Care OF Tools.

There are Il variety ot mixtures which
may be applied to the iron portion of i'm
plcmeuJs to prevent rustimg, the cheapest
Of which is grease that has not been salt
ed An excellent article can be prepared
for the protection Of either steel or iron
by melting lard and common resin slowly
together and stirring the mixture as it
CoOls. When required in large quantities
make in the proportion Otabout SIX pounds
Of lard to two of resin. If only a small
amount is desired Il piece of resin about
the size OF hens egg will suffice for one
pound OF lard. This mixture may be ap-
piled with a cloth or any article that will
give thin coating to the metal surface
to be protected. The resin prevents the
lard from becoming rancid and the grease
excludes air and moisture. Before apply
ng the machines should be thoroughly
! relieved of dirt and dust; wipe the bear
! ings and oil with castor oil. Castor oil,

it not only turns readily but wears much
longer than when oiled with cheaper sorts
Of greases.
Not only is it economy to look after the
iron and steel part Of tools and machinery
but the woodwork claims attention. Re
peated wetting and drying soon Injuries
any wood, causing cracking and finally
decay. This may be prevented by the
timely and occasional application OF some
| cheap paint. When the woodwork from
exposure has become cracked it is advised
to give it a wash Of crude petroleum
previous to an external coat Of paint
Petroleum has strong preseryative
power, converting soft pershabe woods
to the durability Of hard woods. 1t not
only improves all wooden tools, but is
alike valuable for rustic furniture exposed
to the weather. An occasional coat OF
this oil improves their color and renders
them more lasting.

The Fourth Candidate for the Presto ancy.

There is something pathetic in General Dow's
hope that he may live to the liquor traffic sup
pressed, IN at least his own State The general is
beginning to be an old man He was born in
1903 1t is close upon thirty years since the first
prohbltOry legislation in Maine was passed. There
reaction for single year, and then, in ISIS
we believe, the law was passed submitted 10 and
approved by the popular vote which has remained
on the statute book ever since 1t has been
amended again and again at the demand of the
prohlbitlonlsts, but never has any provision once
enacted been repealed against their wishes In
short for more than twenty ears the prohtbltUry
sentiment has ruled overwhelmingly. No party,
Republican, Democratic or Greenback, d..res OF
has for five years dared 10 whisper a word against
the prohibitorv law in It's platform. And yet the
traffic is not suppressed in Maine, General Dow
being the Judge and he hopes to live to see the
end of it.
In his own candidacy General Dow admits that
he sees only ''the humble beginning of a trium
phant end lle Is mistaken about that Did he
not vote for Green Clay Smith in 1876 for James
Black in 1922 If he did rot, ho is nevertheless
the third prohibltory candidate for President, and
bids fair to get no more votes for the Office than
either of his predecessors,
Although there is not State in the Union
where the followers of this old champion but new
candidate of prohibition are numerous enough to
affect the result yet it is piece of the bascst in
gratitude for Name prohibitionist to give the
least cOuntenanco to the movement. The Repub
HcduS Oh tntt state nave nOne more TO give tlc
system advocated by this party fair trial than
the party itself would have done by national legis
aton. From the very organization of the RepuD
Hcan party in Maine it has gone the whole length
of the prohibitory principle. 1t is entitled to the
support of the most violent prohibitionists lnas
much as the Republicans Of Maine are not politi
cal idiots they will scarcely be attracted to party
which goes no further i'll attachment to what they
regard as temperance principles than their own,
and away from one which perccives some other
questions worthy to be considered as matters of
national Importance General Dow knows we'll
enough that every vote he will get in Maine will
be distracted from party which has ever been
ready to try any prohibitory nostrum of which he
was the author, and will increase the chances of
a fusion Of political rascals and vagabonds, who
would, if they dared, reverse all that he has so
laboriously accomplished in the last thirty years
If it not for the sincere belief of Republicans
in the wisdom of prohibition as a temperance
measure, it might be found that the party would
be indisposed to take orders from the most con
spicuous champion Of the system, and submit
without a murmur to the caprcous deserton Of
that person at time when votes are needed

The poets have not sung of thee July
As they have sung of favored May and June:
Yet With thy tropic heat and glowing sky
Which make thy days one long, perpetual noon
There comes a strange orgetfuness of care,
The weary, over burdened heart to bless
And to the dreamer it is given to share
The pleasures of voluptuous idleness.

There is none dearer than these days of thine

contest of conflicting ends We have had Repub-

for season the party seemed to stumble along
with an uncertain gait, but it has always had an
unerring instinct which in the end made it turn
right side up. When in 1860 the Republican ma
jorty in Congress declared for the payment of the
public debt, principal and interest, in coin there
