When sickies play among the wheat,

With apples plump ard tart,
And tell ner plsiu thing she knows

Democratic successes the past week
are familiar story. II is only neces-
sary to point out that Democrats
succeeded Republicans in most of the
New York cities, in Milwaukee,
Helena, Mont, Kansas City, Mo-;
Bismark, N. d in many of the In
diana townships and among the rest,
in Cleveland and Dayton in Ohio. In
places where the local Democracy
already held control, Democratic
pluralities were increased. The re-
suit in Indianapolis, where Repub-
lican majority of 400 two years ago
was changed TO one of $500 for the
Democrats, is ascribed by the Indian
apolis Journal to the poorest organ
zation the Republicans have had in
years while the Democrats are not
slow to make dissatisfaction with
President Harrison one of the causes
as well. The Rhode Island election
also tends to cheer the Democratic
heart.

Hereditary Blood Poison.

Many of the evils of life are inheri-
ted. Parents transmit to their chill
dren stage of blood impurity.
What fearful heritage to bequeath
an innocent child! Scrofula, skin
diseases, erysipelas, sore eyes, ring
worm, letter, eczema, scald head,
scabby surfaces, syphilitic symptoms,
lucrative and consumptive tenden-
cies, etc., all of which make life mis-
cradle, and the victim prey to de-
signing guacks. 1t is surely a dis
grace that this should be so. 1t is
manifestly the duty of every one to
keep their blood pure and their sys-
TENS in condition of good health,
Nature has given us kindly herbs
that will accomplish this if properly
used. The best are used with care

disease, you do yourself great injus-
tice if you fail to try it.--SprinGfeId

Egyptian Stockings.

The Egyptians of the present
Kepts as we'll as Arabs-run about
with bare feet. The ancient Egyp-
tians, on the contrary, who are now
only to be seen in dried condition
in museums, possessed very good
method of knitting stockings, as is
shown in the collection at the Lou
vre, in Paris. In the grave of a
mummy there was found pair of
knitted stockings, which gave the
surprising evidence, firstly, that
short stockings, resembling socks,
were worn by the ancient Egyptians;
and secondly, that the art of knitting
stockings had already attained great
perfection in ancient Egypt. These
curious stockings are knitted in a
very clever manner, and the materi-
al, fine wool of sheep, that might
once have been white, is now brown
with age. The needles with W hich
the work was done must have been
a little thicker than we should choose
for the same purpose, and the knit
ting is loose and elastic. The stock
ing is begun just as we make the
designs, only in the simplest manner,
with single thread; but in the con-
tinuation of the work it is not SIM
ply plain, but fanciful. The usual
border of the stocking which pre-
vents the roolling up of the work is
narrow, consisting of a row of
turned-up. loops; and the circle, the
nicely-shaped heel, which is little
different from our method, show a
very skillful hand. But in the point
of the stocking there is characters
tic difference between the Egyptian
stockings and the modern socks.
While ouls end in rounded point,
the Egyptian stockings run out in
two large tubes of equal width, like
the fingers of glove. This strange
shape is made to suit the sandals,
which are furnished with a strap
fastened about the middle of the SAN
dial; and as the strap had to be laid
over the stocking the division is
needed.

Why Democrats Are Cheerful.

Springfield Republican.
The disposition of the Democratic
press to make much of the string of
Democratic municipal victories this
spring is not without some basis in
fact, although it should be remem-
bered that the Democracy is apt to be
strong politically in the centres of
population. A review of the recent
elections indicates local drift quite
unparalleled in recent years. The
slide began in the first week ofMarch
when II out of 10 cities in New York
chose Democratic mayors. At the
same time five out of seven cities in
Iowa did likewise, while Saginaw in
Michigan heralded an almost unex-
pected success in the Michigan cleo
items of last week, when Grand Rap
ids, for instance, increased the
Democratic plurality Of u one year
ago to one Of POO. The more recent
