MDe wash room's out dat away, sab," explained the African, point ing to the other end of the car. "Wash room, nothin'," growled the passenger. "I'm looking ferthe bar room. You must think I'm a republican." WHAT MR. SPRINGER WOULD DO FOR THE FARMER. Some one pointed out to Mr. Springer that we collected $6,500,000 of revenue last year from wool which his bill proposes to admit free, and that his scaling down of duties on other things involved a further reduction of revenue, on la9t year's importation as a basis, of $19,500,CC0 more. He was re minded that the government needed every cent collected under existing laws for legitimate expenditure and asked how the loss of revenue fore shadowed in his free wool bill was to be made up. "O, there will be no loss of revenue," he in effect replied. "The lower duties on woolens and worsteds will invite larger importa tions, so that just as much revenue will result from the lower rates as was last year obtained from the McKinley duties. Do the American people realize the signification of that brief state ment? Last year we imported 43,000,000 dollar's worth of wool manufac tures. At the decreased rates fixed in the Springer bill they average about 36 per cent on last years s imports as a basis we should have to import 115,000,000 dollar's worth, an increase of 72,C00,CC0 dollars over 1891, in order to make up the $26,000,000 deficiency in "revenue. This, remember is what Mr. Springer himself says .would take place. - What effect would this increase in imported goods have on domes tic industry? First, as to the farmer: The $72,- 000,000, increase in manufactured wool would . contain 216,000,000, pounds of raw wool, which would come in to take the place of 62,000, 000 dollars worth of goods now made in this country of domestic wool, and to reduce the demand tor the product of our own sheep growers by 216,000,000 pounds. But this is not all. Since Mr. Springer admits that a mere de crease in duties will increase im ports so enormously, certainly he cannot deny that his removing the whole duty from raw wool will tend to increase imports of it also. At the very least we should import no less ot foreign raw wool than was imported last year, when the amount was 119,000,000 pounds. Of this 85,000,000 pounds were car pet wool which we should have to import any way, since it is not and, as free traders, contend, can not be successfully produced here. We consume, at a liberal esti mate, 600,000,000 pounds of raw wool in the United States.. We can safely assume that the amount would not go above that figure the first year of Mr. Springer's policy if it should -be inaugurated by the congress. -Now, let us see where Ihe farmer would come out: There would be imported of manufac tures of wol: Pounds. $(3,CC3,0C0, last year's amount, rep resenting of raw wool 129,000,000 Plus $72,0U0,OliO, Mr. Springer' in crease, representing of raw wool 216,CCD,OtO There would be imported of raw wool: ClothiuK and combing, last year's amount 33,000,000 Carpet "wools, which we must import.... 86,000,000 Total imports of wool 464,000,000 Total demand for wool in the United States 600.000.0C0 Difference, to be supplied by American farmers.. 136,000,000 But they raised last year 33.000,000 Difference, or shrinkage in domes- . tic-deoutud.. ... ..167,00S00 Here would be 167,000,000 pounds of American farmers' wool left on their hands after the home market had been fully supplied. What would they do with it? There is but one answer. They must sell it for what it would bring low enough to undersell the cheapest wool in the world. The existence of such and enormous surplus, over half of the whole domestic product, would send .the market so low that farmers would again slaughter their flocks for tallow. Never again would good times return for our sheep owners while the free wool policy pre vailed. Even when domestic prod uction had fallen the necessary 158,000,000 pounds, the pressure of cheap Australian, African and Argentine wool upon the market would continually tend to send prices even lower and lower till American sheep raising was-con fined to the semi-desert plains of the west. There it might be pos sible for some wool to be grown, but our main dependence must be upon foreign wools. This is the inevitable logic of Mr. Springer's admission, and it would be well for American farmers to understand what it means to them Economist The Hndomeet Lady In Plattsmouth Kemaneu to. a menu me omer day that she knew Kemp's Balsan tor the throat ana lungs was a su perior- remedy, as it stopped ner cough instantly when other cough remedies had no effect whatever.

No healthy person need fear any dangerous consequences from an attack of la grippe if properly treated. It is much the same as a severe cold and requires precisely the same treatment. Kemam auiet ly at home and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as directed for a se vere cold and a prompt and com olete recovery is sure to follow. This remedy also counteracts any tendency ot la grippe to result in pneumonia. Among tne many thousands wko have used it during the epidemics ot tne past two years we have yet to learn of a single case that has not recovered or that has resulted in pneumonia. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by F.

Dr. Arabella Kenealy, a noted phy sician of London, has, from her special practical medical experience among women tied need the theory that wo men must make a choice between pro fessional and married life. She says: women should not attempt to carry on a profession after marriage. I mean the women of the upper and middle classes who go into the professions. It is not necessary that they should be bread winners; that duty should de volve upon the husband, and I am con fident that the rising generation would be healthier and stronger in every way if the mbthers would exert themselves less. I look anxiously at every baby that comes under my;b servation in the hdpe that I shall find some infprovement in the type, some increase in stamina, compared with the generation that has preceded -it; but instead of this there is only steady deterioration observable. This deteri oration is particularly noticeable among the children of very active mothers. The cleverest and most highly educated women who take the most active part in public affairs, have the most weakly and puny children. Another thing, women are going in to too active forms of exercise. When a young married woman tells me that she is captain of a cricket eleven or a football team, I can only say I am per fectly aghast. Women must place before themselves the alternative, te earn their living, to exercise their faculties, and to gratify their ambitions in a professional career or to become good wives and mothers, and if they choose the domestic life they must recognize that they must sacrince their personal happiness and ambition in the future happiness and success of their childre n. Germany Not Woman's Country. "Germany is a man's country," said a titled German lady. "Men will die for their sweethearts, but their wives must live for them. If you marry a poor man he expects you to blacken his boots. If you wed a rich man he expects you to do the same mentally. A German srirl is well educated in books, needlework, and housekeeping. She seems bright enough until she settles down into a 'hausmutter,' with few ideas beyond her kitchen and nursery, and no topics of conversation except the iniquity of her servants and the extravagance of her neighbors. The result is that the women are in ferior to the men, and the men argu mentative, self-opinionated, and - ego tistical. And they all believe, from the Kaiser down, that women were created simply to cater to their fancies and bring more men into the world for other women to wait upon, uur actors are always better than our ac tresses, our tenors and baritones out shine our sopranos and contraltos, even our men ballet dancers are more agile than their short-skirted colleagues, and in the great land of scholars, and philo sophers, and writers there are lewer women of note in educational or liter ary standing than in any of the other AivtKivar) lAiinttnAO " The Bigst Bowlders. Accepting reported measurements. the largest erratic block or bowlder as d . . . . . . . , , yet recognized in the united states, and probably in the world, is in the town of Madison. N. 11., and, ac cording to Prof. Crosby of the Boston Institute of Technology, has the fol lowing maximum dimensions: Length, 89 feet; width, in excess of 45 feet; height. 30 to 37 feet; contents, 90,000 cubic feet, and probable weight, 15, 800,000 pounds, or 7,650 tons. Next to this in size is undoubtedly the great rock in the town of Montville, New London county, Conn., generally known by its Indian designation as "Sheegan." and also as "Monegan." In the opinion of some this rock is an isolated granite protuberance, and not a true "erratic" or bowlder, but recent examinations have seemed to com- f letely negative the first supposition, ts approximate maximum dimensions are: Length, 75 feet; width, 58 feet; height, 60 feet; contents 70,000 cubic feet; weight 6,000 tons. If allowance be made for an immense fragment which has fallen from its northeast side, the dimensions and ' cubic con tents of "Sheegan" would approximate more closely to those of the Madison bowlder. One point that goes far toward substantiating the claim on be half of the "Sheegan" rock that it is a true bowlder is the number of un doubted bowlders of an immense size and of the same granite which exists in comparative proximity. Leprosy in Spain. Leprosr is increasing at an alarming rate in Spain. From Alcanta it is re ported that several villages are afflict ed with the terrible malady. In Beni dorm there are eight families every member of which is a leper. At Gata the number of lepers is so great that a hospital to be built for them, and at other points the plague is increasing in a frightful manner and the doctors are unable to cope with it.
