For making up dresses for home wear,
the old style OF plain, round waist is quite
obsolete. The little house basque and
blouse waist, wide with box plaits, are the
most fashionable. The plaits of the latter
can be trimmed with narrow velvet or
braided. To the round waists of year
ago, can be added the Isadore position, :"
belt of the same goods, to which is added
pretty basque, the front cut in two points,
simuliting to vest. Three quarters of a
yard will be necessary to cut it from new
cloth. But, if the dress is cut at the same
time, the pieces left will make this coquet-
tish and economical arrangement, giving
an old-fashioncd waste a new and stylish
air. Another mode of making the blouse
waist is to initiate the box plaits with bias
bands placed ON in the same fashion. This
is one of the NOSE useful of fashions. For
wearing with skirt of silk or other goods,
they are made of cOlored flannel generally.
More expensive ones are made Of cash
mere. Very handsome blouse waists are
composed of white opera Goth, white me-
rino, or cashmere, the plaits embroidered
in colored silk or trimmed with narrow vel
vet ribbon Many skirts having outlived
the waists, these are really very ecouomi-
cal, as well as pretty additions to the ward
robe.

If the horn is Lioken close TO the skull,
the broken base should DC sawn off smooth
ly, scared over with hot iron, and patch
saturated in tar should be fastened over the
bare hollow. Another similar patch should
be laid over that, and SO on until it is quite
certain that the air is perfectly excluded.
The admission of air would be very painful
TO the COW. IL the pith Of the HON Is left
whole, it should be wrapped in tarred cloth,
until a new coating of horn has grown
over 1t or the sensitivencss has decreased.
In some cases a new growth soon takes
place. We have am idea that if rubbing
posts were placed in the yard, there would
be fower broken horns. Cattle commence
by rubbing each others horns together
proceed then to play, then get to fight
ing, and the result is broken HON OF
scored ribs.

Hancock Democracy.

The steady old democracy of Hancock

81 follows. We copy from The Carthage Re
publican
"The democracy Of Hancock county seem
to be almost unanimous in their determine
ton to stand by the Ohio platform. 1t il
gratifying TO know that they regard thai
platform in its trne lisht-not as a depart
ure' from settled principles or convictions
Of national policy-but as q pledge that the
democracy are a constitution and law abiding
people, and as such they propose TO main
tain the constitution and laws as they exist
until they can be legally changed, If the
national welfare demands such q change
The democratic party prides itself with hsv
ing been on the side of the constitution from
the foundation Of the government. The
democratic party can do no less than contIn
ne TO do this and claim tobe q patriotic ant
national party. To snnul an obJec.iona
amendment to the constitution will require
the assent Of a majority of Congress snt
three-fourths of the States. This is th'
manner prescribed by the constitution itselt
and any other course TO promote that enc
will be rapk revolution. LET the dead bur,
its dead" let the democracy move forward
and grapple with living issues. This is til,
platform of the Hancock democracy ant
upon it they will march to victory

How TO RAISE PEACHES. Many fruit
growers claim that, for various reasons
peaches cannot be grown successfully in this
section Of the States, but q correspondent OF
the Western Pmologist, who writes frou
Buchanan county, Iowa, states that he never
fails TO nave d good crop OF peaches every
year by q simple process of protection
which he employs. He cuts of the young
trees sixteen iuohes from the ground, and
allows the limbs to shoot ous on each side
below, like the RODS Of al umbrella. BY
weights or stakes he heeps them down IN c
horizontal position, so that the stump is like
a hub, and The limbs ike the spokes OF a
wagon wheel lying upon the ground. About
the middle Of august be euts back one
third, or one half OF the new wood with q
pair Of prualng shear6, aud late in the fall
covers the whole with corn stalks. Ia this
way the buds are saved.
