Mako. . Living Catching BUTTERFLIES.

Catching butterflies is the pleasant
work by which a clever English girl
makes a good living. Miss Mary Yeo-
mans, before going to California, has
collected butterflies for pleasure at
home, and after coming to America
realized that many of the rarest varie-
ties are to be found in California. The
arst butterflies she captured were Of q
species seldom found except in the
higher Alps, and on sending them to
England she was paid SIS each. From
that time on she has been steadily in
creasing her stock, and now makes .
large income by the sale Of the insects.

Cause of the Advance.

A reader Of Gunton's Magazine in
CURED why it was that wire nails sold.
at $1.50 in 1898 and at S4.335 in 1899,
when the advance in wages had been
but 10 per cent. Tho reply is worthy
Of attention, because the same state
ment is made in antitrust speeches all
over the country. The price of wire
nails in January, 1898, in Pittsburg,
was S1.40. and of cut nails S1.10. In
stead of S4.335, the highest point wire
nails have reached was was $500, and.
cut nails $2.5O-the alleged quotation
being nearly onc-third higher than the
real one. Instead of 10 per cent, wages
have risen % per cent. in every branch
Of iron production, including the ore.
During the period named Bcssemer pig
advanced from $40 to S24.9O q ton, or
nearly $50 per cent, while the price Of
wire nails advanced from $l.dO to $500,
or 12S per cent. Thus it is evident that
the advance in price of wire nails is
due to the advance of the material out
Of which they are made. A few in
quirics into the causes OF the recent adj
vance in prices of articles alleged to be
made by trusts will make it clear that
the rise is due to the rise in the price
Of the materials out of which the fin
ished product is made. There is no

Ex-Governor Hogs, Of Texas, pro-
fesses to think that Everything looks
as though this would be a Bryan year."
He says that thousands Of men who did
not vote for Bryan in 1896 will vote for
him in 1900. Eight years ago the voters
Of the country sacrificed the prosperity
which they We're enjoying under the
Mckinley tariff law and elected the
Stuffed prophet Of free trade to the
Presidency. Perhaps it is this fact
which leads Ex-Governor Hogs to think
that they will so and do likewise in
1900. There certainly is no other sign
anywhere which would lead n man in
the possession of his senses to think
that there was even a remote POSSIBLE
ity of this being a Bryan year." But.
Governor Hogg, the fact that the peo-
pie have done q thing ono is no sure
sign that they will do 1T again. In fact
it is often the surest sign that they
won't repeat it. And that is the way
it is in this case. In 1892 the majority
of the people of the country did not

trade meant, nor what Democratic tar.

they do. They felt happy and prosper.

Gov. Tnylor's Position,

sources are exhausted. Gov. Taylor has

ly American. Flo has been criticised
for exercising n constitutional duty in
case of Instruction. OF the ground that
no insurrcction existed. On that point
opinions differ. The State was at the
verge OF civil war and the danger still
exists. The Legislature was about to
throw all de,iberation to the winds and
declare itself the creator of a Governor.
Taylor either had to surrender and
vacate without knowing why. or stick
to his post until the path of courageous
duty was made clear. 1.-The burdens

would l have escaped them il such q

rue is perfectly apparent. An office
dangers as that intrusted to Gov. Tay-
Tor is endurable only on the ground that
honorable obligations require that it be
protected in behalf of the people until
its last legal Safeguard is broken down.
In addition to the other burdens OF
the Office. Gov. Taylor has been de-
nounced by various Democrats as nc
cessory to the murder of Goebel, and
the detailed facts Of the tragedy seem
to be Systematically suppressed by the
Goebelites in order to support the
charge. Every day Gov. Taylor re-
ccives letters threatening him with as
sassination and at night the guards
around his quarters are fired upon. Yet
he remains where he belongs and is the
Governor of kentucky until the cor
trary is absolutely established. He
represents the people and the people
honor him accordingly. Should he be
thrown out, the right Of the people to a
ballot goes with him. and should he be
personally injured by the partisan con-
spirators who have bounded him from
the moment he was nominated he will
be a martyr TO the cause of popular gov
eminent. Gov. Taylor has done the es.
sential thing in the spirit of a true,
bravo American frceman.-St. Louis

Cost of Living.

An Investigation into the comparative
cost OF living at the various European
capitals results in the following facts:
At Vienna the prices of most articles
of FOOD are lowest; ut Madrid they are
dearer than in any other capital, and
such things as bread. meat. sugar and
coal are very expensive indeed. At st.
Petersburg also the price of bread is
still considered a luxury above the
means of the working classes. Next to
Vienna, Brussels is an inexpensive city:
Paris is Il little higher in the scale,
while London is still more expensive.
An American spends on an average
fifty dollars 81 year. for food: Il French
man forty-cight dollars: Il German. for
ty-fivc dollars: a Spaniard. thirty-three
dollars: an Italian, twcnty-four dollars:
and IL Russian. forty dollars. OF meat
the American eats one hundred and
nine pounds Il year; the F%renchman,
cighty-scven pounds: the German, six
ty-four pounds; the Italian. twenty
eight pounds: and the Rissian fifty-one
pounds. OF bread the American con-
sumes three hundred and eighty

When the Nestlings Come.

Nestlings grow rapidly under the
incessant and ass!duous care of one
and sometimes both parents, who
bring them soft food, and the number
of insects and worms they consume is
prodigious. Each days ration is far
more than their own weight-a thing
made possible by the exceedingly
rapid digestion which characterizes
birds This function. as well as res
piration, is more expeditions in young
than in old birds, and how tiny tit
mouse can keep full the ever ravenous
mouths Of such a brood as appears
IN that family Of nine bluetits passes
comprehension. An even more diff
cult thing to understand is how all
seem to thrive equally. Our American
titmouse's nest is an old WoodpeckerS
hole or some such Granny, often where
the room is so small that the young
are packed in layers, almost literally
like sardines in d box; and the Euro
