Sound Sense on Small Sralo-
The smallest paper in the United
States is the Bernardsville, N. C. Times,
published every Monday morning. Its
pages are only six by eight inches, but,
email as they are. they contain such
sound sense as the following:
Give Us sound protection. sound
Americanism. sound patriotism, and
place sound sense at the helm. and the
"Old United States" will glide merrily
on and continue to be the home Of free
men. the refuge Of liberty and the
abiding place Of freedom.

Small v. Large Lungs.

Professor Playfair said recently be-
fore the Royal Agricultural Society OF
England that small lungs in proportion
to the total bulk, are helpful to the
fattening of animals. The order of the
smallness of the lungs of our domestic
animals is: 1, pig; 2, sheep: 3. OK; 4.
horse, and as a remarkable proof OF the
importance of small lungs as indicative
of tendency to fatten, the order OF the
aptitude to fatten Of the animals Just
named is exactly the same as the or
der of the smallness of the lungs.
Thus the pig has the greatest tendency
and the horse the least tendency to
fatten of all our domestic animals.
Thus, for instance, Chinese pig has
small lungs. an Irish one large; the
Chinese pig fattens much more quickly
than the Irish. The disappearance"
of food from the system of an animal
is owing to the combustion of the food
by means of the air inspired by the
lungs. The oxygen which has once en-
tered the system never again escapes
from it without being united either
with part Of the body or Of the food.
This statement may be quite correct
with reference to the deposit Of pure
fat. But the health and constitutional
vigor of any animal depend very much
upon healthy and regular waste
through the skin and lungs. Excess
Of fatty deposit in proportion to lean
fibre is the very thing to which pork
curers object. The same thing holds
good for over-fed beef.

Presidential Populnr Vote.

There is a widespread feeling in the
country, if it does not amount to posi-
tive conviction, that some of the laws
regulating the method by which the
choice of the people for the highest Of
fee in their gift is made have sur
vived the period Of their usefulness aud
ought to be revised and adapted to the
conditions of the present time, which
differ so widely from those existing
when these laws were enacted. The in
dications are not obscure that there ia a
growing desire in the country to have
the existing electoral plan re-examined,
and possibly abandoned, 80 as to elect
the president by direct popular vote.
There is at least enough of this feeling
abroad to justify an impartial study Of
the subject from a nonpartisan stand
point, and with view to do ample
justice to the plan as il is as we'll as to
ascertain whether it might be modified
so as to become more republican in spir-
it and to work with greater equality
among the voters of the different states.

Costly Bottle of Champagne.

Some years ago Mr.. Gladstone had
met possible claimant for a civil list
pension whom he believed to be in suf-
ficiently poor circumstances and had
almost decided to grant it when he re-
ceived an invitation to dinner with the
person in question This raised some
doubt in his mind. On the one hand,
should a civil list pensioner be able to
afford to entertain? On the other hand,
it might only be a dinner of herbs, and
it seemed hard to deprive public bene-
factor of pension because he was ready
to share his crust and water. Knowing
that in any case there would be feast
of reason and a flow of soul, Mr.. Glad
stone accepted the invitation, and on
the way propounded to his companion
the following test: "No champagne,
pension; champagne, no pension. "
There was champagne, and the host lost
his pension. 1t was the dearest bottle
of wine Oh record, for it cost the pur.

What is more of a compliment to
a woman than to be called good
hOusekeeper? And what is more in
teresting for lady to read than a
good article on housekeeping in a
refined manner? Taking the care of
the house with no experience is no
easy task, like child's first lesson
at school, who hopes to progress,
and finds it a great help to hear
what others have to say.
A few things are of equal interest
to a good housekeeper-or house
wife-and these can be only touched
upon i'm the space allotted,
Good health is essential, as moth
ing else can be done or enjoyed
without it, and one point in order
for this is good ventilation and
warmth in Il house from cellar to
attic, both night and day. Good
water in abundance is equally es-
Sential.
Then, a good housekeeper will
have each day of the week for diff
ferent work. There should be sys-
tematic order in every department;
neatness, promptness and despatch
should attend on every duty; exact
ness in the performance of small
duties is a wonderful aid to cheer
fulness. OF course, there must be
modern appliances to carry on the
routine of work, and the fin de Siecte
housewife will not be content with
out them.
And. lastly-or should it have
been firstly?-you must have that

list, mixed his colors, brains; think
twice before speaking.

system and have ample time to
make and receive calls, or devote a
little time each day to reading. One

children, etc, but let woman have

AL PeOrlas
PEORIA, ILL, Oct. 23.-The great
est reception of the day was ac-
corded Mr.. Bryan when he arrived in
Peoria this evening. The streets
were crowded, and be was given
continual ovation from the time he
left the depot until he had started to
speak. Three meetings were held
one in the Tabernacle, another in
historic Rouse's Hall, to an audience
made up exclusively OF trades union
men, and third in the open air on
the courthouse square. Thous ands
were unable to gain admittance to
the Tabernacle and thousands more
were unable to get within sound of
the speakers voice at the open air
meeting. 1t was near IL o'clock be-
fore Mr.. Bryan finished his work
and he retired at once toflis car. .

At the Tabernacle Mr.. Bryan
spoke in part as follows:

Not Too Old.


Mothers, do you teach your little
ones to say their prayers before re-
firing for the night? If not, you
should, for early religious training
will not soon be forgotten.
The Rev. Peter Thacher, who was
one of our public spirited clergymen
in the latter part of the stirring
eighteenth century, gave at the very
end of his life, unconscious testi-
mony to the effect of early religious
teaching, and also to his own SIM
plicity of character. He was very
i'll with consumption, and had taken,
with his son, voyage to Savannah,
in hope Of obtaining some relief
there. 1t was too, however; the in
invalid died in two weeks after
reaching warmer climate. AS he
lay down for the last time early in
the evening, few hours before his
death, he softly repeated the nursery
prayer:
Now lay me down to sleep,
pray the Lord my soul TO keep
1T l should die before / wake,
pray the Lord my soul to take.
Then he turned to his son, and
said: My son, this little prayer ]

Newest Needle Notes.

NthFSt Nceule NOTES.
Venetian embroidery done on
heavy linen is very effective. The
designs are outlined with fiat
soutache braid, buttonboled over,
ami the centres are filled in with va
riots lace stitches. Roman en-
broidery on heavy satin-duck is
also used, The designs are outlined
in buttOnhole-stitch over cord; the
centres are filed in with long stitch,
interlaced effectively in some por-
tions of the pattern.
For netting" very few and sim
pie implements are required. They
consist of netting needles and
meshes of various sizes. They are
made Of steel for fine work, and of
ivory, bone, or lockwood, for larger,
coarser work.
Split outline-stitch is used for out
lining very fine designs. 1t is the
same as ordinary outline-stitch, eX-
cept that the needle is brought up
through instead of at one side of the
thread of the preceding stitch, thus
making the outline finer and more
even. Many new tea-cloths and
center cloths are finished with hem
stitched borders, and are decorated
with the flsh-net stitch. The out
lining may be done with silk or with
cord covered with, or rather caught
down, by buttonhole stitch. Fish
net work done in colors is very at
tractive. Outline-stitch is the fun
damental stitch of Kensington
needle-work, which still continues
popular. 1t is used on much of the
embroidery of the day. 1t is used
for working designs in outline, either
flowers, figures, or pictures, in the
latter being sometimes called
sketch embroidery"

SOME days ago the CITIZEN contaihe

SOME days ago the CITIZEN contained
reference to a comm lnication In the
San Francisco Call, taking to task the
correspondent, Leonard Fowler, for say
ing unkind things of Tucson. Mr..
Fowler wrote this office letter, deny
ing that he had said anything dercgst-
DRY of Tucson, and saying that the CIT
IzEN must have been mislnformed. Mr..
Fowler's letter also contained a lot OF
stuff about the Call requiring reliability
on the part of its correspondents. This
is undoubtedly what the Gall desires,
but it ia evident that sometimes it gets
fooled. Regarding the denial of Mr..
Fowler that he SAID anything unkind
of Tucson, the CITIZEN quotes what he
said in the Call dated Sunday, January
9Th: ''If the deductions are worth
anything the fate of Tucson is sealed.
That thriving city will be abandoned,
aud thus one of the very oldest towns
in the southwest will sink from it's pres
ent prosperity and decay inst as did
those other towns elong the line of the
Arizona Central when that road was
abandoned years ago" IL this is Gem
plimentary language in the estimation
OF Mr.. Fowler, the CITIZEN confesses
that it's early education has been sadly
neglected and would be pleased to take
O few lessons OF this correspondent in
order to properly understand the mys-
teries of the English language. No OBJ
lection can be or is made to all that Mr..
Fowler may say in favor of Phoenix
and the Salt River valley, but when he
attempts to increase the force of his
praises by ehvious filings at other com
munities he must expect that his sland-
ers will be resented, and if repeated will
not be so polite as this reply.

liberal representation, and can end

10 oil members of the party. In the
past some very bitter quarrels have been
engendered by the action Of the populoUs
counties 10 overriding the weaker ocee,
and these quarrels have in the past had
a marked influence in the elections. But
the liberal allowance OF the national
committee presents a means, by wise
action on the part of Arizona republic
ans, to prevent possibility of recur-
renee Of the differ ences OF the past.
The republican party o: every portion
of Arizona is entitled to representation.
therefore the CITIZEN advocates the

THE people of the United States do
not desire war, but they are very much
in earnest in their advocacy of the Mon
roe doctrine, believing that its enforce
ment is necessary to the eaceful exist
ence OF our government. Therefore il
is not to be supposed that Americans
will give any support TO Senator Sewell's
resolution, 1t has too much the ap-
pearsnce Of bacBdown and surrend-
er of the vital principle OF the Monroe
doctrine. The deepseatsd feeling of the
people on this question was evinced by
the enthusiastic snd Unanimous approx
al of the truly American lepiy Of Preei-
dent Cleveland to the British premier.
The Monroe doctrine, ever since lis
enunciation, has received the endorse
ment of the American people, but has
always been resisted by European gov
ernments, they recognizing that an &C
quiesence in its principles would prove
an etfectual bar to any piratical attempts
on the weak governments on the South
American continent. Having contended
for so many years for a recognition or
this doctrine, it is recognized that the
present favorable opportunity for def
mite settlement of the question should
be improved, regardless of consequences,
and any lodging of the question will re-
ceiye scaut favor.

If it is true that England Intends TO

other light than a warlike demcnstra-
ten against the United States. England
ought to know better than to attempt
any such game with the United States.
We are of the same Anglo Saxon stock,
and that race has never yet been known
to take bluff; acd England ought to
know this by bitter experience. Ii, as
this move would indicate, she is epoil-
