The camel will work seven d iys without drinking, and a man occasionally drinks seveu days without working. If one is to re judged by habits, he might be led to believe that a man sprang from iroats.

President Luther, of Triuity College, iu his address to the American Institute of Instruct ors at Xew llawjn on Wednesday, uttered a serious arraignment of his country when he said that the best workmen iu the country to day are either old men or are im ported from Europe. Whether the actual conditions justify so extreme a statement it is notnec essary to inquire, but if the re strictions placed by the labor un ious upon apprenticeships do not yield such results the fault will not he with those bodies. Under the selfish and short sighted poli cy of the unions the Ameneau boy is at present practically de nied the right to learn a trade, and if it be true that the staud ard of American workmanship is steadily aud surely deteriorating, as alleged, the cause can be trac ed directly to the authors of that policy in the trades unions of the country. The remedy for this lamentable condition of affairs will be found in the acquisition of common sense by those who direct the af fairs of the unions. The prospect of any immediate consummation of this sort is unfortunately re mote, so the next best thing will be for the State to undertake that which could and should be done in the shops, milis and factories. Theestablishmentof trade schoos, in which the boy could learn to use his hands free from the jeal ous interference of incompetent journeymen oi. the one hand, and from the greedy exactions of an unprincipled employer on the other, might go a long way to ward the solution of the problem and the restoration of a high standard of American workman ship. It may be, as President Luther maintains, that a bright boy could learn more in two years in such a school thau in four in the stiop under au apprentice system, but such schools would reach only a portion of the boys who ought to have the opportun ity to learn a trade, and the shops should not be closed to them. It is always well to have a box of salve in the house. Sunburn, cuts, bruises, piles and boils yield to DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. Should Keep a box on hand at all times to provide for emergencies. For years the Standard, but fol lowed by many imitators. Bo sure you get the genuine DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. Sold by Stout eagle & Bro. A Festival. There wib be a festival in Geo. W.
