THE PLAIN SEAM.


In these DAYS of advanced education.
when one must have had manual train
ing and have learned how to white
and how TO model. even in the kinder
gartcn, how to shape and design in tho
drift of later teaching. how to speak
various languages, solve severe mathe-
NAUTICAL problems, play intricate SON
atlas, and do all that may become .
woman wishing to be seen to be ac-
complishcd in the eye of the world-in
these days that make sure of all this.
some OF the accomplishments whose
value is felt only in the domestic circle
are entirely ne glectcd. 1t is more than
likely that not one Of the young women
thus instructed could take prize in
county fair for a patch viewlcssly
set in. or for darning SO fine rs TO he
an ornament instead Of the repair Of q
blcmish, as their grcat-aunts use TO do;
yet most Of them can do the most won
derful embroidery in colored silks and
gold and silver threads for table-scarfs
and tray-cloths and the like.
These charming accomplishments Of
theirs are all very well and greatly to
bc desired, but they are rs mere dust
in the balance for usefulness and COM
fort at home if to them has not been
added skill and practice in sewing .
straight seam. in putting in gusset, in
making a button-holc, in tucking and
Telling and hcm-stitch. In reality, tho
art Of plain sewing-for even with
tucking and inserting and edging
the stitches are all those Of
plain sewing--is an absolutely nec-
essary one at the present day
for those who desire very nice under
clothes without paying an immoderate
price for them. The sewing-machine
has not been IN invention Of unmixcd
good, and much of the work il turns
out is fragile. easily ripped. strung
with loose ends, and without always
nicely -turred corners. When its work
is entirely satisfactory 1t Is cxpcnsive'

underwear must either buy the expen-

higher One free trader. with good
memory. refers to the American Econ
omist Of January 4, 1895, as authority
for the statement that the wages OF
machnists are 81 p in Austria, $3.50 in
France. So gs to 81. 81 in German 81. 81
in Italy, S5.55 in the Netherlands.
S. % in Russia, and - i'm Britain. An
other reminds Eli that wages are not
equal in each state. lie says that ac-
cording 10 the census the average
wages OF workers in wooden goods was
-. 80 in Illinois and only Si.5i in Iowa;
S. II in Pennsylvania and only $500 I'm
MARYLAND He finds the same discrep-
ancies in different states between the
wages Of workers in iron, steel. glass.
cotton, silk and all other kinds OF
mills What Is more remarkable, he
tells Eli that those states in which
wages are highest in certain industries
are usually the largest producers IN
these lines. Thus. though wages are
80 per cent. higher in Pennsylvania
than in Maryland, yet Pennsylvania
makes fifty times a. much wooden
goods as Maryland. II is strange that
the Qualxcrs do not go to Maryland 70
buy cheap good,
All Of these suggestions are lost upon
Eli because his ears are still stopped
up and he is busy thinking about more
important matters.
Here is question No. ;: why have
free trade Englapd's average wages
been higher than those of protected
Germany, Italy. Russia and all other
protected countriesy
To which Eli replies: England has
all the tariff for revenue she can have.
but no protection to labor. She can
have tariff on cloth. boots or shoes
or cutlery, because they are cheaper
there than anywhere else. Wages get
lower as we go east. Here are carpen-
tiers wages all over the world: Amer
lea. Sc; England, 81. 80; Belgium. 81;
Germany. IS cents; Austria, 80 cents;
Italy and Hungary, p cents: Turkey.
Is cents: China. cents; Japan, Is
cents. Each low wage country can
manufacture and ship to the next
higher wage country, but not vice
versa. America cannot hope to ship to
Germany till free trade shall reduce
our wages to theirs. This would come
in time with free trade 1t is only
protection that can prolong the dread
full day
An obnoxious free trader writes out
the following on a slip of paper and
hands it To Eli:
Don't you know that American boots
and shoes are the cheapest in the
world and that they are sold in En-
gland? iou now tell us that wages
get lower as we go east and that car
pentcrs' wages are 81. so in England, q
cents in Germany and rs cents in Italy
Didn't YOU tell us in your answer &c
No. 3 that wages are all low alike IN
European nations? Do nottaritf walls
get higher and closer as we go east,
DO not the low-tarin and high-vag'
countries of the west ship more r.anu
featured goods east than west? Di'
YOU intend to give US facts or mere
theories? What did you mean whcr
you said that it is only protection tina
can prolong the dreadful day? Die
YOU really intend TO tell the truth TO
once or were YOU. as usual. 'talAin;

: But Eli tore up the slip of pape
'. without reading it lie knew from tn
looks of the man that he had not beei
converted to the great American polio.

Special 10 the Register.
washington, Pa, September IA
strong effort is being made here to Sc
cure The pardon Of John Briceland, who
nearly a quarter Of a century ago was
sentenced to the pen:tentiary for life,
for the murder Of John Allenham. The
crime for which Briceland was sen
fenced was committed December 6,
1872. Briceland was a blacksmith and,
becoming angered at Allenham over
some trlfe. ne deliberately planned to
hin him. Securing a piece Of gas pipe
me plugged up one end of it and made 4
rough cannon, which he filled with
slugs. Placing this machine on the
window sill of the room where his VIC
tim was sleeping, he pointed it at him
and applied a match. Allenham never
knew what struck him and was killed
instantly.
Briceland was seen recently at the
penitentiary and in spite of his twenty
three years Imprisonment seems in ex-
,cellent health and spirits. He is 50
years Of age and is said TO have spent
more years in the institution than any
other prisoner now confined in the pen
tent.ary.
