ONT., April 18, 1903 —I think it is only right that I should tell you what a wonderful effect Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy has produced. The day before Raster I was so distressed with a cold and cough that I did not think to be able fe Uke any duties the next day, as my voice was almost choked by the cough. The same day I received an order from you for a bottle of your Cough Remedy. I at once procured a sample bottle, ind took about three doses of the medicine. To my great relief the cough and cold had completely dis appeared and I was able to preach thiee times on Easter Day. I know that this rapid and effective cure was due to your Cough Rem edy. I make this testimonial with out solicitation, being thankful to have found such a Godsent remedy. Respectfully yours, E. A. LANGPKUJT, M. A., Rector of St. Luke's Church. To Chamberlain Medicine Co. This remedy is for sale by S. R. Biggs. WASHINGTON LETTER. BY CBAS. A. EI WARDS. December 7,' 190 J. There is going to be ■ whole lot of fun here on or about the 11 th and 1 th of t>e present month when the Republican National Committee meets for the purpos of aelet ting the time and place for the holding of the next KepuMicai National Convention. 1 here is go ■ng to be an attempt made at t' at meeting to fire the Hon. Perry S Health. . ecretay ol the Nation I Committee. The late report ol lion joe Bristow, Fou'th As i taut Postniastt-r Ceneral. has thrown the harpoon into Mr. Heath with •II t K e energy of a man who wast ed to get even foi some things anil fiat report has stirred up the Pre* - dent to t e sticking stage, and he says that Mr. Heath must go. Senator Han a, the Chairman of the Committee, is t>>e friend of H.' th, and he ia Ins ntciit ihat Mr Heath must not be disturbed. h s represents an issue at once between the Preside. >t and the Senator from Ohio, who ia the real leader of the republican party. The Presi ei>t • irgeta t at he did not make u« tht pres nt National Commit e of the lep blacan | arty, which wn Ids th. influence and consoles things until ts success >t i» elected at the next national republican con ention but that it was made up by MiKinley and Hauna. and therefore is under U»e control uf Henna. Thia be ag the case thecommitte will accept the dictum of Hauna and refuse to ••fire" Heath Ihat wi Idi credit Rooaavdt and at the same time |4 ce the republican party in the at itnde of workin • in the inteiest of a man who praiUcally l a» been Imlirtrd for but wiling in the Poat Ottice De|*rtaseni There is going ■o be a warm time aud much re pul»l can dirty linen will be washed f r the delectation of the general •üblic It will bv a straight fight between Hanna and Roosevelt and Ha ua i« going to win Watch the game * * * The letter of Grover Cleveland (twoiul ly declining to be consid ered aa a candidate far the Prwd iiimTi'idiVlA/ifr', cratic ticket is causing much com ment here, and the attempt of the people who were touting Cleveland to make Judge Parker, of New York, the rcsidnsry legatee of Cleveland has had exactly the op posite effect on the leaders of tha J democratic party here, and they expected and hoped it would. It has shown up those people aa op posed to the true principles of the party. As was staled in this cor respondence some months ago, the attempt to tout Cleveland was simply an tlf rt on the part of the reorganizing element of the party in ihe East to feel the pulse of the people. They had no idea that Mr. Cleveland would stand for re nomination, but they wanted to see hJNir far the people would stand for the idea. After thay had worked it as far aa they desired, they would bring out the real man be j hind the movement, a man who M entirely satisfactory to Wall Street iut rests. It seems that Judge Parker is the man. The democratic leaders in Congress are laughing at the efforts of these people to stampede the democrat c party to a man who is the choice of the men who manipulate stocks and bonds and all the new-fangled get rich* quick games that originnte in the Maelstrom of Money. They say lhat if that is the ganu cf those people they will have none if Judge Parker in theirs 1 hey see no difference in a r> publican snd a man who is acceptable to the Wall -'treet (jang in the Democratic party. They fay we may as well have a republican in the White House as a man who has to go to Ihe Wall Street interests and get the money with nhich to elect him, and who must take ante-elettion promises to get it In consequence of this feeling the stock of the H» « William Randolph Hearst aa the candidate of the democracy in the next contest, the only man »o far mentioned for the nomination wl o is not dominated by that gang of commercial pirates, who hate him cordially, has gone up aeveral per ceptible pointa. * * • The Pansma deal is atlll a topic, of political discussion herr, and the democrats are as determined a* ever, to make it an issue in the next campaign. If they do they will show up one of the most Mupeiv dous outrages ever attempted by this government. From the l oks of things this will be supplemented by another attempt on the pat t of this republican administration to rab San Domingo. 'I he recent troubles down there have mad> things ripe for the d> al that a few men in this country have been try ing for years to | ull off It is not generally known but nev 'theles* it is the tiuth, that the bonds o' an Doming** the negro republic in the extent of hundr d* of th • s > ds of d I aia ara owned in IhN country and are controlled by Sena tor Matt Quay, of Pennsylvania, and his co-partners in the graf inp game. If this government ta es over the island of San Don ingo 'hose which coat the pur chasers shout twenty five cents 01 the dollar, will be worth par I hey, therefore, will make some three h ndred per cent profit The game is worth t>e ca. die. Look out for developments in San Do mingo. » . » The Sugar Trust is again in full control of Congress, and ia corrupt ing t e legislation now as frequent ly in the paat. It dictates every more made by the republicans in Congress. The people do not know it but behind tha innocent proposition to take a vote in th Senate on the Cuban Reciprocity bill. ataJks the Sugar Trust The vote on this bill will oc ur m the St ate, under the agree***!, on December itth. The hill and treaty cannot possibly take effect before ihe a ilk ray of Deceu.ber, and nrobably not until man* days thereafter. Observe uow the reas ons «h> the senate, taking its cue ftotn the Sugar Trust, is proceeding so leisurly. The Sugar Trust agents are now in Cuba and have been for the paat two w« eks en gaged in the pur. haae of all the cane eugar. ground and manufactured, not already owued by the trust, with the view of bringing this sugar into the United states under the reduced tanH which will be only ei|(hty per ctnt of the Dingley law rates. That sngur they are pur chasing from the manufacturer* and growdki at the market price obtaining when, it could be imported toto thia Country only [rale of the Dlngley lav. Ia this way the Si gar Trust, which con trols only about two-thirds of the ■agar production of Cuba, will be enabled to psrcbaae one third af the sugar product of a rate that vill pre it s profit of twenty per cent more thaa if the bin should be passed at thft time. That ia the ■reason for the postponement of the passage of the bill. This means Shout f »,000,000 in the pockets of the Sugar Trust and a gala to all the Senators who are in on the deal, and who are aov engaged in buy ing sugar stock which has been go ing up steadily sin e the postpone ment of the vote on the bill. Ia this not a disgrace ? And this time the White House participates ia the diagrace, for, while the President most strenuously insisted on the pqpsage of this legislation, he has oeter eren suggested the removal of Ike differential duty on refined supr, How do the people like the picture t Legal Advertisements.

When the cake ip a fajjpre it may ha bees use, firstly, the -fruit has sank to the bottom of the cake. If sot the cake was badly mixed, or it was moved in the oven before it was set, or the oven door was heav ily banged; hence the cake fell, and Ct wss the fall thereof, because, Humpty Dumpty, it cannot be restored to its former estate. Secondly, the cake may be a fail are because it has heavy, dull col ored streaks through it. If tha streaks run through the center only the cake is not sufficiently baked; U all through the cake the butter and sugar are not creamy enough or else the butter is not rubbed in thor oughly. There is no remedy. Thirdly, the cake may have risen splendidly at first, then have stink in, with perhaps a hole in the middle. Ihe reason for this there was too much baking powder, or the cake was moTed in the oVen, or the oven door was banged before the cake was set. Fourthly, the cake may be badly burned beneath. The reason for this is that tbe bottom heat in tbe oven waa too fierce. To correct thia evil stand the cake tin in a baking tin containing about one and a half inches of common salt or sand. This acts as a nonconductor of heat. Laundry Pointers. Clothe* cannot be rinsed too much. The little spots of iron rust which appear in most mysterious place*—in gathers, under ruffles, trimming, etc.—are due to the soap not having been rinsed out, and it united with tho bluing and formed an iron compound. Rust often romes from the boiler, but one can always tell when such is the caw. The quaation of whether clothca ahould be soaked overnight or only ■ short time is a much discussed question; but, considering the ac tion of soaking to be-the removal of dirt, to lessen the wear on clothea, soaking overnight is too long. The first action of soap, which la alka line, is to soften airt and make it solublo. If the clothes soak too long other compounds are formed much more difficult to remove. One cannot always see them, but they are there. The use of chemicals in the laun dry, unless properly handled, should not be allowed. The strong washing powders and fluids, if used in mod eration, will not injure the clothea. Tha chemicals in use are ammonia, borax, chloride of lime. All chem icals should be dissolved before tha clothing is put in the tubs. These chemicals rot the goods, and they soon fall to pieces. Cleaning Hairbrushes. To wash hairbrushes dissolve a couple of tablespoonfuls of borax in a little boiling water and add to it a sufliciency of cold water in a shallow vessel, deep enough only to cover tho bristles. In this dab tha brush up and down till clean, rinse with clcsr water and put in the air to dry. Remember (n washing brushes that hot water must not be used, aud they roust not be placed ncur a (ire or in the sun to dry. Carelessness in these points-will re mit in the bristles losing their stiff ness and becoming discolored. A Msdlclns Closst. The up to date architect when planning a bath room is almost sura to make room for a medicine closet. It is high enough to be out of reach of childish hands, but low enough to be accessible to the busy house wife. In these days of telephones tha medicine closet may seem a super fluity, but experience teaches every mother that a judicious use of ita contents may obviate too frequent calls for the doctor and furnish the ounce of prevention which ia worth a pound of cure. Useful to Knew. A cup of milk added to tha water with * hich an oilcloth or oiled floor is to be washed gives it a luster lika hew. The application of a bit of soap an the |H>mt of a lead pencil to a ereuky hinge will cure its stiffneaa and silence ita complaints. Ink stains may tie removed from linen by putting melted tallow on tha mark and then washing tha ar ticle. The ink and grease will eoat out together. S&cstSrS I I fj ANNOUNCEMENT* MizeH'a; Brown Go.
