during a campaign which lasted but

I had any right to expect. L. is certain.

"What do you think OF the result in
the State?" was asked.
The Republican victory on the State
ticket was splendid. The unfairuess OF
tho gerrymander was manifested most
clearly By the recent election. The Re-
publicans carried ths State by popular
majority OF over i, ,000, while the Demo.
Gratis secured two.thirds OF tho Repre-.

Hints to housekeeperS,

Put dishes, tumblers and other glass
articles into kettle, cover them entirely
with cold water, and put the kettle wher
1t will soon boil. When 1t has boiled I
few minutes. set 1t aside covered close
When the water is,cold take out the glass
This process will harden the articles &C
that they will not be SO easily broken.
Equal parts Of ammonia and turpentine
will take paint out of clothing. even II /,
be hard and dry. Saturate the spot Of
often as necessary, and wash out In soap
snda .-----.--
Ready-made clothing, whether upper or
under garments, should have all the but
tons sewed on more securely before they
are worn. Those on under clothing are
usually held by "a stitch and promise, "
and they are lost the first time they are
laundried, Those on children's suits are
difficult to match, and . new suit soon
loses its jaunty freshness If fastened with
odd buttons.

Tho Drops

Last weeks New England Homestead
says that apples will be more scarce and
more costly this season than many a
year.
In Maine and limited sections of Yer
mont and New Hampshire there Is q fair
yield Of apples, being best in Maine.
Throughout southern New England,
New York, Pennsylvania and the interior
States generally the promise Of winter
fruit Is worse than was ever before
known. The apple area of western New
York along Lakes Ontario aud Erie,
which In q good season ships much more
than one million barrels to New York OF
foreign markets, has almost no CROP
whatever this year.
There is one considerable area In Mis-.
souri, and Kansas within an area of one
hundred miles of Kansas City, In which
there is = phenomenal crop of winter
apples Of fine quality. Eastern buyers
are already gobbling 1t up .. good prices.
Summer and fall apples are also short
and command good prices.
The Homestead thinks that choice
western fruit like prime Baldwins will
bring d to 45 per barrel In Boston and
New York within three months, The ex.
ports Of apples from the United States
and Canada of the 1890 crop will not be
much over 900. 900 barrels. against 100, 900
barrels last year and ZOO, 900 barrels In
1888.
Peaches are practical failure In south.
ern Ontario and Michigan - well q In
the southern States and Connecticut.
Pears and plums yield unevenly but are
far below the average yield and must
command good prices.
OF grapes, however, there will be an
Immense crop save In sections Of New
Jersey and the South where black rot IL
playing havoc with the fruits will sustain
the market for grapes.
The shortage Of large fruit Ii due 70 the
