SPAIN NEEDS OUR TOBACCO.
Consular-Agent Mertens, Of Grao,
writes, under date OF February Is, 1893:
"Spaln's tobacco factories are, to a
great extent dependent upon American
tobacco. During the late war this could
not be furnished, and various trials were
made with other kinds; but none seemed
able to replace the American product. In
the month Of May new contracts for to-
bacco deliveries are made by the COM
pany which has the monopoly Of the to-
bacco trade in Spain. and, as it Will pro-
badly purchase American tobacco again,
our merchants should enter into negotia-
lions with them. Already. agents from
Germany. with samples. have arrived
in Madrid. and no time should be lost
by the United States houses"

Children and Municipal Life.

I'VE further believe that our children
should be taught that the outside is just
an extension of the home life, and that
they, too, have an important part to
perform in the proper maintenance of
both We have societies for this pur-
pose, and I am happy to say that the
children are greatly interested in the
work, and are eager to become good
citizens when we explain to them what
this means in its fullest sense.
Our hope lies in the children, in
training them to habits of cleanliness
and consideration for the rights and
property of others. We teach the chill
dren in our societies that trespassing
means going into other peoples yards
without permission, pulling plants and
picking flowers without leave, breaking
hedges running across balconies and
UP and down steps, injuring fences and
vacant houses, and all the various
forms of petty vandalism which are so
common.
I'VE aim to teach each child that he
is under an obligation to the city which
has given him free education, pro-
vided even the books and pencils which
he uses all the years he is at school,
and keeps up at great expense the beau
tiful parks in which he may go to play
and rest; protects his home by main
tanning fire department which comes
to- his help if his home is in danger, and
further looks after his safety by polio
ing the streets so that evil-minded per-
sons may not modest him nor commit
wrongs against his property
THE cleanliness of city is simply
municipal housekeeping; therefore, this
society believes that if women were in
certain official places in the city, par
ticularly upon school boards and upon
the health board and in certain depart
ments pertaining to the inspection of
the city's business, especially in the
Street Cleaning Department they
would do admirable work because they
are more naturally given to know the
details which make work perfect than
are men. THE Gentlewoman.
