WHAT JINKS THINKS,

Hinder storm, nnd got wet through, taking
tho starch nil out of n new white duck suit, anil
his wife blow him up.for not wearing his gossa
mer overcoat, forgetful ofthe fact that sho had
loaned it to her brother a few days belore lo
go ofi'on a summer trip. Jinks had lo chango
nil his clothes, and about the time he had got
Iresh harness on, his wife called his attention
tho fact that the sp-tit from tho verandah
was slopped up, nnd tho water would pour
over tho edges lu a few moments nnd ruin her
flower beds below. Ho took tho kitchen poker
and went lo poko tho leave) out of the spout.
iVbotit the llmo ho got tho leaven loosened up,
the water reached tho lop of the trough on thu
verandnh, nnd four barrels full camo over at
once, lighting gracefully on Jinkh1 shoulders.
t the snmo time, tho leaves nnd water camo
out witli a rush nnd attacked him In tho front
with a pres'tuo of about two hundred pounds
the squareMnch, As soon us Jinks could
catch his breath, and pick himself out of tho
mud, ho went in tho hoii'o nnd told his wlfo
he had got things fixed so that there was no
danger of Injuring the llower bed, whereupon
io ungrateful woman reminded him that lie
had ruined hi Sunday hroadilot h suit, an
blow him up again for walking all over tho par
lor carpet with his muddy shoes. lis might
have wniled until a pleaant day lo clean that
pout out, she said. Jinks changed his clothes
again nnd put em his new embroidered slippers
and sat down to rend the evening paper. Just
as ho was becoming absorbed, his wife came in
and told him that if ho wanted any butter lor

Jinks went, nnd as he stepped into the
spring house ho simultaneously stepped into
i:reo feet of water that bad ran in under the
door. Then Jinks got up nnd paid some
awful thing, and s'arttd for the house with a
fixed determination of expressir g his opinion
to his wifo about the proper laco to keep ttie
butter, but just as ho reached the back door nnd
beforo ho could open his mouth, his wifo
threw out a pan of dish water, which took Jinks
piarcly in tho face, and beforo he could get
the grease out of bis mouth, sho lectured him
on his carelessness in going out in the wet with
his new slippers, and said a whole lot of other
things about how clumsy a man Is, and how
littlo ho cases for tho trouble he makes his
poor wife. Then Jinks didn't say awoid,but ho
insists upon it that ho doesn't llko these heavy

SGNSIULi: feUOdESTlONS.
EniTOim Colujuiian: I notico in jour imuo
of May 27th, that it is a good time for Demo"
crats to make up their minds as to what kind o
men they will uipport; whether OVy will put
in nomination men vho will bo a by word and
dNgraco to iho L'Ood old Democratic parly,
or select men whoso records aro square. Th e
picstion arises, what constitutes a square rec
ord? I will givo a negative answer It is not
one who slarlsout to secure his nomination nnd
election by means ofunney nnd drink. If the
party were to placo men in nomination vho-o
record for honefty and fair dealing wero above
reproach, there would be no need of traveling
through the county trespassing upon our time,
shaking hands with overy ono they meet, nnd
making themselves disagreeable generally.
Homo two or three years ago, I was at work
about half a milo from the bouse. I was rent
for, and came in to find a candidate fur trcaru-
er, nnd two candidates for commissioner sitting
in the shado, waiting for me. I felt well,
you know how ono would ftol. Now, what I
want to Bay is tlili-; Amend tho rules ko that a
man who is a candidate shall stay at home nnd
show tho people that if he cannot bo elected
by fair, honorablo mean;, lie will follow some
other vocation. I believe iho peoplo nro tind
of the kind of men they aro compelled lo f up-
port, and would rally around end elect good
men without candidates doing so much boring.
for one, am tired of such proceedings anil un
less there is a radical change ir. the party ma
chinery, will favor n convention ofthe people,
independent of the pothouee politicians ; to
put in nomination good, pound meu, I am a
Grin believer in Democratic principles and
mean to bold to them until lam convinced that
the founders of those principles weio iu error.
Thero aro a number of men in and out of
Congress, who call tbenifolves Democrats who
are not "Simon pure." In fact, wo have them
in otlice everywhere; in our Stale legislatures,
in our county and township offices. Now,
the epiestion i!, do wo propose to continue to
send men to do the public buaineM that not
one-half nf us would trut lo transact our indi
vidual atlUir, Hcforo clod rg this communica
tion, I would like lo uhk the people of the
county to give expresdoa to their thouuhts on
Ibis Mihjcct through your piper, believing as I

It is a most agrceablo dressing, which
Is at onco harmless and effectual, for pro-
serving tho. lialr. It restores, with tho
gloss and freshness of youth, faded orgray,
light, and red lialr, to a rich brown, or deep
blacl:, as may bo desired. By Its uso thin
liair is thickened, and baldness often
though not always cured. It checlcs falling
of tho hair immediately, and causes a new
growth in all cases whero tlio glands aro
not decayed; whllo to brashy, weale, or
otherwise diseased hair, it Imparts vitality
and btiuuth, and renders it pliable.
Tho Virion cleanses tho scalp, cures and
prevents thu formation of dandruff; and,
by Its cooling, stimulating, and soothing
piopcrtlcs, it heals most If not all of Ilia
humors and diseases peculiar to tho scalp,
Keening It cool, clean, and soft, under
which conditions diseases of tho scalp and
