manufacturing districts are peppered
 with them. In Chemnitz, which might
 be called the Manchester of Germany, a
 great weaving center there are thirty
 schools where children are taught to
 make braids and trimmings. At Glau-
 chau there is high school for weaving.
 In the Harz mountains there are schools
 for toymakers. and in the Valley of the
 Ruhr there are many schools in which
 all branches of steel and iron making
 are taught.
 Germany has schools for foremen as we'll as for laborers. It has schools of commerce, where the pupils are taught
 all about importing and exporting, and it has half dozen commercial high schools. rt
 Sunday Schools for Mechanics. One of the queer features of this edu- cation is the school held on Sunday to give mechanics practical instruction in their trades. There are a score of such
 schools in Berlin and other cities. There is a school for masons, which is held every Sunday from 9 a. m. to p. m.
 The students. many of them mechanics who work during the week, are taught all about construction work. making arches

fight them. The Westinghouse Company and the General Electric Company prac- tically control the electrical market of Great Britain. The Westinghouse are doing big business in Russia and also In Austria, Italy, Belgium, France and in Norway and Sweden. The Swiss have a good competing company and the Ger mans have four great electrical compa- nies, which do an enormous business side by side with the American companies. Nearly all the foreign companies, how ever, use more or less American machin- cry, and some are worked in connection with the American companies. The Union ElectTischc Gesellschaft Is an associate of the General Electric, It has American machinery and an American foreman. There are Americans employed in the works of the other companies. and in some cases there are American salesmen on the road.
 Sweden has its own electrical company and there are several competing compa- nies in Great Britain. Both the Nesting house and the General Electric operating in Great Britain claim to be British com panies, although they are in reality mere branches of the American institutions. By calling themselves British they remove the prejudice against American made goods, and by putting a lord or So on their board of directors they have made them selves popular. Both companies have large establishments in Great Britain. and they Manufacture electrical machinery from American patterns with British la Dor.
 The same Is done by our Diamond Match Company, which controls the match business of Great Britain, but is known there under the old firm name of Bryant & May, and also by the America Il Tobacco Trust, which is working largely

The French have now tariff on our shoes, which practically excludes them. They are much liked, and are generally considered better and more stylish than the French shoe.

In Germany was told that secret instruc- tions had been sent out to the local au- thorities to give no information concern ing German products to American con- suls, implying that American goods were to be discriminated against.
 This was especially so as to American meats.

Interesting Experiment in g.
 Restaurant.

An advertising agent. representing . prominent New York magazine, while on d recent western trip. was dining one evening in a Pittsburg restaurant.
 While waiting for his order he glanced over his newspaper and noticed the ad- vertisement of a well known dyspepsia preparation Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets; as he himself was a regular user of the tablets, he began speculating as to how many of the other travelling men in the dining room were also friends Of the pop ular remedy for indigestion.
 He says: I counted twenty three men at the tables and in the hotel offlce took the trouble to interview them and was surprised to learn that nine of the twenty-thres made a practice of taking one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab cts after each meal.
 One of them told me he had suffered so much from stomach trouble that at one tune he had been obliged to quit the road, but since using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets had been entirely free from indigss- ton. but he continued their use, espe- cialIy while travelling. on account of ir- regularity in meals and because like all travelling men he was often obliged to eat what he could get and not always what he wanted.
 Another, who looked the picture of health, said he never ate a meal without taking Studrt 1dDleL dIterWard because he could eat what he pleased and when he pleased without fear of sleepless night or any other trouble.
 Still another used them because he was subject to gas on stomach, causing pres sure on heart and lungs, shortness of breath and distress in chest, which he no longer experienced since using the tablets regularly.
 Another claimed that Stuarts Dyspep- sia Tablets was the only safe remedy he had ever found for sour stomach and acidity. He had formerly used common soda to reh we the trouble, but the tab lets were much better and safer to use.
 After smoking. drinKing or other ex- cesses which weaken the digestive organs, nothing restores the stomach to a healthy. wholesome condition so effectualiy as Stuart's Tablets.

What Is there before her after the years of looking young are oyer. even though she feels strong and capable as ever? The prospect of an old woman's home is not very enticing, is 1t?
 So, as a matter of commercial policy, the wage earning woman absolutely must keep herself young looking. Ths home woman owes 1t to her family te look pretty and attractive to her latest day. As to the society woman, she al- ready knows what's what In this respect and, needs no admonition. All other wo- men should take a lesson from her and from such women as Patti and Langtry. They prove 1t possible to maintain even what used to be called old age for a wo- man.
 The foundation of all youth Keeping is of course physical health and activity. These may be maintained in perfection by higienic living and physical culture. One of the first signs that woman is neglecting physical culture Is an unsight- ly stiffness and "humpiness'' at the back of her neck and shoulders.
