CONCRESTIONAL TICKET.
FOR CONGRESS,
(First Congressional Distiict.)
W. J. CONNELL.
Cleveland Leader: Business pros
pacta are made bright by the hopeful
feeling which prevails regarding the
future of trade. Anticipations of pros
perity have kept apnee with hopes of
republican success. Money will feel sate
under a safe man like Harrison.
Thousands of votes are lost every
election by inconsiderate removals, which
by a little forethought on the part of the
mover, might be prevented. It is a whole
some law that requires a residence of a
certain time before election day to enable
one to cast a vote. Find out what that
time is, and don't lose your vote. Stop
moving until after November 6.
Here is a signilicent item which ap
pears in the Deficiency bill of congress:
" To pay William Cramp & Sons for
wharfage for monitor Terror, $3,3r0." It
means simply that the Terror was tied up
at one of the wharves of the Cramps' for
3:15 davs at a cost of S10.000 a diy to
the government. She was brought to the
Brooklyn navy yard a few weeks ngo.
and is one of the vessels whose immediate
completion Secretary Whitney considers
so necessary that the law which prohibits
the increase of force at the navy yard
within sixty days of a general election
must be suspended. New York Tribune.
In the editorial sanctums of the Boston
Herald, New York Times, New York
Post New York Commercial-Advertiser,
and every leading democratic newspaper
in the land, there is an editor charged
with the special duty of critically dis
secting every speech 'made by General
Harrisor, in the hope that some "blunder"
can be found in them, that can be used
gainst him, and against the republican
party. These men have worked hard
and they are skilled workmen. What
have they found? Well, that's just what
those who pay their salaries would like
to know.
There is to be no independent or mug
wump party in this campaign. Those
who left the republican party in 1S84, be
cause they could not vote for a man
whose record was not clean, will now
join themselves to one party cr the other.
They have no such excuse as they had
- four years ago. General Harrison is
worthy any man's support. If.they go
into the democratic party, it will be
because four years of affiliation with that
party has converted them to its ways and
principles, or because they are and have
been at heart out of accord with the
republican doctrine of protection. If
they want to take the road to free trade
the democratic party is their proper com
pany. The republican party is commit
ted heart and soul to the policy of pro
tection of American interests; and cn
this issue it goes to the people, and con
fidently expects to win.
HE WO XT ENVORiE HILL.
While petitions are being signed -by
thousands of New York patriots beseech
ing Grorcr Cleveland to com out of bis
Me md endorse th regular democratic
oomino for governor of that stute. and
nfcLVBr-i Livzliyr ' lV t
and refusing to let any such endorsement
go out, the administration democrats are
trying to secure the sacrifice of Dave
Hill as a sin offering on the altar of
"Destiny" who seems inclined to turn
her back on her favorite son by circu
lating pledgi s among the faithful to the
effect that they will work und vote, tooth
and nail, for the presidcntal ticket and
will not vote for Hill for governor. The
state of the democratic party, if these
things go on another month, can be as
easily imagined as described, if not more
so. David lias already endorsed Grovcr,
but he is a bald headed and slick old
statesman, and every thing ho writes has
a string attached, the end of which is
under his pillow. Lincoln Journal.

Getting Xleady fur SickneM.
Sickness will come into every family some
time or other, and it is well to be prepared
for it, especially if one lives away from a
good doctor. By taking care of one's self in
time, one can often avoid sickness and the
doctor's bill. One tldnjj every family ought
to have, and that is a rubber hot-water bag.
They are not expensive, and useful many
times. For severe pain anywhere it can be
spiled, and works like maglo in many cases.
Congestion, rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica,
baby's colic, all will yield to the warmth or

tack. If baby cries with colic the hot-water
bag laid in the crib beside It will often cure
without internal medicine. The longer I
lire the more I believe in external, instead of
internal, remedies when they will possibly
answer, especially for young children.
If one has a cold coming on it can often be
stopped by taking it in season. Soaking the
feet in hot mustard water, rubbing dry, put
ting the child into a warm bad with t he hot
water bottle at the back (when the chill be
gins) and soaps tone at the feet, giving hot
lemonade to drink, and nothing to cat save a
little toasted bread or gruel for twelve hours,
will often effect a cure without medicine. If
tho lungs seem stuffed up put on a flaxseed
raeal poultice covered with dry flannel.
The easiest way of making a poultice is to
put on tho back of stove to beat a tin plate,
lay on this a piece of soft cottou cloth. Put
sufficient meal in a bowl, pour on boiling
water, stirring briskly and making R3 stiff as
you can, and spread it. Spread over one

Consumption Curable.
Since the fact that consumption is bot'n
preventable, and in its earliest state cur
able, it has lost much of its terror. If
the first symptoms are at once recog
nized, and the proper remedy applied,
very few, if any one, need die of con
sumption, which is really lung-scrofubi
Like many other diseases this formidable
one grows out of impure blood, and this,
in turn, from a diseased liver. Hence,

all the result of depraved blood and a

METHODS OF COURTING.
THE SAVAGE LOVER GENERALLY
SHOWS A LACK OF TENDERNESS.
('urt.hlp Among th IUqulmux How
the Australian Captures Ills Bride The
Style i Certain Parts of Asia A Curi-
oim Custom In Holland
Among the ancient Assyrians all mar
riageable young girls wcro assembled at
one place, and tho public crier put them
up for sale one after the other. The
money which was received for thoBe who
were handsome, and consequently sold
well, was bestowed as a wed dinar portion
on those who were plain. Whon the most
beautiful had been disposed of the more
ordinary looking ones were offered for a
certain sum, and allotted to those willing
to take them.
In ancient Greece the lover was seldom
favored with an opportunity of telling
his passion to his mistress, and he used
to publish it by inscribing her name on
the walls, on the bark of the trees in the
public walks, and upon the leaves of
books. lie would decorate the door of
her house with garlands, and make liba
tions of wine before it, in the manner
that was practiced in the Temple of
Cupid.
According to Dr. Hayes, courtship
among the Esquimaux has not much
tenderness about it. The match Is made
by tho parents of the couple. Tho lover
must go out and capture a Polar bear as
an evidence of his courage and strength.
That accomplished, ho sneaks behind the
door of his sweetheart s house, and when
she comes out he pounces upon her and
tries to carry her to his dog sledge. She
screams, bites, kicks .and breaks away
from him. He gives chase, whereupon all
the old women of the settlement rush out
and beat her with frozen strips of seal
skin. She falls down exhausted, the
lover lashes her to his sledge, whips up
his dogs, dashes swiftly over the frozen
snow, and the wedding is consummated.
The Australian lover is still more lack
ing in tenderness, if the statement made
by Myers Deley is true. The lover makes
up his mind as to which woman shall be
his bride, and then hides In the bushes in
the vicinity of her dwelling. As soon as
she comes near the spot where he is con
cealed he knocks her down with a club.
and carries her off before she comes to. If
he does not get her to his hut before she
recovers thero is likely to be a lively hght
In the bush, for the Australian damsel is
generally a vigorous one, and may have
reasons of her own for objecting to his at
tentions. The lover may then be obliged to
club her again, and as that is considered
to be somewhat of a reflection on the ardor
with which hi earlier effort was made, he
is apt to put as much soul and muscle
into his first love tap as he can summon.
In some parts of Asia the question of a
man s title to a bride must be settled by
a fierce fight between the friends of the
contracting parties. If his forces are vic
torious, his sweetheart becomes his
trophy. If her friends are victorious, he
must pay such price as the victors de
mand. All over that country some cer
emony of violence or exhibition of phy
sical power must precede a weddincr.
Some native tribes insist upon a foot race
between the bride and bridegroom to de
cide the question of marriage, and others
require a long chase on horseback. In
some sections of Asia the lover must
carry off his bride on his back. If he
reaches his hut with her, there can be no
protest against the marriage. Failing in
that, he must pay her parents for her in
cattle. The willing bride makes no out
cry; tho unwilling bride rouses the whole
village, tho residents of which try to res
cue her.
In tho Isthmus of Darien either sex can
do the courting, while in the Urkraine
the girl generally attends to It. When
she falls in love with a man, she goes to
his house and declares her passion. If he
declines to accept her, she remains there.
and his case becomes rather distressing.
To turn her out would provoke her kin
dred to avenge the insult. The young
ieuow nas no resort lert mm but to run
away from home until the damsel is other
wise disposed of.
A curious oustom prevails in Oud
Eeierland, Holland. October is the aus
picious month, and on the first Sunday
(known as review day) the lads and lasses,
attired in their best, promenade tiki
village separately, stare each other out of
countenance, and then retire to make up
their minds on the second Sunday, which
Is called decision day. lhe young men
go un and nav their compliments to the
I fair ones of their choice, to learn if they
l " . S . . .
are regarueu wuu lavor. ua jne mira
Sunday, or day of purchase, the swain is
expected to snatch the pocket handker
chief of his adored one, and if she sub
mits to it with good grace he un
derstands that his chances of winning
her are flattering. The captured
pledge is restored to the fair owner
on the fourth Sunday, the "Sunday of
Taking Possession," and it rarely nap
pens that the damsel refuses the lover for
whom she has indicated a preference. On
the Sunday following, the suitor, accord
ing to custom, calls at the house of his
inamorata, where he is asked to tea. If a
piece of the crust of a ginger bread loaf is
handed to him, there is nothing left for
him but to retiro. If, on the other hand,
tho parents offer the young man a piece
of the crumb, he is allowed to come again
and i.3 admitted into the family.
On the Island of Himia, opposite
Rhodes, a girl is ' not allowed to have a
lover until she has brought up a certain
quantity of sponges, ana given proof of
her agility to take them from a certain
depth. On the Island of Nicarus the girl
is not consulted. Her father gives her to
the best diver among her suitors. He
who can stay longest under the water and
gather the most sponges marries the
maid. Frank H. Stauffer in The Epoch.
Humorously and Tearfully True.
Mark Twain, in his dry way upon occa
sion, said: "The temptation to drink
among literary men Is not the liquor.
When a man is dissipated his friends al
ways say, 'Such a brilliant fellow if he
would only let liquor alone.' In time the
drinker gets credit for talents he never
dreamed of possessing, and there ore
many who try to pluck this brand from
the burning. The number of chances
offered to a dissipated man to reform and
earn a good living are many , more than
those open to the acceptance of a sober
and industrious young fellow. In fact
the sober and industrious are supposed to
get on any way." And tola is not only
amorously bat tearfully true. The
record of literary labor does not show
such a splendid premium on industry and
aoonety. current Literature J

We can,' dress here In four pieces, to

state occasions, socks. In town you aro
commonly bllged to put on eleven pieces
to wit: socks, shoes, drawers, pants

coat and hat. A vast amount of time
and force is used un bv mvriads of civil
lzed beings in putting on these eleven
pieces, in not weather. A vast amount
of strength is used up by simply wearing
inem. Dtarcn is misery on a sultry day.
Your linen shirt is a straight jacket; your
lightly buttoned vest and four button
cutaway are two more straight Jackets
over that. You nut on four thicknesses
of cloth to conform to the demands of
Broadway, when nature calls out but for
one, and a thin and very loose one at
that. When you have anything to do, or
you get to your office, you shuck your

and there is more air to breathe and
purer air to breathe, and consequently
more strength to be got out of such air
to help you endure your load of tight fit
ting cloth, you put on less clothing and
looser clothing. This is inconsistent. You
should wear your cumbersome starch and
tight fitting vestments where you have
the most strength to wear them.
Your vest Is a useless incumbrance. It
Is only the rudiment of the old fashioned
"waist coat. That was a coat. It
reached to the hips 140 years ago. People
then wore in substance two coats a back
coat and a front coat, now the waistcoat.
The waistcoat has been gradually grow
ing shorter. In a sack suit it Is of no
earthly use save to increase your
load in hot weather and make
you hotter. It is simply another
short coat, which you wear because
your tailor says you must. It's
like wearing one hat inside the other.
You can't even wear it out. You know
you wear out out seven pairs of pants to
one waistcoat. You know that now your
closet is full of vests left over from worn
out suits that you dont know what to do
with. You can't make them over into
pantaloons. You can't set them for eel
traps. Alone, they won't answer for
scarecrows. So millions of yards of cloth
are wastea yearly in the mating or vest.
Pull down your vest. Pull It off and
leave it off.

and four garments can be changed

lieve that dress should be neat, be
coming and as graceful as possible for
every station or calling; and because a
man Uvea where there is no public or
nubile oninion to look after him. la no
reason why he should live in rags or go
with uncombed hair. But the trouble is,
and you may see it proven every day in
the city in thousands and thousands of
cases, people haven't time nor means to
wear their eleven pieces properly, and for
that reason dingy linen is far more com
mon than that of snowy whiteness, and
a clean collar and cuffs are not proof that
they are tucked to a clean shirt, and the
necktie in two cases out of three is a base
and often unclean subterfuge and Imita
tion of something intended for an orna
ment, slung on, stuck on, fired on any
way, only because custom says it must be
put on, and put on only to be endured.

Career of the Salmon.
When the salmon is hatched he is
known as a "fry," then he becomes a
parr," or "samlet." or "putk." or
"brandllncr.' The next chamre makes
him a "smolt;" then he is transferred to
a "crilse, and finally develops into a
salmon, When leaviner salt water he is
called a "white" salmon, and when going
duck alter spawning a "biacK one or a
Kait. 'lhe baby salmon is hatched
from SO to 100 days after the erres are
laid in furrows in gravelly beds near the
neaa waters of clear, cold rivers. W hen
in the "fry" stage he is about one inch
lone:, with eozele eyes. When three
months old he becomes well shaped, with
carmine spots on the sides. He is then
so hungry and greedy he will jump at
anything. Many mistake them at this
age for trout, and it is common for mar
kets to offer them for sale as brook trout.
Only about one-half the hatch returns to
the sea, the rest remaining in fresh
water. This has been decided to be be
cause some develop more rapidly than
others, the late ones going to salt water
in the second season. The arrangement
can be accepted as a wise provision of
nature against extermination by whole
sale destruction. Globe-Democrat.
Rio la a Hill Country.
The province of Fuh-Kien, China, is
almost an unbroken stretch of hills and
mountains, a charming country to lovers
of wild scenery, but tedious to travel in,
for the only carriages are sedan chairs.
Except near the seaboard, the streams are
swift and rocky, rendering their ascent
by boat very slow. One might think that
in such a conntrv rice could not be startle.
yet on every hill and mountain where
there is a spring and soil enough to work,
there are terraces for rice. They pene

a map of the rice courses of Fuh-Kien
