One and a half ounces of white wax, four ounces of sweat almond oil, six drams of rosewater, and .live drops of oil of rose. Melt wax and oil of almond in a bowl; then add roue water and stir well with a wooden spoon. The longer it is stirred the whiter it will get and the more creamy. Finally add

While the larch in this country

hardly fulfills the picture given of the old tree, it is very beautiful, especially when young and full of vigor. Iam

sometimes afraid that we gardeners waste modi of our time under glass

I passed part of my youth in the shade

that the ancients worshiped trees.

Two Views or the Presidency. Mr. Cleveland seems to indorse fttllv tbe

opinion of Postnuvter General Vilas that he holds in "his norsonal care and keening

tbe sovereignty and dignity of 6o,0iK),0uu

people a responsibility so great inai any

man inigQfi wen uieuu w assume t iwr second turn. In his letter to the Mavor of St. Louis Mr. Cleveland spoke of him-elf

as "the bearer ol tue people s sovereignty.

and at Atlanta, just before starting on the return trip to Washington, he declared he Would remember his reception ''as ah evidence of tbe love of the people for the office which represents their sovereignty."

Apparciily Mr. Cleveland has nt doubt

that while swm.ins around the circle ho

has carried the fcovereignty of the naliun

with him and put it on exhibition at the various sioppmg-plac 8. A Chief Magistrate who, instead of considering himself a pubUo 1-ervai.t charged with the duty of ad

ministering the uff rs of the Kxccu ive Denartment in accordance with the laws as

provided by Congress and interpreted by the Supreme Court, imagines t at he is the

hue. Lincoln's opinion of the Presidency :

was Bon.ewh.it m contra t with that of Mr.

Cleveland. "I can't run this otl.ee on the

theory that I am the biggest man in the

country and every m m mast support me," said Lincoln. Although holding office in a time of War, and wielding powers such as no other Chief Magistrate ever exerted in this country, the rail splitter President never thought himself invested With the

mighty attributes of sovereigi ty. Me was omy "running an office,' and he plainly declared that hj was not permitted to run it according to his owu des res, muca less on ihe theory that he w.is "the big; est man in the country.1' In fact, he often said that he "huun t much influence wi h the administration. " Mr. Lincoln understood

and appreciated the nature and true dig

nity ot tbe rres oential omco as well as

any man who ever tilled that I ign station, but the idea of clothing himself in sov

ereignty and beoondug "the biggest man in the country" only appealed to his sense

or numor. ne Knew that tne i-resiaeni

was simply a high public servant charged with cerain fixed duties and the ad-

minisiration of the laws provided by Congress, whether he liked them or not. True,

shortly alter tne adoption oz tne constitution, it was piopo-edto g-ve the Chief Mag

istral a some of tne attributes of roya.ty ana

Mjle him "His Highness tbe President of it e United States and Protector of Their

Liberties:" I at it was Anally determined

that the people should take caie of their liberties and sovereignty.ond that the official Known simply as "the President" should be burdened only with the ordinary duties of a

sigh administrative office, togetner wnn limited veto and pardoning powers. If

joveieignty inheres in any department of he Government, Congress and the Supreme Court ought to have some share, since, ac-

ordlng to every theory, they are co-ordi

nate in dignity with the Executive branch.

Perhaps, however, it would be too muoh of a socialistic division to make all the Congressmen, Senators, and Judges "bearers of sovereignty' and custodians of supreme national dienitv.

Sovereignty, as defined by all recognized

writers, is a power wnicn acsnowieages no

superior ana no authority but its own win.

Necessarily such a power can rest only with

the people, and not with the Government

or anv of its ofiiceis. Ihe power of tbe

Government and of all publio offi ers is

carefully limited by the laws and the Con

stitntion. It must therefore appear strange

that the bolder of an administrative office

can esteem himself the bearer or repre

sentative of sovereignty. The error is all

the more conspicuous in Mr. Cleveland, since before his election be seemed to en

tertain the Lincoln view of the Chief Mag

istracy, and declar. d the duties of the post

esfienii&Mj executive, xiis jpericui'i3 ua President should have strengthened that

correct opinion. In the recent matter of

the rebel llags he learned, under circumstances of great humiliation, that as President be could not return war trophies to h.s Southern friends, simply because Cou-

ress bad not given mm permission so to o. and his powers were only executive.

Nevertheless Mr. Cleveland's conceptions of the Pr- sidential office have undergone a curious change during b s occupancy of the While Howie. Wearing a No. 19 collar and a No. 5 bat, surrounded by syco

phantic admirers, lauded by a servile mugwump pres-, and dominating absolutely an obsequious Cabinet, Mr. Cleveland, not content with the performance of duties

essentially executive, has used to great

excess the extra-executive rowers of his

office, csperial'y that of the veto, and has at last come to consider himself the em-, bodimant of soverei,5uty itself. Chicago Tribune.

A Frauk Admission.

Tbe Democrats of the South, who have

made a practice for years of suppressing

tbe votes of colored men and have tried to quiet all protest from tho North by sneers at the bloody shirt, are getting more open and defiant in their lawless course. Gov.

!! Enei v. of Louisiana, deolared last weeK

in a campaign speech that the maintenance

of ti e supremacy ot tne wniie race in iniu

State was impossible unless ooiorea citi

zens were excluded from tne pons ana denied their civil and political rights. He

admitted nubhcly what me Democratic par

ty has been priv tely preaching for years.

He makes no concealment or me plan oy which tho Democratic party has ru'ed in

the South and e acted a Democratic Presi

dent. It is surprising that, with such frank admissions of Democratic crimes against the bal'ot, some people of the North shou'd persist in avoiding discussion of tbe purity

ol toe us tot and do mutniutuyu iroui ue-

strlfo. There is no doubt that the Democratic party holds its power in t late and national affairs by its course of iioerciou; fraud, and defiance of tho law. Stidh admissions' it's this by a Democratic Governor are not necessary to enlighten tho public mind. There is a duty wh ch deiolves upon every cili-7-eu, in demanding for the colored men ibo right to oust a tree 1 allot and have it fairly counted. It is a duty which the ltepublican party must nssume, aud never lay down until the que-liou of the suppressed suffiage of the South hi settled andsett'ud right. Mr. Cle.eland pleases the Southern ear by prating about the era of reconciliation, and deniundin a cessation of sectional b tterness aud stri o. There is ho doubt that tho Sou h is perfectly contented to have a rest of this kind, so Jo g as it cntt continue in its fraudulent and lawless treatment of Southern suffrage. So long as the vote Of one Southerner is a lowed to offset the vote of three Northern men. the South is qu to willing to cry peace and ask nolhin : belt r than to be let alone. But Mr. Cleveland will learn in due tim tuat there con be no peace that compromises with evil or that permits great wrongs to go unrghted. And until every citizen of this land shall be allowed to cast his vote and have it honest'y counted, there will be an invconci able antagonism, whether it be oetwceu sections or between parties, which can not

A Dishonest tand Policy. The administration has a great deal to

say about the great re. or in it is accomplishing in the restoration of publio lands that have been lofoited by eorporaton greed or individual dishonesty. With a great flourish ot trump ts tbe Comniisg oner Of the Laud Office has pretended to have restored to the publ c domain m 1-

lions upon millions ol: acies of land that had beefl retained dishonestly undi r Republican administr itiort-i. Following his lead all tho Democratic papers have caught up the cry and proclaim that the crowning glory of the admitistiation is its land policy; It Is not suprising therefore that Democratic Conventions have been led into gross aud ridiculous errors by such misstate m nts. Tbe Pennsylvania Democratic Convention declared that over two hundred million acres of the public domain bad been rescued and returned to the people by the present administration, 'there is no foundation whatever in the facts to Eustaiu such remarkable assumptions. Indeed the tery reports of the Gensral Loud Office for the last two years fail to shdir that the public domain has been increased for the aotual settlers by the return of a thousand acres of land that wa not in the direct line of tbe policy ad pted by the last Itepublicftu Secretary of the Interior and his predecessors. All that has been done in the way of reclaiming forfeited laud grants Was' d continuation of the liepublican policy wh ch the present administration found in practice when it went into office. It has originated no pol cy in this respect and secured to the publi domain &o land Which would not nave been' secured had there been no change of admin istration and had the s ime poli-y of Hepublican officials been maintained. So all this great excitement and blow about the rescue of millions of acres of land is dishonest from the beginning. The administration deserves no credit other than for having carried out the line of publ.o policy marked out by its Republican predecessors. On the contrary, ii doesdessr.ecr.ticism and censure for its failure to do what the increased needs of the public serv ce imperatively require and whrtt it fcwi repeatedly promised it would do. Tidefe have been organized in the past three years cattle compani s that have usurped tux public domain and are now illeg Hy occupying large portions tff it, unhindered by t. e General Government. There was fit one time a bluster of protest and a brief dis

From the Tyrol, from Switzerland, from Germany, or from Brittany, says the Gentleman's Magazine, come we.lascertained accounts of tbe popular belief in certain wild spirits of the wood, who are painted in all the most frightful shapes the imagination can suggest and are characterized by their delight in every possible form of malev lence. They kidnap and devour children, liewitch the cattle, and lead men to lose their way in the forest. They can assume any size, from the most diminutive to the most gigantic; nor is any form of bird or beast an impossible impersonation of them. The Skongman, the forest spirit of Sweden, is like a man, but tall as the highest tree; he

decoys men into tbe wood, and, when

they have hopelessly lost their way and

begin to weep lor fear, leaves them with mock ng lau,s liter. The concep

tion is well-nigh identical with that found among the natives of the forests of Brazil, showing with what uniform

ity similar conditions produce similar

effects on tne nunian unit, nut tne Knssian spirits Ljesohi (from a Polish word for wood) are even more signiti cant; for not only are the usual di bolioil attributes assigned to them, such as the leading of men astray or the sending to them of sickness, but also the conventional diabolical features. Their bodies are after the human pattern, but they have the ears and horns of goats, their feet are cloven, and tbeir lingers end in claws. Tho Hussian wood spirit is in fsct. the devil of media va imagination, and nothing else

a faot which strongly supports tha

inference that it is from the wood and

from the wind rustling over tbe tree

tons that tbe idea ot tbe supernatural

agencv of devils fi rst took possession of the imagination of mankind. Tt is in no wav incon-istent with this

theory that besides de.ils of tho forest there are those of the air or the water. The conception is one which would hm mat with no barrier to the exten

sion of its dominions, and the devil of the tree or forest would from tha first be closely associated with, if at all dist nguished from, the spirit that moved in .h trK and was powerful enough

to overturn them. In this way tbe wild

Why She Dng Her nmbaud Up. There is a little lady on the Back Bay who was a widow only a few yess ago, but who now manages with conueamate grace one of tbe finest establishments in the city, and the richest sort of a devotsd husband. For some time she bestowed her affections upon her first husband, who died two years after marriage. She purchased a magnificent lot in the most arhtpcratio cemetery of the neighborhood, and erected a marblo monument.

burial accessories, and when tue mils came in the widow found herself sorely

presse l to mert them, uut sue paiu them all without regret Finding herself in straightened circumstances, however, this enterprising woman cast about in her mind how to raise more money. She fina'ly decided to have the body of her husband removed to a small cemetery and sell her lot and the costly monument.
