For the more intelligont a man is the more varied his wants, the more goods he needs or wants. The average income of an American family—and that meas- ures the average capacity for buying goods—varies from about $1,800 a year in Massachusetts to less than $300 in some Southern States. In the total the average is about $750 a year. Now, the higher this average income gets, provided it repre- sents diffused wealth, the larger will be our capacity to consume manufactures. Anything which tends to raise this average tends to develop the home market, tends to enable the people to enjoy more and more of the comforts and luxuries which their toil and skill produce. On the contrary, anything which tends to lower this average, anything which tends to } the concentration instead of to the diffusion of | wealth, tends to destroy the home market and to make the masses producers of comfort and luxury for others. The chief wass for developing the home market are— Edueation, which increases man’s desires and also his capacity to carn the means of satisfying his desires. Higher wages—the logical result of better capacity to labor. Against these forces is any force which tends to make the laborer a helpless dependent and to enable a few men to control prices. And therefore these combinations which are selling to foreign- ers more cheaply than they sell at home need attention. STARVING THE SCHOOLS— NEW YORK AND ENGLAND.

New York has spont millions for useless salary increases and for the wages of “unemployed employees;” millions for a free race- track for rich politicians who own fast horses; millions for the “rnke-off.” But it can’t afford schools for the city’s children; and of the pittance that is appropriated more than half is wasted or delayed in costly condemnation proceedings to provide more useless salaries, more fees, more “rake-off.” In the words of the immortal Tweed, “What are you going to do about it?” FOUR DAINTY FRUIT DESSERTS. - Mash one cup-jly sugared oranges and a sprinkling of eoecccsosooO ty) of hulled|cocoanut.

KO AL Are Women Me Ment Q To the Bittor of The Bvening Wérld: IT have often questioned young men and women as to their literary tastes. | From the women I have received pretty encouraging answers. They preferred a Ilterary enclety to anything else, even to a tem party. From the men my hopes have been somewhat crushed. Instead of giving me the slightest hope they openly denounsed Mterary socletion and said they preferred a gymnarium to the best Ilterary eoctety afloat.

Of- ten when one of them passes on Fifth Avenue a large crowd gathers and tne thoroughfare Is blocked until 1t passes out of sight. Of course, the occupants of the vehicle are highly amused by the sensation they are causing, but not eo the people who are dealrous of making some headway nnd are prevented from so doing by the crowd In front. Then those riding on bicycles are in constant danger of being run down by these ob- stacles. They are fast, exceeding the speed of horses, and they are untirable (not meaning they are tireless).
