TiannsIs In the laundry.

Flanuolg and silk undorganncuts
should be treated in much the same
manner. Soap sAou,d never bo rubbed
on the garment, inn the washing and
rinsing waters must DC of the same tenn
perature. Pure soap will not injure fan
nels, so it is economy, in this case, as
in Others, to buy the best. Make good
soapsuds using water little more than
lukewarm. Wash the fiannels in this,
plunging them up and down, but not
scrubbing them, as this thickens the
texture. Use as many soapy waters MS
may be necessary, having them as nearly
as possible of the same temperature.
Rinse in several lukewarm waters and
put through the wringer. This is tho
advice given in Table Talk, authority
also for the following:
Flarnels should never be twisted in
the hands. II impossible TO use wiring
er, lift the fannc.s from The water with
one hand and with the other squeeze
dry, then shake it thoroughly and dry
in the same temperature i'll which it has
been washed Many who are most sue
cCssful in walking flalncls never wiring
them at all. lat take them from the
water and allow them to drip until they
begin TO dry, finishing the process by
the Gre. II is either poor soap, bad han
ding or quick changes of temperature
that cause fianncls TO shrink. If they are
ironed, they must not lie left to dry be-
forchand, but irored while damp until

Quite a number of new pavementS
have been laid recently. This is es
pecially true of South Raleigh street,
both sides of which have been, with
few exceptions, we'll paved. Fol
their energy in this particular the
street committee is to be commended
but there are those, and among them
some of the residents of Raleigh
street, who cannot understand why
they are compelled to lay pavements
while East Burke street, between the
railroad bridge and the cemetery, over
which hundreds OF people travel every
Sunday to visit the graves OF depart
ed friends, has no pavements on
either side. There are others again
who cannot understand why the
north side of East Martin street, be-
tween Queen aud the B. & o. pas
senger depot, is almost impossible,
also West King street, in many plac-
es, when they are the most important
thoroughfares in the city.

A TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT:

Grand Army men throughout the
State have been sent circulars from
Reno Post No. 7, Grafton, the pur-
port of which is a protest against the
appointment of DIR. w. f. Vankirk,
on the board of Pension Examiners,
at Grafton.
The charge against DR.. Vankirk is
that he said to Methodist minister:
"If had my way not id one OF
you would get id cent.
Senator Elkins, Hon. A. G. Day
ton and Hon. Thos. +. Davis and DR..
A. H. Thayer, of Grafton, are con-
demDed in unmeasured terms.
Senator Elkins is condemned as
unjust and cowardly" in not allow
ing one Leeds to poster the life out Of
him. Leeds's own statement is that
he saw the Senator, who told him he
would give the matter his attention
but that did not satisfy Leeds who
followed him from his home to the
Capitol and back early and late, until
he made a nuisance of himself
1t may not be amiss to mention in.
cidentally that at the same time Leeds
was persistently insisting that Mr..
Dayton should give him a Govern.
ment position Failing to receive
which accounts in a large measure foi
his report to the Post.
Dr. Vankirk Indignantly denies
ever making the remark and his of

One John Doe or Richard Roe, as
the law books say, known as 'the
Quaker Doctor" has been attracting
considerable attention here recently,
in his vocation of vending a nostrum,
which is recommended as a cure.all.
We had thought to allow him to leave
without noticing him, but recent de-
velopments demand that the people
should be warned that he is not a
doctor" or physician, in that he has
no right to practice medicine in this
State not having a diploma or certifi-
cate. He has paid a license to sell
his stuff, but that is as far as he has
any right to go. Neither is his-~wife
doctor in any sense of the term.
They have promised DR.. Myers to re,
frain from practicing and there is a
disposition to allow them to depart IN
peace, but if there are any more con-
situations, the law will be enforced.
This warning is given in order that
people may know with whom they
are dealing. Those who wish to take
his nostrum have right to do so, but
it is at their own risk.

-, are the only pills to take
Hoods Pills with Hoods Sarsaparilla.
GOLD PLATED AT LEAST.

The sensation of the week in news
paper circles, in this city, is the
change in the status of the Democrat.
An agreement has been entered into
by which the ownership of the paper
passes into the hands of a stock COM
pany composed of d. S. and Robert
Eichelberger, George w. Johnson, ii.
II. Emmert and Allen Noll, incorpor-
ators. Mr.. Johnson is to be editor,
Mr.. Emmert, business manager and
treasurer, while d. S. Eichelberger
will have charge of the mechanical
department.
The object expressed is to make OF
the Democrat all that can be made OF
a newspaper of that persuasion in this
section. Mr. Eichelberger says it
will be a straight-out, rotor Demo
cratic ne 8spaper On that subject
doubts are expressed as Mr.. Emmert
is and has been an out and out Gold
bug OF the most pronounced type and
Mr.. Johnson not has been rated as a
never .say.die silverite Time alone
will tell the course that will be per-
sued, as we opine that would now be
impossible in view of the chaotic con-
dition of the Democratic party.
1t is also surmised that the real
milk in the cocoauut is opposition to
Senator Faulkner. Indeed it is broad
ly limited that the whole aim and OBJ
ject is to supplant the Statesman
which is we'll known to be favorable
to the Senator. IF that be true there
will be 'hot times in the old town,
as the Senator and his friends are
fighters from way-back.
The Herald heartily welcomes
Brother Johnson to the fraternity and
extends the right hand of fellowship,
wishing him unbounded success, pol
itics alone excepted, in his new voca-
ton.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1897-09-25

fetal acts do not bear out the charge.
The methodist minister whose
name is not given, disgraced the
cloth and was expelled from the Con
ference for drunkenness and debauch-
cry. His reputation is so bad that
many men say they would not believe
him on oath.
At the meeting Of the Post at which
the resolutions were passed there
were but few present and then only a
bare majority was secured.
The gist Of the whole matter is that
DR.. Vankirk, who was a leading
Democrat, last year repudiated the
Popocratic platform and voted the
Republican ticket from Mckinley
down. This aroused the ire OF John
T. McGraw and the free riot gang,
and since then he has been target
for their abuse.
The action of Senator Elkins anc
Mr. Dayton is approved by practically
all of the Republicans of that section
of the State, and especially by Hon
Thos. F.. Davis, DR.. A. II. Thayer
and the Grafton Sentinel, the Repub-
lican organ of Taylor county.
Members OF the G. A. r. through.
out the State can rest assured that nc
worthy veteran will safer from any
act of DR.. Nankirk.

The Herald has never criticised the
'soundness' of the Democrats De
mocracy and never shall. There
could not be more perfect specimen,
if made to order. 1t therefore gives
US pain to have the Democrat ques-
ton our sincerity when we commend
the Democracy of the Statesman.
True the editor OF the Statesman was
not quite as agile as the editor Of the
Democrat climbing into the I6-to-I
cart, but he got there just the same.
Now, IN our opinion, the crucial test
will come in seeing WHO can get out
with the fewest broken bones. In
deed we fear for the Democrat since
it has a Goldbug business manager.
Let's see how the thing works.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1897-09-25

The Democrat was "righteously'
indignant when the Statesman called
the Goldbug Democrats ours, and
then turns around and dubs Snyder,
OF the Shepherdstown Register, as
cowardly puppy. And Snyder--well,
some of these days he'll wiring some
bodys neck.
