There are reasons why she should be
even more welcome. One reason is that
the male population of the world largely
exceeds the female population. There are
reasons for this which will not be gone

baby should be as welcome as a boy baby
IN any family in a civilized country is

The Ownership Of Children.

It is only in late years that lecturers
and writers have taken it upon them
selves to counsel fathers and mothers
upon the proper bringing up of their
children, and it may be said, incidental
ly, that since the world began genera
lions have developed into healthy man
vice. 1t is very difficult to advise ben
ef1cially on sVch a subject. Methods
that are applicable in the training OF
one child are not always applicable tc
his brother. The subject will not admit
of universal or even general statements.
However, in one point, at least, we dc
agree with Mrs. Birney, the writer of a
paper in the January Delineator entitled
Childhood" that 1.-The erroneous sense
of proprietorship with which parents are
wont to regard their children is a SOURCE
Of many mistakes in their management
If the point of view of privileged guar
dianship would supersede that of own
ership, the little ones, in many cases
would be happier.

BRANDY TRADE SECRETS.
French Spirits Improved With Amer
can Help-English Spirits Vile.


In the current number of the Lancet
appears the report of the commission
which, at the instance of that journal,
has been inquiring both in France and
this country into the production of
brandy, the present position of the in
dustry and the supply Of the genuine
spirit to Great Britain. From 1872 on
wards the phylloXera SO restricted the
vine harvest from which brandy was
distilled that it became easy for I'M
scrupUlOus traders to foist on the mar
ket limitations made from grain or po-
tatO spirits, beetrOOt or sugar. AS these
spirits differ largely in their medical
properties from that Of the grape it
naturally followed that the limitations,
failing to give the expected results,
speedily earned q bad name for brandy
as whole, with the result that even
when the crop improved and the out
put was satisfactory, both in quality
and quantity, it had to face a prejudice
which prevented it recovering the pop
ularity it deserved. The leading firms
therefore invited the inquiry, of which
this report is the outcome.
By 1877 the phyllOXera had destroyed
the greater part of the vines of the
ChaTente, and the difficulty was to find
plant which would resist the disease
and thrive in the soil of the district.
In 1887 an expert was sent to America
a grape in Texas which, after rxlny
experiments, has succeeded admirably
in a great part of the Charente, While
other areas have also been supplied
with suitable vines. The science of
viticulture is sedulOusly pursued, and
the result is that the output has in
creased so rapidly that farmers in some
places find that their difficulty is to
avoid OyerprOduction.
The wine obtained from the grapes
is sour and harsh. This, indeed, is
meTit-the harsher the wine the better
the brandy distilled from it. Distilla-
ton is now largely carried out by the
merchants, and the result of the COM
binatiOn Of care and capital is that the
new vines are yielding brandy as good
as that produced between 1865 and
1875. None the less the unsuspecting
British consumer finds himself paying
3s Sd for a bottle containing favored
spirit of grain-not of grape-Or at
certain restaurants in London Is sd for
q small bottle-four and a half ounces
of characterless spirit with some
genuine brandy in it. At the same time,
spirit coming from any of the we'll
known makers is perfectly genuine,
varying, of course, in merit according
to age and other considerations. The
Lancet urges that for medicinal pur-
poses there ought to be a definite
standard of quality, and that greater
attention should be given to the de-
termination of the normal chemical
cons tituents of genuine brandy and
other spirits than has hitherto been the

claims Of the Iowa creditors of the Eigin
Creamery company. The 5000 Iowa cred
itors of the concern had agreed with the
company that patrons who furnished
milk or cream should receive 40 cents on
the dollar of their claims, while those
who had claims for hauling the supplies
should receive 100 cents on the dollar
The patron and hauler are practically one

considered as a victory for the creditors.
