FRIDAY, NOVEMBER "a, 1889.

Of all the good tidings that the
story of recent elections brings
none is better than the home news.
For the home city and county Of
Mckinley and Day send greetings
to the nation. Their people have
spoken with renewed emphasis for
American prosperity, for American
progress, for the happiness of the
American home, and for American
loyalty to the flag that, wherever
it floats, always stands for liberty
and freedom, The neighbors and
friends Of the President, who know
him best as a man of the truest
type, moved by the highest mo-
tives and impelled by the loftiest
patriotism, give him an ever in
creasing support.-Canton Co.,

Output of the KlOndike.

No one will ever know exactly
how much gold was taken from the
klondike fields the past season.
Since the English government i'm
posed a royalty, the miners have
adopted all sorts of rules to evade
the law. It is rather difficult to
dodge taxes, but it is more difficult
to dodge a bad cold and the grip at
this time of year. When the sys-
tenn is weakened by such attacks,
and the blood becomes thin and
impoverished, the best medicine to
take is Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. This remedy builds up the
system. Besides regulating di-
g%estion, it overcomes constipation.
1t is good for the kidneys and liver
too, stimulating these organs into
the proper performance Of their
functions. Nothing is so good for
malaria.

The smut, Prof. Bolley says, has its

of only about one cent per acre.

Present Dav Thoughts:
A LAYMAN's THANKSGIVING.
By "Or0syen0r,"

A LAYMAN 5 THANKSGIVING.
For the truth that neither men
nor nations a live unto them
selves, but that having gotten wis
dom they must pass it on in order
to get from it the greatest gain;
for the recent proving to ourselves
that we have been one hundred
years in a crucible Of testing to
show whether fit or unfit to lead
others into fuller life and greater
freedom; for all hearts that are
now solemnized to search within
our national heart for weakness
and evil to purge it and then to go
the way Of Thy bidding, we thank
Thee, Thou Ruler of nations.
For all our countrymen who at
their various posts are doing their
own tasks, finding no excuse for
themselves in the neglects Of
others, seeking no reason to lay
down heavy burdens because Of
others who bear lighter ones; for
all who understand that not all are
called to the same work, but that
each by doing his own we'll makes
for the united grandeur and pro-
gress Of the nation; for all those
who have vision enough to see
that no public task is so small as
to be unimportant in it's effect, we
thank Thee, Thou Distributor of
burdens.
For all the unnumbered thou
sands Of our women who make this
a nation noteworthy for homes
where peace reigneth and progress
is the watchword; for all mothers
who lay themselves upon an altar
of sacrifice that to their children
may be given a better intellectual
start than they themselves receiv-
ed; for all mothers who realize
that each child has from birth a
better endowment and therefore
needs a different training; for all
wives who understand their hus-
bands and thus enjoy the true
union, for all ideas Of gentleness
impaired to men by women, we
thank Thee, Thou creator of sex.
Fol all those who dare to pay
but little heed to the crashing
noises or evil in the world, know
ing that quiet forces do not vaunt
themselves; for all those who have
ears keen to heed the still, small
voice Of good in the world and
who have faith that it shall be
audible to all Of a later age when
all attempt to do all that they
ought; for all who arediscontented
with the world as they find it and
who give their discomfort form by
striving after better things, we
thank Thee, Thou Inspirer of up
ward effort.
For Jul widespread Country
with a population drawn from
every corner Of the globe as if to
test the elasticity and the strength
of u free institutions; for the
strange r%estlessness Of Jul people
as they move hither and thither,
doing away with sectional distrust;
for our increasing influence among
the nations of the earth; for our
never failing harvest of good and
great men, followed in Thy watch
full Providence by a seed-time of
men equally good and great; for
all that we hope to be, yet are not
but strive for, we thank Thee.

WEATHER FROGS.
Small Living DRrOmeters Which Are
Imported from Germany In
Great Demand.

Attached to glass-sided box seen In
marked: Weather Frogs" Within
the box, perched on two long wooden
rods, placed lengthwise of It and nearer
the top than the bottom, like the higher
perches in bird cage, were a number
of the weather frogs themselves. Some
just then were brown and one was
green. They were little tree frogs of
a kind found through Europe, those In
the window having been imported from
Germany.
When full grown these tiny tree frogs
may be little more than an inch In
length. They take the color of what
ever object they may be resting on
brown for wood, green if on leaf;
placed in blue glass jar they will be-
come blue. They may be heard but not
seen, SO closely in color do they re-
semble whatever they may have
perched upon. They are called weather
frogs because at the approach of rainy
or changeable weather they jump into
the water; at the approach of clear
"ChthCA thCg COuic Oub again.
In captivity the weather frog is kept
in glass jar or globe, which is covered
at the top with wire screen. Water
is put at the bottom OF the jar, and at
a convenient height is placed something
for the little frog to jump up on. The
weather frog is fed on flies in summer,
and in winter on meal worms; its food
must be alive. Weather frogs sell here
at retail for 20 cents apiece. Consider
able numbers of them are brought to
this country. A New York importer
of birds and animals has sold within a
few days 1000 of these little tree frogs,
out of 5000 imported. They are sold
to dealers in various parts of the coun-
try, some of them going from here as
far away as San Francisco.-N. Y. Sun.

friends who are soon to become brides.
1t Is quite the correct thing now for
each soon-to-be bride to meet all her
young lady friends In this formal, and
yetinformal, way and say last good-by
to the days of companionship before
her marriage, and poor, indeed, is the
girl who cannot find friend to give
reception in her honor.
But 1t is not alone the to-be bride that
is entertained in this way; that is but
one of the features of the present de-
sire for this form of entertainment.
The afternoon tea, or reception, or
whatever you like to call it, is equally
popular with the mammas as with the
daughters. In one way they resemble
the teas of old, and that is in the mat
ter of gossip. Every choice morsel that
in any way becomes public is worked
over and enlarged upon at these femi-
nine gatherings. 1t is probably this
desire for chance to gossip that helps
to maintain the popularity of the after
noon tea more than any other one thing,
for the French woman is proverbial
gossip.

Some Smart Cta Jackets
and Pretty cea Gowns.

OF the clothes that are suitable for
these gatherings, especially those suit
able for the hostess, none are more pop
ular than the dainty tea gowns that are
being shown, and the matine jacket,
which by the way, is one of the prettiest
things. Of the season? Not that they
are entirely new, for they are not, but
the styles in which they are offered are
more attractive than ever before.
Some of these elaborate creations for
wear at afternoon teas and receptions
of all kinds will interest readers of my
letter, so 1 will give few.
The first of these shall be one of the
prettiest OF the matinee jackets that L
have seen. 1t is called the "Musketeer."
The name is given it on account of he
shape of the collar and cuffs. 1t is
made of turquoise blue silk, en-
broidered in white, and has q scalloped
front, and scallops around the bottom.
The scallops are edged with beautiful
soft lace, and the "Musketeer" collar
and cuffs are heavily embroidered in
white silk and have deep founce of
the lace around. 1t is fastened at one
side with large white pearl button.
Another one of the matinee jackets
Is made of a geranium pink cashmere,
with killed founce of geranium silk,
and insertion to head the founce of yell
lowish lace. 1t has killed flounce
around the "Musketeer" collar and
cuffs, with ali under fiounce of real
lace. 1t fastens at the side with tiny
rosettes made of the geranium pink

Tbs Hfttrnccn cta as
II Is Known In Paris.

heard some one say some time ago
that the days of the afternoon tea was
past In Paris, but | do not believe that
same person would repeat that state
ment to-day in view of the number of
teas and informal receptions of all
kinds that are forming the chief fea-
lures of Paris social life after the close
of the Lenten season. True these teas
are not the teas of old. They are far
too elaborate to be classed with those
that amused and entertained society
but few years ago, and yet they are
afternoon teas just the same.
But for the afternoon tea or informal
reception of to-day the devotee of fash
ion must prepare with as much care as
though it were social event of the
greatest Importance. To be unprepared
to attend these events properly gowned
is as bad as to be unable to attend a
dinner in suitable clothing.
One of the things that is making the
afternoon tea especially popular this
season is the fad of the young ladies TO
formally bid farewell to their girl
