AMMONIA AS A CLEANSER.

A FEW drops in cupful of warn
water applied carefully, will remove
spots from paintings and chromos.
GREASE spots may be taken out with
weak ammonia in water; lay soft white
paper over and iron with hot iron.
YELLOW stains left by sewing ma
chine oil on white may be removed by
rubbing the spot with n cloth wet with
ammonia before washing with soap.
EQUAL parts of ammonia and tur-
pentine will take paint out of clothing,
even if it be hard and dry. Saturate the
spot as often as necessary and wash out
in soap suds.
IF those who perspire freely would
use little ammonia in the water they
battle in every day it would keep the
flesh clean and sweet, doing away with
any disagreeable odor.
PUT a tablespoonful of ANN onia in a
quart of water, wash your brushes and
combs in this, and all grease and dirt
will disappear. Rinse, shake and dry
In the sun or by the fire.
FLANNEL and blankets may be soaked
in pail of water containing one table
spoonful OF ammonia and a little suds.
Rub as little as possible, and they will
be white and clean and will not shrink.

But perhaps you won't

another reason for trying

It's a plain business offer.
The makers of DR.. Sage's

MEN WITHOUT A COUNTRY.

1t is not easy to understand why the Admins
tration should be attacked for its successes In
Reciprocity. The treaty made with Brazil is
highly advantageous to the business interests of
the country. In the course of five months after
it went into effect there was an increase OF
$1,169,592 in the exports from the United
States over those of the same period OF the pre-
ceding year. That is distinct gain for the
industrial interests of the country. No Ameri-
can journal ought TO he employing its energies
in carping attacks upon the treaty and in ma
lciOus attempts to prove that 1t was negotiated
BY the State Department in bad faith. III the
Administration has done much to enlarge the
export trade with Brazil and the Spanish West
Indies, it ought to have full credit for it from
journals of both parties. The ordinary issues of
domestic politics offer 50 large a field for par
tisanship that there is no necessity for carrying
the same spirit of impacable hostility into for
eign relations. Partisanship ought to be ex-
cluded from all public discussion of diplomatic
questions and foreign trade relations.
Unfortunately there are journals in this town
which cannot refrain from attacking an Admin
istration conspicuous for the vigor, frmness and
practical efficiency of its diplomacy Theirs is
partisanship of particularly vile type which
seeks to discredit the State Department at home
and abroad, catches up every indecent charge
and reckless libel appearing in foreign prints,
and is more hostile even than the English press
in its structures upon the conduct of American
diplomatic and naval officers. Within a few
weeks the tatte OF English correspondents at
Valparaiso and the most outrageous calumnies
of CHILEAN journals have been accepted by these
partisan critics against the word of Admrals Of
the American feet the positive denials of
American Ministers and the official declarations
Of the State Department. The widest and least
responsible comments appearing in newspapers
controlled by English merchants and bankers in
Brazil are repeated with precipitate haste and
accompanied by vehement denunciation of the
State Department for dupliciy violation OF
public honor and foul play generally.
There can be only one way Of accounting for
this wanton display of partsanship. The Ad-
ministration, in unfolding American interests
abroad and enarging the opportunities of ex-
porters, has excited the rancorous hostility OF
Englishmen. Naturally, those journals in this
town which represent importers interests and

GIVE rs SPRINGER.

After ALL why not Springer? In many re-
spects he fills the BILL In some respects, way
up to the top and just the merest trife over.
And we have the testimony of Artemus Ward
that George Washington never quite did that.
In all the canvassing for the Speakership now
going on there is not so much said about Springer
as his merits will bear. This circumstance has
been noticed by Springer himself, and he has
taken pains to go to Washington and call at
tention to it, In the first place it has been
announced in high quarters that the Speaker
of the next House must be the Democratic mem
Der who is "most unlike Tom Reed" This
is a test that will commend itself to the average
intelligence of the party. There is great deal
of loose talk about Free Trade and Free Silver
and the Civil Service and what are called prin-
ciples, but no active and aggressive Democrat
permits himself Ia be fooled with any such
nonsense The Democratic idea, the recognized
ruling principle of the party, is to "get even"
That was the ground upon which it appealed
to voters in this State in the late election; Tam
many Hall having lost the Worlds Fair, the
great thing to be done was to "get even" with
somebody for it. The Democratic idea is some
times lost sight of in the food of talk about FREQ
Trade and Currency and Civil Service, but al
Ways in the end it comes out clear and unmis-
taxable IL is to get even"
Now, in the Speakership contest the thing to
do is to "get even" with "Tom" Reed. For
that reason it has been announced that the man
for Speaker is the member who is most unlike
"Tomn Reed. And we say, unhestatingly, that
Springer is that man. If appealed to on the
subject, we have no doubt that "Tom" Reed
himself would assent to the proposition. In
deed, there is reason to believe that he would
go somewhat out of his way, if necessary, to
say so. This not because OF any dislike on his
part for the Illinois statesman. For "Tom"
Reed would be the worst kind of an migrate il
he harbored any unkind feelings toward man
he has had so much fun with for so many years
Unless he has a thoroughly bad heart he must
be very fond of Springer. Nor is it likely, on
the other hand, that Springer has any hard feel
ing toward Reed. For it has always been
noticeable feature of the playful passages be-
tween the two that when Reed was having the
most fun with Springer the complaoent manner
with which the latter allowed himself to be
played with indicated that he honestly thought
he was having some fun himself. And his un-

Free-Trade principles are swayed by deep
feeling Of resentment. Reciprocity is so good
thing for the United States as to be serious
blow to English trade. Therefore it must be
attacked by these censors as unconstitutional as
a policy of false pretences and fimsy results
and AZ base and treacherous trick by which
Brazil has been imposed upon. These journal
lists without country are ready to make the
foulest charges against the State Department
which has successfully promoted the business
interests of the United States And why3 BE-
cause the Administration does not employ Its
energies in making treaties and commercial ar
rangements which are favorable to England, but
deyotes itself with zeal and persistency to Amerl-

Intelligence from the Croton region yesterday
afternoon was that the city, in point OF water
supply, was "all right for two weeks" 1t is
important that this message should not be mis-
understood. 1t means that the rains have given
a little relief and that for fortnight more the
present daily supply of eighty or ninety million
gallons may be counted on. The need OF the
strictest economy in the use of water is still
impeIative and if rain does not come soon the
amount now sent through the watermains will,
of course, have to be still further reduced. I'm
fortunately, there is no immediate prospect OF
further rain 1t cleared of cold last evening
and the outlook is for moderately cool and clear
weather during the next few days.
