The Wilson tariff, says the Washing
ton Post, is giving a good account Of
itself in all quarters. The improve
ment in trade and manufactures is so
marked, the evidences of returning
prosperity are so numerous and con-
vincing that the voice of the crOaher is
no longer heard in the land. Since
last April more than 300 manufactur-
ing establishments have, Of their own
motion, increased the wages of more
than 100000 workmen. There is less
disquiet in labor circles than there has
been at any time during the past ten
years. The iron industry is the best
guage of business. When that is pros
porous all other industries are general
ly in good condition. As an indication
of the effects of the new tariff on this
guage, it Is stated that since January
last, Bessemer pig iron in Pittsburg
has advanced from S1OO6 per ton to
1920; steel billets commanded then
$40 and to-day they market at SIS
60; gray forging bar Is now worth So
S5, and the best refined bar iron has
increased to $2S, an advance of 1886.
The wages of labor in the furnaces and
mills and in the coal region have cor
respondingly advanced.

The dress of any period is always a
matter of interest to women and TO wise
philosophers. The Milanese dress of this
period, before French fashions Invaded 1t,
was fearfully and wonderfully made and
weighty to wear. The women robed
themselves in brocades and silks so solid
and substantial that a dress would last
a lifetime, and sometimes descend from
mother to daughter; such also were the
oats and waistcoats Of the sterner sex,
