All sorts Of remedies for the fly
nuisance crop up with the return oil
the hot weather, but the fashioned
cure, which is advocated by a con-
temporary. is hard to beat. A house
keeper says she never uses window
screens; they shut out too much air,
and keep the flies in the house as
much as they keep them out. Long
ago she watched her grandmother
putting punches OF lavender flowers
around to keep the flies away, but
while recognizing the point of that
method, she takes a simpler way.
Buying five cents worth of oil of Law
ender at the drug store, she mixes it
with an equal quantity Of water. This
mixture is put into a common glas,
atomizer and sprayed around the
room wherever flies are apt to congre-
gate, especially in the dining room,
where it is plentifully sprinkled over
the table linen. To most people the
scent is peculiarly fresh and grateful
but to flies it is especially disagreeable
and they will never venture in its
neighborhood.

What Shall We Eatr

A pamphlet issued under the aus
pices of the United States Department
of Agriculture, says:
A quart of milk, three-quarters of q
pound OF moderately fat beef, sirloin
steak, for instance. and five ounces Of
wheat -four, all contain about the
same amount of nutritive material,
but we pay different prices for them
and they have different values for
nutriment. The milk comes nearest
10 being a perfect food. 1t contains
all the different kinds of nutritive ma
terial that the body needs. Bread
made from the wheat flour will sup
port life. 1t contains all the neces-
sary ingredients for nourishment, but
not in the proportions best adapted
for ordinary use. A man might live
on beef alone, but it would be a very
one.sided and imperfect diet. But
meat and bread together make the
essentials of healthy diet. Such are
the facts of experience. The advanc.
ing science of later years explains
them. This explanation takes into
account, not simply quantities of meat
and bread and milk and other ma.
terial which we eat, but also the
nutritive ingredients or nutrients
which they contain.
The chief uses of food are two: Tc

pair its wastes; to yield heat to keeI

BEATS THE FERRIS WHEEL.
A Hinge Steel and Iron Fabric now
Being Erected In London.

Being Erected In London.
New York World.
Some one gigantic feature seems to
be a necessity OF every modern exposi-
ton. Thus the Effel tower was the
sensational structure at Paris in 1889
and the Ferris wheel at the Worlds
Fair, while the French engineers pro-
pose for the Paris exhibition now in
preparation deep hole to be dug and
which it is proposed to extend until
an unbearable heat is met with in the
bowels of the earth.
The wheel which they are erecting
in London will, however, be much
larger than the Ferris wheel, and it is
now very near completion. The top
of the Chicago wheel was 25S feet
above the earth. The London wheel
will attain to a height of 800 feet, and
from its top the passengers in the
small carriages which are TO be carried
around its periphery will secure a
magnificent view Of London and it's
environs.
Recreation towers are being erected
on the supports OF the wheel. A ball
room will crown each tower at. the
axis, and there will be three restau.
rants built one above the other, where
the English visitors, so fond of eating
and drinking. may enjoy themselves
and watch the immense wheel 20
round. Access to these restaurants
will be gained by two funicular''
railways. These will be really n.y.
draulic elevators. and they will slide
up and down the two legs of the
wheel.

The College Yell.
Christian Advocate.

A foghorn is not musical, but is use
full in its place. Out of its place it is
annoying. The College yell may be a
good thing when vociferated at a proper
time and place, but outside of its ap-
propriate surroundings it is a nuisance.
A few days ago the writer heard a
performance of this kind effectively
rebuked. 1t was in the crowded car of
a railroad train.
There were four students in the
company. We do not know their
college, we are glad to say. At a way
station one of them was leaving the
train and in doing so passed along the
platform TO the open car windows
where his comrades were sitting, when
the quartette split the air, and the ears
of the passengers, with some sort OF un-
ineligible jargon.
The sound had scarcely died away
when q gentleman, without looking up
from his paper, asked in singing tones,
" Who's sick?"
1t was slang, of course, but like
many an expression OF its class it was
pointed and effective. The passengers
were convulsed with laughter, and the
young collegians looked somewhat
disturbed. They had been rebuked
and felt it, and the people said, " Good" )"

SCARCITY OF SMALL CHANGE.
The Experience OF a Tacoma Busi-
ness Man.

Scarcely day goes by that some
prominent merchant in the city, and
frequently several, are heard to COM
plain of the lack of change and Of the
effort that is required to secure few
dollars in silver or small currency or
gold.
To-day q well.known Pacific ave-
nue. dealer gave his porter 5000 in $40
pieces with instructions to go to the
bank and get silver and small gold
pieces ($5 pieces if possible) for the
whole of it. An hour later the re-
porter returned with nine OF the
original ten 500 gold pieces still in his
possession. He said he had called at
the principle banks in the city, where
he asked for change in small gold and
silver, but could not get it.
His statement was at first doubted
but he enumerated the banks he had
called at, beside several large business
houses, the cashier at each place hav-

her errand led her past a fashionable
hotel, in front of which she recognized
several cronies OF her infatuated swain.
A brilliant thought occurred to her,
and waiting for the young man to catch
up with her she turned demurely and
sweetly and pityingly held out few
pennies to the ardent and now hope
full youth, with the remark, My poor
man, am sorry for you, but this all l
can spare"
A shout OF laughter greeted the
sally, and the young man has not only
ceased to follow the girl, but has been
forced to cut half his acquaintances.

A STORY OF A. T. STEWART.
IL True, Ii illustrates an ExtraOr-
dinary Phase OF His Character.

CHlcdBO hcCOru.
A story is told illustrating the de-
termination OF the late A. +. Stewart
not to allow any tender consideration
or any sympathetic influence to inter-
fere with the accomplishment of his
ambition, which was to build up the
greatest business house in America.
Stewart was for many years the mer-
chant prince Of New York. He ex-
erted an influence that was felt in
every part of this country and was
recognized abroad. What he achieved
was not more by means OF the genius
of shrewdness than by means OF the
genius of pertinacity. Stewart culti-
waited the germ of seifishness that was
in him-cultivated it calculatingly
and determinedly, as We see by this
little story that is told of him:
Upon entering his store one morn.
ing he sought out the man having the
hiring and discharging of cash.boys.
"Mr. Libby" said he, who is that
handsome, bright-eyed little boy stand
ing by the counter yonder?"
His name is Mason, Charley Ma
son, sir" answered Mr.. Libby. "He
is indeed handsome little fellow, and
he is as bright and as well-mannered
as he is handsome. He is the most
attentive and most promising boy we
have in our employ"
"Yes, l thought as much," said
Stewart grufiiy. Discharge him at
once"
"Wby, Mr.. Stewart" exclaimed
Libby, almost paralyzed with sstonish-
ment." you surely cannot mean it?"
Discharge him at once, I say" re-
peated Stewart sternly. 81 am get
ting too much interested in that boy.
I find myself stopping and talking
with him as come in or 60 out of
the store. His personality interests
me-his candor, his intelligence, his
enthusiasm, his beauty. l find myself
thinking Ct him after reach my desk
and when l should be busy at work.
/ have no time and no right to be-
come interested in anybody. I must
not suffer any liking to distract me
from business. Discharge that boy at
once"
Well, the little fellow had to 60.
Presumably he has grown to the estate
of manhood. fulfilled all the splendid
promises which were indicated in his
youth. We hope SO. Perhaps this
reminiscence of his old employer will
fall under his eyes, for this is small
world in which we live.
And what of A. T. Stewart and his
work. The canny old tradesman
went to his grave unloved and unwept.
Then robbers came and made away
with his dead body. The enormous
business he built up has gone to
pieces, and the vast fortune he &C.
quired is scattered. His genius, once
mighty influence, is simply tradi-
ton and not wholly ssvory one. By
Jupiter, what fun old Father Time
does have getting even with human
greatness!

lawful acs if possible, but their pro
vincial governments were too weak to
prevent the freebooters from robbing
merchant vessels or to punish them
when they came ashore. The prov
inces had no navies, and they really
had no armies. Neither were there
enough people living within the COM
munities to enforce the laws against
those stronger and fiercer men who
were not honest.

pecially silver was not to be found in

affairs, the merchant who sent for
change, said: al wonder what kind
of an argument the gold-bugs would

When the Seattle, Vaughn & Olym-
pia Railway aud Navigation Co. has
completed its proposed line, the time
between Seattle aud Olympia will be
reduced to two hours and fifty min
utes. Edward G. Edrington, President
and Manager of the company, an
nounces that Eastern capital has been
interested in the project and that by
January l. 1896. it was expected to
have the road finished. The total
cost, he thinks, will be about $5O0, 900,
and in addition there will he required
a heavy expenditure for two steamers
to handle the terminal business. The
company is negotiating with Cramp
Bros, in Philadelphia, for the steam
ers, which will be OF steel and each 125
feet long.
Mr.. Edrington is looking to the
towns along the road for financial aid.
He reports that the line will open up
rich country, where ultimately
electricity may be used as a motive
power, and that the people are ex-
tremely anxious to receive the benefit
OF the road.

A MIXED VICTORY.
THE KENTUCKY DEMOCRATS d.
VIDEO IN SENTIMENT.

| Aney Nominate n Free SILVER wan
for Governor on "a Gold Platform
Hardin Heads the Ticket-Black.
burn Thinks He IL Inconsistent.
The Kentucky Democratic conven-
ton has resulted in a divided victory
The administration men triumphed
over the silver forces in the temporary
organization, the permanent organiza-
ton and the adoption OF resolutions
warmly indorsing Cleveland and Car
Isle. Then after all this fighting the
convention nominated Gen. Hardin, a
pronounced free silver man, for Gov
ernor by huge majority.
The silver men as a rule are feeling
good over Hardin's nomination, though
Blackburn and the silver leaders feel
that Hardin did not stand by them,
and refer to the inconsistent position
in which he now finds himself on the
platform. Tonight Senator Black
burn said:
al do not feel sore, nor have any
heart-burns. 1 realize that it is i'm
possible to win fight against COM
bination of money and federal patron
age, especially when both are furnished
in unlimited quantities."
When the convention re-assembled
late in the afternoon, various subjects
took up the time till nearly 5 o'clock,
when the name of Cassius Clay was
presented for the nomination for Gov
ernor. }. r. Breckenridge, the elo-
quent brother of w. C. P. Brecken-
ridge. presented the name of P. Watt
Hardin. Previous to the convention
re.assembling the hall was flooded
with dodgers asking the convention to
nominate either J. ID. Black, w. J..
Stone or A. S. Berry, and lauding
them as candidates who were not
bound to any ring, clique or faction
who had not been tainted by associa-
tion with former malodorous admin
istration and who would stand upon q
Democratic platform. This dodger
was denounced in all the nominating
speeches and regarded as emanaiing
from Hardin.
There being only two active csndi
dates, a nomination was expected on
the first ballot, and the voting was
watched with such close attention as
to command perfect order. There
were S7S votes, necessary to a nomi-
nation 440. AS the ballot proceeded
several counties cast scattering votes.
The result OF the ballot was an
nounced as follows: Hardin 46S,
Clay 1901, Stone rs, Watson 3.
Henry Burnett, J. B. Harris and
Breckenridge were appointed to es-
cort General Hardin to the hall.
Meanwhile Gen. Cassius NJ. Clay was
called TO the stage. He pledged sin
cere support to the ticket. He re-
gretted that the financial question
had been brought into the canvass,
which should have been on State issue.
He took his stand for sound money
and stuck to it. He congratulated the
convention on the platform and in
dorsement of Cleveland and Carlisle
and said if the convention had adopted
plank for free silver at the ratio Of
16 to l, he would not have longer
been a candidate and could not have
been induced to accept the nomina-
ton il it had been accorded him.
When the committee escorted Gen
eral Hardin to the hall there were the
wildes. scenes and shouting. General
Hardin accepted the nomination in
an eloquent appeal for harmony,
without referring to any issues Of the
contest. He spoke briefly.
