How to Wash Channels.

Every one does not know the secret of washing chamois skin so as to make it as good as new. Wet the chamois in a weak solution of washing soda and water, rubbing plenty of white soap into 1t. Let it lie for two hours, then rub between the hands un- til clean. Rinse in weak solution of soda and water with little soap shak- en in. If rinsed in pure water, it be- comes hard It is the small particles of soap that give it silky softness. Wiring in dry towel and dry quickly, pulling and brushing well.

He has got bad habit of pushing and hold inp the runnar off and about the only chance the runner has got is to slide feet first and slide hard. He got away with his trick twice Saturday. but the next time Parmalee slid into him, tip ping him over.-Winsted Citizen.

 Now is the time of year to cut down the wild carrots. The law is very plain but has not been enforced in this town as we'll as elsewhere and the carrots are spreading fast and will soon be great nuisance to our farmers. The law is as follows: Every owner or possessor of lands shall out down all wild carrots and Canada thistles growing thereon, or in the highway adjoining, so often as to prevent their going to seed; and upon failure 50 to do,any pers on aggrieved, or any citizen of the town wherein the lands are situated. may complain to any grand juror of said town, who shall thereupon. forthwith notify such owner or possessor of such complaint; and said grand juror shall be paid for such service from the treasury of the town ten cents for each mile of travel in giving such notice. If said owner or possessor shall still neglect to comply with the provisions of this sect ion, he shall be fined not more than five dollars, for each and every day of such neglect after said notice and the expenses of the grand juror who served the notice shall be included in the cost of the pro- secution.
 In recent issue of the Amenia Times the Sharon correspondents expressed some doubts regarding the snake story as told by l. N Bartram, stating that it was probably all imaginary-that no snake was there-that Pasco, the watch dog, was in the buggy and Pasco said he saw no snake and Pasco never tells lie. Now the writer of the article must have had some experience along the line of seeing snakes or toads-or at least mice ladies often see mice when there are none thara We have bnan fold that methiglin will produce the imaginary singing of bees in the head-seeing spi- ders and mice. However this may be, 1t is fact that the correspondent does keep bees. The readers of the News may be interested to know what are the actual facts. While I was driving in my buggy in the southern portion of the village and opposite the residence of Arthur Duane, large snake appeared just in front of the front buggy wheel The wheel passed over it. The thought came quick You have got it this time. J The next instant the snake was winding about my body in the buggy seat Not caring for such company at once va cated the seat, the snake passed off the seat and crawled under Pasco. the dog, where he remained until Mir. Egan, my foreman, came and assisted me in killing it. This is the entire snake story and be assured I was clothed in my right mind.
