100000 Letters Yearly Fail to
Reach Their Dc 1uatlOn.

The number OF lost letters reported to
the post-oftice department at Washington,
last year, was very large, and some facts
regarding these stray missives may be Of
general interest. There were received at
the dead letter office at Washington nearly
9, 900 900 missives, which, for one reason
or another, failed to find their addresses.
OF these, 10, 700 were not addressed at all;
$4,000 contained money, amounting in all
to $35, 900; and there were Enclosures Of
checks, drafts, etc., to the amount Of $1,-
600, 900 in %, 900 letters. or course in such
an immense correspondence as is done in
the United States, mistakes are inevitable,
but one would hardly expect that every
half hour Of the day and night a letter
would be dropped in the post-office with
no address whatever The amount OF
money which found its way to the dead
letter office instead of TO the persons To
whom it was due, indicates singular care
lessness in financial matters. 1t ought to
be possible to trace the ownerships of the
checks and drafts, but much of the money
doubtless will go into the national treasury
because of the inability OF the officials to
6nd the owners. There is a lesson in these
facts and figures, OF interest to all, for the
illiterate are far from being the only ones
to misdirect correspondence.

Blaine's Significant Utteranoes.

No careful observer of events can
misunderstood the meaning of the I'M
portant utterances made by Secretary
Blaine on Friday last. The whole
tone of his incisive letter to congress
on reciprocity with the American Re-
public, and of his reply 10 the Millers'
Convention at Minneapolis, antago-
nized the whole theory of the McKin,
ley tariff bill, and it should arrest the
final passage of the measure.
The Mckinley tariff bill, as we'll as
the amended Senate bill, directly an
tagonizes Mr.. Blaine's policy of recip-
rocity, and the singular spectacle is
presented of a caucus measure being
driven through Congress under the
party whip, while the Premier of the
administration is publicly protesting
against its leading features. But the
most pointed rebuke given to the high
war tax champions was administered
by Mr.. Blaine before the Senate CON-
mittee on the same day, where he ap.
peared to urge an enlarged appropria.
ton for the Pan American Congress,
The tariff was incidentally discussed
during Mr.. Blalne's presence, aud the
New York Herald reports him as
making the following pungent utter.
ance about the Mckinley bill:
1t is the most dangerous, if not the
most infamous, measure that was ever
concocted by any ariy. The meI
who vote for this bill will wreck the
Republican party. If were in the
Senate l would rather have my righ,
! arm torn out of its socket than vote fol
this bill.
1t is simply logical that Mr., Blaine
should express himself IN the fore
going terms about the Mckinney bill
His two public deliverances made OF
the same day, one of which was an Of
fetal letter to Congress transmitted by
the President without dissent, are ut
terly wrong il the Mckinley tariff bill
is right; and Mr.. Blaine could not con,
sistently declare the views so boldly
asserted in his letter to Congress anC
his answer to the Minneapolis millers
and give even passive assent to thu
new tariff bill of either the House o.
the Senate. 1t must be obvious to al
that the Mckinney bill has steadily
weakened in public approval since thu
day il was reported to the House, an(
Mr. Blaine evidently sounds the alarm
by his several recent aud emphati,
criticisms of the policy of the measure
He states the exact truth when HI
says that it "will wreck the Rspubli
can party."-zinsss.

The Secrets Of Success.
lFrom The Lyons IN. Ky Republican,

[From The Lyons IN. Ky Republican,
In 1879 Mr.. H o. Filler, Of this will
age, became possessed of formula
for the compoundlng Of medicine for
horses and cattle which had been in
his family for nearly century, having
been originated by his great grandfath-
er, chemist in England. During
these hundred years the remedy has
been continually improved by expert
ment and experience until in 1S47,
when it was brought TO this country, it
was known TO all stockmen in England
as without equal for the cure of various
diseases of horses and cattle and for
the keeping of the same in fine condi-
ton. During the early years ofits ex-
istance it was sold at four shilling the
pound (SD. When it came into Mr..
Filer's possession IN 1879 he conceived
the idea of putting it up in one full
pound package which should sell at the
price within the reach of all. He gave
it the name Peoples Horse and Cattle
powders, a name winch has since be-
come a synonym for excellence and pur-
ity.
The business, starting in a small
way, has rapidly extended under Mr..
Filer's management, until it now reach
es every State and Territory and takes
in Australia and South America.
At the beginning OF the present
year the buiness was converted into a
stock company, and is now being carri-
ed on by the Joppa Manufacturing
Company.
The success of this remedy has been
due to its recognized excellence and to
the scrupulous care which has been
taken to use only the best of chemically
pure materials. Everything passes a
most thorough test, and when the in
gradients 60 into the well-known red
label package and receive the seal of
the company they are accepted at once
as just what they are represented to
be. Purity has been insisted upon at
every stage of the manufacture, and
this is undoubtedly the great secret of
the success of the goods, especially as
of late years there are great numbers
of the light weight powders, concocked
of cheap and worthless materials which
are put on the market in competition
with Peoples Powders.
The Joppa Company is now greatly
extending its business, and it is graft
flying to US to learn that the present
years sales promise to greatly surpass
those of any previous year,

We can not commend the taste or
temper of the Democratic journals that
are trying to introduce an element of
enmity in the contest between Mr..
Wallace and Mr.. Pattison for the
Democratic nomination for Governor.
Fortunately there are not many of
these extreme partisans, but the few
there are seem to be doing all they can
to array the Democratic party of Penn
sylvania in two hostile camps on the
Governor question. They carry their
personal attachment to their favorites
to too great length. There is no oo-
casion whatever for the introduction of
such warfare.
Nothing could be in worse taste than
for Democratic journal 10 assume
that it opposes Pattison because he is
Quay's candidate, or that it objects to
Wallace because he is favored BY the
corporations. Yet we find extremists
indulging in this misohievous kind of
foolishness. Neither of these charges
is true. Mat Quay is far from want
ing 10 see Pattison nominated, and the
corporations expect no fsvors from
Wallace In fact, each of them has
an element of strength peculiarly his
own. Mr.. Pattison could draw the
larger support from the opposite party
Mr.. Wallace could more thoroughly or
ganize the party that would nominate
him. Which of them would afford the
greater advantage to the party in a
contest with the enemy is the question
to which theconvention should address
itself, without giving consideration to
any other object than success

Milk Without Ioe.
HOW 1T MAY BE KEPT SWEET ALL DAY IN
MIDSUMMER.

The following description by ply
sician of his method of keeping milk
sweet all day in hot weather without
ice is reproduced from the Baltimore
Sun:
"The method is this: The milk
when bought is at once put into ten
or twelve bottles-yeast bottles are
good enough-one bottle for each
nursing. As much water as is desired
is added, say one sixth or one-quarter
the amount of the milk. The bottles,
ought not to be quite full, are then
corked tightly with wad of raw cot
ton two or three inches long. The
bottles are next placed, five or six at a
time, in pan of water, which is heat
ed to boiling for at least half an hour.
The bottles are then put in the shade,
still corked with the cotton, and when
the baby wants to nurse one OF the
bottles is unstopped and the nipple is
put on as usual.
"One of my patients keeps milk
fresh all day in this way, putting it into
a cupboard in the yard without any ice,
and the milk agrees nicely with her
baby. My belief is that the introduct-
ion of this method will save hundreds
of children's lives every summer. This
method is founded on scientific teach.
ing, and is parctically the same as that
used in the best children's sanitariums.
The idea is to destroy all disease mat
ter that has got into the milk, and not
let any more get in. The cotton
strains out from the air any disease
matter that may be in it.
'Of course, the bottles must be
cleaned Immediately after each nursing
with hot water and soap, aud then fill
ed with cooking soda aud water till
they are used again. The nipple aud
rubber tube, if one is used, mnst be
very carefully cleaned also. Milk pre-
pared in this way is very nearly, if not
quite, as wholesome as if it were drunk
directly from the COW. This method
will, of course, not make sour milk
sweet, but if the milk comes from the
dairy sweet it will keep it sweet for
several days, and it will destroy dis
ease germs that have fallen into the
milk, Milk prepared in this way is
generally much more wholesome than
"condensed milk" or "baby foods.
Children who are fed all summer in
this way, if they take nothing but thii
milk and water which has been well
boiled, are likely to go all summer
without any disease of the stomach Of
bowels"

Politics In The State.
Ex-AUDIroR GENERAL TEMPLE BELIEVES
WALLACE WILL PIE NOMINATED.


Ex-Auditor General Temple, who is
one of the delegates from Greene
County to the Democratic State Con-
vention, being asked his opinion as to
the relative merits of the candidates
for the Democratic nomination for
Governor said: democratic Greene
is for William A. Wallace for Cover
nor. First, because her Democrats
favor straight Democracy; second, be-
cause they want statesman TO fill the
executive chair; finally, because they
believe that Wallace has a positive
strength, both as an organizer and as a
representative of the conservative bus
iuess interest of the State, which would
add greatly to the Democratic poll In
November.
Il have noticed that it is claimed
that Patison would get great many
Republican votes. This talk comes
from class Of Republicans who try TO
force Quay TO drop Dslamater in the
Republican State Convention. After
that convention shall have been held,
there will be little of that sort
of thing left. Democrats will find
themselves deceived il they permit
themselves to be governed by that
kind of influence in making their nomi-
nation. On the other hand, Wallace's
strength is solid and lasting. The
more his record is examined the brighter
it will shine. A man of national re-
putation. When he was in the United
States Senate he was made the active
leader Of the party in that body at the
suggestion of men like Allen G. Thur
man, Thomas F. B,yard and james b.
Beck. He has given the best years of
his life to the service of his party. 1t
will not do to turn down such man in
order that some personal preference
may be subjected.
81 have travelled over the State o
good deal and believe that Wallace
will be nominated"
