AZ esteemed contemporary re marks that two years from now when candidates bob up for office which is always the case-the ques- tion with voters will be: how did he stand on the money question in 1896? This accounts for the greater part of the milk in .the cocoanut. Itis not to be a question of integrity, of moral worth, oi ability, of general fitness for the duties of the office, but how he was on the silver question. No doubt the woods are full of would-b statesmen who are supporting free silver with the hopes of reaping substantial reward in the future These gentry ate reminded that many changes occur in q year, an( the gold bug of today may be tht silverite of tomorrow, and vist versa. The hopeful office-seeker k always on the lookout for conditions which will hide his deficiencies from public gaze and land him a winner in snug little office. Conditions like these make towards of man, otherwise clever fellows. Helen; World.

In case Bryan is elected, Senator Jones would most likely get a cabi- net port folio, which we earnestly desire. A United States Senator would have to be elected, and we sincerely hope that our legislators will select one of the four following gentlemen for the place: Hon. W. H. Langford, of Pine Bluff; Gov.

Head Rests.

An oblong head rest for a gentle
sateen. The front is decorated with
Delft design embroidered with Ash
attic etching silk, in the shades of blue
seen upon Delft ware. The design
shows a bit of fence with bars let
down and, beyond it, a few trees and
a windmill. Bows of blue ribbon Sc
cure the cushion to the chair.
A very pretty head rest for a wick
er chair is of light blue silk and
is made in the shape of bolster.
A spray of apple blossoms is en-
broidered diagonally around the
cushion with Asiatic flo, in the nat
ural colors of the flowers.
A frill of silk lace and a bow of
pink ribbon finish each end of the
cushion. Pink ribbon is also used to
fasten it to the chair.
A heart-shaped head rest is made
of pale pink silk. A frill of silk lace
finishes the edge and pink ribbons,
attached to the top of the heart, Sc
cure it to the chair. A spray of for
get-me-nots embroidered with Asiat-
ic flo decOrates the front.
For the children's chair, the head
rest is of fine white muslin, oval in
shape, and fastened securely to the
chair by red ribbons at the ends.
Scattered over the cushion are
Brownies outlined with Turkey red
embroidery cotton.

Satisfactory Sandwiches.

The refreshments for informal
luncheons, afternoon teas, picnics
and such affairs hardly seem COM
plete without sandwiches. Oftentimes
the sandwich is the principal feature
1t should be borne in mind that
bread used for such purposes should
be twenty-four hours old, so as to be
firm enough to retain it's form when
cut thin.

of wick soaking in the oil, which be-
comes saturated and clogged, then
hardens and never burns clearly and
freely. A wick about ten inches
long is best and should be renewed
frequently, never being allowed to
burn shorter than an inch and a half.
Of the course the wick must be per-
fectly dry when put in, and in start
ing new lamp, or an Old one that
has been cleaned, the utmost care
should be taken that every atom of
moisture has been dried out before
the oil is put in, being sure to give
the wick time to fill with oil before
lighting. Also remember when light
ing it, not to turn the wick up too
high at first, for the flame grows as
it heats, and if it begins to smoke it
is not easy to get it right without re-
trimming it. Another important AK
iOm is that the lamp should never be
left with the wick turned down be-
all accident. If the lamp is to be
unused for some time, the oil should
be carefully emptied out and the
wick removed. Oil left standing will
eNude and cling to the retainer, and
when the lamp is lighted it gives out
a most obnoxious but only too we'll
known odor. While the wick may be
cut, good way is to simply burn the
end off. The blaze will make it's
own way artistically, and the after
light will have no ragged edges.
Every morning the burned edges
should be rubbed off with a flannel
cloth.
1t is always better to fill and trim
lamp by day-light-never while it
is lighted or near another lighted
lamp or gas jet, bearing in mind the
importance Of keeping the filler away
from any flame. A lighted lamp
should not be allowed to remain in a
draught, as it is liable to smoke. At
ter the 'run around" lamps have been
filled, the chimneys washed and put
OH the shelf, take pieces of light
weight paper and roll in the form OF
chimney, and slip over chimney
and lamp. 1t will protect from dust
and flies, and when the lamps are
lighted one will be rewarded by find
ing them as clear and bright as when
first put in order.
AS to the selection of lamp shades,
writer of evident experience and
good taste in such matters. wisely
makes the following instructive COM
ment:
I'm buying the lamp shade, select
one with the colors most becoming
to the tone Of the room and your
complexion. For the brunette who is
great deal at the workable, read
ing or sewing, a pretty shade of vel
low will enhance her charms, and for
the blond or brown haired woman
old rose is always becoming. Red is
coy light and often makes a plain
room look attractive. Old rose, terra
Gotta and other of the soft colors are
selected for the lamps about the room

A HELPFUL CORNER.
Our Kerosene Lamps.

fected and gas or electricity has been
used. But where these luxuries are
not to be had the lamp must be used
and here are few helpful hints.
First of all use only the best oil.
Do not think because you can get
cheaper grade that it is as good. Not
so. To properly care for lamps,
Good Housekeeping says provide the
following: A discarded waiter to
hold all the articles used; a lamp fill
er with a spout, small at one end and
turned up to prevent oil from drip
ping; proper wicks, and a basket or
box to hold them; lamp trimmer
made for the purpose, or pair of
sharp scissors; a small soap cup and
soap; some washing soda in a broad
mouthed BOTTLE; a mop made es-
pecially for the lamp chimney, with
cles and towels or chamois to wipe
them. If everything, after being
used, is cleaned from oil and then
neatly kept, it will not be so unpleas-
ant task as it usually is to take
care of lamps.
The inside of lamps and oil cans
should be cleansed with soda dissolv-
ed in water. Be careful to drain them
well, and not to let any gliding or
no mi bxyf do
in contact with it. Use one table
spoon of soda to one quart of water.
About once month the lamp should
receive thorough cleaning. the wick
being removed, the burner unscrew-
ed, well brushed and placed in a dish
of warm water in which soda and a
little soap has been dissolved. Hav-
ing boiled thirty minutes, they should
be removed, rinsed with clear, hot,
water, laid to drain and afterward
carefully rubbed and polished with a
flannel. This will remove the almost
imperceptible coating of dust and
grease always SO ready to form on
the brass. If large china lamps are
used, where a brass tank holds the
oil, the metal receptacle may be boil
ed as well as the burner.
Wipe the chimney once a day and
wash in warm, soapy water whenever
mere wiping fails to cleanse it. Chin
neys of good crowned or tempered
glass ought to bear the heat we'll and
not crack under any ordinary expos
ure; but if put into the reservoir of
water on the cook stove where the
water is cool in the morning and left
all day, while the water is hot all
night, when it will slowly cool, the
glass will be toughened. This rule ap-
plies equally well to all glass utensils
in common use. See that the chin
ney fits closely at the base, thus
avoiding a side draft, which makes
the blaze unsteady.
AS to the wick, if boiled in water
in which trife of soda has been dis
solved, it will burn with a clearer and
steadier light than if put into the
lamp without previous preparation.
1t should fit exactly and be just long
enough to allow of the end reaching
the bottom of the oil container when
the wick is first put in. 1t is a mis-

baking-powder cans, or other tins not
over two or three inches in diameter
Bake slowly for half an hour, and al
low the bread to partially cool before
removing from the cans, so the crust
will be very light and tender. If
cans five inches in diameter are used,
the slices should be cut in two, MAX
ing half-circle or crescent-shaped
sandwiches. If square loaves are used
the slices should be perfectly regular,
either square or slightly oblong, then
cut from corner to corner, making
triangular sandwiches. The thinner
the bread is cut, the more acceptable
the sandwiches will be.
Celery Sandwiches.-Chop celery
very fine, heart and all, and add
enough salad dressing to spread it
easily.
Cabbage sandwiches are nice by
substituting finely chopped cabbage
for the celery.
Mixed Sandwiches.-Chop very fine
any cold meat or bits of fowl; two or
three kinds may be used; add one
half the amount of finely chopped
cabbage or celery; mix with suf-
ficient salad dressing to thoroughly
moisten, and let it stand two or three
hours before spreading between the
slices of bread.
Cucumber Sandwiches.-Chop very
fine tart cucumber pickles, add one
half the amount of hard-boiled egg
yolks rubbed smooth, and enough
melted butter, and vinegar from the
pickle to form paste. Mix thor
oughly and spread.
Tomato Sandwiches.-Pare very
ripe tomatoes, and press through a
sieve to remove the seeds; mix thor
oughly with mayonnaise dressing.
Nut Sandwiches.-Chop hickory
nuts, walnuts or hazel-nuts until fine.
and mix with salad dressing; or with
the rolling-pin roll to paste, sprin-
kle we'll with salt, and spread very
thickly between slices of bread cut as
thinly as possible.
Lemon Sandwiches.-Tnt a tea
cupful of incest butter slightly soft
ened beat the raw yolk of an egg and
teaspoonful of French mustard.
Rub smooth the yolks of two eggs
that have been boiled for three quar-
ters of an hour; rub into them one
fourth of the butter, scant half
teaspoonful of salt and a teaspoonful
OF lemon-juice. Add another fourth
OF the butter and teaspoonful of
lemon-Julce, and SO on until all the
butter and two tablespoonful of
lemon-juice have been used. rubbing
completely until all is smooth and
hne' and spread moderately thick.
1hese are as appetizing as anything
could we'll be.
Peach Sandwiches.-Pare very ripe
peaches, slice thinly, sprinkle well
with sugar, and let stand for two or
three hours. Spread bread thiclzlv
with fresh, sweet country butter, add
plenty of the sliced peaches and serve
at once. Almost any seedless fruit
may be used instead of bread, and

time-honored preparations which
experience and the sanction OF the
medical profession indicate as de-
serving of popular regard and con-
fidence, is Hostetter's Stomach Bit

eradication of dyspepsia, constipa-
ton and biliousness, the three most
frequently occurring ailments that

botanic parentage, it is efficient as
well as pure and wholesome. 1t re-
Heves nervous disquietude and mac
