CornwaII's Curious Gu tom.

Scrambling for nuts upon the sea-
shore is an annual event taken part in
by the children of Port Isaac, a fish
ing village on the northwest coast of
Cornwall. The little ones taking part
well deserve the little recognition of
their services in such a way, lend
ing hand as they do when the
local lifebOat has returned from riding
the stormy waters. To haul the boat
from the beach to it's station is heav-
ier task than the crew can accom-
plish, but with a couple of hundred
youngsters pulling at the ropes the
craft is soon safely housed. Once a
year the coXswain of the lifeboat has
a large quantity of nuts given to him
to scatter among the children, a neg
lect upon one particular occasion to
carry out the custom bringing about
n juvenile strike by way of refusing
to assist at further hauling up.
Speedily, however, the brave, rugged
fellows who risk their lives ''for
those on the sea- made up the diff
ference in dispute with the children,
and there is long likely to remain at
Port Isaac the annual nut scramb-
ling beside the sounding sea.-Golden

One of Glen McDonouEh;s Jokes.

In one of his farces Glen McDonough had
written two or three lines TO be spoken by d
chorus girl. The lines were given TO green,
heavy amateur, who looked well and would
do. At the rehearsal the girl made her way
to McDonough, who held the book, and said: !:
"Mr. Mcponough, | have line in the first
act and one in the third. Couldnt you write
me one for the second act, too?" McDon-

and said: Yes; in the banquet scene you

"There are no trusts In the Unite

and Ireland are free trade nation, and
for reasons which will be mentioned,
trusts do not find congenial coil in free
trade countries. France and Central
Europe. where population is dense, in.
dustrill activities are highly organized,
and competition is fierce, are regions
where trusts existed before America
knew them, and where they are growing
in number and influence every year.

feet of the tariff is, in one way, TO ia

it is fiat failure. IL is obviously much
easier to suppress or diminish competi-

in the whole world. 1t is much easier
10 make trade combination between
producers ia one country than in all
countries and IL high tariff keeps ont
the competition of other lands so that
the trust is not ex posed to assaults from
all over the world; the tariff favors the
trust to that extent.
Though there are not trusts in the
United Kingdom as the word is un-
derstood among us, 1t does not follow
that there are not sometimes informal
agreements ard understandings among
business interests which increase their
power to meet competition, and some
times there are complete amalgama-

that Of Coats Company in thread man

results may be somewhat the same as
those of great combination in the
