Will those Democrats who gagged at 16 to 1 four yoara ago now be able to swallow the doso because it is sandwiched botwoeu imperialism and free trade? Years ago childhood troubles were confined mainly to tho rule of three, fractions, nnd the names of towns in Michigan ; recently we had to mas ter Spanish, then names in South Africa and now comes the Chinese difficulty. Who would not like to be a child again? The Lansford Record says Mr. Barber has littlo respect for the in telligence ot Democrats when he circulates the story that Carbon county will not secure the Congres sional nomination unless he gets it. The Congressman sizes up the Intelligence of his constituents very fairly for he has been "it." Even the dormant conscience of modern Democracy forbids the par ty leaders to appeal to the shades of Jackson and Jefferson for endorse ment of their present vagaries. No national ticket ever nominated gave more general satisfaction to its party and more trouble to its oppon ents than the one named by the Philadelphia convention. In the interest of our expanding commerce we recommend that Con gress create a Department of Com merce and Industries, in the charge of a Secretary with a sent in the Cabient. Republican platform. Wheat is getting near the dollar mark again. Silver stands still, and even corn is worth nearly as much now as an ounce of silver. The increase in the foreigh trade of the United States during the fiscal year just closed, as compared with the previous year, will proliably ag gregate over three hundred millions of dollars so far the greatest in our history and yet the proportion of our trade carried in American vessels was the lowest of any previous year. . Under the operation of the Wilson free trade tariff for revenue only, there wus a deficit of 108,000,000 in thirty-five months. Under the Ding ley turilT for protection there, was a surplus of 10,000,000 in thirty-two months. For Ladies', Misses' and Child ren' fiue tiboes and ties go to T. Armstrong & Co. OUR CHURCH COLUMN.

Tho Ltdies Aid society of our church hns fixed upon Angus 16 as the date for their annual fair. The topic for our E;worth Loaguo service next Sunday evo ing is "How mission work will gain suc cess."

The death of Admiral Philip at the Brooklyn Navy Yard Juno 30 was a great shock to thousands of poople throughout the land, who. whether personally acquainted will, him or not, held him in high esteem. Ho entered the Naval Academy in 1856, and hii first assignment after his graduation was to tho Constitu tion as a midshipman. He was in active service throughout the civil war, and later passed through the various grades of the service, nnd upon the breaking ot of the war with Spain ho had reached the gratlb of captain and was in charge of the Texas. His part in tho battle of Santiago in which Cervera's squad ron was utterly destroyed is well known, and it will ever be to his honor that when Cervera's ships and seen were lining destroyed and our men were jubilant, he said to his men, "Don't cheer, boys ; the poor fellows are dying." His mem ory will be kept fragrant, also, be cause after the battle on July 3, J 89H he orderered all hands on dock ami, lifting his hat, said reverently j "1 want to make public acknowledg ment here that I belie vo in God the Father Almighty. I want nil you officers nnd men to lift your hats, and from your hearts offer silent thanks to tho Almighty." - He was buried at Annapolis on the second anniversary of the famous battle of Santiago.

If life has not gone well with us, if fortune nas left us disconsolate, if love has grown cold and We sit by the embers, if life has become to us a valley of desolation through which weary limbs must drng an unwilling body till the end shall come, let us not radiate such an at mosphere to those around us ; let us not take strangers through the cata combs of our life and show the bones of our dead past ; let us not pass our cup of sorrow to others, but if we must drink it, let us take it as Socrates did his poison hemlock grandly, heroically and uncoiu plainingly.

Bad teeth are common nmong Amer icans, due, the physiologists say, to our hnblt of pntliig brentl ninde of bolted flour. Among American firemen are as ninny with, soft teeth as In any other occupation, but as they are more exposed to the causes of neurnlgin, their teeth should receive careful at tention. Fire Chief Ueortre Hale, of Kansas City, Is a man who thinks. He Is the Inventor of the Btvliifrlntf harness used by fire companies all over the world, and of the water tower. He took a fire company to the Mi? London tournament a few years apn anil astonished the greatest fire chiefs In the world by taking prizes right am) left, nnd healing all previous rec ords In hitching,' running, coupling and wall scaling. Chief Hale Insists that the men In his department keep their teeth in good condition ns nn old to health. For years he suffered greatly from neurnlgin hi his teeth every time he went to a fire nnd got wet. His teeth were apparently sound, but very soft. After trying In many ways to prevent It, and receiving much fruitless ad vice from dentists, he conceived the Idea of having his teeth gold plated. He ennte to New York nnd secured the services of a competent dentist. A mold was made of each tooth sep arately and a small cap made. The cap was of fine gold sixty-eight oue bundredths of au Inch thick. This cap was hammered on the tooth well up under the gum and fitted It exact ly. The base of the cap was thicker on the biting, or grinding, surface than on the back or front. Thus was every tooth In his Jaw treated, nnd he hns never suffered from neuralgia since. Chief Hale's teeth glisten and flash when he talks or laughs, nnd the effect Is not jjxnetly ornamental, but the gold plating serves Its pur pose. Tommy's Lunch. t'nele (who left his nephew "refresh ing" himself): "We'll, Tommy, you see I'm back; are you ready? What have 1 to pay, mlftsV" Waitress: "Three buns, four sponge cakes, two sandwiches, one jelly, five tarts, and " l ucle: " (iood gracious, boy!Are you not 111V" Tom my: "No, uncle; but I'm very thirsty." Tit-Ults. In Ohio the birds have found an un expected friend. Fishermen on the Lake Krle shore say that If It were not for the gulls eating the dead fish that float ou the lake and are washed ashore every day, the water would soon become so contaminated that fish could not live In It. For this reason an effort is being made to pass a law forbidding the slaughter of sea gulls on Lake Krle shore. American Product!. Consil James Boyle, writing from Liverpool under the date of February 15, says there have recently been a number of communications and ar ticles in the Liverpool papers draw ing attention to the fact that Ameri can manufactures, particularly in specialties, had been accepted by Eng lish purchasers In preference to those of home production, the reason given being that the American goods were better made and handier than the home goods and were fully as cheap. Of late, there has been a tendency on the part of English critics to claim that American manufactures were preferred simply because they were cheap, and It was often added they were "nasty" as well as cheap. The statements referred to at the com mencement of this report refute this criticism, and American manufactur ers can now find plenty of champions In England who base their support on the ground of actual superiority, both ot workmanship and adaptabil ity.
