The Deadly Candy Bar.

There is an immense amount of non-
sense uttered in the guise of scientific
advice, and nothing more thoroughly
foolish than the perpetual attacks up
on candy and confectionery, says
Margherita A1lina Hamm. The argu-
ments are the same rs those employed
fifty years ago, when two-thirds of the
bonbons of the market were made with
terra alba and other denominations. AT
the present there is scarcely pound
of candy in the market that is not pure
and wholesome. Good candy in mod.
GRAFTON is heathful aud nutritious.
The desert Arabs of Africa use as their
chief article of diet the dried dates,
which are SO rich in sugar as to be al

men in the world.
Every child who is healthy Graves

Pulitzer for Protection.

We are pleased to note that the New
York World Is beginning to realize
the necessity for protection in the
United States. Referring to recent
matrimonial events, it said:
"But is it not about time that we
should take steps for future protec-
ton? How far is this thing to go?
How much of the wealth of the coun-
try is in the hands of our heiresses?
How many noblemen are there in
Europe with genuine titles but with
limited means? How much of our
wealth will be left after all these
noblemen have discovered the oppor-
tunity offered them by our titie-wor-
Shipping society?"
If the World is afraid that the
wealth of our heiresses will leave us
through matrimonial alliances and
thinks that it is "about time that we
should take steps for future protec.
tion," what about the bank accounts
OF our business men and of our wage
earners-those who endeavor to put by
some little savings as the result of
their toll and industry? Are they not
equally as much entitled to "future
protection?" Why should the wage
earners, whom the World always pro-
fesses to befriend, be deprived of
portion, if not all, of their earnings
through the foreign alliances aud en-
tanglements entered upon by our un-
American administration, which the
World helped to elect, for tho benefit
of foreign labor, of foreign manufac-
turers and of foreign industries? 1t
is time that the World began to look
after the welfare Of the masses of our
people more materially than by Civ
ing them free bread. 1t should not
merely develop into "title Worship
ing" sheet. seeking only "for future
protection" for the bank accounts of
American heiresses, but it should be
careful OF the smaller bank accounts
of the wives and daughters of labor.

Farmers Are Interested.

Mr.. David Bingham. the veteran
grain exporter, said that the grain ex-
port trade was in about the same con-
dition as year ago, and that was un-
satisfactory, and promised to remain
so, with little prospect of improve
ment this crop year either in demand
or prices. Mr.. H. O. Armour, whose
concern is recognized as the largest
packers in the country and does the
largest domestic trade in hog as we'll
as beef products, said that trade is not
as good, has not been and does not
promise to be as good as last year,
owing to the general industrial and
agricultural depression and the conse-
quent inability of laboring people and
farmers to buy the usual amount Of
goods in their line, of which consump-
ton is less than during the panic year
of 1893. New York Journal Of Com

things English and things Scotch. His
