UNCLE JERE RUSK FOR PRESI-
DENT

There can be no doubt about the
secretary's qualifications. He is a
practical and expert mower. His
performance in riding position on
the nigh horse of hay wagon has
endeared him to all true hayseed
hearts. His great work on the dis
eases of the horse has filled the world
of veterinary science with wonder
and amaze. He can make hay while
the sun shines, go in when it rains,
call spade spade, hoe his own
row, wait till the COWS come home,
buy pig in a poke, lock the barn
door after the horse has been stolen,
put the cart before the horse, let the
still SOW eat the chat. take the bull
by the horns, go to grass, feel his
oats, come through therye, acknowl
edge the corn, and beware the back
action of mule. In short, he is an
accomplished agriculturist; and the
uncomprehended farmer can have
perfect confidence in him. The duty
of the hour is to rally around Jere-
miah Rusk If he is ever elected
president, the misunderstood farmer
will have justice done him, and the
number of potatoes ia hill will be
doubled by executive proclamation

SIMPLE WA STE BA SKETS.

An almost indispensable article in
every room is waste basket, and
when a very pretty and serviceahle
one can be made at cost not to ex-
coed % cents, there is no good reason
for going without it.
An ordinary half-bushel peach
basket will cost about 5 cents
if there are not half dozen about
the house that one is glad to be rid
OF. This may be lined with colored
cambria fastened in place by uphols-
terry tacks The outside should be
covered with cambria of contrasting
color, or the same if preferred. The
outside can be shirred on and finished
with loops and ends of worsted braid
to match in color A basket of this
sort lined with cambria and painted

THE CLOTHES QUESTION.

A traveller returned from the Pa
cifc ocean tells pleasant stories of
the Patagonians. AS the steamer he
was on was passing through Magel
1an's Straits some natives came
out to her in boats. They wore no
clothes at all, though there was
snow in the air. A baby that came
along with them made some demon
stration that displeased it's mother,
who took it by the foot, as Thetis
took Achilles, and soused it over the
side of the boat into the cold sea-
water. When she pulled it in, it lay
a moment whimpering in the bot
tom of the boat, and then curled up
and went to sleep. The missionaries
there have tried to teach the natives
to wear clothes, and to sleep in huts;
but SO far, the traveller says, with
very limited success. The most shell
ter a Patagonian can endure is
little heap of rocks or a log to the
windward of him. as for clothes, he
despises them, and he is Indifferent
to ornaments.
1t takes occasional contact with
such people as the Patagonians to
keep US in mind that civilization is
the mere cultivation of our wants,
and that the higher it is the more
our necessities are multiplied, until,
if we are rich enough, we get ener-
waited by luxury, and the young men
come IN and carry us out.
We want SO many, many things;
it seems a pity that those simple
Patagonians could not send mission
aries to us to show us how to do
without Must the wants of the
body-shelter, clothing, and food
be cultivated first, before the capaci-
ties of the soul can be developed and
gratihed? Doubtless the mission
aries know their business, and are
going about it in the right way; yet
all the same it seems odd that the
rudiments of taste for brown-stone
fronts and brocade and terrapin
should be cultivated as fit prelimin-
airy to Christianity. Count Tolstoi
is the man for Patagonians. Their
attitude toward luxury seems to be
almost identical with his, and they
would have scarcely anything to un
learn before accepting his teachings.

WA SIZING LACE.

To wash lace or white Madras
curtains: After taking the draperies
down, shake and brush the dust
from them, then soak for half an
hour in warm suds Heat half a
boilerful of water, shave into it half
bar of good white soap, and add
three tablespoonfuls of clear kerosene
oil. When the soap has dissolved,
put in the curtains. Occasionally
turn them over carefully with a
clothes-stick. When they seem clean,
remove to a rinsing water. After
rinsing thoroughly, dip them in an
other water, to which has been added
a little boiled starch. This will not
stiffen them much, but will give them
just little body such as new cur
ta1nS possess.
In case a creamy tint is desired,
strain little coffee into this last
water. If one is so fortunate as to
possess curtain frames, the remainder
of the work is simple enough. In
lieu of these, however, sheets may be
fastened to the carpet, and the cur
tains carefully pinned to these. Ma
draS curtains do very well if irOned
upon the wrong side while damp.
They must first be stretched, how
ever, and are much more liable to
tear than when pinned to sheet and
allowed to dry without ironing.
Madras curtains containing colored
figures frequently launder quite as
we'll as plain ones. 1t will be we'll to
test small piece when possible be-
forehand, SO that in case the colors
run you can take them to a profes-
sional cleaner, who understands the
dry cleaning process.-[G Good House
