Big Campaign Fund.
One Man Gave $150,000 to Help McKinley
Out Other Contributors.
It is asserted on undisputable au
thority that Mark Ilanna had at his
command altogether $3,000,000 to
conduct the McKinley campaign. It
is quite as true that less than $100,000
of this enormous fund was unexpended.
It is said but not on good authority
that the Bryan campaign fund did
sot exceed $1,000,000.
The correspondent of a leading New
York paper who was much about the
Hanna headquarters makes the follow
ing statement as to campaign contri
Butions :
"The largest individual subscriber
to the Republican national committee
was William K. Vanderbilt, of New
York, who sent his personal check for
$150,000 to the national committee.
This is not only the largest sum con
tributed by any one in the late cam
paign but it is undoubtedly a larger
amount of money than was ever be
fore given by any individual in any
political campaign, in the world. V.
JL Vanderbilt's check was not sent in
answer to any appeal from Chairman
Hanna, but was a deliberate and vol
untary gift late in the campaign
through another member of the na
tional committee. Cornelius N. Bliss,
the treasurer, could, if he would, tell
the circumstances.
"One of the next largest subscrip
tions to the Republican campaign
fund was made by the Pennsylvania
railroad. President Roberts and 1st
Vice President Thompson, of the
Pennsylvania railroad, are both Dem
ocrats, but the free silver issue threat
ened such disaster to all industry and
credit that the officers of the company
and the company itself did what nei
ther ever did before gave money to
a political campaign committee.
"Cornelius Vanderbilt, who it was
rumored gave $100,000, in fact con
tributed only $50,000. The largest
bank subscription was that of a purely
savings and benevolent association,
the Philadelphia savings fund, whose
directors voted $25,000 'to protect
their depositors from loss of their sav
ings.' John Wanamaker gave $1,000,
exactly the same sum which he con
tributed in 1SS8 as chairman of the
committee which raised $400,000 in
Philadelphia aloi.e." Ex.

Veranda Colei.
The wide veranda that gwee-ps about
a summer home In the mountains
shows what can be done with rustic
materials. All the furniture. Includ
ing the tAbl. is made of wood with
the bark left on. The floor Is painted
green. A tree growing against the
corner has had Its branches bent and
trained to stretch close against the
posts on either side, thus forming a
natural screen of living green. Here
the cages of several pet birds ars
hung, to whom come as visitors the
wild denizens of the forest, the birds
eager for the seeds which are scat
teied on the rims of the trays, and
even bright-eyed squirrels condescend,
lng to make a call for the sake of the
mits which are placed purposely in
their way.

A Remedy for Red Hands.
Red hands are often benefited by be
ing washed In oatmeal water that Is,
take some fine oatmeal, boll it in
water for about an hour, strain, then
night and morning use the liquid to
wash in; It, however, requires to be
made fresh every day, as It so soon
turns sour, and smells very disagree
able. For exceptionally red and harsh
hands, a few grains of chloride of lime
may be safely added to the soft warm
water you wash them in, but remem
ber to remove your rings, or they will
be tarnUhed.
You Have "Waited for This.
There are many people who would
be glad to abandon the habit of drink
ing coffee if they could only find some
substitute for it. That substitute is
Grain O, made from pure grains and,
in the opinion of those who have giv
en it a thorough trial, a beverage in
every way preferable to coffee. Grain
O is not a stimulant, it is something
better. It is cheering, nutritious and
strengthening. In other words it is a
food drink, as coffee is not. It is ac
ceptable to the most delicate stomach,
and agrees even with confirmed dys
peptics. Unlike coffee Grain O pro
duces no nervous action. It never
interferes with sleep. As for the flavor
of Grain-O, people who use it say that
after using it a week or two they like
its taste better than that of coffee.
Grain-0 is sold by all grocers at 15c,
and 25c. per package. Try it.
