long as the customers accept the cheating gracefully, it will continue. It should be said, though, that the man who will skin his friends and GUS toners on whom he depends for liv- ing. is more contemptible than the tough who takes his life in his hands and rifles the pockets of the traveller. The difference in the crimes is in the method, and the risk rather than in their character.

They profess to desire "a

crafts. They profess to desire "a change.
 But if they would they could put an end to the greatest of grafts-the pro- tective tariff, by which the trusts are enabled to plunder American con- sumers in the most artistic fashion. The illegal gratis are not circum- stance to this legalized one, which shuts out foreign competition, and permits the trusts to add to their prices an equivalent of the duty, thus putting into their swollen coffers profits plus the tariff rates.
 If the Republican NaIars were sin cere in their outcries against preda- tcrv wealth and their avowals of en- mitv toward grafts they would turn on the vicious tariff. They would not expend their wind and words or the lesser evils, but would assa1l thls greatest of all. Talk about econom- ieal cancers, the tariff is the most VI rulant. Talk about graft, the tariff Is the most productive of tainted riches. IL is the great tyrant, oppressor and rohber of the American people. Down with it!

Ask your doctor if when he orders a patient to drink lots of pure milk he advises the addition of a large quantity of whiskey. He'll tell you mo" very emphati- cally. Yet there are people who, when ordered to get Scott's Emulsion, will accept some wine, cordial or extract of cod liver oil and think 1t is the same thing or better. If you want and need cod liver oil in its best, purest and most easily digested form, get Scott's Emulsion. If you want whiskey, that's another matter, but don't look for the same results.

DISHONEST WEIGHTS.

If the Graphic can be excused for paraphrasing Shakespeare, we would remark that "there is more graft in heaven and earth, Horatio, than ere thy philosophy dreamt of
 These remarks are provoked by ex- tracts from numerous eastern ex- changes to the effect that lively war Is raging between manufacturers of different kinds of scales used in the retail butcher and grocery business. Some of these scales, it is claimed, are sold to the stores on the strength of the dishonesty that can be practis- ed with their aid, and the manufac- turers do not conceal that this is the chief excellency claimed for them.
 It is only right that some notice should be taken of the almost undis guised stealing that has become a daily practice in trading. Short weight seems to be the rule in every line of goods sold by weight. The soaring of prices and the shrinkage in the vol ume of the articles the public must have, are phenomena that seem to have some mysterious relation to each other. Occasionally protest is made against the dishonesty displayed in the weighing. and for time improve ment is the result but the. public is easy. Soon the matter is forgotten. and the systematic robbery is resum- ed. At present the American public has been stirred up to protest against the graft that has been prac- tised on gigantic scale in large business concerns, and some srafters have been pursued to the bitter end to death in fact. It is only proper that honesty be demanded in the smaller business transactions. The latter are of even more importance to the general public than the speeu- lation of the so-called trusts.
 The remedy is in the hands of the consumers. If they would take the trouble to check up their purchases. and trade only when they get honest weight and measure, they would soon bring about a radical reform. But as

1.-THE GREATEST CRAFT OF ALL

Col. Henry Watterson possesses the happy knacll when he says thlns oi hitting the bulls eye and ringing the hell" The colonel is noted as tariff reformer of the old school, ana is celebrated as the champion ana nrotector of the "star-eyed goddess of reform" The protective tarif. he declares is the greatest graft or ali' and here is what he says in an edl- torial in the Courier-Journal:
 Hardly a day passes that you do not hear a Republican whose party loyalty is undisputed rail against re- bates granted surreptitiously by rall- roads to big shippers. They are not only illegal, but they enable the trusts. for the "big shippers are the trusts, to get special privileges and by means of them crush out the lltle fellows who, having no such pr'Vl- leses. cannot compete with them Leg islation is demanded to put an end
 
 tc rehates and to cut off one of the great grafts of the trusts.
 Hardly day passes that you do not hear a Republican of undisputed party loyalty make a great ado over the conspiracies alleged to have beep formed by the beef packers for the plundering of the farmer, from whom they buy, and the consumer, to whom they sell, and for the annihilation of the small packers and dealers. whom they overwhelm by means of sundry arafts. Legal prosecutions have been undertaken and are yet demanded for the suppression of the beef packers conspiracies and an end to tner

Olive Oil.

The medicinal qualities of pure olive oil are numerous and are becoming better known day b. day A teaspoon full taken after each meal will relieve constipation and dyspepsia. Mixed with an equal part of lime water it is invaluable for burns. Poured into the eye it will remove any foreign sub stance lodged there. It is a sure cure for hangnails, is good for chapped hands. is excellent rubbed over the whole body after taking bath and is beneficial for use in massaging a dry scalp.

Each rod carries an equal num- Der of counters, and opposite every rod is the name of some garment that is likely to be sent to the laundry.

A TYPICAL SOCIALIST.

The frequent expression of surprise at the disclosure of the fact that the Russian Socialist, Maxim Gorky, has heen introducing to his admirers as his wife woman who is not his wife in any decent sense of the word Is itself one of the unmixed surprises or the day.
 'Why should any intelligent man or woman feel the feast degree Of sur prise at such a fact?' asks the Chi caeo Chronicle. The whole piehald creed which he and his unlimited H. cense associates have for years been advocating amounts to an unmltfgat cd assault on the whole social fabric as it has grown up in the long and painful evolution of human history. Of that social fabric, meaning there by the whole constitution of society, religion, government, politics, lhdus- trv social intercourse of all types, marriage and the family under mar riace is and must be the chief corner stone.
 That so many men and women do violence to it in the best or the worst civilization yet known does not alter the fact or derogate in the least de- gree from it's primacy and imperative necessity to any form of human civl- 1ization conceivable. Without 1t, sanctioned and guarded as closely as possible by established law, nothing is left bpt sexual promiscuity and savagery.
 The creed which this man and oth- CTS like him profess and practice aims first to strike down the reign of law in established governments, not to substitute another form of gov ernment, for they are just as hostile tc our form as any other, put to substitute license for freedom under ordered law, which alone is civillza- tion.
 Thny aim at that first because to de- strov civilized discipline will brlngsh license and with that will come tAe-. next great step. the wiping out or al; the considerations and restraints ot re1ieion and established morality, ami along with that step inevitably must come the abolition of marriage as all institution. the dissolution Of fam1'5 ties and oblieations and the destf"c tion of society, which would then ee complete.
 Not all of them, perhaps, are con sciors that this is the end they are n.or,otinc but men like this one see it. If they were sure of soon atta'l irg the end as whole they nl's:N nossib1y wait for that atfafEmen' l" reoulate their own personal conduct h,t they see that present society will outliye them as individuals and there. fore they seek to order their own ,;ves-or disorder them-aecordHis to the sexual chaos which is theh ultimate ideal.
 That Gorky has had the effronter! to thrust his ideal under the noses of the American people is only part of the mental blindness than has at tacked all of his kind. The only req son for surprise is that any sober minded American can feel surprise at ,bo ;nsult he has inflicted on common decency.
