The election of United States Sena tor* by a direct vote ef the i>eoi>le. would certainly be a great improvement on the present system. A legislative b nly is snpi>o?>ed to represent the popu lir will in the choice of a Senator any how. and it is difficult to see what ad- Vantage there is in leaving the choice to the legislature of the several states. The framers of the constitution, de siring to create a body less fossilized than the Honse of Lords in England, and a little more <Hand conserva tive than the lower House of Congress, conceived the idea of rqeuiring the leg* is'atnres of the several States to select the Senators for a term of six years. The long term tends to produce the re sult aimed at. but the election of Sena tors by legislative lnxlies accomplishes no good purpose. •'n the contrary it is productive of great evils that might be obviated by popular elections. First, the election of United States Senators by a state legislature tends to degrade the legislative body itself. When memliers of the legislature are to 1M? chosen who will vote for a I nited Senator the merits and capabili , : ties of the legislative eaniilate is often j 1 entirely lost of' and alnint the 011- j ( ly tiling thonght of is how he will vote 1 for United States Senator. That de t grades the legislature, filling it with in 1 conipetents and ' "roisters. who have • no q.usKfieations whatever for the hnsi- . ness of making laws or looking after . the general interests of the Sjate. The ; election of a Senator is a very insigniti- 1 cant fraction of the duties of a legisla- 1 ture. A candidate ifor the legislature 1 saonkl run on his own merits not on the merits or demerits of some man who wants to be United States Senator. 1 Second, the election of United States Senators by the legislatures of the sev eral states tends to degrade the higher branch of Congress its self, because it gives money an advantage over charac ter and ability. A mere money bag c.in have himself boomed for office, and J he can use money in various corrupting r ways to have persons who will vote for him elected to the legislature. In this way millionaires, who have no qualities of statesmanship whatever, are some times elected to that body who would st md no chance in a popular election. ' Besides these two potent reasons fcr ' choosing Senators by the popular vote, there is another: The people want a 1 voice in their selection, and feel that it is their right, and in accordance with the genius of our institutions. We would have better legislatures, a better United States Senate, and conse quently better management of both State and National affairs, if Senators were choosen by popular vote, and the Constitution should be amended accord ingly.—Punx'y Spirit Noah After tlic Flood. The first fruit planted by Noah when he left the ark was the grape, the most healthy of all products of the earth. All through the Bible we read grapes and wine from grapes being recom mended as the first remedy for the ills of life; but it is pure juice wine, not watered and sugared juice that the Bi ble refers. Sugared wines are highly alcoholic and starchy; the sugar making excess of alcohol and other prodnctsjnot belong ing to a healthy wine. Speer of New Jersey, the oldest wine grower in the United States, has studi ously avoided water and sugar or any foreign substance whatever, but has bis wine fully matured by great age and careful handling. A Snow Act. Among the other acts, good, bad or indifferent, passed by the last legisla ture, was the following means to re duce the snow drift nuisance to a mini mum. It provides for the removal of b.>ard fences, where in many sections ol the country the drifting snows are halted by just such fences. Here is the law; Section 1 - Beit enacted, etc.. That in all cases were any of the public high ways within this commonwealth are so located as to render them to be lia ble on account of the high wind during the winter session, to be so tilled with snow as to cause them to be impassible, and where in judgement of the supervi sors of roads of the several townships In which public highways are situated, such drifts of snow can be avoided by the removal of any board, rail or other fence, that may be erected along either side of such public highways and replacing the same by a fence con structed of posts, wire and boards, or rails combined, it may be lawful for such supervisors to agree with the own ers of fences upon a plan for the erect ion ot a fence constructed of posts, 1 wire and boards, or rails combined. | And it may be lawful for supervis ' ors to pay the owners of such fences a sua not to exceed the first cost of the material used in the construction 1 f such fences: Provided. That the wire used in the construction of such fences shall be without barb; provided, that this act shall not apply to any stone wall, hedge or ornamental fence that is now or may be hereafter constructed.

Shakers Digestive Cordial, a cure for indigestion, is prepared from herbs and roots, and is a natural remedy, which cures by aiding nature and not by fight ing her. Shaker Digestive Cordial makes those fat, who have become thin by not di gesting their food. , It restores the spirits and the appetite of those who are dejected and fagged out from the wearing effects of indiges tion. It relieves the symptoms of dyspepsia, - and, after using for a reasonable time, finally cures the complaint. Sold by druggists.

As our laws stand, we are not only compelled to save the State from destruction once a year, but the county and city, township or bor ough as well, and we must save the Na tion every two years by the election of 1 Congressmen and every four years by 1 the election of a President. The amount of voting we do is prodigious, and we are never done with the prim- : aries.

I find Salvation Oil the best cure for rheumatism 1 ever known. Josh ua Zimmerman. Wetheredville, Md. Doves Scattered Flowers. The unromatic aspect of Cramps' shipward was turned to favor and prettiness last Thursday when the Jap anese cruser Kasagi was launched. True oriental spirit pervaded the event, and, perhaps for the same reason that the dainty Japs begin their dinners with pie and end them with soup, this deadly engineof war was christened with all the emblems of peace, tranquillity and love. When the huge ship began to glide down to her first bath in the muddy Delaware six doves fluttered from a basket from the bow and circ ling round the fast receding hull, scat tered powers on her deck and on the nondescript structure of timbei and iron from which she slipped gracefully away. The chief actor of the allegory was a charming American girl Miss Helen Long, daughter of the secretary of the navy. The doye idea is a relic of the feudal ages oi Japan. It combines supersti tious tradition with a love atfair of quite modern fashion, including an elopement, an irate father and the in tercession of his ancestors' spirits in the shape of the birds, who thus per mitted the lovers to get safely away on a maritume lioney-moon. Miss Long was to have merely drawn the cord which released the doves and their flo ral emblems. At the supreme moment the cord slipped from her hand and a brawny workman of the yard instantly caught it and performed the office A good tonic is necessary after sick ness to restore perfect health. Hood s Sarsaparilla will do it. A writer says: Orange juice is one of the best dressings fur black shoes or boots. Take a slice or unarter of an orange and rub it on the shoe or boot: then when dry, brush with a soft brush until the shoes shine like a looking glass. This is an English receipt. ( Another fruit dressing is for tan shoes, the inside of a banana skin. Rub the skin all over the shoe, thoroughly, wipe off carefully with a soft cloth briskly. Patent leather shoes should not be pol ished with blacking. These are the hardest kind of shoes to keep looking well, and require constant care. "they | may be cleaned with a damp sponge and immediately dried with a soft cloth, with occasionally a little vast* line or sweet oil. They must never donned in cold weather without hc.it ing, or they will crack as soon as ex pca.-d to the cold air.
