Thou shalt nut be content to go about thy business looking like a bum, fcr thou shouldst know that thy personal appearance is better than a letter of recommendation. III. Thou shalt not try to make excuses, nor shalt thou say to those that chide thee, "I don't think." IV. Thou shalt not wait to be told what thou shalt do, nor in what manner thou shalt do it, for thus may thy days be long in the joy which fortune hath given thee. V.

This applies to individuals as well as to towns or communities collectively. Small town people sometimes fall into the habit of running down their own place in conversation.

And so when the Tariff duties on im ported Scotch hosiery were increased in ISStO there was a terrible hullabaloo set up about the increase it would occasion in the price of all Scotch hosiery. A Freeport merchant, William Walton, who always prided himself in keeping for sale in his store the .very best of anything made anywhere in the world, laid in an increased stock of Scotch hosiery, sure that the price would be increased. But there was no increase in price. Mr. Walton himself told us that the makers of Scotch hosiery sent eirculars to the American merchants that the price would not be increased they would pay the increased Tariff du ties, and lay down their goods in the American market at the same price as formerly. Just now a terrible hullabaloo is set up about the increase in the Tariff du ties proposed in the Payne bill now pending in Congress, and foolish women are signing petitions against it. We do not pretend to know, and we do not be lieve that one woman in a thousand knows whether the Tariff duties on stockings ought to be increased or not, nor do we know that there will be any increase of the Tariff duties on import ed stockings when the bill is finally passed or not. But we do know that tie Tariff duties on imported stockings ought to be increased if the result shall be, as in the case of tin, that all the stockings worn in America shall be made in America by American working men who are paid American wages, and the price of stockings to those who wear them will be cheaper than ever before. The Tariff always works that way. It did work that way in the case of tin; it did work that way in the case of steel railway rails; it always works thit way. -Freeport, (111.) Jonrnnl.
