REPUBLICAN
Prosperity Again Demonstrated BY
Another Cali For Bonds.

The 1893 panic was found in full
force by Cleveland when elected,
and he found Republican plates
made to issue bonds when he went
into office.
In 1907 another Republican pan
ic which would have been called
Democratic if Bryan had have been
elected was in full force and the
following news item tells the story;
Washington, Nov. 7. An issue
of $50,000,000 2 per cent bonds will
be put on the market shortly to put
United States treasury in a more
satisfactory condition. More mon
ey is needed for the payment of
the ordinary expenses of the gov
eminent than is being taken in at
the custom houses and the internal
revenue tax collectors offices.
The issue will be of Panama Ca
nal bonds. Theoretically the mon
ey will be used in paying for the
construction of that amazingly ex-
pensive waterway. Actually it will
90 into the general till and be used
for general purposes.

Rural Reuters.

The patrons on all rural routes
out of Pattonsburg Daviess county,
disagreeably surprised the other
day when the postal officials or
dered service stopped. 1t is easy
to understand why the news was
disagreeable but why it was sur
prise not SO easily understood.
Do the patrons of rural routes think
their Uncle is talking through his
hat when he warns them that bad
roads and rural free delivery can
not and will not get along together!

feat can be traced to the playing
the Monroe team is very positive

Useful Little Contrivances.

New bread may be cut quite
evenly if the knife is very slightly
heated.
A good way to improve a sand
road is to spread a coating of clay
over it with manure spreader.
To clean a spice mill grind two
tablespoonful of rice through the
mill, and all traces of the spice will
be removed.
Don't neglect that crack in the
roof too long. Shove in a single
and fasten it down with a nail;
then you'll feel easy.
Sprinkle salt or cloves on the
shelves of pantries whre ants are
troublesome, for both are objection
able to these insects.
Discolored cups and dishes used
for baking can be made as new by
rubbing the brown stains with
flannel dipped into whiting.
Coal tar and wagon grease may
be remoAed by rubbing with a little
lard and letting stand awhile, tnen
wash with soap and water.
If small linen bag filled with
camphor is hung on a small nail
on the inside of the piano case it
will prevent moths from getting in
to the felt.
4 Paint stains on the floors may be
secured off by soaking them for
while in turpentine or benzine and
then rubbing them with pumice
stone or glass paper.
i Painting the tools is one way
to preserve them. Paint the show
els and mold boards with axle
grease and the rest with real paint.
1t avoids rust and decay.
! Steep some tea leaves in water
for an hour. then strain them out
Z and use the liquid for washing the
vanished wood. This decoration
gives the woodwork cleaner,
fresher look than when washed
with only soap and water.
To make paper stick to metal use
a strong solution of washing soda.
: While hot dip the metal in, and
when clean take it out and rub
with a soft cloth. Apply onion
juice to the metal, press the paper
smoothly over it and it viii adhere
lik4 glue. and it win be almost inn
possible to separate the two.

Farmers Should Get Busy.
Now is good time for the farm
ers to drag the roads, and put them
in fine condition. The city of
Plattsburg is going to lose the rural
routes because the citizens do not
keep the roads in good condition.
Liberty Advance.
Some of Them Are Decidedly.

smaller than they are now. Beth

Does the hair grow after DEATH
This question has been asked the
doctors for a long time and many
cases have cited to prove that il
does. Perhaps no better case is or
record than that of the corpse O.

teen years ago at Mulberry grave
yard, ten miles northwest of Kinks

urday by j. o. Long and reburied
