WINTER DECORATIONS.

Those who live in the country have a
large amount of material, most appro-
pirate for winter decoration, ready to
their hands and to be had for the gath
erlng. With just little foresight, and
slight exercise of taste and skill, almost
any one can render their winter rooms
beautiful and attractive both to inmates
and visitors, and rob the cold dark DAYS
OF winter of half their cheerlessness and
gloom. A few hours now spent in pleas
art labor will enable us to arrange our
floral treasures, gathered in many pleas
ant rambles in the woods and fields dur
ing the past summer and carefully pre-
served, into many beautiful forms for
home adornment. First of all in our list
OF treasures are the brightly-tinted au-
tumn leaves-beech, oak, sumach, and
mapIe-each with its own peculiar beau
ty OF form or color. Nicely pressed and
vanished they may be used in forming
an almost countless number of pretty de-
vices, Harps. anchors, crosses, and
garlandS may be cut from pasteboard

the "Ugly Girl Papers are upon the
subject of softening and identifying the
skin, also way to whiten the hands, in
addition to the receipts given last week
upon the SUBJECT. One OF our friends
told us last week, that since the cook had
taken her departmental this is the
case in many households now, since cot
ton picking has begun-she "felt like
sitting in the parlor with her hands be-
hind her. The bran remedy given
below, although disagreeable, IS always
effective.
"The bran bath, recommended before,
is taken with apeck of common bran,
such as is used to stuff pincushions,
stirred into tub of warm water. The
rubbing Of the scaly particles of the
bran cleanses the skin, while the gluten
in it softens and strengthens the tissues.
Oatmeal is even better, as it contains
small amount of oil that is good for the
skin. For susceptible persons, the tepid
bran bath is better than cold show
er-bath. The friction of the loose bran
calls the circulation to the surface. In
France the branis tied in bag for the
bath, but this gives only the benefit of
the gluten, not that of the irritation.
The frequency ofthe bath should be
determined, after it has been taken for
week or two, by feeling. Take the
re treshment as often as the system de-
slreS it. The harm is done not so much
by bathing often as by staying in the wa
ter long at time. A hot soap-suds
bath once week is beneficial to per-
sons with moist and oily skins. Bay
rum and camphor may be used to ad-
vantage by such persons each time after
washing the face. The hot suds bath
should be taken thrice week by those
who wish to remove moth patches.
One OF the best ways to make hands
soft and white is to wear at night large
mlttens OF cloth filled with wet bran or
oatmeal, and tied closely at the wrist
"A lady who had the finest, softest hands
IN the county confessed that she had a
great deal of housework to do, but kept
them white by wearing bran mittens

of ex-Congressman Casey Young, who
is the Secretary of the PanElectric
Company, has proved the most impor-
tant. Mr.. Young asserts that the Bell
Company CONTROLS the newspaper
press, Congress and everything else.
He testified that it was he who sug-
gested the name Pan-Electric. The
certificate of incorporation of the Ten
nessee Company was signed by j.
Harris Rogers, Isham 6. Harris, Au-
gustus Garland and Robt. F. Looney,
the capital being s500,000. The wit
ness also stated that the new company
at first contemplated possible CON
nection with the exchanges Of the Bell
company. In reply to the assertion
that he had said that Garland had
consented to bring suit against the
Bell Company, Mr.. Young said, "On
the 24th of. May, 1884, DR.. Rogers
had written letter to the witness at
Memphis, in which he said he had
seen a decision of Judge Wallace in
the Cunning case, in which it was
held that suit could be brought by
the Attorney-General to annull a
patent.
The doctor seemed to be greatly
"enthused over it and said, "Now is
our time, we must make Garland file
a bill at once and annul the Bell pat
ents," and he wanted witness to write
to Garland at once. Immediately up
on receipt of this letter witness had re-
piled that Garland could not file the
bill and he { Mr.. Young) could not
ask him to do it. In conclusion Mr..
Young said " | am positive that Gar
land had agreed to bring suit to annul
the Bell patents" /"
Casey Young is resident of Mem
phis, Tenn, and is lawyer by profes-
sion. He was elected as a Represents
tive to the Forty fourth, fifth aud sixth
and was nominated for the Forty-sev-
enth Congress but failed of reelection
being defeated by William r. Moore
Republican. Mr.. Young, however
was returned to the Forty eight Con-
gress. In politics he is Democrat.

Yet there is some significance in the
organization of a North Carolina
Democratic Association. F. b. Wor-
mack is President; J. M. Leach, Vice
President J. D. Tomlinkson, Secre-

as his axe may be, Mister O'Hara

the Democrats of North Carolina.
MR.. REID GOING HOME
is one of the busiest men we have seen.
He has dropped gracefully into his
chair, but his hands are busy. One
ransacks his pockets for his desk-key /;
the other rests nervously on bundle
of documents. Extra room has been
made for the latter-a shelf between
his and the next desk. Mr.. Reid
opens the desk, and straps a number
of inspiring envelopes together,
they are then laid aside. Next comes
the days letters, six inches high. He
selects two or three more awe-inspir-
ing articles and tucks them between
the awe-inspiring envelopes. Down
goes the desk lid, and Mr.. Reid starts
to shoulder his load. But he has for
gotten something, for up goes the
desk lid again. A stray letter, mem
orandum, and THE WESTERN SENTI-
MEL are found, and thrust into his
breast pockets. He locks the desk,
this time; the awe-inspiring envelopes
go under one arm the other arm
loaded with letters Mr.. Reid stands
up, his pockets and his arms chockful,
to go home. SHADOW.
