A Clock for Lazy Persons.

An electrical attachment has been
devised which may be applied to any
ordinary clock for awaking a sleeper
at any given time, the continuance thus
taking the place of the ordinary alarm
clock that needs to be specially pro-
vided for the purpose, and which needs
to be wound up the night before it is to
give forth its sound. The electrical
clock is SO constructed that it can be
set to any given five minutes of each
hour, the bell beginning to ring at that
time, and continuing to ring until the
switch is turned to cut off the electric
current. There is, of course, no call
for winding an alarm where this device
is employed, it being only necessary on
going to bed to turn the switch, thus
allowing the circuit to be completed at
the time the bell is to ring. In this
arrangement the clock and battery are
made in a compact form, the cell Of the
battery being enclosed in the clock
case,

A Hundred Tons of Money.

1t hardly seems possible that the money
paid In one month for a ten-cent article,
could, if pennies were used in payment
weigh one hundred tons Yet one of our
bright school boys has figured that this is
true Of Diamond Dyes. To judge from the
stocks Of our dealers in dye stuffs, Diamond
Dyes own the field OF package dyes, and are
q complete success. OF course they havo
imitators. Nothing is a success until imi-
tated." But no one wants to risk q counter
felt when the genuine can be obtained at the
same price. Three new coors have lately
been added TO the list of Diamond Dyes !:
Fast Stocking Black, Turkey Red for Cot
ton. and Brown for Cotton. The manufac-
turers, Wells, Richardson & Co, Burling-
ton, VI, will send colored samples of these
new dyes with book Of directions to any
address, free OF charge. These additions
seem to have made the line so complete that
any shade can be matched with some color
OF Diamond Dyes The beautiful sample
book of shaded colors, lately sent 10 all deal
ers in dyes, will delight the eye of any lady.
ATS easy to dye with Diamond Dyes" is SO
absolutely true that home dyeing is no longer
a difficult and dtsagreeable task. Almanacs,
with their hints as TO proper times for diff
ferent work, tell us that now is the time for
Spring dyeing. This, together with the
thought OF that hundred tons of money,
leads us to ask what school boy can figure
how many thousands of ladies are now say
ing that this is the time to use Diamond
Dyes.

A TRAVELLING MAI
Creates Great Excitement in the
Empire House.

INDEPENDENCE, IA, Oct. IA, 1888.
Rheumatic Syrup Co., Jackson, Mich:
GENTs:-Your Mr.. Brooks came here
tonight and registered as agent for
Hibbard's Rheumatic Syrup, and as he
did so, it awakened in me an interest
never before realized in guest at my
house. You will not wonder at it
when / tell you the story. For years
l have been greatly afflicted with in
flammatory rheumatism, the pain and
soreness of the joints at times being
almost unbearable; could move about
only with the use of crutches. In ad-
dition to this my stomach became badly
diseased, and neuralgia set in, which
threatened to end my days. A travel
ing man stopping with me gave quite
history of your Syrup, and the pecul-
iarities of its combination, which in
duced me to try it. l have taken six
bottles, and no act in my life affords
me greater satisfaction than in writing
you that am WELL MAN.
1t will be pleasure for me to
answer any communications, for be-
lieve it the best remedy ever formu-
lated. j. A. BowLEY, Proprietor,

Female Progress in Japan.

The London Mode Of Fashion says
that the Empress of Japan is at tho
head OF powerful movement for bet
tering the condition of the women of
that country. She has established a
college fol- women at Toxic, under the
management of committee of Europe
an and American women. The stand
ard of education is very low, especially
in the country districts, and it is hoped
that this college will prove valuable
aid in raising the women Of Japan to
a higher level. In one Of the London
hospitals there are now three Japanese
ladies who are going through their
training as nurses, with the intention
Of returning to their own country when
qualified and teaching their country
women.

Bird Versus Burglar.

Mr. Emil Rothe, who lives at 267
Browne street, has q poll-parrot, says
the Cincinnati Enquirer. The bird
has been with the family for number
OF years, and is highly educated and a
great pet. Its cage is usually hung at
night in the rear room on the second
floor. A window of the apartment
overlooks a grape arbor, close against
the wall of the dwelling.
About five o'clock the other morn
ing Mr.. Rothe was awakened by the
bird, which was loudly shrieking
Papa! papa" The parrot kept up
these cries for several minutes, until
Mr.. Rothe, finally alarmed by the unu-
sual disturbance, determined to go and
see what was the cause. When he
turned on the light he saw poll sitting
on the cross-bar OF the cage. The
bird Immediately recognized him and
set up chattering and a chuckling OF
victorious "Ha, ha's!"
Poll looked like his famed predeces-
sor who had the exciting adventure
with the. monkey. One wing was
anu VIC UOItDll vi CdRC was
covered with feathers. The bird was
ruifled up generally, and in fact had
the appearance of having passed
through a threshing-machine.
There were blood marks on the wires
of the cage, and everything indicated
that poll had engaged in lively and
desperate fight. Looking around Mr..
Rothe found that the window was open.
On the sill were the prints of mans
fingers. A burglar had made an early
visit to the residence. Climbing up the
arbor he easily raised the window and
entered the room. His movement must
have awakened Poll The bird evidently
gave the alarm and the intruder, rea-
LIKING that something had to be done
quickly, at once attacked the intelli-
gent parrot. Thrusting his hand into
the cage the burglar tried to wiring the
birds neck. Instead of quietly sub
hitting poll showed fight. With beak
and claws poll attacked the robber,
sinking the sharp weapons into the
flesh of the intruder's hand. So vigor-
ously did poll use natures weapons
and the same time utter screams that
the burglar was forced to retire,
baffied and bleeding from painful
wounds. He must have dropped from
the window just as help reached the
door, as Mr.. Rotho heard the noise OF
fall as he entered.

Did it Elect Harrison?

The following appeared in a Mime
sofa paper: Members of the Democrat
ic party have been using all subterfu-
ges to account for their overwhelming
defeat, and numerous are the causes
alleged.
IL was talking with several of the
vanquished on Fourth Street the other
day, opposite bill board, and one of
the party exclaimed. eff it had not
been for the closeness of the National
Committee in the expenditure of money,
we would have elected our man. The
Republicans advertised their man like
a circus Several of the party remark
ed that no advertising was done except
small announcements in the papers, and
few Changers on the dead walls.

What do you call that but a circus

medicine poster on the bill board, bear
ing the cuts of Gen. Harrison and his
grandfather.
"If the Democrats had advertised
like that, Cleveland would have been
reelected.
The poster referred to was one Of the
| familiar black and white Log Cabin
Sarsaparilla posters sent out by an en-
terprising firm engaged in the manu-
| facture of old log-cabin home cures,
under the name of Warmers Log Cabin
Remedies, and among other equally
valuable articles includes the famous
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, which is every
where recognized as the best of all
spring medicines and stands without a
rival for the cure of all disorders which
are the results of impure blood.
The spring time of the year is the
season when the system needs renova-
ton; the long winter has caused the
blood to become filled with impurities.
There exists no better means to aid
and strengthen the system at such an
urgent period than the use of Warmers
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, which speedi-
ly restores the blood to a pure and
healthy state, which insures health and
happiness.
The reputation of the firm putting
out the medicine is above reproach,
and is the same firm which manufac.

We understand that the posters re

Fruit trees cannot thrive on all kinds
of exhausted soils. The trees will
make growth of leaves and wood on
poor land, but they require mineral
manure to perfect the fruit. Land that
has been too rough for blowing may
yet have spaces between the rocks
where fruit trees will thrive, and is
better than land that has been exhaust
ed by long cropping.
For Damp Closet-Fill q small box
with lime and put it on q shelf. 1t
should keep the air Of the closet dry
and pure.
A Kidney Stew-Cut all the good
parts into small pieces, lay them in
salt and water for half an hour; wash
them well, put on in clean cold water
to boil; as soon as it bois pour off that
water, put them in fresh water, with
an onion chopped fine, some bits of
butter rolled in flour, pepper and salt,
and simmer very gently until tender.
If you boil kidney fast and hard it will
| become tough as India rubber. A tea
spoonful of lemon juice improves the
stew.

taste, and n piece of vanilla. When
done put it into bowl to get cold.
Make a custard with n gill of milk and
the yolks Of four eggs. When cold mix
it with the rice. Beat up TO a froth q
gill of cream with some sugar and a
pinch of isingass dissolved in little
water; mix this very lightly with the
rice and custard; fill mold with the
mixture, and set it on ice. When mod
erately iced, turn it out and serve.
Hominy Drowned for Breakfast-In
small but rather deep trying pan put
a bit of butter, a little more than
enough to prevent sticking. When
this is hot and spread around the sides
with a spoon, fill the frying pan with
cold boiled hominy; press it in evenly;
cover till thoroughly heated. Then
remove the cover and let it remain on
| the range until brown crust has form
ed below and on the sides. Loosen it
with knife; lay a dinner plate on the
frying pan; turn them over together.
Then raise the pan and you will have
beautiful brown mold Of hominy.
Cream of Spinach-Fry half a chop
ped onion in little dripping of butter;
add pint of hot water, bit of mace,
few whole black peppers and cloves.
Chop one quart of spinach very fine;
| add it to the onion, cover and simmer
one hour; pour the contents of the pan
into a quart of clear soup; taste for
seasoning, simmer half an hour, pour
through sieve, rub the pulp through
the sieve and return it to the saucepan.
Dissolve half teaspoonful of -four in
half a gill of water, rub it free from
humps and add to the soup. When hot,
serve with bits of toast.

Buy two pounds of breast of mutton.
Trim off the outside fat and boil the

Lengthening DAYS.

When autumn comes with glooming skie
The days make haste to hide their eyes,
And more aud more reluctant rise.
When winter brings the biting blast,
They fold their arms and scurry past,
Each hurrying to outrun the last.
But when the sunward march begins,
And even the old earth lightlier spins,
Each day recounts the grace she wins.
A moment more to tend her fiowcrs.--
So prays she Of the generous powers,
So grow the gold linked summer hours.
Until, at songs and sunshine's height,
Their rapture oyerfiows the light,
To sigh with wakeful Joy all night.
