Dust Settlers.

With a little care the dirtiest carpet can
be swept without raising much dust by
placing outside the door otethe room to be
swept a pail of clear, cold water. Wet your
broom, knock it against the side of the
bucket to get out all the drops, sweep a
couple Of yards and rinse off the broom
again. Continue this until you have gone
over tho entire surface. If the carpet is very
much soiled, the water should be changed
several times. Slightly moistened Indian
meal is also used by the Oldest housewives.
Snow, if not allowed to melt, is also excel
lent as a dust settler. -EXchange.

An -Extemnorixed Dado.

A capital way of making a hastily con-
struoted frieze or dado for any eXtempo-
rized ballroom at holiday time is to run a
rope around the top of the wall If for a
friezc, or about ~ feet from the floor If
for a wainscot effect. Then with turkey
red or gayly colored paper muslin gather
a couple of folds together and hold them
to the rope ut regular intervals with
clothespins that have previously been gild-
ed. The effect of this arrangement is very
decorative and has the merit of being easy
to put up and take down.-New York Trib.

EloWera For the Invalid.

When choosing flowers to send to an in
valid, select those that have a very delicate
perfume, and that are as suggestive of life
and health as possible. White flowers, al
though most beautiful, lend neither color
nor brightness to the sickroom, and to a
mind weakened by sickness are apt to be
suggestive of death, while those of a bright
crimson or a deep yellow will almost always
please and crafty the convalescent. When
ordering the flowers, ask yourforist to send
long stemmed ones; they arrange so much
more prettily than those that are cut with
short stems.-Ladies' Home Journal.

A clear point for woman not versed in
discriminating imitation from real lace,
and the inability Is by no means so repre-

"In national convention ten years ago

true To. day The State is three times larger
than Massachusetts,. In West Virginia
there is the largest nail mill in the world.
There are invested in the industries of

"In 1880 the Big Injun' sand was not
touched to-day the oil output is 625,000
barrels per month-the second oil-produc-
ing State. The rich Gordon and Berea
sands only touch in two places. The Sis
tersville field is to-day the greatest oil-pro-
ducing field. In 1880 we produced l.4O4.-

Fetching Hts Debtors.

P. S. Eustis, general passenger agent of
the Burlington road, has had an extensive
experience of that class of the community,
the members of which are always striking
their friends for the loan of a $40 bill. Look
ing through the Sunday Post Dispatch the
other day, his eye caught sight Of some YER
ses which at once appealed to his sympa-
thies, says the Chicago Post They ran in
this wise:
"If should die tonight.
And you should come to my cold corpse and
say,
Weeping and heartsick err my lifeless clay
If / should die tonight,
And you should come in deepest grief and
woe
And say, Here's that $40 that owe.
might arise in my great white cravat
And say, What's that2
"IfI should die tonight,
And you should come to my cold corpse and
kneel,
Clasping my bier to show the grief you feel
/ say if | should die tonight,
And Won should come to me and there and
then
Just even hint about paying that ten,
/ might arise the while
But I'd drop dead again ~
"Well, now, that might be useful to me
sometime" he thought to himself. "At all
events it's good. It's worth keeping. I'll
cut it out That's my case exactly" So
thinking, he cut the piece out, read it over
again and was about folding it up to put it
in his pocket when friend entered the Office.
Look here" he said, 1--WE got a good
thing here. Come here and tell me what
you think of it"
"What have you got? Let's see it," the
friend replied, and forthwith he was read
ing the lines. Mr.. Eustis watched him as
he did so, expecting him to burst into
laugh and express his appreciation of the
force of the doggerel. Instead of that a
sickly kind of smile broke over his face
and in rather dry tone of voice he remark
ed as he handed me the clipping, "Yes,
that's very good" and changed the subject
as abruptly as possible.
"What's the matter with -" thought
Mr.. Eustis TO himself. 81 thought he was
one who could see ajoke. Why, | declare,
have put my foot in it badly. | had for
gotten all about that"
An explanation of this little soliloquy was
to be found in a note he received by next
mornings mail. 1t ran this way:
"Dear Eustis-Pease find enclosed s25 in
payment of the sum you were kind enough
to lend me at the club some time ago. /
did not intend to retain it so long, but mon
ey is tight these days, you know. Please do
not die tonight"
"Well, if that's the way the thing works
I'll try it on with few more fellows"
thought Mr.. Eustis to himself as he put the
clipping more carefully away for future use.

Ho,r Ia Res.It Is Acc0Mnted F0r.

Hon. VIM. L. Wilson on the result oil the
recent election said to correspondents OF
the Wheeling Register Democrats GER
tainly have cause to congratulate themselves
that what occurred yesterday did not occur
last year or a year hence. The chief cause
of the Republican successes was undouot-
edly the business depression, for which the
voters. in their discomfort and desire to strike
At somebody, held the party in power re-
sponsible. This always happens in times
of depression, and so it is fortunate for US
that the blow comes now, when we are not
much hurt by il. rather than yearfrom now,
when a new Congress has to be elected
Another cause of Republican success was
the disappointment among candidates ior
Office under the federal government who
failed 10 get what they wanted. This IS an
other thing which invariably weakens the
party in power al the beginning Of a new
administration and which in the present in
stance has made itself felt rather earlier
than usual. Here, again, however, the Dem'
ocrats are fortunate, for his sense of disap-
pointment has now largely spent itself, and
will be but slightly felt in the important
elections Of next year.
"By that time" Mr. Wilson continued,
"the Democrats will have put their policies
into practical effect, the country will have
recovered from the present depression, and
will again be fairly prosperous, and then
there will be very different story to tell cleo
ton day. There is no good reason why
Democrats should be alarmed or discourage
ed bv yesterdays election. The only Dem
oeratie State that went Republican was New
York. and there the issues were purely local,
and Democratic defeat was due to too much
machine rule. That the party is not dsin-
tegrating is shown by the gratifying victory
in Virginia, which, all things considered
NAV be taken as an Offset to the disappoint-
ments elsewhere"
Senator Faulkner attributes the election
slump 10 a variety Of causes. He said "l'
WAS due to the Democratic division on the
silver question; the uncertainties in refer
ence TO a change in the tariff, to some ex'
tent affecting the business activity of the
country; the opinion that had been incul
Gated in the minds Of the old soldier ele
ment that the Democratic party was hostile
70 pension legislation, and the dissatisiac
ton which always follows the Inauguration
of new administration in the distribution
of Federal patronage"

Though recognizing the necessity for re-

made, the authorities of the Baltimore aud

these trains, and they will be continued as
heretofore. This conclusion is creditable TO
the en,erprising and accommodating au-

Congressman Bryan, Of Nebraska, is que.
ted as saying that if the returns had any
political significance they Indicated that the
Democratic party in the northeastern States
made the heaviest losses where the Repre-
sentatives are opposed to silver That may
be true, but as the constituents Of the afore-
said representatives, were also, without doubt,
practically unanimous in opposition to free
silver, the losses can hardly be attributed to
the money questiOn-unless, as is highly
probable, the irritating delay Of the Senate
in fulfilling the promises Of the Democratic
platform had something to do with them
On The other hand, in Virginia, where the
silver question was made an issue in the
campaign, Col. O'Ferrall, who had voted for
repeal, received the largest plurality ever
given to a candidate for the governorship
of the State.

The Riffians, who have caught the worlds
attention now by their conflict with the gov
eminent of Spain, have another and a
stronger claim to our interest in the fact
that they furnished the name for the tariff,
about which we are now so exercised. From
their low-lying reef like island of Tdrifa,
in the Straits of Gibraltar, they were long
wont to levy enforced tribute on all merchant
ships that passed by, and it was so that the
name tariff came to be used for the tribute
that favored classes have succeeded in levy
ing on their less favored felow-citizens in
the United Staies.-Baltiuaore Sun.
