Wilson'S ideas on the tariff, expressed in the
Democratic platform published in this paper
yesterday, are not particularly alarming. The
difficulty will be to hold a Democratic House
down to a sincere Interpretation of Wilson's
statement that tariff revision should not cripple
legitimate industry.

is a local issue. What suits one state
does not suit another. Both parties
become protectionist when their local
interests are touched. A democrat can
be true to his party and not believe 1t
right to make sweeping tariff reduc-
tons. A republican can be true to his
party. and believe that a just revision
downward is required and must come.
But I don't believe either is loyal

mands continual tariff tinkerings.

would unanimously agree to support q

in u years, with recall clause for bad
behavior or incompetency; and hold
congressional elections for ten years
with the power Of the president ap-
pealing to The people when they do
not do as they should do, and demand
new election. The country would
be saved IRON at least two years out
of every four business trouble due in
a measure to political campaigning.
oh, yes, my friends, you can be a

CLEANING Runa.

1t is better to clean small rugs at
home than send them to professional
cleaners. Small rugs should be taken
to the grass plot and there beaten we'll
with a light whip or rug beaten Do
not turn over and beat on the wrong
side, as that breaks the rug. The beat
ing on the surface brings the dirt to
the top and this should then be swept
off, sweeping with the nap, not against
it, as this wears out the rug. Also when
laying large rugs lay them so that
when they are swept it will always BIT
with the nap. A badly soiled rug may
be washed. Do not attempt to wash
large rugs while on the floor. This
method has been widely advertised and
appeals to the housekeeper because she
need not take up rugs, the water soakS
through, and having no way Of es-
Gaping, dries up, leaving layer of
mud between the warp, which gradual
~ rots the threads while the carpet
looks bright on top. After a rug has
been we'll beaten, the soiled parts may
be washed out with a soution of soap
bark or borax and water, using an
ounce of bark to gallon of water
The rugs are laid kat for this purpose
/ and if it is done carefully and the rugs
then wiped off with d cloth wrung out
Of hot water, until dry, they viii be
clean and bright and in no wise in

TO OPEN A BOOK.

How do you open new book? In
the natural, ordinary way you will tell
yourself No matter how you do it,
this is the right way, and for the bene-
n OF those who want to know as well
a. for the sake of prolonging the life
Of the book the printed irections
would be well placed if they accom-
panied every new publication. Lay the
book back downward on q table or
smooth surface. Press the front cover
down until it touches the table, then
the back cover, holding the leaves in
one hand while you open and turn back
few of the leaves at the front. then at
the back. alternately. pressing them
Gown gently until YOU reach the center
of the volume. This process should be
gone through with several times. A
new book should never be opened vio-
ltntly and the covers bent back. as
this method Is liable not only to break
the back but loosen the leaves.

fine fringe trimmed the edge.
With the softest Of linen thread the
edges of the leaves were filled in with
the long and short stitch, the veins Of
the leaves were done in outline, and
the dots in the border only we're en-
broidered solid, having previously been
slightly padded.
The same method was employed on
every piece included in the set, and
the effect was far more elegant than
if the same amount of work had been
put upon plain linen, for the shading
in the damask figure made a wonder
fully good effect.
This work is so easily and quickly
accomplished it Ia a wonder more
needlewomen have not taken it up.
Any design could be worked out in
the same way, provided it was not too
elaborate.
For a centerpieee, if a simple floral
design be chosen, the work Scan be
done in natural colored wash silks.
Leaves in green, flowers in their nat
ural colors, and in the case of oak
leaves, the rich red, brown and yellow
tones could be employed. The idea is
certainly novel and beautiful

CIRCULATION

That the fiying bsttalions OF the

ferent from the flying battalions of
The past Is made clear by the state
ment o. Hudson Maxim in a recent
lecture upon future warfare.
Air. Maxim said that an army Of
100000 Canadians could be landed
from aenoplanes in the suburbs Of
Buffalo, take the city and then,
mounting the skies again, fly on to
Cleveland before Il could be halted
by any american force not supplied
with aerial machines.
OF course. an optimistic American
could SIS readily show how 100, 600
Americans could take Montreal and
Quebec. Until a and force has had
an opportunity toireceive sten or fifteen
hrisades OF flyers, il is not easy to
estimate just how we'll they would
land and maneuver. or what per cent.
would be able TO join in the second

There doesn't appear 10 be any i'm
mediate prospect Of battles Of this
kind since the machines need be very
much more perfect than they be to-
day, and it will take 1905 mon
some time 10 master the machines and

A Clever Scheme.

AT one of the debuntante teas the
hostess, a woman noted for her fastid-
ious dressing, tore her gown so badly
that rpair was necessary. A friend
accompanied her to her room to sit
and chat while the mending was go
ing on. The maid brought out a sew
ing case filed with needles threaded
with silks and cottons of all colors. 1t
took but moment to select the re-
CURED color and the repairs were
quickly made. The guest thereupon
remarked on the advantage of having
threaded needles ready at hand The
hostess proudly admitted that this was
her own brilliant idea, as it made her
nervous to see a maid try and try
again for a needle eye when she was
hurried. She says she not only has q
stock of needles threaded in black and
white, but on the day a colored frock
is worn needles are threaded in that
color and placed in the work basket. 1t
takes only few moments on bright
day to thread the needles, and the sys-
TEN really saves time, eyesight and,
most precious of all, patience.

Ihe statements show numerous other
articles or products Of the islands, in
dicating that the recent attempts at
diversi1cation OF production have
been at least moderately successful
The value Of canned pIneapples sent
to tho United States alone in the
1iscsl YEAR 1911 was over million
dollars; 81 rice, the quantity shipped
TO this country from Hawaii in that
year was S 2-S million pounds; Of
coffee, 3-4 million pounds; Of hides
4nd skins, l IL million pounds; Of
bananas, 900 punches; while Of
manufactures of wood the value of
the shipments in 1911 was about s14e,-
500. BY far the largest item OF ship
ment to the United States is sugar,
valued in the fiscal year 1911 at
IS "a million dollars, and AZ 2-3 mill
lion in 1910. against l IA million in
1875, the year of the reciprocity treaty.
Practically all the imports into the
Hawaiian islands are from the United
States, except a few articles, required
by local conditions, which cannot be
obtained in This country. The imports
Of foreign merchandise amounted to
about million dollars, made up chief
ly Of nitrates from the western coast
of South America, and Japanese prod
ucts imported from Japan to meet the
demands Of the 10000 persons of jap
anese birth or parentage now living
in the islands. The census Of 1910
shows the population of the Hawaiian
islands at 1s1,SO7, Of which 70,5O0 are
classed az Japanese, $4,000 as "Ha-
waiian," $4,000 as Portuguese, 'nd
21,50o as Chinese. The number Of
persons born in the United States re-
siding in Hawaii in 1910 has not yet
been announced by the census Of that
year, the figures of 1900 having been
stated at 1853. The total population
has grown from $4,000 in 1878 to 1872
900 in 1910, the growth Of the foreign
population during the period being
from $500 t. 153,SOO, while the num-
Der of Hawaiians declined from 51,60O
in 1872 to $500 in 1910.
The figures CT trade show a continu-
Gus excess of exports over imports.
In 1875 the excess Of exports over i'm
ports was s407 ,265; in 1899, million
dollars; in 1901, 1-S million; and in
1911, IA IL million. Imports have
increased from / 2-3 million dollars

from million to AZ 2S million dol

WHERE THE RED GROSS
HANDICAPPED.

The Red Cross has no place for its
humane work where there is civil war
since the treaties do not require either
faction TO recognize it.
During the progress Of the recent
revolution IN Mexico, the American
Red Cross offered its services to the
Mexican government, but its offer
could not be accepted. AS a result,
the American Red Cross confined its
activities to the boundary line be-
tween the United States and Mexico.
caring for sick and wounded soldiers
and destitute refugees who were
the risk Of venturing over the line,
without official protection, when the
demands of humanity were imperative,
as was the case at Juarez, Nogales,
Tia Juana and elsewhere.
The importance OF rigid govern
mental control OF the use Of the Red
Cross is Well illustrated by the pres
emit condition in China where no off,
cial supervision Of such use exists.
Many different unauthorized organic
atoms are using the emblem in the
hope Of protecting the lives and prop
erty Of their members. Since no re-
strictions on this use are enforced, the
result is that the emblem has lost
its sacred character in a farcical and
pathetic scramble for a protection
which it cannot give. The following
extract from a private letter from
Wuchang, China, bears directly upon
this point:
"All sorts Of people are using the
flag and the badge who have no right
to do SO, and many seem to think
that subscription entities them to
full immunity and protection. The
Red Cross is SO badly abused by mis-
use through people bringing their val
uables to be stored under its aegis,
that presently 1t is feared the whole
population will hoist the sign at the
last extremity as a last resort"
At the ninth international Red Cross
conference, TO be held in Washington
next May, this omission Of the treaty
Of Geneva 10 provide for Red Cross
operations in civil war will probably
be one OF the important topics for
discussion. Representatives Of forty
or more countries will participate in
this conference.
