IT is only distinction without a diff
ference. The substance of what we meant
to say and did say, Bro. filton, in refer
ring to congressional candidates, was that
the party was not indebted to any of them
to such an extent that they could right.
fully and consistently claim nomination
upon that hypothesis only. The party
owes it to itself to select the candidate
who can combine in himself the ele-
ments of strength, ability and honesty.
In other words the interest of the party
rather than those of the candidate should
be first considered.

THERE is in this state sort of a
mutual admiration society, known as
young republicans, composed of intellec.
tual political dudes whose only aim in
life seems to be to keep themselves con-
stantly before the public. And, as a
matter OF fact, that is about the only rea-
son there is for knowing of their exis-
tence. If they continue their antics for a
sufficient length of time they will accom-
plish their purpose of constituting all
there is of the republican party. The
rank and file will desert in sheer dis
gust. -Ness City NepS.

The Gulf Stream.

There are some queer things about
the Gulf stream. Even those, it is said,
who navigate its waters do not fully re-
alize the strength of it's current. Two
or three years ago a government vessel
was anchored in the stream observing
the current. The wind was very light
when a sailing vessel was sighted
ahead, drifting to the northward As
she came nearer and nearer it became
evident that there would be collision
unless steps were taken to prevent it.
The crew of the sailing vessel trimmed
their sails to the gentle air, but it was
useless, for onward she went, carried
by the irresistible force of the current
directly toward the bow of the steamer.
As the vessels approached each other,
by skillful use of the rudder on board
the steamer she was moved to one side,
and the sailing vessel drifted past a
few feet distant. The captain of the
latter was as astonished as he was
thankful that his vessel was not lost.
All that he could cry out in broken Eng
lish as he flashed by was: 81 could not
help it; the water bring me here"

4here 4 one reculiarity Of Hterssy
property-i in story, sketch or poem
which the average reader perhaps does
not take into account. It is the COM
parative facility with which the author
can, if he is dishonest, sell the same
thing over and over again to different
publishers without detection In the
multiplicity of publications it is an alb
solute impossibility for the most acute
and astute reader to decide whether
anything which is offered has ap-
peared before in some other publication
than the one which relies on his judg-
ment and discrimination; and the best
of them are more or less liable To be
made. the victims of literary dishon-
esty.
1t is pleasure to note, however, says
the Detroit Free Press, that the bust
ness of swindling periodicals and news
papers in this fashion is being made
more and more difficult. One, at least,
of the leading periodicals has opened a
'sblack book" in which are entered the
names of all writer's detected in offer
ing for sale matter which they have had
published before. If other publishers
will adopt a similar plan and make an
arrangement for regular interchange OF
lists. or for their publication in some
form accessible to all publishers, the
evil can be very greatly diminished. it

TIE formal announcement has been
made that james G. Blaine would not be
a candidate for president. No explana-
sions are made and no reasons assigned,
but those who think they can read be-
tween the lines say it is because OF his
health. No other living American could
have inspired the party as he could IN
the coming campaign, and the announce
ment will cause much sorrow and dis

THE influence of the country press is
being felt throughout the land. It has
been observed that the tendency toward
luxurious living is as noticeable in the
wel-to-do farming communities as in
the cities, and in the west as well as in
the east. It keeps pace with the intel
lectual development OF the people, and
is stimulated by the general literature
of the day. There is hardly daily or
weekly newspaper in the country that
has not. it's department of household
decoration and hints upon home-making
and housekeeping, and lectures, SER
mons, and even volumes are written
upon the subject by the ablest thinkers.

complains that some of the Jewish re-
ligious reformers are introducing Chris
tan features in the synagogue services.
In one synagogue the dead March in
Saul has been sung as an accompani-
ment to "Lecho Dobi." The Hebrew
Standard itself is DESTROYS that rabbis
should preach on Talmudic or Biblical
topics rather than on secular questions.

len by melting snow, river water is purer
and safer than In summer or fall Recent
experiments, however, have shown that
the number OF bacteria in the water sup
ply increases greatly while the SHOWS are
melting on the uplands. Ice also is known
to be frequent source of poisoning;
hence, while the water that is used may
be pure, the ice that is put into it often
renders it noxious.-N Y. Medical Journal.
Care of the Sick-Use a quiet, sunny,
second-story chamber with open fire or
crate stove. II there be furnace or tight
stove observe more care in ventilation.
Never close the pipe damper; when posi-
bic leave the stove open and keep upon it
dish OF water for moisture Remove
drapery, hangIngs, tablecloths and unnec-
essary furniture. Place the bed so that
sunlight may reach it. Shade the face by
a bit of dark cambria suspended from the
ceiling. Sunshine is medicine. Air the
room thoroughly, in winter one minute
twice daily; otherwise, according to
weather, protecting the patient With blank
ets-one being over the face-and a screen
or covered clothes-hOrse. Keep the tenn
perature at sixty-eight degrees. Ventilate
constantly by fitting the window frame
with two-inch strip of pine, shutting the
lower sash upon it. Air enters between
sashes and spouts upward, creating no
draught. Use perfectly clean dishes,
glasses, spoons, napkins and towels. Re-
move them from the room at once after
use. Provide an uncovered table for nee
essary spoons, glasses and medicines.
Keep all scrupulously clean and out of
sight. Oil the door hinges.
The attendant should dress in wash ma
te-ial, and have no bracelets or other
jingling matters; should wear slippers :;
avoid talking and permit none be quick,
but not impulsive nor awkward; should
not blunder against furniture nor drop
things. Should never whisper, but speak
quietly aloud; nor admit visitors, nor ex-
pertinent nor discuss with the doctor, nor
disobey him. He is responsible. Keep
hot water constantly ready. Provide
three flannel bags. quart size. Filled with
hot oats (heat in a pan, stirring mean
whIlel they are the best means of warm
ing the patient. Patients dislike odors,
but like the face and hands wiped with
bay rum. few bright flowers and
pictures, frequently changed, are cheering.
Feed the sick every two hours during
the night. Children drink without wax
ing. In any case, feed. This often saves
life. Reduce fever by frequent sponging
of the chest, back and limbs, one at a time,
under the clothing (dry as you go). and
give cold water and cracked ice freely.
Apolinaris water, iced, is blessing Give
drinks through bent tube or from bird
shaped cup. Milk and beef tea are gen.
orally allowable. Iced oranges and grapes
are graceful.

nut will be tasteless or bitter. Remove

part very carefully, keeping il as light as
possible. Spread upon plates, sprinkle
lightly with confectioners' sugar, and
place IN an oven hot enough to heat thor
oughly but not scOrch; then leave the

any desiccated cocoanut you can buy.
