A woman never loses anything by
being real For woman to be ma

spect and love. She was created to
sway. not US men sway, by strong
physical powers, but in her own way
and by her more gentle qualities. A
natural woman is the gre test power
in the world. BY her very nature she
conquers, whether she be the wife of
an humble clerk or ten-tines mil

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

The gifts of God to our people dur
ing the past year have been SO album
dant and so special that the spirit of
devout thanksgiving awaits not call
but only the appointment of day,
when it may have a common express
sion. He has stayed the pestilence at
our door; he has given us more love
for the free civil institutions in the
creation of which his directing provi-
dence was so conspicuous; he has
awakened deeper reverence for law;
he has widened our philanthropy by a
call to succor the distress in other
lands: he has blessed our schools and
is bringing forward a patriotic and
God fearing generation to execute his
great and benevolent designs for our
country; he has given us great in
crease in material wealth and wide
diffusion of contentment and comfort
in the homes of our people; he has
given his grace to the sorrowing.
Wherefore, I, Benjamin Harrison,
president of the United States, do call
upon all our people TO observe, as we
have been wont, Thursday, the oath
day of this month of November, as
day of thanksgiving to God for his
mercies, and of supplication for his
continued care and grace.
In testimony whereof [ have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.

Editorial from
Providence, r. I. Daily Journal, Oct. n, 1892.
Not long ago an outcry was raised over the
adulteration of lard. 1t was alleged that cot
ton seed oil, suet, and common greases were
being mixed with hog fat for the purpose of
producing cheaper article. This stage of the
competition between the manufacturers of lard
seems to have passed, for the markete are off
ering housekeegerS and cooks a cheapen9d
grease similar in nature, but which frankly
comes out under name that is honest enough
to allay any suspicion of dection and adulter-
alton. Instead of being made from the flare
or leaves of hog fat, this substance has in it
cotton seed oil and suet, and so is called Cot
tolene. 1t received attention at the New York
food show, and was cooked into pie crust and
cTullers, and used for frying, before crowds
which tested the articles cooked. There is
nothing odoriferous or "hoggy'' about it, the
taste impaired to food cooked in it, of
winch 1t is an ingredient, is not fatty, and it
is held to be generally superior to lard for
shortlEg and frying purposes. Without crit
losing recommending the use of Cottolene
there is something pleasant in noting the sim.
certify OF the manufacture and sale of Cottolene
and in the suggestion that it neither pro-.
duces dyspepsia nor spoils compilations.

During the late Grand Army en-
lion old torn bank bills were present
ed at the Treasury Department to be
redeemed for fresh greenbacks or new
coin. This the government is always
ready to do, but as the expense of
sending the old bills from a distance
is considerable, those living in remote
places rarely avail themselves of the
privilege. Westinghouse themselves
who are quite fastidious about their
money, carry new bills in an envelope
without folding them, in order to
keep them crisp and clean.
1t will take a special train of four
teen cars to transport the ten logs
from which the fagpoles are to be
made for the Washington State build
ing al the Worlds Fair. Each log is
equal to the length of seven fat cars,
and by an ingenious arrangement of
raised block working on a pivot the
weight will come upon the two en- d
cars, those in the center being empty.
This is necessary in order to go around
curves in the road without breaking
either the logs or the cars. While the
empty cars curve around bend in the
track the pivots are also turned, thus
allowing the logs to retain the same
relative position to each other. When
the curve is passed the pivots again
throw the logs back to their original
position. Owing to their enormous
weight, two of the logs will have to
be loaded separ ately.

Farming is nearly at stand on account of
copious rains calling a halt in breaking
ground for planting. Fruit trees that

daughter of Judge Thomas J. Clayton
OF Delaware county, Pa, committed sui

years old, and had been married about
four years. For some time she had been

seemed bright and happy and kissed

which occurred to her some years ago,
together with constant brooding over
the marital troubles of her brother,

TRIED TO XIII A PRIEST
A Crazy Woman's Savage Assault Upo
the Rev. Father O'ConnelI.

PITTsBuRG, Pa, May 2.-Something
of a sensation WAS created on the street
in front of ST. Mary's Catholic Church,
Fort Washington, last night, by Mary
Cameron, a crazy woman, assaulting the
Rev. Father O'Connell with Ratchet.
The woman rushed at the priest as he
was entering the church and struck at
him with the Ratchet, but he warded
the blow and seized her by the arm.
She fought like tigress and tried her
utmost to kill him. Finding that ne
could not oyerpower her, Father O'Con-
nell drew revolver, but by this time
assistance arrived and the woman was
arrested.
1t seems that many years ago Mrs.
Cameron lost her property through liti-
CATION, and at that time priest testified
against her. The loss turned her brain
and she has had an antipathy to priests
ever since.
