In discussing the new immigration law
some Of our exchanges put the coners
from Russia in the undesirable class.
Such criticisms are undoubtedly elected
through misapprehension Of the facts.
In truth, most Of the immigrants classed

sian Jews" are not Russians at oil. This
county and many other counties In this
part of the state are settled BY immigrants
from Russia. They are, without. excep.

Through the patriotic efforts of Repre-

An exchange complains because the
legislature made Llncoln's Birthday le-
gal holiday, and claims that we have too
many legal holidays. As matter Of
fact, travellers who have gone abroad tell
US that the Americans are the hardest
workers Of any people on earth. and that
our legal holidays are fewer than those
of any other nation. Hats of to Repre-.
sentative Hurley, who got through the
Legislature the great tribute Of respect to
the memory Of our martyred president.

plotting the idea that there 10 no good
reason why newspaper lines should be
made flush at the hind end by showing IN
proportlonate space between the words.
The journal claims that the style here
gwen would be no more offensive to the
eye Of the reader than blank verse is; that
that which Is good enough for an edition
Of Shakespeare is also good enough for q
publication of the ephemersl character
Of newspaper, and that the absolute
equality Of space between the words is
more than recompense for the ragged
appearance of the "off'' side of the type
lines. The Record would like to see this
system come to prevail. 1t would make
the weekly task of the country printer
much easier, as it takes lots of time to
properly space the words. Furthermore.
this plan can be Justly advocated on
moral grounds. The type in great
many country offices is full Of years and
wobble.bottomed from long use. When
such is the case it collapses frequently
while spaces are being inserted between
the words. such accidents occasionally
cause the use of sinful and unparliament.

Head First, Hands Last.

The practice of reading over mental,
composition time and time a. IA can
not be too earnestly recommended. That
mental conception of music which is
everything in playing is frequently to
be obtained only in this way. SO many
players devote 80 much attention to
technic that the most you can say of
their pieces is that they are executed,
not played. Don't take your new piece
to the piano to try it over, but rather
sit down in some quiet corner and 60
over it mentally. Study out its inner
meaning, its conception, its harmonies
and effects. Then go to the piano, and,
with this mental picture wildly photo
graphed on your mind, endeavor,
through the exercise of will power, to
make your fingers perform 1t as you
have conceived it. Your first attempts
will naturally prove unsatisfactory, but
this will be the fault of the hands and
not the brain. 1t will only remain now
to work up the technical parts, to study
the touch and lingering, before you can
say you can play that piece. -Etude.

as foundation for linen'braid tracing
designs filled in with darning and for
