SOME USEFUL HINTS.

Use common salt when sweeping carpets and it will brighten the colors wonderfully. e To prevent a bruise becoming black and blue, rub first in sweet oil, then in spirits of turpentine.
 To remove coffee stains, put thick glycerine on the wrong side of the article and wash out in lukewarm water.
 To take out iron mold stains, wet with milk and cover with salt. The latter also rubs egg stains from spoons.
 If your sewing machine runs hard and your oiler is empty, try as a substitute equal parts of clean lard and kerosene oil.
 If there be much sickness about the neigh borhood, boil the water which is used in babies food, for boiling kills all the animal culae contained in the water. Cool it before using.
 Cabbage leaves deprived of their coarse nerves libs) make an excellent dressing for wounds of various kinds and obstinate ulcers. Apply night and morning with a bandage over them.
 To remove paint from windows, take strong bicarbonate of soda and dissolve it in hot water. Wash the glass, and in twenty minutes or half an hour rub thoroughly with a dry cloth.
 To clean bottles, put into them some ker- nels of corn and a tablespoonful of ashes, half fill them with water, and after a vigor- ous shaking and rinsng you will find the bot ties as good as new.
 Clean white marble stoops, halls or walks by having them washed with mop<which has been dipped in boiling hot water and soda. Use good deal of soda and allow it to dis solve. It is very effective.

sUCCEss TO YOU, MIR MILLS.


 Filibustering is not the highest or most desirable form of statesmanship, but the democratic party generally will agree with MT Mills that the present exigen- cies in the house admit of no other course. The democratic party, by ali the force of its traditions and by the ex- press declarations of its platform in the last campaign, is committed to reduc- tion of taxes on the necessaries of life, and any departure that looks to the re- duction of taxes on whiskey and tobacco while clothing and food are taxed at tLeir present rate is wrong in principle and contrary to the spirit of democracy.
 MT Randalls persistent determination to get the Cowles bill through the house is direct surrender of democratic prin- ciples, and should be resisted by every device known to legislative proceeding. The repeal of the internal revenue tax is the very essence of the republican platform in the last campaign, and is exactly what the people con- demned last November by majority of nearly hundred thousand votes. The democratic party cannot afford to disap- point and offend that great popular ma fidence that the American people have always reposed in democratic adherence to right and justice. The tobacco tax and the whiskey tax are no hardship on hn hx the people by simply going without the stuff There is no reason for taking of the tax on whiskey and tobacco while clothing and fuel and food and the raw materials that enter into our manufac lures carry the heavy burden of taxation that now weights down the common people. Certainly there can be no ex cuse for democrats who thus play into the hands of the republicans, and NJ Randall should be given to understand that he is placing the democracy in { false position by endeavoring to commi it to the removal of taxes on luxuries.
 Filibustering, if no other course Ii effective, is perfectly justifable in th' present emergency. Mir Mills will hav' the approval of his party and the sane tion of honest men who want the sur plus revenues reduced in the only wa, that can bring good results-by the re duction of taxes on the necessaries O life. Success to you, MT Mills, and ma, YOU defeat the undemocratic, cowardly traitorous course that Mir Randall i steering.

PRESIDENT HARRISON will have the honor of announcing after the 4th O.

GOVERNOR BrCKNER'S RICHES.
How lie Lost Them IA the War and How
They Came Back to Hin Again.

LOUISVILLE. March Did the readers
of the Sun ever hear how General Simon
Bolivar Buckner, present governor of
Kentucky, lost and won his f0riunes II
is one Of the most remarkable of real
rOmances.
Gen. Buckners first wife was Miss
Kingsberry, very beautiful and accom-.
plished woman. She inherited q large
fortune, and at the time OF her marriage
was considered the Wealthiest heiress in
the South Her estate was valued at
$500 600 Through fortunate invest
ments and judiciOus management Gen.
Buckner largely increased this amount.
AT the opening of the war General
Buckner went with the South. Most OF
his wife's property was in Northern
cities, principally in Chicago When he
Joined the COntederacy he feared that all
this would be cOniisCated by the Union
Government After much thought 10
was decided to save the whole of it By
deciding il 10 Mrs Buckners brother.
Mr. hingsberry, who strongly sympa-
thized with the North This was done,
md General Buckner took command OF
division of the southern army.
Young kingsberry had become a gal
liant soldier with the Federals One day
Is he was going into battle he said he
had a premOnitiOn OF death. Remem-
bering the trust the Buckners had
imposed upon him, he told the
story TO brother officer, and
wrote an account Of the conveyance
of the large estate upon slip OF paper.
Helequested his companion in arms t0put
il away. and in case Of accident 10 send
il or deliver il 10 the Buckner family when
opportunity presented itself after the
war. The Young officer complied with
the request. The battle came on and
Kingsberry was among the slain.
The war ended and kingsberry's
friend went to Europe The rush OF in
cilents had caused him 10 forget all
about the paper lie did not return TO
America for several years Shortly after
his return he was in Washington and
met General Burnside, whom he
had known during the war He
inquired Of the General concern
ing the Buckners OF Kentucky General
Burnside told him how General Buck
ner had made over his property 10 his
broiher-in-law Kingsberry, who had
been killed in battle. The Aroperty had
then reverted to young hingsberry
heirs. as no will or memorandum OF the
transfer had been found
But there is a memorandum ex-
claimed the young officer, and have IT,

The next day after the dinner party
he started out To find the document, Of
which he had not before thought since
the death Of young Kingsberry. After a
long search he found the paper, and a
tedious and costly lawsuit was ended,
for it clearly established General Buck

larger part of which consists Of office
