For Nominations.
TCh0Ulest0yl World.

So the convention decided for nomina-
tions, and we caInot say that We are in the
least surprised, for it was the most natural
course which it could have adopted.
Had not such q determined attack been
made upon this section Of the Democracy;
had the motives of the leaders been less
virulently assa!led. it is quite possible that
the result I.ight lave been different, for men
can often be indUced and persuaded into the
abandonment OF their ideas for the sake of
harmonlzing differences with their friends,
but bullying methods when resorted to in
dealing with the independent manhood of
this State and country, only results in wsld-
ing them lntoa 4 compact and determined
mass.
The nominees OF the March convention
have the advantage Of being first in the field
and they will stand or fall upon their merits
Their friends should, therefore, rally to their
support and knowing now exactly what del
egates to choose, see to it that from every
county delegates representing their views
attend the regular convention
Opposed to them they have, it is true, the
organized forces of the regular Democracy,
but it will be q fair, square fight within the
party, and We think that the nominees Of
the March convention will be the nominees
of the party.
Whatever else may be said about the plat
form Of the March convention, it cannot be
ridiculed, for it represents the expressions
of opinion of men who are thoroughly in
earnest, and who have positive IDEAS of re-
form.
Whether we agree, therefore, with all os
the planks, or no, we must remember that
we all, as Democrats, have an invitation in
it, to show up its defects where we find
them, to the people, and that this can best
be done by temperately worded argument.

''Wanting Office all the Time"
fNears m,d CWa;u'.1

Capt. Tillman struck the nail squarcly on
the head last night when, in accepting his
nomination for Governor, he said: ''Mcn,
plenty Of them, will preach from the house
tops and say, There, told You so; he has
been wanting Office al the .ime"' How can
Capt. Iillinan expect plenty Of men to say or
believe anything else in view Of his own con-
fesSion which he made in his address to the
convention last night:
''If you ask me to lead this fight, said
Capt. Nllman, you call upon me to lead a
forlorn hope, but you will have at your head
the only man who has the brain and the nerve
and the ability to organize the common peo-
pie against the aristocracy ''You have
adopted & platform" continued Capt. Till
man; what is the use Of putting out aplat-
TOM unless you put a man before the peo-
pie who knows it, endorses il, las slept over
it, and can explain it to the people and fight
for it AMI give it lite and force
Ofcourse, men, plenty OF them, will preach
from the housetops and say: There, Itold
you SO; he has been wanting Office all the
time !" What else can they say? What would
Capt. Till.nan say? Behold the reform
movement has degeneratel into a Tillman
scramble for office.

The census enumerators will be
around during the coming summer,
says an exchange, and will be likely to
meet with individuals who will be
averse to giving the information re-
quired by the census laws. It may be
well for such people to Know that they
are liable to a fine Of $50 for refusing
to answer the questions which it is
the duty of the euumerator to- put to
them. The head of the family is the
proper person to give this informa-
tion, and the law provides that in the
absence of the head of the family or
any of its adult members, "any agent
of the family shall supply the required
information"

Mrs. S. 4. NETTLES.

We have noticed several articles Of
late on the subject of sitting rooms
and the parlors of the middle class,
the writer's urging that the children
should have free access to the parlor,
bringing their toys and books with
them. ':Then indeed will you have a
best room worthy the name, and for
children and father as well as the
stranger within your gates"
That sounds we'll, but in the pres
ent state of domestic economy, en-
phatically it cannot be done. The
great majority of women are depend
ent for household work on very inef-
ticient servants, or often on their own
hands, and this with little children
clinging to mothers skirts precludes
the delightful possibility Of always
taking the new conner into ones
home life" as some have put the par
lor question. For the housewife, I
verify believe there are many tired
mothers who lind comforts like to that
in a religious belief, in the conscious
ness when the sharp clang ofthe door
bell strikes in upon her and her noisy
brood, that there is one spot in the
house fit for whosoever may enter, be
he book agent OF clergyman going his
rounds, and free from chairs harness
ed together, headless dolls, and mo-
lasses candy-ready, always ready.
Not long ago noticed somewhere
directions how to make very pretty
mats of white cotton wadding. Cut
piece of the wadding the size you
desire the mat to be, and then cut
strip about two or three inches wide
and edge with colored zephyr, pink or
green l think would look best. Plat
this in triple box-plaits alound the
mat. This is certainly very simple
way of making mats and think very
pretty when finished.
Onions are much nicer if Boiled in
milk; if water is used for boiling them
it should be changed when they are
half-cooked. Boil until tender, and
serve whole, seasoning with butter,
salt, and pepper.
How TO Cook BEEF LIVER Gut It in
thin slices, pour over them boiling
water, let stand for an instant, then
drain off; have ready some finely roll
ed bread or cracker crumbs, dip the
slices in these, tlcn fry in hot fat, beef
drippings, lard or butter. Place the
Slices in the hot fat, seasoning with
pepper and salt to taste, put on the
cover, and let cook slowly, turning
once, until both sides are dark-brown
and the liver tender, which will be in
about three-fourths of an hour.
WATER LILY P PENwIpER.-Cut, of dark
green flannel five leaves, about two
and one-half inches wide at the top,
and sloped gradually toward the bot

a circle of cloth, so that they sitround

Billy's proboscis, and with it the
pungent flavor of the cocktail. Not long ago
Billy went home to his little wife with his nose
thus decorated She is watchful and willy, and
without saying anything hecked the sugar off
with her handkerchief. A few evenings later
Billy again came home with his nose sugared.
This time his wife spoke about it, but Billy
couldn't imagine where the thing came from. He
always carefully disguised his breath, but never
noticed the danger-sgnal on his house. When
the white powder appeared on Billy's proboscis
third and fourth time, and always synchron-
ously with disguised breath, as his wife
detected when she kissed him, the little
woman became decidedly suspicious, but said
nothing But the next time it occurred-and
this time the deposit Of sugar was very large
she removed the powder with the tip of her
finger and then touched the tip of her tongue
to it. Oh, horror AS sure as fate it tasted
of spirits Billy had been drinking.
She taxed him with his perfidy,
and when she sprung the chain
Of evidence on him which she had been gather
ing for many days, he had to confess all and
promise to reform. And he has reformed, to
the extent, at least of never drinking out of
sugar-coated glass.
