JACKSON, GA., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1892. MACUNE 8 OPINION, As to Ihe future of The Ailiance. Dr. MaCune spont Sunday in At lanta and on being questioned as h* his opinion to the future of the A1 ltance replied : “Symplj this: that when next annual convention is held, the •out! ern delegets will go there and wrest the con oefn from the hands of these |K>litican alliancemen and put it bsck upon its feet a* an agricul tural organ zaiion, calculated to tienefit the poor oppressed farmers of the south. And, they are goirg to do it—oh yon bet they are going to doit! “If they don’t do it; if the farmers nt the south don’t go the re with dues in their pockets and say to those third psrtv polit cians: 'Give us bsck our alli*nce, or we will pay 'ou no more money into the treae ury as dues.’ then the alliance is a dead creature and will have died none to soon if this is the way it is to lie run. “I *ell you but the airarle truth. I have no fsith in the alliance as lung as it is a political machine. If it is to be such a thing the best course for the |*eople of the south, who were to be bent-fitted, is to pull out of it and reorganise. “It will never dj to make i a third party machin*, nor a demo cratic machine, nor a republican, machine. When politics come into the concern then its usefulness is destroyed forever and and that is what. I was fighting to prevent out iu Memphis.*'. TOOK ALL THE BLUE RIBBON.

How a Woman May Dress on SSO a Year. Valuable Suggestions forth* Woman of Limited Means—Theodore Park er's Wedding Resolutions—Hints tc the Housekeeper. "Is it possible to dress on SSO a year?” was one of the questions discussed in a woman’s club lately in Providence. One of the women said: "I’ve done it—good reason why, though—l’ve had to. I’ve had hard work at times to get even SSO a year. "How do I manage? Well, lust the same as everything else; I nad to. I studied it up; made an exact science of it. If you desiru to try it, the first thing to be done is to get a little account book; write a few maxims on the flyleaf and live up to them. Buy nothing but the standard goods for your dresses; cashme • , Henriettas, flannels, serges in soud colors are always in style. Only a rich woman can afford novelties. Your dresses will have to last you three seasons and be made over once at least, perhaps twice; so you see if you buy striking colors or plaids, however pretty, they will be genuine antiques the third season and give a hopelessly dowdy look. Bea woman of three dresses, one for the street, one for the house and one for nice. One new dress a year will keep you in three. Make up your mind to skip bar gain sales. Buy your things be tween seasons; you can get a winter cloak in December or Jan uary much cueaper than you can in October. A good heavy snort black coat, wnich ought to last for two seasons, may be had for $lO or sls, spring coat ditto, only as to cost, whicn should not exceed $6. It pays to buy pretty good shoes. Tnat’s an item that’s hard to regulate. Some people wear out more shoe leather man others. One pair of heavy snoes and a pair of ties last me a year. Gloves cause an awful nole; two pairs kid at $1.25 a pair, two pairs silk at 50 cents, woolen, lisle thread, lace mitts, $1.50. As to hats, my limit is four. I man age to get them all out of $lO, but i trim tnein myselr. A supply of underwear will last at least two years. I hope yon won’t believe I put that question asido, but I’ve got a little list of last year’s ex penditures, which may be interest ing. Here it is: Four hats, $10; gloves, $4.50; shoes, $5; winter coat, $10; making over dress, $5; new blue lienneita, $11; balance for laces, underwear, etc., $4.60; total, SSO. Mosquitoes- The odor of pennyroyal is thi most effective thing to drive away mosquitoes. Tne essential oil sold in the drug stores is hardly so ef fectual as the fresh herb itself. A bouquet of these fragrant herbs will usually drive away this trou blesome pest. The best antidote for the bice of a mosquito is un doubtedly ammonia, weakened with a little water or salt and water. Some people go so far as to press the poison out of the bite with some small metal instrument like the point of a watch key be fore applying the antidote. This prevents the painful swelling that sometimes occurs. There are a great many objections to mos quito bars, the chief of which is tno sense of suffocation which their use engenders. They keep out mosquitoes, but they also keep out the pure, fresh air. A Set of Wedding-Day Resolution* When Theodore Parker was married he entered in his journal his wedding-day the following resolutions: 1. Never, except for the best of reasons, to oppose my wife’s will. 2. To discharge all duties for her sake freely. 3. Never to scold. 4. Never to look cross at her. 5. Never to worry her with com mands. 6. To promote her piety. 7. To bear her burdens. 3. To overlook her foibles. 9. To save, cherish and foreve’ defend her. 10. To remember her always in my prayers. l:ius, God willing, we shall be blessed. The commandments which Par ker put upon himself are like the old decalogue, all comprehended in one —love.

A letter once mailed no longer belongs to the sender, but is the property of the person to whom it is addressed. Such is the postal law, but the "Youth’s Companion” says it is a law often violated bv postmasters in small places where correspondents are likely to be per sonally known to the postoffice au thorities and sometimes leads to curious complications in large ones where this is not the case. Im portant business interests have been affected by the same law. A firm which had long been really insolvent had succeeded in keeping the knowledge from the public and continued to receive money from investors, which the partners employed dishonestly for their own advantage. It was their intention to raise one more large sum of money, part of which was to be contributed by a business friend of one of them, and then to leave the country with their spoil and let their creditors shift for themselves. But the wife of the business friend and the wife of tho man who meant to victimize him frequently corresponded with each other and the latter wrote a gay, gossiping letter to the former, in which she mentioned that her hus band had been in poor health lately on account of business troubles, but that she trusted their approach ing trip to Canada would restore him. Remembering too late that her husband had asked her to mention neither of these facts, and, fearing to vex him, she went to the post office to recall her letter. The postmaster refused to give it up. IShe could not give no good reason for demanding it and she became petulant and irritated when ho con tinued to refuse. He remained firm and the letter was sent. Tne recipient showed it to her husband, whose suspicions it aroused. He made an investigation, and, as a consequence, the dishonest firm was broken up and both the part ners arrested and punished. Intercepted letters have long been a popular theme of drama and romance. A letter which could not be intercepted, but had to go in spite of the sender’s ex press desire and entreaty, mighi offer an intoresiing variety. Curiosities About Boots- Boots, which are only a length ened variety of shoes, were among the most ancient articles of attire. Shoes extending a certain height up the leg, laced, ornamented and of fanciful colors, were in use by ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans. Different kinds of half boots were worn by the Anglo- Saxons. In the reign of Ed ward IV, the boot proper, with tops and spurs, was established as an article of knightly dress. In the reign of Charles I. a boot, wide at the top, made of Spanish leather, came into use. Charles 11. introduced a highly decorated French boot as an article of gay courtly attire. Meanwhile the boot, or ackboot, as it is called, had become indispensible in the costume of cavalry soldiers and horsemen generally, and was regu larly naturalized by William 111. and his followers in England. The jackboot was strongly made, ex tending in length above the knee, was large at the top with very high heels; where they encircled the ankle there was a band with a strong spur. A Map Made of Pickles. At the World’s Fair next year a Pennsylvania firm will exhibit a map of the United States, 18 feet by 24 feet, made entirely of pickles, vegetable, fruit, etc., preserved by the company which makes the ex hibit. The State lines will be ac curately shown, and the lakes and rivers will be represented by vine gar. The larger cities will be in dicated by spices. The whole will be covered by a single piece of plate glass, which is being made specially for the purpose. The ex pense of this exhibit of the pickling and preserving industry will be $15,000. Curious Facts. It costs the government just 3.2 mills to make a paper dollar. Indiana has more Germans than any other State. They constitute 55 per cent, of the population. Telephoning and telegraphing by the same hne has been success fully experimented in France, it is said. Mrs. Mina Ludwig, of East Ded ham, has a freak of nature that was hatched out by one of her hens, a chicken with two bills and three eyes. A woman in Bath, Me., who has brought up seventeen of her own children, of whom ten still live, recently adopted another to save it from an asylum. The oldest hotel in Switzerland, and probably in the world, is the Hotel of the Three Kings at Basle. Among its guests in 1020 were the Emperor Conrad 11., his son, Henry 111., and Rudolph, the last King of Burgundy. A. G. HITCHENS, Jackson, - Georgia. ’cd Now is the time to get your goods cheap!
