Wordsworth on Real Estate.

There is an interesting story OF
Wordsworth, who went to call on Miss
Harriet Martineau at Ambleside. In
the house which she had built and laid
out. writes A. c. Benson in the Cen
fury Magazine. There was a gathering
of neighbors present, and Wordsworth
stood for a long time at the window
contemplating the beautiful landscape
outside. Then he turned to the party
and said:
Miss Martineau, / congratulate you
on your beautiful little domain. The
views are wonderful. and it will turn
out to be the wisest thing you ever did
In FOUR life"
He paused for a moment. and the
guests expected some comment on the
uplifting effects of communion with
nature, but Wordsworth, with a fine
gesture, continued:
Your property will certainly be
trebled In value within the next ten
years."

NEW TARIFF AND COST OF
LIVING

There is considerable comment il
the current press over the fact that al
though the Underwood tariff law has
been in effect for several weeks the
cost of living is still soaring. But LEI
us be patient. The new tariff law will
certainly reduce the cost of living
but for every per cent of reduction
there will be more than a correspond
ing reduction in wages.
The greatest cost in everything con
sumed and produced in any country is
labor. During the past 25 years labor
has doubled in price, but today ii
does not cost anything like twice as
much to live as it did at the time men
toned.
Today it is impossible to borrow a
dollar at a bank, and indications are
that we are confronted with a repeti-
tion of the times of 1894. With the
banks holding on to the money bust
ness men and manufacturers will be
obliged to c%urtail the volume of their
business and reduce wages. Practical
" the entire amount taken eff the
price of products of all kinds will be
charged up to labor, and it will not be
a great while before the people will
find an appreciable reduction in the
cost of living. At the same time, how.
ever, they will find increased diff
Guilty in obtaining this lesser price.
A people cannot legislate themselves
into wealth and prosperity. All they
can hope to do is to enact laws that
win give them their home market and
al opportunity to sell their products
to the best advantage, without enter
ing into foreign competition. These
laws they had enjoyed under success
sive Republican administrations since
Cleveland's last term in office until
the passage of the Ubiquitous Under

solely to redeem the campaign prom

Orioin Of Life AGAIN.

Others besides DR.. Bastian have
been working upon the question of the
origin of life. At the meeting of the
British Association DIR. Benjamin
Moore OF Liverpool made the claim
that strong sunlight or the light from

solutions can convert the lifeless into
living matter.
Sir Oliver Lodge objected that the

LOWEST TARIFF IN rs YEARS

The Underwood tariff bull has been
enacted. 1t is a law and this country
is now doing business under the lowest
tariff rates that have existed in the
past rs years. As yet, of course, no
one has noted any appreeiable decrease
Ia the cost of living.
This new tariff law should be re
garded simply as an experiment. A
majority of the people did not vote
for it; but nevertheless il has been
enacted by representatives elected by
the voters. If it fails to come up to
expectations in results it will be re-
pealed.
The theory that the new tariff Law is
going to greatly improve our foreign
trade is simply a dream. Trade is de-
veloped by business men and never by
laws.
In the past 90 years Germany's for
eign trade has increased about ten
times as fast as England's S, yet Ger

tive tariff and England under practi-
eally free trade. The foreign trade
of the United States has grown also
and the balance has been heavily in
our favor, while that of the other two
countries mentioned has been against
them.
Undoubtedly a large volume of
business can be done in this country
regardless of tariff regulations. We
can develop a big foreign trade; but
before We can largely increase our ex-
ports of manufactures and undersell
other countries it will be necessary to
being about a general reduction OF
wages.
Workingmen in the United States
vote, and, therefore il is hardly prob.
able that they will be found willing
to accept smaller compensation for
their services in the interest of mer-
chants who are eu~ltivating the foreign
market.

PEARLS FIND READY MARKET
Slightly Second in Demand to
Deep Water Products.

Arkansas is the greatest pearl pro-
ducing state in the Union. and hun
dreds of men engage in the pearl
hunt. II is said that the fresh water
pearl of Arkansas of the highest class
cannot be distinguished from the fin
est deep sea jewel. Throughout the
south generally thousands of people
follow the pearl fishing industry and
make a comfortable living at 1t. Up
to a few years g the jewel wealth
contained in the river beds of the
Mississippi valley was completely lid
den. 1t was not supposed that the
fresh water mussel was a pearl bear
er. or that 1t had any value except for
fish bait.
The fresh water mussel is sought
now not only for the precious stone 1t
may have hidden in its shell, but for
the shell itself, which is manufac-
tured into stick pins. cuff links. and
buttons of every description. The
shell fisheries have for years extend
ed far up the Mississippi river. A re-
cen writer on the subject puts fresh
water pearls into four classifications
true pearls. baroques. slugs. and
chicken feed.
The first, OF true. pearls are of a
definite shape, and regular form.
round. oval, or pear shaped. These
command the highest prices. Baroques
are pearls of irregular form. Slugs
are low grade %baroques. The smaller
size. the kind used in inexpensive
though genuine and nea jewelry. go
by the professional name of chicken
feed.

To Clean Valuable Glass.

One can never be careful enough in
cleaning valuable objects dart Of all
kinds. says the Pail Mall Gazette,
Many exquisite pieces have been en-.
tirely spoiled through cleaning being
accomplished unintelligently. Old glass
counts among the most precious Of
possessions. and for its cleaning chem
icals must never be used, because they
remove that dull blush gloss which Is
always q characteristic Of antique
specimens and is a point highly priced
by connoisseurs. II cleaning really
becomes necessary use powdered egg
shells. These must be ground very
fine, with no gritty pieces remaining to
scratch the glass. Mix with tepid wa
ter Into thin paste and with this rub
the glass. rinse with clear water after.
ward and dry with a soft leather. This
is the only really reliable way Of clean
ing valuable glass and Ii method
