How to Do Up Shirt Bosoms.

A1Wvv w DV r ShBhk kDVoOunSs
We have often been requested by
lady correspondents to state by what
process the gloss on new linens, shirt
bosoms, etc is produced, and in order
to crafty them, we subjoin the follow
ing recipe: Take two ounces of fine
white gum arabic powder; put 1t in a
pitcher and pour on pint or more of
boiling water, according to the degree
of strength you desire, and then, hav-
ing covered it, let 1t stand all night. In
the morning pour it carefully from the
dregs into clean bottle, cork,and keep
it for use. A tablespoonful of gum
water stirred in a pint of starch, made
in the usual manner, will give to lawn,
either white or printed, look of new.
ness. when nothing else can restore
them after they have been washed.

EgQuite a sensation was created
here few days ago by the report that
Mr.. A. C. MILLER had failed. We are
vet without reliable information on the
subject. We can state however on the
best authority that the rumors about
the bank here losing by him are with,
out shadow of foundation. In no
manner or form is the bank liable to
lose cent by him in any event.

DEATH OF TIE Rev. Dir. DUTToN.-
Rev. Warner i. button, ID. d., died
at his residence in this place, at l2
o'clock, 2. NJ, Sept 5th' 1874. after a
brief illness. For more than thirty years
he had lived in our community, very
frail in body, but always active in doing
good, relieving want and counselling
the needy. For about twenty-five years
he was the pastor OF the Presbyterian
Congregation, and no pastor could re-
ceive a larger measure OF love, admira-
ton and gratitude than he received and
reciprocated. LII health at last made it
necessary for him to give up his charge
here, in the spring of 1866. After an
interval of rest he took charge of the
church at Harpers Ferry, but in conse-
quence of injuries received there. from
the flood in 1870, he was obliged to
abandon his active iabors as a minister.
He is wept and honored by the two
congregations, to whom he SO long and
so ably preached the everlasting gospel.
He was singularly modest and retiring,
tut his intellect was unusually powerful,
his preaching marked by rare ability
and uniformity, his counsel sought and
distinguished for its great wisdom.
lie died quietly, as he had lived,
trusting in the righteousness of the
Saviour whom he had preached.-Spirit
