Hints For the Home Laundry.

the difficulties experienced by
housekeepers generally in having
washing done at home causes many,
who can i'll afford to send their clothes
to laundries, where inferior soap and
injurious washing fluids are used,
while if proper attention is given the
work, 1t may be done quite as salts
factorily in The home laundry.
Assert the clothes; divide the table
and bed linen from the wearing appar-
ell, and the fine garments from the col
ored. Fret immerse the white articles
in hot water and after all are taken
through the suds, pour boiling water
over them, let cool, wash out in clear
water, rinse in blue water, wiring,
starch. and hang on the line. The col
ored clothes should then be washed in
the same way, without scalding.
Which all are dry they should be taken
from the line. sprinkled, folded evenly
and laid in the clothes basket. The
ironing musbbe done with hot, clean
ilons, and the clothes hung up to air.

A Churn That Churns in One
Minute.

have been in the dairy business
all my life and have many times
churned for an hour before butter
would appear, 80 when 1 heard of a
churn that would churn in minute
1 concluded to try it. Every day for
a week 1 used it, and not only could /
churn in minute but got more
and better butter than with the COM
mon churn This is very important
information to butter makers. The
churn works easily, and will churn
any ordinary churning in less than
60 seconds. i have sold two dozen of
these churns in the past month.
Every butter maker that has seen me
churn in less than minute has bought
one. You can obtain all desired i'll
formstion regarding the churn by
addressing j. F. Casey& Co, ST.
Louis, and they will give you prompt
ard .;;;i. courteous attention.

The Courier-Journal of last Friday
says of Gen. John M. Palmer, the nom
luce of the indianapolis convention,
that he has been railways a stalwart
champion of tree government" The
history of Kentucky for 1866 does not
bear out that statement.
In 1866 Gen. Palmer was military
Governor of Kentucky and just before
the August election of that year he is
sued the following order:
HFirst--All rebel soldiers, whether
paroled or not, and without regard to
the fact that they have or have not ia

the headquarters of the department of
Kentucky.
'Second--All guerrillas and others
who, without belonging 10 the regular
military organizations, have taken up
arms agains the Government, or have
in any way operated against the Gov
eminent or people of Kentucky, or
any other state or territory.
"Third--All persons who by act or
word, directly or indirectly. gave aid,
comfort or encouragement to persons
in rebellion. This applies to all per-
sons who have voluntarily acted as
scouts Or spies for rebel or guerrilla
forces, who have voluntarily furnished
any rebel with food or clothing, horse
or arm or money, or have harbored,

REV. SAM JONES VIEWS.
The Political Situation ns He Secs
It-No Millennium to Come.

From the Atlanta Journal
1 am not looking for the millennium to
dawn on the morning of Nov. 4. There
remains up to this hour uncertainty as to
who shall be elected, Mckinley or Bryan.
If Mckinley is elected and republicanism
triumphs we shall still have the same
problems to deal with with which we
have been dealing in the commercial,
financial and agricultural world for the
and free silver triumphs we will just add
one more i'll to the many tlls which now
afflict us.
have very little confidence in the pol
iticians Fighting matters. National pros
perity cannot be superinduced by the VIC
tory of any candidate or the defeat of
any other candidate. Corn will remain II
and IS cents a bushel in the west as long
as we produce more corn than the coun-
try needs. The same is true of wheat,
cotton, cloth, apples, engines, iron and
everything.
/ have listened to arguments and read
speeches pro and con upon the issues be-
fore us. Mr.. Harrison with his over
whelming republican congress eight years
ago promised to do and tried to do the
very thing Mr. Mckinley and the republi-
can party are now promising TO do. Mr..
Mckinley will as signally fail, in my
Judgment as Mr.. Harrison and his gang
did.
Really the democrats and republicans
have been alternately saving the coun-
try and bringing prosperity ever since

only word without the possibility OF APP
plication TO the present state of things
If the real trouble so far as we meet
IL was located rightly, l would locate It
in the mouth. Most every fellow is mouth
ing around When man who raised this
year 1000 bushels Of corn, as many fat
cattle and hogs as he need

ance, and by the sale OF chick

= Some of our troubles may be rightly To-
Gated in our muscles. A fellow who only
works three months In the year and then
lays his misfortunes to the demonetiza-
ton OF silver, ought TO be indicted for va
grancy. And some of 1t can be located
in the head. The little lawyer who neg
lects his office and runs around making
political speeches, the little doctor who
lays down his pills and powders and runs
for some little office when he Office and

readily see how the trouble Of this class
