CAUSES OF PROSPERITY.
The Robber Tnrin Is Not One Among
 Them.

Them.
 There are evidences of renewed pros perity. No one will deny that. No one has the least inclination to deny it. Everyone has reason to rejoice over the indications of better times and to sing with fervor "hard times come again no more." The bank clearings show great gains over last year at this time. The commercial agencies agree in reporting greater activity in both trade and man. ufacturing, and there seems to be no reason to doubt that the number of the involuntarily idle has been largely reduced.
 For al this and for the promise of still better things to come every right-mind- ed man is glad. At the same time every such man is sorry 10 see all the organs and attorneys of monopoly ascribing all the praise to tariff bill. This is as bad as it was for the Jews of old to give praise to idols for the bless ings they enjoyed. The Jews knew bet ter. The American people ought to know better than to make thank of ferings to the tariff fetich.
 The fact that Europe is 1,625,000, ,0o0 bushels short of food crops while we have good crop of small grains and the prospect of a good crop of corn and an unprecedented crop of cotton ex- plains ii all. The food shortage makes high prices for our food products and like cause bids fair to give us more than average prices for cotton. Hence high prices for the farmers, greater demand for manufactures and bustling activ- ity in trade.
 To ascribe it all to the tariff robbery is most abominable idolatry. Pros perity is returning, for the time being at least, not because of, but in spite of, that robbery. The processes of nature have been favorable to this country, and for that reason the masses of the peo- pie can stand the robbery better than they otherwise could. Because nature has favored them, they can see the stock of the sugar monopoly put up from 10S to 15o by republican legislation and not make any complaint.
 The attention of those who give all the glory to the monopoly tariff is in- vited to two facts. One is that the receipts into the national treasury have been $25, 100000 less than the expendi- lures since the passage or the Dingley bill, or at the rate of $152, 100000 a year. Not long ago they were telling us that times were hard because the expenditures of the government ex- ceeded the receipts. Now they are vo- ciferously claiming that the country is on high wave of prosperity though the excess of expenditures is greater than ever.
 The other fact is that the commercial agencies attribute the strong market for southern iron to the active export movement. Our worshipers of the pro lection fetch will hardly venture to attribute the active export of Ameri- can iron to their high duty on foreign iron. These and many other facts prove that they are economic quacks and humbugs and that their legislation does not cause prosperity any more than it causes the tides or the sun spots.-Chicago Chronicle.

"You do not wish to die and leave your boy?" said.
 Il would not leave himl He would go with mel" she said, with quiet convic- tion.
 And we knew it would be so. There was nothing to build health upon, the doctor told us, and Ellen faded away, not quickly, but surely.
 But, lying upon her deathbed, day after day, she was intensely happy, net with the fitful flame of old, but with . calm. deep joy infinitely pathetic to witness.
 Basil loves mel"
 That was the keynote to her happi- ness. He had never failed in gentleness, but, replizing that he must soon lose hers,hisa love came back to comfort her. He, couf not have deceived her, weak as she yAps. sOnly the true love she had lost, the NlovA that was her life, could have answered the hunger of her heart. And Basil gave fl, kissing her with his heart, as she told me, gently smoothing the dark road she was treading by every loving device, seldom leaving her, and never for any length of time.
 He was holding the puny babe in his arms, close to the mothers white. wasted face, when the boy shiyered gasped and died. l looked in terror al Ellen, but she smiled into my eyes: He will wait for mel" she said. soft ly, and nestled against Basil, as I took the little one away.
 did not return for a long time. When did Ellen's eyes were closed, and her face had changed, with a change that chilled my heart.
 "She is asleep" whispered.
 But will never wakeni" Basil said solemnly, and even before he spoke I knew the truth.
 Basil mourned truly, blaming him. self bitterly, when held him blameless. But he married again in two years, and lives in his own home in the city. I could not let his wife come to Stony Hill in Ellen's place, though she is kindly welcome when she visits me.
 She is lady, refined, educated and very handsome.

MAKES HIGHER PRICES
one of the Direct Enect. of the nins-
 ley Law.
PUSHES UP PRICES.

PUSHES UT PHlCES.
 While the glass men are hesita tinw whether to increase the price of window glass ten or fifteen per cent, the crockery dealers have promptly put their prices up 20 per cent. so that there would be no mis- take about it. They have done this te meet the increase In the Dingiey bill. Al present this chiefly concerns the EnS..sa imported ware. but the American manu- facturer is preparing to make similar ad. vsnces. But as we are told that the for- eigners pay all this increase the consumer in this country need not wofry.-Chicaxe Chronicle.
 This is the protection that is said ts have the power to open the m.lls. Con- sumption has been down to low water mark because so many of our people have been unable to do more than pro- vide themselves with the bare neces- saries of life, many more being unable to do even as much as that, and 1t is expected that the raising of prices will serve to improve conditions by increas- ing consumption. The raising of prices does not increase consumption as a reg ular business. but perhaps it will mako an exception once in way.
 The manufacturers may put up their prices, but unless their products are bought up and consumed. the advance in prices will have no beneficial infiu- ence on labor. It is going to cost . good deal for bread presently, and glassware and crockery and such things will be compelled to take back seat, and this seat will necessarily be a little farther back because of the in- creased prices of those products. If those manufacturers who did not pay the increased duties of the Dingley law would play fair with the consumers of the country, there would be better prospect of prosperity that could be called general. The farmers appear to have some reason to rejoice. but where may the workingmen in general lines reasonably expect to come in? As the Utica Observer says:
 Flour is going up sugar Is going up: clothing is going up; crockery is going up; leather Is going up: everything is going up but the wages of the employees in protected industries. And yet these employees were distinctly told by no less person than Chairman Dingley him. self that their purchasing power would be increased On the contrary, 1t 10 diminished"
 The prosperity of the crops we have with us; the prosperity of Dingleyism that was promised us we have still to get. Hurry it up!-Binghamton (N. " Leader

Evils of Jealousy.

The physicians say that the enter tainment of jealousy really has dis organizing effect upon the body, and certainly it is disturbing to the mind A jealous woman may have been as lovely as a May morning, but jealousy upsets her. Jealousy guarantees bill iousness. Billiousness makes bad tenn ter, cross words. These, too, are dis turbing to the cook, and she sends bad food to the table. The man can't eat it, and his business goes wrong all day. A jealous, bilious woman is bad mother. She upsets the children, and money has to be paid out for medicine for them. Domestic jealousy becomes in time very dangerous. Professional or business jealousy kills. The woman who whispers convenient detrimental word about an associate into the ear of her patron or employer may benefit for a day. In the end he concludes she is untrustworthy.

that threatened total annihilation to my nerves until l became accustomed to it.
 You are ashamed of mel" she cried. You are! You are!"
 "Ellen!" he said, gently, his face flushing; "I can never be ashamed of my wife!"
 He kissed her gravely and went out. but she tore up and down the room like a caged bird
 He is ashamed of me-he isl" she repeated, angry tears raining over her hot cheeks. "I saw it on the cars. saw it at the hotels. see it here. How did l know he would be? He said he loved me, and I-I would have died for him! He praised me-he put me in his pictures! He asked me to be his wife! was all alone, and loved him, l married him, but he never asked me what l knew-what l could do. He saw the log cabin where my mother lay dead! He knew the soldiers burned down our house, killed my fatherl was too young to know the horror of iti l am only 16 now. Then when we were married and went to the city, he was ashamed because he asked me to read the newspaper one morning and never learned to read. Why didn't he ask me before we were married2 He told me l must not eat with my knife, or wipe my fingers on 6ydress. Why didn't he tell me before we were married Why didn't he go awaysapd leave me :? l would have killed nyselfl had rather kill myself than know he is askaaned of mel"
 Al this was poured out with such rapsl utterance l could not interrupt her by one word, and I might as well have tried to catch butterfly as to touch her as she paced up and down.
 And now l set his teeth on edge! | was not listening. I heard him as I came in. never bought things before. They told me at the stores what to buy. and all they showed me were pretty. Why did he not come, too, and tell me l hate him! 0h-l love him! l love him, and he is ashamed of mel"
 She was gleeful as child when Basil praised her dress at tea time, having, at my suggestion, worn a soft, white null with scarlet flashing in her jetty braids at her throat and belt. She pouted little, because 1 would not allow but one bright color, but was obedient.
 But after that, watching them both. l knew there could be no happiness in the nasty marriage. The glamour was gone from Basil's eyes, and he was ashamed of his wife. His love cooled.
