Take Caro- Of Your C oihes.

Some peoples clothes last a great
deal longer than others, simply because
they take care Of them when they are
not in wear. A shawl that is folded
Sin the creases' every time it is taken
of will look well for five years, when
the same shawl will be scarcely present
able at the end of one year if thrown
carclessly anywhere on a chair Or sofa.
Kid gloves when taken from the
hands are generally slightly moist,
especially if the htnds perspire in the
least. If they are carelessly rolled to-
gether they very soon lose their glossi-
ness and shape, but if each fiager is
pulled out straight, and they are laid
out datly in a glove box, they will re-
tain their freshness much longer. A
hat or bonnet, when laid aside, should
be brushed carefully and placed in a box
with a cover or a piece of cloth thrown
over it to keep out the dust. Parasols,
especially those with light or delicate
covers, should have a b.5 provided for
them and hung in the closet where they
can be conveniently reached. Such.
parasois become more soiled lying
about on chairs and tables than they
do In use Always leave two loops for
hanging, both on corsage aud skirts of
dresses. On the former they are best
placed on the lever side of each arm
hole. Cloaks arc hung by a loop at
the back of the ncck. -fDetroit. Trib-

Calllarlne Jtkins,

Died ut the homo of her daughter, Mrs. @.
W. Eakins, July 20, 1888, Mrs, Catbarine
Likins. in tho 9th year Of her age. Deceased
was bern in Frcdrick county, Va, May 29th,
1895. Was married to Jonas Likins juno 10th,
1874. She and her husband united with tho
NJ. Z. Church the same year Of her marriage
and through three -fourths of a century served
her God fpitbfully in the church of her choice.
She removed with her husband qnd 8 children
from Virginia In 1921 and settled upon farm
in Highland county, o., near the village of
Berryville The county at that time was an
almost unbroken wilderness, and Sister
Likins has often remarked that the sound of
the AK by day and the bowling Of the wolves
by night was the music she heard in the early
years Of her married tife. Mrs. Likins was
the mother Of twelve children, six of whom
with her husband passed over the silent river
before her, and when her old and tired frame
reached the golden shore she found rest and
comfort in the presence of God and the com
panionship of husband and children. During
her residence in Virginia and after her remov.
al to Ohio her hovse was the regular preaching
place for tho old time Methodist preachers
who through tho unbroken forest faithfully
met and fed the flock Of God with the word Of
eternal life, and when the services wero over
the busy housewife would spread the board
with wholesome food, around which often the
whole congregation would gather and while
satisfying the cravings of tho physical man
would hold sweet converse about that land
afar, whore hardships were no more and
friends should meet to part never again.
Much has boep written about the pioneer
fathers whose sturdy hands cleared the forest
and prepared the soil for the precious harvest,
but scarcely q thought has been given 10 the
patient, loving pioneer mothers who guarded
with caro- tho sacred spot they called their
home. and with busy fingers and love.hiled
hearts toilod from morn until dusky eve for
husand and children. God alone knows how
the aours went slowly by when sickness de-
manded the midnight watchers, and when
come shaded spot where the wild rose grew re-
ceived their cherished dead. What rapid
changes have come over the face OF the past
since Sister I,ikins tirst knew the fair scenes
that greet the vision Of those now living. She
never grew old, her eyo was bright and her
heart was light rs she waited tho Masters
call. She had kind word and bright smile
for every one, and like an infant upon its
mothers breast sho folded her hands and fell
asleep with the whits robed angles around her
bed and the loving oadonee Of heavenly music
In her ears The writer knew her long and
we'll and with full heart desires to drop this
sprig of evergreen upon her silont grave, rs q
tribute of respect to the heroic struggles of her
early womanhood, and the purity, sweetness
and consistency Of her Christian character.
Her remains were placed beside her husband
in the Prospect grave yard. J. w. KLIsR.

Last week notice appeared in your
columns notifying the public that the
Lincoln Club would hold political
meeting and have good speeches, etc.,
and that all the members were invited
to attend. Some weeks ago there was a
notice that the Lincoln Club would rati-
fly the nomination, etc. Since when
was all interests in Republican princi.
pies confded to the Lincoln Club?
am also reminded that on the Fourth
OF July in this place the day was cele-
brated by the G.. A. r., and that the
soldiers graves were decorated on the
30th of May by the G. A. r. These are
all worthy organizations, and the writer
has not one word to say against them.
Yet, is it not fact that there are some
other patriotic people in this community
besides these organizations that might
take pleasure in these celebrations and
ceremonies? 1t is fact that new gen.
GRAFTON OF men have come into active
life since the war to whom lessons OF
patriotism are rs essential MS to any
others. Yet II our patriotism is to be
done by machinery, it may be this large
class will not think well of it. Referring
again to political action confined to a
club, to which the masses are hardly in.
vited and fear would be welcome, ! wish
to ask, is this good policyP The masses
vote; the masses own this country, and
a political party that ignores them will
not fare well in the end and are we not
running too much to clubs and cliques,
to personal and private interests, and
may not this all be brought out to the
disadvantage OF the party encouraging
it or not protesting against it? And
while I am at it wish to call attention
to the abuse of power by some one in
spending the public money for private
gain. In spending large sums of money
to make new streets, where none are
needed, TO enable the owners OF the land
to reap rich harvest by virtue of the
peoples money. If this was the only
use of public money for private gain, it
would still be inexcusable, but we find
it the rule, II public improvement is
being made the motive can be found in
the interest OF some OF the controlling
parties.
These things should be stopped. And
now having called the attention of the
public and the parties interested in these
things, and again expressing the kind.
est regards for the organizations referred
to, it is hoped that in the future no
cause for complaint will occur.
