TRADE IN SMALL THINGS.
Some Little Articles That Make a
Large showing in the Com
merce of the World.

One would think that almost any
country could raise all the eggs its peo-
pie consume. Some Of the largest coun-
tries, however, import an enormous
number Of eggs. 1t takes about bill
lion and half of eggs every year to
supply the demand in Great Britain and
Ireland besides all the eggs that are
produced there. Forty per cent of the
eggs consumed in the United Kingdom
are brought from 20 foreign lands, in
cluding several Of the British colonies.
Germany comes next TO Great Brit
ain as the largest consumer Of eggs in
Europe. Her imports are little over
a billion and half year, and she is
obliged to pay from SIG 1000, 900 to $l9,-
coo, 600 a year for the eggs she buys
from other countries. The reason why
Germany does not produce enough eggs
for her own consumption is that the
dampness Of the country causes large
mortality among chickens, and, be-
sides, large districts are occupied by
extensive estates, where the peasantry
live in villages, which prevents them
from keeping a large number of hens.
Japan Is now using a great many
eggs, though very few are produced in
the country. As they are very much
cheaper in China, the eggs japan uses
are almost all imported from that coun-
try.
Russia is the largest exporter Of eggs.
The number sent from that country in
1896 was 1,475, 100000, Of which $780,
100000 were shipped to the United
Kingdom.
The manufacture Of matches in Ger
many has become so important an in
dustry that the factories are now using
every year about 8, 500, 900 cubic feet Of
aspen wood, Of which about three-fifths
is imported from Russia.
Bavaria alone has 26 lead-pencil fac
tories, which employ from 1000 to 10,-
900 worlmen and produce on an aver
age 4,320,000 lead-pencils and crayons
each week. 1t is a curious fact that
the use Of German lead-pencils in all the
public offices and schools OF France is
forbidden by lawn. Y. Sun.

DR. Bulls Cough Syrup always cures
colds. A neglected cold may terminate
in consumption. Care your cold in

1t has often puzzled the uninitiated
TO give reason why musicians tune
their instruments in public, and not be
fore they enter the orchestra If they
tuned their instruments before enter
ing the theatre or concert room, the
temperature is very apt TO be different
in the place Of performance and, there
fore, the instruments would not be in
tune. A piano that is in tune in cold
room would get out Of tune if the room
were suddenly heated.
The Free Press, Of the Canadian pro
vince of Manitoba, speaking of the
school work children are required TO do
out of school, says: AN adult is able

dure, without suffering theoretically.

Practical Side of the French.

We may say what we like about the
French being led away by sentiment,
but in some respects they are severely
practical people. The Gallic housewife
will make a pound Of shin beef go far
ther than any other woman in Europe.
Their capacity, indeed, for making the
best of unlikely materials is beyond
rival. Take, for instance, the Eiffel
tower, which is somewhat Of white
elephant when there are no exhibitions
going on. But French wit has been
equal 10 finding a use even for that,
and very ingenious use, too. The po-
lice authorities have stationed watch
men upon its summit to take note Of
the establishments which fail to con-
sumo their own smoke. The idea is ex-
cellent, and we commend the notion
10 the county council and the city cor
poration. 4 couple Of watchmen on top
Of the monument, armed with power
ful glasses. ought TO strike terror TO
the hearts Of those who reck not OF
Welsh coal and care nanght for smoke
consuming appliances.-st. james Ga

plaint is made that it frequently fails [ and then two or three are received at one time. An investigation has been made, disclosing these facts: The pa per is placed in the Prescott pOstoffice each evening not later than o'clock. The postoffice employees place it in the mail which leaves here about o'clock every morning If it is taken care of promptly afterwards it should be de- ivered the next day ct it's destination in JerCme. The fault then lies either with the postal clerks on the trains,
 the transfer service at Jerome or the pcstofice al Jerome, and it is sincerely
 hoped that it can be remedied as there is no reason why it should not reach subscribers soon after the arrival of the nocn train at Jerome.-Journal- Miner.
 Charles Bell, the mining expert, re- turned late las5 night from an inspec- tion tour into the Santa Rita mining district. He left in the morning and tho round trip covered over fifty miles He expressed himself as pleased with the prospects he saw, and believes there may be a chance for the opening up of some better copper properties within that district than in localities further away 70 which his attention has been called, and an examination made of the same by him. A large copper producing mine within twenty or twenty-five miles of our city would afford a very material increase Of our resources. Had we some such mine as the Copper Queen Of Bfsbee working near our door Tucson would double her population within two years. The advance of the copper market will probably afford the inducement re quired to develop some of the fine pros poets to be met within the great copper belt almost surrounding Tucson Tucson Star.

FIRST DUTIES

American affairs being as they are. the political programme for the party in power in the United States would seem perforce to be this:
 l. To provide an army large enough to meet the extraordinary demands made upon the government in connec- ton with Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines.
 H. The start at once toward lha building of the Nicaragua Canal
 Opposition to the army bill can be based on nothing but provincial nar- roWness or a shameful hope to extract out of the situation some partisan ad- vantage. It is like lying by the bat tlefeld to rob the dead. Hesitation in endeaVOring to increase the army would make the republican party de- serving of overthrow as a witlesS and heartless incompetent. And it must te said frankly that the army bills now before congress represent the very least that could be urged without leav- ing the republican party convicted Of failure in it's duty.
 The war made it clear to the entire country that the Nicaragua Canal is a paramount necessity. An enterpri O. so pOnderous moves slowly at best As it cannot be built too soon, too much energy cannot be put forth by the soy. ernment to begin it.
 There are other national needs be- yOnd these two, but these are the greatest.-New York Sun.

THE NEW GOSPEL SCOUT"

A small Cleveland boy has a dread ful stock of slang at his tongues end to the great grief and humiliation Of his mother A good deal of his slang he learns in the street, and some of it he gets from a wicked uncle.
 The other day, while out with his sled. he had a bad tumble on the ice, and bruised his side quite severely. He isn't too big a boy to be petted by mamma, and he came hustling into the house to get her help and comfort.
 He bounced into the parlOr, and there sat a kindly faced gentleman with big dark eyes and a curling beard, waiting to see the boys mother.
 This is the way the boy described what followed:
 q knew who it was right away. mamma, and I said to him: 'Ain't you tn new gospel scout to our church?' An he kind O smiled an said: You've guessed it, my boy I'm the new ser mon sharp at the birthstone shack around the cocner.' Say, mamma, he beats Uncle George clean out e sight. Uncle George don't know no slang as good as that Then he saw me hOldin' my side an he says: Whats tn mat ter? Cracked slat?' An say, mamma, he just unbuttoned my jacket an rub bed the pain right away, mos as quick as you could, an I think he's the incest man I ever knew, except papa, of course an 1 told him I'd be sure to come to hear him preach next Sun day. y."-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
