Autumn Leaves.

There are few things more suitaDlel
for decorating our homes in Winter
than these bright leaves of Autumn.
With little taste in arranging and
disposing them about our rooms, they
will add untold beauties even to what
was beautiful without them; and
those who have not many lovely
things can i'll afford to dispense with
this cheap and unsurpassed adorn-
ment.
/ will give you q secret for turning
an ugly thing into thing of beauty
IF your parlor has a window with a
disagreeable view, make it an or
namental window thus: Get Autumn
leaves and press them; | am very sue
cessful in merely ironing them with a
hot tlatiron, exactly In the manner OF
smoothing q garment, until the moist
ure is dried out of them. I put the
iron right upon the leaves, and though
some will be spoiled, | set plenty, so
that there will be good ones enough
left; for this process, although little
iris Ky" is preferable to some more
careful methods, as il gives the leaves
most brilliant color, and rich, CLOS
sy surface and they keep it all the
Winter through, even Id the case OF
the most delicae tints. Having pre-
pared the leaves in this. manner, glue
them upon sheets CT paper just the
size of your window panes. Take
white paper or any delicate tint, as
best. suits your taste and arrange the
F1oaves upon it in graceful designs;
! then glue the sheets upon the paneS OF
glass, entirely covering the obnoxious
window: cover the Whole with coat
Of white varnisl, and then step back
and view the effect. You cannot i'm
agine until you try it, how pretty this
will be.
MY neighbor, Mrs. B. whose parlor
windows have d peculiarly unfor-
! tunate outlook. has thus converted the
! ugly oIamisA into an ornament. She
| has tNU Of these beautiful windows,
one OF. which has Wreaths Of American
| ivy leaves, glowing scarlet and Grim
son, and rose, upon ground OF del
icate araY another IS arranged with
boquets Of brilliant maple, sumach,
lbirch and other Vari-colored leaves,
and it is gorgeous. In this last hangs
basket. of ferns, and the softened
light shines through the glowing win
dow, and falls in many-colored rays
upon the waving fern plumes, making
one of the loveliest sights / ever saw.
IT is worth a whole suite of eel
egant parlor furniture" in the way of
adorning a room, and has the merit Of
costing nothing but little time and
taste for the beautiful Cor. Floral
Monthly.

OLIVER 2. MORTON.
HIS LAST WORDS, REMAINS IN STAT

HIS LAST WORDS, REMAINS IN STATE,
FUNERAL. fG
al am worn out" were the last words
of Oliver p. Morton. He was con-
scious of his situation, conscious that
he was dying, and at two different
times said 81 am dying: am worn
out" And no wonder he was worn
out. His labors had been enough to
wear out any one, perhaps even unto
death.
His remains were escorted to the
Court House at 10 o'clock Oh Sunday
morning by the Light Infantry and
the pall-bearers and lay in state in the
center of the Main Hall till half past
seven, when the hall was cleared and
the ingress stopped except to relatives
and near personal friends Of the Sen
ator. Report says that q continual
flow of people passed through the hall
and that over $4,000 viewed the corpse.
Again on Monday morning from the
opening of the Court House doors till
1890, notwithstanding the heavy rain,
an uninterrupted throng numbering
thousands passed through the hall
viewing the remains. From the Court
House the casket was taken to the
hearse and then to the residence where
it remained till taken at 1890 to the
church where the exercises were SOL
emn and impressive. From the church
the remains were taken to the hearse
and then to Crown Hill cemetery and
deposited in the vault of the chapel.
In all removals the remains were eS-
corted by the military, and in process
sion according to the programme.
Thousands of the citizens of Indiana
and of other States and Washington
were in attendance. The hall of the
Court House, the rooms at the resi-
dence, and the church were highly and
appropriately decorated with flowers
and the hall and church with flags. A
United States Senator, worn out with
his labors, had passed to his reward
And nation was in grief and mourn
ed his loss.

ELECTION IN FRANCE.

Another election was held in France
last Sunday-this time for the election
Of Councils General and councils Of
ACCOMPLISHMENTS. AS far as heard from
the Republicans have gained So Coun-
sellers General and claim large gains
in the Councils ACCOMPLISHMENTS.
These elections are considered OF
great Importance, particularly Of the
Councils General. The Senate COM
prises 800 Senators. Of these seventy
five are life members, and Of the other
225 members the terms of seventy-fve
expire every third year, making the
Senatorial term nine years. The Coun-
cilors General elected now will choose
the seventy-fve Senators to fill the.
places vacated next year. So each OF
the political parties has put forth its
ablest efforts and the Republicans have
come out successful.
Due De Broglie, President Of the
Council and Minister of Finance, has
been defeated by a Bonapartist.

.Ast cnishlng Success.

1t is the duty of every person who has used
BosCHEE's GERMAN SYRUP to let its wonderful
qualities be known to their friends in curing
Consumption, severe Coughs, Group, Asthma
Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung dis
eases. No person can use it without immediate
relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and
we consider it the duty Of all Druggists to re-
commend it to the poor dying consumptiyes. at
least to try one bottle. as 10000 dozen bottles
were sold last year, and no one case where il
failed was reported Such medicine as the
GERMAN SYRUP cannot be too widely known.
Ask your Druggist about it. Sample bottles to
try sold at 10 cents. Regular size Is cents. For
sale at StarkWeather's Drug Store. 26y1

Keeping pickles.

Keep pickles in glass jars if possible;
if not, in unglazed stone jars. Glazed
jars are as poisonous as any bell-metal
kettle can be. Having once bought
your glass or stone jars, keep them for
that purpose always. Never allow
them to be used for anything else. AS
soon as one is emptied, wash, scald,
set in the sun till well sWeetened, then
cover up and set away carefully for
another year, saving all the covers OF
cOrks. H-.

4 RAGIrv.--A rich treat Of a rare Kind
is in store for the citizens Of Somerset and
vicinity during the coming holidays. The
new City Hall will he completed in due
time and opened with two grand entertain
ments of excellent merit, ailording the
most exquisite pleasure for the old as we'll
as the young. At present no very definite
programme can I've gi'en, but suffice to say
that the material composing the Somerset
Social Orchestral and Dramatic Club is Il
sufficient guarantee within itself to satisfy
the most skeplical that it will be we'll
worth their while to witness these enter
tainments. The very best Young ladies
and gentlemen Of the town, comprising, Of
course, the very finest intellect, compose
this Dramatic Company, which bespeaks
success pre-eminent. The Hall is large,
having seating capacity for 800 persons; is
fre-proof and has a very finely arranged
stage-an important requisite; very fine
natural scenery, taken principally from
Cumberland River, The whole arrange
ment Is under the direct supervision Of a
thoroughly competent manager, who has
had long and successful experience in mu-
steal and theatrical entertainments. The
Hall will he fitted out after modern plans,
and will in no respect vary from irst-class
city theatres, only in seating capacity. The
