The Appeal strongly endorses ex-Gov-
ernor Kinkead for reelection. 1t says ::
"Mr. Kinkead has been identified with the
growth and progress of Nevada; man ever
alive to the interests of the State, and his
nomination would give good ballast to the
ticket. The only objection yet made against
him is the fact that he is not the possessor
of wealth. No stronger point could posi-
bly, be made in his favor. It has been shown
that he never prostituted his Office for gain.
and if there is any higher eulogium to be
made we wonld like 70 know it,"

The Origin of Adams Body.

The Rev. DR.. James Woodrow has writ
ten letter to the editor of the Charles
t)n Is. CO. Ne,os, in which he says: '.rhe
statement that there is present attempt
so make the Scriptures teach evolution
is, so tar as [ know. wholly without foun-
dation. If there ever has been such an
attempt within the limits of the Southern
Presbyterian Church I at least have Fever
heard of it. Doubtless SC. E. c. (presum-
ably a Presbyterian minister) and the
overwhelming majority of the members Of
the Augusta General Assemly believe
that the attempt has been made and that
have made it; but nothing could be
further from the truth. 1 have reiterated
over and over again in every form, my be-
lief that the Scriptures &c not teach God Il
mode of creation; that they teach the fact
but not the method; and, therefore. that
neither the hypothesis of Immediate crea-
tion nor the hypothesis Of creation by ev-
olution can contradict the Scriptures,
that every word Of the Sacred Scriptures
is absolutely true, but that to t he Chris
tian believer it is immaterial what scien-
tific views he may hold, provided such
views do not contradict the Sacred Scrip
lures. l cannot comprehend the prevail
ing inability to distinguish these PROPOSE
tions from that which asserts that the
Scriptures teach evolution But the in
ability exists; and I have come almost to
despaic of seeing it removed

Things Worth Knowing.

Corn neal rubbed on the hands dry will
condition.
To keep moths out of drawers, wet a
I piece of cloth in spirits of turpentine and
| put in each drawer.
In making starch, add one teaspoonful
Of kerosene oil to each pint of starch. It
gives fine gloss and never smells on any
| garment.
| To take out scorch caused from using
| too hot iron, lay the garment where the
bright sunshine will fall directly on it. 1t
will take the SCOTCH entirely out.
To make furniture look new, take three
parts sweet oil and one part spirits of tur-
pentine. Mix. Rub the dust from the
furniture and apply the mixture with a
! flannel cloth.
To remove corns Get stick of lunar
caustic.' wet the end in water and apply
to the corns. No cutting or pairing is
necessary, but she caus5ic should be ap-
. applied for two or three nights in success
slon. In a week or SO the skin where the
caustic touched will pull off, and with it
the hard core of the corn.
To emove freckles, scrape horseradish
into cup Of sour milk; let stand twelve
hours; strain and apply two or three times
day.
Another good way is to mix together
one ounce of lemon juice, one-fourth of a
drachm of pulverized borax and half
drachm of sugar. Keep few days, in a
bottle and apply occasionally.
A remedy for ingrowing nails is: Pare
the nail in the middle; then with pin
put as much cotton under the corners as
you can. This will cause the nail to press
out. Never pare the corners of the toe
nails; this will only make the matter
worse. Take sharp pointed instrument
and cut little furrow all along the tep
of the nail lengthwise. AS it fills up
scrape it out again. This will cause the
nail to contract at the top, and so loosen
its hold from the flesh. Persevere until
the difficulty is overcome.

Gov. Fltz Lees Scathing Letter to
rev" S. McChesney.

On decoration day Rev. S. McChesney,
pastor of the. Methodist church at Tope-
ka, Kansas, delivered an address in which
he used the following language: 81 will
not attempt to conceal or describe my
emotions when I learned that on the 4th
of March last year, at the time of the in
auguration ceremonies at Washington, an
OK Confederate General, Fitzhugh Lee,
led that military procession in Confed-
crate uniform, with the gallant Sheridan
relegated to. an inferior position in that
line." The address attracted consider
able attention at the time, and met Gen.
Lees eyes, for the Secretary of the DEM
ocratic State Committee of Kansas, has
received the following letter from him
COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA,
GOVERNORS OFFICE,
RICHMOND, VA, June 10.
''The statements of Mr.. McChesney a O
false, viz, that an ex-Ceafeder.sss ~ 6
eral led The II in the procession
Confederate uniform, as we'll as his state
ment that Lieut.-Gen. Sheridan, In blue,
was placed in an inferior position, and
that the military was martialed by man
in the color of ashes. Just after reading
his absurd sentences comparing the color
of gray TO ashes, etc., read in another
paper of the action of some Federal
soldiers in Watertown, N. Y, who had
received pensions under the laws of the
United States, but who, not requiring
them, had sent them to some Confederate
soldiers residing in this State, because
they thought their necessities greater.
Which is doing the most good for the
promotion of restored Union of co equal
atts-the narrow minded, blood-thirsty
pres cher, who has probably never smelled
sunpowder. or the ex- Union soldier who
stopped f5hting when the war was over
| car oa:y pity the man who remains bel
ieereut so long, and express the hope that
after death his ashes may be at peace.
Very respectfully yours,
s'FITZHUGH LEE.''

cattle's shin bones are shipped to England
for the making of knife handles, where
they bring $40 per ton. The thigh bones
are the most valuable, being worth $50
per ton for cutting into toothbrush
handles. The fore-leg bones are worth
$50 per top, and are made into collar but

Sleeps legs are the staple parasol handles.
The water in which the bones are boiled
is reduced to glue, and the dust which
comes from saving the bones is fed to
