As close a balance as it is possible
to show, and a decidedly better
showing than we had any idea could
be made from the manner in which
the original account conficted with
itself
Atpresent we have not time to ex-
anime it further. So far as We have
examined it we are not able to dis
cover anything wrong if we should
be able to do so we shall not hest
tate to make it known. 1t will be
observed that the asundries' account
which troubled the Register so much,
is itemized, and accounted for, and
the bills are on file in the Auditors
Office. The legal service account is
also given, and the cases noted in
which the fees were absorbed.

A Success.

The extensive first-clas steam mer-
chants Touring mills, "The Todd
Mills" just completed by S. H. Cock
rell q Co., at the foot of Pacific avenue,
were started yesterday, the engine and
all the mill machinery starting Off as
easy and smoothly as though they had
been running for months. These mills,
which we have heretofore spoken of,
are in all respects first-class, and of n
power and capacity second, we believe,
to no other in the state. They are
new from basement to roof-bulding
engine, mills, elevators, cleaners and
all the machinery being furnished 10y
Messrs. q. w. Todd L. Co., of st. Louis,
from which firm the new mills take
their name. The enterprising propr.e-
tors of the new mill are deserving of
the highest credit for establishing such
an enterprise in our city, and we be-
lieve they will receive a generous ell
from our merchants and
others. In few deys the mills will
be in thorough running order, and
ready for business, when we shall have
more to say about them.

A lady writing to the Country Gentle

so nice, removes every bit Of starch or
anything else, and makes them so

One girl taught me that old corsets
makes the best stove cloths. Just one
half at a time is II convenient size.
They are rcady-made, and much better,
when unfolded to take hold of any:
thing with, than II made holder, ana
much easierto wash. Just throw them
in with the brown towels, as many as
you happen to get during the week, and
they come out clean and ready to use
again.
Another girl pours hot water on the
blades only of steel knives, and they
wipe easily and do not need drying.
Another one told me that the best
way to keep hams and dried beef was
to pack it in dry salt. We have tried
it for several years, with perfect success.
An old salt barrel is convenient. Set
it in some cool, dry place; put quite
thick layer of salt in the bottom; then
pack in the hams, using the pieces OF
dried beef, if you have any, for chink.
ing cover with salt, then hams and
salt again, till the barrel is full. There
is not the least danger from insects, il
the hams are smoked and the beef
dried and put away early, before the
flies come around and they are much
nicer to handle than when put up in
ashes or oats, or anything of that kind.

An Interesting QuestiOn-Can Con-
sumption be Cured?

This question is often asked but rarely an
swered to the satisfaction of the patient. Our
answer is that pulmonary consumption IN
its ncipient form is as durable as any other
disease, if only the right remedies are applied
The question naturally arises as to what are
the remedies? In reply we state that Mars
rlen's Pectoral Balm has been used success
fully in over million of eases, and has been
adopted by physicians as the most reliable
remedy known for the treatment of Bronch-
ial affections.
One great reason that Marsden's Pectoral
Balm has gained such popularity the fact
that it is within the reach of all, and can be
purchased from all dealers at fifty cents for
g small or one dollar for large bottle. One
,ottle will effect a cure in most cases.
