fully indorse the testimony of the 81.

often cured, by a. free consumption OF
onions; either cooked or raw. Colds

the good effects will amply compensate
FIR the tritling annoyance. Taken regu-
larly they greatly promote the health
of the lungs and the digestive organs.
An extract made by boiling down the
juice of onions to syrup, and taken as
medicine, answers the purpose very

How TO CLEAN BRASS AND COPPER
The following mixture Will be found
the best thing for cleaning brass, cop
per, tin, stairrods, taps, and even win .
dows, and 1t Is quite worth the trouble
of making once II year, as quantities i

way Is TO store 1t In wide mouthed
pickle jars OF class or stone: pound
whitening, l pound rotten stone, l
pound OF soft soap, l teacupful vlne-
gar, as much water as will make it a
thick paste. Let it boil fully ten min
utes, and when nearly cold add half a
pint Of spirits Of turpentine. When
you use it pat very little on Il rag rub
the article you wish to clean well with

His Heresv--His Own Statement of His Be |
Qlief--The Conference Requests Him to
Withdraw.
Rockford. ILL.,, Oct. 14.-Dr. w. H.
Thomas made the following statement to
the Rock River conference to-day:
have, in the past, in all good faith,
sought to be in perfect accord with the
spirit and teachings of Jesus Christ, and
have supposed that was all the time.
and never for one moment, felt that
was not in the fullest sympathy with it's
spirit and work. Wishing to be entirely
candid, and that you may know the exact
state of my mind, will frankly state
that the only points on which I conceive
there may be room for difference Of opin-
ion or the possibility of misunderstan-
ding is on the subject of the atonment.

to the final condition of the wicked. I
fact of after death punishment, what ever
may be the condition of the lost, the ma
ture of their suffering, cannot conceive
of that condition under the government
of Just God as being worse than nom
existence, as the deviation of that pun
ishment, whether it will be eternal or
corrective, in reformation or annihilation.
Ihave not reached any settled convic-
tions. The subject has cost me almost
unutterable mental suffering, and 1 find
myself rs the years go by growing into a
large hope for mankind. On the ques-
tion of inspiration of the scriptures, 1
should find difficulty in accepting the
verbal theory, but do not fully believe
that the men who wrote the scriptures
were inspired, and that these scriptures
contain in substance the word of God,
and think that those who have heard
me speak frequently, or that careful
reading of my printed discourses, will
bear me out IN the truthfullness of these
statements, and in holding the views be
fore expressed, have not felt that was

Handsomely constructed Of black walnut

woman's underwear handily. The che
mise, the corset, the stockings, the shoes,
all have their places, so that woman
may be as orderly as the likes in
undressing, and without the old trou-
BILE of using all the chairs in the room.
Some of the bedrooms of the period are
really marvels Of exquisite taste, too sweet
and dainty far to deserve the rude occu-
pancy OF husbands. However, the best
of these apartments belong to maidens,
who show them with coyness and pride to
their male friends. The dazed fellows
stand palpitating on the threshold, gaz-
ing in at the vision of innocent somnol-
ancy and swearing on the spot to marry
the tenant of that beautiful bed or die.
The natural result of all this will be un-
usual number of weddings this winter.

PETTIGReW AS A WORKER,

The victory won by Hon. Il. F. Petit

deserves more than passing notice.
Single handed and alone, he set out in
December last to obtain the nomination
of delegate in congress. Against him was
o combination that would have Mt the
outset disbeartened almost any man
except Frank Pcttigrew. There was the
city of Yankton with It's old settlers and
business men, and numerous high Off
cials all solid against him. There was the
present incumbent, Hon. Granville G..
Bennett, of the Black Hills, man Of
marked ability and deservedly popular
throughout the territory, backed by post
masters and other officials who were his
special friends and workers, all agninst
Pettigrew in any event. There was Mar
shal Raymond, of the Northern Pacific
country, man who in aud of himself is
a tower of strength and n prodigy of in
dustry and perseverance, backed by a
small army OF devoted personal friends
1t was such combination as this that
Pettigrew undertook to beat. Those
who believed he could succeed were few
in number and rare as angels visits
