Would Take Time,

A minister was called to the bed
side of very sick man in order to
give him consolation. The lawyer was
also in the room, having just finished
making out the will.
The minister, who had not great re-
spect for the sick man on account of
his mean ways, nevertheless did his
duty, and asked him what it was he
desired.
"Well," he replied, 81 have great

Coalition Ministries.

Since the formation in 1852 of the
famous coalition cabinet which went
to pieces during the Crimean war, but
served it's purpose admirably for two
years, there has been no such radi-
cal change In British ministry as
that of recent date. That ministry
was created, like the new one, with
out the formality of a general cleo
ton, and it included, with the excep-
ton of Lord Derby and Mr.. Disraeli,
every man of genuine ability as a
leader in both the great parties. Pal
merstons wGr cabinet, which succeed
ed it, in the excitement caused by
Roebuck's charges of army misman-
agement, was wholly tory. The coali-
ton, in later years, of the liberal I'M
ionists with the conservatives was
not of so great political significance.
The so-called liberal unionists who left
the party of Mr. Gladstone and the
Duke of Devonshire because of their
opposition to Irish home rule have
never since had separate political
existence. The cabinet of the Mar
quis of Salisbury, to which they be-
longed, survived all the political OPP
position engendered by the mistakes
of the Boer war.

THE TARIFF Problem
It Promises to Be the Keynote of
Next National Campaign.
Simmons-UnderWoo Law VIII Be
Held Responsible for Lack of EN-
ployment for Thousands of
Workingmen.

Speaking for the Pacific Northwest
the Spokane Spokesman-Review in
Weighs against the new fiscal policy
of the United States for which the
existing federal administration is re-
sponsible. 1t sums up the situation
at the present moment as follows:
Passage of the SimmonsU Underwood
tariff bill by the Democratic party
carried the United States long way
toward the ultimate Democratic goal
of free trade. That fact stands out in
strong relief in a recent department of
commerce review of the country's for
e1gn trade. Prior to the enactment of
the new law import; were almost
evenly divided between the dutiable
list and the free list. For example, of
the total imports tin 1910, $755,S11,-
1896 were free of duty, and 1901 ,636,034
were dutiable in 1911, $776,s72,5 and
$750,253,596 respectively. But in 1914,
first full calendar year under the new
tariff law, imports dut.' free totaled
81, 127,5 02,699 as against $691 ,3S8,2S9
dutiable. In February, this year, duty
free imports were nearly twice as
much as dutiable imports-in round
numbers SS0,O00,000 and S45, 100000
respectively
1t asserts that on this record the
presidential campaign of 1916 will be
vigorously contested between the free
traders and the advocates of protec-
ton, and that the issue will be espe-
c1ally keen in the states of the Pa
citic Northwest, where the free trade
theories of the Democracy are given
their most sweeping application" But
if disgruntlement with Democratic
free trade notions is active now, it
will be much more active under condi-
lions that are sure to arise after the
war. Then there will be a sharper
struggle than ever by Europeans for
advantage in American markets, and
the difference between the high wages
current here and the low wages gen
orally current in Europe will tend
to put American manufacturers out of
business and throw American work
ingmen out of employment unless
there is a speedy restoration of the
protective principle in American tariff
laws.

HAD CUACKS AS FOUNDATION
German Science, So Famous Today, Is
Credited With Exceedingly Mod
est Beginning.

German medical science is world
famed and has proved a godsend to
mankind. Yet the science may be said
to have been founded by the quacks
of former centuries, for, while quack-
cry has always fiourished in all coun-
tries, Germany was long the leader in
turning out practitioners of this dubi-
GUS profession. They were often men
of Imagination akin to genius, ard
they travelled all over Europe. A ma
. jority of the celebrated quacks of
England were Germans, and their
methods of advertising their cures"
were very similar to those of the I'm
dian medicine men" who still flourish
in the rural districts of America.
Having studied over Galem, Hypo-
crates, Albumazer and Paracelsus, l
am now become the Esculapius of the
age" modestly announced one medi-
eval quack, according to an early
play, "having been educated at twelve
Kingdoms and been counselor to the
counselors of several monarcks. By
tue earnest prayers OIL several lOruS,
earls, dukes and honorable person
ages I have been at last prevailed
upon to oblige the world with this no.

old, blind or lame, deaf or dumb, cur
able or incurable, may know where

paralytic paroxysms, palpitations Of
the pericardium, empyemas, syncopes
and nasieties, arising either from a
plethory or a cachochymy, veryiginous

cdontalgic or podaAsical inflammations
and the entire legion of tethnerous
This is natures palladium, health's
and it works seven manner
of ways, as nature requires, for 1t
scorns to be confined to any particular
mode of operation"
Yet from those quacks arose the
mighty army of German scientists
whose researches have been the marvel
and the benefaction of the whole
world.

WHAT THE AUTO CosTs VERMONT -
In this poverty-stricken state of Yer
mont there are 10000 automobiles and
motor vehicles, or one to every thirty
eight persons about. At fair estimate
of their purchase price, this represents
an expenditure of about IS, 0e0, 900, nearly
all of which has been made within the
past eight years. 1t is too bad that the
bulk of this sum has had TO go outside

Raising State Pork

The State piggery on the Duxbury
farm, owned by the State, continues to
be very interesting place, as we'll as a
practical one in supplying the patients
at Vermont State hospital in Waterbury
with food. At present there are 159 pigs
from four to nine weeks of age and 143
hogs. making total of 902, the largest
number yet kept. These are White Ches-
ter, which are thought to mature more
quickly and are nicely housed in this up
to-date building, which contains "a pens,
each 10 by 10 feet.
At this time of year the hogs are out
in the pasture. Only small amount of
grain per head is fed these creatures, as
they are raised largely from the refuse
from the institution. This is cooked or
heated in cookroom "a feet square. In
this way the pork is produced with very
little expense. One hundred and forty
have been butchered within year, there
being now an average of three week.
The piggery is nicely kept, a large
amount of water being used in washing
the same and all pains possible is taken
by Walter Irish, under direction of the
State farmer, who cares for them, that
everything may be done to keep the
creatures well. The loss in numbers is
very small compared with thes numbers
kept
The slaughter house is near the pig
gerry, all butchery being done by Mr.. |
Irish. Fifty head of beef have also been
here the past year for use in
the institution. These were not all raised,
however, on the farms. At present
the State owns here 1870 head of cattle,
half of these being young cattle.
The problem of supplying meat for the
people in this institution seems nicely
managed. With this number of cattle
md 302 swine, there does not seem to be
any danger of a meat famine.
