the honest truth. that they were living beyond their means.
 To the people with brains there is no such thing as high cost of living" but if porterhouse steak, olives, asparagus, SaIted almonds, mushrooms are their only thoughts. they should call it their own wasteful extravaganza.
 My advice is to eat less canned goods, go back to the way our parents lived, and eat turnips. navy beans cab bage, spinach, carrots. squash, beets, onions, etc, which are as cheap as they were years ago.
 Another thing, buy in bulk in sta pies a peck of parsnips hardly costs anything, and will keep for two months. Sugar in sales weeks often can be bought cheaper in 10 or 20 pound lots. When potatoes are two pecks for 30 cents it is wrong to buy one peck and pay 25 cents rather than take the two pecks.
 So many people fry their meat ir creamery butter; fry their omelets. their potatoes in it. There are so many substitutes now which taste so near like butter that for cooking pur- poses these should be used.

OTHER PEOPLES WAYS.

Shoe shining parlor'' seem to be unknown in London. An American writes to the Chronicle of that city: Having occasion to cross London bridge every morning and having my boots generously bespattered iwth mud by the passing vehicles. l discovered a shop in King William street, opposite the monument, devoted solely to the polishing of boots and shoes. The cus- toner, sitting on a comfortable arm chair, places his feet on low pedestals and has his two boots polished at the same time if he is in. a hurry. l be- lieve this is the only shop of the kind in London. I am sure you could use more of them.'
 About forty years ago there was ad- vertised on London billboards drink called Robur, said to be good for every ailment and. incidentally, the long sought after elixir of life.

THE PEcULIARITlEs OF THE
 GUINEA FOWL.


 Dear Sisters: While it need not amount to a hobby, it seems to me that everyone who keeps a flock of hens ought to have a few guineas to break the monotony. There are two varieties the white and pearl. The pearl get their name from the white spots on each feather resembling pearls.
 If one lives away back in the coun- try they are always making noise and are lots of company; and II any = thing unusual happens they set up great cry. They are supposed to keep away hawks. as the cry of the guinea warns the other fowls of danger and they run to cover. The hen makes noise that sounds like "buckWheat! She will not do well in confinement and can fly over any fence. 1t IS com = mon to see her on the roof. Their nature is to roost in trees, but if train ed early they will roost in the hen house, and sometimes lay there. They like a secluded place to lay in, usual ly in tall grass or brush, and the nests would be hard to find; but the male watches while the hen is laying, and if anything comes near keeps up q screeching. If the nest is found the eggs should De taken out with a spoon. as they can tell if the hand touches the eggs. Always leave three eggs, as they will find a new nest if all the eggs are taken out. It is best to set the eggs under common hens, as the guineas are great foragers and lead the little ones through the wet grass in search of bugs and insects, of which they devour enough to more than pay for their keep.
 The young guineas are delicate and much like turkeys in their care. They need not be matched till June, as they are spring and summer layers. They i mate in pairs. Guinea eggs are small but rich in flavor. The fowl should not be fattened for the table, as ir spells the good gamey flavor. There Is always 8 sale for them No picking is required, as they hang in the markets with the feathers on. The eggs require four weeks to hatch.
 Crimson Rambler: I keep Rhode Isl- and Reds. Guess again. I know of no one who keeps large white hens.
 Ready: Have you flown to D1ckey Doan?
 Fairy Godmother: Will be looking for that card
 Potlatch: Did you get my card some time ago?
 Aline: Was much pleased to see Cuba.
 Interested Reader: I don't think Pa ever had such a eulogy written up on him before. He is your friend for ever.

 If we read the history of our country we shall find that the hayseeds have done their part in all offices of trust and honor, and that there are many city youths who will never enjoy the honor and respect of the people that was given to their country grand fathers in the past
 It is a sad fact that both country and city boys are growing into men too fast in some ways. and that one of the dangers to our country is the loose morals of her young men.

OF swallowing poison. Doctors found
that the poison was bichloride of mer-
curry. When she learned that her fate
was inevitable Miss Richards broke
down and wept She took the poison
TO end her life, she walled, but changed
her mind and wanted TO live.
After reaching the hospital the girl
sank rapidly. She told the doctors that
she swallowed the bichloride of mer-
curry tablets on Friday afternoon. The
bottle was simply labelled Poison

nature OF the contents.

the situation, has planned TO have repeat

figured that the registration OF fraudulent
voters would not be noticed because many
Republicans would probably refrain from
voting because OF disafection over Mr..

Leader of Tammany, However,
Mildly Predicts Victory.
COMPLAINS OF VILE ABUSE
Enthusiastic Forces Have Been
Doing Effective Work for
Tiger, He Asserts.

Charles +. Murphy, OF Tammany Hall.
last night issued the following statement:
After a careful examination to-day OF
the figures submitted by the different dis
tricts we are able TO forecast the cleo
ton with reasonable accuracy. These fg-
ures indicate the election OF Judge Mccall
and his associates on the Democratic
ticket.
During the last week the situation has
greatly improved Information has come
10 me from all sections OF the city that
the fuslonlsts and their reckless and lying
mouthpieces have overdone their SIAN
derous work; that they have tired and
Disguised great many OF our fair
minded citizens
The same questionable tactics were
used by the fusionists in the Low-McClel-
Ian campaign OF 1895. Efforts we're then
made as now. to befog the real issues by
the use of reckless SANDER and vile abuse
against the Democratic candidates.
AT that time the same newspapers
, made all kinds OF absurd charges against
us and refused TO print our defence. no
matter how strong and convincing II
might be. They kept telling their readers
day after day that vote for Mcclellan
was a vote for vice. Their columns just
teemed with the vilest charges against
the Democratic candidates and organiza-
ton.
Then as now. there was fictitious bet
ting engineered by the fusion MANAGERS.
and the odds were made TO appear TO l
up TO Election Day But the people
showed their contempt for all this trick
cry by electing Mr.. Mcclellan by $50"
majority.
I'm this campaign We have important
elements with us that we never had be-
fore. Judge Mccall Mr.. Metz. SIR. Goul-
den. Mr. Elkus and Judges Foster and
Zcller and their colleagues on the ticket
have each a large following. which has
thoroughly canvassed the city In behalf
of the respective candidates.
while hostile newspapers and other
slanderers have been pouring forth tor
rent of abuse and Misrepresentation
against the ticket all these enthusiastic
forces have been doing effective work.
"Our figures are Indeed very encour-
aging and Indicate a substantial Demo
cratic victory"
