Love and appreciation are to a women
what dew and sunshine are to a flower
They refresh and brighten her whole lifi.
They make her strong-hearted and keen,
sighted in everything affecting the welfare
of her home. They enable her to cheer
her husband when the cares of life press
heavily upon him, and to be very provi-
dence TO her children. To know that her
husband loves her, and is proud of her, and
believes in her; that even her faults are
looked upon with tenderness; that her face,
to one, at least, is the fairest face in the
world; that the heart which to her is the
greatest and noblest, holds her sacred, in
its inmost recesses, above all women,
gives he strength and courage, and sweet
ness, and vivacity which all the wealth Of
the world would not bestow. Let a wo.
mans life be pervaded with such an mfr
ence, and her heart and mind will never grow
old, but will blossom, ard sweeten, and
brighten in perpetual youth.

What one Lemon will Do.

Apiece Of lemon upon corn will re-
lieve it in day or so. It should be re-
newed night and morning. The free use
of lemon-juice and sugar will always relieve
a cough. A lemon eaten before breakfast
every day for week or two will entirely
prevent the feeling of lassitude peculiar to
the approach of spring. Perhaps its most
valuable property is its absolute power
of detecting any Of the injurious and even
dangerous into the composition of so very
many Of the cosmetics and face powders in
the market Every lady should subject
her toilet powder to this test. Place tea
spoonful of the suspected powder in glass
and add the juice OF a lemon. If efcres-
cence takes place it is an infallible proof
that the powder is dangerous, and lis use
should be avoided, as il will ultimately in
jure the skin and destroy the beauty Of the

How to make Mustang Wine.

As the season for wine making will soon
arrive, we copy the following directions
how to make wine from the mustang grape,
which are furnished the Mason News Item
by correspondents
Take four bushels of clean picked grapes,
put into a barrel and mash them well, with
out breaking the seed. When well mash
ed, add six gallons of water to make them
press well. For the press make a platform
(Say ) feet square) with strip all around,
except where the juice is 10 run ont. Then
use straw (clean oat or wheat straw as
long rs / can get, in the pomace, in the
same way we made cider in the old times.
| press them with lever or jack-screw.
The juice you get from a barrel will make
forty gallons of wine. Three pounds Of
good, coarse, brown sugar to the gallon
will be as much rs you can put in barrel,
if sweet wine is desired; if not. use less SUI
gar and more grape juice. Stake the sugar
in water before putting 1t into the barrel,
and be careful TO leave room TO put the sugar
all in the barrel; then, If not full, fill up the
remaining space with water, so rs 10 cN-
clude the air, then il viii begin to ferment
and run off at the bung hole. The barrel
mus, be TILED up every morning with water.
When the wine is done fomenting and set
ties down so it will stop running of,
then draw off, cleanse your barrel thor
oughly with limewater; burn some sulp hur
in il to make ii sweet, then pour your wine
back in the barrel and add one ounce ism
glass THAT which comes in sheets is the
BEST cut up fine, put in the barrel and stir
with good strong stick, then place the
barrel where it is to remain close the bung
and the wine will be ready for use in four
weeks. Be careful to put in the faucet be-
fore putting the barrel away, as it should
not be shaken after the isinglass is in if You
want good wine.
l have used this receipt myself for years,
and know if 1t be strictly followed the
wine will be good.

TIE political situation in Luzerne
and Lackawanna counties is described
to be as follows, by a writer from
Wllkesoarre The political situation
in the counties of Luzerne and Lack
awara is, however, in one particular,
presenting threatening aspect, and
only among thoughtful men in these
coal valleys is the full force of the
danger understood. The third party
known here as the National-Labor-
party-is controlled by few shrewd,
designing demagogues, men who have
no material interests here, and being
bankrupt in pocket and reputation,
risk nothing by resorting to desper-
ate expedients. These men make
little ado in asserting that they know
the road that leads to victory for
their party in the ensuing election,
and it is fully comprehended in that
one word-sfrikes, Everybody here
understands that but for the strikes
and riots of 1877 the '.workingmen' s
part" would not have succeeded in
electing Stanton Judge, Kinney sher-
if, and the rest of their ticket by a
majority nearly as great as the whole
vote of either of the other parties.
Already threats are heard in numer
Gus quarters that if it should become
necessary to insure the success OF
the Nationals In these two counties,
strikes will be inaugurated. This
much accomplishment it is easy
enough for unscrupulous leaders to
infiame the passions of the more ig-
norant classes-and lawlessness in,
evitably follows. If these leaders
can then succeed in so working upon
the passions of their duped followers
as to cause them to commit acts thai
will necessitate tie calling out of the
State troops, as they did in 1877, the
result would inevitably be the uniting
of the masses of the workingmen Oh
candidates selected from their OWL
number: their election would be
equally sure.

DURING rhe Democratic State admin

issue Of nearly one hundred thousand
dollars of State bonds. Whether il
was a mistake, or whether it was clear
clean steal of that amount by the ad-
ministration then in power, is not clear.
IF a Republican administration bad
done such thirg, it would be called a
steal. A Legislative committee has
been appointed to investigate the mat
fer and find out who has the bogus or
over-issued bonds, and to report all
about the matter as they fnd il. The
committee was in session al Phiiadel-
phis, last week, but late Intelligence
reports that they have no information
that is satisfactory as to how and by
whom the over issue was made.
