a good thing for our county eandl-
dates to observe the same regula-
tions as were inaugurated at the Ma
tiional capital during the late csn-
test in the Democratic party for
Speaker of the House. The aid OF
king alcohol to advance the inter-
ests of the several candidates was
never invoked, and thus the honor
of the party, as well as Of the cam,
didates, was maintained. We would
like to hail the glad day when the
custom of candidates treating just
previous to the election, or at any
other time, shall have been abans
doned, and the more honorable
method of appealing to mems reason
rather than their depraved appetites
to secure votes. The practice is de-
moralizihg and corrupting, and is
always regarded with more or less
suspicion by the more thoughtful
class of voters. This, it is true, is
rather an old custom in politics, but
in this day tho man who thus wins
his election ought to justly conclude
that, in measure. it has been done
at the sacrifice Of rue manhood. 1t
is with the people to sly whether
this damaging practice shall be per-
petuated. owl.

Whereas, In the dispensatien of
an All-wise Providence our Brother,
G. w. Cravens, has been removed
from the cares and troubles OF. this
transitory life to the eternal rest and
refreshment Of the beyond; there
fore, be it resolved by the brethren
in lodge convened,
First, That in the death Of our
brother the community in which he
lived has met with less irrepara-
ble; his family in their several rela-
tions to him a devoted husband,
father and friend, and this lodge one
who in his daily life fitly exempllfi-
ed the teachings and tenets Of our
brotherhood.
Second, That while mourning the
departure of our priend, and bowling
to the will of Him who hath called
him hence, We would not be un-
mindful of the fact that others were
bound to him by nearer and dsarer
ties, and to them We tender our SIM
eere sympathy in this their hour Of
sad bereavement may they feel
that their loss is our brothers gain.
The Lord knoweth best, and doeth
all things well.
Third, That in token oJ our sor-
row the members Of this lodge wear
the usual badge of mourning for
thirty days thatthsse resolutions be
spread upon tho records of this
meeting, and that they be published
IN the count, papers. and a copy
thereof be furnished the family Of
the deceased. LEDRC SILvEY,

The frequent use Of descriptive
terms applied to trees and fruit rem
ders them useful and interesting to
those who give their attention to hor-
ticuIture. For the benefit of those
not familiar with such terms it may
be stated that the calyx is the fe-
mains of the flower left at the stem !;
the basis is the depression around
calyx the crown, or snmmit, 10 She
ridge surrounding the ealyx; tbs
stem is that part connecting the fruit
to the twig Of the tree, and the base
is the part the most remote from the
crown.

BEAUTIFUL THINGS.

boautilnl faces are these that wear
/. natter little if dark or fair
"holc-souled hon, sty printed there.
Beautiful eyes are those that show,
Like crystal panes where heart-6res glow,
Beautiful thoughts that burn below.
Beoutiful lips are those whose words
Leap from The heart like songs of birds,
let whose utterances prudence girds.
Beautiful hands are those that do
Work that is earnest, brave and true,
Moment by moment the long day through.
Beautiful feet are those that go
On kindly ministries to and fro.
Down lowliest ways, if God wills it so.
Beautiful shoulders are those that bear
Ceaseless burdens of homely care
With patient grace and daily prayer.
Beautiful lives are those that bless
Silent rivers ofhappiness.
Whose hidden fountains few may guess.

A FRENCH journal gives the fol-
lowing method of preserving grapes,
as described by the inventor of the
process: At the end of October cut
the punches with the portion of wood
attached. 1 trim the base Of this
last to a point, and stick il into a
potato. Afterwards ] spread the
grapes upon straw, or very dry hay,
and as much as possible, so that
they do not touch each other. Thus
prepared, these grapes keep quite as
wen as IL the stems we're placed in
bottles of water
