SOUND MONEY COLUMN GROWING.

1t is quite probable that after a de-
liberate survey of the election this year
the democratic managers will look
around for some policy to take the
place Of debased money. The sound
money states stand firm. and to them
has been added a number of transmits
sissippi states which gave their cleo
toral vote to Bryan. \ steady drift
away from a beaten party seals its fate.
In all the Bryan states lost in the west
the democrats based their campaign on
free silver, and their change of front
on this question is a serious matter for
democratic leaders. Nor is there any
thing in the business situation to make
them hopeful of depression or panic-a
strange desire, hut one. nevertheless,
that has been prominent in free coin
age plans. Business is tending upward,
not downward. The gold in the treas
ury is at the highest point. and the
government revenues are ample. For
eign trade is more favorable than at
any former time. Our manufactured
articles are in increasing demand
abroad. The new tariff law has met
expectations. Everything points to a
rising tide of prosperity. Calamity
politics is in the last ditch.
What democratic managers must
search for now is a policy. Free silver
has lost the last vestige of its magnet
ism. Some Of the states that voted for
1t have fallen away. The democratic
party is divided on finance. Pointing
to the election Of Tuesday, the demo-
Gratis Of the eastern states, the enemy's

How Miniatures Are Destroyed.

The chief agent in the destruction of
q miniature is perhaps sunlight. The
direct rays of the sun should never be
permitted to fall upon the portrait. and
especially should it be remembered that
the glass Tor crystaD covers to the
miniatures, and the glass of the cabinet
in which they are kept, all help to in
crease the powers of the sunlight and
to give to its feeblest rays ability to ex-
ercise destructive force. Very many
lovely old miniatures have been prac.
tically ruined by light.
Hung upon Il wall or in a case, they
are exposed to full sunlight. and the
carnations quickly fade, the value of
all the colors is reduced and whitened
and the paler and more delicate tints
vanish altogether. If the exigencies of
space demand that II wall opposite a
window (the worst position i'll a room
for miniatures) must be used, then "a
blind or curtain should be supplied to
the cabinet containing the treasures,
and as often as possible the window op.
posite the cabinet should be shrouded,
SO as to prevent the light falling upon
the cabinet and its contents. Portrait
