Almost from the opening words of the
famous valedictory the vast assem-

"The scene was indeed impressive as
Mr. Clay pronounced the concluding

Mr.. Coyle. HE stood for moment

Of the whole assemblage were fixed on
these two old friends and political an.

demonstration which awaited Mr.. Clay,
the moment Of suspended anticipa-
tion was almost painful. For five years
they had been estranged, and the only
words which had passed between them
had been those harshly spoken in de-
bate. But now, as they met, the old
time came over them. They remem-
bered only the political companionship
of twenty years standing. The inter.
vening differences which had chilled
their hearts toward each other were
forgotten. The tears sprang to their
eyes. They shook each other cordially
by the hand, interchanged God bless

found ventin shouts and cheers, which
were taken up by the crowds outside

Clays appearance. He was surrounded

The soft, fine white flour will not
give as large an amount of muscle,
bone or nerve making food as the whole
wheat flour, which constitutes in itself
a complete life sustainer. In selecting
flour choose that which is dark in color
and free from bran. The best bread
flours in the market are of yellowish
white tinge, rather granulated, and do
not easily pack. They make a strong
and elastic dough. Though not whole
wheat lours they are decidedly the
best of the white brands. After select
ing the flour the next important thing
is to have good, strong, sweat and
pure yeast. The compressed cakes are
good and convenient. and will do the
work much more quickly than ten
times the amount of home made or
bakers yeast. When setting bread to
rise stand your bread pan In another of
warm water; cover the two 90 that the
moisture will pass over the top of the
dough at an even temperature of sew

The Stimulating Bath.

There are few women who appreci
ate the luxury Of bathing with the &C.
compartment of perfumed waters and
all the modern refinements of the toilet.
A vast majority .of persons take their
bath merely as a means of personal
cleanliness.
Our most intelligent and able doc
tors now commend a daily bath in all
but exceptional cases. The fear of fire
quent bathing is superstition like the
fear Of night air and other things which
we're supposed to be evil because they
were unfamiliar. There are few people
who do not find the daily sea bath an
agreeable tonic, yet there are multi.
tudes who hesitate to continue such
baths in their own homes after they
have left the seaside. The truth is that
daily bathing in any water is in iEsef
refreshing and agreeable SO long as the
individual is in health, and it is Just
the tonic that weak, nervous women
need.
The best time to bathe is usually
early in the morning and the best
temperature for person in health is
about seventy degrees, or the tempera-
ture of the room In which the bath is
taken. Such morning dip should not
be continued longer than from three to
five minutes, and should be followed
by brisk rubbing with friction towels,
in order to put the skin in a glow.
A great many persons always add a
cup of 'Gock salt dissolved in lit
tie warm water to their daily bath. 1t
tends to prevent chill. A little per-
fumed alcohol is also used fof the same
reason. A bag of bran and orris root,
soaked in the water, gives to the ba.her
the faint, fresh fragrance of violets,
though it has no special hygiene value.
When a person feels chilly after
bathing 1t Is a sure indication that
there has been no reaction of the skin
that it is not safe to indulge in so cold
a bath. Such persons should take
baths at night at tepid temperature.

The Election LAWS.

Citizens of the First District of this
county had their first experience with
the new election law Thursday of last
week. The secret ballot did not cause
as much comment as the red tape and
evident ease with which citizens could
be disfranchised. The whole matter is
in the hands of the officer who can, BY
slight movement of his finger and
thumb, either exclude OF admit vote.
There was no complaint about the Of.
ficials holding the election; the law
itself was the cause Of complaint, and
had 1t been especially constructed for
the purpose of disfranchising citizens
1t could not be more effective in the
hands of the INSCRIPTIONS. Education
or intelligence amounts to nothing. as
some Of the best citizens lost their votes
as the law was interpreted here. and
we do not question the construction Of
the officers. When the fact Is consider.
ed that the Governor of the State ap.
points either directly or indirectly ev-
cry election officer in the State, the
true facts Of the law can be appreciated.
We are emphatically and uncompro-
misingly opposed to the election laws
passed by the 80 called reform Legis
lature. We are not alone in this but
say that we believe that a majority of
all the voters of this county, irrespeo.
tive Of party, are so or would be II they
could see the workings of this law. We
have never opposed secret ballot or
any law this is intended or will prevent
fraud, but such denominations as we be.
lieve this law to be is a digrace to the
statute books of any State. Coyington

JOHN sHERMAN's FAMILY.
How He Received His Wife and Twins Many
Years Ago

How He Received His Wife and Twins Many
Years Ago.
An old acquaintance of John Sher-
man sends the following to the Chica
60 Inter Ocean:
As most Of us know, Mr.. and Mrs.
Sherman were childless. A time came
when, after much consideration and
thought, they decided to adopt child
and heir. Mrs. Sherman requested
some Of her intimate friends to assist
in the search of desirable infant, one
honestly and gently born. and without
parents to follow ON afterward and
embarrass. A friend in New York sub.
sequently telegraphed her to come at
once and take her choice OF two beau.
tiful babies. There was great excite.
ment in the Sherman home pending
Mrs. Sherman's trip to New York after
the baby. On the next day she tele.
graphed her husband: "Will be home
this afternoon. Send carriage to the
depot. " The carriage went. and the
Senator remained at home, walking
the floor, looking at his watch, watch
ing each carriage as it came in sight.
The train was little late. He was be.
coming nervously anxious.
Finally the carriage hove in sight;
he marched out to meet 1t at the curb,
threw open the door. There was Mrs.
Sherman and nurse. Each stepping
out with baby in arms. Such an ex-
preston as came over that stern Sher.
man face was never seen before. 1t
could not be described. He was at q
loss for words for minute or two and
and finally was able to stammer: wife
what does this meant" She replied:
Husband they were 30 pretty and so
much alike that l could not make a
choice, and 30 selected BOTH" They
were twin girl babies. For the next
few days it was show to watch Mr..
Sherman as he enjoyed and caressed
the newcomers. One of twins sickened
and died within few weeks, and the
other is now "his daughter, Mrs. Nc.
Cullom with whom he is visiting.

MAKING SMALL CHEESE,
Seven Pounds Is an Excellent Weigh
for Family Use,

for Family Use.
A great deal of inquiry has been made
this season for some means by which
families with perhaps only two or
three cows could make full-cream
cheese of their milk whenever they
might for any reason choose to do so.
Families want cheese as well as butter.
Sometimes butter is very low, saws
Practical Farmer, and again the wealth

er to make a good quality of butter,
because he has not the necessary con-
venienccs for keeping milk and cream
at the proper temperature. At such
times and under such circumstances,
il the milk could easily be made into
Il good quantity of cheese at home, it
would be matter of much Importance,
not only in the north, but especially in
the south, where, as a rule, ice is not
to be had to aid in butter-making. The
Pennsylvania agricultural college has
been working on the line of making
small cheese to meet the exigency of
these conditions. They have been MAX
ing cheese of about seven pounds
weight. This makes cheese of good
size for handling and for family
use. 1t is reported that Prof. Hayward,
of that institution, says there has been
ready sale for all that has been made
in that vicinity, and more could have
been sold. The price received is 10
cents pound, equal to 90 cents for
butter.
