does his share.
See to it that the Republican candi
dates tor the School Board are elected.
They are generally good men.
It behooves the Republicans of the
various wards to keep awake to the
importance of the coining spring elec

be here. The time between now and
that day should be employed in good
work for the ticket Ihe Democrats
in nearly every instance are at work
early and late making the rounds of
various places in their wards. They
will leave no stone unturned to carry
their ticket to triumph. The Republi
cans must also keep at work, not in a
spirit of over confidence, but with the
knowledge that effort is required and a
determination to win.

"In three weeks onr chubby little boy
was changed by Pneumonia almost to
a skeleton," writes Mrs. W. Watkins.
of Pleasant City, O. "A terrible cough
set in, that, in spite of a good doctor 's
treatment for several weeks,grew worse
every day. We then used Dr. King's
New Discovery for Consumption, and
onr darling was soon sound and well.
We are sure this grand medicine saved
his life." Millions know it's the only
sure cure for Coughs, Colds and all
Lung diseases. Paules & Co. guarantee

M Atcrproof SlioehlackinKT.
To make a good waterproof blacking
for shoes or other leather articles mix
one part of borax with eighteen parts
of melted beeswax and stir to a stiff
jelly. Then mix five parts of asphalt
varnish with sixty-six parts of oil of
turpentine, into which stir six parts of
melted spermaceti. After thorough .stir
ring, combine this with the first mix
ture of borax and beeswax, and the re
sult will be a nearly colorless water
proof paste, excellent for use on nat
ural leather.
Leather For Decoration.
Leather is being utilized in a variety
of ways for decorative purposes just
now, and one of the most effective is iu
the form of pillows for the collegian's
room or the bachelor's den. Indians'
beads ornament some of these; others
show college colors and devices. Pipe
racks in leather are satisfactory from
the decorative point of view if nothing
else, and the football inkstand is use
ful as well as ornamental.

Abbreviations make up one of the
most Important elements in the career
of the telegraph operator. Abbreviated
dispatches are often sent In live min
utes that would require half an hour's
work If transmitted in full. But there
Is an operator In Pittsburg whose origi
nality in Inventing substitutes for good
English surprises even his workmates.
When the death of young James S.
Ayres was lirst sent over the wires and
the name of Mrs. Bonine was first men
tioned, one of the local operators re
ceived a query from the Pittsburg man.
"What sort of a looking woman is Mrs.
Bo 9?" The Washington operators
thought steadily for a moment and
then sent back, "Who do you moan V"
"Mrs. B () !»." When the significance > 112
the phrase burst upon him, the local
operator announced the abbreviation to
his associates, and the name has b«-on
•»ut all over the country as "B-O-O"
ever since. Washington I'ost.

SUGGESTION FOR ROADS.
I National Vehicle Tnv and a Sj-ntviu
of Kofl«l
State Senator Earle of Michigan is
' an enthusiastic advocate of good roads,
i anil he has induced several counties in
his state to provide funds for a prac
tical demonstration of roadbuilding as
i it should be carried on by elty, county,
j state and federal governments, say
1 the Philadelphia North American, lie
| expects to start out next spring as soon
i as the season will permit with a good
roads train drawn by a traction engine,
i which ill make a tour of the central
1 part of the state, traveling about f.oO
miles. Before the start central poiuts
will be selected where the train will
stop and build a sample mile of good
road.
Senator Earle urges an appropriation
of at least $1,000,000 by congress for
the betterment of highways, and life
' also advocates a national vehicle tax of
I 50 cents a year for that purpose. One
of his schemes is to have the govern
ment make road maps of every county
In the United States, showing bad
roads In red. fairly good ones In blue
and improved roads In black. He
would have these county maps pub
lished In book form and sold at post
offices for f> cents. Senator Earle says:
"If I wanted to buy a farm In a cer
tain locality, my first step for the pur
pose of investigation would be to pur
chase one cf these little maps, and I
would be very sure that I would pur
chase my farm along the route of one
of these good roads, for I have found
out from observation that It costs 17
cents less a mile to transport farm
produce over an improved road than
over a bad one."
There is nothing more important
than good roads to the material wel
fare of a country, and it is to be hoped
that congress may have the wisdom to
take the matter up earnestly and make
liberal appropriations in aid of the
good roads movement even if it is
necessary to reduce the sum customa
rily devoted to the improvement of
waterless creeks.

How to Make White Frnlt Cake.
One cup of butter beaten to a cream,
with two cupfuls of sugar, three cup
fuls of flour in which two rounding
teaspoonfuls of baking powder have
been sifted and the stitlly beaten whites
of six eggs. Bake in jelly cake tins,
and when done put between the layers
the following tilling: ("hop fine one
quarter pound each of figs, seeded
raisins, citron, preserved ginger and
blanched almonds and stir them into
three whites of eggs beaten stiff, a
teacup of powdered sugar and the juice
of one lemon; frost with the white of
an egg beaten with the juice of half a
lemon and a cup of powdered sugar.
Killing TVeetl* With a Cultivator.
The great secret of killing weeds
with a cultivator tbov tmvu pot
a start is to run the cultivator so deep
as to tear them out root and branch,
says S. 11. Todd In National Stock
man. There has so much been said
on shallow cultivation, which is all
right if understood, that the amateur
farmer thinks he must keep on top of
the ground even if he keeps on top of
the weed roots to carry out this end.
Weeds will bid defiance to that kind of
treatment and in a few days will
laugh, "Ila. ha' Come again, our
backs need scratching."
How to Soften Hard Water.
To make hard water soft use an
ounce of lime slaked to a thin cream to
fort} - gallons of water. Stir it In and
allow it to settle for twelve hours. The
lime will absorb the carbon dioxide,
which held the hardening substance,
carbonate of lime, in solution, and if
thus liberated will fall to the bottom,
and the water will be soft.
How to Trent a lte«l Nose.
The damsel with the crimson nose
must beware of strong tea end strong
coffee, all highly spiced, stimulating
dishes and greasy foods. Drink plenty
of mineral water and eat crisp green
Vegetables. When you go to bed. cov

It is a disease of the nerve centers, and

l iniments and all external applications
can only give temporary relief. Permanent
cure cannot possibly come until the nerve

The beneficial effects of this great nerve re

the nerve force of the body is restored.
Women afflicted with diseases peculiar to

There art 4 several different ways of
preparing this, ami that which we like
best, says a Boston Globe correspond
ent, Is to lirst make a stock by boiling
salt pork five or six hours, one pound
to three quarts of water; renew from
time to time. I take the salt pork, cut
in strips ami fry a golden brown in
bottom of soup kettle, then cut ati
onion very fine and fry in the fat; now
a<l«l the beau*, whieli have soaked over
siigiit, and the water. Let cook slowly
for tive or six hours; then mash
through a hair sieve, season with salt
and pepper and serve with little cubes
of bread tossed in flour and fried in
deep fat until golden brown Drain
thoroughly before adding to the soup.
This is :i nice fall <>r winter sala<;.
Pull off in narrow strips a pound of
old fashioned salt codfish. Soak over
night. in cold or lukewarm water. In
the morning squeeze out all the water
by putting lisli in ;i thin cloth. Put
into a saucepan and cover with cold
water and let if boil gently for twen
ty minutes Then drain and again
squeeze dry. Toss about with a silver
| fork until pieces are separated, put
into a salad bowl with equal quantity
| of hoiled potatoes, hard boiled eggs
| and, if you like them, a few minced
anchovies and a chopped dill pickle,
i Mix with mayonnaise and garnish the
j dish with shredded lettuce and chop
j ped celery.
It has been calculated that in Indifi i
48 per cent of certain crimes disap- I
pear when hot weather gives place to |
cold.
LohAtorn.
Lobsters often travel in regiments,
j seeking new feeding grounds. Their
j migrating armies are always led by the j
biggest, and strongest ones, while the 1
maimed and weakly struggle along be- 1
hind.
I'nrffylnK Water,
Three grains of alum will purify a
gallon of water. Let it stand for a 1
time, and if no filter can be had strain !
it through a piece of calico.
