Household Hints.

Spirits OF turpentine will cleanse
and brighten patent leather.
New wall paperings should never
be put on over an old coat. Microbes
will be sure to live and flourish if the
plan is pursued.
French drapery for parlor or recep-
ton room has a satin over curtain
with draped valance, and is looped
back over straight hanging lace cur
tains.
The addition of little powdered
borax to cold starch tends to give the
linen extra stiffness, and a little tur-
pentine put into the boiled starch adds
lustre.
Bites of feas and the stings of mos
quitoes or bees will be relieved by
rubbing with menthol pencil OF
bathing with alcohol, ammonia or
camphor.
Few people realize that the most
important part of house, if one
wishes a healthy habitation, is the
ground under it, seeming paradox,
but nevertheless true.
You can make your own fly paper
by adding to melted resin enough
sweet oil or lard to make it of the
consistency of molasses. Spread on
sheets of white writing paper.
The so-called sash curtains are not
what was recognized as such few
years ago. Then they only covered
the lower sash, now they reach from
the upper sash to the window sill.
Be careful about pouring boiling

NO WOMAN Is EXEMPT.

Regularity is a matter of Importance
in every woman's life. Much pain is,
however, endured in the belief that it
is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth it is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble.
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation of woman's health is
Il perfectly normal and regular per-
Torrance of natures function. The
statement we print from Miss GER
TRUDE SKIES, of Eldred, Pa, is echoed
in every city, town and hamlet in this
country. Read what she says:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I feel like a
new person since following your adj
vice, and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full menstruation and leucorrhea. l
was nervous and had spells of being
confused. Before using your remedies
/ never had any faith in patent medi-
cines. ! now wish to say that l never
had anything do me so much good for
painful menstruation rs Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; also would
say that your Sanative Wash has cured
me of leucorrhea. / hope these few
words may help suffering women"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia e. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department OF
her great business, treating by letter
as many as a hundred thousand alllng
women during a single year.
All suffering women are invited te
write freely to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn
Mass, for advice about their health.

A most dainty dessert for few is n
pineapple ice made of the fresh fruit,
which Is scooped out of the apple,
leaving a thin crust which forms a
bowl. The end of the apple nearest
the top is cut off for this purpose,
leaving the end for handle.
This bowl thus formed can then
rest in a nest of another piny, spiky
end of another pine, the contents of
which are used with those of the first
for the making of the ice. After the
ice is prepared, it is put into the APP
pie bowl, the cover is replaced, and
the whole set on ice until ready to be
served. The best setting is in the
freezer.

England has had sailor King"
within the recollection of many of our
older readers. When did the United
States ever have a sailor President?
When, at any time, was q sailor seri-
ously talked of by the politicians and
newspapers for that Office? It's really
worth thinking about-this discrimina-
ton against our laureled victors whose
victories are won on the water. Our
wars have made many Presidents. The
Revolution gave the country President
Washington. The War Of 1912 gave 1T
President Jackson. The Indian wars
gave it the first President Harrison
The Mexican campaign gave 1t Presi-
dent Taylor. The War for the Union
gave 1t President Grant. Hayes, Gar
field, Benjamin Harrison, William Nc
Kinley were helped toward the White
House by their war records. But every
man of them all did his fighting on
land. In the early years of the repub-
lie, the "stout old Commodores" con-
tributed much more glorious pages to
its history than the Generals, and q
good many more of them. Yet which
one of the Commodores ever got with
In seeing distance Of the White House
Which one of them go much as dreamed
of casting On ambitious glance in that
direction? Farragut the Admiral, was
as illustrious figure as Grant, the
General. He had a far more striking
and picturesque personality. His fame
is no less immortal. The people won
dered delightedly at his matchless ex-
plolts. They honored him In their
hearts as he deserved to be honored
But they never even thought of max
ing him President nor did he ever
dream that they would. The man who
goes into the American navy for life
bids an everlasting good-by to politica,
ambition at the waters edge. Why Il
should be so seems inexplicable. THAI
it is so cannot be disputed.

writing for q recent magazine, shows
that the great need of our volunteer
army Is trained officers. 1t is estimated
that in OH army Of 100000 men we
would need $4,000 officers The original

provide q reserve of officers who in CIV

with a population but onetenth what 1t
now Is, the maximum number Of cadets
at West Point was fixed at 260. 1t is
only 3T1 to-day. The original purpose
Of the academy has been lost sight Of.
Captain Parker recommends that the
number Of cadets authorized by law be
increased from 81 to 2,200, or that
three military academies be establish
ed, having all told the needed 1900 ca.

and even Genghis Khan, th5 scourga
of Asia, whose ravages extended from
Pekin In the east to Moscow in tho
west, was obliged when invading
northern india to take the circuftous
route via Kashghar and Afghanistani
instead of crossing Thibet. Secure on

GOLD.

The net importation of gold during
the fiscal year closing June 30 1898,
exceed those of any preceding year in
the countrys history, the excess being
s1O4,9S5 5,279, including coin, bullion
and ore. The highest for any preced-
ing year was less than 100000 900;
and in contrast with this excess of
gold is the fact that the imports of
merchandise for the same period are
less than in any year since 1885. The
people are learning fast in the school
of actual business that Republican
promises mean something and that the
excess of gold imports and the reduc-
tion of imports of merchandise are but
the living witnesses of what was
promised by the party management in
1896.

SHIPBUILDING'S REVIVAL.

The war has created shipbuilding
boom in the United States, and the
Maine shipyards again resound with
the sound of the hammer. Taking
time by the forelock, the American
capitalists are getting ready to do the
business which is sure to result from
United States ownership of Cuba and
Porto Rico. They are not waiting un-
til the close of the war and the declar-
alton Of peace between the deliger-
ents. They are acting now, and are
placing their orders with the ship
builders for brigs and schooners of
moderate size. For barges, too, a
good many orders have been given.
In the little town of Bath, Maine, a
dozen barges are already on the stocks
and contracts have been made for
many more. The United States ex-

The Serenade.

The night was dark and thick ming clouds
Went scudding DER the sky;
The wind was moaning piteously,-
l knew a storm was nigh.
Within my heart storm arose
And beat through every vein;
Each wall was answered by the wind
Each throb by drops OF rain.
Thus in my study all alone,
My curtains still urdrawn,
sat and unused on by.gone days
And sighed between each yawn.
Unconscious of the passing time
l sat in deepest thought -
knew not that the storm had ceased
And skies with stars We're fraught
When hark! I know no sweeter sound
Fer stole an mortal ear.
Than that which through my window came
In tones so soft and clear.
No more sat in mournfu mood,
Nor listened to the rain:
I wandered in Elysian fields,
Forgot my woe and pain.
Forgot the world with all its ca res
And thought of joys sublime.
Oh Music! Balm of weary hearts,
Come thou and Gwtll in mine
'Tis 80 in life When thicH.st ciounds
Are gathered DER OR way.

And bring us brightest day

Our trade with Eastern Asia, conti-
mental and island, consists chiefly in
simple articles such as semi-barbarous
nations produce on the one hand and
use on the other. We sell China, min
eral oil, cotton cloth and wheat. We
sell the East Indies mineral oil. To
the more civilized natives on the Pa
cific we sell our iron and steel man
ufactures. Japan, since it has as
sumed place among civilized powers,
buys iron and steel manufactures
from US and so does Australia. The
lesson is that it is directly for the in
terest Of our manufacturers and ex-
porters that Oriental countries shall
become civilized. The more civilized
they are the more of our products they
will buy, and the greater the number
and diversity of products they will re-
puire.

the Death of Two Females.
Saturday evening about nine O'Clock
as Chas. Lundon was enjoying buggy
ride with Lille Kinnard, of Ohio
street. and Jennie Shuman, Of Church
street, the horse became frightened
near the foot of Fifth street, and
started to run away. Lundon jumped
from the buggy, leaving the women
at the mercy of the horse. At some
distance from where Lundon jumped
from the buggy, the women were
thrown out.
Mrs. Kinnard received severe
bruises about the body and she was
rendered unconscious. Miss Shuman
received severe bruises about the face
and limbs and her left wrist was dis
located.
Aid was telephoned for and Marshal
Dye went to the scene of the accident.
The unfortunate victims were taken
to the rooms of Mrs. Kinnard on Ohio
street, where medical assistance was
summoned. Mrs. Kinnard regained
consciousness about eleven o'clock.
