PRESS OPINION

THE republican brethren have solemn
" christened it the + second-best ticket.
Let It be kaown as such untilit is worst
ed in November.-AesB York Wortd.
WE must have more economical gov
eminent. How are we to get it except
by voting out republicans and voting In
democrats ?--PjttsbRrg Post.
DICK OGLEsBY, John A. Logan, Ben
Butler. and James g. Blaine, all speech
flying for Hayes and Wheeler. 'Rah for
reform (within the party).- Boston Gto6e'
THE republicans did not dare to nomi-
nate any of their men who have q nation
al reputation, because it somehow hap
pens that the farther these republicans
are known the less they are liked by the
masses of the People.-Troy Press.
IF the senate should be willing to con-
sent to an actual and considerable reduc-
tion OF government expenses the house
will not stand on %trifes; but there must
absolutely be an end Of extravaganza,
This is the true position, and it was ap-
proved by the people long agor-PHs-
burg Post.
PACKARD, Kellogg and the rest of the
Louisiana Grant family are calling upon
the president for troops to carry the cleo
tions in that state, and at the same time
they are shouting vigorously for Hayes
and Wheeler, who may he presumed, of
course, 10 represent that kind of republic
canism.
WILL the whisky ring resume the gov
ernment of the nation ? The power of
that corruption has not been destroyed.
We shall not he surprised tosee it in full
possession of its old sovereignty before
the end of the year. 1t is not a pleasant
prospect; but honest C~itizens will do
well to watch at thisPoint.-| hetho-
dist.
"Do you mean to imply that you have
any evidence of the slightest character
that [ have had, directly or indirectly,
any communication with Josiah Cald-
we'll ?" shrieked Blaine, as he swelled
himself Up to double his natural size, and
addressed Proctor Knott before the sub
| judiciary committee a week or two ago.
To-day there is abundant evidence of
such communication, and Mr.. Blaine's
sincerity and honesty are at a discount
and under suspicion.
TODAY the government will distribute
twenty-five million dollars in gold,
which is the interest money it owes on
its public debt. Twenty-Five million dol
lars, and yet there are people who think the
house Representatives is wrong in insist
ing upon a reduction of expenses in the
running of the government machinery.

SNAP BEANS.

Let the reader change the old way
of cooking them for once, and try the
following method. Gather the beans
in the early morn, and throw them
into a vessel of cold water Immediately.
String carefully, rejecting the pods
that ARE tough, and, as they are thus
prepared, cover with cold water
again. This abstracts the bitter taste
and adds greatly to the crispness of
the vegetable. When the dinner ap-
proaches, boil rapidly, with a little
salt, until the vegetable is perfectly
soft and tender, and then, after drain
ing off the water, serve hot, with the
addition of a little butter.
They will eat like marrow, and YOU
get the benefit Of the full flavor of the
vegetable.

BOILING POTATOES.

There are many ways of boiling po-
t~atoes, but only one best way, and
here are the directions: Let the po-
tatoes be, as nearly as conveient, of
equal size. Let the water boil before
putting them in. When done, pour
off the water aud scatter in three or
four tablespoonfuls of salt cover the
pot with a coarse cloth, and return it
to the fire. In five minutes take out
and serve. Watery potatoes are made
mealy by this process.

their best efforts to defeat the attempt TO

seems to me that Mr.. Parks states the facts
Of the case correctly. The Good Book says !:
" He that beeveth and Is baptized shall be
saved; but he that belicyeth not shall he
damned" Belief, then, is the nll-important
state to reach. "llecf is religion, as held by
all orthodox scots They deny that any one
can get 10 heaven who diSheleyes, though he
lives the best possible moral life. Indeed we
are often told that an honest mana mere NOR
ali-t is "A more dangerous foe to Christianity
than the Immoral man vino believes. Now If
he that hclieNeth aud Is baptized Is saved ir-
respective of his moral life, as the text asserts,
the best possible religion. because 1t saves the
soul. Yours for the right doing II not for

these fifteen clcrgymcn has taken any subject
that relates To practical religion, or has bearing
on reformation I'm life. about which the Scrip

be made very Interesting and Instructive.
For the especial benefit Of those clerical eN-

Poisoned by CoIorcd stockings.


A little girl named Collins was badly
poisoned by wearing striped hose. Tho stock
lngs were submitted to all analy Teal chemist,
and he reports;
CHICAGO, Jan Q.
m. /. 4. foNias.
DEAR SIR; / have carefully examined the stockings
you, ana INA that their realOruwu color
has been produced by tar use OF pierre acid which i
present VA very considerable quantity. This Hcld Is
POISONOUS and soluble water and preparation and
therefore, wed calcu Ted 20 act ar poison & the SKIN
particularly when applied To broken or abruded sur
faces The stockilgs also contain logwood aud traces
of chromium, out nothing else Of poisonous nature
ana therefore their poisonous action can be attributed
only to the acton OF the pcrc acid the influence Of
which would be much increased By warmth, causing
preparation. g. A. MARISRR Analytical Chemist.
1t appears from this report that the child was
poisoned by piCric acid, which Is u compound Of
carbolic and nitric acids. Ten grains OF this acid
VIII cause the death of a dog In II very short
time. and two grains are dose for e healthy
adult. Its effects upon the system are somewhat
similar to that Of arsenic. One-third OF n grain
Is a large dose for a child, and there appears TO
have been enough picrlc acid In the stockings TO
cause considerable advancement Of the sys-
tom OF the Collins Girls. The child Is stll in a
