heightened gentlemen. all members of the
inner court of the Four Hundred. to cut
cards to determine which one should sac
rifice himself by entertaining the lady.

social life of ordinary people 1t would be
the privilege and pleasure Of any we'll
bred gentleman to devote himself to the
entertainment OF his hostess whenever. oc-
casion required. These men were indis-
posed to put themselves TO inconvenience
for any cause. and did not hesitate to rebel
openly against the rules Of common civili-
qualification that Difference TO the wishes
OF others in the smallest degree was irk-
some to them, n they did not hesitate

The death OF Gen. Nathaniel p. Banks,
of Massachusetts, removes another of the
few men who were conspicuous during the
period of the breaking up of the old
parties incident TO the aggressive policy
of the advocates of slavery extension. He
was born a child of toll. He was a bob
bin boy in a cotton mill. He picked UP
the of education, was an omniv-
leader in a village debating club. while the
sons of the well-to-do were attending to
what are called the social duties of young
men. He was early in the lecture field
and in the Legislature as a Freesoil Demo-
crat. In Congress. during the Kansas
Nebraska struggle, and. after the name of
John Sherman was dropped, he was elected
Speaker of the House which met in De-
cember, 1S55-of which ex-Gov. VIII Cum
back was a member and one of the few
survivors. Then he was Governor nearly
to the beginning Of the war, and later a
major general of volunteers. Rarely, even
in this country, has a man been carried so
rapidly from poverty and obscurity to ma
tional fame and influence. In 1856 he was
one of the leading competitors with FIRE.
mont for the first Republican candidacy for
President. For his time he was one of the
best qualified men who have held the Office
Of Speaker. AS Governor of Massachu-
sets he was most acceptable, and he was
always popular in the district in which he
lived. AS a military commander he was
as signal a failure as the rebellion devel-
oped IN the Union side. Until within
twenty years he was a popular and effect
i've orator-one Of the most popular and
most effective in New England during the
period Of slavery agitation. He may be
said to have spent his life in public en-
Payments; but when the slavery conflict
was over and the issues growing out of it
were practically settled, he did not so
yrasp the new issues as to retain the prom
inence he enjoyed during that period. In
securing, without apparent effort, the most
prominent and desirable public positions,
he was the most successful man in recent
history. Under Presidents Hayes and Ar
thur he was United States marshal, and
yet. with all the positions of profit which
he held, ne has, for several years, been
cared for by Massachusetts, men who re-
membered and appreciated his early serv-
full in securing public position for thirty
years failed to secure a competency against
extreme age, what a dismal prospect the
young man has before him who chooses
public employment as a vocation for life!

FALLACIES OF DEMAGOGUES AND
AGITATORS.

There are many well-meaning people who
are misled by the phrase producers and
nonproducers,' and by the assertion that
''all wealth is the product of manual labor"
They are phrases used by those agitators
whose vocation is to array one employment
against another and one party necessary
to the production of merchandise against
the other. They are proclaimed, usually,
the distributors of merchandise. and who
are neither capitalists nor workers, but
parasites upon labor.
To say that the men whose labor and
skill change one material into another
more valuable are the only producers of
wealth is a grave mistake and an injustice
to their colaborers. The products of the
workshop and the factory are taken to the
warehouse from the factory-what value
would they have if another class of men
were not ready to distribute them? The
marketing of the products of the factory
and the farm is as essential to production
as are the materials from which the goods
are made; yet many workers in factories
nave been led to ~stigmatize those who take
samples and travel over the country to sell
the product of the shop or mill as mon
producers Without them. under the pres
ent system OF sharp competition, merchan-
disc would not find the market as quickly
and as surely as 1t does under the system
Of distribution which employs an army of
commercial travellers and office men who
are in constant correspondence with job
bers and other distributors. The actual
cost of distributing the products of a fac
tory is large. Take. for instance. sewing
machines. The cost OF making is not much
more than one-half of the selling price, be-
cause the distribution and the collection OF
the money for which they are sold involve
so much necessary expense. When the mer-
chandise reaches the retailer. statesmen and
women are as necessary to the ultimate dis
tribution OF the goods as any part of the
system of production and distribution.
| Consequently. any service rendered in
changing materials into forms essential to

hands of the consumer is productive labor.

and one process is as much production as
any other.
Equally erroneous Is the claim that labor

occurred to one OF the primitive men that
the stick to stir the soil might be pointed,
and he set his brains. not his hands. TO
devise a contrivance TO sharpen the stick.
He succeeded. and then his hands made
the rude machine, which might have been
no more than a process of friction by con-
tact with a c~oarse-grained stone. The next
season this savage brings out his pointed
stick and surprises his fellows by being
able to stir twice or three times as much
as those with the primitive stick. The
other sayages are eagT to acquire q

THE VANDERBILT SCANDAL.

There is a propensity among the ac-
colnplished gentlemen VINO write up SEN
sational happenings for the press to regard
the incidents of any nasty scandal in which
prominent personages figure as romantic"
This is manifest in the Vanderbilt case.
but here the chroniclers go even further
and endeavor to cast a shadow of pathos
over the unsavory incidents by picturing
the multi-millionaire as a helpless victim
OF an irresistible siren. This siren is de-
scribed with much particularly and unc-
ton as so alluring and beautiful that even
the sternest moralist, when made the OBJ
come a worshiper and follow obediently in
her train. Vanderbilt, being a sufferer from
domestic infelicity, naturally had less re-
sisting power, and, once drawn unwittingly
into the charmed circle. succumbed to the
spell of the enchantress. Viewed from this
standpoint, the tale is quite touching, but,
unfortunately, as facts come out. they COM
pei a change in the point of view. The
sensational gentlemen of the press went off
half-cocked, as it were. and described the
wrong siren. Misled by a similarity of
fornia beauty, and, in the language of the
street, 'let themselves loose in picturing
her destinations. As they told 1t, she was
one of those wonderful creatures, often
raoI % h,f CaIIo-, eaa, or rIr
attractive and charming that no man was
safe in her presence. What would have
happened had Vanderbilt really come with
in reach of this California houri's sorceries
can only be conjectured; as it turns out,
she is not the woman on whose account
he has disgraced himself and family. The
actual woman in the case is known to un-
pleasant fame in Paris as fat Nellie"
Fat Nellie! Thus are romance and senti-
mental pathos knocked higher than a rock
et. Neither can cling successfully to a
fat and uncomely woman Of notorious life.
The truth discloses Mr.. Vanderbilt not as
a helpless victim of a peerless charmer,
but as a. willing follower after a vulgar
adventures. The truth in his case is the
truth in ninety-nine cases out Of a hun
dred, whether a millionaire or a day labor
er is the chief figure The man in the case
is not inveigled into the tolls u~nwillingly,
but meets the temptress. who is in reality
apt to be an unprepossessing temptress, at
least half way, and has no right to pose as
a victim. 1t has been thus since the world
began, and a Vanderbilt makes no excep-
ton to the rule. -

to make their toll produce twice as much

one OF them for a certain share of his
crop. The sharpened stick is capital, BEN

creased production due to 1t, and the latter
a half more than he could produce without
it. The inventor, thereafter, devotes his
time TO making and improving his discov-
cry. In time some other person discovers
that a broad blade would turn up more soil,
and another that a sheet Of stone can be
attached to the stick. so that. in time. the
man who possessed the last implement
could do six times as much soil-turning as
the primitive savage with his primitive
stick. 1t was not manual labor which real
ly gave value to the sharpened stick, but
the brain which conceived it, and the gain

cause of the discovery of the process Of
artificial production. This year, if our peo-
pie had depended upon natural ice, the
price would have put it beyond the reach
of those who most need it. For years chem
lists and mechanical experts have expert
mented to devise the material and machine
which would produce artificial ice cheaply;
capital was interested, and after many fail
ures and much loss experiments proved
successful. The invention. the product of
study and ingenuity, has become capital.
The chemists and the inventors who spent
time and thought and made experiments
would be classed to-day as nonproducers by
those who claim that manual labor is the
test of production; nevertheless they have
given the world a discovery which has
made the cost of an article of necessity
cheap, after it had been made available
by that capital which Socialists stigmatize
as robbery. All that manual labor con-
tributed to this beneficial discovery was
the working out of the plans of the invent
ors, for which labor capital paid. Thus
study, inventive capacity and capital have
contributed the essentials to a discovery
which has made more employment for Ia
Dor and put a comfort within the reach of
the masses.

The manufacture of perfumes has reached
great perfection. There seems to be no end
to the delightful odors compounded by
modern chemistry to perfume my lady's
boudoir, 10 scent her handkerchiefs or to
crafty our sensitive olfactories. But, after
all, how meager and impotent are the re-
sources of art compared with those of ma
ture. Chemistry can mix perfumes and
form new combinations of what it finds
ready made. but it cannot create a new
one. Nature makes all her own perfumes,
and that, too, from the crudest materials.
Given a crock. a plant, some earth and
water. and she will distiil a perfume such
as was never dreamed of in your chemis-
try. Human chemists can analyze and COM
pound, but they cannot originate or inn
prove on natures methods. No chemist can
take earth, air and water and distill there
from the varied perfumes of mignonette.
heliotrope, tuberose, violet, carnation, etc.
Step into a flower garden one of these even
ings and you shall find the air fairly heavy
with the rich perfumes the different plants
are giving out. Nature is at work. Her
processes are simple. noiseless and mex
pensive, and her materials such as the
human artist could do nothing with. But
they are all she wants, and out OF them
she distills perfumes infinitely more deli
cate. more penetrating and more satisfy
ing than any the perfumer's art can COM
pound. He only aims at perpetuating ma
lures effects. and if he tries to counter
felt her works. it is a poor initiation. The
best he can do Is to distill natures dis
citations and appropriate her properties.

In a magazine article on Literary Chica-
go" a newspaper man is quoted as saying:
II may compare literary Chicago to a
lunch at a gaming table. The player eats
with one hand and draws cards with the
other. Chicago never has supported a man
who did nothing but write books. and 1 see
no indication Of a change" The same
might be said of New York, or Boston, or
Philadelphia, or any other city. Men who
write books live in all these places, but IL
their books are worth having it is the
country at large that buys the works and
SO Imports the authors. The residence city
only does its share. Doubtless Chicago has
contributed a fair proportion to the support
of American authors generally, and If those
within its borders have not received en-
couragement there has probably been good
reason. When a great book produced in
Chicago goes without recognition there it
will be time for complaint.

Probably Vanderbilt and his wife would
have found themselves happy and har-
monious enough had the circumstances Of
their lives compelled the mutual tolerance
of personal faults and the self-sacriices
couples. AS it is. they are too selfish and
too much accustomed to the qualification
of their respective whims TO make conces-
sions to each other, and misery is the IN
evitable consequence. The universal pur-
suit of wealth will not be checked by such
thrown about its possessors is sure to be
so lessened that they are seen in their
true proportions.

Such an accident as that which befell the
street-railroad company on Friday night,
the explosion Of a boiler and temporary
interruption Of power, is really unavoid-
able. and yet the public has a right to
demand that every possible means shall
be used to repair the results as soon as
possible. There will be large crowds here
during the next few days. and visitors az
we'll as citizens will be subjected to great
inconvenience and the managers of some
local enterprises to serious loss unless the
street-railroad service is equal to the &C.
casion. Under the circumstances the man
agement should and doubtless will spare no
expense or effort to furnish frst-class SER
vice at the earliest possible moment.
