To be sure there is nothing new in the fact that imported goods find a certain degree of favor in certain circles; but to find that this preju- dice against home manufacture is so strong is almost disgusting, says the Duluth Herald. You would naturally think that under conditions such as have been imposed by the war, the use of home products would be almost instinctive. ‘What could have been the origin of this foolish prejudice in favor of goods ‘“not made in America?”’ A Pittsburg man speaks of ‘“the pop- ular, though erronous, impression that European manufactures are su- perior.” Is it not more probable that the false pride of paying more for an article than a neighbor pays had something to do with it? .Gro- cers éay that though labels and goods may be identical, given articles will sell quicker at twenty-four cents than at twenty-one cents. And-in the days of high tariff, it seemed to some like a mark of distinction to be able to buy imported goods just be- cause they cost more than others. Then there is the old idea of valu- ing something.from abroad. A piec- ture post card with a European post- mark impresses apybody more than But in these later days of fast, trans- portation there is little excuse for One is driven to the conclusion that it is just plain folly, after all, the dictates the prejudice there manu- facturers feared to offend. But it is enforcement of the laws now. on our’ statute books. = If any of the laws are bad, public sentiment will not toler- ate their enforcement and will de- mand their repeal. If the laws are good, publi¢ sentiment will support their enforcement.

New York, Jan. 8.—It really mat- ters not these days whether a drama is played in two or three acts and two scenes; the real vital secret of its source is if it played in two even- ing gowns, a street costume and a negligee. The glass of fashion is the opera glass and followers of fash- ion get their latest hints from be- hind the footlights. Among the most striking creations shown on the New York stage this winter that have furnished wonder- ful copy to poor war victims deprived of their Paris models one that has’ proved a swooping success and has been fairly pounded upon, is worn an expensive kind of folly, and per-| haps, if thg war lasts long enougl!,f even ‘“‘that kind” of .merica will | come to see how ridiculous the no- tion is.

Again the. state press is urging up- on the legislature the desirability of providing for the publication of the personal property tax list. The tax- dodgers in the legislature will again see to it that no such law is passed, aided and encouraged by the tax- dodgers on’ the outside. Publication of the personal property tax list would eventually make taxdodging odious and the taxdodger hates pub- licity.—Preston Times. —— Next week the Minnesota legisla- ture will convene for another ninety- be less than new born baby The soap that nurse uses-for itsbath indeed must be the m/dest in the world.
