high taxation in one breath and advocate
increased taxation in the next breath.
We do so love to support Judge Carey

How do clowns make up their faces?
l will tell you. They take oxide-chIoride
of bismuth, which they mix with grease,
rub upon their hands until the compost
ton is thorough. when it is put upon the
face like the burned cork of the negro
minstrel. After that, Common chalk,
carefully dried, is laid on a second coat.
The chalk adheres to the greasy skin, and
the face is oon very thoroughly whitened.

The Tooth Brush for children.

In many homes a tooth brush would
be a curiosity, and yet every child should
be provided with one and made to use it.
This is a duty which cannot be too
strongly insisted upon. Unless the teeth
are kept clean they will decay, and with
out good teeth perfect health is absolutely
impossible.-Boston Herald.

The Sun is surprised that it is the only

the reflection that it does so like to work

Mr.. BLAINE, while emphatically
denying the statement made concern
ING his connection with bOunties and
provost marshalships, and affirm
ing that there is no more truth in
them than lhere would be in the
charge that he had made money by
robbing the mails or by piracy in the
high seas, says:
Nothing could induce me to enter
into u controversy over Mr.. COnkllng' ;
grave. During our joint services in
cOngress-sOme sixteen years in all
we had some eXasperatlng cOmtro-
versies, but | never spoke or wrote "a
word concerning him, except public
ly; and now that he is dead, my lips
are sealed against every form or criti-
cism or unkind expression, no matter
what may be the imprudence or the
injustice of any of his surviving
friends"
The scandal committee that secured
all Maine four years ago to find cam
paign thunder against Blaine, found
nothing in the report which was
made the occasion OF enquiry by two
committees and one commission dur
ing the last year of war, and of the
result of these inquiries, as Mr..
Blaine says, there was mot word
of evidence, suggestion or hint in
any one of the three reports, to show
that he had any more connection in
the matter than had Mr.. COnkling
himself, or his unwise friend, who
publishes the letter and attri butes it
to the dead statesman" The results
of that investigation are upon record.
If there was anything derogatory to
Mr.. Blaine in that report, it would
have been unearthed four years ago.
The democracy must be hard up, and
very closely cornered to resort to such
a dodge.

According to Prof. Sargent, the
strongest wood in the United States
is that of the nutmeg hickory of the
Arkansas region, and the weakest is
the West Indian birch. The most
elastic is the tamarack, the white or
shellbarck hickory standing far be-
low it. The least elastic and the
lowest in specific gravity, is the wood
of the Ficus aurea. The highest
specific gravity, upon which in gem

Illustrative of the final end of those

chump who deserted the town of his
birth to boom up town far away,
who'd never invest in the city's own

who groaned of the evils that held

HoNoRs are easy in New York be-
tween Hill and Cleveland. Hill
thinks Cleveland a little weak, but
hopes to pull him through. Cleveland
thinks Hill weak but imagines that
his own presidential popularity will
land Hill in the governors chair. The
World sides with Hill, the Times
banks on Cleveland, and the Sun
shines for both, with some ominous
clouds obscuring the sky in the vicini-
ty of the president ial orb. Local poll
tics seem anything but settled in the
democratic mind. Tammany hall will
put a candidate for mayor in the field,
and the county democracy will nomi-
nate Hewitt for second term. The
World pretends to see an additional
strength to the national ticket in this
split over municipal affairs. If it suits
the World as revolving round McCul-
Tough to hold this view, the great big
world of republican idea and action
will find no fault Herewith. No two
democratic journals of New York take
the same view of the political situa-
ton. The mugwump press poses for
Cleveland, but there is marked diff
ference in the manner of its support
as con trasted with four years ago.
They would have bolted Cleveland
long ago, but don't take kindly to
cold crow.

a CAREFUL review of the political
situation shows thar Missouri is much
more likely to 60 republican in the
ensuing election than Illinois to 90
democratic. All talk OF either is
mere campaign bosh. There may be
state and local issues in both states
that will change some votes, and 50
effect local candidates, but the gen
eral result is sure. The republican
state and national ticket will carry
everything before it in Illinois, and
the democracy are not worrying
about Missouri. They don't have to.

on my chest close around my throat. In
few hours the cough ceased, the pain gradu-

the next day was almost well. wore the
plasters eight days afterwards, and have
never had any trouble since.
