HOW TO TREAT A WIFE.
iFrom Paeiac HealM Jomnat.l

First, get wife; second, be patient.
You may have great trials and perplexi-
ties in your business, but do not there
fore, carry to your home q cloudy or
contracted brow. Your wife may have
trials, which, though of less magni-
tude, may be hard for her to bear. A
kind word, a tender look, will do won
ders in chasing from her brow all
clouds of gloom. To this we would
add always keep bottle of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy in the house. 1t
is the best and is sure to be needed
sooner or later. Your wife will then
know that you really care for her and
wish to protect her health. For sale

1t turns out that the principal objec-
ton to the two bills to restrict immagra-
ton now before the House Committee
is to protect the cities ON the Canadian
border from Canadians who come into
this country for a season "merely to
work" and take home with then the
proceeds of their labor. If disguised
McKinleyism can stop this business, it
ought to stop the still more European
singers and actors, who take home
with them in a season more money
than a regiment of Canadians could
lay by in lifetime.

FLYING MACHINES.

For 200 years men have been trying |
to learn how to fly in the air, and there
is good reason to believe that the |
mystery will soon be solved. Within
the last ten years some notable ad-
vances have been made in the con-
structiOn of apparatus for flying pur-
poses, Maxim, the inventor of the
Maxium gun, having constructed ap-
paratus that gives promise of great
usefulness. The French army has a
corps of aerOnuts, and the govern
ment has spent considerable money
on experiments about which little can
be learned. Germany also has a corps
studying airships for use by the army,
and Great Britain is about to take up
the subject In the meantime Prof.
Dangley, of the Smithsonian Institu-
ton, has devised soaring machine
which according to Prof. Bell, of tele-
phone fame, has demonstrated the
practicability of mechanical fight
Prof. Bell witnessed, on the Potomac
river, performance of the model,
which ascended in large curves to
height of 100 feet, and at the end of
half mile, its steam having given out,
decended gracefully, and without in
jury, to the water. 1t made a second
flight of half mile, travelling at the
rate of 20 miles an hour. The balloon
principle seems to have been aband-
oned by recent inventors of flying
machines, and they have aimed at an
imitation of the flight of soaring birds.
An eminent writer on the subject ex-
presses the opinion that success will be
achieved along this line. AS soon as
the art can be learned from the birds
of so adjusting planes corresponding
to wings that the air itself shall sus-
tain the air ship the problem will be
solved, for it will be an easy matter to
to arrange motors and prOpellers to
sustain the flight and give speed of
movement Inventors of to-day have
a great advantage over their prOdeces-
sors in the cheapness and ightness OF
aluminium, which can be employed to
lesson the weight of the flying machine.
They have, moreover, a variety OF
motors to chose from. Mr.. Langley's
model was a small affair, and its steam
engine was not provided with condens-
ing apparatus, and for that reason
it's propeller could be worked fol-
only a short time. The propeller
however, appears to have beer
Z necessary to sustain the ship in the all
as well as to move it forward. The
ideal flying machine would closely imi
D tate the soaring birds, whose out
: spread wings sustain them, and can b.
made to move them in any direction
without Tapping by slight change o
= the angle they present to the wind
t Motors and propellers could be pro
g vided to give such a machine start o
y increase its speed, but the sustainin,
power should be in the winds them
!, selves. The ease with which sucl
birds as buzZards rise themselves il
: the air, or lazily sail about with an oC
g casional flap of the wings, shows tn
9 possibility of adjusting planes for thi
q purpose, and, partly because of tn
difficulties of the problem, the study
one of great fascination. The puzzl
is one that can be answered, an
e man will not rest until he has an
y swered Philadelphia Record.

FROM THE MORNING NEWS.

Had it not been for the convention of
the anti-Addicks Republicans on Tues
day, members of the Republican party
who are apposed to Addicksism would
have had no choice except to vote with
the Democratic party, in whose princi-
pies they have no confidence, or to
stultify themselves by becoming fol-
lowers of Addicks
These honest and fair-minded Repub-
licans have no selfish ends in view.
Their only interest in politics is to Sc
cure good government, and to see that
the fair name of the party shall not be
sacrificed for such temporary success
as would bring ruin and degradation
in the future.
The anti-Addicks men contend that,
by the holding of their convention in
the organization of the Republican
party. By the admission of the pre-
tender himself his following comprise
new organization known as the
"Addicks party The Republican
party in Delaware still lives. 1t was
born in 1856 and it will not die in 1896.

FROM THE DALEY REPUBLICAN

The parties who propose to divide
the Republican party because they
failed to control the convention at
Dover, should pause and consider
what the result may be. By widen
ing the split, it is certain that they
contribute to Democratic success in
November. Sound policy demands
union and harmony. We have never
known an independent movement to
result in any great good. In almost
every instance independent movements
result in destroying the influence of
those leading them.
This was notably the case in the
Seventh ward of our city few years
ago. Every leading man in it was re-
tired from politics, and his usefulness
in the party was entirely destroyed.
The prime movers in this Independent
movement must be careful or they will
succeed in destroying Mr.. Addicks,
but in doing so they will defeat the
party and destroy their friends as well
as themselves. Like Samson who
pulled down the house, they may
perish with those they hate and detest.
Young men should think twice before
they initiate such an act.
Let them take counsel of the history
of the past and act as becomes good
soldiers who never desert a principle
in order to punish any one who has
dared to aspire to places which only
the chosen few are fit to fill.
The Republican party is not large
enough to divide, and those who think
of such division make sad mistake.

How A Sun BURNED UP.-In Decem-
ber, 1891, the astronomers beheld the
most wonderful sight that has ever
greeted mortal eyes. They were
watching the queer antics of star in
the ninth magnitude, when all at once
it famed up like a smouldering brush
pile to which new fuel had just been
added. Within fourty- weight hours it's
brilliancy increased sixteen fold, and
then the star slowly disappeared from
view. The final flash which they saw
probably left the doomed orb twenty
or even fifty years ago. 1t is a we'll
known fact that there are stars re-
moved from us by distances so great
that they might have been wiped out
of existence 100 years ago and the light
still be coming to us through space.

An excellent remedy for cough is
made by slicing two lemons thin and
adding to them ten cents worth of
whole faxseed, and ten cents worth of
licOrice root, one gill of water, and a
little sugar. Boil until quite thick
and strain.
Flaxseed is one of the best remedies
for a cold on the lungs. Such a cold
should never be neglected, for it may
speedily result in some more serious
allment A hot bath should be immed-
lately taken, followed by cool spOng-
ing; the latter will prevent taking
more cold. Use faxseed, either ground
or whole, pour over it boiling water,
let it steep and drain off the liqour,
thin it sufficiently so that it can be
used for a drink To every bOwlful
add the juice of one lemon and sugar
to make it palatable. Drink freely of
this whenever thirsty, or oftener if
there is little thirst The result is
wonderful.
