The Difference.

Dan Pinchback and John ALL
bright are subscribers of this paper.
Dan came in the other day to en-
quire if his time was out. 1t was

pleaded hard times and allowed he

could read anyway. Besides $1.00
was too much for it. He got the

per, for fifty cents per year. FIVE
wanted to take that all right; il not
stop 'er. We stopped 'er and the
next week his wife came in and re-
newed. John Albright followed
Dan Pinchback into our sanctum.
John was glad to see us. He told
us when he began taking our paper,
1t took a barrel of corn, four BUSH
els of potatoes, two bushels of
wheat, twenty-five pounds of pork.
twelve pounds of butter and TWEEN
ty dozen of eggs to pay for it a
year. Now l can get it for BUSH
ell of corn, bushel of wheat, twelve
pounds of pork, three pounds of
butter and four dozen eggs. It's a
good thing my way, but it's pretty
tough on you. | don't see how you
can afford it; raally you ought to
have $500 per year - it's worth it,
everything else doubled in price.
Renew my subscription and semi it

Protecting a Robber Trust.

In his striking article on tariff
matters in Human Life for Feb
ruary, Alfred Henry Lewis says
When an infant industry" gets so
big and strong that 1t climbs the
line fence and wallops the neigh
bors' young ones in those neighbors'
own back yards, it hardly needs
protection
Come back with me to that
question of sugar protection 1t
was but a few weeks ago when the
Sugar Trust put out these illumi-
mating figures. Naming that 2
cents a round (tariff) Grade ofsugar
it quoted it for the home market at
4 As cents q pound, and for exporta-
ton at 26C cents.

The Price of Wheat.

If Russia produced last year the
greatest crop of wheat ever grown
in any country, and if the aggre-
gate of the worlds wheat crop last
year showed a gain of nearly AGO.
000,000 bushels, or 18 per cent.
what is keeping up the price of
wheat? When Patten was trying to
get the farmers to hold their grain
so that he could corner so much of
it as the Chicago elevators held he
assured the world that wheat would
reach So last fall. The price, on
the contrary, got down below 81
but it has been moving upward
since then, and yet the worlds sup
plies must be ample if any faith be
put in official statistics, for the
world was not on a short allowance
of bread year ago, and an increase
of 1897, 100000 bushels in its wheat
crop Is very large. The Russian
figures are particularly important
because the peasantry of that coun-
try live mainly on inferior grains,
and the greater part of the wheat
is exported. If the crop last year
reached 100000 bushels or 1OO,-
100000 bushels beyond any prece-
dent, the price in the international
markets ought to be depressed. We
have always eaten wheat bread; it
is possible that the people of other
countries are changing from infer
ior grains to wheat to an extent
that absorbs the increased produc-
tion.- Quincy Herald.

Too Much Honey.

Luther M. Burbank the plant
wizard of California, said of honey
apropos of a flower that bees love:
This flower grows abundantly
near Santa Barbara, and there was
once young Californian who often
visited a leading Santa Barbara
hotel because they have such ex-
cellent honey there-a honey the
bees make from this flower
We'll the young man got mar
ried in due course, and the wedding
itinery must include Santa Barbara,
so that the bride might taste this
superb honey.
But the first morning at the
Santa Barbara hotel there was no
honey on the breakfast table. The
bridegroom frowned. He called the
old familiar waiter over to him.
Where's my honey?' he de-
manded.
The waiter hesitated. looked
awkwardly at the bride, then bent
toward the young mans ear and
in a stage whisper stammered:

When Candy is Good For a Child.

The average healthy child or ten
or twelve should be able to eat of
pure candy the equivalent in weight
of two or three humps of sugar after
his midday meal. This, however,
should not be given him unless
other proper foods, in sufficient
quantity, are eaten, and should
never be allowed between meals.
Butter-taffy and molaSses candy,
made at home of pure materials,
are especially to be recommended,
and may be considered valuable
articles of food.-Jean Williams, M.

ward making life worth while,
That cost the least and does the
most, is just a pleasant smile,
The smile that bubbles from a heart
that loves its fellow-men
viii drive away the cloud of gloom
and coax the sun again,
It's full of worth and goodness, too,
with manly kindness blent
It's worth a million dollars, and
doesn't cost a cent. From the
book Heart Throbs," IN National
Magazine for February.
