The OREGON Ant.

This article does not relate to the
sister of your father or mother. 1t
is about the ordinary, everyday ant
which Biblical lore says is busy
creature, being ever at work. One
of our readers, a man of we'll known
veracity, says that they display a
wonderful knowledge of medicine
as well.
A few days since this gentleman
and his wife were out in the woods
peeling chittim. While thus en-
gagged they discovered large chit
tim tree and at once pounced upon
it to strip from it its outer coat.
But they soon pounce1 off again.
Black ants made it too tropical and
they soon withdrew in good order,
10 evolve new plans of procedure.
In fact they were "objected" out of
court, and so carefully studied the
actions of their busy opponents,
whose large, cone-shaped abode
nestled among the roots near the
aforesaid chittim tree.
What do you suppose these ants
were doing? They were apparently
chasing up and down that tree in
great haste, with no object in view,
but a more minute inspection
brought to light the fact that each
homeward bound member of this
busy colony bore a neatly rolled
chlttim pill, to be stored away for
the future cleansing of all over
worked lives in the colony, thus
proving beyond doubt that they
understand and highly value the
medicinal quality of cascara sa-
grada.
Our informant is now closely
watching these busy and sagacious
insects in hopes of hearing one
cough and by close observance find
ing their cure for consumption.

is 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Pat
ent Medicines?


From Sylvan Valley News, Breyard. NC
1t may be question whether the
editor of a newspaper has the right
to publicly recommend any of the
various proprietary medicines which
Hood the market, yet as a preven-
tive of suffering we feel it a duty to
say good word for Chamberlain S
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. We have known and
used this medicine in our family
tor twenty years and have always
found it reliable. In many cases
dose of this remedy would save
hours of suffering while a physician
is awaited. We do not believe in
depending implicitly on any medi-
cine tor a cure, but we do believe
that if bottle of Cham berlain's
Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on
hand aud administered at the
inception of an attack much suf-
tering might be avoided and in
very many cases the presence of a
physician would not be required.
At least this has been our experi-
ence during the past twenty wears.

Tin Plate and the Tariff.

The most conspicuous example
OF trust-ot. more strictly speak
ing, an industrial monopoly-that
Is cited as a creature of the tariff is
the tinplate combination. Since
1890, as direct result of policy
incorporated in the Mckinley tariff
of that year, there has been built in
the United States scores, if not
hundreds, of mills for the manufac-
ture OF tin plate, an article that had
previously been imported from
Europe. 1t is an excellent thing
for this country, which is much
larger consumer of tin plate than
any other country, to manufacture
It's own supply. To say that the
tariff created the American tim
plate trust is not quite fair state
ment without explanation. What
the tariff did was to make it worth
while for American capital to invest
III a new line of business, and for a
certain amount of foreign capital to
transfer itself to this country in
order to continue in the tin plate
industry. There resulted a great
number of mills, and they have
now found it to their advantage TO
combine and control the American
n-plate business as a monopoly.
According to the old theory of
American proteCtionists, domestic
competition in protected industries
could always be relied upon to give
the consumes every possible benefit.
But competition is fast disappearing
before the growth of a more power
tul principle. 1t will be strongly
urged that the import duty on
foreign tin plates should be wholly
repealed in order that the domestic
monopoly may feel the pressure of
outside competition. The fact that
trust has been formed does not in
any manner prove that it was
mistake to foster the tin-plate in
dustry. The trust would, how
ever, seem to indicate the fact that
the tin-plate industry has reached
maturity at an unexpectedly early
date, and that it has no further
claim, as an infant industry"
upon legislative favors. it must
not be supposed that the repeal of
the tin-plate tariff would shatter the
combination 1t would, undoubt-
edly, for while reduce its profits, |
but the trust would be all the more
hrmly Knit together. For under /
such conditions there would be no
possible chance to develop indie
pendent rival concerns. There
would probably ensue for a while
vigorous warfare between the
American tiu-plate trust and the
organization of British tin-pla,e
manufacturers. But Just as the
competitive system had been ahan-
doned because Improbable in the
domestic field, even so the COM /
petitive warfare on The larger inter /
national plane would in due time
be abandoned in favor of agree
ments for the maintenance of prices
and the division of territory

GLASS;,

A change from old methods is that
of fashioning glass by machine pres
sure instead of molding by blowing.
In the pressed glass the articles are
either made by hand or machine pres
sure, and this innovation has done
much toward making glass articles
much cheaper than formerly.
Only in the last two years have
there been changes in the method of
glassmaking. From time immemorial
the materials used have been melted
in a large pot, the modern ones hold
ing from 1000 to 1900 pounds of glass,
a number of these pots being heated in
one furnace. At present in some of the
new establishments these pots have
been replaced by huge tanks or rec
tangular boxes of masonry holding as
much as 400 tons of the molten glass.
Attention was recently called to the
proposed use of glass brick in build
ing. 1t is now said that the govern
ment of Switzerland has approved the
use of glass for making weights to
be employed with balance scales. A
peculiarly tough kind of glass is to
be selected for this purpose. From
England comes the suggestion that
glass would be better and more lasting
material than stone for making monu-
ment which are exposed to the wear
ing action of the weather.
No industry except that of cloth
manufacturers has contributed so
much to the comfort and advancement
of man as that of glassmaking, which
is n of the Oldest of technical indus
tries. It's earliest home was Egypt.
The British museum has a lions head
of glass bearing ~hieroglyphics fixing
the date at 2,400 years before Christ.
The most ancient glass has necessar-
lily the same component parts as that
of today, and the processes used seem
to have been similar in all times.

FAVORITE DISHES.

The blood pudding is a relic from
the siege of Paris and is made from the
blood of beeves or horses; it is dark
er and heavier than the blutwurst of
the Germans and the taste for it must
be cultivated, there being nothing of
an appetizing or agreeable nature in it
to the uninitiated.
The Swedish and Norwegians import
a small cabbage, a seaweed much like
the Irish article, and two or three
kinds of bread. OF the latter, one is
like the German pumpernickel, the
second is like the %unleavened bread
which lie Jews call matzoth, and n
third seems to be a hybrid between the
two. Toasted and served with milk,
cream OIL butter, they make an en-
joyable dish.
Our neighbors from France insist
upon having picked coxcomb and,
blood pudding. The former is a bril-
liant dish, the animal tissue, and not
the flower, being the article used. It is
sometimes partially cooked, but more
often is put up raw, picked and highly
spiced. To the unsuspecting American
who partakes of it for the first time
the impression is conveyed of a tough
piece Of poorly favored leather.

WOOL GOTTEN FROM TREES.
New Industry About to Be Launched In
the State of Orepon. d

New Industry About to Be Launched In
the State of Oregon.
From the San Francisco Examiner
Most men would as % think Of
gathering figs off thistles as wool Off
pine trees, yet that is just what the
promoters of a new Oregon industry
proposes to do. Mr.. and Mrs. D. A.
Cords are establishing a plant at
Grants Pass for the manufacture of
pine needles into a fabric very like
wooden cloth. There is nothing new
in this industry. 1t has been carried
on in Europe for years, but never be-
fore has it occurred to anyone that in
the forests of Oregon is better ma
terial and more of it for the manufac-
ture OF pine wool than any place in
the world. Mr.. and Mrs. Cords are en-
thuslasts, but are practical minded
Withal, and do not purpose to start in
on too large a scale. They intend first
to make material of the consistency OF
excelsior for mattresses, after that
they will manufacture the cotton
which is used for underclothing, band
ages n other purposes where a. soft
and pliable fabric is required. Only
he inner fabric of the needles can be
used for the latter, and the process is
expensive, but no more so than that
OF the manufacture of lambs wool.
Mrs. Cords is familiar with the process
of manufacturing fabrics from pine
needles in Germany and France. and
in a visit to Oregon something more
than a year ago it occurred to her that
the pine trees here were better shifted
to the purposes of manufacture than
those OF the continent. A little inves-
tigation convinced her that it would
be worth while to try the experiment,
and, with the assistance of her bus-
band, she started a small factory at
Grants Pass. Machinery of the prop
er kind waH not to be had, and it was
necessary to send to Europe for if.
This caused a delay, and when the ma,
chinery arrived it proved useless.

WOMAN HORSE BREAKER.
Meets Success by Never Showing til
Fear of Her Mount.

Meets Success by Never Showing tn,
Fear of Her Mount.
1t is universally agreed that even 8
homely woman who has mastered the
art of equestrianism looks well when
in the saddle. When the rider is pref
ty and sits her horse with ease and
grace of course the beauty of the pic
ture is much enhanced. Hence it is
that Mrs. Annie Benson, wife of a
porous farmer living near Fowbles-
burg, Md, is regarded by all who know
her to be an exceedingly pretty sight
when seated on her favorite. thorough
bred mare. Mrs, Benson is a slender,
blue-eyed country-woman of we'll
rUunded figure and has been riding
horses almost ever since she can re-
member anything. She began riding
when she was 5 years old. and nCr
rather used to put her on the back of a
great animal while he guided the plow
behind. She has broken colts. been
kicked and bitten by horses, thrown
out of buggies and had divers other ex-
periences of the kind, but has never
been thrown from the back of a horse.
Mrs. Benson says, in discussing the
dlf1culties which confront girls just be-
ginning to ride: 'The entire secret of
being a good rider, l think, lies in not
being afraid of your horse. This is the
one great essential, but there are some
other things just as necessary to know.
When a girl gets on a horse, if she is
in the least bit frightened, the horse
knows it, and that knowledge has a de-
moralizing effect upon it, especially if
1t happens to be a thinking horse. l
used to wear a very long skirt until one
day a horse l was riding caught it's
me. Since then l have ridden with a
skirt of walking length and find it
much better. I do not think it would
help a girl much to ride astride like
a man in managing her horse. I have
ridden that way, but l felt that if a
horse started to run I could not stop
him at all. 81 am breaking two colts
now that will make beauties. One was
two years old on May 20 and the other.
a few months older. My method of
training is hard to describe. 1 simply
put the bride and saddle on them and
then get on myself. When | am INC
in the saddle l know they can't get
me out. 1 ride one of them every day,
sometimes six or seven miles. OF
course they are so young that 1 make
them travel very slowly and never
allow them to run for fear of weaken
ing their backs. 1t is not customary to
break a colt before he is three years
old, but these were such big fellows
that 1 thought they could stand it."
