Washing Baby's FIanneIs.

The dear babies fannels must be
washed more carefully than those Of
adults. as they are usually more delicate
and expensive and need gentle treatment.
Use water as hot as your hands can COM
fortabIy bear, and put the little fiannels in
a tub separately from others, and wash
them through two hot waters, making the
suds of Fairy Soap, with little Gold
Dust Washing Powder added to whiten
and soften the texture and fiber of the

and stretch each little piece in shape,
and hang securely on the line outdoors
to dry The work must be done speedily;
never let the garments lie a moment
longer than necessary.

We find that there are enough candi-

again that fusion will never be defeated
until fusion candidates are defeated at

1t is idle to try 10 minimize the I'M
portance Of the election Of Carter h.
Harrison in its bearing on national
politics. Harrison has developed ele-
ments of positive strength. He is al
ready national figure, ana must be

We do not say he will be formid.
able opponent of Mr. Bryan for the
nomination in l9O0-Mr Bryan's great
fight in 1896 has given him powerful
hold on the Democratic masses-but
Hsrrisons reelection has made him,
too. a conspicuous figure. 1t has given
the Republicans a turn they cannot
disguise. and they regard him in his
true light as a dangerous Opponet The
Chicago Tribune, one of the most in
fuenlial Republican journal in the
West, is this early in the field warn
ing the Republicans that Tanner must
not be renominated. If he is, says the
Tribune. Garter Harrison will be the
next Governor OF Illinois. The Demo-
crat who is elected governor OF a state
which casts twenty -four electoral votes
and which votes have gone for a Re-
publican Presidential candidate stead
lily for forty years, with the exception
of the Democratic landslide in 1892, is
a man who can do the party some SER
vice
Mr.. Bryan is great man in some
respects, a good man and an honest
man, but he is not greater than the
Democratic Party, and the interests of
the party should not be subservient to
his ambition. If the young man who
has been elected Mayor Of Chicago, for
a second time is the most available
man in 1900, we are entitled TO him.
Mr.. Bryan has said as much. He has
said, 1--WE are entitled to the most
available man, and we are. When
1900 rolls around. if Mr.. Harrison is
more available than Nj. Bryan, we
should have him. We do not say that
such will be the case, but it may be,
and if it is, blind devotion to a leader
should not cloud our judgment nor al
low US to do anything not best Tor the
party and the country.
