Not His Ducks.

A story is told OF the famous
Richard Brinsley Sheridan that, one
day when coming back from shooting
with an empty bag. and seeing a
number Of ducks in a pond, while
near by man was leaning on a
fence watching him, Sheridan asked:
What will you take for shot at
the ducks?"
WELL" said the man, thoughtful-
ly, "I'll take half sovereign"
Done" said Sheridan. and he
fired into the middle of the flock
killing dozen or more.
"Pm afraid you made bad bar
gain" said Sheridan, laughing.
81 don't know about that" the
man replied. They're not my
ducks" i1a

Judge Pryor, of the Jefferson
county criminal bench. In a lengthy
speech defends himself from the at
tacks of the local papers for his rul-
ings in the DR.. Sarah Murphy case.
DR.. Murphy for the second time in
her spotted career was acquitted on
the charge of homicide by criminal
operation, because the court compell-
ed the commonwealth to proceed
without an important witness, who
was unaccountably absent. Unfortu-
nately 1t has been too frequent in
Louisville that expert investigation
has shown that the coroner called
deaths by violence, deaths due to
natural causes. when Aaron Kohn or
some others was representing suspect
ed persons, and the commonwealth
attorney has prosecuted in a perfume
tory manner under the same odd
spell Even the rock-ribbed party Or
gan, The Times, had to say some
thing derogatory of the court in the
DR.. Sarah Murphy case. Hence the
Judges statement.

Discouraging divorce is futile. En-
couraging the domestic virtues is
more hopeful. Like all other moral
questions, the divorce evil must be
remedied by applying preventative
to individuals, not by public action.
Treatment for the propagation OF
domestic virtues should commence
when the subject is two hours old
and should be continued faithfully
by the parents until the subject pass
es from under parental care. Each
generation is to blame for the faults

REVISION VS. ABOLITION.

Agitation for tariff revision has
been revived by the German recipro-
eel agreement, and the American
Manufacturers association has come
out fiat-footed for tariff revision. A
poll Of the organization shows that
So per cent favor revision, while 20
per cent favor "hands OFF, policy.
The latter may well be classified as
revisionists, deferred by expediency.
There are few people in this coun-
try, who do not believe the Dingley
tariff schedules should be revised.
There are still fewer. who believe In
free trade. It is this difference, which
complexities the situation. Did the
Dingley tariff stand for the ultimate
possibility of the doctrine of protec-
tive tariff and was free trade the only
alternative, the tariff problem would
be easy of solution.
But this country is welded TO the
doctrine of protective tariff. We
have prospered too long and too well
under its beneficent ministration, not
to realize the force of reasoning, that
"the proof of the pudding is in the
eating" Fine spun theories count for
nothing in the light of the expert
ence under the Cleveland administra-
ton, and the subsequent return of
Industrial prosperity when the tariff
was restored.
The very demonstration of the fact
that the Dingley schedules were
adapted to suit the conditions en-
countered at the time they were
adopted, indicates that these same
ed from time to time to conform to
changing conditions. That constitutes
the difference between tariff revision
and free trade. The whole country
practically favors revision, but the
necessity for 1t is not acute, and the
overwhelming majority of voters
would prefer the continuance of the
Dingley schedules to even the dan
ger of return TO free trade.
For this reason the tariff revision
should not be made a feature in a
political campaign. That could avail
nothing except to create a schism in
the ranks Of protectionists, of which
the free traders could take advant-
age. The only possible national tariff
issue is between free trade and pro-
tective tariff. Democrats can never
honestly advocate revision. when they
mean abolition. Republicans would
soon see the folly of dividing their
strength between standpatism and
revision, while the Democrats are
fighting for free trade
Tariff revision should be calmly
considered as a matter of expedieney
after the election is over. Ii would
have been considered ere this, but
there were matters of great moment
concerning trust evils. pure food and
railroad regulation, which needed
Immediate attention, and which
would have been used as clubs by
Democratic parliamentarians in con-
gress to force free trade issues on
the majority had the tariff question
been raised.
The most efficient tariff revision
program is for the appointment OF
commission to consider the Dlngley
schedules and hear arguments on all
sides Of the question and recommend
the best schedules to congress. That

"Be it said to the discredit of GER

Mr.. Knott fought a stern and

not be too highly commended or

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.
Costs Nothing to Try.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coil is the safest and most efficient dis
infectant and purifier in nature but
few realize its value when taken into
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of il the better; it is not a
drug a. all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present in
the stomach and intestines and carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetenS the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
Ali druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another. but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
IS in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they
ar composed of the finest powdered
Willow charcoal and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form or rather in
the form of large. pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with
honey.

A Buffalo physician, in speaking of
the benefits OF charcoal, says: 81 ad-
