Preserve Your Own Fruit.

Also Corn and Other Vegetables.
Prudent housekeepers will read
with interest the following infor-
nation sent by the Ohio Fruit
Company of Concord, o.:
Editor of The Item:-We have
noticed articles in several papers
lately regarding preserving fruit
by the California cold process.
Some write as though it was a pa
tent, and difficult to obtain the
right to use, but such is not the
case. The material used is the
compound extract of sslyx, which
any druggist, if he has not got it
in stock, can easily obtain. It has
been used by many large fruit
houses for years, so that the sys-
tenn is well established.
You do not heat or seal the
fruit-just pit the fruit in the
vessels you wish to keep it in and
pour the solution over the fruit
and it will keep its natural color
and taste for years. You can keep
currants on the stem, green corn
off the cob, and fruit and vegets-
bles of any kind in a perfectly ma
tural state. The cost is only about
one cent per quart and the labor
almost nothing. You can put up
a bushel of berries in ten minutes
easily. We have put up hundreds
Of packages of fruit by the Cali
fornis Cold Process" and We have
never had it fail to give satisfac-
ton, and We have shipped fruit to
all parts of the United States.
The salyx Is made especially for
preserving fruit and vegetables of
any kind, and the druggist from
whom you buy will give you CON-
plete directions for using. We
have berries, cherries, grapes and
pears kept this way, and we do
not believe any one could tell
them from fresh picked fruit, and
then it is SO cheap and SO little
trouble that everybody can derive
great benefit from the California
Cold Process, as we feel that any
one once trying it will never put
up another can of fruit or use an
other method.

Mr.. S. R. Gay, sugar planter
of this parish, and late candidate
on the WarmOth ticket for State
Auditor, has issued a call for "a
conference of sugar, rice, lumber
and other business men, irrespec-
tive of party, to be held at Frank
lin, La, on Wednesday, Sept. 9TH,
1892, for the purpose Of selecting
a Republican candidate to repre-.
sent the above interests in the Fl
fty-third Congress-" with the adj
ditional note that "the above con-
ference is for white men only."
DR.. Gay and hisassociates in this
movement, are honest and respon-
sible citizens who earnestly desire
to build up respectable Repu.
blican party in Louisiana, and
while We differ from them politi.
cally, believing in the Democratic
policy of tariff reform and opposi-
ton to the class Legislation of the
Republican party, yet we have no
objection to the existence of a vi
gorous organization in opposition
to the Democratic party, one that
would raise the standard of poll
ties in this State, and place her in
line with the more progressive
States of the Union. The elimin-
alton of the negro from politics by
both parties will hasten the COM
ing of the millennium. Our Re-
publican friends must he patient.

ed if they fail to land their candi-

What A Woman Can Do.

She can talk faster than a man
can hear.
She can say mo" and stick to it
for all time.
She can also say "No" in such
low soft voice, than it means
eyes"
She can eat her breakfast in
bed and enjoy it. This is some
thing that no man can do.
She can sharpen lead pencil if
you only give her plenty of time
and plenty of pencils.
She can get in a great, big, sell
fish hulk, in quantities when he
does not and never did possess.
She can dance ali night in a
pair of shoes two sizes too small
for her, and enjoy every minute of
the time.
She can pass a display window
of dry goods store without stop
ping if she lis running t. catch a
train.
She can appreciate kiss from
her husband seventy-five years af-
ter the marriage ceremony has
taken place.
She can walk half the night with
a colickly baby in her arms, with
out once expressing a desire to
murder the infant.
She can suffer abuse and neglect
for years, which one touch of kin
dness or consideration will drive
from her recollection.
She can go to church and after
wards tell you what every woman
in the congregation had on, and
in some rare instances can give a
faint idea of what the text was.
She can look her husband square
in the eye when he tells her some
cock and bull story about being
detained at the Office" without be
traying in the least that she knows
him to be a colossal liar.
She can in twenty minutes put
the children to bed. Bring her
husband his dressing gown and
slippers, seat him in the easiest
chair in the house, after which she
will wait patiently until II o'clock
for glance at the evening papers.
She can go into commissions at
the sight of a mouse, and five mi
nutes later she can listen to her
husbands story of his financial
ruin, with a loving smile on her
face, and with a courage in her
heart that comes not within the
knowledge of men.
She can-but what's the use?
A woman can do anything, and do
it well. She can do more in min
ute than a man in an hour, and do
it better. She can make the alle-
ged lords of creator bow low to
her own sweet will, and they will
never know it. Yes, a woman can
do everything with but one excep-
ton; she cannot climb tree.

Portland wholesale Market.

FOR THE WEEK ENDING Dec. H.
There are no very important movements TO
report in any of the leading departments, but
the volume of trade is remarkably good for this
season of the year. The general desire is to
keep stocks as low as possible until after the
holidays, when we shall look for increased ac-
tiyity in all branches of business. Teas are re-
ported decidedly firmer, and the tendency is
upward; several lots have changed hands re-
gently at an advance of 1 to l12e per pound,
Formosas are also strong and higher figures
are looked for. Hog products continue to main
tain strong position. and the prevailing opin-
ion seems to be that prices are going higher.
The Flour market has made no improvement,
and prices are very low In all the leading
markets to-. ay Wheat closed with better
tone and generally firm. Poultry receipts were
fair to-day and of good quality, prices ranging
from 10000. with fancy trife higher.
FREIGHTS-There is no improvement in the
dull and depressed condition of the market for
sail tonnage; if possible the depression is more
intense, for both off shore and coastWise The
steam tonnage supply, its growth having been
so rapid that it is suffering in common with
sail tonnage from its own excess. There is
some demand for ships with lumber from the
South to u. K. and Continent for February
loading at the low rates of 85sG87s for sawn
from the Gulf, and sos from Georgia. At New
York there has been little business in West
Indies freights, but at Slightly easier rates for
lumber and general cargo. The shipment Of
coal to Cuba is trifle more liberal, while rates
are exceedingly low in consequence of The large
supply of tonnage offering, but the return
freights are dull and weak. The coastwlse
trade is at a stand-still. especially on coal and
lumber, and many vessels are laying up for the
winter in default of employment at living rates.
The situation for steamship freights, according
to late reports from New York, is retty much
the same as the market for sail tonnage, and
has dwindled down to insignificant proportions.
rates in many instances being the lowest ever
remembered.
