THE GREAT MINORITY.

A writer in a current magazine takes
a dreary few of life in rather I'M
usual article which is worthy of notice.
This writer, who evidently has love
for statistics, has figured it out that
the majority of people in America and
England are under the age of 25 years.
He says that when one passes that age
he has joined the minority. for he has
reached the age of life at which the
persons of his age and younger are

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

The philosopher of the Dubuque
telegraph Herald thinks that with
love gone the legal responsibility of
the husband to care for his wife still
remains. The moral responsibility ex-
lists only where the conscience directs.
The need is for moral education, the
teaching of what the higher law i'm
poses on wives and husbands"
The Fonda Times observes that the
Iowa Chautauqua is becoming one of
the greatest of political rallies.

The decrease in tie value of i'm.
ports is heaviest under the head of
raw cotton, though this shrinkage in
value is due, to some extent, to the
fall N price, as can be seen from a
comparison of the decrease in value
with the decrease in quantity of cot
ton imported. Silk. rubber, wool, chem
icals, dyes and colors are some of the
other important raw materials imported
which show heavy decreases
Parallel with decreased imports of
the principal manufacturers materials
go decreased imports of machinery,
tools, cars and carriages, paper and
manufactures of. manufactures of silk,
wool and cotton, indicating a lessened
willingness or ability of the Russian

RUSSIA AND The WAR.

Internal conditions in Russia have
suffered during the war probably more
than the rest OF the world realizes. Not
only have the socialists and the enc
mics of the government gained head
way in their efforts to overthrow the
reign of the car and the bureaucracy,
but commercial affairs have received a
depressing setback. This fact is shown
by figures recently compiled by the
statistical department of the bureau of
commerce and labor in this country,
the facts being obtained from the
Trade Review issued by the Russian
government.
Imports into Russia over the Euro
pean frontier during the first four
months Of the present calendar year
have fallen off 27.5 per cent as com
pared with imports during the cores
ponding period in 1901 while exports
during the same period are IL per cent
in excess of exports during 1904 This
statement is made on the basis of the
Russian official trade returns, just re
ceived by the department of comm cree
and labor through its bureau Of stats
tics. The figures of imports and ex
ports for the first four months during
the last three years appear as follows
-Four months
ending April Imports. Exports

1904 80. -. 1O4,S34,00O 6,541 ,OO(
1905 -. -. 1908 600 1876 ,59S. 00(
The decreases Of imports are heavi
est under the general heads of Raw
and semi-manufactured materials" ani
less so under the head of "manufac
1 tures.'
The imports of articles constituting
the first group have decreased in value
from S61,242 900 in 1901 to S39,712. 0O(

Now that one can find at al tho beSt
shops Il very good quality Of gloves for
dollar there is no need for any ono to wear
gloves that arc shabby or soiled, TO say
nothing Of the fact that there are many
places where only five cents is charged
to clean them.
In gloves. as in everything else, there
are changes IN the styles each year, both
in color and cut, but il ia rarely that a de
cided innovation IL great SUCCESS. Tho
gloves that simply slip over the hand and
are confined at the wrist by an elastic band
are having n wonderful vogue They srs

made of the best kid. as well as the less ep-
pensivo.
Too much cannot be esid about tho neces-
atty for proper care IN removing gloves
from the hands. for upon this more than
anything else depends the length OF time
a pair Of gloves viii wear. After un-
fastening the glove it should be turned
back over the hand. as far as the fingers.
and then should be pushed OF. without
pulling on the fingers Of the glove at all.
as when this ia done the threads OF the SOW
ing are broken and in a short time begin TO
rip.
After the glove IS OF tho hand the fingers
should be gently Strengthened out. the
gloves smoothed into shape and put into

The bolero has defled the assaults OF the

more indispensable than for winter, be-
cause no long coat comes triumphantiy

blouse coats with beRs and short basoues
