tor has expended upwards of S300,OOO in
advertising his packages, that reason
is not hard TO find.
We have then the case of a manu-
facturer who is careful always to sell
its goods as it's own, but who puts them
up in style of package So similar to
that used by one of its competitors,
earlier in the market that unscrupulous
dealers who purchase from the manu-
facturer in order to sell at retail to con-
sumers are enabled to delude a large
number Of such retail purchasers by
palming off upon them the goods of the
manufacturer as those of its competitor.
That this is unfair competition seems
apparent, both on reason and authority.
Since Gold Dust Washing Powder
has held its own in every market as the
best cleansing compound made for all
purposes. there has been the necessity
for The n. X. Fadrbank Company to
protect themselves and their patrons
from numerous fraudulent limitations,
and though imitation is the tribute paid
to success, in this case the housekeepers
would be the sufferers if the tribute
were not disdained. The Fairbank
"Darky Twins on the Gold Dust"
package are as familiar to the average
housewife as the face of the family
clock.

day last relates the following story of
a hunters experience with one of these
aquatic monsters down there recently:
Lloyd Eaton had a terrible adyen-
tuce with an octopus on Sherman ISL
and last Sunday Lloyd was wading
out to his blind, when he suddenly felt
something grab his right rubber boot.
The suction was so strong that he felt
himself being slowly but surely swal-
lowed. In desperation he made vio-
lent effort to free himself, and drawing
his bowie-knifa reached down and
slashed away at the clinging tentacles.
1T was none too soon, for already
half his rubber boot had been digested
by the monster, which was nothing less
than a huge octopus, larger even than
the mind of our late Mayor could even
imagine. The several tentacles were
at least three yards long and a foot In
girth Eaton was SO pleased to escape
with his life that he did not wait to
see what became of the octopus. He is
out one rubber boot and had an expert
ence he does not care to repeat.
Some Of his friends pretend to doubt
this story, but as the Antioch whisky
never gets beyond snakes no just cause
can be found for even the suggestion
of doubt as to the truth of the story"

Judge Lacombe in handing down his
decision sounded q warning to imitators
in teresly stated facts which have equal
interest for the housekeepers, manufac-
turers and business men generally. He
said:
THE Judge who heard the case in the
Circuit Court was strong in the conVlc-
ton that there was not similarity cal
cuIated to deceive any buyer of ordinary
prudence; that there was no danger OF
imposition by any similarity between
the packages. We are unable to reach
the same conclusion. When

of the package which contains them it
is quite conceivable that a dishonest re-
tail dealer who kept compfainant's and
defendants packages mingled together
on the same shelves, might easily palm
off the one for the other upon an un-
suspecting purchaser.
Business men Of ordinary acuteness
who wish to establish distinctive repu-
tation for their goods with the general
public certainly do not begin by assim-
ilating the elements of their design &c
those Of some one competing manufac-
turer When they are found doing this
1t must be assumed that for some reason
or other they prefer to have their gpods

SUNDAY and Sabbath.

Eds. Record Union:" Permit me to
| correct an impression which is to some
extent abroad to the effect that there
is a wide distinction between a Sabbath
law and a Sunday law. The primeval
Sabbath appears to have been prosti-
tuted to sun worship in the great Sa-
bean idolaitry The Hebrews, in their
wonderful history, had become sun wor-
shippers in Egypt AT the time of the
EXcde God, in order to bring them at
cnce out of bondage and out OF ido,atry,
gave them new calendar, with the
seventh month of the Egyptian secular
year for the first month of their sacred
year, with a new Sabbath to commem-
crate events in their history which
could have no special claims upon the
comnJemoration of any other people.
But the perverted primeval Sabbath,
which had become the Sunday, attend
ed their career as d conspicuous day
characterized by most significant and
important rites, under the desig-
nation of 'the morrow of afterl
in the tomb of Joseph through the He
brew Sabbath, and rose from the dead
on the morrow of the Sabbath, which
day the Evangelists and Paul invaria-
bly, call the first OF Sabbaths' except
in the single instance where St. John
calls it the Lords day" When, in the
sixteenth of Exodus, God says, Il have
given you the Sabbath, ," the article the"
should have been rendered "a, as in the
Hebrew it is the same in form. and the
context is decisive of the query whether
it should be used definitely or indef
nitely, and the context clearly requires
that it should have been rendered in
definitely.
On a suitable occasion l should be
very ready to argue the case on religi-
Gus and historic grounds; but inasmuch
as our Government does not commit
authority over spiritual things to the
| Legislature, and the great body of the
| American people have recognized the
| Christian Sabbath or Sunday as day
| Of respite from toll, and forty-three
States demand it's observance as a pO-
| lice or prudential measure there is no
| need or pertinancy in forcing the re-
| ligiOus question into the discussion. My
| sole object is to correct a fugitive no
ton that the Sunday law and q Sab
bath law, in American usage, mean diff
ferent things, This / do with perfect
| respect toward our excellent Jewish
| and Saturday Sabbath fellow citizens.
| If the day generally and legally recog-
nized as rest day had been Thursday
| or Tuesday, the course of argument
| for a Legislative enactment would
have been substantially the same.

Admiral Bunce's squadron had a

alue to the officers and crews Of these
engines Of war. That none of the ships
were lost proves at least that they are
seaworthy and capable Of navigating
upon a dangerous coast in the teeth OF
terrific gales. To such conditions any
war ship Is liable, and officers and

how to handle such great masses OF
steel and battle armor in such cases.

We have never been able to under
stand why, when a county resolves to
build bridge, it should not direct the
plans to be drawn expressing gener
ally the character of work needed, and
then call for bids for all classes Of
bridges the construction to accomplish
the object set out in the call. But TO
this bridge builders have hotly OBJ
jected before the Legislature. They
made their protest vociferously loud the
other day before a House committee.
They wish the law TO stand as it is,
which carries with every bid a separ-
ate line Of plans and specifications. If
the Supervisors accept the lower bid,
that of necessity carries with It the
adoption of the plans accompanying
It, But il would seem, especially in
the light Of experience in the letting Of
contracts for bridge work, that the
same course should be pursued that is
employed in the erection of public
buildings. In such cases the county
decides what it wants and orders its
general scheme outlined, or It adopts
specific plans and then calls for bids.
