case the Supreme court decided the State law void as being "an interfer- ence with interstate commerce, and that the State of Pennsylvania cannot pass law forbidding the sale in that State of an article of commerce manu- factured in another State"
 The chief contention of the counsel for the plaintiffs in these cases, which may be taken as defining the position of the manufacturers of oleomargarine with reference to antagonistic legisla- tion in other States, was that the so- called oleomargarine acts are unconsti- tutional because they conflict with the exclusive power of congress to regulate commerce among the States.

far back as any in Egypt. We have also a great amount of Accadian and Assyrian historical and other litera- ture on tablets and cylinders aof clay. and on the walls of the great palaces and temples As in the case of Egypt, the discoveries of the remotest age are those which have been most recently published. Dr. Peters has just given us the records of the explorations of the American Oriental society at Nip pur, and describes the successive lay CTS of the great temple of Bel. These appear to indicate the absence of met al in very remote periods. The oldest specimens are those recently found by M. De Sarzec at Tello Nagash), in Southern Chaldaea. They consist of spear, an adze and curved hatchet, all of copper without tin, according to M. Berthelot's analysis. A small vase Of antimony and a large one of silver have also been found. The period of these is supposed to be some consider able time anterior to B. c. 2500.
 At Tel el Sifr, in the same neighbor- hood, MT. Loftus discovered a large copper factory, in which were caldrons, vases, hammers, hatchets, links of chain, ingots and great weight of copper dross, together with a piece of lead. The date of these is believed to be about B. C. 1500. At Nippur the American explorers found at a higher level, in the temple of Bel, what they term a jewellers shop, which consisted of box full of jewelry, mainly pre- cious stones, but also containing some gold and copper nails; these apparent ly date from about B. c. 1900. In Baby lonian graves and other places of about the same period there have been found objects made of copper and iron and silver wire; but the use of metals seems much more restricted in these great alluvial plains than in contempo- rary Egypt.
 In tracing back the history of these great nations we have found evidence
 of time when metals were little, if at all employed; the potter's art was well known, and early man became wonder 1 fully proficient in working hard stone, | and especially flint. The earliest indi- | cations we have of metals are of gold | and copper, both being scarce. and no l doubt costly.-From a Lecture by Dr. | J. H. Gladstone in London.

ARE THEY LEARNING2

Is 1t possible that the Spaniards are learning something and that Spanish honor is taking a reasonable place in the procession? The Madrid corre- spondent of the London Times says: "The dominant note of public opinion here Gin Madrid) is desire to find some way 60 honorable peace, as Spain has nothing to gain by an indefinite prolongation of hostillties." This re- port is entitled to credence The Span iards could undoubtedly get an honora- ble peace if they would hunt for it sen sibly and honorably. They could not get 1t now by continuing to talk about American aggression" Yankee pigs, !" Spanish honor" etc., etc. They would have to acknowledge the hopelessness of their resistance, and they would have to pay a fair price for their folly. Included in this would, of course, be the abandonment of Cuba by them.
 The longer the Spaniards put off ac- tive and sensible efforts for honorable peace the more trouble and loss they will have. The United States is just waking up, and peace talk isn't very popular here now. The army and the navy are eager to be at work, and the people are solidly and sternly behind them. Spain has made a big mistake, and the longer it is persisted in the bigger it will be.

4 SPORADIC BoY ANGEL.

As these are ''war times'' 1t will not strange things that happen. But some thing which has happened in the town of Barker, New York, is worth passing notice. It appears that in, that town a boy baby has been born, and that the boy baby differs from other boy babies in having wings attached to his shoul- der-blades.
 The little angel! The little boy an- gel! Of course it wouldn't have been very surprising if a girl baby had been born with wings in Barker, New York, or anywhere else. It is always sur prising that girls of any age and all ages do not have wings. Probably the only reason they do not is that if they had them they would fly away to the other angels who do have wings and leave the male part of the human race to it's lonely fate. Their lack of wings keeps them on earth and makes of earth a heaven, according to the plan.
 The Barker boy angel is said to be in good health and not "inconvenienced" by his wings. We hope he never will be inconvenienced by them and that he will be as wingy in heaven as he is on earth. We hear that his mother claims and is given credit for the wings, which is entirely proper and just The father can only look on in silent wonder.
 This boy angel furnishes no encour- agement to the rest of the boys and no promise for their successors. He is sporadic and never would have been boy angel if he hadn't had mother.

better to have the pretty tasteful thing that you can afford than the more at tractive thing that you cannot afford. But, all the same, you may as well con fess to yourself that silk is nicer than lawn any day, and that you will have silk if you can afford it. There are several substitutes on the market for silk It is claimed for them that they wear better and are as rustly and look just the same as silk. That must be lovely if it is only true, to experiment. with a gown that you count much upon will be a risk.
 The figured organdie pictured here was made over silk, in the skirt, both organdie and lining being of the shade called lizard green. Over the silk in the bodice was black spangled tulle. It had deep yoke of cream guipure and a vest of cream chiffon. The yoke was bordered with a band of black jet ga- loon, and a lace jabot hung from the turquoise satin collar, the same satin being used for the belt. The sleeves were of the organdie.
 Whether these substitutes for silk as lining are to be really successful or not, it is pleasant to see the attempt made. Now that the drop skirt is in vogue, and that the bodice silk lining must be complete, the matter of Things is more an expense than ever, so it is only fair that slim pocketbooks should have some let-up. But greater relief is afforded than substitution. It is in the current favor for unlined skirts, which greatly reduce the trouble and expense of dressmaking. A nuns yelling frock, with unlined skirt run with few rows of quilled ribbon, and a little bloused waist cut down at the neck, makes a pretty and inexpensive home gown.

AN dID TO FAITH.

Tn the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seven- teenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the deep brok- en up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights"
 We call attention to this quotation from the bible for the encouragement of our wet and depressed readers. The earth for more than forty days and forty nights. The windows of heaven have been opened, and there has been a very large and continuous volume of water running over the window sills and stopping down on the just and the unjust. But the fountains of the deep have not been broken up, and the Wy andotte has not been drowned. There has not been sun enough lately to make ''the bow of promise" but it is not yet time to lose faith As long as the foun- tains of the deep don't spout on us we can feel reasonably safe, even if the windows of heaven are kept open. And if the thing that has been so long con- tinues so much longer that faith loses it's grip we can then fall back on "the higher criticism,' and bet that there never was a flood.
 Brace up, then, dear fellow sufferers and fellow sinners. It's always darkest just before day, it never rains but it pours, and rain is good for grass, which all flesh is. Let us sing as we slop along and keep a hopeful eye on the good weather for corn which will fol- low this good weather for grass.

F.ISIIION NOTES.
Relief in the Lining Question.

It is true that colored lawns and dim- ities are used instead of silk for lining gowns of organdie and other transpar- ent materials. It is to be argued that a dress so lined is much cooler and lighter than one made on silk, also it may be claimed that the scrunch of silk is not artistic, that the lawn is just as good and-here we come to it!-a great deal cheaper. The last is indeed true, and if you cannot afford silk lining, then content yourself that the color eff
 feet of your gown may be as pretty with lawn lining, that the dress will surely be as cool, and that it is much

OLEOMA RHA RTNB ENCOURAGED.

The decision of the United States Su- preme court in cases involving the va lidity of the laws affecting the sale and manufacture of oleomargarine in Penn sylvania and New Hampshire is apt to have far reaching effect upon the status of this industry in other States.
 The New Hampshire law requires that oleomargarine shall be colored pink and shall be correctly labeled, while the Pennsylvania law prohibits the sale of the article altogether. The Pennsylvania law is no more prohibi- tive than the New Hampshire law, however, for no one will buy pink but ter. In the case involving the New Hampshire statute the defendant had been convicted in all the State courts of selling oleomargarine which was not colored pink and was heavily fined. In this case the Supreme court decided the action of the State courts to be "an un- warranted interference with interstate commerce in the sale of a legitimate food product" In the Pennsylvania
