H si mill's 'i i' Daily Democrat There are more than 8Ao Indian dialect! In North America alone. Workinjrmen who looked for an increase of wagei it soon at Harrison got into the presi dential chair are still looking. But bow they are not anxious about the raise, but trembling lest the cut down shall take its place. The "fur" on the inside ef the tea-kettle comes from the salts of lime in the water. They are held in solution by the carbonic acid gas present, but when this U driven off by boiling, they are precipitated on the sides of the kettle. Scale in steam boilers is due to the same cause. Observations upon the s . ay of tall chim neys during high winds show that one 115 feet in height, and four feet in total d'am eter at the top waved twenty inches during a heavy gale,and another 164 feet high.but with a feet diameter of flue, moved througli an arc of only 6',i Inches. The quality of roof slates, says a German trade journal, may be easily tested by care fully weighing samples, then putting them lor a quarter of an hour into boiling water that is fairly free from lime, saltpetre and ammonia ; on reweighing the slates, those that show the greatest increase in weight are the most capable of resisting deteriora tion. If Mrs J Ellen Foster of Iowa It to be rewarded for her party services, why have the recognition go by proxy In the appoint ment of her husband, register of the treas ury ? If party service rather than f tness for the place is a test, why in the name of all decency and fairness should she not herself be chosen ? She has at least to her credit capacity for rendering aid to the party, while so far as anybody knows, Mr. Foster has neither that capacity nor fitness for the office in question. Mrs E D N Southworth, the authoress, lives In a very modest house on Warburton avenue, Yonkers, Her life is almost one of retirement. She goes to bed about o'clock in the morning and is not disturb ed, even if she does not awake, until late in the afternoon. Mrs Southworth resides with her sea, Dr Southworth,a kind hearted second edition of his famous mother. Now that it has been decided that a soldier lit by a flying demijohn playfully thrown y a comrade is as much entitled to a pension as a Sldier hit by a bullet from a rebel's rifle the pithway of the claim agent and the pension Chirp has been made smooth before them. Nothing remains but to go forward and enter into possession of the Treasury surplus.' Oklahoma is nearly forgotten already, The picturesque features of its opening for settlement attracted public attention f-r the moment, but the first rush was no sooner over than the whole matter dropped oat of sight as n.erely another ncident in the development of a nation whose whole history is (ull of stirring events and won derfull changes from the wilderness to civiliza- UOI.DEX RULE BAZAAR Cash Goes a Long Wyit Julias Urtdwiol' I have made arrangements for buying goeds direct from the factories In Europe aad will sell at wholesale or retail, cheaper than any where else on the Pacific Coast The following are some of my rash retail prices : H dozen unhandled teacups and saucers, 35 ts. dozen unhandled coffee cups and sau cers, 45 cts. dozen handled coffee cups and sau cers, 50 cts.

The experienced housekeeper is careful not to boil preseryes and jellies too long after the sugar has been added, because the acids in the fruits may cause the sugar to 'invert," or split up into two other farms of sugar, neither of which possess much sweeting power. Neither will the boi' jellies made from gelatine too long, or a chemical change will take place, and the gelatine lose its power of "setting," or gcl-antinizing. It has been decided by the pension de partment that a soldier about to be mus tered out, who was slightly Injured in the leg by an empty demijohn, which was be ing playfully tossed about the camp, is en titled to a pension.'. This would seem to mean that all soldiers hit by demijohns, whether full or empty, are also entitled to pensions ; nnd that no distinction can be made on "the roll 'of honor' " between a soldier hit by a bullet in front of the ene my and one hit by a demijohn in front of friends. Messrs Bussey and Tar.ner would have the law regard both as battle scarred veterans equally deserving of the govern ment bounty. This is what a surplus rev enue can do in the way of upsetting the official mind, The Advance Threshing Machinery, The best and fastest thresher In Ameri ca, ana a macbinn that stands without a rival.

Remove machine grease from I'.j.i ur linen by washing in rainwater and soap. If the belled potatoes are done a little too soon, lay a towel over the kettle or dish, but do not put a tight cover over them. Paint on windows can, it it said, be re moved by melting some soda in very hot water, and washing them with it, using a soft flannel. Let the table. when no one is present but the home circle, be the model of what it thould be when surrounded by guests. When potters' ware is boiled for the purpose of hardening it, a handful or two of bran should be thrown into the water, and the glaing will never be injured by acids or salt. There is nothing better for nervousness than celery tea. the tops or roots, or even the seed, and in draining the water from cooked celery you lose the best part. The holes arour.d a lamp burner should be kept open to admit air, and entirely free from dust and grease. The wick should be trimmed very evenly. Make starch with soapy water, and you will find it a pleasure to do tip your starch ed goods. It prevents the iion from stick ing.and makes a glsy surface.
