Washing Flannels.
To wash flannels without shrinkage
have a tub half full of water that is
more than warm but not very hot, and
make a strong suds with laundry soap
of the best quality. Add a teaspoon
ful of powdered borax. Shake the
flannels thoroughly, then squeeze them
with the hands, sop them up and down
and, if necessary, rub the spots be
tween the hands. Do not rub soap
on the flannels and do not rub them
on a board. W ring from the first suds
and put into another of the same tem
perature. Rinse through this water,
then put them into another as warm,
that does not contain soap. Wring
dry, shake vigorously and dry quickly.
Iron before they are quite dry with a
moderately hot iron and press well.
Do not use borax for colored flunnels.
Ihe most heartless jokes are those
made which bring into ridicule the
“typewriter girl.” No woman should
be made to feel ashamed of an honora
ble occupation, and no man, with the
feelings of a man, should make light
of it.

op H. M. Jackson, sat upon his right.
Twenty-nine clergymen and lay dele
gates, representing nineteen parishes,
were present.
A,decision in the South Carolina dis
pensary law case was tiled in the
supreme court at Columbia Tuesday
adverse to the liquor men. It is sign
ed by Justice Pope, and other justices
concurring. The case came up on the

tion. The bill provides that the gov- -
ernor shall appoint a commission to
expend this money, provided the rail
roads and other corporations contri
bute another $55,000 in cash. The
bill will probably pass the house in a
few days, and there is no doubt that
the railroad jompanies will raise the
requisite amount to make the appro
priation available.
A Charleston dispatch says: The
doors of the Bank of the Carolinas,
with home office at Florence, closed

rectors. The capital stock of the bank
is nearly $60,000. It has branches at
Kingston, Conway, Williston and Yarn
ville, in South Carolina, and several
towns in North Carolina. It is be
lieved that the bank has assets to cover
all indebtedness. Stringency of the
money market and consequent inability
to realize on securities held by the
bank is the cause of the failure.

Extra Session Talk.
The democrats are already discuss
ing the work to be done by the next
congress. Mr. Cleveland has been
discussing the matter with many of
the leaders recently, and it is possible
that a financial policy will be agreed

the 10 per cent tax on the issue of
state banks repealed. It is possible
that Mr. Cleveland will recommend
such action in his message to congress

chief things to be done by the next
congress are a complete revision of the
tariff and the repeal of the federal
election laws.
Inmiig ting Rosas Pension Claims.
It is stated at the pension office that

regular or fraudulent. The pension
office officials are searching the files
for claims filed by Drewry, which
have been allowed, ana so far 166 have
been found and forwarded to the ex
aminer at Norfolk. No computation
of the amounts paid on these claims
has been made, but as all of them were
filed under the act of June 27, 1890,
which allows sl2 per month as the
maximnm rate, it is probable that the
average will fall below S2OO eah.
Drewry is now serving a one year term
in jail for fraudulent transactions in
pension cases.

CHINA MAY RESIST
The Enforcement of the Exclusion Act
by Retaliatory Measures.
A Washington special of Tuesday
says that the outlook for a war with
China is noxv regarded in naval circles
as not improbable. It is believed that
the empire will resent the conclusion
reached by the supreme court, and
will issue a decree enforcing strict
rules against the entry of any more
Americans into China, and probably
ordering the removal of our mission
aries out of its territory under pain
of forcible deportation. Meanwhile
there is danger of insurrection
of Chinese against the white immi
grants, which the imperial authorities
will be unable to check. These, taken
together with the outbreaks which the
attempt to enforce the Geary law on
our west coast will bring about, it is
thought will put the two nations on
such a footing as to make war inevita
ble. The decision is a great blow to
the Chinese legation here where it has
been hoped down to the last moment
that the act would he declared uncon
stitutional.
AUSTRALIAN BANKS COLLAPSE.
Two Concerns Go Down With Heavy
Liabilities.
The Bank of North Queensland, lim
ited, has suspended. The Queensland
National bank has also suspended.
Private cable dispatches received at
Brisbane, Monday, were to the effect
that the Commercial Banking Com

pended. For this and other reasons
uneasiness on the London stock ex
change is increasing. The Commercial

of the oldest banking establishments
in the antipodes, having been estab
lished iu 1834 and incorporated in 1848.
The capital is 600,000 pounds, and re

How lo Save Doctor’s Bills.
Never go to bed with cold or damp
feet.
Never lean with the back upon any
thing that is cold.
Never begin a journey until the
breakfast has been eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then
immediately go out in the cold.
After exercise of any kind never ride
in an open carriage or near the window
of a car for a moment; it is dangerous
to health and even life.
Never omit regular bathing, for un
less the skin is in good condition the
cold will close the pores and favor con
gestion or other diseases.
Never 6tand still in cold weather, es
pecially after having taken a slight de
gree of exercise, and always avoid
standing on ice or snow where the per
son is exposed to the wind.
When going from a warm atmos
phere into a colder one, always keep
the mouth closed, so that the air may
be warmed by its passage through the
nose ere it reaches the lungs.
Keep the back, especially between
the shoulders, well covered; also the
chest well protected. In sleeping in a
cold room, establish the habit of
breathing through the nose, and never
with the mouth open.
Just L kc a Man.
Mrs. Stocks —“If we move into that
cheap house, we’ll lose caste.”
Mr. Stocks—Don’t care if we do ; it’s
the best we can afford without running
hopelessly into debt, and, besides it is
a comfortable place anyhow. ”
Mrs. Stocks—“ Huh! Just like a
man. Only so you can be comforta
ble, and pay every little bill as quick
as it comes in, you don’t care what the
world thinks.” —New York Weekly
Housekeepers
Should Remember.
The Government Chemists, after having analyzed
all the principal brands of baking powder in the
market, in their reports placed the “Royal” at the
head of the list for strength, purity and wholesome
ness; and thousands of tests all over the country
have further demonstrated the fact that its qualities
are, in every respect, unrivaled.
Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift or prize,
or at a lower price than the Royal, as they invariably
contain alum, lime or sulphuric acid, and render the
food unwholesome.
“German
Syrup”
lam a farmer at Edom, Texas. I
have used German Syrup for six
years successfully for Sore Throat,
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Pains iu
Chest and Lungs and Spitting-up of
Blood. I have tried many kinds of
Cough Syrups in my time, but let
me say to anyone wanting such a
medicine—German Syrup is the best.
We are subject to so many sudden
changes from cold to hot, damp
weather here, but in families where
German Syrup is used there is little
trouble from colds. John F.Joues.®
the best
flragagai Is the best Blood Medicine, because
it assists nature to throw off the im
purities of the blood, and at the same
time tones up the entire organism. This is just
contrary to tne effect of the various potash, mer
cury, sarsaparilla mixtures, which bottle up the
impurities in the system, thus producing much
sickness and suffering. Therefore, for a
BLOOD MEDICINE
you cannot do better than take S. S. S.
“Asa physician, I have prescribed and used
S. S. S. in my practice as a tonic, and for blood
troubles, and have been very successful. I never
used a remedy which gave Such general satisfac
tion to myself and patients.
