An exchange says: "A promi
nent physician advances the opinion
that tho turned down kerosene lamp is
the prime and most common cause of
diphtheria." This theory has been
advanced befure, and there may be
something in it. One fact is clear
enough, namely, that the turning of a
lamp-wick down to a low point results
in imperfect combustion and poisons
the air, making it suffocating and
deadly. Either let the flame burn
full or put it out. No oil is saved by
turning down a lamp wick, or so litllo
that it is not worth considering.

Wednesday, Jan. 2, was in one respect
the most remarkable winter day on record.
The maps of the Signal Service showed
that on that day not a drop of rain or a
flake of snow fell within the borders of
the entire United States. It is so very
seldom that an entire clear day prevails
all over such a wide and vast expanse, es
pecially in winter, that the fact caused a
great doal of comment among the scientific
and the curious.

Monday moans "washing day" in every
well regulated family, and we take pleas
ure, says tho Olean Herald, in giving a
recipe which makes washing easy, quick
and satisfactory, leaving the clothing of
unusual whiteness, with no possible injury
to the fabric It is now used by a practi
cal housekeeper in this town, who for
sixty years could never be persuaded into
any "new fangled" waya of washing. The
directions are as follows: In a five-pail
boiler of water dissolve a bar of soap, aud
put in three table-spoonfuls of kerosene
oil. Put the soiled clothes in dry, boil
tiftecn minutes, and drain them into a
tub, leaving the suds just as it is in the
boiler lor the new lot of clothes. Usually
no extra soap is needed in rubbing, which
is done in the suds which cling to the
clothes, water being added to make a
sufficient quautity. Rinse thoroughly in
plenty of water then put through the
blueing water. Somo prefer beiiziue to
the oil, but in either case a thorough rins
ing will tako away any disagreeable odor
from the clothes.

From Washington Territory.
Mr. H. C. Whittekin hands us the
following letter from a former Forest
county gentleman, which will interest
many of our readers who are looking
in the direction of Washington Terri
tory at this time:
Thursday morning, November 22,
1888, we all arrived in Tacoma, W.
T., safe and sound, with the exception
of a slight cold all 'rouud. There is
no use going over our route nnd jour
ney here, as nothing worthy of note
occurred. My first failure stared me
in the face right after breakfast, when
I went out to look for a house in which
to domicile n y family, while I did a
little prospecting. There was none to
be had, and we were obliged to stop at
the hotel for the time being. Friday
morning I met a gentleman named
Jones, a "locater" by the way, who
was about starting with a party of ten
to look op claims. I told him, if be
had no objection, I would make it
eleven, since there wait luck in odd
numbers, and of course he readily
consented that I Bbould be one of the
party, and I immediately went about
fitting myself out for the campaign.
A hunting coat and vest, a pair of
corduroy pants, and a pair of long
legged rubber boots ; a pair of blan
kets, tin plate, cup, knife and fork, a
week's provision and ray gun swung
over ray shoulder, and I was ready to
"take the trail." Taking a boat in
the evening fur Seattle, we arrived
and staid there all night. Next morn
ing we took another boat for Port
Washington, where we landed at 11
o'clock, and after striking our trail,
we unbuckled our provender and pro
ceeded to tackle our bill of fare, which
consisted of sardines, Boston baked
beans and water. After dinner, we
again took up our trail and traveled
about eleven miles, when we struck a
railroad track, which we followed
about a mile, or as far as it had been
built. A gang of employes directed
us to a vacant shanty and told us to
make ourselves at home. We didn't
need a second invitation, it beiug near
night aud we were cold aod hungry.
We weren't long in building a fire and
preparing our meals, after which we
smoked, swapped lies and played eu
chre till bed time. Next morning
when we got up it was still dark and
raining quite briskly, and after break
fast we fell in line again, and from
here on we had to make our own trail.
After traveling until three o'clock we
learned that we had made but three
miles in a direct course. During all
this time it had raiued continuously,
and drowned rats were only a trifle
moiBt compared with us. We thought
we were hungry the night befure, but
it wasn't a patching to what we were
just then. Ten frying paus full of
bacon, eight loaves of bread, fuur
quarts of oat meal, fuur quarts of
beans and two quarts of canned sal
mon is what we sat down to. This
wasn't all we had, but we concluded
any more might be injurious to our
delicate constitutions, so after getting
ourselves outside of the above we
called it quits for that day. I only
wish you could have seen the moun
tains we traveled up and down 1 'twas
enough to make a sick man hungry to
look at them. But next day we had
a better streak of luck. Pitching our
tent in front of a settlers house, we
were shown a great deal of hospitality
by our new friend, who had the day
before killed a deer, of which we se
cured a quarter, aod I tust say it was
a little bit the sweetest ruo'sel of ven
ison I ever helped to dispatch. So
much fur my first little experience,
and now a little about the country in
general. The climate is fine. To-day
is the coldest we've bad, and yet the
grass, and a good deal of the garden
stuff still out, is nice and green. We
have bad uo snow yet. I am located
five miles from Seabeck, a harbor for
steamers aud vessels. A large steam
saw mill will go up there in the spring.
Nearly opposite Seabeck is Port Or
chard, a place where steamers aud
vessels load and unload. Before next
fall there will be a railroad running
within tcu rods of the laud I have
taken up. Eleveu claims have been
taken since I filed mine. I would
like awfully t - take another claim,
but cannot before six mouths, aod thfa
way things are going here now, thirty
days will just about close up every
thing. There is beautiful tiiubrr aud
farming laud here. I have quite a
good lot of tiuiber, and part of it
will not require much labur to make
it tillable, and I expect to commence
clearing next week, i .-. surrounded
by neighbors, and we are going to
have a school house built iu the spring.
Tho principal industry just now is
raising log cabins and making roads.
A day or two ago I weni, iu com
pany with a friend, oh a little fishing
excursion. I no hooks we use out
here are about 10 limes the size of
your ordinary bass hooks, and are
fastened to the butt end of the pule.
No lines or bait are used, but you
walk aloug the stream and "hook"
the fish. We were gone three hours
and got as many salmon as we could
carry home, and some i f tlnm weighed
eighteen pounds, the smallest being a
nine pounder. What do you think of
that for fish ? I assuro you it is no
"fUh" story but a solid fact; further
more they tuld nie I came too late for
good fishing, the spring and fall being
the best time. Besides this fine sport
we have plenty of deer and bear to
vary the monotouy. While out sur
veying to day I saw some bear tracks,
and rau onto 5 deer. But the usual
luck none of our party had a gun;
however I will fool some of litem be
fute spring comes. Small game of all
kinds is very plentiful here, such as
partridge, grouse, etc. I live within
six rods of a lake which abounds with
ducks, but I have been too busy to
hunt. I want to build a bouse and
clear about 15 acres of laad before
spring, but don't know as I will get it
all done. I was very fortunate in
getting a house here, and the man who
owns it says I cau have il as long as I
wish. I have about 80 acres that will
be easily cleared. When the railroad
gets in here I will sell some of my
timber on the stump.
I could fill dozens of sheets of paper
and then not run ashore for news
about this country, but I must draw
to a close this time with the promise
of another letter befure long. So far
we are more than pleased with what
we have seen here. The wenther has
been very mild and balmy thus far.
A great many of my old friends iu
Forest county wanted me to write
when I got located, but if you will
kindly baud this to the Republican
they can all see it, and thus I can kill
several birds with oue stone. One
word before I close: Should any of
our friends contemplate a journey here,
I would advise them to get transpor
tation through Mr. R. II. Wallace,
Oil City, Pa. Myself aod family got
splendid treatment over the route he
shipped us. A good sleeper from St.
Paul, and everything to our comfort
just as he represented to us. With
kindest regards to all my old friend,
I remain, Yours Truly,
Setii Jaynes.
