Both of One Mind.

A henpecked gentleman determined
to have a night with his friends against
the will of his wife. He was resolved
that be would go, and she was equally
certain that he should not. He did not
appear, however, and his friends, MISS
ing him, for fun invaded his residence.
There they found both him and his
wife sitting in their chairs fast asleep.
He had given her an opiate that he
might slip away, and she had given
him one that he might not.

E. B, Long Senatorial Nominee.

Mr.. K. B. Long, of Hopkins
Vile, has been nominated for
State Senator Christian and Hop
kins counties on the Republican
ticket and authorizes the an
nouncement of his candidacy in
TUE BEE. This announcement
appears in another column.
Many of our readers know who
Mr.. Long is but to those1who do
not know him we may say that
he is one of Christian county's
foremost citizens, a banker and
man of affairs and that he has
been for the past few years
chairman of the Republican ex-
ecutive committee of Christian
county.
Mr.. Longs friends in Christ
ian predict that his home county
will give him an unusually large
majority and the party leaders
generally are expected to work
together on the theory that it is
possible to control the next leg
islature when very important
matters will be taken up, in
Guiding the matter of redistrict-
ing the State. 1t is a matter of
record that usually the republi-
cans do get together on pinch,
when there seems a chance for
election.
Those who are behind Mr..
Longs candidacy say that will
be the result in this instance,
and predict his election by a
good majority.

NEED A LITTLE SPECIAL CARE.

After to Insure Proper Appearance.

These should always be slightly
starciicd. if left quite limp they will
not keep their appearance any time
and will very soon soil. Muslin pima
foles should be put through stiff
starch and must always be starched
wet. Wiring well and roll in a towel
fer some time before ironing. Those
made OF thicker material may be
slightly dried and then rolled up.
When ironing aprons always COM
mence with the embroidery, pulling it
out well and ironing very carefully.
The rest Of the apron is, as a rule,
very simple to iron. Always keep the
top of the apron at your left-hand side
and iron the material single when pos
sible.
|, If the pinafore is joined up the back,
Iron it double, first the front and then
the back, or iron it on the skirtboard.
II there are tucks along the foot,
stretch them out we'll when ironing to
prevent them dragging. Iron as much
as possible with the thread of the ma
terial. A small iron must be used for
getting into all gathers. Always finish

out all strings and iron round hens on
the wrong side.

SUFFER AND DIE IN a WRECK
Fishermen Have Terrible Experience
Off Coast of Iceland

A terrible tale of shipWrcck was
told by the nine survivors of the crew
or 13 of the Grimsby trawlcr Wash.
lhston, which was wrecked on the
coast OF Iceland on December 20. The
men reached Leith recently, their
hands and feet still showing signs of
thelr suTerings during a blizzard The
'essel was wrecked during a heavy
gale on the rocks near Selvoyr; and
the only boat and two RATS were
washed away. Notwithstanding the
slSanuc seas which swept over the
snip, the mate, Alma Kemp, seized a
lifeline and endeavored to swim with
IL 10 the shore 200 yards away. The
attenpt tailed, however. and his ship
mates had to haul him back to the
snip. So terrible had been his suffer
lnSs that he went mad and died within
nail an hour. Then the second en-.
s'neer went mad, and as the tide rose
tlle crew had to retreat to the wheel
mousse Nhere they stood up to their
waists In water, holding the insane en-
Slneer. When the tide receded they
iound some food, but 1t was soaked in
salt water. When the darkness came
vi lne tide rose again and the vigil
Vi 'he crew through the long night
WAS terrible one, and before daylight
came two OF the hands and the mad
engineer had been washed away. In
Ine morning the plight of the ship
wrecked sailors was seen by the is
'anders, and they were rescued by
means of line.

Strange Faro for ParIslans,

Amid the horrors Of the stage Of
Paris in 1871, one Cadol found time to
issue a book or recipes for the prep
aration Of the strange fare 10 which
the city was reduced. Our stomachs
are turned into natural history mu-
seums,' he. wrote, "but we must make
the best OF circumstances, and rem.
der our food as palatable as we can"
So housewives were instructed how to
disguise the flesh of dogs, horses
asses, rats and mice; and were shown
that, despite the old adage, one can
make an omelet without breaking
eggs. The recipe for an eggless omelet
was as follows: Soak an army bis.
cult In sugared water favored with
orange flower; chop finely and spread
on a hot dish; powder we'll with sugar,
and then pour over, and set light to,
liberal helping of rum" With eggs
at six dollars dozen and rum al but
little more than its normal price. this
palatable imitation of an "omelette
au rhum" became a most popular dish.
