The Metric System.

Nothing stands more in the
way of our becoming the great
est exporting country of the
world in all kinds of manufac-
tured products than our general
unwillingness to discard our cum
bersome system of weights and
measures for a better one. It
has already caused many a
branch of trade to be restricted
to supplying the home market;
and unless we are farsighted and
enterprising enough to adapt
ourselves to the ways and the
wants of the peoples with whom
we might traffic, we shall be left
far behind in the intense compe-
.tition that lies before US. 1t may
not be widely known that a large
part of the trade that we have
wrested from other countries has
been obtained by men who were
wise enough to modify their ma
chinery and to adopt the system
of measurement in use on other
continents.
We jeer at the conservatism of
our British cousins who adhere
to their acknowledgements
pence currency and wonder why
they do not abandon it for the
convenient and scientific decimal
system. Yet we cling obstinately
to tables of weights and meas
ures that are more complicated
than their money tables. Our
half-dozen measures of weight,
length and capacity are based on
different units, and the units
have no relation 10 one another
two tables of weight that do
not agree, a liquid and a dry
measure of capacity, neither of
which can be stated in terms of
q perfect cube, and a measure of
length based on a unit that is a
definite fraction of nothing in
nature.
The only excuse for our con-
tinuing to use such a cumbrous
system is that we are wonted to
it. and that i would be hard to
change our habit; but that is the
excuse for the British currency
system, and in that case we %
not think it sufficient. 1t is OBJ
iected to the change that it can
never be made complete, for 1t is

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

When packing a trunk for travelling
have a case Of different eolored cloth
for each kind Of garment.
A table Of weights and measures,
typewritien and framed under glass,
should be hung in every htchen.
Allow from four 10 six eggs To each
quart Of milk in making a custard to
be turned from the mold.
To take disagreeable medicine, cat
one or two cloves or hold ice in the
mouth until the tongue Is chilled.
Before wearing your rubbers rub
them well with vaseline. Let them re-
main a few days before wearing them.
Wash cOlored silks in cold water and
a moderate amount OF soap. DO not rub
the soap directly on the fabric.
When hanging pictures, hang facing
the wall, then turn over. This crosses
the wire and prevents slipping.
Taking some of the pictures down
as hot weather approaches will help
to make the house look cooler.
