TANNING FUR SKINS.

At this time of the year the inquiry
as to how to tan skins with the fur on
is frequently made. There arc several
ways of doing it, but the following is
recommended as among tho best:
After having cut Off the useless parts
and softencd the skin by soaking,
remove the fatty matter from the in
side, and soak the skin in warm water
for an hour. Then mix boraN, salt
peter and giauber salts in equal parts,
and in the proportion of about one half
ounce of each, for each skin, with
enough water to make Il thin paste.
Spread this with {, brush on the inside
of the skin, applying more to the thick
than to the thin places. Double the
skin together, flesh side, and lay it
away in cool place. At the expira-
ton oftwcnty-four hours wash the skin
clean, and apply in the same manner
as before Il mixture of one ounce OF sal
soda, One-half ounce Of boraX and two
ounces of hard white soap, melted
slowly together without being allowed
to boil. Fold the skin together again
rs before and place it in n warm place,
where it is to remain for another
twenty four hours, at the expiration of
which, soak it for twelve hours in the
following. -Four ounces of alumni,
eight ounces of salt and two ounces of
saleratus, dissolved in sufficient hot
rain water to saturatc the skin. The
skin is not to be placed in the mixture
until it is cool enough not to scald
the hand. After soaking the twelve
hours, writeing out the skin hang up
to dry. When dry soak again as be-
fore, and repeat the soaking and drying
process two or three times, or until the
skin is sufficiently soft. Lastly, smooth
the inside with fine sand paper and
pumicc stone.-N. Y. Post.

GaRFIELD's IKAUaURAL MESSAGE.
IN. .. Democrat j

| A Presidential message Is often not
read because it expresses only the ideas
of one man, who has but small share
in framing our laws and determtntna
our policy. This cannot be said OF
Garfieid's inaugural address, which
must prove an important and interest.
ing document to everybody. He is
known to be man who has personally
Investigated nearly all the matters
that will come before him as Prest.
dent ; he has great Influence over his
tion of the House and Senate, as far as
political parties are concerned, the
views Of the President have greater In.
tiuence and power than ever.
How will the people of the South
welcome Mr.. Garfield's address Aud
first of his views on Southern matters.
In speaking of this section of the coun-
try, lie Is very conservative, and any
thing but stalwart. He admits that
negro suffrage has brought many trOu-
bles, but defends the fifteenth amend
ment as absolutely necessary under
our form of government. So far as has
authority goes he will protect the
negroes in their rights, Is the sub.
stance of his platform, and this Is not
very bloody-shirt or threatening. In,
this connection, it is to be observed
that Mr.. Garfield does not take sides
with the advanced Radicals who have
lately been concoctfng scheme to
scripple the South politically by dis
franchising the negroes through an
educational amendment limiting tho
the elective franchise to those who can
read and write.
The late war he refers to In friend
ly spirit, declaring his belief that a
now united people had determined- to
leave behind ssthe controversier'' that
engendered it and to work together to
build up the country.
On material questions Mr.. Garfield
is with the South and West rather than
the East, and his views will certainly
not be objected to here. Hc thinks
that the Federal government should
give some aid to the public schools,
wants a ship railway or canal built
across the isthmus, but under Ameri-
can control solely, and would like to
see the Federal government do all In
its power to improve and develop our
industries, our great national water
ways, and our rivers and harbors. On
financial questions, he wants bond at
a lower rate of interest, without COM
pelling the withdrawal of tho national
bank notes, and favors a be.metallfc
currency but proposes an International
conference to fix the relative value of
gold and silver. On tho Mormon
question Mr.. Garfield will greatly dis
appoint Delegate Cannon, who pre-
tended to expect favorable cOnsidera-
ton from him, for he calls on Congress
in the most emphatic manner to do
something to put an end to polygamy
in Utah.
The message is Comparatively short
and quite clear and vigorous, dealing
but little in those vague and glittering
gencralities which make so many presi-
Dental messages utterly Incompetent
sible. AS we have said already, most
of the points of the message, tho i'm
provement of our public school sys-
tenn, the Endorsement of the Monroe
doctrine, our industrial Improvement,
ETC., will not be opposed or objected to
here.
