Correct. Grumbling at ones wife when

agree that it is much more pleasant and a
great deal more satisfactory, to kiss ones

any one has a secret it will keep in better
condition longer by absolute personal atten-

secret is the most delicate and explosive

LATE TELEGRAMS.
THE FORTHCOMING SENATORIAL
CAUCUS.
From the st. Louis Republican.

From the st. Louis Republican
SPRINGFIELD January l2. - Notwith-
standing there is an indefinable something
indicating that Logan's strength is more
noise and bluster than anything else, his
friends are still confident and assert to-
night that he has eighty-two votes, Oglcsby
twenty and Farwell three. On the other
hand, Oglcsby's friends claim that three
counts, made to-day, by three different par
ties. show that the senator has more votes
than Logan. Neither of the above counts
are credited by the better informed, but
there is good ground Tor the belief that the
opposition have Logan down, but do net
know who is on top OF him. Logan's weak
ness WAS positively manifested after the
caucus was called last Friday evening.
Then the Kicking began, and an execu-
tive reception was announced for the same
evening and afterwards postponed, as the
gauzy character of the means to get out Of
an ugly scrape was too transparent. The
caucus will be held as announced, on next
Tuesday evening, with the understanding
that an immediate adjournment will take
place. This promise is made TO placateth
opposition and get them into this meeting.
The time for future caucus will bring out
a pretty fair test vote. The Logan men
will try for next Thursday evening, while
the opposition will insist on next Friday or
Saturday night, and possibly a later day.

The United States need more sheep. In all
parts of this great country, to secure health and
comfort, its people must have food and cloth
ing. The sheep furnishes the best and most
wholesome animal food, and the most comfort
able clothing yet tested by the masses OF our
people. In malaria distrlcts-especially those
where extremes of heat and cold are frequent
-wooen clothing and freer and more com
mon diet of good young mutton, would insure
better health and better vgor than generally
characterIzes pork eaters and the wearers of
cotton and fine linen.
From the best data within our reach, we as.
certain that there are on the entire globe about
500,000,000 sheep. OF these the United States
has but 35,0OOOO0. Our manufactures con-
sumo annually more than 225OO0,0O0 pounds
of wool. If each of our sheep furnished five
pounds of wool, there would be yearly deficit
of 100000 pounds.
Here is a good field for enterprising stock
men, We need double our present number Of
sheep. Let no one lndulgea single fear of ov-
reproduction of either mutton or wool. Could
our flocks be tripled or quadrupled, they would
add not only to the comfort and healthfulness
of the people. but to their intelligence and so
briefly, as well as to the productivcness Of every
field used as sheep pasture.-Droger's Jour-

Boiling water will remove tea stains, and many
fruits stains; pour the water through the stain,
and thus prevent 1t from spreading over the
fabric Ripe tomatoes will remove ink and
other stains from white cloth, and from the
hands A tcaspoonful of turpentine, boiled
with white clothes, will aid the whitening pro-
cess. Boiled starch is much improved by the
addition of little ssermaceti or salt, or both,
or little gum arabic dissolved. Beeswax and
salt will make tlat-ivons az clean and smooth as
glass. Tie a lump of wax in rag and kept
for that purpose; when the irons are hot rub
them with the waN-rag, then scour with a pa
per or cloth sprinkled with salt. Kerosene will
soften boots or shoes which have been harden
ed by water, and render them as pliable as
when new, 1t will also make tin tea kettles as
bright as new; saturate wooden rag and rub
with It. Stains may also be removed from
clean vanished furniture with kerosene.

A year ago some friends at HlllsbOrO, Texas,
sent us a sample of Nicaragua Wheat" and
asked Us whether anything could be done to
utilize il. Our correspondents stated that it
took twice the amount of fuel and time to
grind it that other wheats required, and then
did not make very good flour. The only rea,
son why the subject demanded more than pass
ing attention was the fact that enormous crops
of this Nicaragua wheat known as Rice Wheat
further nOrth) could be raised Forty and fifty
bushels per acre are far from being uncommon
yields, and sevcnty-Hve bushels per acre has
often been reached. 1t is quite hardy and
seems to thrive where ordinary wheat cannot.
Therefore it seemed to be promising scheme
if any one could find out how this wheat
should be ground SO as to make good flour.
From the limited amount of the grain sent us
we were only able to make few tests and we
gave the results at the time. The wheat is al
together too hard for low grinding, and we
stated that some gradual reduction process
would have to be resorted to- although even
then we were not sure that The mlddling could
be properly purified We also said that ninety
per cent. Of middlings could be made from
this wheat; IN fact, the wheat is nearly all
middings. When tested for gluten, the -four
from Nicaragua wheat showed an enormous
proportion, about twice that of ordinary -four,
if we remember rightly. 1t seems that the
proper method of treating this peculiar wheat
has been discovered and 1t is nothing other
than the New Process Mr.. John Webster, of
Detroit, has built for Messrs. Chambers Bros.
a ive-run mill near Austin, Texas, which has
been designed with special reference to grind.
ing this Nicaragua wheat on the New Process.
The null started up on June "a, and we learn
that its treatment OF Nicaragua wheat has been
entirely successful The wheat Is granuiated,
purified and reground the same as in an ordi-
nary New Process mill and the flour, though
having quite yellow t;nge that would injurc
its sale in our Northern markets, bakes out
quite white, and makes peasant-tasting and
nutritious bread There are many millers in
different parts of the country who will be pleas.
ed to know that Rice or Nicaragua wheat can
be made into good flour by the New Process ;
for although its color would iniure its sale in
many markets, there are many parts of the
country where the color of the flour is not
very important consideration so long rs the
-four itself is good 1t is therefore quite likely
that the production of this flinty variety of
wheat will be largely increased in future years
