The Boiling all 3osh.

New York. July y A Sun special
from Washington says: Senator
Jones Of Arkansas. who is going to
measure swords with Mark Hanna in
the coming Presit-utial campaign as
chairman of the National Democratic
COMMITTEES, arrived in Washington
last night. He said that he had not
fully determined whether be would es-
tablish his committee headquarters,
although he is seriously considering
the ad~visability Of locating his head
quarters in Washington.
There are many advantages to be
obtained here hat cannot be obtained
elsewhere. Besides, the experience OF
headquarters here, proved 80 success
full that he is inclined to come here.
Some of the members Of the commit
tee contend that ChicaEo is the most
= sireabie place, because il is right in
tile beart Of the battle ground. Sen
atur Jones confesses that Chicago has
Il few advantages, rs to locality, but
says hat the Chicago papers are all
against the ticket, and his experience
there convinces him that tie Demo
Gratis cannot expect fair treatment at
the hands Of the Chicago press.
He has not had TIM to make Up the
committee that is to aid him in the
management Of the campaign, but he
expects to take the matter under con-
sheraton as soon rs he has had a
few days rest. 1t is not definitely set
tied yet, but the campaign probably
will not be opened formally until the
early part Of August, The Object of
opening the fight in New York is to
show the people in thu locality that
the Democracy has no desire to hide
anything from them, but to let them
know just what the issue Of the Bryan
forces are.
As to the proposition OF the gold
men to put another ticket in the field.
Senator Jones says that is all bOsh.
He contends that all the States that
are talking about boIting have repre-
sentatives on the National Committee
OF the Democratic party, and if they
call a brlting convention they cannot
do so AS Democrats. There is no one
who has authority TO call such a con
v@entiol as is proposed. Certainly
thy .anGot expect the chairman OF
tn. Democratic Committee to Issue the
call for them.
He talks very confidently about the
success Of he silver ticket, and he j..
not Disturbed by the announcement
that Secretary Herbert, Secretary Ok
ney and aeverrl other members Of the
administration are openly OPT osed t
the ticket nominated at Chicago. H,
insists hat the friends Of the admin
istration who favor the gold standard
will be outnnmbered three to one h,
Republicans who are going to vote fo1
free silver.

About Advertising.

There are hundred things in your
store that will furnish the theme for a
readable interesting, attractive ad-
vertisement. Take an article or one
class of articles at time and describe
it as accurately as possible. Tell just
exactly what you see about it that
makes it good and desirable. Certainly
when you bought it, you had some idea
that for a particular reason that par
ticular thing would sell. That's the
idea to put into the advertisement. 1t
doesn't make much difference what the
thing itself amounts to. Maybe you
couldn't sell enough of them in a year
to pay for the advertisement for a
week, but put the whole strength of
the ad on it just the same.
You cannot make your advertise
ments too plain. Even if you could it
would be great deal better to have
them too plain than not plain enough.
If you make the ad so plain that even a
fool can understand it, you are sure to
be understood by the smart people. Of
course you will say any one of ordinary
intelligence will know what you mean.
but just think over the list of people
you know and see how few of them
possess ordinary intelligence. You re-
member the old Quaker's remark to his
wife, All the world are fools but me
and thee, and sometimes l think thou
art a little queer

NckinEey Club rleeting.

At the meeting of the Twin CITY Nc
klnley Club held at the business mems
room IN the city of Centralia last Mon
day evening, about 20 voters were
present, in spite of the rain and incle-
ment weather. The reports from the
Mckinley lists heard from show that at
that time there were over $50 members
on the club. Addresses were made by
Supt. HavenOr and others. Reports
from the farming districts indicate that
very few of the farmers in Wood County
are IN favor of free silver. A large
number of democrats have declared
their intentions TO vote for Mckinley.
The club voted to hold its next meet
ing at the court house in the room in
the city of Grand Rapids at 40 O'Clock
next Monday evening, at which short
addresses will be delivered by several
local speakers. 1t was the sense Of the
meeting that the members bring their
ladies' to the meeting of the club
The committee having the matter in
charge reported that they had secured
head quarters i'll the Wagner Block in
Grand Rapids, near the Gardner Block
and had a sign painted and slung across
that they Lad opened head quarters

had at all hours of the day at either
place. The committee further reported
that Hon. j. Y. Quarles, of Milwaukee,
would deliver campaign speech at the
Rink in Grand Rapids, on the evening
of the 29th of September, and that
probably Hon. E. S. Minor, Congress-
man from this district, and Hon. Ed
ward Scotield, candidate for Governor,
will be present on that occasion.

Value of Bright, Attractive Homes

''The Touch of woman's Hand" is
caption of an editorial in September
Ladies' Home Journal, in which Ed
ward w. Box makes plea for pleasant,
bright homes in which are manifested
the evidences of the wife's good taste
and an enthusiastic interest IN her
household: Zone reason why some
men do not get along better in this
world" &" Mr.. Box contends, sis because
they have not the proper stimulant in
their homes. Their homes lack those
little touches of refinement which
bring the best out of them. Neatness
and taste are possible in the poorest
homes. Let woman make that at
mosphere as dainty as her means allow,
and she will raise her husband to the
same standard. And as she elevates
him the effect is felt upon herself, her
children, her home and her future
Some men respond more slowly to the
touch of woman's hand displayed in
their homes and upon their surround
ings. The task may seem hopeless to
the wife at times. But sooner or later
the effect will show itself There is
something in every man which responds
to a higher and 2entler influence. Let
his home be rough and he will be rough.
But infuse into that home softening
touch, be it eyer so simple, and the
man feels it even though he may not
directly notice it. He imbides it un-
consciously, and Its effect is sure upon
him.

Honesty is respected most by those

Fire at BabcOck.

Early Sunday morning an attempt
was made to burn up the town of Bah
cock. About four o'clock and while
some parties were playing cards in
Louis Pschorr's saloon someone put
sack of papers, well saturated with
kerosene, under the back stoop and
touched a match to them. The flames
shot up and for a while it looked as
though the building would go. But
there is pump near the stoop and
prompt work on the part of the four
parties in the saloon soon quenched the
flames. The wind was blowing right to
have driven the flames to butcher
shop and from there to the big hotel, and
as there is no fire department in Bah
cock, the business part of the town
would undoubtedly have been
destroyed had not The fire been dis
covered as soon as it was.
An attempt is being made to locate
the parties who started the fire, but SO
far without avail.-Wausau Pilot

From Bryan's State.

A letter received this week by Mr..
I. J. Cooper from his brother Will w.
Cooper, Clerk of the District court of
Dixon county, Nebraska, asks for the
prevailing sentiment in National politics
of this section of our state and whether
or not Republicans will carry Wisconsin.
Among other things he says: ''The
cause ofsound money is getting stronger
with us and [ am satisfied that Bryan
will lose his own state, county, city, and
the ward in which he lives" W. w.
Cooper is prominent politician at his
western home and a conservative, not
radical. observer of the actions of the
political frmaneut that surrounds him.
He makes the above strong statement
after careful investigation by one in a
position to judge maturely. Evidently
the 'boyocratic' orator has left some
fences down at home where even his
best friends will pass through. Yes,
the silver craze is on the wane

Home and Home Takers.

Home is a place to rest; place to
cultivate character; the place to practice
usefulness. Geniality should be a
fourishing plant there. Brightness of
colors, of countenance, of sound, should
prevail. AS far as possible let it be
cheerfully furnished, let the sunshine
enter, let the faces within attract the
wanderers without; let the house be
vibrating with the music of instrument,
the voice in song and in conversation
but let unkind criticism be tabooed; let
the whole atmosphere be tingllng with

Living in Ones Self.

The man who lives in himself be-
queaths his own folly and poverty and
meanness for his monument He has
benefited nobody, while he has dwarfed
and warped his own powers, and sense
less stone and marble, however lavishly
supplied to mark his resting place, does
him no honor. He has lived in himself,
and all that he leaves in memory of
himself speaks no v-~d of. praise III his
behalf, no word of justification. There
is no true life. It is the worst of all
failures. There are glorious opportuni-
ties in this world for service. He who
wisely uses them enriches both his
race and himself, and dying, leaves a
monument which outlasts granite and is
brighter than polished brass.
