An Englishman recently in Paris
had bought several things in large

repeated between each purchase most
impertinent.
The last thing he bought was a
pocket handkerchief, and the shopman
most blandly asked: And with that?"
This proved too much for the exas-
perated Briton. who angrily replied:
"And with that, pointing to the hand
kerchief: II blow my nose, you block

There were two reasons why the oily
stranger did not continue. One was
that he had sold cigars to the same man

Who Gets That other $40?

To the Editor:
In a letter printed In 1.-THE Evening World
several days since Mr.. Benjamin Doblin, citing
the claim OF a certain protectionist that printers
In this country earn SIS per week. while In
England they receive only IS, asked: "who gets
the direrenceT" Before trying to answer this
question, I Will remark that great as is the
discrepancy here shown. there is greater as be-
tween the wages OF printers in different parts OF
our own beloved and betaSed country-nay. right
In New York State wages OF printers vary from
100 to 900 per cent. going as low as IS and $40
In small towns, and as high as $50 In New York
City. In light OF this fact, how absurd II
seems to give to protectionism the credit OF the
higher average wages paid to printers In this
country. This craft, OF all others. is the last
In need OF protection, and least susceptible to 1t.
VIII some protectionist tell me why It is that In
free trade 81 England printers got higher wages
than In any other European country, all OF which
are highly protected Now. in answer to Mr..
