MAY 6, 1897.

NOTES AND COMMENTS:

— Mr. Douglas, the half-independent repre sentativeof Eastern Assinniboiacom plained during the budget debate that the minis- ters had net kept their pledges to reduce the dnty on agricultural implements. If Mr. Douglas looks around among Mr. Lauricer’s followers, he will notice among them a Mr. Frost, the representative of a constituency in which the manufacture of agricultural implements is almost as important an industry as coal oil produc- tion is in Mr. Lister’s constituency or coal mining in Mr. Fielding’s province. The Pieléing tariff is not based on any principle or the carrying out of any pledges. It is, as the Montreal Gazette truly remarks, a combination of favoritism and spite. Mr. Frost’s constituency got some of the favoriti-m.

—Tie United States bockmen have a grievance, much of the same nature as that alleged by their Canadian fellows. The Chap Book calls the Dingley bill, so far as it effects books, a measure of crim- i~al folly. Under it, says the Chap Book, “pooks, pamphlets, engravings, pLoto- graphs, etchings, maps, music, charts, are to be taxed 25 per cent. ad valorem. Colleges and laboratories will have to pay a duty of 45 per cent. ad valorem on in- struments, while a tax of 25 percent. ad valorem is placed on paintings and statuary. It took years of patient agitation to get the old imposts on education and scientific research abolished. They are now to be reimposed once more, and the claim of the United States to be con- sidered an enlightened country must suffer accordingly.” The sentiments of Canadian book lovers toward the Fielding tariff are fairly described by this denunciation of the U.S. tariff bill.

HORSE FAMINE CLOSE AT HAND.

The Farmers’ Advocate declares that the short crop of colts for the last few 6 will begin to tell on us soon. ‘The Teatedes Stock Farm has found by cor- respouding with the different assessors throughout the horse-raising sections of the country that in some localities there are only 5 per cent. of the regular crop yaised, and in no places more than i0 per cent. bus been foaled for the last three year-. The uisible supply of American horsew in 1894 was 16,000,000; in 1896, 16,000,000; and it is predicted by good authority that before the close of the year 1897 the visible supply will be nearly the 14,000,000 mark, and judging from every indication there is a great horse famine close at hand, for with returning pros- perity, which is sure to come, and with it a great increase in demand, and as the law of supply and demand governs all prices, an increasing demand with a short supply means that before horses can be bred and produced for the market they will be ex- tremely high.

ESTEEMED EXCHANGES,

Mail and Empire: Sir William Vernon Harcourt appears to be getting reckless. Leaders on his side of the House are not usnally wanting in a sense of the respon— sibility of the Opposition. In the Cretan trouble, however, and now in the Trans- vaal coutroversy, he has pursued a mis- chievous and dangerous course — one caleulated to increase Britain’s foreign difficulties. By accusing the Government of deliberately inviting war with the Transvaal he has strengthened the Boers in their obstinacy and Germany in her sympa‘hy. He has made the situation far more s¢rious than it was.

Montreal Journal of Commerce : Another change was aleo made to catch the farm- er’a votes. According to some of their friends the farmers have been ‘crushed’ ‘impoverished,’ ‘ground dowr,’—we are quoting from speeches on this eubject,—by the duty on coal oil. A farmer’s consump- tion of oilis about 15 or 20 gallons a year, on which theduty has been raised from 90 cents to $1.20, no doubt a very terrible oppression! To relieve these groaning sufferers, the duty has been reduced one cent per gallon, so that the farmer’s oil will cost the retailar so much less. The farmers wil] not benefit one cent a year by the reduction in coa! oil duty. Even if they get all the benefit it would be only 15 or 20 cents a year. It is ludicrous te have such a trompery affair discussed in par- liament.”

COMPENSATION.

—- --

You say I’ve suffered. It is true, my friend, ;

And still shall suffer,—that I know right well,

My way is hard and toilsome.’ Who can

tell

By what steep paths I reach my journey’s end?

But this you have forgot,—I do not spend

My effort grudging. If through some o!d spel]

Of god or genii, I could yet compel

My lot to my desires, I +till would bend

My steps as fate has,—make no other choice

Than just this life that seems so bare to you,

Refuse no height which gives a larger view

Of seeming inequalities. My voice I lift in praise, not question. O, pursue Me not with pity, but, with me, rejoice.

— Katherine L. Ferris, in Harper’s Mag- azine for May.

TOWN TOPICS.

Even when New York is Greater, Chi- cago will feel Bigger.—Boston Globe.

A large city changes rapidly in these times. Boston’s new railway terminal will require the clearing away of more than 200 buildings.—Boston Herald.

The Greater New York will be the lar- gest city in the world, after London. And it will contain more politics to the square inch than London has to the square mile. — Buffalo Express.

A Chicago paper suggests a name for Greater New York—East Chicago. Chi- cago would be a pretty good town if it were not for its inhabitants and location. — Minneapolis Journal.

The Greater New York will afford an experiment in municipal government that will be watched with great interest by ev- ery municipality in America and Europe. —Chicago Times-Herald.

THE DOLLS OF PARIS.

THEY USED TO BE MANIKINS, NOW THEY ARE THE REAL THING,

Employed to Show Off the Costumes of Women—A Piece of Gallantry In War Times—Some Modern Dolls Never Re-

turn to Their Parisian Masters,

M. Guy Tomel in Le Journal des De- hats gives an interesting account of dumb tolls, talking dolls and dolls that get mar- ried. Three nations, he says, have the lu- erative honor of furnishing the dolls for little girls all over the world. England produces the wax doll, Germany the saw- dust stuffed leather doll, with a head of

“porcelain, and France has the jointed baby, invented in 1862. Before this compara- tively recent period France did not con- tribute much to the international doll market. Her dolls were nevertheless cele- brated throughout the entire world, but they were fashionable dolls, or dolls for grown up ladies. Sometimes perhaps in our travels through Paris we may have notieed tiny glass showcases which serve as the signs of dressmakers. In these lit- tle cases there are manikins dressed with the greatest possible care in the feminine fashion of the day. ‘They are specimens of the costumes offered by the dressmakers to their customers. The elegance and detail of. these lilliputian toilets, in which there is nota single point wanting, have often been admired. There the little la¢y stands in her rather stiff but proud attitude, the sphinx of fashion.

Salute these little princesses whose num- ber is decreasing every day. During cen- turies they were the missionaries of the French fashions, even in the most remote regions, and, thanks to them, ladies in far distant corntries were never afraid to sup- ply themsclves with articles which the lit- tle manikins taught them to wear with chic.

With every export of ladies’ apparel the merchants sent one of those little mani- kins, and the precaution was never an un- wise one. An example of its utility was furnished in Calcutta. The first cloaks that were sert there, of a yery light tex- ture, considering the climate, wcre worn ‘upon the head, like mantillas, by the Cal- cutta ladies. to whom, by mistake, the ex- porter had neglected to send the little model. At the end of the year it arrived, and the errcr was corrected.

One hundred years ago voyages were so long, so perilous and costly that they re- quired a sort of boldness reserved for men alone. One could count on the fingers the bumbcr of women wlio came to Paris in the eighteenth century from any country outside of Kurope. And nevertheless about that period Paris busied the feminine head with its renown as the capital of fashion. But there is better still. The French model doll, awaited with impatience by the ladics to whom it was sent, enjdyed privileges of immunity that were rot always possessed even by our embassadors. For the doll they created a sort of special law or privi- lege. Ina publication of the eighteenth century the f.llowing suggestive lines ap- pear:

‘*Kvery body knows that during the most bloody war between France and England, at the time of Addison, a piece of gallantry not unworthy of history existed between the ministers of the courts of Versailles and St. James. In compliment to the la- dies they allowed the ‘big doll’ to go free. It was a figure completely dressed accord- ing to the most recent fashion, to serve as a model for the English ladies. In this way, in the midst of the furious hostilities, this manikin was the only thing that was reszccted by the soldiers.’’

Certainly the days of glory are passed fer the doll of fashion, not only because the railroads and universal expositions bring frequently enough foreign ladies capable of detailing in their own countries the secrets of our high toned dressmakers, but because the vulgarization of the fash- ion plates of the day that are exploited by the newspapers leave nothing to be guessed at by the coquettes of the two hemispheres.

‘‘Nevertheless,’’ continues M. Guy Tomel, ‘‘I wanted to know if the mission- ary doll was entirely dead after such a brilliant career, and if some South Ameri- can republic or some archipelago of the antipodes did not exist where she continued to give her lessons in fashion. I expressec this idea toa specialist of the Rue de la Paix.

‘**Do you send a manikin sometimes in your exports?’ I asked.

***Certainly,’ he replied. ‘The thing is absolutely necessary. No water color can go into complete details. But the bother is that they do not always speak the lan- guage of the country.’

‘*All right, I thought; they are sending phonographic dolls. That is progress.

‘**For example,’ continued my inter- locutor, ‘I want one now that can talk Portuguese, and I haven't got one, and another bother is that very often they won’t come back when I send them away. They remain ‘n the country and marry in- to rich families.’

‘* “Yes,’ I suid, ‘with punchinellos.’

‘**Oh, no, not punchinellos, but very respectable prople, I can assure you. I lost two good ones recently in this way in Brazil.’

‘*Suddenly the cloud dissipated. I un- derstood, and it wastime. The fashion- able dolls that are now sent along to ac- company the exportations are employees of the establishment who have given am- ple proof of their gifts, their abilities and their elegance. Itis a much sought for mission among the pretty, well formed

and skillful girls.’’ a — => ee eee

MAPLE SUGAR LORE.

Wermont Not the Chief Producer—One Kind of Sugar to Be Avoided.

‘‘Vermont, for some reason,’’ said a commission dealer, ‘‘is generally sup- posed to be the one great source of the country’s map’e sugar supply, and yet Vermont makes less than one-fifteenth of the whole. Vermont's reputation for producing the finest quality of sugar is deserved, for the sugar makers of that state were the first to recognize the im- portance of the commodity as a factor in domestic as well as foreign commerce and to bring to its manufacture not on- ly scientific helps, but the potent aid of observation and study of the maple tree and the effects upon it of climate, soil and meteorological conditions. Vermont maple sugar has national fame, as has Goshen butter, although there is not a pound of butter made in or around Goshen that enters the market now, nor has there been for years.

‘‘New York city dealers’ sold 12,000,000 pounds of maple sugar last year. Three-quarters cf that amount was sold as Vermont sugar, at least 4,000,000 pounds more than that state produces. Today Delaware and Catta- raugus counties in this state, some of the northern tier counties of Pennsyl- vania, particularly Susquehanna and Wayne, and more particularly a central county of Pennsylvania—Somerset—be- sides the counties of the Western Reserve of Ohio, are making maple sugar equal to the very best that ever came from Vermont, just as our own Delaware and Chemung counties and certain counties as far away as Illinois are making the butter that people set in their ways are today buying under the old name and fame of Goshen butter. So, while maple sugar bought as Vermont sugar in this city may not be the Green Mountain State product, buyers may rest easy. The chances are that they have got sug- ar made in New Yerk, Pennsyivania or Ohic, but it is just as good.

‘“Phe true maple sugar season begins about March 1 and lasts until the mid- dle of April, yet one sees every year, early in February, in the high priced fancy groceries of this city tempting looking bars and cakes of maple sugar labeled ‘Vermont — First Run.’ The grocers buy that article for just what they represent it to be to their custom- ers, but instead of being the first run of the Vermont sugar camps it is the . last run of the year before, and something else. At the close of every maple sugar season certain Vermont dealers, and dealers in other sugar making localities, too, buy up from the farmers all the poor or refuse sirup and sugar they have on hand. These dealers send out agents through the country to hunt up this inferior tail end stock. It is bought cheap and is kept cver until the next winter. As carly as January the dealers begin to prepare it fer the market. The sirup aud stgar are boiled together with large additions of cheap brown sugar and glucose. The result of this revamping cf the last year’s inferior gcods ixto gccds still more inferior is shipped to New York and other cities as the very first of the new crop of Ver- mont maple sugar before a tree has been tapped for the season’s run of sap. And although it has none of the flavor of genuine maple sugar the city folks buy it st fancy prices and gloat over it.

‘It is the popular belief that pure maple sugar is invariably known by its dark, dam:p looking appearance. In the old days of maple sugar making the product was necessarily very dark, be- cause the simple processes then in use could not make it light. But it was full of impurities all the same—no adultera- tions, but natural impurities. Nowa- days it is not the dark maple sugar that should be regarded as the pure article, for it is more apt to be the most impure. The very best maple sugar that comes from Vermont or elsewhere is of a light, clear, dry, glossy brown—so very light, indeed, that it looks like clarified beeswax.’’—New York Sun.
