advantage. He would share that
popularity and thus secure re-
election to the presidency. The
people would probably be reluct-
ant to change the administration
during a foreign war. But Mr..
Blaine did not want that war. He
saw clearly that it was not ne
cessity; that diplomacy could reach
peaceful result, just, honorable
and satisfactory to all concerned.
Hence he would not allow war to
be precipitated. He would rot
sacrifice peace to help the ambition
of Mr.. Harrison. As usual, he
comes out on top. And now that
Harrison's bubble has burst and
dropped him in the mud, he does
not appear in a position much to
be desired by an aspiring politi-
clan; and he doubtless realizes the
danger and folly of making bal
loon ascension on soap bubble.
Not the least humiliating cir
cumstance to us was the final out

our demand upon Chill for repara-
ton for the Valparaiso affair, in
which two sailors of Baltimore

1t has been estimated that 25, 900
horses are employed in the carrying trade
of London, that their value is Sc, 25o, 900,
and the cost is for food alone 81 600, 600
agar. A rule prevails of foraging the
horses on six cents an inch per week,
that is, horse costs as many quarters OF
dollar week as it stands hands high.
The heavier horses employed in the four
horse drays weigh nineteen hundredth
weight. The Great Western Railway
Company have 500 horses in ono new
stable at Paddington, in which they have
four floors one above another. the top
floor being almost as high as the hotel,
with lookout over the station roof. No
railway company buys horse after he is
seven years old. The Midland has 1850
horses, the Great Northern 1900, the
Great Western 100, the Southwestern
$50, the Southeastern 275, and the
Brighton 225. The London and North
western has only $50 horses, but Pick
ford & Co. who do most of the North
western business, have 1900 horses. Car
ter Patterson's, q delivery business, have
1000. The Railway News says thclna-
jority of London railway horses work
seventy hours a week. In Carter Pat.
terson's, only one parcel in 10000 it is
said, goes wrong. As rule the London
railway horse is bought at $500 and sold
alter ire wears work at $50 or 500.

A curious illustration of the important
results often produced in nature by APP
pareutly Insignificant causes is afforded
by the little islands on our Pacific coast,
little west OF Los. Angeles, CAL, states
the New York Sun. DR.. Gordon Yates
says that sheep have found the sue culent
heritage growing along the shores dainty
eating, and have destroyed most ofit. 1t
was these plants, however, that formerly
bound the sand to the beaches, and now
that they are gone the loosencd sands,
driven by northwest summer breezes,
has drifted over the islands, already
killed most Of the trees aud shrubs, and
the islands, in consequence, are rapidly
becoming uninhabitable. As the resi-
dents cannot abolish the wind or the
sand, it-may be necessary to Danish the
sheep to save San Miguel, Santa Rosa.
and the other once veriant islands from
complete desolation.

A cloth wet in hot water is sometimes

that the principle is to expand the neck

With hot water the latter is often heated

REsronINa MAHoaANr.

Mahogany bends itself with special
blindness to the restoring process, now
so much in vogue. The oldest and
most defaced piece Of mahogany furni-
ture can be made to look not ouly as well.
but even better than some of the new
furniture Of the present, inasmuch as the
wood is improved by age. For the
purpose powdered pumice- stone is EN-.
ployed to take off all the old polish and
leave the wood in the natural state.
Have at hand vessel of cold water.
with the powdered pumice in conven-
lent wide shallow dish. Use an old towel
or other stout cloth. Dip it in the water,
wiring out thoroughly and then dip in
the pumice dust, which must be rubbed
forcibly upon the furniture and into all
headings, dwellings and carvings until
every touch OF the old polish is removed,
and the wood presents an unsightly ap-
pearance. If this result be not effected
with one rubbing with the pumice, re-
peat it until it is effected. Then wash
off the piece of furniture through several
waters, or until every grain of the pun
ice dust is removed. When dry apply
one or two coats of fine coach yarnish.
The vanishing must be done carefully,
with neither too light nor too heavy a
brush, and with neither too great nor
too chary an expenditure of the varnish.
The result of this restoring process for
defaced furniture is source of delight
to all prudent and economical house
wives. New York Commercial Adver-

FIRST SERVICES
In the New Clifford Chapel.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER.
The first regular service will be held in
the new Clifford chapel at the hospital
Sunday, July II, at o'clock. The service
is very simple and brief, and intended pri-
marily for the benefit of the patients, nurs-
es and others who are unable to attend
church. The chapel, however, is large
and commodious, aud all friends of the
hospital will be welcome to these services
so long as it does not interfere with the
general purpose.
The religious services are carried on
gratuitously by the neighboring churches.
The Howard avenue Congregational church
has the third Sunday in each month. 9th
ers have it on other days. The patients
like to see the town people, and a good
congregation always makes service more
enjoyable.
One suggestion might well be made in
this connection. There is no suitable mu-
steal instrument in this fine new chapel,
and no way of getting one, save by the
generosity of friends. Will not some per
son accept this invitation to furnish the
Clifford chapel with suitable instrument
