FERRER PROTEST. 1 F I "TRAFALGAR SQUARE MEETING, j POLICE CHARGE THE CROWD. The iiitense indignation caused by the execu- 1t;)U by the Spanish Government of Senor iK-. rrer is evidenced by the reports .of great popubr demonstrations of protest which took •••pi;see on Sunday in this country, as well as in ;$'"raiice and Italy. It is estimated that about 10,01)0 persons assembled in Trafalgar-square .m1 Sunday afternoon, the meeting having been ver<1.L>d by the Social Democratic Federation and < -other organisations. Ih-re were several mourning banners of i k, on one. of which was print.ed in big white /.fteiterK "To wi.:h the murderer, Alfonso." O'Grady, M.P., denounced our own <€$< < A rient for not interfereiilg to prevent the «i i >> of Ferrer. Owing to the apathy of the •working classes the power of the plutocratic was growing, but things were alter- ing. and the great movement which was going v.Oamight find expression even in this country. Mr. Victor Grayson, LLP., said he regarded -fee murder of Ferrer as a local outbreak of a •cosmopolitan feeling. The shooting of Ferrer ;wi insult to the intelligence of Europe, and l\iae <bg;li$r«d the price would be paid, ar.d that I very long. The life of Ferrer would 1; r to be paid for, but one murder could not l healed by another. Killing never did any j •jfood. j Other speakers included Mr. H. M. Iiyndman iefcnd Mr. R. B. Cunninghame-Graham, who de- jWamled the instant withdrawal of the British j ^i^feassador at Madrid. A resolution condei\r.i- ■Stug the action of the Spanish Government was C;>s«ed, with three or four dissent'euts. At the .stance of the chairman, the whole gathering "febe»Tt stood for a few moments bare-headed out respect for Ferrer. .the meeting concluded, the crowd, J "Shaded by the black banner, marched in a body 4*1 the Spanish Embassy, Grosvenor-gardo.: s. fOn their arrival, however, they found the ] Building guarded by police, while mounted t Coliee rode amongst them, preventing any orga- -JRUed assembly. After awhile the police suc- .f,/j5eeded in driving the people into side streets. jA rush was then made for the Roman Catholic 1¡C8i.th{\1l'1'J1 at Westminster, and speaking was .^osnmenced before the police arrived.

The danger was only momentary, for 4 large force of police hurried to the scene, and -without difficulty drove the people from around "fche entrance, It was some time, however, be- re the crowds were finally dispersed.

BUDGET BULL'S-EYES.
BUDGET BULL'S-EYES. (FROM THE BUDGET LEAGUE.) Some weeks ago, when it became evident that the Budget was popular with the great mass of the people, the word went forth that the tactics in fighting it must be changed. The cue was given to candidates, Members of Parliament, Tariff Reform speakers, Budget Protest League speakers, licensed victuallers, and to the Opposition journals: Drop the Dukes and talk about j unemployment." Ever since that time we have been treated day by day to speeches I and articles which do not discuss the actual proposals of the Budget, or, indeed, the [ actual proposals of Tariff Reform. We know what the actual proposals of the Bud- get are, but nobody knows yet what the I actual proposals with regard to Tariff Re- form are. But the idea behind the new propaganda is to try to convince the work- ing man that the Budget means less em- ployment and that Tariff Reform means j "work for all." t • "+ m j The whole of the new programme is a pure political dodge on the part of the rich who are directing the opposition to the Budget to secure the transfer of the burden j which Mr. Lloyd-George proposes to put on j them to the shoulders of the poor. It is only another phase of the squealing of the rich. From the beginning they began to ilig cry out, but the Dukes and others, who will for the first time pay something like a fair < contribution to the upkeep of the State, were laughed at when they pretended that J they were not concerned for themselves but were only troubled about the poor. This cry about unemployment is part of the same game. Everywhere the poor working man who is out of work is being told that if the Budget passes capital will be sent, out of the country, and there will be less employment. < Now let us examine the threat To be- gin with, there is the tax on land, and it is this tax more than all the others to which objection has been taken. Whatever the rich may do with their money, they cer- tainly cannot take their land away, and, as every student of political economy knows, it is the land question that is at the bottom of most of our troubles with re- gard to unemployment. Mr. Lloyd-George's Budget will have a tendency to force land into the market and to lower rents. It will, therefore, make it easier for manufac- turers to carry on their business. There is no country in the world where, even after the Budget is passed, capital will be so safe as in England. Only the other day Lord Faber, who is a Tory Peer and the head of a great banking firm, said that he thought people were unwise who were talking about investing in foreign countries rather than in England, and it is not true that capital will leave the country because of the Bud- get in any greater measure than it has pre- viously done. And the people who are threatening to take their capital away know this quite as well as anybody else. It is true that this country, out of its enormous wealth, does lend money for the development of other countries. One of the secrets of England's greatness is her lend- ing capacity, and the prosperity which en- ables her to do so much lending is a great tribute to the system of Free Trade under which the wealth of the country has been built up. Now this lending capacity makes London the centre of the world's financial life It makes London the great distribut- ing centre of the world's commerce. It makes customers for our manufactures, and it secures the development of new countries which can produce us cheap food. We get cheap corn and meat from the Ar- gentine because we have lent money to people there with which to develop their country. Another result of the development of a country is that wopk is found for our manufacturers. People in the north of England receive orders for locomotives, steel rails, machinery of all kinds, clothing, and boots simply because, by the lending of capital, these countries are enable to de- velop themselves, and the foreign orders that our manufactured get are due in great measure to the fact that some of our sur- plus capital has left the country and is being employed elsewhere. < If the capital that we have already lent to the Argentine were taken away there would soon be a scarcity of food in this country, and prioes would go up enor- mously. There would also be less work, be> cause orders would cease to come from people who had no capital for the develop- ment of their country. » j If it be true that to tax the rich rather than the poor will produce all the evils of which we are now being told, why do not. these people be consistent and suggest that the rich should never be taxed at all ? If the employment of the poor depends upon the rich being as rich as possible, the logi- cal conclusion is that the poor should never; be allowed to have any money at all, which, as dear old Euclid used to say, is absurd. The truth is that every penny taken in taxation will go as wages to somebody, Why is the money being taken 1 Some of it j is for the making of better roads, and some | of it is for the building of ships necessary for defence. Neither of these things can be done without employing a great many people. Some of the money is being distri- buted as Old-Age Pensions, and that money will employ the tradesmen and workers who provide food and housing and clothing for the aged poor, and every use- j ful trade in every town and village will t feel the increase of employment. I | It is a fallacy to suppose that the poor I are employed only by the rich. They are i employed by each other, and whether is it ? better that they should be employed in j making necessaries for the poor or in the j provision of extravagant luxuries for the j rich.? If we take the money from the rich | it is perfectly true that the rich may have j to be content with fewer luxuries, but if we { take it from the poor then the poor will i have to starve.
HOME HINTS. '"
HOME HINTS. When putting a rod through the hem of ? curtain, the stick is liable to tear it. Any* Way, it does not generally slip through easily. But just put a. thimble on one end of the stick, and you will find it will glide through without causing any inconvenience. A good remedy for stained knives is to have a penny box of powdered bath-brick standing on the sink, and, after washing the knives, apply a little briskly on a piece of damp rag. This is a good recipe for neuralgia: Lighft a piece of brown paper, blow out the flame, c and inhale the smoke through the nostrils. In frve minutes the pain will have entirely dis- appeared, with invariable success. One of the commonest causes of broken incandescent gas mantles is that of being too precipitate in applying a match to the gas. The match should never be struck before turning on the gas, so that the latter may have time to envelop the mantle before it is lighted. To cure cramp in the legs at night make a garter of wide tape, and on to it sew thin slices of cork cut from a wine-bottle cork. Wear this regularly every night in bed. As cramp probably comes from acidity, reduce this ny drinking hot water every night before going to bed. A teaspooftfut of powdered alum to a test- cupful of lukewarm water sniffed into the nogtrils will stop bleeding from the nose. When the nose bleeds make the patient lie fiat, with the head thrown back, and a cold sponge over the nape of the neck, and another pressed over the bridge of the nose. Be careful of dripping and fat when cook- ing. If you put dripping in the oven, keep a sharp watch on it, or it will blaze up when the oven door is opened. Never throw water on boiling fat, it only makes it boil over worse than ever. Some salt or earth is the best thing to put it out. Don't try melting beeswax and turpentine in the oven; the turps catches alight with surprising ease.

Waggles: "Well, he's convalescent; but he won't be out of danger until that pretty nurse who has been taking care of him has gone away." "Yes, grandma, when I graduate I intend following a literary career—write for money, you know." "Why, Willie, my dear, you haven't done anything else since you've been at college." ¡ "The worst of Spongely is he never pays anything," said Grabbles, "un, doesn't he, though? Ask him to pay you a. visit and see," retorted Hicks. She: "Jack told me that that hospital was built entirely at his expense. Is it possible?" He: "Well, Jack's uncle cut him off with a hundred pounds, and left the rest of his money to build the hospital." Departing Guest: "We've had a simply delightful time!" Hostess: "I'm so glad. At the same time, I regret that the rain kept all our best people away." Hospital Physician (with a view to diag- nosis) "What do you drink?" New Patient (cheering up at the proposal): Oh, sir— thank you, sir-whatever you—I leave that to you, sir!" "Marquess, is it possible to confide a secret to you?" "Certainly! I will be as silent as the grave." "Well, then. I have absolute need of two thousand pounds." "Do not fear. It is as if I had heard nothing." Counsel (to the jury): "The principal fault ef the prisoner has been his unfortunate cha- racteristic of putting faith in thieves and scoundrels of the basest description. I have done. The unhappy man in the dock puts implicit faith in you, gentlemen of the jury!" A gentleman was once asked by a waiters 'Am sir? Yessir. Don't take hanythink with your 'am, sir?"

"Salt," said Peters. "Next!" said the teacher. "What is it makes the water of the f sea so salty?" "The salty quality of the sea-water," answered "Next," "is due to the admixture of a sufficient quantity of chloride of sodium to impart to the aqueous fluid with ] which it commingles a saline flavour, which is readily recognised by the organs of taste!" "Right, Next," said the teacher. "Go up one!" Barney Molloy and Mike Carey were mix- 1 ing mortar.

AFFECTED BY THE TEETH. The shape of the nose, lips, and mouth, and the quality of the voice, are directly affected by the character and position of the teeth. Defects sadly apparent later in life may often be traced directly to premature loss of the first or baby teeth. The wise mother will insist on perfect cleanliness of the child's teeth and mouth. In after years, she will receive the grateful thanks of the child. FRKVBNTS DRAUGHTS. Many people who would otherwise adopt the healthy habit of sleeping with open win- dews will not do so because they are afraid of encountering a draught. A simple way to avert the danger is to cut a piece of fine muslin the width of the window, and about six inches deep. Fasten it to the top and sides of the window with- drawing-pins. This does away with all fear of draught when th window is open, as the air is slowly filtered I through the muslin, which also keeps out the 11 dust. PUTTING OW A VZIL. It is an art to get a veil on well, and much depends on the start. Always tie a new veil in a small knot in the centre of the upper edge. This will give a little fulness, which permits it to lie over the face without stretching. Pin-never tie-the two upper ends on the hat and the two lower ends low down on the hair, almost at the neck. A trick of taking care of the lower front edge- at the chin line is to pull it well down, twitt in the middle and tuck the twisted part down into your collar. This keeps it secure and makes a becoming frame to the chin if you are slender, but if "ou have a full neck do not let the veil come over it. TL. BE CHEERFUL. Engraved faces are often the result of habit. Woman is not content with express- ing herself in words; she must needs make little noses and funny face to give completion to her idea. If you wail about your lack of beauty, watch yourelf for one short day. You will be surprised to find what wonderful things you will do with vour own face. If countenances were not so substantially built, they would sooner show the wear and tear imposed upon them. Wrinkles and lines are indexes to one's life book. The fretter has a signboard on her forehead, and she adver- tises her profession of official worrier by growing box-pleats between her eyes, by allowing her mouth to droop at the corners, and by taking on the plaintive portrait of misery in which she really rejoices.
