Rev. E. C.. Oggel.

A letter from Rev E. c. Oggel, late
pastor of the Bethel Union Church here,
recounts incidents of a few days stay at
st. Johns, Michigan. He was the guest
of Mr.. and Mrs. Albert J. Baldwin, who
visited their relatives on these Islands
two years ago. He also met and spent a
delightful hour with Rev. Samuel SEES
sions, uncle of Mrs. s. E. Bishop of this
town, who is in his 84th year and lives
with his daughter, Mrs Porter K Perrin,
wife of a prominent lawyer of st. Johns.
Mr.. Oggel tells of other nice people he
met, including a companion of his boy
hood now for eleven years principal of
the high school, and says: " With due
respect to the fruit of your sunny isles
guavas, ohias, etc.-give me Michigan
plums, peaches and big apples" During
his visit he lectured on the Hawaiian
Islands, as we'll as performed multitud-
inous list OF pastoral functions.

The most amusing feature of the whole
campaign has been the candidacy of Mr.
Depew, who, when the balloting once be-
gan, proved to be very " dark horse"
indeed. The most unexpected thing
which the session in Chicago has devel-
oped is the fact that Mr.. Blaine's friends
finally took him at his word, and did not
nominate him, thus condemning the
plumed knight to second season of poll
teal deafness from which he need not be
expected ever to emerge. The kilograms
from Europe throw fresh light on Mr..
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1888-07-10

Blaine's foreign correspondence, for they
show that his own wife did not know
that he would have refused the nomina-
ton, if it had been offered. Probably no
one knows, to this day, and Mr.. Blaine is
clearly entitled to the credit of being
smart" enough to mystify the whole
world so completely that they have never
got ont of the mist.

Repdrtee.

There is no weapon in the armory Of
wit more effective than repartee, and the
French, from which the word is borrow
ed, excel in the use of the missile. An
anecdote in point occurs to us. Talley-
rand had a crooked leg. Madame de
Stael squinted. The two hated each 9TH
er cordially, and meeting one day in an
ante-room of the Palace Of Versailles, the
following passage at arms took place be-
tween them:
Monsieur" said the lady in a tone of
mock sympathy, chow is your poor leg
this morning? ?"
"Crooked-as you see" was the quiet
reply.
That was what might be termed pal
pable hit. Ii took the authoress Of Go
rhine" completely abacl, and before she
could form a rejoinder Talleyrand had
hobbled out of earshot.

A Mean Man.

The meanest man on record jumped
aboard 4 Woodward avenue car the other
afternoon. Every seat was occupied and
what did that man do b,h look out of a
window and whisper something about
dog-fght. When Brown had looked in
vain for the dog-fght, he also looked in
vain for his seat. 1t was completely hid
den by that mean man, who was so deep
ly interested in his paper as to be wholly
obliyious of everything else. But Brown
had his revenge. A lady soon entered,
and before any one could offer her seat
he punched up the mean man and said
"Will YOU please give this lady seat,
sir?'
Then they hung on the straps and
glowered at each other until their brows
ached.

WEST VIRGINIA. THURSDAY JUNE

over the fence and asked him to become
dictator in place of Spurious Melius
Putting on his toga and buckling an
old hame strap around his lungs, he said
Gentlemen, if you wait till | go to the
house and get some vaseline on my limbs
1 will do your debating for you as low as
you have ever had it done" He then
left his team standing in the furrow while
he served his country in an official ca
pacity for little over twenty-nine years,
after which he went back and resumed
his farming.
Though $500 years have passed away
and historians have been busy with that
epoch ever since, no one has yet discover
ed the methods by which Cincinnatus or
ganized and executed this, the most sue
cessful Peoples Movement" Of which
we are informed
believe that during this campaign
we should lay aside politics as far as pos
sible and unite on an unknown, homely,
but sparkling man. Let us lay aside all
race preiudices and old party feeling and
elect a magnetic chump who does not look
so very well, but who feels first rate.
Towards the middle of June l shall go
away to an obscure place where | cannot
be reached. My mail will be forwarded
to me by gentleman who knows how
I feel in relation to the wants and needs
of the country.
To those who have prospered during
the past twenty years let me say they
owe it to the perpeluation Of the Princi-
pies and institutions toward the establish
ment of which l have given the best en-
ergies of my life To those who have
been unfortunate let me say frankly that
they owe it to themselves.
In closing, let me urge one and all to
renewed effort. The prospects for a
speedy and unqualified victory at the polls
were never more roseate. Let US select
a man upon whom we can all unite, a
man who has no venom in him, a man
who has successfully defed and trampled
on the infamous Interstate Commerce
act, a man who though in the full flush
and pride and bloom and fluff Of liie's
meridian, still disdains to present his
name to the convention. BILL NYE.

The Muototon and the Ne,o Plug Hat.

Prof Irvink, who monkeys with cards
and the other bric-a-brac that goes to
make up the outfit of the professional
sleight-of-hand performer, gave an exhi-
bition at hall in Frankfort the other
night. The professor is all there with
his tricks, but somewhat shy on his ora
tory if he gets out of the beaten paths
of his hanky panky. This time he aeci-
dentally strayed and got badly mixed up
in byway.
Smiling like a crack in rocky noun
tain range the professor ambled down
from the stage and borrowed a silk hat
from fat man in the front row. 1t was
brand new eight-dollar hat, and the
professor looked at it affectionately as he
made his way back to the stage, which
was reached by a short step-ladder placed
there for the occasion. The professor
hadn't been drinking, but he was nervous.
The ladder slipped from under him and
he tobogganed on the hat several feet up
the stage. As he picked himself up and
looked at the crushed stoyepipe in blank
despair The audience roared. No one
laughed so heartily as the fat man who
owned the wreck. Irvink looked at the
hat, the spectators and the wings.
Ladies and gentlemen" he foally
stammered, "this was an accident. If the
gentleman who owns the hat will wait
until tomorrow will try to buy him a
new one out Of the box receipts. Really
I didn't mean to fall. /"
His voice was drowned in laughter and
applause.
"Isn't he an excellent actor" exclaim
ed the fat man between conyulsions
to his neighbor. Never saw anything
to beat it"
The Professor turned his scared fac
about the stage. Escape was impossible
The more he tried to tell his auditors thai
the crushed tile was not trick, but {
good, wide, and all-wool reality, the mor'
, his auditors didn't believe him. lie wenr

misanthrope to me,
" Five minutes in your lie, sir, when from
trouble you were free,
Five minutes of true happiness, of pleasure I'M

FARM AND FIRESlDE.

Farmers Cake: Take one cup Oh
sugar, one cup of sour cream, two smali
cups of flour, one egg and one teaspoon
of soda dissolved in warm water ana
stirred in last very briskly. Flavor
with nutmeg.
Oatmeal Cookies: One cup Oh
sugar, two eggs, one cup OF flour, one
cup of cold boiled oatmeal, one tea
spoon of soda, two teaspoons OF cream
tartar, one tablespoon of butter; roll
thin aud bake in quick oven.
Meat Salad: Chop fine one or two
pounds of corned beef, then take two
thirds of cup of vinegar, one table
spoonful of sugar and one egg. Beat
all together and pour into a frying-pan
and let boil; then pour into a dish to
mold. Serve in slices when cold.
Pruning when dormant tends to
impart vigor; but if done when grow
ing or in leaf it checks growth, and
therefore feeble tree should never be
pruned after growth commences in the
spring. But healthy, strong growers
may be lightly pruned at either season.
Chocolate Meringue: Boil one pint
of rich milk, add half teacup of butter,
one teacup of sugar and three ounces OF
grated chocolate; let it boil. and when
cool add the whites of four eggs; pour
this in pudding, dish lined with slices
of sponge cake and bake; cover with
meringue and let it brown. Eat with
lemon sauce.
Sheep should be assorted irto a
sufficient number of focks to enable the
keeping of each grade separate-tiat is,
the lambs, the old and weak sheep, the
breeding ewes and the big wethers
should be kept in separate flocks. 1hls
would give each grade an equd chance,
and the sheep would do better in con-
sequence.
Lemon Tarts: Line pans with
paste. Squeeze the juice from four
lemons, CRATE the rind of TWO; add the
yelks of six eggs and the whites of two;
add pound of granulated sugar; place
in q small pan or a kettle of boiling
water; stir until n thick paste IS formed.
Fill the shells and bakein a quick oven.
Cover with meringue and set IN the
stove three minutes.
Farmers must realize that they can
not expect to reap rich harvest unless
the crop is supplied with feeding ma
terial from the soil in which the seed is
planted. How each ones particular
soil is to be fed in the best and most
economical manneris question for in
dividual determination. Farm ma
nures are always reliable and should
be the main dependence, supplementary
with special fertilizers.
DO not put even the knife blades
into boiling water, as the heat OF the
metal may cause the shank to expand
and crack the handle. Set the knife
blades down in little pitcher with
warm water until you are ready to
wash and dry them. Merely wipe the
handles with damp cloth. After dry
ing the blades rub on little powdered
rotten stone, moistened to paste with
few drops of water, and polish with
a clean, soft cloth. In this way they
will not want cleaning every day on a
board or in machine, both of which
processes wear the blades very much,
