l'Kl DAY, NOV KM HER -J. 1894.

THKKK novel- was a better time to floe from the Democratic Sodom than just now.

TIIK Democrats [are out now night ami day whooping it up for ten cent wooi and fortv cent wheat.

Now is the time for the Republican party to (rather in its votes. Uet nothing be left for Democratic gleauers.

Is any man in this country better oil tluiu he was two years ago when the Democratic party took possession of the government'.1

LOOK out for campaign roorbacks. They will be sprung ou the eve of the election as big as elephants and as the Democratic party.

THK farmers of 'Montgomery county have beeu busy hunting for buyers of wool to pay the advance in the price that Hrookshire said would take place.

KKITHI.ICANS are standing together this year and with them are many who hitherto voted the Democratic ticket. Democrats are Republicans this year in self defense.

DKMIK'KATIC orators and newspapers are mum this year about the "workingman's dinner pail.'' The workingmen are more concerned about the 'dinner than about the pail.

THK way of the eagle in the air or the serpent ou a rook, is not half so hard to find out as the way of a Democratic Congressman who votes for •free trade and protection all in one ilav.

A VOTE for Hrookshire is a vote to keep up the Democratic wrangle in Congress. A vote for l-'aris is a vote for peace anil a revival of business, plenty of employment, and better wages.

THK paper which publishes bad stories relative to opposition candidates just before election, is unworthy of belief. One paper in this city is indulging in this black leg practice, but fortunately it has no influence.

"Ik you pass this measure." said Hill in the Senate one day last summer, speaking of the pending tariff bill, "the States of New ork. New .Jersey and lonneticnt will be lost to the Democratic party": and it won't be long now until he an say. "I told you so."

THK Republican party has always been for law and order, and I iov, Matthews, in his speeches over the State, has not forgotten to thank it fur its united support of his policy in dealing -with law breakers. While many of his own party papers turned the cold shoulder to him there never was a breath of unfriendly criticism of his. course. from any Republican .••source.

\YK are buying more imports from Europe than we were a few years ago. but the Democratic promise that "the more we buy abioad the more we shall sell abroad" is proving a lie. like all the rest of the free trade theories. Our exports are less, rather than greater. •In September, la'.i.'l, we sold T'-J million dollars' worth of exports: this September we sold but .V.i millions. And worse than that, the prices of our great, export staples—grain and cotton—are less than they were a year ago. Our farmers and planters are the sufferers

The sum and substance of almost every Democratic speech made in Montgomery county this year has been to the effect that the present Dt mocratic administration has beeu a botch of everything it has undertaken, and put the conntry in a worse condition in every way than it was when Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated. Rut. it is agreed, they will do better if they are given another chance and this is the only plea offered for the support of a voter What hope have we that they will do any better if they are given another chance'.' Will not the same old quarrel and wrangle go on. just as it has'.' What evidence have we that Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Hill will become reconciled and pull together'.'

Have we any assurance that Mr. liorinan, the Protectionist, will agree with Mr. Voorhees, the free-trader'.' The differences between the various sorts of Democrats are just as radical as the differences between Democrats and Republicans. The fact is. it is now and forever will be impossible for the Democrats to agree among themselves upon a policy of any kind, and so long as they are in power every business interest must suffer from their family broils and wrangles in Congress. On the other hand, the Republican party stands united, and has so stood from the National Convention of I SCO to the present day. All it asks is a chance, not to reform but to do just about as it has been doing for thirty years. A chance to build up new industries—a chance to give employment to labor—a chance to bring back the prosperity that has been dissipated by the present administration.

BAFFLES COUNTERFEITERS.

The Unlucky Opal tti« Imltatlfl Skill of the Moderns. One kind of opal, the hvdropune of exico. loses its beauty and becomes dull and colorless when exposed to water. The same stone, says the Westminister Review, it is said, can be restored to its color and beauty by subjecting it to a certain degree of heat. A writer on the subject says that the opal is always much more brilliant on a warm day, and that a sharp dealer will always hold one in his hand a short time before showing it to a purchaser. In ancient times the opal was most successfully imitated by a glass paste, which could only be distinguished from the real gem by the most careful experts. The art has been entirely lost, for the best counterfeiters fail to produce a stone that in the least Unfiles the connoisseur. The finest opal of modern times, says King, was one which belonged to Empress Josephine, and which was called the "Rurning of Troy." because of the innumerable rod flames blazing upon its surface, while the reverse was perfectly opaque. In the troublous times that followed the Napoleonic period the gem was tost sight of, and there is left no trace of it. There are two wonderful opals among the French crown jewels, one of which is set iu the clasp of the imperial cloak. Empress Eugenie is Said to have a most superstitious dread of them and would not wear an opal for any persuasion. Queen Victoria does not share this feeling with her. She. on the contrary, admires the gem very much, and has given to each of her daughters, on their marriage day, various pieces of jewelry set with the iridescent gem. There are many varieties of opals, coining from almost as many quarters of the globe. The opal found in Hungary was thought to be harder and more durable than those found in Mexico and South America, but since the better development of the mines in those places stones have been found quite the equal of Hungarian gems.

SALT WATER IN CEMENT.

Th« ftnlphat«» of the Sea Arc Very itruellve. In the opinion of Dr. Michaelis. of IJerlin. the greatest enemies to the permanency of the 1'ortland cement used in marine structures are the sulphates contained in sea water. If there is any great quantity of alumina and ferric oxide in the cement the structure breaks up sooner than otherwise. This is accounted for by the fact that the sulphate forms, with the aluminate and ferrate of lime, a number of crystalline compounds, such as bassic sulphate of lime, alumino-sulphate and ferro-sul-phate of lime. These compounds take up a large quantity of water of crystallization. so that the total volume is much increased. Hence the weakness and disintegration of the cement structure. Dr. Michaelis considers that the separation of hydrate of magnesia is quite innocuous, for it is only displace'! from its solution in the form of a llocculont, slimy hydrate, which, if anything, is useful in stopping up the pores. His general recommendation to users of concrete for marine work is to choose a cement rich in silica and as poor as possible in alumina and ferric oxide, and to envelop the structure with an impenetrable mixture composed of one part of cement with two to two and one-half parts of sand of mixed grain, of which at least one-third should lie very line sand, and to this the requisite amount of ballast should be added.

CASTE FOLLOWS THE NOSE.

Anthropologist* Say the Nose T«'ll« th« Calture of Man. Anthropologj', said Sir William Flower, is becoming of the highest importance in polities. If we take a series of castes in Hengal. liehar or the northwestern provinces and arrange them in the order of the average nasal index, so that the caste with the finest nose shall be at the top, and that with the coarsest at the bottom of the list, it will be found that this order substantially corresponds with the accepted order of social precedence.

The casteless tribes who have not yet entered the Hrahmanical system occupy the lowest place in both series.

The fisher castes are a trilie higher in the scale: the pastoral, the cultivating, and a group of cognate castes—from whose hands a Hrahman may take water—follow in due order: and

FOR 2©

from

them we pass to the trading and tile laiidholding- classes and the upper crust of Hindu society.

Thus it is scarcely a paradox to lay down as a law of the caste organisation in Eastern India that a man's social status varies in inverse ratio to the width of his nose.

The Most Aucicnt .Sony-.

A topical song three thousand years old was sung in a comic opera lately produced in Australia by a traveling Chinese company. The history tf this venerable ballad is authenticated by the affirmation of the chief comedian of the troupe, who avers that the song has been sung on the Chinese stage, with the original words and music, since 1000 li. C. A Melbourne critic says the accompanying melody "consisted partly of a Chinese chopping wood, partly of another Celestial blowing a bull's horn with horrible intensity of effort, and partly of a curious stringed instrument, which makes a noise like an infant crying in the night."

lj»te Flowers.

With the turning of the leaves it is supposed the flowers disappear, but in northern New England, and over the line in Canada, the asters are never more gorgeous, the daisies bigger or the chamomile more abundant than just on the eve of frost time. In towns two or three hundred miles north of New York the short but warm summer seems to have itsfruitage after the equinox, and the parks and gardens in these towns are brilliant with marigolds, zinnias, asters, cosmas. and even sweet peas, long gone, by in these latitudes. Melons are in their prime in Maine when they are not on sale iu New York._

Covered with talk about the quality, lit, finish and general superiority of our line of these goods wouldn't convince a woman half so quick as it would to snuggle inside of one and walk around in front of a long mirror and see reflected the truth of every printed praise w? have showered upon them.

Get Inside

It seems scarcely necessary to say anything about our dress goods. You all know about us in that line. If you don't, ask your neighbor. She does. Our friends advertise us in this line and we are satisfied with their work, so what's the use saying more. We haven't the time nor space to mention all lines in our store, but beg to remind you it will pay you to come to us for your smallest purchasrs. It pays to trade at the "Big Store."

This is all we ask and we are confident of the

result. This i* all we ask and we feel we should be

ivored as much. Giw us your time and attention

and we will give yon good values for little money.
