TARIFF REVISION.

What more forcible argument need
there be in favor of tariff revision
than these words by President
Theodore Roosevelt, and there need
be no special importance attached
to them merely because they come
from the President, but they are
significant for their real truth and
logic:
stability in economic policy
must always be the prime economic
need of this country. This stabil-
ity should not be fossilization. The
country has aequiesced in the wis
dom of the protective tariff prin-
ciple It is exceedingly undesir-
able that this system should be de-
stroved. Unquestionlhly
these interests-the interests of our
people as a whole-will best be
served if, together with fxity of
principle as regards the tariff. we
combine a system which will permit
us from time to time to make the
necessary reaPplication of the prin-
ciple."
In answer to the question, why
IIS LdTlu SllOulu DC iGhlSSN'
say because it is good policy. Just
what is meant by that is not definite
" explained. Certainly, there arc
none who would discard principle
and the good of the country. for
mere political policy. If il i
meant that policy is a matter Of
principle, then well and good.
From the very nature and the
progress of the nation and world i
is absolutely essential for the wei
fare of the nation that periodicn
revisions of the tariff take place
so as to adjust the same to the de
mands and the times. There is no
shadow of doubt that the revisions
should take place even before thu
time comes, when, by force of cir
cumstances, the tariff is crippled in
its operation. Times of depression
are not periods for effective revis-
ions. When the wheel is working
nicely on the axle is the time to keep
the axle well creased and not wait
until tn hot-box comes. So, with
the tariff. Even in its highest sue
ccsses there is demand for revision.
but that does not mean that it should
be torn all to pieces and rebuilt. In
stead, the object should be to keep
it constantly up with the changes
that take place in the commercial
world.
From the political standpoint
there is scarcely doubt that the
great American people favor rcvis-
ion. It is talked everywhere, and
the agitation is becoming stronger
every day. And this recalls the fact
that the people clamored for revis-
ion of the Mckinley tariff, but the
"stand-patters" failed to heed the
cry. and the result was Democrat
ic President and congress, which
tinkered with the tariff unwiselv
and brought a terrible panic. Not
until the Republicans had gone into
power and made another revision Of
the tariff was the depression over
come. The lesson ought 10 have
been learned, but was it?
With Republican revision of thu
tariff every few years, adjusting il
to conditions that are constantly
there would be no need OF
revolution, no impairment
of or weakness in the fxitv of policy
and purpose, but confidence that
would inspire a growth and pros
perity of a permanent nature.

Grip Quickly Knocked Out.

"Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and my.
self contracted severe colds which
speedily developed into the worst
kind of la grippe with all its miserable
symptoms" says j. S. Egleston OF
Maple Landing, Iowa. "Knees and
joints aching, muscles sore, head
stopped up, eyes and nose running,
with alternate spells of chills and
fever. We began using Chamberlain
Cough Remedy aiding the same with
dose of Chamberlain Stomach and
Liver Tablets, and by its liberal use
soon completely knocked out the grip.
1t is a good plan to take dose OF
the Tablets when you have a cold.
They promote healthy action of the
bowels, liver and kidneys which is
always beneficial when the system is
congested by a cold or attack of the
grip. For sale by A. II. Roberts.

AMERICAN LANDSCAPE.
How 1t Differs From That of Eng
land and the Continent.

land and the Continent.
The American landscape, even in the
older parts of the country, is generally
readily to formal treatment as does the
typical English or continental land
scape. The owners Of big estates rare
ly appreciate the scale on which the
landscape architecture should be laid
out and the patience which is neces-
sary to obtain complete and consum-
mate effect. They want ready made
estates. Finally, the leading American
house architects have, with a few ex-
ceptions, a good deal to learn about
the technique of landscape design. So
far rs the large house itself Is con-
cerned, a convention has been estab-
lished which Is In the main good
dens Is still In an early experimental
stage. The stage properties are col
lected in abundance. There Is no lack
of pergolas, fountains, well heads, ga
zebos, statuary and pottery, but as like
as not they are indiscrimlnately placed.
The architectural features are, how
ever, generally somewhat better man
aged than the planting, which fire.

had been given some vague general d.
rections, or as II the lady of the house
had considered that 1t was woman's
business to make the garden green.
AS Il matter of fact, however, the lady
Of the house, In case she has her own
way, generally paints the garden vel
low and red rather than green. Her
idea usually Is merely to get as much
bloom as possible. and this she does at
sacrifice of those masses of foliage
which are absolutely necessary to give
mass, body and depth to large gar

Some Is Good and Some IL Counter
felt. but IL All Goes.
Emile Bard, Frenchman, has an
interesting chapter, on the money Of
China In his book, Chinese Life In
Town and Country" He explains that
the unit Of Chinese money is the tael,
which Is not coin, but a weight Of
silver-the ounce, OF which there are
sixteen to the catty and 1000 to the
picul. The commercial tael Is that of
Canton. which should weigh 37.7S3
grains, but usually weighs 37.5S. Then
there is the tael Of Shanghai, which
weighs 1856, and the revenue tael, used
In valuing imports and exports, and
each large city has its own, that Of
Tientsin worth from A to per cent
more than that of Shanghai. Business
estimated in taels is carried on by the
use Of Spanish dollars or silver ingots.
by every south China merchant and

ingots of silver are cut from bars into
pieces that the operator estimates Will
weigh 30 taels., Naturally each one
who handles them weighs them.
Banks store their money IN cellars,
In boxes carried back and Forth by
coolies" says NJ. Bard. This explains
the item Of transportation which Is de

One can judge OF the complications

especially as assayers OF different 10
calities refuse to honor the stamps OF
other cities" In places where the dol
lar is not used small payments are
made by cutting up an ingot. THE
scale used In weighing these fragments
has two sets Of markings; one for re-
ceipts and one for payments"
China's national coin Is the cash, a
round copper coin with square hole
through It, The cash or sapak dates
from at least 300 b. c. Eight pounds
weight Of cash makes a dollar. Years
ago an emperor decided to double his
funds by giving copper cash double its
value. In certain parts of the country
this performance is still in effect. In
other parts II or IS cash are counted
as 100.

Smallest BIRD.

The golden crested wren is the small
est not only of British, but Of all Euro
pean, birds. Its average weight is
only about eighty grains troy, so that
it would take seventy two of the birds
to weigh a pound. The length of the
feathers is about three and half
inches and the stretch of the wings
about five inches, but when the feath-
ers are taken off the length OF the body
does not exceed one inch.

The River KonsO.

Tropical rivers vary greatly in vol
ume in the rainy season sweeping to
the sea in vast torrential floods and
near the end of the dry season flowing
slowly and only in the central and
deeper portions of their beds. The
Kongo, however, the largest river in
Africa, rises and falls very slightly.
and Commander Cameron accounts for
this popularity, which was at one time
considered inexplicable, by the observa-
ton that the basin Of this great river
extends on both sides Of the equator,
and therefore one moiety Of its tribu-
taries are in flood while the other are
at their minimum volume.
