How 10 Plant Grapevines.

Grapevines should be planted about
,ight feet apart each way and about
zen inches deep, cutting them back to
;wo or three buds above ground. A
,rop of potatoes or strawberries may
De grown between the rows the first
two years. An excellent plan is to
allow two canes to grow the first year,
cutting back each year to three buds,
again allowing two canes to grow.
When five or six years old from three
% five canes may be left. Always cut
he old wood back 10 about a foot Of
the ground if stocky vines are re-
luired. 1t is the young wood that
bears fruit.

The Shirt Waist of 1901.

The distinguishing characteristics of
tn" summer shirt waists of 1901 are
tucked vests and small single or
double revers. The vest has band Of
embroidery or lace down the centre
and the revers are edged with narrow
lace. These new styles cannot be said
to be as pretty as the sailor models Of
last year nor are they apt to become
fashionable among fashionable wom-
un. The latter will don others. stick
to their plainly cut shirts rs they have
done for many years, through vogues
Of dimity and dotted muslin. spasms Of
ribbon coilarcd. fanCy-Slecved shirts
and other befrilled and critical eras.
The plain shirt waist Of good material
and good cut is the smart shirt waist of
1901, as il was of 1900 (and even of
1900, and doubtless will be ten years
from now il no genius evolves a
fashion better suited to our tCmpera-
mcnt and climate.

Courage - Common Virtue.

or all the virtues. says Richard
Harding Davis in the Evcrybody's
Magazine. courage is the least par
ticular as to where IL takes up it's
abode. There really nothing so per
plcNing and disappointing TO the hero
worshippcr as TO find that the same
virtue which he admires i'm his chosen
hero Is shared 10y others who. hut for
that one quality. are his interiors In
every way. In mind. I'm morals. I'm birth.
and In body. InCecd, one is inclined 90
believe IL to bc the commoneSt Of all
virtues. Ii is the rarCSt thing In the
world TO hear of n regiment showing
the white feather. and yet regiment
Is only n collection of human beings.
and human beings Of 10y no means the
highest mental or moral type Indeed.
after you have Observed the way the
private soldier conducts himself out of
office hours. you are inclined To place
courage lower than any Of the virtues.
even TO deny that II Is n virtue at all
and To class II as an instinct: for even
the black sheep i'm a regiment the
men who will lie. and loot. and assault
women. will fight magnifcently. coolly
and WITHOUT a suggestion Of doubt"

Wood Ashes For the Orchard.

The ashes from apple, pear and
peach trees contain about seventy per
cent. of lime, and the crops of fruit
borne every year also contain lime.
when orchards fail it is always profit

done at least once in five years. Wood
ashes are preferable TO lime for or

One Of the most eXasperating ills TO
which flesh is heir is the red nose that
so many people find an almost inevita-
bic accompaniment Of wintry winds.
The trouble has such variety Of
causes that it is not easy to find a rem
ody Of universal application, and the
individual sufferer who would be re-
lieycd must make an effort 10 learn
the source Of her particular case.
Absolute frankncss with ones self
Is necessary if she would really learn.
1t viii do not good TO say: why, my
corsets are loose as loose can be" if
tight lacing is causing the redness, yet
not a few women deceive themselves
in just that way.
Another potent factor is lack OF cir
culation. If ones hands and feet have
tendency 10 bc cold the nose is a.
most certain 10 be red, and every ef-
fort should be made to promote
more vigorous circulation. Warm foot

II the redness he caused by indiges-
ton, the table is the place to begin
treatment. Highly seasoned foods.
stimulartS and even strong tea and
coffee must be avoided and fruit and
vegetables should constitute a large
proportion of the diet.
While treating the causes an eXter-
nal treatment may be added. In some
cases it is helpful TO saturate a square
o absorbent cotton, large enough to
cover the nose, in cold water. over
this should be laid piece of oil silk.
Keep on the nose until the cotton is
dry.
One may conceal the rCdness OF the
nose by applying cold cream when

trust to limit production and control
prices, but are not willing that work
ingmen shall organize for mutual
benefit and to enforce fair wages.
When thousands of men are strik-
ing for the right TO organ
iZe, when other thousands are
idle because of this strike and in
dustrial plants all over the country on
the point of closing for lack of ma
terial, the head of a billion dollar
trust brutally declares there is moth
ing to arbitrate. This brutal answer
shows the danger that turks in a
trust. Workingmen no longer make
terms with a dozen or score of en-
ployers, but with one man, who has
their happiness. their bread and but
ter in his keeping. He controls the
entire market; he has $1,000 900, 600
behind him and can starve the men
into submission.
IF the trust continues TO reject ar
bitration the men who are struggling
to save organized labor will probably
be beaten. But the trust takes u dan
gerous risk. 1t will embitter the
toilers of the country and add to the
spirit of unrest II will force them
to the conclusion that the rich have
no sympathy for the poor and that
great profits and large dividends are
of more Importance than the well-be-
ing of the toiling millions.

MAN WHO ROCKED BOAT
HELD FOR HOMICIDE

Last Sunday evening Frank Rhine
hart, of Hagerstown, Md, took two
young women for a boat ride on Lake
Rover. He crooked the boat" to
brighten the girls. 1t upset and Mary
Finifrock, of York, Pa, was drowned.
Rinehart helped rescue the other girl,
and of course protested that he
didn't mean" any harm.
The coroner's Jury declined to ac-
cept this excuse. 1t was found that
Prank Rinehart wilfully and felon-
iously killed and murdered Mary Fin
ifrock," and has recommended that
he be held TO trial for the crime. OF
course the charge may have been
made graver than the evidence justi-
fed. For murder there must be q ma
Iicious intent. But Rinehart's con-
duct was certainly criminally care
less, and it resulted in a homicide.
Ieis to be hoped that the charge
made by the Hagerstown coroner's
Jury will be pushed to conviction and
q proper sentence imposed. The fool
that rocks the boat is a full brother
to the one that didn't know it was
loaded"
This class of persons, who indulge
in these idiotic performances, and
who Perpetrate so-called 'jokes,"
likely to result fatally, are running
at large everywhere and their victims
are numbered by the score. Let a
few of these funny" fellows be sent
to the penitentiary, and, if the pun
ishment proves fool Killer the
public will approve the method and
gain by the results. The precedent
has been established by the Hagers-
town jury, and let the juries here
after follow the precedent. II these
practical joking" sort of people can
be convinced and know that their
needless. brainless, actions may close
the doors of the penitentiary behind
them. they will cease to follow up
this abominable form of amusement
which is mirth to themselves and
death to the innocent victim. If any
of these persons are uncaged in this
city, let them heed and profit there

sCHwAB,s ANSWER.

President Schwab, of the steel trust,
rejects the proposition to submit the
merits of the steel strike to arbitra-
ton. The strikers were willing to
leave the entire matter to three men,
Seth Low, Bishop Potter and Arch
bishop Ireland. and pledge themselves
to abide by their decision. This is
certainly a fair offer. Mr.. Schwab,
however, spurns the proposal, de-
claring "there is nothing to arbi-
trate." In other words, he maintains
that the trust is right and the men
wrong. He contends that there is only
one way to settle the strike. The men
must return to the mills as individ-
uals and not as members of the union.
In the light of which attitude the
Rockford Star says: The million
aires reserve the right to organize a

JAMES Z. MCCLURE, of Carlinville,
has purchased the Carlinville Demo
crat. The paper was established by
Gov. Palmer, and for a long time
prior to the war he was it's editor. 1t
was originally called the Free Demo
crat, to indicate that it was opposed
to slavery. In those early days the
editorials in the paper were regularly
copied in such papers as the New
York Tribune and papers of that
class Upon the breaking out of the
war H. NJ. Kimball succeeded Gov.
Palmer as editor. The paper is
strongly republican and for 20 years
has been conducted by A. e. David.
The new editor is one of Gov. Yates
Chester penitentiary commissioners
and his acquisition of the paper may
make some changes on the political
map in both the congressional and
senatorial districts.

A REPUBLICAN state treasurer OF
Nebraska appropriated several hun
dred thousand dollars of state funds.
He was arrested, tried, convicted and
sent to the penitentiary. After a
short service he was paroled. The
honest men of the state were up in
arms at the outrage. At the republi-
can convention this week a mild re-
Duke was given the executive and he
revoked the parole. Sympathy spent
upon the poor man who cannot Sc
cure employment and commits a lar
ceny to prevent his family from
starving is not misplaced. But man
occupying the position of state treas
urer aud who violates the confidence
reposed in him, becomes untrue to his
trust and robs the people, should re-
ceiye the maximum punishment. Ii
the state treasurer had been some
poor, unknown fellow who had COM
mitted far less serious crime, the
chances are he never would have been
a subject for executive clemency. 1t
is strange how men will &c to a gov
ernor and merely because they are
mis- partisan friends ask the release OF
men from prison who have been fair
ly tried and convicted. The republi-
cans of Nebraska deserve credit for
having the nerve to rebuke their own
executive for his action.
