Law and Honor Upheld.

More than two months ago the
then Superintendent OF the Western
Kentucky Asylum for the Insane,
DR.. e. b Mccormick, called the
attention of the Board of Commits
sioners to the fact that a lawless
state of affairs existed in sthe insti-
tuition over which he presided.
These disclosures were laid before
Gov. Beckham by the Board and
an investigation asked. No inves-
tigation was made, but DR.. McCor-
mick was asked to resign his po-
sition, which he declined to do. The
Board then unanimously demanded
an investigation. This was still de-
MED and DR.. Mccormick was re-
moved from Office without being Civ

though the BoardOf Commissioners,
the business men of Hopkinsville, a
mass meeting of citizens and ninety
per cent of the employees of the Asy-
lum, all sent protest after protest to
the Governor. The KENTUCKIAN at
the time warned the Governor that
the scandal was too big to be sup
pressed and that it could not escape
the attention of the grand jury. Cir

with complete loss of memory.
The members of the jury were sub

A SPOT BlEACHER.
M VIII Clean the Piano Keys and
Take Out Ink Stains.

To keep piano keys clean and prevent
the discoloration of the ivory, dampen n
piece Of muslin with alcohol and with it
rub the keys. The alcohol can do no sort
of damage to the ivory, and if it is fire.
quently applied the keys will stand in
want of no other treatment; but, II they
have already begun to turn yellow, then
try rubbing them with q piece of cotton
flannel wet in cologne water. Even old
and discolored ivory may be rejuvenated,
no matter what the cause of the discol-
grafton nor of how long standing. An
acid, applied repeatedly, will usually re-
store the keys to their original wilderness.
Cotton flannel cloths, wet with saturat-
ed solution of oxalic acid and water and
laid upon the keys, will remove oil stains.
Care should always be taken in the use
Of such bleacher as this that it does not
touch anything from which the color is
not to be removed, for it does its work
with more certainty than discretion.
This same solution of oyalic acid and
water is sometimes used in removing ink
spots especially when the ink spot is on
paper, as on the margin of a good book.
One teaspoonful of the oxalic acid and
water to make saturated solution are
the only needfuls. Dip a finger in the
solution and press 1t gently into the ink
spot II this is done repeatedly and with
out rubbing the paper, the Objectionable
blot will eventually fade from view. An
other method of removing ink marks
from paper is to mix a teaspoonful of
chloride of lime with water just sutfi-
cient to cover it. Apply this with soft
cloth, merely pattng the spot AS either
intentional writing or mere blots will
yield before this sort of treatment. care
must be exercised in its use. Printing
ink Is, however, quite safe from the as
saults of either lime or the acid.
Thumb marks on the pages of books
may be removed by first rubbing the spots
with soft bits of stale bread. Whatever
remains of the marks after that treat
ment may need gentle touching up with
a bit Of cloth dampened in the oxalic
acid and water solution. If by any mis-
chance large and obnoxious grease spot
should fall upon page or some pages of
a book, 1t may be removed. Put piece
of blotting paper under the spot and an
other piece of blotting paper over it and
then add the weight of n warm iron.
Much Of the grease will come out and be
absorbed by the paper. Heat very lit
tie essential oil of turpentine till 1t Is very
hot, then apply it to the still warm and
greasy leaf Of the book. spreading it on
both sides with q clean brush. More
clean plotting paper and warm iron will
complete the cure.-New York Sun.

Gods Kindness,

When we recall what God has given
US in excess of all necessity for the
purpose of pleasing us, let US remem-
Der that we have taken but the first
and lowest step leading up to a vast
and glorious subject. If God has done
so much for us here on earth, what
will He not do for us hereafter in
heaven? If God is so generous now,
what will He be in the world to come?
The eye looks forth upon the streams
and meadows and trees, and up to the
skies, all so full of beauty, and reports
that these material images are en-
ployed to describe that better country
which is reserved as our eternal home.
That heavenly world is not described
in the dull lines of didactic prose. All
the pleasant things in the universe are
made to complete the promise of that
ultimate enjoyment. Now it is land
scape-green pastures, still waters, the
tree of life with leaf and fruit-every
image of contentment and delight
Now rises an imperial city-its gates
of pearl, its foundations of precious
stones. its streets of gold, and all the
nations pouring their glory into it.
Now it is our Fathers house with
many mansions; festive board, with
unmeasured plenty; with songs of joy
and garlands of gladness upon the
head.-Rev. William Adams in Uni
yersalist
