SAVE YOUR SCRAPS OF LINEN
Never throw away scrap OF linen.
Let this be craven upon the heart Of
every woman. Every scrap OF linen
that has served its purpose should be
carefully washed and ironed and laid
away in a proper receptacle for home or
hospital ase. Old handkerchiefs, table
napkins, tabIecloths, sheets, towels and
pillow cases ssould be placed in their
respective places, so that when wanted
they may be easily found. Despise no
piece of linen however small. The
linen part of frayed cuffs or collars may
be detached and put away for future
need. The hens Of tablecloths, sheets
and pillow cases should be taken off be-
fore they are ironed. Old towels that
are so often thrown away as OF no value
are also of use in cases of illness. What
a satisfaction to the hOusekeeper 1t Is
when an appeal is made for old linen
by the hospital to know that she has

As rule, cattle and sheep relish
their feed best as near the natural
state as they can get it; grass fresh and
green, hay as nearly as possible to the
condition 1t is in the field, and fodder
bright and dry. without either chopping
or cooking. When feed has once been
brought within the reach OF the animal
there IS no appliance that SO thoroughly
fits il for the animals use as the stomach
itself; hence when corn has been
shelled for sheep or crushed for cattle,
further preparation of this food only
makes it less palatable.

Glanced to die one of the members of

funeral. On the day appointed the

in groups discussing either the depart
ed or the condition of the crops, while
the neighbors in charge hustled from
one room to another making the last
arrangements. The hour for the funer-
al arrived and passed, and yet the SER
vices did not begin. Still more time
passed, and the manager of affairs was
seen to be hurrying from room to room,
looking anxiously about as if in search
of something. AS time passed, the au-
dience began to show signs of impa
thence, and also of curiosity as the per-
picked face of the man in charge ap-
peared again before them. There was
evidently Glitch" in the proceedings
somewhere, and an explanation was
necessary. Mounting chair. the i'm

Better Bide a Wee.

There is one thing very certain.
The republican party is in no condI-
ton to commence wrangle over pres
piOns of one particular and lOng-stand-
ing candidate for president who amuse
themselves by pounding journalistic
gOngs and insisting that their man Is
sure to be nominated, and the only
question is whether he can be per-
suaded to accept the nomination, had
better bide their time. 1t would be
much wiser to leave the selection of
the next republican candidate for pres
dent to the republican national con-
vention, which will not be held for
two years. Since it has been demon
strated that nomination is not equiv
alent to an election. the gong and tin
horn style of selecting candidate is
not going to satisfy the great majority
of republicans who are controlled by
their desire to see the party succeed,
and who are not influenced by animal
magnetism. The fool friends of the
last republican candidate by their
bungling mismanagement, succeeded
i'm defeating candidate said to be
when nominated, the strongest and
most popular man in the nation. That
defeat clearly demonstrated one thing
"a purely factiOnal candidate, how
ever dashing, however magnetic, how
ever cunning, is not so strong can
didate as the level-headed man who
prefers to rely on united party, a
man whose desire to serve the entire
party is greater than his desire to pun
ish political rivals. The next national
convention will most likely partake
much less of the Buffalo Bill style of
exhibition than characterized the last.
1t is much more likely to be controlled
and guided by the cool and deliberate
Judgment of men who will be anxious
to secure a candidate who Can carry
states enough to give him a majority
in the electoral college. There will be
none of the swashbuckling method of
the last convention, which asserted
itself in the Oft-repeated expression :
"D-n New York ; our man can win
without New York" If congress does
its duty, by passing proper Legislation,
the political boOdlers, who have open
ly boosted at the banquet table that
they purchased delegates in the last
convention, will be estOpped from a
repetition of their shameless cOrrup-
ton in the next convention. What
the republican party wants is cam
paign with as little of the affidavit
Burchard Jay G ould dinner trimmings
and reliance on democratic votes as
possible. A man who can get the
united republican vote is the man the
party wants. A man who can do this
can defeat any candidate the demo-
Gratis may nominate. There are other
kinds of men, and they will not be in
demand when the convention meets.
At all events, it is rather early for the
political idiots to commence reading
out of the party people who do not
agree with them as to candidates. The
political idiots, journalistic and other
wise, chad better bide Vice."

Horrible Coasting Accident.

A coasting accident, fatal in its re-
suits, occurred at North Pownal,
Thursday night. At the hour of the
accident two hills running north and
south, and meeting in ravine back of
the Troy and Boston depot, were COW
cred with children riding on hobs and
sleds. Eddie Stillman, 10 years of age,
started from the top of one hill, and a
moment later a pair of hobs left the
summit of the opposite incline. At
the foot of the hills the two came to-
gether with frightful force. The Still
man boy was instantly killed. His
body was horribly mutilated by the
forwarded bob. On the pair of hobs
were four boys. They were thrown
off by the collision, and one of them, a
lad IL years old, named Champney,
sustained broken leg. The boy who
was sitting just behind Champney, 10
years of age, whose name is Stone,
was badly and it is feared fatally, hurt.
Three of his ribs are fractured and his
body around the shoulders is crushed.
The remaining two were bruised but
not seriously. Young Stillman's fla
Their was killed five years ago by being
thrown from a wagon at North Pow
