TOMS BROOK ITEMS.

Mr.. EDITOR:-
Not having seen anything
from this prosperous little town for some
time l thought possibly few items might
be of interest to some Of your many
readers. Asian very poor cOrrespor-
dent hope you will overlook the manner
in which they are presented to You.
We'll. the holidays are over ard every
one has given mp the season of frolic and
turkey and gone to their respective works
in earnest. There were several weddings
here during that season.
The past week has been pretty cold and
several of our citizen are getting ice
which is of a good quality.
The juvenile population have been
taking advantage of the snow by coast
ing every night until near midnight.
This has been the most unhealthful
winter known here for many years. At
one time there were scarcely well persons
enough to take care Of the sick, and
learn that onr resident physician, DR.. j.
NJ. Brown. prescribed IN one day for AZ
patients in ard around the town. We
are glad to learn that the health of the
community is improving at this time.
Mrs. Amanda Goodman, of this place
received letter on last Saturday inform
ing her of the very dangerous condition
of her soa who is in Wythville, Tenn. Ht
is suffering with typhoid fever. Mrs. G
started this morning to visit her son.
Hope she may find him improved.
Mr.. A. Rosenberger and Mr.. John Bow
man each lost a valuable young horse il
the last couple of weeks. They diet
very suddenly, cause unknown.
The workmen have nearly completed
blasting the rock for the new switch a
the depot here, which will be a decided
Improvement when completed. Th'
Brook is still booming, and as soon a
warm weather comes building will b'
resumed. We learn that many new
buildings are TO be erected at once.
The work on the new bridge at the S
E. end of town over the Brook has gon
into winter quarters we think. Now !
the season to push it as farmers and other
are not so busy.

in challenging this right to appeal is
entirely un-American and alien. IL is

was forced through house which bad

under the Reed dictatorship.
In protesting against the discussloS

Their that discussion should be aban-
doned Sin the face of the fact that IL

IL is true that the veto of most rad
zeal and bigoted partisan is in the way
Of reform at present, but every time a
falsehood is exposed and a wrong de-
nounced, something is accomplished.
Everyone who knows the Mckinley
bill knows that it cannot stand after IL
has been exposed and it's manifold
frauds and follies made plain to the
people. Even IL the odds against re.
form were tenfold greater, something
can be accomplished, everything can
be accomplished, by keeping the
truth constantly before the people. No
plea for silence that the author and
beneficiaries of the bill can make can
be entertained. There can be no ces-

trusts and other conspiracies which
have been formed under it, and sends
to the republican senate and president

veto of the republican president will
only make more certain the repeal Of
the bill as whole.
1t is perfectly natural that Mr. Nc
Kinley should oppose free speech and
wish to choke the discussion of this
measure, but however keenly he may
feel the exposure of it, his desire for
silence cannot be gratified. The right
of the poorest as of the richest of the

through which the earnings of the

The New Long Veil.

The novelty. in millinery is a long
veil of black figured lace, worn droop-
ing in front to the knee, or even to the
foot Of the skirt. 1t is a scarf of Chan
tilly or other French lace, with seal
loped edges, and is nearly a yard wide,
and more than two yards long. The
milliner drapes one end Of the veil over
the crown of large black felt round
hat, holding it there by twist of broad
black satin ribbon, six inches wide at
least, which is tied at the back in a
great bow, with loops and ends lying
fiat instead of standing high in the
familiar way. The veil then covers the
face, and is drawn under the chin To
meet in the back by bunch of small
plaits taken in each side; thence it
hangs straight down the front. This
unique veil is very becoming, and has
been adopted by fashionable women for
wearing with afternoon visiting toilets.

Sea sand az Soil.

1t is hard to think of anything more
barren, more destitute of fertility, than
sea-sand. In connection with some
studies of the chemistry of vegetable
production in the laboratory of Wes-
leyan university we have been growing
plants in just such sand, brought from
the shore of Long Island sound. To
divest it of every possible trace of ma
terial which the plants might use for
food except the sand itself, il was
carefully washed with water and then
heated. The young man who pre-
pared the sand for use, in his zeal to
burn out the last vestiges of extraneous
matter, heated the iron pots in which
il was calcined so hot that they almost
melted. The sand was put into glass
jars, water was added, and minute
quantities of chemical salts, which
plants take from the soil, were dis
solved in it. In the sand thus watered
and fortified dwarf-peas were grown.
Peas of the same kind were cultivated
by skillful gardener in rich soil of
n garden close by, and grew To n
height of about four feet, while those
in the sand with water and the minute
quantities of chemical salts reached a
height Of eight feet-7Century.

| To take mildew out of linen. wet
the fabric with soft water, rub it well
with white soap, then scrape some fine
chalk to powder and rub it well into
the linen. Then lay it out in the sun
shine, watching to keep it damp with
soft water Repeat the process the
next day, and in few hours the mil
dew will entirely disappear.
TO clean carpet with ox-gall use
about a gill of ox-gall to half a pailful
of water. Sweep the carpet well, or
beat it first, then apply the mixture
with soft brush. Wash off the lather
with cold water, changing it often, and
finally rub the carpet with soft cloth.

placed a small cube of prepared fuel,

The Shah of Ohio Wants to Muzzle the

The esteemed organs of mutual ra-
pine are sermonizing from the text
furnished them by Mr.. Mckinley when
he made the profound observation that
the Judgment of the people does not
approve the constant agitation of the
tariff issue in the face of the fact that
it can accomplish nothing"
Without stopping to consider the SER
mons, we will contine ourselves to the
text, which is sufficiently absurd to in
dicate the nature of the sermons on it
The only reliable way OF getting the
judgment of the people is through the
ballot box, aud as they have expressed
themselves there it was emphatically
in favor of continuing the exposure of
the crimes and follies of the Mckinley
bill until its repeal is forced. This is
what n majority of the people voting
since the passage of the bill have said
in every instance, but even II it were
otherwise, the right of appeal to the
majority would remain, and any mi
nority, however small, could go on in
the exercise of it, confident that in the
end right viii win in its appeal to the
