FOR SLEEPLESS ONES.

From the New York World.
II you fear a sleepless night un-
dress in the dark. Light stimulates
and arouses the activities. Dark
ness is supposed to produce drowsi-
ness. Put some chopped ice in a
rubber bag and place it at the lower
extremity of the spine. This is par
ticularly quieting to the nerves. Do
not nse anything except a rubber
bag, or you will surely have damp
cloth and rheumatism by morning.
Do not use pillow. Relax every
muscle as far as it is possible. Sprawl
over the bed with arms and legs
stretched out. Take sponge bath
with tepid water just before going to
he'd.
Lie on your face instead of on
your back. That is the way babies
sleep AMI their methods are scarcely

TENNESSEE REPUBLICANS.

TENNESSEE REPUBLICANS.
Tennessee republicans nominated
II. Clay Evans, of Chattanooga, for
governor.
The platform deals mostly with
state issues. 1t, however, declares
for system of protective duties,
adjusted so that every American
resource can be developed by Amer
lean labor, and opposes returning to
the wildcat system of banking. The
financial plank follows:
"The American people, from ira
dition and interest, favor bimetal-
lism, and the republican party
demands the use of both gold and
silver as standard money, with such
restrictions and under such provis.
ions to be determined by legislation
as will secure the maintenance OF the
parity of values of the metals, so
that the purchasing and debt paying
power Of the dollar, whether silver,
gold or paper, shall be at all times
equal; and we are in favor of a cir
culating medium of volume sufficient
to meet the demands of business and
commerce"
Opposition is expressed to the
election, registration, poll tax and
uniform ballot laws, and the demo
cratic party is arraigned for extrav-
agance.

"THINGS.u
From Harper's Bazaar.

From Harper's Baxar.
There are a few things in the
English language of such compre-
hensive appropriateness as the word
"things." We put on and take off
"things." We put down and
take up "things." We walk over
''things," and pick "things" up,
and put "things" away. We love
"things'' and hate "things," and
consider "things' and think about
"things." We look beyond the
"things" seen to the "things" not
seen. And these are "things" tenn
poral, and those are "things''ieternal
And each and every one of these
"things" has different significance
and belongs to a different class.
There are material t'things'' among
them, and immaterial "things."
They are physical and mental; OF
heaven and earth; of time and of
eternity. A word Of no special def :
milton, it designates everything in
turn. For it may be anything. 1t
may be nothing.
1t is a facile snare to the slipshod
writer. Dilating on the beauties of
"everything," this "lovely thing"
or that "exquisite thing" tempts
him to rest satisfied with the yield
ing expression which saves search
for a more specific word. 1t is the
ready recourse of the shallow clat-
terer, who calls her friend "sweet
thing" az frequently as she speaks
of her enemy as "spiteful thing"
1t is the refuge Of the lazy, the neg
ligent, the ignorant talker Of any
age, to whom the proper names OF
articles are superfiuous SO long as
the word "things" exist in the die
tionary.
So universally misused, abused,
and overworked is this general term
that the proper thing under the cir
cumstances would be 80 far as posi- =
BILE to ignore 1t in our own CONVEX
sation and in the talk Of other peo-
pie, and to insist that ideas be con
veyed by words which mean exactly
what is intended to be expressed,
instead OF by word which means
anything or nothing at all.

DELAWARE REPUBLICANS.

DELAWARE REPUBLICANS.
The state convention nominated
j. r. Harvill for governor and Rev.
Jonathan Willis for congress.
The platform adopted reaffirms a
belief in the doctrine of protection
to American industry; favors laws
to protect American labor from the
evils of unrestricted foreign immi
grafton; denounces the tariff bill
just passed by congress as cowardly
makeshift that will reduce the wages
of American workmen and continue
the present business depression; de-
nounces the income tax feature OF
the bill approves reciprocity; favors
bimetallism, gold and silver cur
rency, equalized by conditions fixed
by international agreement, and de-
claring that full national prosperity
will not be restored until silver is
restored to its full debt paying basis !;
denounces the bill to authorize the
state taxation of national currency !;
denounces the national democratic
administration as incompetent to
conduct the affairs of the nation at
home and abroad; favors the extern
sion of our foreign commerce, and
the increase of the American navy {;
indorses the calling of constitu-
utional convention and warmly
indorses Senator Higgins.

IN CONGRESS.
Both houses adopted on Friday a
joint resolution to adjourn Tuesday,
August 28th, at 2 O'Clock.
Both houses also passed resolutions
to adjourn from Friday to Monday,
thus ending all possibility of more
than one days more work before the
close of the session.
No business was transacted the
last week. Adjournment was taken
from day to day awaiting the presi-
dents action on the tariff bill.

EXACTING WOMAN.

From the Courier-JOurnal.
A demure- looking little woman
entered drug store in the central
part Of the city last evening and
asked the clerk II they kept postage
stamps. When answered in the
affirmative she pulled small pocket
book from her pocket, and after
looking through 1t, she said she
wanted Ave cents worth. The clerk
smiled and said that he could not
give her Ave cents worth, as they
kept only two-cent stamps. She
picked up the nickel, which she had
laid on the counter, and started
toward the door. She stopped
before she had reached 1t, and looked
around at the clerk, and said:
"Well, you people in this store are
the most unaccommodating persons
I ever saw, and I will never buy
another thing here as long as live,
and I'll tell everybody in the neigh
borhood about you, too" With that
she rushed out and slammed the
screen door. The last seen OF her
she was walking rapidly up tbs
street. When. she had left the
clerk said that was only an example
Of what took place every day,
"Why," he said, "a woman came
into the store the other day and
complained that we did not put
enough mucilage on our stamps, snd
then got perfectly furious when
told her that we did not make their
ourselves. III tell you," he con-
tinusd, sssuch women are awfully
! hard to get along with.n

DEMOCRATS.

CALIFORNIA DEMOCRATS.
California democrats nominated a
full state ticket.
The platform indorses the admin
istration of Cleveland; declares
devotion to the principles of the
national democratic platform of 1892,
and congratulates the people upon
the fact that Notwithstanding the
open opposition Of the republican
party and the conduct Of a few pre-
tended democrats a substantial
measure of tariff reform has been
effected"
The financial plank Of the platform
favors the retirement of all gold
coins and paper currency below the
denomination of $40, and the
reopening of the mints to the coinage

LORD coLERIDGE's SUCCESSOR.

\
1t is notable that the new lord
chief justice of England, Lord Rus
sell Killowen, or Sir Charles Russell,
as he is generally known, is both an
lrishman and a Roman Catholic.
He is the first Roman Catholic to
hold the position since the time of
William OF Orange, and he was the
first Roman Catholic attorney gem
eral since the reign of Elizabeth.
His ability before the Parnell COM
mission will be well remembered,
and he represented England at the
time of the arbitration of the Ber-
ing Sea case.

AMERICAN BI- -METALLISTS,

fh."'N'''NhAN ID AhIi h-LlSlS.
The American Bi metallic League
held conference in Washington,
and determined on an active cam
paign. A declaration was adopted
recounting the repeal of the silver
purchase law and establishment of
the single gold standard, which has
been followed by increasing depres-
sion that gold has increased in
value; industries are paralyzed; I;
labor is precarious; business is un-
improved and debtors bankrupt. 1t
is asserted that there is no hope of
relief until the double standard of
l6 to l is restored and that the
money question is the supreme issue
before the country. Voters are
urged to make this issue paramount
to all other considerations in the
election of state legislatures, con-
gressmen and president.

PARTIAL WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Attorney General Standish, of
North Dakota, has decided that "any
woman having the qualifications that
would entitle her to vote if she were
man will be entitled to vote for
superintendent of public instruction
in this state at the forthcoming state
election" and has advised county
auditors and sheriffs to provide in
each precinct cheaply constructed
separate boxes to receive their votes.
Where these boxes are not provided
the judges of elections have author
ity to provide such boxes. They
have no right to debar the women
from voting nor to refuse their bal
lots where the women are eligible.
