When the demncrais and populists
started in to reform the tariff they gave
the American people good idea OF that
old expression "a bull in china shop"
and the present condition ot our trade
with Germany is a sample Of their in
competency. Under wise Republican
laws Germany was among our best Gus
toners. She bought annually an aver
age Of s9O,OOO,OOO worta Of our products,
Including 100000 worth of live cattle.
1907 600 Of cotton seed oil, $5l8,OOO OF
canned beef, s524,OOO Of agricultural i'm
pIalnents, $5.OOO,OOO Of Indian corn.
81, 100000 OF bacon, and $a3,500,OOO OF
raw cotton. Germany nov proposes to
cut down this trade Ms much as possible,
and doubtless she will make American
ngricultur,sts and manufacturers suffer
sharply Nothing was ever more stup-
idly and ,houghtlessiy managed than the
tariff bill OF reform recently enacted

a Much-Needed Lesson.

The anniversary of Washington's
birthday recalls to mind fact with re.
gard to his death which is not often
mentioned, and which contains les
son that is much needed by great
many people. On October l2, 1899, the
father OF his country went out on horse
back to ride round his farms-as was
his custom. 1t began to snow, then to
hail, and then to rain. Washington
continued his ride for two hours, and
on his return home sat down to dinner
without changing his clothes The re-
suit was an attack of chills, followed by
acute laryngitis, of which ne died. Many
wise man does very foolish things.
and Washington was only one of mul.
titude of otherwise sensible men who
have sacrificed their lives by carelessly
ignoring the plainest laws of health.
His death should be warning to all
that it is not only unwise, but positive
ly wrong, to take unnecessary risks in
such matters.-N. Y. Witness.

too intent on themselves they would
have missed their hostess few minutes
later. Had the noise been little less

an upstairs window open and detected
scratching sound on the wall of the
house. But had they done so they
would have thought nothing Of IL, nor
did they notice anything amiss when
Lucy came downstairs, flushed but
smiling, and nervously anxious to for
ward any amusement of the party.
Dancing would not begin until after
supper, and some good old fashioned
games had been prepared for the i'm
terim. Then there would be a recess
for costuining and the gathering would
take on an eighteenth century appear
ance.
AS Lucy appeared the games had COM
menced. The postmaster's son stood
on chair holding in his hand little
hatchet.

lie,' he was announcing in a mock

Rapidly the guests were called out
and questioned. The absurd queries
put to them. the references to Jokes
which had attached to their history,
embarrassing confessions as to their
personal likes and dislikes came fast
and kept the audience in constant
laughter.
The quick wit of the leader and his
knowledge of his subjects made the
exercise one of lively amusement to
all, and time after time did he announce
that no worthy successor had been
found for the venerated emblem Of
truth SO closely identified with the ma
tion's history.
suddenly there was sound of heavy
feet without and ring at the door that
lated guest. A halt came to the merri-
ment and all stood in silence while Col.
Dean in person answered the summons.
In response to his greeting an officer
with sword at his side stepped into the
hail. He was in blue and had stern
face.
Again the color fled from Lucy's
cheeks. and she sank back into the cor
ner of a sofa where the shadows made
the expression of her features of little
consequence.
All could hear occasional words in
the low conversation in the hall. Anna
volunteered the suggestion that the of
fcer wanted to make one of the party
and was decidedly in favor of his doing
so.
But the errand was of an entirely
different tenor.

WASHINGTON THOUGHT SO. TOO.
CHA Rr.Es MoREAu HAReER

a Teamster Who Claimed to Have as Good
n Right to the Road as the President.
Despite his great personal dignity.
reserved manners, and his aristocratic
bearing, Washington had warm heart
for the humblest, and. especially after
his revolutionary experiences, a sym
pathy with common folks Besides the
many anecdotes in print and we'll
known, the following, we think. illus
trates strikingly this trait. 1t was first
told by Alfred Ely, d. d., who was. we
believe, an eye and ear witness of the
incident. DR.. Ely was afterwards for
sixty years pastor of the church in Mon
son, Mass, and from his daughter l
have heard it. We quote from "the
written word:"
I'm the autumn of 1850, during WASH
ington's first presidential term, he
made journey to Boston, following
up the west side of the Connecticut
river, and crossing it at Springfield.
He travelled in his English coach drawn
by four horses. with footnen, postil-
lions and outriders.
"As they approached the river in the
town of West Springfield, one of the
outriders galloped ahead and held q
parley with the driver of u londed hay
wagon, to induce him to turn out and
allow Washington's chariot to pass.
He refused to yield an inch of the road,
and the state chariot patiently fol-
lowed the wagon for some distance,
until, at u safe point, it passed by to
the bank of the river.
while waiting for the ferry boat,
Washington stepped out of his coach,
when one of the outriders approached,
and, saluting him deferentially, said,
with an air of injured dignity:
"'Your. excellency, as l was riding
along, a little way back, we overlook
u man with a loaded cart, which occu-
pied the entire road. l asked him to
stop his team, and let us pass; but he
refused / then told him President
Washington was in the coach. He re-
fused again, saying that he had as
good a right to the road as President
Washington
"Washington's laconic' reply was:
And SO he had.'
THE outrider, astonished at this re-
ply, retired in silence"
Comment is needless The essence
of the declaration of independence and
of the constitution of the United
States is in that reply. William f.
