HOW TO TREAT cHAMoIs SKINS.

Considering what useful thing a
chamois skin is, it is astonishing that
there is so much Ignorance as to the
proper way of keeping it in order and
lengthening its term of service. Cham
ois skin should never be left in water
after being used, but should be wrung
out and hung up to dry, being spread
out carefully, so as to leave no wrin-
kles. They should not be used to
wipe off colors, as paint stains form
hard spots, and it makes the skin wear
out sooner.
Chamois was never intended to wipe
the face and hands with, which makes
the skin become greasy. Never put a
chamois skin into warm water; any
thing above lukewarm water will curl
it up, making it become thick, tough
and useless. To bring back chamois
that has been ruined by grease or
paint, or used as a towel until it re-
sembles dirty old rag, the following
is recommended: Take bucket of
clean water which has been made fair
ly but not too strong with ammonia !;
soak the skin in it over night, and next
morning rinse it out in pure water,
after which use pure white CASTLE
soap and water freely. The whole op-
GRAFTON, aside from the soaking, need
take no longer than quarter of an
hour, and it makes the skin in reality
better than it was before, having freed
it from impurities. New York Mer

EDUCATION OF cows.

Is there such thing as educating
COWS to be rapid mixers? And can
all COWS be educated thus? asks the
Farming World. When boy the
writer worked on dairy farm, the
proprietor of which had the reputation
of being rapid milker. He broke in
n number of heifers each year, and al
ways MIXED these himself. His claim
was that it was this early training
largely that made the difference in the
time required for milking. His method
was simply to begin milking as soon
as seated, and continue rapidly and
uninterruptedly until all the milk was
drawn from the udder, and to do no
stripping. The last part of the milk
was sometimes drawn by pressing from

That was touching story told in

The Maoris behaved like men and

COLD BRIDLE BITS.

During the bitter, cold weather in
winter much suffering is thoughtlessly
inflicted on horses by putting cold
bride bits into their mouths. If the
person who does this will apply his
tongue to piece of iron on a frosty
morning he will understand at once
what the suffering to the poor brutes
is. To slightly warm the bits before
putting them into the horses mouth
would require only a small expendi-
ture of labor. This can be done by
rubbing them with blanket or other
cloth moment or two if other means
of warming are not at hand. The BEN
eficial results in the gentleness of the
animal will amply compensate it

BANKING UP THE HOUSE FOR WINTER.

BANKING UP THE HOUSE FOR WINTER.
In exposed, bleak situations farmers
and others find it very beneficial to
bank up the north and west sides of
their dwellings, as means of keeping,
not only the frost out of the cellar,
but adding warmth to the rooms ad-
joining the banking. More particu-
larly is this advisable in old houses
that have not been provided with a
covering of building paper, and in
which the cellar wall is more or less
dilapidated and open for frosty air to
enter. A cleanly plan is to drive
down stakes eighteen inches from the
wall, attaching boards to foot or
more in height, filling in the space
with clean straw, hay or even corn
stalks, which should be firmly trodden
down and the whole covered with loose
boards. This looks better than half
rotten manure piled along the wall
for the chickens to scratch away.
There is also no staining of the
painted surface with which it NAV
come in contact. American Agricul-
turist.

IN his message to the Legislature
on February IL, 1891, Mr.. Buchan-
an, then governor of the state
of Tennessee, in approving the
Dortch election law expressed
himsely as follows: "The al
most universal verdict is that the
present election laws are a success
in freeing the elective franchise
from corruption. The action of all
the states, to which my attention
has been directed to commend the
successful operation of the laws to
take steps toward adopting them.
1t should be our aim TO strengthen
them by removing any defect, and
removing just grounds for criti-
cism. would suggest that the
Dortch law be extended to all pla-
ces where registration applies under
existing laws" A stronger indorse-
ment of law is rarely seen than
the above reproduction, and yet the
principal reason assigned by the
pOpulites for fusing with the repub-
licans is their hatred of the Dortch
law, which, at -one time, was SO
heartily commended and sanctioned
by members of that legislature who
have since severed their relations
with democracy, and are now advO
eating the vagaries of populism. The
array of Endorsements of that Law
by many of the leaders of the popu
list party is too strong for them t.
now assign as reason for coales
cling with republicans-their aver
sion to the same. The truth il
since their conversion, the party they
once admired they now hate, anC
the republican party which wa
once an object of enmity, they have
taken into their bosoms, and ar
now aiding it in the attempt t
overthrow the party to which the!
are indebted for the privilege of vo

The Entertainment at the

Hi0ht.

The entertainment given in the OPP
era house on last Tuesday evening by
the ladies of the M. E. Church
was an enjoyable as well as profita-
bic one. The room was comforta-
bly, filled, and judging from the
many hearty applauses, the program
was well rendered.
In the old time quilting Rev.
J. III. Felts as ''JOhn" and Miss So
phie Sloan as ''Sarah" could not
have been equalled by the real per-
sonages themselves; while the love
ly maids, as they came in one by
one, if they could only hope to be
half as attractive ten years hence as
they appeared to be on last Tues
day evening should long for the time
to arrive. Misses Kittie Newbern
Nina Campbell, and Lucie Harda-
way were the typical giggling girls.
,Mr. Cook, from the Western
Hospital, proved to be an inimita-
BILE darkey preacher, delighting his
appreciative audience with IN APP
pie ''disquisition."
The temperance play was too
true to nature. Where each one acted
his part so well, it would be unfair to
single out any one in particular. The
moral to be drawn from the play
was a wholesome one.
Between the different acts sweet
strains of music were furnished by
the Reynolds band.
The proceeds of the concert were
thirty dollars.
