EVERY BOOST OF PRICE
WOULD CUT THE TARIFF
Local Republicans Suggestion to Bring the Trusts
Into Practically Benehcent Usefulness Under a New
Method of An Automatic Tariff.

ural laws; and as these principles are
perfect, if they are properly applied,
the results will surely give satisfac-
ton. Just as a planning machine is
the instrument for applying mechani-
cal laws; and the only reason that the
planning machine gives satisfactory
results is that it properly applies
those laws.
The proposition is simply to put a
gate in our tariff wall, so that when
the demand for any commodity be-
comes SO great that our manufactur-
ers cannot supply it at reasonable
prices, We will open the gate, and ad-
NIT the commodity, free of duty, if
necessary until the demand is salts
fed. and the price falls to normal.
By adopting this plan, we say to
the manufacturer, $50 long as you
sell your products at a fair price, you
can have the benefit of the present
tariff rates, but for every unit that
you advance the selling price above
that point, we will deduct a unit of
the tariff
The selling price of a commodity,
and the tariff rate on that commodity,
are naturally closely related, and the
trouble with our present tariff is, that
in it this relationship is not recog-
niZed.
As the selling price of commod-
ity is the thing affected by the tariff,
and the thing of vital Importance to
both manufacturer and consumer,
what is more reasonable than to con-
struct a tariff law, in which the SELL
ing price will determine the rate,
and the rate will regulate the SELL
ing price?

OF More Importance.

A considerable number of years ago
a young man went to Marshall Fields
great dry-goods store to apply for
position, and was fortunate enough to
be shown into the office of Mr.. Field
himself, to whom he stated the object
of his call.
The merchant was favorably i'm
pressed with his appearance and ad-
dress, and after asking him few ques-
tions relative to his business expert
ence, promised him a place in his en-
ploy. But the caller, who evidently
had expected to be more vigorously
catechized, thought 1t best to volunteer
some more information.
IF you wish,' he began, "to know
something Of my antecedents-"
II don't care to know anything about
your antecedents, young man." inter-
rupted Mr.. Field, with a smile. "If
your subsequents are all right, you'll
do. You may report to Mr.. Hitchcock
next Monday"

SUDDEN SHOWER.

Barefooted boys scud up the street,
Or skurry under sheltering sheds;
And schoolgirl faces, pale and sweet,
Clean from the shawls about their
heads.
Doors bang and mother voices call
From alien homes and rusty gates
Are slammed :; and high above it all
The thunder grim reverberates.
And then abrupt the rain, the rain
The earth lies gasping, and the eyes
Behind the steaming windowpanes
Smile at the trouble of the skies.
The highway smokes, sharp echoes ring
The cattle bawl and cow-bells clank /;
And into town comes galloping
The farmers horse, with steaming
flank.
The swallow dips beneath the caves,
And firts his plumes and folds his
wings;
And under the cataba leaves
The caterpillar curls and clings.
The humble bee is pelted down
The wet stem of the hollyhock;
And suddenly, in spattered brown,
The cricket leaps the garden walk.
Within the baby claps his hands
And crows with rapture strange and
vague;
Without, beneath the rose-bush stands
A dripping rooster on one leg.

THE HANDIEsT HAND.
Effect Produced by the Force of
Blood PRESSURE

In a paper on Left and Right-Hand-
edness," DIR, Lueddeckens gives some
interesting information regarding this
subject 1t has been a well-known fact
that the stronger activity of the nerves
of the right half of the body (for not
only the hand Is concerned) must be
ascribed to preponderance of the left
side of the brain, whose finer develop
ment, especially as the seat of the CEN
ter Of speech, Is a matter Of common
knowledge.
In the said paper, according to the
German periodical Woche, the question
regarding the causes of the unequal
working Of the two hemispheres of the
brain has been solved A sketch dwell
ing on the history of evolution leads
from the original symmetry of the or
ganisms to subsequent asymmetrical
arrangement Of the heart and the large
blood vessels, from which may be in
ferred quite naturally that the two
halves of the head are not placed on
an equal footing as regards the guam
tity Of blood supplied, and consequent
ly Of the blood pressure and that, on
the contrary, there must be under nor
NAL conditions a stronger pressure in
the arteries Of the left side of the head.
This theory Is supported by the we'll
known experiences Of anatomists and
pathologists, and series Of interesting
observations.
OF special interest Is the effect Of the
greater blood pressure upon the left
eye. DR.. Lueddeckens found in the
latter, as compared with the right one,
In surprisingly large number Of cases,
a narrower pupil, in consequence of a
more filed up condition of the vessels
Of the iris, and upon closer examna-
tion, shorter construction of eyeball.
This furnishes the hitherto unknown
reason for the fact that in large num-
Der Of persons the left eye is the better
one.
Thus the finer development of the
left half Of the brain is explained very
simply by the fact that it is better
supplied with blood, and the question
why it is the seat Of speech, and why
most people are right-handed, Is solved
in the most natural way. 1t is remark
able how truthful reflection of the
above described conditions is afforded
by the examination of left-handed per
sons. In large number of cases, a
more fiorid color was perceptible on
the right side Of the face, the right
eye was built shorter, it's pupil narrow
er; in short, everything pointed to a
better blood supply on the right side
of the brain, which in consequence i'm
parts to the left side of the body the
preponderance over the right one, a
condition styled left-handedness.
In relation thereto stands the habit
of most left-handed persons, in opposi-
tion to other physiological laws, to
sleep on the left side, in the uncon-
scious endeavor to relieve the right
half of the brain, which contains
larger amount of blood during the day.
For the same reason the position on the
right side is the normal one for right
handed persons.

The Little Old Maid

They called her "the Little Old
Maid"
But the words were never spoken in
the tone so often adopted when an un-
married woman of uncertain age is re-
ferred to as an "old maid" Rather,
the way they were said implied feel
ing of affection-in measure, of pity.
The phrase was generally uttered with
the infection of voice that we uncon-
sciously adopt when we speak of one
afflicted, or of one for whose condition
we are sorry and with whom we SYM
pathlze, or of some exceptionally lie
lightful child. The Little Old Maid at
tracted everybody who came in contact
with her.
She was nearly so; yet her features,
and the profusion Of the silvery hair
cojled about the well-shaped head,
showed how beautiful she must have
been. Her eyes were lovely still, and
quite magnetic when she smiled. But
1t was the strangely sweet expression
that lighted up her countenance when
she spoke which made her seem so ire
slstible, and caused people Of all class
es to feel instlnctively that they must
come to love her. 1t was said that old
men in her own rank of llfe and some
of much higher rank-she was the
younger daughter of an English baro-
NOT whose forefathprs hod noma I'm
scathed through the Wars of the Roses
often proposed marriage to her still :;
while effete young decadents, who
through dread of ridicule would in the
ordinary course have denied that a
woman no longer youthful could cast a
spell about them, admitted almost en-
Enthusiastically that the Little Old Maid
was quite exceptionally fascinating"
Often people wondered why she had
never married. Her contemporaries
could recall to mind the days when half
London had, as they truly said. "raved
about her." There were some who sigh.
ed when they tried to guess approx.
mately the number of proposals of mar.
riage she must have received in those
brilliant days-those days when ali
the world was young" Yet, though
partial to mems society, and with an
exceptionally keen sense Of humor that

perhaps rendered her company addi-
tionally attractive to men, the Little
Old Maid had never, even In the men,
ory Of her Oldest and closest friends,
met any man she would have wished
to wed. 1t seemed remarkable, more
especially as every woman, the plain
est not excepted, is said to meet once
at least In her lifetime her true affini-
ty, and that, failing to marry him, she
ends by focusing her love upon some
less worthy object. The Little Old
Maid, however, had no pet dog and no
pet cat and no pet bird. 1t Is true that
she loved all children with an intensity
that in some unmarried women might
have seemed unnatural. And children,
almost at first sight, reclprocated her
affection.
The Little Old Maid pushed back the
chair from the antique escritoire at
which she had been writing letters.
Then she rose, crossed the room, and
touched the electric bell. 1t was an
afternoon In late autumn. Outside, in
Onslow square, the fog seemed to be
thickening, she noticed as she passed
the window.
John, what time is itr' she asked,
as the footman entered.
He said it was half-past 3.
please wind the clock and then post
these letters"
When he had closed the door she
went back to her writing-table. An ad-
dressed envelope lay upon the blotter.
Unlocking little drawer, she took
from it two crisp banknotes, folded
them in sheet of paper, slipped them
into the envelope, and then re-locked
the drawer. Next she lit a small red
candle that stood in silver socket, and
carefully sealed the envelope. Later
she walked slowly to the corner of On

slow Square, and posted the letter In
the pillar-box there.
Punctually once month, for nearly
twenty years, she had gone through
this little pantomlme. But always she
had done 1t when none was near to
see.
Some friends came In at tea-time,
and soon after tea they left. The fog,
they had told her, was growing denser
still. Later, as she sat alone in her
cosy boudoir, a strange feeling began
to steal over her. She felt uneasy in
her mind. An odd sensation Of rest
lessness took hold Of her. She had
never before been like this, she reflect
ed, and the thought was disconcertlng.
Twice she rose from her armchair, and

A pail of gloom has settled
