4 ford to Young Girls.

Perhaps you are tired OF advice,
which is generally very cheap; but I
will give you tiny leaf from my expe-
rience. and let you draw your own con-
clusions. When my mother died, leav-
ing me at the age of Is to care for my
fathers house, and younger brother
and sister, L could do almost anything
better than keep house, which I could
not do at all. could harness team
of half-broken colts, and could ride or
drive them. I could milk and feed cat.
tie, and could do everything that = wo-
man q was then five feet six inches,
and had attained my full growth) could
do on farm, and I had taught a district
school for the past nine months; but 1
had never made pie, or, what is more
important, loaf of bread. So bun
gled along help or without. If
/ had the former was cheated and i'm.
posed upon, as, seeing my incompe-
tence, the servants felt perfect right
to do. I wasted materials, laid the
foundation for dyspepsia in the various
members of the family, and I verify be-
lieve drove my father into second mar
riage that proved most unhappy one
for all the parties concerned. The
first years Of my married life were a
repetition of the miserable failures of
these days, until I fell into the hands
of such "Good Samaritans" as Miss
Corson and Marian Harland, and awoke
to the necessity of atoning for my lack
of early training in the matter of look
ing we'll to the ways of my household.
Now, do not want to reach, but it is
to the young girls that we must look
for the cooks of the future, which is
equivalent to saying for the health of
the next generation. Do not wait to
learn housekeeping until you have as
sumed the cares and responsibilities of
wives and mothers
Do not believe that your husbands
amiability will outlast the honeymoon
if you give him muddy coffee, heavy
bread, and under or overdone meats.
Don't, believe that love Gin the mascu-
line gender at least) is SO blind as to
mistake bad dinner for a good one.
The wives who were practical cooks in
the past generation too often failed to
teach their skill to their daughters.
Cooking-schools are step in the right
direction, but the danger is that "the
girl of the period" will study cooking
as thoroughly as she does music, or
some other accomplishment, and while
she may be able to place before her
friends a Uol-aal-ve,at, or chocolate
soufhe, as an evidence of her culinary
skill, may be unable to make loaf of
bread or cook single vegetable prop.

Congressman Mills is making as
many as three speeches a day out
West, and Republican prospects
are prosperng as a consequence.
President Cleveland wrote as
follows in his first letter of accep-
lance, dated August IS, 1884;
"When we consider the patrO-
mage of this great office, the allure
ments Of power, the temptation to
retain public place once gained,
and, more than all, the availability
a party finds in an incumbent whom
a horde of ofliceholders, with a zeal
born Of benefits received and fOs-
tered by the hope of favOrs yet to
come, stand ready to aid with mon
ey and trained political service, we
recognize in the eligibility Of the
president for re election a most
serious danger to that calm, delib-
ate aud intelligent action which
must characterize government by
the people,
And yet he contributes $4,000
toward a hoped.for consummation
that he seriously, calmly and de-
liberately deprecates.

RUIN AND POVERTY.

THAT Is WHAT THE PASSAGE OF
THE MILLS BILL WOULD MEAN.
The Democratic party comes be-
fore the people with platform and
tarlif.reform bill, which, if carried
out. Will reduce all values all over
the country at least One-third and
the wOrkingman or tradesman who
owns a house or other property
valued at say S9OO-and on which
he has made a payment of 5000
will find that after the introduction
of tariff reform, sO.called, bis house
will not be worth more than the
face value OF his debt or mortgage,
namely, 5000, and the $500 which
he saved from his earnings of years
to buy a homestead are lost forever,
thanks to the cheapening effects OF
tariff reform. The manufacturer
who runs a mill, stocked say fer
instance with 100000 worth Of
wool and WOODEN goods, will learn
that after the passage OF the Mills
tariff reform bill he has lost Just
One.third OF what he considered
his assets, perhaps the fruits OF a
liietIme's hard and exciting labor
and sacrifices perhaps he will be a
bankrupt. At any rate banks and
financial institutions all over the
country will be exceedingly careful
in extending credit to business
men, on account OF the terrific
shrinkage in values which must
result if the bill is passed. These
are cold, naked, indisputable facts.
The suit of clothes which you wear
tonight, and for which you have
paid your tailor So, will then be
worth only so, and you will not
pay your American tailor $40 for
a suit made III America il you can
buy suit made in Europe, fully as
good, for 80. Consequently the
stock of goods which your tailor
has on hand will be worth only the
price that European made goods
can be bought for and no more
Now, If you want 10 reduce the
wages of our principal consumer,
the woIkingman, to the starvation
level of Europe, vote the Demo
cratic ticket. lfyou desire to see
the misery Of poverty in all its
nakedness in your own midst, vote

1T IS TRUE.

Our Democratic friends are in a
middle. The President and the
National Executive Committee are
not getting along well together.
The President is a free trader and
part of his committee are for pro
lection and 1t is Just as easy for
oil and water to mix as for these
two elements to work in harmony.
We repeat. the Democratic party IS
in a middle. Hundreds and thou
sands of their most prominent men
are deserving and declaring against
Democratic tree trade principles
and for Harrison and Morton. The
daily papers are full Of instances,
and if we were to undertake to
publish a full list it would require
every line of the HERALD and
then some. Even in our own sec
ton there is no enthusiasm in the
Democratic party. They simply
deny beng free traders in one
breath and in the next declare
the Mills bill to be the only saliva
ton of the people. The Republi-
cans of Virginia are united and
will carry the State by good ma
iority this fall.
