We're always crying wildly for the
pies like mother made"
And we lay our disappointments
where they never should be
laid;
Oft we're boasting OF the wond'rous
bread that mother used to
bake"
And we growl about our modern
cooks, and call each one a fake.
The secret of their failures in this
poem" now is woven
No victuals can be quite as good as
those from old brick oven.

Arrested for Non-Support
And Released on Parole.

On Tuesday morning George SWEET
mizer was brought before Justice OF
the Peace Catterall charged by his
wife with non-support. 1t appears
that two years ago he was brought
before Justice zimmerman on the
same charge, and was released on
parole under the promise that he
would provide for his wife and in
fant son.
When he was brought before JUS
tice Catterall on Tuesday the wife
of the unfortunate man was not dis
posed to press the charge, and, al
though according to the evidence
the Justice might have committed
him to the county jail, he gave
the man a timely lecture coupled
with a warning that hereafter there
will be no more arrests. He will be
held under parole, and if he does not
provide for his family he will be
committed to Jail forthwith.
Mr.. Swetmizer is a man about So
years of age. He is healthy and
strong, and there appear to be no
extenuating circumstances in his
case. He has lived in Hawley about
years. He has worked in the glass
factory as handy MAJ. and recently
he worked about ono of our livery
stables. The man seems to be well
intentioned, and probably will here
after do what is manly and right to-
wards his worthy and forgiving wife
and his four-year-old son.

Political Shut Down

There may be some Interrupt
tions Of business while manu-
featuring is adjusting itself to
new conditions, bat the rcduc-
tions in the Underwood bill are
not revolutionary. and the
adoption of manufacturing to
the new tariff cannot involve
radical changes or last very
long
Ii any manufacturers contem-
plate reductions of wages or the
closing of the factories for pol
itical effect they had better
think again. The public will
have something besides their
statement Of the necessity Of
such action The manufactur-
ers Of pottery have been partic-
ularly insistent that they could
not live and pay present wages
under the new tariff. and the
Department of Commerce will
undertake. 20 find out how far
they are right in their opinion
If they are right the duties on
earthenware viii BE- restored
beyond doubt.
But il has never been possible
to reduce any duty without loud
protests by the beneficiary that
he would have to take it out of
wages or make an assignment
In the few instances when there
has been any opportunity of
testing this it has been found
that the tariff beneiiciaries were
needlessly alarmed Thelniury
to them was exaggerated where
it was not imaginary II the
manufacturers Of pottery or any
other article are entitled to a
subsidy from the American peo-
pie to keep them in business it'll
is only common sense that the
agents of the Government
should ascertain the fact The
country must have the oppor-
tunity Of looking into bust
ness to see whether il is really
dependent upon public aid.
According to the censu- there
is less than 40 cents worth Of
wages in dollars worth Of
crockery This percentage is
exceptionally high on account
Of the small value of the ma
terial. In most lines Of manu-
facture it does not run over -
or . per cent, and in many it'll
IS less than % per cent. The
customs duties now collected
on the classes Of crockery that
are most imported are 80 and
80 per cent Approximately.
therefore. a piece of earthen-
ware costing in Europe 90 3
cents would be taxed 80 and
sold for 81 \ domestic article
selling for = would have paid
not quite 20 cents in wages If
the duty must be more than the
whole domestic wage proof is
required. Philadelphia Record
