"A sweeping victory for the miners!" exclaims one commentator upon the report of the President's commission on the Anthracite Coal Strike. "A boomb in labor circles!" declares an other with equal assurance. Both are wrong. The report gives victory to one of the parties to the controversy. But it is not the miners, nor is it the operators. It is rather the third party whose interests are paramount, though too often overlooked by both the others and their hot champions—the public. So far as the two parties first named are concerned, each has partly won and partly lost, as was to be ex pected. The public, whose demands were simply that justice to all should prevail, seems to have won on every point.—N. Y. Tribune. The Sweeping Skirt. From an article in American Medi cine entitled "Problems of Preventa tive Medicine" we c6py the following: "Women of the upper classes, who set the fashion for all other women, should also do much for the cause of preventative medicine by making cer tain changes in their manner of dress ing, particularly in regard to the length of the skirt worn out of doors. To see a well dressed and attractive woman trailing a long skirt over a muddy side walk and sweeping up the filthy droppings of animals and the still more filthy human expec. toration which always lies there, is certainly a disgusting Bight, and when that same woman goes home and shakes and brushes her skirt, the my riads of micro-organisms which she has collected daring the afternoon's shopping are freely scattered about the house to be later perhaps inhaled by herself, her husband and her children. It can hardly be doubted that the germs of disease are thus frequently introduced into the home, and this danger would be lessened if women would never wear long skirts while walking out of doors The educated and thoughtful women of our commu nities may in various ways be ofim mense service to the cause of preven tative medicine, but they must first be made to realize the importance of the subject and how by a little intelligent and concerted action on their part they can assist in bringing about the various sanitary reforms which have been discussed in this essay." Danger of Colds and Grip. The greatest danger for colds and grip is their resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable care bo used, however, and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for these diseases we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneu monia. which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventive of that dangerous disease. It will cure a cold oi an attack of the grip in less time than any other treatment. It is plcasaut and safe to take. For sale by L. Taggart. Makes a Glean bweep.

A Twenty Billion Dollar Country. When about a dozen years ago the ap propriationH by a single Congress for two years amounsed to a billion of dol lars there was much criticism by the minority of such lavishness, and the reply was that this was a billion dollar conntry.says the Pbiladelphialnquirer. Figures just brought to light show that this estimate was forty times too small, as the internal commerce of the country as wholesale prices amounts to twenty billions a year—a sum impos sible to grasp, but the enormity of which is undisputed. Last year the farmers furnished produce worth at farm prices five billions, the manufactures turned out fourteen billion dollars' worth of material and the miners another billion. This product amounted to $250 for every man, women or child in the country, or about SI,OOO per head for each wage earner. It must bo remembered that this is 1 the gross amount and does not repre sent profit, but the aggregate is large and astounding. It is true that there were many who did not come up to this average and many wh > got a great deal more, but it needs no figures to demonstrate to everyone that we are in the midst of a career of prosperity never before reached by any nation in the world and, fortunately, there is nothing to indicate that it is on the wane. The new Department of Com merce will look after this immense busi ness in a general way, and much good is predicted from its workings. So enormous is our trade and so wide spread our development that it would be posssibie to put a Chinese wall around the country and still peremit ue all to have practically every wish gratified. The foreign demand, however, is great and is becoming one of our chief factors of prosperity, since we are constantly producing a surplus Another item of cognate interest showing national development is fur nished by the appropriations for the Postoffloe Department which will spend next year $153,000,000. Postofflce re ceipts are always taken as an index of prosperity. It is business that uses the mails and the sum mentioned is more than twice the sum appropriated in 1891. The sum for next year is greater even than the pension roll, and it is ex pected that all but ten millions of this will be paid by the public for the ser vice and there would be actual surplus except for tha extension of the free rural mails. In the year before the Civil War the total expenses of the government for all purposes was not one half what the postofflce will use next year. These things are important and impressive. An Interesting Fact. A Canistco observer said to the editor the other day: "lt is amusing but it is true. Let a wide awake hus tling merchant, who knows that adver tising pays, put a list of low prices in the paper, and his competitors who do not believe in advertising will tumble over themselves to post a lot of old box covers in the widows of their stores on which are daubed signs offering goods at the same price. The merchant who says it don't pay to advertise is not oniy aback number, but his acts belie his statements every day he attempts to do business."—Times*Republican. School Report.

Dear Sir: You'd strike it rich if you could find a way to shave your cus tomers in less time, for less cost, and make the shave last twice or three times as long. You wouldn't shave the same person so many times, no get so much of his money; but the whole town would be talking about you, and everybody would come to you for a shave. Devoe lead and zinc is exactly that in paints. It takes fewer gallons, and it wears longer. Costs less for the job, and you don't have to do it again for years and years—six years at least. "Fewer gallons; wears longer." Takes fewer gallons to paint a house with Devoe and Zinc than with mixed paints; and it wears longer than mixed paints or lead and oil. Yours truly, F. W.

Trinidad, an island in the south At lantic opposite the mouth of the Ori noco, Is famous for Its pitch. There are districts where there is pitch ev erywhere. The beach Is pitch, and so are the "rocks," some of which have been carried off to supply Paris nnd New York with tar pavements. At La Brea pineapples grow to perfection in a brown soil which is half pitch. But the wonder of the Isle is the pitch lake a mile and a half In circumference. As It lies slitterliiK in the sun It looks like a vast bed of monstrous mush rooms. all black and of all kinds of shape and size, some measuring as much us tlfty feet across. The space between these unlovely objects Is lilleil with oily water.
