his antagonist from his side and hurled
the beast ten feet away in 4 bunch of
grass, but 1t was back again in an in

great wounds in the elephants body.

Not Hathe.
They NAV say it is because it is so

that they really do not care for bath
ing, vet the real truth of the matter is
that many girls stay out of the water
because Their vanity will not permit
them to malst show of themselves, for,
even To put it mildly. this is what they
do when they have once received an
embrace from Father Ncpturc. Ali the
talk about the woman enjoying the
bath in order To show her figure is nom

There can be no real vanity about the
girl who goes genuinely into the water
and comes out of the water with bangs
unbung. stockings bagging at the
toes and her suit dripping piece
of anything but dry goods, without
form or comeliness. She may look
very charming if she doesn't go near
the water, but if she is really a bathcr
she can not expect to he beautiful after
the first dip, whereas the pretty sister

shoes and white gown, Il dainty parasol

can smile complacently when the drip

Washing silk stockings.

The proper washing of silk stockings
is matter of moment, now that they
are commonly worm. White silk stock
ingS should hc washed i'm n strong lather
made of CASTLE soap or any good white
soap and warm water. Lay the stock
ings in the lather and rub the soiled
spots gently with the hands. Then
rinse them very thoroughly to free them
from all soap. Wiring them dry in n
cloth, turning them wrong side out,
When they are almost dry stretch and
rub them in the hands to make them
smooth and bring them In shape. but
do not iron them. Black stockings may
he washed in the same way, but should
be kept separate from white stockings
in the washing. Some people go so fa r
as to rub their stockings when they are
dry with a cold iron. always making
the passes one way to make them
smooth and glossy. Ii is a great mis-
tahe. however. to iron any stockings.
1t always makes an ugly crease down

DAYS OF SMALL THINGS.
Weak Efforts that Have Grown to Mighty
Helps.

Helps.
Long before the revolution n young
printer in Philadelphia, when he had
taken off his working apron at night,
used to sit poring over his dozen of old
volumes by freight. He soon knew
them by heart and hungercd for more.
But books were costly and he had but
little money.
lie had eight or ten cronies, young
men who like himself were eager for
knowledge. Ranging his books on n
shelf, he invited his friends to do the
same that each might have the benefit
of them all.
Ben Franklin thus laid the founda-
ton of the first circulating library, and
now one of the largest in this country.
Thirty years ago a kindly German
pastor, moved to pity by the condition
of the homeless orphans in the city in
which he lived took three of them into
his own home, appealing to Christians
for aid to feed and clothe them. and To-
educate them into useful, good citizens.
Three great orphan asylums in diff
ferent cities of the west are the result
of this little effort.
a good woman in Philadelphi. twen-
ty odd years ago, asked two or three of
her friends to join her in renting lit
tie room where they could meet occa-
sionally to drink q cup of tea, and con-
suit together how to help other women
whose lot in the world was harder than
their own.
Out of that little room has grown the
stately New Century club with its col
lateral guilds, classes, and clubs of
workingwomen. which have helped and
strengthened many thousands.
Many readers who live in inland
towns are bewildered when they visit
the cities by the great libraries, hos
pitfalls, associations for charity, educa-
tion or mutual aid, and wish hopeless
ly they had the same helps to broader
and higher life in their own homes.
Let them begin with a little effort,
and persist in their good work. Some
good will come from every attempt of
this kind. The most firmly grounded
institutions are those which grew out
of poverty slowly, and were not built
to order.-Iouth's Companion.

The Force bill scare is killed in Ala
bama. The dense Negro vote in the
black belt counties went almost solid
for Gov. Jones, while nearly all the
white counties of the state went for
Kolb, the peoples party candidate.
Two years ago, Jones was elected by
90, 900 majority, this time by less than
10. 900 majority. The democrats must
have used bank of money and river
of whisky, and have done some very
free counting of ballots when they car
ry by big majority counties having five
Negroes to one white man.
Democracy, seeing that the whites
were deserting the party, like drown

gladly seized hold of the Negro TO save
the party from utter defeat
We are glad to see this sway OF votes
Let the Negro go into the democratic
party and this transfer will work a
beautiful change in southern politics
Negroize southern democracy and that
old bc-drunken party will die the death
