SOME EFFECTS ABROiD

British trade reports for 1897 give clear evi-
depce that this country has made material prog
ress In relieving itself from dependence upon
foreign industries. 1t Is true that as "'The Lon
don Economist says, Though the United States
tariff acted prejudlc!ally' TO British exporters
OF worsted goods, after II was imposed the
shipments to America for the full year were
"higher In value than for 1896" Prior to Au-
gust shipments TO this country were 80, 276. 800
yards, against 24ll1,700 In the previous year.
but after July the shipments were but 2.73S. 800
yards, against S,sA.Jo0 In 1896 In woollen
goods THE Economist states that shipments
"fell on In value q, compared with 1896 owing
TO restriction vi trade with America on the i'm

than 100000 yards were sent hither instead Of

ALWAYS on Horseback.

When Darwin asked a gaucho Of the
pampas why he did not work, the re-
ply was: 81 cannot, 1 am too poor"
The great naturalist was astonished,
but the reply was perfectly natural
one. The man had no horses, and q
gaucho never worked except on horse
back. On horseback, no matter if sew
enty years of age, he always appeared
young On foot he waddled like an al
ligator. Whether herding sheep or cat
tie, marching, hunting, drawing water
from well, the gaucho was always on
horseback. He even drew a net on
horseback, or churned butter by gallop-
ing about with hide-bag of milk tied
to the end of lasso. On the march
he slept on horseback, never falling off.
In death, too, he was often on horse
back, the sinewy legs maintaining him
seated in the saddle as If in life. The
beggars, what few Of them existed,
begged on horseback, extending a 81
lent hand as you passed by them. In an
alarm at night every one ran to his
horse, and, mounting, was ready for
what might betide. A paternal gov
ernment sentenced murderers, horse
thieves and other miscreants not to
death, but to serve SO many years with
infantry, and miserable enough that
infantry sometimes was.
