Even had the State department
given Mr.. Cushman this information,
he had no right to give it to the pub
lie without express permission from
his informant. Instead of roaring
that the Assistant Secretary of State
did actually give him the information,
as he is doing, the best thing Mr..
Cushman can do is to crawl into his
shell and keep still until he learns the
ropes and knows what is best to tell
and what is best to keep to himself.
The probabilities are that within a
year our Congressman will know
much more than he does now-we
hope go at least.

Women Farmers.

\ Topeka, Kansas, newspaper de-
votes page to the enumeration OF
plucky women in Kansas who are sue
cessfully operating farms. Mrs. Anna
Lembach, near Erie, during the last
twelve years has accumulated $4,000
in cash and paid off mortgage OF ST.
$50. Mrs. Sarah Butcher, near Douglas,
has managed a 450-acre farm since
the death of her husband, ten years
ago, and has also managed to save
$4,000. Mrs. J. o. Martin at Akin
has cleared off a big mortgage in ten
years. Miss Mary Barker is the lead
ing stock-raiser of Barker county, her
farm comprising 5000 acres and her
annual sales of cattle being 1000 head
Mrs. Mary J. Reese, of Linn county,
has paid off 4 big mortgage on her
quarter section and is now loaning
money to men in her neighborhood
who don't know how to farm. As to
the experience of Mrs. Lembach, first
named, the article says:
Mrs. Lembach put her hand literally
to the pillow, and until her children
grew into manhood and womanhood
she was her own hired man and her
own maid-of-all work. She plowed
and planted and sowed and reaped,
not by proxy, but with her own hands.
She kept her children in school,
comfortably clothed and fed, and did
double stint every workday of her life.
She never stopped to listen to the
bowling of the "seven DEVILS" she
never stood in the doorway watching
and waiting for the OCTOPUS of Wall
street" to come prancing down the
road. She just tended her knittin' /"
and in seven years the mortgage was
a grim recollection. The mountain
of debt had disappeared from her per-
spective. She still manages the farm
on which she accumulated $4,000
practically unaided, in twelve years.
The success of these women is an
object lesson to some men in Kansas
and elsewhere who are continually
complaining of the hard work and
poor pay of farming. The man be-
hind the hoe has much to learn from
them in the way OF hustling.

WHERE TAXES ARE UNKNOWN.
BlissfuI Condition in an Island Off the Coast Of
Maine.
Portland (Me.) Press.

Portland (Me.) Press.
Lond's island, on the coast of Maine,
near historic Pemaquid, in the Lincoln
county town of Bristol, is one OF the
very few places on earth where there
are no taxes. This island, otherwise
known as Muscongus, was overlooked
when Maine became a State and was
put into no town or county. 1t is
said that during the war the people
cast their votes for time in the town
of Bristol until some election officer
discovered the illegality of the vote
The island was first settled by John
Loud, deserter from British man
of-war, and his great grand children
are now prominent inhabitants. BY
voluntary contributions school is
maintained, the parents paying 81 fol
each child. The school term averages
eight months in each year, and there
is an average attendance of eighteen
scholars. Catching bait for the fish

Housekeeping Accounts.

The habit of keeping a strict &C.
count of every farthing received and
spent is one of the most effectual
checks to unnecessary outlay. If it is
to be of any service this account must
be kept regularly and precisely. The
entries, however trifling, should be
made daily, and at the end OF the
week the sum total on either side
should be added up and balanced, care
being taken to notice whether the
cash in hand agrees with the state
ment of account. At certain fixed
dates, such as the end of each week or
the end of each month, the details of
payment should he examined, and
each item carried out and placed
under its respective head, such as
meat, bread, milk, beer, etc. By this
means a comparison can be easily
made between the expenses Of one
week and those of another, and excess
or unnecessary expenditure can be at
once discovered and checked. When
the ready-money system is not adopted
in the family, and bills are sent in for
payment, separate book should be
kept, in which an entry can be made
OF every article supplied for household
use; and this book should be compared
with the tradesmen's accounts when
they are presented for payment, so
that any discrepancy between the two
may be pointed out and rectifed.

THE CIGARETTE BEETLE.
II Is Tiny Insect That InfestS and
Ruins Tobacco Made Up for
the Market.

"Oh, no." said the tobacconist to
customer, who had just handed back
package of cigarettes across the coun-
ter, those cigarettes are perfectly
fresh. / received them from the fac
tory less than a fortnight ago, but /
am not surprised to hear you say they
are old stock"
Each one of the cigarettes was per-
forated from one end TO the other with
small holes and the paper had a yellow
appearance.
"Those holes" continued the mer-
chant, ARE the work of the most trou-
hlesome insect known TO the trade.
The entomologists at the agricultural
department have.a long scientific name
for him, but to us he is known as the
cigarette beetle He infests all sorts
of tobacco, but appears to be especially
fond of cigarettes. Thousands of Gig
arettes are ruined by the little pest
and he gets in his work on all kinds of
dried tobacco.
Nor is his peculiar appetite APP
peased by tobacco alone, for he feeds
with equal relish on rhubarb, cayenne
pepper, ergot, tumeric, and all sort
of stuff like that The beetle damages
cigars and cigarettes principally by
boring them out and making round
holes in the wrappers so they viii not
draw. Leaf tobacco is rendered useless
for wrapping purposes by being pune
tured with holes made by both the
larvae and the beetles. Filters and
fine cut tobacco suffer from the reduc-
ton of their substance by the actual
amount consumed by the larvae
There is one case on record where
the beetle was accidentally introduced

/ co. In a very short time-about three

DAZED ENGLAND WITH AN AID.
Tbe Original Progenitor of Liberal
Advertising Still Living in
New York state.

Some of the nabobs of the present
day advertising world who think they
are "the only pebbles on the beach
ought TO take a trip down to Pough-
keepsie and listen TO the advertising
narratives an old man there may relate
TO them. And tie old man can sub
stantiate his narratives with facts and
proofs, and is not mere yarn spinner
like many OF his degenerate successors.
His name is De Linton Wing, and years
ago ne won for himself the title of
.Uroaenitor of liberal advertising" by
his extensive advertising of famous
brand of flour of which he was the pro-
prietor-the Julian mills flour.
1t is said that al one time he was
worth 100000 900, but lost his fortune
partly by speculation in buying news
papers.
One of Mr.. Wings greatest advertis-
ing feats was the insertion IN
the London Times, much to the sur
prise Of the slow-going Britons, OF
full-page advertisement of his famous
brand of -four. 1t was claimed as Joke
that Mr.. Wing, who alone had the secret
and the patent for the manufacture 81
the Julian mills -four, introduced in the
ingredients a moistening of alcohoi ana
hops that gave pungency upon which
many family was mildly eXhilirated
every morning at breakfast, and he had
as a part of his business accounts let
ter from Lord Palmerston, prime minis
ter of England. in which the latter ex-
presses the thanks of Queen Victoria
and her ministry for bags of his flour,
because, as the minister SAID, OF It's
clevating effects at each meal.
In the advertisement in the London
Times Mr.. Wing had such striking lines
as these: Julian Mills see The Queen;
"Palmerston gets his Julian cakes early
and saves England's honor by reason OF
the daring spirit they infuse into him.
In the middle of the page was a wood
cut-a most terrible innovation for the
London Times-of Mr.. Wing seated be-
tween the queen and Lord Palmerston,
who are both begging him to come to
England and live an Windsor. To this
Mr.. Wing responds: 81 am an American
sovereign, greater than the British
crown"
One Of Mr.. Wings greatest enter
prises was during the great celebration
of 1858 over the Atlantic cable. Albany
turned out in great procession, at the
head of which was the great wagon of
d. l.. Wing made entirely of flour bar
rels. Sixteen flour barrels served as
wheels and thousands of barrel slaves
formed an awning over the body of the
wagon, on which 80 young ladies in
bakers dress were conducting mimic
bakery of the Julian cakes. Thousands
of Albanians were gratuitously served
with bread that day from the Julian
mills -four and at the dome of nearly
every poor family in the ward in which
Mr.. Wing lived were left that night a
barrel Of -four and photograph of
Wing and Queen Victoria. = Albany
