ARE TO BLAME | Semator McCumber Speaks - on Réciprocity. WAVE OF FREE TRADEISA Present’ Situation, He Declares, It Partly Due to- the Agricultura Veters Supporting Candidates Whe Favored Lower Duties and Defeat Ing the Men Who Passed the Pres ont Tariff Law. . ‘Washington, Feb. 27.—Responsibik ity for the conditiors with which they are mow confronte( was charged in ‘part to the farmer themselves by Senator McCumber of North Dakota in a speech in'the senate against thi McCall bill, which puts into form for enactment into law the provisions o1 the Canadian reciprocity agreement. Holding that the ratification of the .agreement would spell disaster for the | ‘agricultural interests, the senator said that thelr having loaned their ears ‘tc the arguments that’ were urged for ‘|'lower rates of duty at the time of the passage of the Payne-Aldrich bill, and their having given their votes in the ensuing election to the opponents ol these members of congress who had voted with the leaders in the twc houses, had been the undoing of the farmers. He declared that when a crusade against the whole tariff system’ was launched. in the press that ‘“natural conservatism - lost its balance and everything in' the tariff bill was con- demned.” y Wave of Free Tradeism. | “That we needeg money,” he con tinued, “to run the government was lost sight of and a wave of free trade ism that would have destroyed every vestige of protection and left the gov- ernment without revenue swept over the country.” Mr. McCumber referred to the sec tlonalism that developed in the tariff situation and the desire of one part of the country to have its own prod- ucts protected while those of another part should be made to compete with the free goods brought in from abroad. The president, said Mr. McCumber, should not bé censured for his advo- cacy of the reciprocity agreement. The farmers had shown by their votes last fall that they had not wanted to return the representatives who had defended their interests-in the -tariff legislation, and that meant that the farmers did not care whether they | were protected or not. | Reciprocity, said the speaker, was | not needed to increase this country’s as it is. | JAPANESE WELL PLEASED | | Prompt Ratification of Treaty by | American Senate the Cause. | Tokio, Feb. 27.—The ratification by | the United States senate of the new | treaty of trade and navigation with isfaction here by both Japanese and Americans. .

" COLOR BLINDNESS. The Incident That Opened John Dal- ton’s Eyes to His Affliction. John Dalton, the famous English chemist and natural philosopher, with- out whose discovery of the laws of chemical combination chemistry as an exact science could hardly exist, was ‘wholly. color blind. His knowledge of the fact came about by a happening of the sort which we call chance. On his mother’s birthday, when he was a man of twenty-six, he took her a pair of stockings which he had seen in a shop window, labeled “Silk, the newest fashien.” “Thee has bought me a pair of grand hose, John,” said the mother, “but what made thee fancy such a bright color? Why, I can never show myself at meeting in them.” John wag much disconcerted, but he told her that he considered the stock- ings to be of a very proper go to meeting color, as ‘they were a dark bluish drab. “Why, they're as red as a cherry, John,” was her astonished reply. Neither He nor his brother Jonathan could see anything but drab in the stockings, and they rested in the belief that the good wife’s eyes were out of order until she, having consulted vari- ous neighbors, returned with the ver- dict, “Varra fine stuff, but uncommon scarlety.” The consequence was that John Dal- ton became the first to direct the at- tention of the scientific world to the subject of color blindness, Here Is the Way They Made It In the Seventeenth Century. There are in existence in Great Britain a few copies of an ancient €ookbook, published in 1662, that gives what is perhaps the first English rec- ipe for coffee. The recipe reads: “To make the drink that is now much used, called coffee. “The coffee berries are to be bought | at any Druggist, abont seven shillings the pound, Take what quantity you please, and over a charcoal fire, in an old frying pan, keep them always s ring’ until they be quite black, and when you crack onme with your teeth | that it is black withinas it is without, yet if you exceed, then do you waste the Oyl, and if less, then will it not de- liver its Oyl, and if you should con- tinue fire till it be white it will then make no coffee, but only give you its salt.

The boy entered the Cleveland bank | unsl laid a half dollar with his bank book on the receiving teller's window. “We don’t recelve deposits of less thap a dollar,” sald the teller.

A mo- ment later he confronted the receiving teller. “I want to deposit this dollar and a half,” he said. The tel)er‘ grinned.
