The storm is on in earnest all
over Pennsylvania. Hon. Charles

the lines. Even the Philadelphia
press is being enlivened with such
kilograms as the following:

Charles Wolfe, who led the Re-
publican Independents in Penn
.sylvania several years ago, recent
ly made speech at Bradford in
which he formally announced his
intention to leave the Republi-

his speech he referred to the Re-
publican party in the following
vigorous terms:
"What evidence has the Republican party

OUR DAYTON LETTER.
Org. 'nise and Force the Fight, tn,
True Policy for West Virginia.

l suppose the Prohibitionists OF
West Virgl MIA will hold some sort
of Conference or Convention this
year. If not, the State Committee
should outline a policy that will
be definite and eal'ily understood.
To declare unchans eably in favor
OF the principle of Prob, 'batlon would
certainly be wise, as it " i'll test the
views of our people. 1t must be
ascertained who are in favor OF this
and who are opposed.
Having worn out the "subm' H.
sion" policy, there should be, as )
think, readjustment of plans and
policy. Organize on the principle
of the Prohibition of the legalized
liquor traffic for drink purposes.
In this way, develop the other side
and create two parties, one in favor
of the principle of Prohibition, and
the other opposed to it. Follow this
by organizing clubs, made up of
those who favor the principal, in
every School district, where three
voters can be found who are on
that side. Have just as little ma
chinery as possible. Let each dis
trict do its own work unless outside
help is absolutely needed. The
condition of membership should be
the pledge to hold that principle
sacred at the ballot-box.
There is room for but two parties
in this country, the Prohibition
and Whisky parties. Concentra-
ton against the saloon and organi-
zation for the saloon must be forced
upon the voters of the State, and
the issue will be clearly defined.
Let every shot be directed at the
men who are in favor of the prin'
ciple of license-Waste no ammunl'
ton on anything else, and revo'
luton will be wrought in short
time, by which the State will be
free from the legalized traffic.
Hold the Capitol against the Sa
loon Army. Judge parties not only
by what they put In their plat
forms, but also by what they do no
put in, and there is no danger o
being deceived. Prohibitionists o
West Virginia have grand oppor
tunity to achieve success. l hop'
they can improve it.
There is great turmoil among
saloonists here. They would resis
the Dow Law if they could, ant
some will make the effort. Owe
three hundred in this city have re
fused, and the time for paynen
without penalties is out.

EXPRESSING his FEELINGS.

A man whose matrimonial life
had been anything but happy in
consequence Of the quarrelsome
habits Of his wife, who thus con-
trived to keep him constantly in
hot water with the nelghbOrs, was
at last relieved of her company by
death. AS the widOwer's means
were limited, the funeral was plain,
but respectable enough to satisfy
any reasonable relative, The broth
er of the deceased lady, however,
was not a reasonable man and on
the return of the mOurners to the
house he ridiculed the funeral, said
that it was mean, undemonstrativei
and so quiet that all the neighbors
must have considered it niggardly'
eyes, it was rather quiet" re-
sponded the widOwer; "but what
did you expect ? Did you want me
to show my submission TO the de
cree of Providence in removing my
late lamented spouse by closing
the funeral with a display of fire
works ? | did think of a Cheerful
display sof some sort, but aban
doned the idea because I feared
the Deighbors might talk about it
and say that was giving too much
expression to my feelings"

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
CANNING FOR WINTER.

A correspondent in the Country
Gentleman, writing on this timely
subject, says: Whatever Is to be
canned, whether fruit or vegetables,
must be cooked sufficiently 10 be
eaten, and must be boiling at the
time it Is put in the jar. Stand the
jar in an empty pan $50 it can be
easily moved when hot near the
kettle that contains the fruit. Dip
a large towel into hot water and
wind it around the jar. After the
Jar is filed with fruit thrust akniie
to the bottom, and by stirring 1t
around the air bubbles will rise to
the top. Have the jar full, and
and seal quickly.
Stand the jar on the top end in a
cool place. Leave it upside down
until it cools. AS the heat leaves
the jar the cover will loosen, and
must be secured occasionally to
render it perfectly alright. There
is a great difference in jars. 1
have better success with MasOn's
porcelain lined covers than any
others. l purchased a large num-
Der of "Mason's improved" last
year with glass cOyers screwed on
with iron rings. Many of them
were worthless, the ring being too
large to screw them on alright.
The pint jar is we'll adapted to
small families. Fruit that is kept
air tight will soon spoil when OK
posed to the air; and where only a
small amount is used, they will be
found very convenient.
The old rnle for making pre-
serves and jellies is a pound OF SUI
gar for every pound OF fruit or pint
of Juice. 1t is very inconsistent
rule, and 1 have since abandoned
its use. I think the amount OF
sugar used should depend on the
acid in the fruit. Some fruit is so
sour that "pound for pound IS nee
essary, but where there is little acid
in fruit, so much sugar entirely de-
stroys the rich flavor.
Preserves and jellies should be
kept secluded from the air in a dry
place. They should not be placed
so that the jars and glasses will
come in contact with n damp wall,
as they imbibe the moisture, both
in dampness and in taste. To pre-
vent mold lay a branded paper over
the fruit before tying down.

shorter days aud damp weather OF
the late season. The first point IS
to get the corn thoroughly dry be-
fore putting in the crib. And then
the crib should be very narrow and
with open Stats at bottom and sides
and a good wide roof to keep of
driving rains. If all these condl-
tons cannot be scured, the only
way we can be sure OF good seed
corn is to select the best ears and
leave the husks attached to the
butts and tie them up in traces in
an airy barn or room for the win
ter. The few farmers who had
such corn last spring, could get
their own price for it.

Fowl Facts In an Egg Shell.

The breeds of fowls having the
quality of laying and not sitting,
may be classed in four groups-alI
layers of white eggs. Fist,-sin
gle.combed fowls, including the
Black Spanish, Minorcas, Anda'
lusians and Leghorns in variety
These are all distinguished by
large, erect, single combs in the
cocks. and dropping combs IN the
hens. Second.-The rose-combed
towels of the Hamburg group,
rd.-The true "to.knOts"-
White.crested Black Polish, Gold.
en.Spangled Polish, Silver.Span'
gled Polish, White Polish, all OF
which have split or double combs,
or the rudiments of such combs
Fowtk.-The Gallo group of fowls,
some of which, like the CrevecGurs
and Houdans, have crests like the
Polish ; others, like the Gelderland
fowls of Holland, La Fleche and
Bresse of France, show the split OF
bifurcated comb or the rudiments
of it. Among all these the most
useful, simply as egg-producers,
are to be found in the single combed
group. The cock of the White
Faced Black Spanish breed is
characterized by lustrous black
plumage, gay with rainbow tints,
and only a little less glossy in the
hens-red combs or wattles and
white faces. They lay eggs OF the
largest size and pure white, of
course. The Minorcas are like
them, but with red faces, and the
Andalusians are blue. Leghorns,
White and Brown, are desirable,
hardy, prolific, and breed generally
true to feathers and style. The
Leghorns-and there are several
other breeds-are by no means so
high.bred as the Spanish, yet they
are harder, and the eggs, though
smaller, are more abundant, SO
that 80 long as eggs sell by the
dozen, rather than by the pound,
they are very profitable fowls to
keep. Houdans are favorite French
fowls, and combine egg laying and
flesh production in a high degree;
they are, besides, hardy, prolific
and like all the other Gallo fowls,
excellent eating, which can hardly
be said with truth of the fowls OF
any other of the groups of the
nOn.sitters.

For the Girls.

Girls, if your skin be dark, be
satisfied to be in the category of
the nut-brown maidens, if for no
other reason than that "the Loop
ard cannot change its spots" Let
the san kiss the dusky cheek and
add to it the ruddy glow that be-
longs to the dark skin, and which
the rouge-pot cannot supply.
OF coarse, you cant change your
features. But you needn't trouble
yourself much on that score. Some
person has said that if sour Ma
ry' could put some Of her beauty
Of feature into real everyday pref
tiness she would be loved where she
is now admired.
But it is through the complexion
that you have the greatest scope
for identifying. If every poer in
your skin is stuffed full Of "lily

To the girl with the ugly skin |

mile walk every day; you must
wear shoes big enough for perfect
comfort, and, if the skin is thick
and oily, you must eschew fats and
