referring to President Cleveland's message ,
says : "Mot often has nn American presi
dent delivered so statesmanlike u message.
It is courageous throughout , und reveals
that the president has u strong mind with u
dollnltc policy. Ho risks giving offense to
thonnmlrois of spread-eagleism by repudi
ating n breach of international etiquette. "
In reference to Admiral Stuntou's salute
of the Mag Hying from u rebel war ship in
Hlo do Janeiro and the ndmlralM recall , the
Globe says : "This amende to llrazll was
followed by very friendly allusions lo Great
Britain , much to the distaste ot the Irish
Americans , while lurthcr n still smarter
rebuff was administered to Hint-section by
the unnouni'cnicnt that President Cleveland
had resolved to re-establish the stutus quo
in Hawaii. That may provo more dinicult ,
perhaps , than ho seems to consider , but be
deserves great credit all the sumo for refus
ing to sanction unnoxattonlst proceedings ,
which undoubtedly went In the teeth ot
treaty obligations.
' 'His resolve to do what ho can to carry
forward the Nicar.igiui canal under dis
tinctly American auspices Is perfectly legit
imate. If our enterprising cousins llko to
spend money that way they uro perfectly
entitled to do so. England can well afford
to wish them success. Our commercial in-
terjsU would not sutTcr , .but very much
the contrary , wore u short cut to the Pacific
provided instead of u long voyage nround
the Horn. Of course , the situation would
b wholly different wcro the United States
lo rasn-vo the canal to the exclusive use of
Amcrlc n .shipping. But the president
guarantees that the cannl would be equally
open to the ships of ull nations. "
'I he Globe nlso remarks thut u matter
deserving the attention of the world is that
u dclicit of 5,000,000 or . 0.000,000 looms in
sight and attributes this fact to an Inflated
currency , to the McKlnlcy bill and to silver
purchases.
"Thut , " the Globe continues , "tho
Americans will easily bo able to bear this
additloual burden docs not require proof j
but it will strengthen the cause of prolcc-
tlon. Mr. Cleveland Is happily courageous
in facing the dllllcultics and if ho is able to
give effect to his statesmanlike scheme the
United States will ho on the -high road to
free trade. "
Frank nnd Honest.
The Pall Mull Gazette hails the president's
message us a good departure , saying : "Pres
ident Cleveland's frauIt , honest statement
regarding Hawaii may well cause ox-Presi
dent Harrison to hide his head In order lo
hide his blushes. It is evident that Mr.
Cleveland , like most American politicians ,
still hankers after bimetallism. Ilo shows
to the best advantage when talking of the
tariff , nnd practically announces his fnith in
the principles of free trudo. But the battle
begun , to have McKlnley back and his tariff
in force would bo u disaster to the United
Stutes nnd to the trade of the world. "
Tne St. Jambs' Gazette says President
Cleveland's tone toward foreign states con
trasts agreeably with that adopted by his
predecessors uud himself. The paper adds :
'It is enough that ho is now courteous to us
and scrupulously fair to Brazil imd Hawaii.
Whether the unlucicy royal fumily of Honolulu
lulu will bo unv hotter oil for the president's
disavowal of Minister Stevens und his ucts
Is an inquiry which need not bo pursued.
The most , remarkable passages of the mes
sage uro those devoted to the tariff und
financial position. " The St. .Tames1 Gazette
applauds President Cleveland's courage.

The Brownsmiths have not been mar
ried long ; they live in u suburban town
in tlio Queen Anne house to wliich they
are in tlio habit of inviting1 thefV friends
from the city , apparently for nlio pur
pose of telling them bow well the trains
are arranged and that they intend to
raise all their own vegetables next year.
Mr. Brownsmith is als in the linbit ot
telling his inumnto friends just what ho
would do in case ho should discover a
burglar on his premises , and his wifohus
been known timidly to express tho.hope
that Henry would confine himself in such
a case 'to inflicting merely moderate
injuries upon tlio nould-bo marauder.
The otluu- night , suys the Chicago
Tribune , she wus aroused by sounds pro
ceeding from the lower part of the
house. The long expected burglai-s had
arrived ! Her husband was sleeping the
sleep of the suburbanite by her side , and
she shook him. whispering tragically in
his cur : "Henry , Henry , I hear some
one moving about down stairs ! "
"Um-hm. "
"Henry , Henry , wake up , we will bo
murdered in our b.-ds ! "
The response was a murmur in which
the only articulate words were , "tho

"No , It isn't the cut. O , why did I
ever leave my comfortable homo , where
tjjoro were burglar alarms at every
ndow , and eumo out here to bo mur
dered in my bed ? "
To .which Mr. Brownsmith , nettled
and wide awake , mndo reply in sarcastic
tones : "But , my dear , you are not mur
dered yet ; when you are it will bo time
to compluin. "
' 'Tills in no time for joking , Henry
Brownsmith , " retortol his wife , "and I
thought yon intended to steal down und
surprise any burglars who entered the
house , overwhelm them nnd march them
to the station house. "
But Henry displayed a singular
caution not in keeping with his words.

Those economical women who have
learned how easy It Is to sivo : money by
homc-dyolng , have often complained bo-
cnuso there woru not fastand non-fading
dyes for cotton goods.
Within the lust few years solonco hna
boon at work , nnd the results nro the
fust diamond dyes for cotton , turkey
rod , pink , purple , ortitigo , Ollvo green ,
brown , etc. These dyes muko colors so
tnst that oven washing in strong soap
suds will not start them. If a woman la
sure to got the fust diamond dyes for1
cotton , when she wants to dya cotton ,
who will bo nblo to dye absolutely fast ,
non-fading colors that will stay until
Iho goods nro worn out.
A practical dyer , writing In the Woix-
vors' Herald , snys , " 1 used to dye with
roots und buries , but after nil my work ,
( und It wag a tedious job. ) I was not sul-
faded , for the colors wore homely anil
often faded. At lust 1 commenced to
use diamond dyes , and the process la eo
simple nnd cusy thut the work is a
pleasure. I have used carpets mndo ot
rugs dyed with diamond dyes thrco
yours , und the colors nro still us bright
us when now. "
Many of the diamond dye fust cotton
colors uro so superior to other dyostuffu
thut they uro uted by dyers every
where , oven in the big mills nnd the
lurgo dye houses. Imitutors of those
reliable dyes have claimed that their
cotton dyea are "just us good , " butprau-
tleAl provo tlio diamond is the only kind
that mukes colors which soap will not
wush out or sunlight fnde.
The diamond Uyos come in nearly llfty
dllToroul colors , for silk , wool , and cot
ton , uud will dye anything , from n pair
of stockings to a dress or eloak.
