r;iMHi iinck to I rec Trailr. A few years ago a great fuss was made by protectionists over the fact that .New South Wales, which under a free trade policy had been tho most prosjcrous Australian colony, had adopted a higher tariff. Itut the triumph of the trade restrictionlsts. aided thqugh they were by tho laboi party, which cared nothing for the tariff, but was willing to vote for protection in return for labor legislation, was .short lived. At the recent elections the free traders won by a large majority, and I

SOItED LAMP SHADES. Menus of Clennlnc Ui Kllmj- Urapo f Chlftoii am! Silk. Compressed air is of great assistance 111 cleaning lamp shades. Owing to thc delicacy of the fabrics a dry process should be used, as .silk, satin and lace lose their luster when washed, and, besides, the shade maker's touch is more or lo.s lost when the shades are taken apart. Procure an infant's hair brtts.li, which is made of soft bristles set in a bone back. The brush is small and for that reason and also because of iu softness, is lest adapted for cleaning silk and satin. Lamp similes which have been u,ed m suburban houses and are merely discolored with dust may be satisfactorily renovated by a careful n,n-11 r. Atle scouril,fr or scrubbing with this little brush. To free hice-eov..r.l
shades from dust apply corn-meal for light ones or Fuller's earth for dark, and remove all loose powder by geutle brushing nnd tapping, or by means of compressed air if this is available. Fly specks can generally be picked off with the poiut of a knife. Shades that are used in the city soon become noticeably soiled and blackened, particularly about the collar by reason of thc soot with which the air is charged. The quickest way to clean a shade that has been thus discolored s to immerse as much of it as possible In gasoline, which should be placed ia a clean dislipan, and move it briskly boat in thc thitd Delineator.
