The beautifully Illustrated Christmas souvenir Issued by the St. Louis Globe Democrat, Is a masterpiece of newspa per work, printed on fine, heavy paper. In the highest style of the typograph ical art. and Is fully In keeping with the general tone and excellence of this splendid paper. The description of the methods of making a great dally are interesting in the extreme, and are full of revelations to thuee who have never visited the home of a modern metro politan newspaper like the Globe-Democrat. Tt is a misfortune that the numerous shipwrecks on the Washington coast should be confused or confounded with the entrance to the Columbia river. It may be true that these vessels were en deavoring to make the Columbia river, but they were all far out of their eouse, or otherwise they could net have gone ashore on the Washington coast. That the Columbia river Is one of the easiest of the world's great harbors to enter, when the mariner knows or takes the pains to ascertain his where abouts, is illustrated by the entrance In an unusually rough sea of the O. R. and X. Co.' large steamer Stat- of California, at t '.pck yesterday morn ing. There have iwn no wrecks on the Oregon Ccast in Vtt? vicinity of the Columbia river for years, and the safety and ease with which the largest ships sail Into the river' and clear to their anchorage grounds In front of Astoria, without the aid of a tug, and some times even without a pilot, is a constant subject of wonder and remark by the sea captains who frequent this port. If the Chamber of Commerce waa up to Its business it would send a vigorous protest to the postmaster general on the subject of the Irregular mail service now afforded Astoria. There is reason to believe that If the department were advised of the way we are being treat ed, steps would be taken to set the mat ter right Immediately. Astoria is too large and Important a part of Uncle Sam's domain to be cut off the way we now are from all communication with the balance of the country from early Saturday afternoon until an uncer tain hour In the late af ternoon or even ing of Monday. We are quite sure that when the contract for the mall was let to the present carrier It was not con templated that it should b subordi nated to the Interests of other business agreements which the contractor might see fit to enter into later. This thing of occupying an entire day and some times fully twenty-four hours to trans port the mails a distance of one hun dred rn'lo Is net !o bo tolrat?"! In an era of rapid transit. If the contract under which we are now receiving our mail is for a six days service only, then our business men should Insist upon the letting of a separate contract with some of the steamboat companies whose boat do not tie up on Sundays; and when the oid contract expires, If It Is one that has admitted of the gross Irregularities complained of, it should be seen to that the renewal contains a provision requiring as prompt and quick service as could now be furnished by other transportation companies op erating on the river. LUMBERMEN DEMAND PROTEC TION. There will be more or less diversity of opinion with respect to the adjust ment of the wool and cotton schedules In the new tariff law, but there tan be little disagreement among legislators who take the trouble to Inform them selves on the question as to the desira bility of restoring rough lumber to the dutiable list. It Is not generally known that the umber business constitutes the great est manufacturing industry in this country, but such is the fact No other industry can be compared to It In point of magnitude or amount of capital in vested. The Chicago Times-Herald says the Wilson-Gorman bl'.l of 1894, which put roug-h lumber on the fre list, struck a blow at the lumber Industry from which It will not soon recover. The act had no possible Justification in theory or tn actual trade conditions. A good p.wtlon of the lumber trade was of the opinion that the reduction of the duty no ordinary building lumber In the tariff act of ISM waa a mistake, and when this waa followed in 1S94 by the total abolition of the Import duty the lumber Interest were warranted In concluding that the government waa determined to do all in Ita power to destroy thla great Industry. . The lumber men will make a strong plea before the ways and means com mittee of the Fifty-fifth Congress for a restoration of protective duties. They will ptveent statistics showing the marked decline In the lumber trade, mhlch forms the Industrial and finan cial backbone of the groat Northwest, cstued by the hxtvy Importations of, free Canadian lumber. The lumbermen rijihily claim that their ( practically i the only American industry of any Im portance that has been entirely depriv ed of protection. The lumber manufacturers would not have such a serious grievance If the higher grades of good lumber .vere left on the free list. f.r no .juiintlty that Is likely to be brought In could affect our markets, Hut the Canadians have an ei.ormous amount of timber that pro duces the low grades of lumber, and the l'ni:ed States Is practically the only market for this class of lumber, nearly all the good Canadian lumber being used in Canada and England. The lum bermen of Canada get their cheap tim ber from lands owned by the govern ment, and pay about l a thousand roy alty as they cut It. On the other hand. American lumbermen have to make a heavy Investment in timber lands, which they own. white pine averaging M a thousand feet. Our lumber industry, which employs thousands of men and has millions of dollars of capital Invested, cannot stand this sort of competition. There has been a steady decline In profits since 1$4 until It Is claimed the profits have practically disappeared. Putting lum ber on the free list haa simply served to build up the lumber business of Can ada without any compensating benefits to American consumers and has depriv ed our government of an Important source of revenue. GETTING READY. Yhen the snow Is on the mountain And the Ice Is en the p.xd. And the children with a merry shout.

Why Is one woman attractive anil another not? The niist admirable and attractive thing about an attractive woman Is her womanliness. Kveryin-dy admires a womanly iv iman. She must have health, of course, because without it she would lose the brightness of her eyes, the fullness of her cheeks, and her vivacity. Real health must mean that a woman Is really a woman. That she Is strong and perfect In a sexual way, as well as In every other. That she Is capable of performing perfectly the duties of maternity. Some are born with what Is called "constitutional weakness." Some who do not enjoy perfect health, need only take the prop er precautions and the proper remedy to ecome perfectly well and strong.
