Free Trade Folly.
The Democratic party believes in
taxing American industry to the
limit. It believes in penalizing pro­
ductive enterprise to the point of
confiscation. As President Harrison
Bald, it hates the sight of an Ameri­
can smoke stack. But it believes, on
the other hand, that the foreign pro­
ducer is a benefactor, who can be
depended upon to phllanthropically
give the American consumer the best
of it even after he has mastered the
American market through tbe des­
truction of domestic competition. It
sees no necessity of a foreigner in­
vesting money in an American in­
dustry, because he will keep his
money at home and hire his work
done by a peasant in rags, a peon in
’ a coffee sack os a coolie in a breech­
clout. The democratic party will
throw the doors of customs houses
open and invite him to walk right in

in 1894 and 1914, three millions of
American wage earners are made
jobless.

FIRST OF SEEDLESS ORANGES
HOW SARDINES ARE PACKED
I
flLiEX. JVI g HAIR & GO
In 1872 United States consul to
Bahia (Brazil), W. F. Judson, was told
by the natives that 60 miles inland, up
the Amazon, were native orange trees
bearing fruit without seeds. Accord­
ingly he sent natives after tree shoots
and some of the fruit
The shoots were packed in moss
and day and sent to Washington.
They were set out by the agricultural
department, but attracted little atten­
tion until tht next year, when Horatio
Tibbetts of Riverside, Cal, took the
surviving four shoots to his home and
planted them. One died and another
was eaten up by a cow. At the end of
five years the two surviving trees bore
18 handsome seedless oranges. Next
year the oranges were even better, and
the trees bore about a box of ths fruit
From that time on the cultivation of
the seedless oranges about Riverside
progressed rapidly. As there were no
needs to raise the trees from it was
found necessary to graft buds of the
seedless trees into seedling trees.
Riverside has grown from a small
village to a town of 10,000 acme de­
voted to the cultivation of navel ’ or­
anges. It Is the greatest orange pro­
ducing locality In the world. The two
original trees were fenced about and
carefully guarded leet barm should
come to them, and they are now en­
joying a green old age.
PROCURE OIL
FROM
BIRDS
Inhabitants of the Island of 8t Kllda
Are Especially Favored In Re­
spect of Light.
The price of coal oil Is a matter of
no interest to the inhabitants of the
island of St. Kllda, a favorite haunt
of that animated oil can, the fulmar,
observes the Cincinnati Commercial
Tribune. So rich In oil Is this sea
bird that the natives simply pass a
wick through its body and use It as a
lamp.
The oil Is also one of the principal
articles exported from the Island.
It Is found in the birds' stomachs, Is
amber colored and has a peculiarly
nauseous odor. The old birds are said
to feed the young with it, and when
they are caught or attacked they light­
en themselves by disgorging it.
In St Kllda It Is legal to kill the ful­
mars only during one week In the
year ; but during that week from 18,000
to 20,000 birds are destroyed.
The mutton bird of the Antarctic
also carries its oil in the stomach and
can eject this oil through the nostrils
as a means of defense against ene­
mies.
Quantities of mutton birds are
slaughtered every year for their oil on
the coasts of Tasmania and New Zea­
land. In Its composition and proper­
ties this oil closely resembles sperm
oil.
Made First Cash Register,
A man named Jacob Rltty, a mer-
chant of Dayton, O., took a vacation
trip to Europe. While crossing on the
steamer, he sauntered one day into the
engine room and noticed a device that
mechanically recorded the number of
revolutions of the propeller shaft. Im­
mediately came the idea to the mind
of Mr. Rltty: "Why not Invent a ma­
chine that would re<?ord each cotn put
Into the cash drawer Y’ When he re­
turned home he Invented the first
"cash register.” John H. Patterson
was keeping a grocery store In a small
town 80 miles from Dayton. He heard
of the Rltty contrivance, sent an or­
der for one, and that was the
Inventor’s first order. The machine
was crude, but It Interested Mr. Pat­
terson and he saw how It could be per­
fected. "If it’s good for my store,” be
argued, “why not for all storesT’
Forthwith he went to Dayton, bought
the Rltty Interest out, and started the
National Cash Register Co., which has
now 1,800,000 machines and every
year turns out more than 60,000 cash
registers.
Primitive Station.
There is in England a railway sta­
tion which has only one train each
way a week—at Blackwell Mill, si tu­
ated mid way between Miller's Dais
and Buxton. Blackwell Mill consists
of eight workmen’a cottages on the
banks of the Wye. They are occupied
by railway workmen, and it Is for the
convenience of the wives who wish to
journey to Buxton for marketing that
on Friday mornings the 9:10 train
ffom Miller’s Dale stops at Blackwell
Mill. The two uncovered platforms of
the “station” are of the length of a
railway coach, and composed of rough
stone nt^| gravel. The “walt'ng room”
is a plotelayer’s hut, where the trav­
elers are glad to shelter from the keen
wind on winter mornings. The train
carries the stationmaster, who distrib­
utes the privilege tickets.
Loops the Loop In a 8torm at Sea.
Looping the loop in a kite balloon
was the hair-raising feat performed
some time since by a young balloon­
ist when the government was testing
the use of captive balloons on battle­
ships doing convoy work, according to
a story in Popular Mechanics Maga­
zine. The balloonist In question had
been aloft In his basket several hours
despite very rough weather when a 40-
mile gale struck the fleet. Instantly
the gas bag made a spinning nose
dive, swinging the basket and occu
pant through a complete circle. No
sooner was one loop completed than
another and another followed—fifteen
in all.
The process of preparing sardines la
very simple but requires experience
and great care. Upon the arrival of
the sardines at the factory they are
immediately placed on large wooden
tables about forty feet long, where
they are cleaned. This process takes
only a second, and a fairly efficient
worker can clean from 800 to 400
pounds of fish per day. according to
a writer In Fishing Gazette.
The fish are then placed In rata of
brine, where they are allowed to re­
main from one-half to two hours, ac­
cording to else. They are then placed
in wire trays equipped with prongs in
upright position, where they are al­
lowed to dry for about an hour before
they are ready for cooking. This la
done by placing the trays in large steam
ovens, where the fish are subjected to
a pressure of about two pounds of
steam, twenty minutes being consumed
in properly cooking the small flah and
as much as thirty-five minutes in cook­
ing the larger slses.
This cooking has to be carefully
watched; If the sardines are subjected
to too much steam they become some­
what brittle and break when being
packed. Some sardines are cooked In
oil; however, an extra charge Is made
for this process, and comparatively
few are sold.
After the sardines have been prop­
erly steamed the trays are placed on
long counters for sorting, which la
done by carefully selected and well-
paid girls. After sorting, the tins are
filled with oil and placed on shelves,
where they are allowed to remain for
about twelve hours In order to Insure
the proper Impregnation of the oil.
Pure olive oil Is used In preparing
most sardines, especially the best
grades, but for some markets a mix-
ture of olive oil and high-grade pea-
nut oil is desired.
CIVILIZATIONS OF THE PAST
Nations With High Degree of Cultiva­
tion That Are Now Only Memory
In History's Pages.
Thousands of years ago—long before
the great western nations of today,
long before even Greek and Roman
were heard of—there were more or
less advanced civilizations on both
sides of the Pacific. China, for exam­
ple, had grown into a stable Mongol­
ian kingdom perhaps 4,000 years be­
fore the beginning of our era. A
Chinese author writes: "There Is no
existing nation la the world that has
a larger past than China. She has
seen the rise and fall of the ancient
Egyptian dynasties; the extension of
the Persian empire; the conquests of
Alexander; the irresistible advance of
the Roman legions; the deluge of the
Teutonic hordes from the north, and
the birth of all the nations of modern
Europe.”
The Japanese also, a people com­
pounded of various elements, but
chiefly Mongolian and Malayan, stood
stood at the beginning of our era on
a high plane of civilization, and even
then exhibited the tendencies and the
adaptiveness which distinguish them
today.
Then away to the east In Central
and South America, civilizations
waxed and waned, reaching their high­
est development In the Aztec and In­
can empires, the latter of which was
an extremely Interesting example of
despotic socialism.
Rupert Brooke In Fiji.
Fiji In moonlight Is like nothing
else in thia world. . . . It’s all dim
colors and all scents. And here, where
it’s high up, the most fantastically
shaped mountaina in the world tower
up all round, and little silver clouds
and wisps of mist run bleating up and
down the valleys and hillsides like
latntyi looking for their mother.
There’s only one thing on earth as
beautiful; and that’s Samoa by moon­
light. That’a utterly different, merely
heaven, sheer loveliness. You He on
a mat in a cool Samoan hut, and look
out on the white sand under the high
palms, and a gentle sea, and the black
line of the reef a mile out, and moon-
Ught over everything, floods and floods
of it, not sticky, like Honolulu moon­
light, not to be eaten with a spoon, but
flat and abundant, such that you could
slice thin golden-white shavings off
It, as off cheese. . . .—From "Collected
Poems of Rupert Brooke: With a
Memoir."
Marriage.
Marriage Is the nursery of heaven.
The virgin sends prayers to God, but
she carries but one soul to him; but
the state of marriage fills up the num­
bar of the elect and hath in It the In-
bor of love and the delicacies of friend­
ship, the blessing of society and the
union of hands and hearts. It hath In
it less of beauty, but more of safety
than the single life; It hath more ease,
but less danger; It is more merry and
more sad; is fuller of sorrows and
fuller of joys; it lies under more bur-
dens, but is supported by all the
strengths of love and charity, and
those burdens are delightful.—Jeremy
Taylor.
