for the better was very gradual; the pains
seemed to be less frequent and the swell

using about one bottle. Then improve
ment was more rapid and one night she
surprised us greatly by telling US that we
need not prep her mp in bed as we had
one for several months, and next night
she surprised us still more by rolling
over across the bed. From that time on

she generally uses but one crutch, the dis
ease having left one leg crooked, and fear
it will remain so. We feel that to Hoods

Constitutional ScrofuIa.

The first stop was made at Gibralter,
which was sighted on Monday about nine
p. M, and anchor weighed about eleven.
Landing was made the next day and the
passengers permitted to remain on land for
an hour and a half. Some one has called
Gibralter "England's pet extravaganza" and
1t certainly requires an enormous expendi-
| ture to maintain the large forces stationed
there, even il no improvements were made.
Gibralter, as seen from distance, is simply
a massive rock, absolutely impregnable and
almost unapproachable except on one side.
| was reminded of the line in Tennyson's
"Charge of the Light Brigade:" cannon
to right Of them" etc. Everywhere, high
and low. are pOnderous guns and prodigious
Notifications. l saw no single gun as large
as Krupp's at Chicago, but the number was
legion. The ammunition stored in the vast
vaults would blow the whole rock to atoms.
On the Spanish side is strip of neutral
ground, perhaps One-half mile wide, and
across this unoccupied strip are stationed a
few regiments of Spanish troops. The
English occupation of Gibralter is very gall
ing to the Spanish and it is said that the
commander of the Spanish troops in his
daily report states that the English are
still in temporary possession of Gibralter."
The people on this rock are thoroughly cos
mopoltan, every language is spoken. every
variety of dress visible and all money passes
current. 1t is said thato20 900 people live
on this rock and yet not pound of pro-
visions is used which is not imported.
At the close of the Crimean war Russia
was required to destroy the Notifications
erected on the Black Sea and l cannot

THE FARMERS EGG BASKET.
What the Farmers Have Lost Through
The New Tariff Bill.

American Economist: 1t is some time
since we looked into the farmers egg bas-
ket Then it was well filled with good,
fresh American eggs that sold readily in all
American markets, the competition from
Canada, Europe, China and elsewhere hav-
ing been stopped under the Mckinley tariff.
But we have new tariff now, a German
thrift, which reduced the duty on eggs from
five to three cents dozen. In order to
learn how this is working for the benefit of
imports of eggs since Sept. 1, 1894, few
days after the new bill became law, and
find, from the figures of the Treasury De-
partment, that the imports of eggs compare
as follows:
Four Months, Sept
to Dec. 81.
Value. Dozen.
1874. Sl9y,l33 l,365,O 96
1893 139l7l 1105,40S
Increase .......::........ IS 1852 1858
The new tariff had been i'm effect only
four months when we imported almost &c.,
900 dozen more eggs than during the cor
responding four months OF 1893 The
money loss to the farmers was $29,6 42 in
this short time, which is at the rate of $780,
600 year. This much money distributed
among the farmers wives would come very
handy during these hard times. when even
the treasury has run short and had to buy
gold at high rate of interest. This Cor
man bill is not doing much good for the
farmers in this country, and the Canadians
know it. This is what we find in the Ca
madam Trade Review of Feb. 15
We seem to be getting back our egg market
across the border. Last week ten carloads
were shipped from Montreal to New York. and
realized net profit to the shipper of cents
above what he could get at home. The demand
there is still far from exhausted, and further
supplies from Canadian points Will probably
find rising market This reminds us of old
times. Before the passage of the McKinly act
our egg exports across the border ran into quite
large figures, amounting In 1889 to 14,0l1.0l7
dozen, OF the value of 81 1856, 725. The scent
duty OF that tariff cut down these exports to
the value of S32i, 1855 In the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1893. The present duty is 3 cents "a
dozen rate which should not make IL impos-
sbe to do egg trade of the former magni-
tude with our neighbors.
This German bill seems to be german
dizing every little profit that the farmer
used to make. He has lost money on his
wheat, corn and cotton crops, and now the
Canadian eggs are coming i'm again which
means more eggs in the market. Too many
eggs mean too low prices and no pocket
money for the farmers wife after she has
paid for the chicken feed.
