VALUABLE SUGGEsTIONs.-Too low an
estimate is apt to be set on the domestic
value of newspapers. After reading
them, and putting ourselves, through
their agency, in mental correspondence
with the world, they are thrown aside
and forgotten. But to suppose their
usefulness bounded by their news col
umns and the waste-bag is thriftless
mistake.
In the first place, there are the house
hold recipes, to be found in stray cor
ners, often excellent, and deserving
refuge on the fiy-leaf of the family
cookbook. Then come the pretty
verses, the strange and droll stories,
the brief biographies and "reminiscences
which, pasted in a scrap-book, are a
source of never-ending pleasure, not
only to those who do not care for rich
er intellectual food, but to those who
have only odd minutes for reading.
Notwithstanding the squibs jOcular
journalists have penned ON the use of
newspapers for bedclotliing, we know
from experience that these are not to
be despised. They may not be as COM
Portable as your blankets, but certainly
they keep out the cold. Two thickness
es Of paper are better than pair of
blankets, and in the case of persons
who dislike the weight of many bed
clothes, they are invaluable. A spread
made of double layer of papers be-
tween a covering of calico or chintz, is
desirable in every household. The pa
pers should be tackled together with
thread, and also basted to the covering
to keep them from slipping. An OBJ
lection has been made on account of
the rustling, but if soft papers be cho-
sen the noise will not be annoying, es-
pecially should the spread be laid be-
tween a blanket and the counterpane.
As protection to plants against cold,
both in and out of doors, nothing is bet
ter. II newspapers are pinned up
over night at window between pots
and glass, the flowers will not only not
be frozen, but will not even get chilled,
as they are so liable to be at this sea-
son. In the same was, If taken to cov-
er garden beds, on the frosty nights of
early autumn, they will allow the plants
to remain safely out doors some time
later than is common.
One of the oldest services to put our
eur journals to is the keeping of ice in
Summer. An ingenious housekeeper
recently discovered that her daily lump
Of ice would last nearly twice as long
when wrapped in newspapers, and
placed in any kind of covered box, as
when trusted solely to refrigerator.
This is very convenient, since it is pos
sible to have the best and cheapest re-
frioerator constantly on hand.
To polish all kinds of glass after
washing, except table glass, no cloth or
flannel is half SO good as newspaper;
and for bakers dozen Of other uses,
quite foreign to its primal purpose, it is
without rival.-Scribner's Monthly.

OLD Folks CoNCERT.-The "Old
Folks Concert given in Town Hall
last Thursday and Friday evenings,
under direction of T. B. Cunningham,
"Singin' Master" was a complete sue
cess. The Hall was full each night
with very appreciative audience. A
good deal Of care had been taken in Or
der to get up and arrange the costumes
as they were worn in the days when our
fathers and mothers were young. The
suits, with scarcely an exception, were
those worn from twenty-five to seventy
five years ago. The styles of bonnets
and hats of fifty years ago were quite
remarkable. One bonnet in particular
was quite curiosity. 1t was about the
size Of coal bucket, resembling that
article somewhat in shape, and was
made Of the finest of fur. 1t is the
property of Mrs. Ann Larwill, of
Wooster, and is sixty years old. A fine
leghorn hat about three feet across, was
worn by Mrs. John Larwill, of Wooster,
over fifty years ago. Another straw
bonnet, owned by the same lady, was
also over fifty years old. Coats were
worn that were made sixty-five, sixty
one, sixty and forty years since. These
were all remarkably well preserved,
and looked as thongh made but year
or two since. The ladies were very for
tunate in obtaining suits that carried
the older people back to the days of
their youth. A few Continental suits
were represented, as was also Mary
Queen of SCOTS. One lady appeared in
the modest and appropriate costume Of
a Quaker lady. Other characters were
to perfection. Cousin Reu-
ben, the Green Mountain boy, in his
Yankee costume, and peculiar manners,
was quite contrast to the rest Of the
performers. Many OF the old tunes
were sung with good deal of energy
and spirit. Tears started in the eyes of
many of the old people as the strains of
some favorite old songs burst once more
upon their ears, carrying them back to
lays of "Auld Lang Syne." A num-
Der Of solos, Duets, quartetts, &C., were
nterspersed throughout the programme
which gave variety to the entertain
nent. The piano solos rendered by
Miss Dora Lisle were well received.
The guitar solo by Mr.. Smith, was en-
Dyed by all. Some Of the old time
singing masters who were present were
much pleased with the manner of con-
iucting the concert. The music through |
,ut was well rendered, the costumes |
we're faithful representations of the
'olden time," and the concert on the
whole was an enjoyable one. The pro-
eeds amounted to $1,000.

last Pioneer, in opposition to the
election of Mr.. Churchill, which to
a large number of our people, in
Guiding many Republicans, looked
quiet absured. The simple idea
that the interests of this county
could be as well represented by an
outsider as home man is all folly.
Being personally acquainted with
Mr.. Churchill, can but say that |
deem him the best man that we
could send to Lansing to represent
MS under the present circumstances.
Onr interests are his interests, and
cice cersa. The argument that be-
cause the man is q Democrat any
measure that he would introduce
in the Legislature would have the
effect to prejudice that measure
there to such an extent as probably
kill it," is too weak an argument
to put on paper. The fact is, if
the measure introduced in any
body, whether by a Democrat or. Re-
publican, be a just and needed one,
it will receive as much attention,
and be as liable to success as any
measure introduced by some other
politician, and as the Republicans
of Alpena have not a candidate
from orr own midst to favor, it is
certainly to our greatest advantage
to do the next best, and that is tc
elect, if possible, the able candi.
date, who is one of our own citi.
zens, and practical and thorough
business man among us, on the
Democratic ticket, to represent VI
in the State Legislature.
1t is nothing new for the Ponce.
to work against the interests o
this county. 1t has done it eve1
since the present manager has hat
control of the organ, and proba
bly, always will.
Respectfully Yours,

Our Representative.

The following communication
from one of our leading citizens
speaks for itself and needs nc
comments at our hands;
Mr.. EDlToR:-You may think
it strange that I, a Republican,
should seek the columns of a Dem
ocratic journal for the purpose Of
furtbering any political cause. But
in doing this, l honestly believe
that I am favoring something that
is for the interests Of the people Of
Alpena, and perhaps this whole
Representative District,
There appeared an article IN the
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1874-10-28
That Constitution.
A REPUBLICAN.

The amendments to the Constitu-
ton, to be voted on next Tuesday,
are simply the old Constitution as it
is, or an ofIshoot of all the COM
bined idiocy the State Legislature
contained during its last session.
A Constitutional Commission was
appointed, composed Of the ablest
legal men of the State, and they,
after session of several weeks,
presented a Constitution which was
acceptable to most of the people of
State, and great Improvement on
the old; but when it was placed
before the Legislature for their adj
option, they arose in all their wis
dom, and proposed to amend, strike
out, and spoil this Constitution
and they did so; and the result is
that this fall the voters are left to
choose between the old Constitu-
ton, with all its imperfections and
faults, and the new one with no
good qualities, and all bad. The
option is poor one, and in order
to have a satisfied people, the
amendments should be voted "NO,"
and when new Constitutional Com
mission shall be appointed, a proper
Constitution should be submitted
to the people without its being al
tered by a Legislature knowing
nothing of the legal effects Of q
Constitution.
