Republloana hava bad a landslllde ID tee umpire autve. iue results ahow an overwneiiuing viosury iuc lioKlnley, Black, ooDgraes and assembly. I Lata returns show that McKlnley baa carried the svate by at least 876,000, while ;lu only Kil districts out of 8,864 election districts, outside of New York and Kings, Black's vote Is 164,788, Porter's 108,860 and Griffin 8.441. These same districts in loii4 gave Morton 186,878 and Hill 06,488. As the com piece roturne oaiue In from the oiiuutUis it was fairly evident that tha Republican uatiunal ticket had run far Leyuud all expectations. That tha oandl dutu for governor ran behind this record wits due luiilnly to the vote In Rensselaer and Albany counties, with some precincts in New York and Kings. Ia no tingle instance was a gain of any prynortiun ujade lu any ouuuty of New York state by Democrats, and the party, aa represented by the vote, is not a gain er, but, In fact, la a loser, there being a distinct Demooratlo lose. In congressmen there seems to be a lit tle change from 18H4, the atate giving a complete aet of Republican congressmen ontalile of New York city and only about three or fonr In that oonnty. In as4mbly mnn the returns would aoera to Indicate te- I.e. t . WILLIAM M'KISLET. that the Ropublloan majority of 4S In the house will be preserved, with probable in crease. This means the eleotlnn of a Unit ed States senator to auoceed David B. BUI. The malt enema to he this: McKlnley electors have oarrled the state by 875,000 at least. Of 84 congressmen 80 are Republican. Of 150 assembly nien 108 are Republican, and this means the eleo tlon of a Hepublloan United States sena tor. Tba metropolis of the oountry rolled np a plurality of 81,000 for McKlnley. The approilmnta vote was McKlnley 1B5.H24, Bryan 184. 818, MoKlnley'a plu rality 81,848. New York also gave a plu rality of nearly 10,000 for Frank S. Black for governor over Wilbur F. Porter, the candidate of the Democratlo state ma chine. The estimated vote was Black 147,805, Porter 188,888, Blaok's plurality 9,673. Kings county gave a plurality of about 80,000 for McKlnley and abont 88,000 for Black.

The Fourth and Seventh districts an stlU In doubt It will probably take a full count to definitely ascertain tha result In the Seventh. McKwan (Kep), may be elected by a very small plurality. At this hour It looks as though ail eight congress men might he Republloana The election made no change In the political oomplexlon of tha New Jersey slate senate. The senate In 1897 will stand 18 Republicans and 8 Democrat This Is the saiha as last year, beven Re publicans retired, and either suooeeded themselves or were suoceeded by Republlo ana.

The H ntmeg State Goes Republican by ft Large Majority. New Mavrw, Nov. 4. Connecticut gives a rousing plurality for McKlnley and Hobart, elects the entire state ticket for the Republican party, chooses Re publican general assembly and state sen ate, which on joint ballot will elect to the United States senate Orrllle H. Piatt aa his own successor, and returns to congress the present Hepublloan members from eaoh of the four dlatrlots of the Nutmeg state. The total vote was 176.000, the largest In the history of tha state. The majority for MoKlnley and Hobart la fully 60,000. McKlnley, 101,088; Bryan, 61,888; Pal mer, 4,081; Levering, 1,678; scattering, BSD. For governor, Cooke (Rep. ) has a plurality of 61,008. Hartford. The total presidential vote of this city Is: MoKlnley, 0,040; Bryan, 4,167; Palmer, 480. Chairman Fyler of the Republican state committee makes the following statement: "With very town but one heard from MoKlnley has 64,600 majority In Connea tlcnt and about 68, 600 majority for Cooke for governor. Four Republican congress men are elected by majorities ranging from 8,000 to 16,000. Legislature will be about 886 out of 868 representatives, and senate wholly Republican. EASTERN STATES. Hhode Island. Providence, Nov. 4. Aa aoon aa tha returns from tha Rboda Island towns be gan to come In It was very evident that the atate gave MoKlnley an overwhelming majority. The Demooratls themselves admit that tha state baa given MoKln ley a plurality of 16,000, while the Repub licans olalm 86,000, the blggeat plurali ty ever given In Rhode Island. The gold Democratlo voteln Rboda Island baa opt arret a. hobart. a sorry figure. The total vote oast for the gold standard candidates la very small. In tha two congressional districts the vote follows close to that oast for the national ticket. Melville Bull and Adln F. Cap ron, the congressional candidates from the First and Seoond districts, are eleoted by pluralities which surpass any on record In tha state. The fact Is Rhode Island la mora overwhelmingly Republican than It has ever been, and the total vote oast Is also tha largest on record." Maine. Portland, Nov. 4. The election In Maine proved one of the quietest In the state a history. Generally the returns show ed a falllDg oft of the Democratlo vote and a slight Increase In the Republican vote, whlob accounts In a great measure for the heavy Republican plurality. On the whole tha vote showed no material change from that In the recent state election. Tha vote oast for Palmer and Buokner waa not as heavy as anticipated and had little effect on the general result. The aooarate fig ures of the plurality depend npon returns from remote dlstrlots, but 40,000 Is con sidered aa a conservative figure. I Massachusetts. Bobtoiv, Nov. 4. McKlnley ' majority over Bryan In Massachusetts Is phenom enally large, probably 160,000, and the Republican atate tioket la elected by near ly It not quite 130,000. The Democratic maoblne, while not allying Itself with the Palmer-Buokner people, baa exerted all Its strength against Williams, the candi date of the party for governor. Boston, heavily Democratlo always, baa given Mo Klnley majority of 80,000 and Woloott (for governor) one ot 88,000. Tha Palmer and Buokner vote In tha entire state Is between 16,000 and 80.000. araaoat. Whits HrvERjOKcnoB-, Nor. . Beau tiful weather throughout Vermont yester day helped to bring out a large vote. Re turns earns In slowly. Returns from 180 towns give MoKlnley 88,007; Bryan, 7,680; Palmer, 887; Levering, 614. Re publican plurality, 80,688; majority over all, 80,087. The same towns In 1808 gave Harrison 88,441; Cleveland, 11,788; Wea ver, 1,081 ; scattering, 8. Republican plu rality, 18,710; majority over all, 16,700. The percentage of gain In tba Republican vote Is nearly 84 per oent, and the loss In the Demooratlo vote 88 per oent New Hampshire. Concord, Nov. 4. MoKlnley oarriea New Hampshire by 86,000 plurality. Ran dall la eleoted governor by 80,000 plurality. SOUTHERN 8TATES. Tennessee. Nashville, Nov. 4. Secretary Sam B. Wilkinson ot tha Tennessee atate Demo cratic oommlttee aaya: "From all reports reoelved I feel oertaln that this state la safely Democratlo. Bryan will receive not less than 86,000 majority. Taylor for gov ernor la aura The legislature la sure. Eight of ten congressmen are Democratic. Our reports bave not been full, but from tha different sections ot the state from which they euraa Democratlo gains are everywhere Indicated and reported. The estimates we bave made are fulfilled and I think tha figures) given oan be relied upon. The best Information obtainable at this bour Is that Bryan has earried tba state by a sate majority, without oountlng the up river and back oonntles, whloh oannot be beard from. Tha Republican oommlt tee admits that Bryan bas oarrled tha state. As between Taylor (Dem.) and Tillman (Rep.) for governor the vote is oluee and both parties claim a vlotory, the ohanoua favoring Taylor. Tha figures oan not be given, because returns from none ot tha oounties are oomplete. The Hepublloan state oommlttee tur- nishos the following statement: "The vote, if counted as oast, will give Tennes see to MuKluley and Hobart, as well as to Tillman fur governor, by a large majority bot information from large ouuucies In middle and western Tennessee Indicates frauds by Democratic election officers on a large sjjjils ad io a qajiiberof euuatles where they bare not been heretofore prac ticed.'1 Florida. jACitflOirvil.Mt, Nov. 4. Bryan and Fewall carry Florida by a majority over MoKlnley closely estimated at 18,000 to 14,600 as against a majority of 18,000 (or Bloxbam (Dem.) for governor over Gun by (Rep.) in the state election Out. 8. The returns received last night covering one-fourth at the state show a loss ot abont 4 per sent In the Democratlo vote and a gain ot 80 per cent In tha Republic an. The figures for 187 precincts, lnolad lna the cities of Jacksonville, Tampa, Ksy West and Pensaoola, give Bryan 0,664 agalnat 10,108 for Bloxham In tha state election, and McKlnley 6,891 against 8,870 for Gunny in uotoner. xne ropu list vote almost vanished, amounting to only 847 In the same precincts. The gold standard Democratlo ticket developed Bo strength outside of the cities and large towns. The 187 precincts reported gave tha Palmer and Buokner electors 080 votos. . Maryland. 1 Baltimore, Nov. 4. The Democrats of Maryland, under the leadership of Sena tor Gorman, hava again tasted the bitter ness of a defeat so crushing as to be al most disheartening. The almost phenome nal majority of 80,000 for Lowndes a year ago bas been more than duplicated, as Mo Klnley leads Bryan Dy u,uuu, u,uuu oi wblcb has been contributed by Baltimore olty, heretofore a Gibraltar of Democracy. Five Republican congressmen nave surety been elected, the only doubtful district at this writing being tba First, In whloh Joshua W. Mile (Dem.), may be re-eleoted. Mr. Miles, although running on sliver platform, has always favored tha gold standard, and many thins ne may ds relied upon to vote that way If returned to oongress. There was no state tioket in the field, and a detailed vote In a case Ilka this would appear sopernuoua Delaware. WILMIKOTOW, Nov. 4. On aoooont of tha length of the tioket and mnoh scratch ing the count of tha vote In Delaware Is very alow. Up to 1 o'olook this morning not one-fourth of the districts nave peen reported. Enough Is known, however, to Indicate surely that MoKlnley nas oarriea the state by about 1,000 majority. In oth er respeots, owing to the division of the Republican party Into two motions, the Democrats have been successful. They hava eleoted Tnnnell governor and Handy to congress by about 6,000 plnrallty eaoh. They have also eleoted a majority ot the legislature. Louisiana. New Orleans, Nov. 4 Returns so far reoelved make It absolutely oertaln that Bryan bas oarrled the state by probably 80,000 plurality, and that tha Democrats have elected congressmen as follows, all for silver: First district, General Adolpb Meyers; Seoond, Judge R. V. Davey; Third, R. F. Broussard; Fonrth, Henry W. Ogden; Fifth, S. 7. Batrd; Sixth, Samuel Robertson. West Virginia. Wheeling, Nov. 4. Tha return a are very slow In coming In from the remote dlstrlots, and a correct estimate oannot be given for aeveral boura. Chairman Daw son of tha ' Republican state committee claims that MoKlnley bas oarrled West Virginia by from 13,000 to 16,000, and tha Republican stats tioket and fonr Repub lican congressmen are eleoted. Missouri. ST. Louis, Nov. 4. It Is doubtful If the oomplete returns for St Louis will be reoelved before noon today. At an early bour this morning only 08 out of 486 pre- olnots have been returned, and 5 out of 88 wards In the olty bavs not been beard from at all. The returns from the state outside the olty of St. Louis are even mora meager and Incomplete. Texas, SAif Antonio, Nov. 4. Bryan's major ity in Texas will be 76,000 majority. Dem ocratlo state ticket will run 60,000 behind Bryan a How Oongress Will Stand. New York, Nov. 4. The Times hat the following on the congressional situa tion: The Republicans hava secured oontrol of both branohea of tha Fifty-fifth eon grass. In the senate tha Republloana gain sen a tors from Kantuoky, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, New York, South Da kota, Wlsoonsin and Washington. Free sliver haa now 40 votes In tba sen ate. It will have but 48 after March 4, Vest Is doomed to retirement from Mis souri; Voorhees will be beaten In In diana; Ingalls may return from Kansas; Hill will be followed by a Republican rrom ma atate ot Mew York, With tbs majority seoured by tba Re publicans that party will be abla to carry any political legislation It desires through the senate. The bouse of representatives will be Re publican by nearly. If not quite, 180 ma jority, the lndioatlons promising to give to the Republloana most ot the dlatrlots reported aa doubtful. Tha Democrats noma out ot tha election wltb very tew solid delegations to the next house. Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina. form the short line of "solid" states. The majority in tha -house for sound money will be approximately tba Repub. lloan majority. A Republican In Colorado Is tor free silver, one Democrat In Kan tuoky Is for tbs gold standard and was In dorsed by the Republloana; tha Silver party elected tha Nevada repesentatlva, who Is unwilling to be classed wltb tithes of the other parties. Silver Diok Bland la probably beaten In Missouri, but Ob jector Holman bas been onos mora eleoted from Indiana. Babeoek aa Congress. Washington, Nov. 4. Chairman Bab- oook of tha Hepublloan oeogreeslonal oort)1 mlttee says: "The returns reoelved hers fully verify the predictions whlob have been made by toe Republican oonaressional oommlttee. For months It haa been patent to all fa miliar wltb tha polltioal eltuatlon that there oould be but one result, tha ava lanche whloh we have foreseen and an nounced, but It must be admitted tba de tails already reoelved axoeed our axnocta- tlocs.

The Section Wherein the Battle Raged Most Fiercely. , Mil Jt LEY GETS BUCKEYE STATE, Ohio Gives Her Favorite Son a Rousing Msjorlty Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana and Minnesota For the Gold Standard. Nebrasl:a la Doubt, Chicago, Nov. 4.-The return i received by the Associated Press np to midnight Indicate the probable election of MoKln ley and Hobart, although returns are so meager from a number of doubtful states that this oonoluslon oan only be reached by an estimate based npon the gains and losses. The best estimates obtainable In dicate that Maine and Vermont have given majorities somewhat reduoed from the September elections; that Nsw Hamp shire gives about 80,000; Massachusetts about 180,000 and Rhode Island and Con necticut proportionate majorities, all for MoKlnley. New York Is estimated at above 860,000, and Pennsylvania Is likely to reach tha aame figure, If not a greater. Maryland haa been oarrled for the Repub lican candidate for president by a majori ty exceeding 80,000 and Delaware claimed by both, apparently In dispute, although the plurality la not likely to exceed 1,000. The returns from West Virginia are not sufficient to justify tha olalm of either party. Ohio haa given a very large Re publican plurality, and Kentuoky Is ap parently assured to the McKlnley oolumn, although later returns may not justify this olalm. Tennessee seems to have been carried for Bryan, notwithstanding tha confident assertions to tbs contrary of the Hepublloan managers, and the same Is probably true of North Carolina. Indiana and Michigan as well as Minnesota Indi cate heavy Hepublloan gains and a strong probability that they have gone for Mo Klnley. Illinois will give MoKlnley over 100,000 plurality, and Nebraska and North and South Dakota are very olosa and still In doubt. Wyoming seems to have gone for MoKlnley, The returns from the Pa olflo ooaat states are too meager to justify any olalm respecting them. The states of Virginia, South Carolina, Florid, Geor gia, Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Lou isiana, Colorado, Nevada, Montana and Idaho may safely be plaoed In tha Bryan oolumn. The returns from Kansas and Texas are scattering and tndloates noth ing, although heavy Republican gains are reported from Dallas and Galveston. "I bave seen no unfavorable report from any state that we bave ever claimed except from Kentucky," said Chairman Jones lata last night. "Reports from that state Indicate a larger defection than we had anticipated, but we do Dot concede that state by any means Wa ean lose Ken tuoky and will then have enough electoral votes to win." Chairman Jonea says bs haa reoelved a message from State Chair man Martin stating that Indiana waa ab solutely oertaln for Bryan. Private tele grams from Mlohlgan Indicate large Dem ocratlo gains, and tha Demooratlo com mittee based their hopea of Bryan's eleo tlon npon tha result In these two states, Ohio. Columbus, O,, Nov. 4. On comparison ot tha vote with that of tha last presi dential election, Onlo made unprecedented gains for MoKlnley. In 1808 Harrison oarrled Ohio by an average plurality for Hepublloan eleotors of 1,078. In that year one of the Cleveland and Stevenson eleot ors waa eleoted. In 1808 MoKlnley bad a plurality of over 80,000 for governor. Tne Republloana oarrled Ohio in 1804 by 187,000, and last year Buthnell (Rep ), waa sleeted governor by over 08,000. The Republicans bave bad phenomenally large pluralities In Ohio tba past three years, oommenulng with MoKlnley'a re-election aa governor In 1803, while In 1808 the re sult was very olosa. The state In 1808. for the first time, did not give Its entire elect oral vote to the Republican presidential oandldate. Tha largest plurality ever given a Republican presidential ticket In Oblo waa 84,000, for Garfield In 1880. Chairman MoConvllleof the Demooratlo state executive oommlttee states that ha thought tha later returns would show Demooratlo gain In Ohio to offset tha heavy Republican galna In Hamilton, Franklin and other oountlea. He said that It looked as If the Republicans had oarrled tha state, but waa unwilling to glva figures until fuller returns bad been received. Canton. The dlspatohes reoelved hen Indicate that Nebraska, Kansas and Kan tuoky are In doubt, and no positive claims are made of them by Major MoKlnley'a friends. Michigan. Detroit, Nov. 4. It Is evident that tha Republloana have oarrled Mlohlgan by 40,000 to 60,000 for MoKlnley, and that Plngree (Rep.), is elected governor by a majority not far short of that given Mo Klnley. Chairman Baker ot the Denio- eratlo atate oommlttee declined to make any statement further than that the few oouDtlea from whloh he had reoelved returns ahow average galna tor tha sliver tlokst of 1, 600 over tha Demooratlo majori ties of 1808. Democrats elected aa con gressman Todd, Third dlstrlot, and prob ably Brucker, Eighth dlstrlot, wltb Tenth dlstrlot doubtful. Returns from 8V coun ties ot tbs 84 give MoKlnley 88,887; Bryan, 1,600; Plngree (Rap.), 17,108; Blogb (Dem.), 8,426. Indiana. Indianapolis, Nov. 4. Chairman Gowy of tba Republican state oommlttee aays Indiana will give MoKlnley a plurality of 80,000. Eleven Bepablloan congressmen will be eleoted; two In doubt Wa will oairy both branches ot tha legislature by a safe majority. Chairman Martin of tba Demooratlo oom ml tee says: "At this boor. on aooount of tha fact that returns bava been reoelved only from olties where Dem ooratlo losses were anticipated, no estimate of any reliability oan be made. Later re turns from oountry dlstrlots will show large Demooratlo gains, and I still believe they will more than equal tba losses In the olties." Keataeky. LoUisvTLLE, Not. 4. Chairman Sam Roberts of the Rspubloan oommlttee give out the following: "Kentuoky baa gone for MoKlnley by a larger majority than It gave to Bradley last year. Early re turns lndloated 16,000 to 80,000 majority, but surprisingly heavy Democratlo gaina la the Populist-Silver strongholds of west ern Kentuoky may reduoe this to 10,000 or 18,000, Tba Republicans bave eleoted congressmen In six dlstrlots, and aeveral are ia doubt Those elected: Hunter in the Third, Evans In the Fifth, Davison in tba Eighth, Pugh in the Ninth, Langley ia the Tenth and Colaon In ths Eleventh. IUlaels. CaiOASO. Nov. 4. Sound mousy baa triumphed ia Chicago and Cook eounty and carried Illinois by st least 180,080. On this Issue MoKlnley oarrled ths olty by 68,000 and Cook oonnty by something over 80,000, The Republican wards ail shew tremendous gains, while in tha former Demooratlo strongholds tba bryaa vote slumped off. The south side wards gave heavy MoKlnley majorities, while the Bryan vote sum from the stockyards and adjoining labor sections. Scattering re turns from tba stele outside the olty show the Hepublloan vole la equal to thai polled by ths party in lass, when It oarrled tha ttaje oiitalds vf Cauk fiPWUVT 01 70,ooo.

Although Governor Altgnld Will run 80,000 ahnjnl of Brysn In Cook oonnty and out John H. lanner s plnrallty down to 80.000. the Indications are that ha will be beaten by 70,000 votes In the state. WESTERN STATES. Nebraska. Lincoln. Nov. 4. Whlla Post Is still puhlloly olnlmlng the atate for MoKlnley, attaches of his headauartsrs say that be really regards the state aa aouDtiui end possibly aa lost. Returns so far reoelvod are eo meager aa to render it Impossible to give a very Intelligent opin ion, but so fur as they go they Indioate sufficient gains to give the state to Bryan by about 8,000. If maintained, the ma jority will certainly be very small either way. Chairman Mnnahan of the Lancas ter county Democratlo committee predicts 80,000 Democratic majority and says he is supported in this olalm by the islon atate chairman. He says the Lincoln ma jority Is a loss to the Republicans of 1,500 and that the full returns from the coun try preolnote outside the olty will reduce Morkiniey a majority to about 800. Mr. Mnnahan expresses ths belief that tha f u- slonlsta will eleot alx of the congressmen from Nebraska. He asserts that Pradlev la oertalnly eleoted from this, the First, dis trict From late and trustworthy retnrna received from the state the indications are very strong that Bryan will oarrv the state by a small majority. The returns rrom the cities of Omaha and Lincoln, where the MoKlnley majorities were ex pected, are practloally In, and It la evident that they will not be sufficient to over come that from the rural dlstrlots In fa vor of Bryan, Sooth Dakota. YANKTOW, Nov. 4. Chairman Elliott of the Republican oommlttee Is aaDgulne that his estimate ot 80,000 for MoKlnley will be low. It all depends npon the ooun try precincts. Ths towns all give MoKln ley good majorities, but the oountry la lia ble to reduoe ihe majority to 60,000. About all that oan bs lenrned this morn ing will be the rosult on presidential elect ors, even if that shall be known. The bal lots are so badly scratched that the count oannot be oompleted In any of the large preolnota before morning. Yankton. Chairman Elliott of the Re publican commltte la sanguine that his estimate of 8,000 for MoKlnley will be low. It all depends npon the country preolnots.

Thnt impure water may be ren5 tiered pure Tiy being filtered through clmrconl. Tliat a spoonfnl of grated horse- jndi.sh will keep milk sweet for days. That to wrap cutlery in coarse brown paper will keep it from rust ing. That lemons are improved by keeping in cold water until needed for uso. That a pan of hot water in an oven prevents the contents from seorchiiifj. That all corks should be washed, thoroughly dried and kept for any future call. That bonilli is not a soup, but is the beef which has been boiled in making broth. Thnt roaches and creeping things are best dostroyed by tho use of hot alum water. a ROASTING SMALL BIRDS. When roasting small birds always fasten the heads under tho wings and lay a thin slice of pork on tho breast of each bird and a piece of bread underneath. A bird would not be complete without its bed and blanket. BORDEAUX SAUCE. Two gallons of cabbage, sliced or chopped, not too fine, one gallon of green tomatoes, sliced a little thick er than you would slice cucumbers for table use, ono ounce of whole cloves, tho same of whole pepper and celery seed, ono ounco of ground ginger.and half a pint of white mus tard seed, a gill and a half of salt, and half an ounce of tumeric to give a nice color. Add one pound of su gar and one gallon of best vinegar ; mix well and boil twenty minutes. This may keep without, but is best sealed in jars while hot. ' . GREEN TOMATO PICKLE. Slice and salt down well as many greon tomatoes as you desire ; lot them lay a day or two in the brine which they make. Squeeze them out and boil in clear water ton min utes. Peol a dozen or more onions or slice ; alternate with layers of each, sprinkling over whole spices and pepper, cloves and celery seed, with little sugar each time. When all is used, pour over enough strong vinegar to cover and seal up. You must drain tomatoes from the water, but no more boiling is needed. WILTED ENDIVES. Cut into small pieces one head of endive tako one-fourth pound of ham (one-third of the quantity be ing fat) or the same quantity of ba con, cut into small dice, put into a pan and fry until crisp. Beat one egg slightly, add to it one heaping teaspoonful of Bait, two dessert spoonfuls of sugar, six tablespoon fuls of vinegar, five tablespoonfuls of water, four dashes of black pep per ; mix thoroughly, add it to tho ham, boil about one minute, pour it over the endive and serve at once. . CREAMED OYSTERS The followiag is Miss Parloa's re- ceipt for creamed oysters : Tako one and one-half pints of oysters, three gills of milk or cream, ono tablospoouful of flour, one teaspoon - of salt, one-fifth teaspoonful of pep per, a tiny piece of mace, one-half teaspoonful of onion juice. Put the milk and mace in a double boiler, and set on tho fire. Mix the flour with throe tablespoonfuls of cold milk reserved from tho three gills, and stir into the boiling milk. Cook for ton minutos. Heat the oysters to the boiling point in their own li quor ; then skim and drain them and put with the salt, pepper and onion juice into tho thickened cream, und servo. If milk be used add a tublespoonful of butter to tho thickened milk. Mew Saws. Nothing is dear that pays. Tho man who waits gets used to it. Selfishness never wears the sigh. "To Let." A policeman is not necessarily a figure of justice. Success spoils more good fellows than the drink habit. Tho value of a cold plunge depends on one's recuperative powers. A man never marries the woman he jokes about ; women often marry tho men they luugh at. The trouble with tho United States to-day is that wo have too much news, and too little information.
