 In Kansas both Senators are dependent on their salaries
 But the Pacific coasts
 Yes; the Senators from California, Ore gon, Nevada, and, by stretch of geogra- phy, might include Colorado, are known to be very wealthy. Senators Stanford, Fair and Hearst have more money than all the members of the Senate and House put to- gether l suppose. Senator Jones has got rich again from his Alaska mines
 But the solid South?
 True, it is solid in its poverty Senator Coiqnitt of Georgia is rich man suppose. Senator Camden of West Virginia certainly is worth three or four million dollars, and Senator Malone of Virginia has probably one million dollars to bless him when he leaves the chamber. Senator Brown of Flor ida has probably half as much, but that is the end of the story. The southern Sena- tors poor. Possibly five out of the thir- ty have an income as great or greater than their salaries. There is little use in naming them
 Now that I think of it, am satisfied that there are as many rich men in the House as in the Senate. They will be harder to find, but they are there

 Out of eight hundred and forty-seven duels fought in France since 1870 only one resulted in death, and only eight in serious injury. And yet "honor" has been much sustained by these ridiculous encounters.

 The Mormon agents at Washington are boasting that they have had assurances from very high quarters that neither the federal courts nor the government officers will be as active hereafter as heretofore in prosecut- ing polygamy cases. If this is true they are very unwise in saying so, and they are equally unwise if it is not.
 Some Englishmen could give Yankees 'pointsn in advertising. A leading English confectioner ordered to put up 10, 900 tin boxes of candy, dramatically sealed, with an advertisement oe cheap watch in each box, and in some Of the boxes, in addition thereto, coupon entitling the finder to one of the watches. On the occasion of the OK ford and Cambridge boat race, the 10000 water-tight boxes were thrown into the river, to be dived and grappled and raked for by anybody who thought it worth while to take so much trouble to get the sweets, and possi- bly, a watch. No little excitement and talk was caused, and the object of the enterpris- ing watch vender-the getting of much ad- vertising-was fully attained.
 MT. Robert c. Winthrop, of Massachusetts, who was Speaker of the House of Represen- tatives in 1S47-49, made a visit to Washing ton few days ago. In reviewing the changes that have taken place since he presided over the House he had much to say about the enormous increase in the number of bills. "In my time" he said, Give hundred introduced in session was considered enormous figure, but understand that the aggregate now for six months of the present session foots up nearly 5000 At ,this ratio of increase the matter must come to such pass that the whole time of Congress will be consumed in business of purely local interest, while the paramount interests of the whole country must suffer for want of mature consideration. The increase of members and of business threatens in very few years to seriously embarrass the work of Congress"

A GOOD INVESTMENT,

Abbeville. Is. CO. Medium, Jan. 2Sth, 1885.
j. L. Simpson & Co., have secured
the agency for the Fraley Quilting
Attachment in Abbeville Co. The
Quilting attachment is usually called
quilting frame but it is simply an
arrangement for holding the goods to
be quilted in such manner that the
ordinary family sewing machine can
do the work instead of quilting by
hand. The work accomplished with
this arrangement is more accurate
and more endurable than hand work,
and it only takes about two hours to
make a quilt. The patentee has been
here sufficiently long for our citizens
to understand that the Fraley Quilt
ing Frame is thoroughly practical
invention and quite a number of per-
sons have purchased a frame for their
own use. Mr.. Simpson was out on
other business on Monday and re-
ceived orders for four frames. Capt.
Jno. E. Brownlee has one and he says
his family are delighted with it. So
at last, the tedious business of quilt
making is rendered so easy that it is
only pleasant pastime.
We have one of the attachments
and commend it as invaluable for
family use. 1t is simple, anybody
can work it, and it will last a life
time. There is no danger of its get
ting out of order if ordinary care is
taken. Buy one and you will never
regret it.

The Manufacturers Record, of
Baltimore, Nd, the foremost trade

upon its ninth volume. About three
years ago it came into the hands of
its present owners, and at that time
only contained sixteen pages. Itnow

and they still talk of coming up
higher. 1t is the most earnest and
persistent exponent of the South's in

prosperity of the section it represents.

Southern Lumberman: During the
late cold spell great number of peo-
pie were frost bitten. Fingers and
toes that have been only slightly
frozen often give great pain from
burning, itching and pricking sensa-
tions. A simple and sure remedy is
given for such frost bites by DR.. Lapa-
tin. He advises that the frozen parts
be painted at first once and then twice
a day with mixture of dilute nitric
acid and peppermint water in equal
proportions. After this application
has been made for three or four days
the skin becomes darkened and the
epidermis is shed, healthy skin ap-
pearing under it. The cure is effected
in from ten to fourteen days. The
author has found this plan very effec-
tual among soldiers, who were un-
able to wear their boots in cOnse-
quence of having had frozen feet.
They were in this way soon rendered
capable of returning to duty.

of five parallel rods and two end
beams-two pieces of track and a few
minor pieces, but their mechanical
combination is such that there does
not seem to be the slightest room for
an improvement. The frame has
three parallel rods upon which the
goods or quilt are wound, each rod
operated with rachel and pawl. BY
using three rods, the cotton is laid in
as needed-and is consequently sewed
into the quilt just as it is laid, there
being no possible chance to disturb it
by the operation of the attachment.
We have seen the attachment at
work and have seen samples of work
done with it and will say that we are
ready to endorse it when quilt is
wanted and feel satisfied that any
lady need not be without a quilt more
than three hours if she will get the
Fraley Quilting Frame and 60 to
work.

Tribune and Sun: Each Congress-
man gets $500 packages of garden
seed, second hand, and 500 packages
of flower seed, and yet they are not
happy, because the surplus of the
treasury cannot be used to buy seeds
enough to send every man a mail bag
full. Yet there are only few who
get them. The government pays for
them and they cost the Congressman
the great labor of having them di-
rected to their constituents by govern
ment clerks. They are mailed free
to the people whose money is used in
buying them9 and in nine cases out Of
ten they are worthless.

Shelby IN. CO. Aurora, Dec. 10th, 1885.
r. M. Jolley, the agent for the Fra
ley Quilting Frame for Cleveland
county informs us that he is selling
the frames right along from three to
six per day, and that every person
who buys one would not part with it
for double the money, if another
could not be procured. This certain
ly proves the Fraley Quilting Frame
perfect success and we hope our
friend Jolley may make fortune out
of it.

A Useful Invention.

Mr.. R. N. Miller, State agent, in
company with Mr.. Fraley, the inven-
tor, is now exhibiting Fraley's Quilt
ing Frame at the store of Potter Bros,
in this place, where he requests all
the ladies to call and examine it. It
is durable, easily operated, and as
practical as any other sewing machine
attachment. The Scientific Ameri-
can says it is the only practical inven-
ton of the kind ever patented. 1t is
certainly superior to any frame we
have ever seen, and its low price puts
it in reach of every person owning a
sewing machine. Any woman or
girl who can run sewing machine
can make quilt on this frame in
from two to three hours with no more
eXertion than the ordinary run of
work on the machine will require.
No matter how many other patent
quilting frames you may have exam
ined in the past, don't fail to 60 and
see this one, and you will be con-
vinced of its superiority. We give
below a few press notices of the in
vention:
