THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL. WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAIICII 11, 1891-TWELVE FAtfES.

MIGHTY GOOD RIDDANCE

To n Very Bad Lot of Political Rubbish Is the Finnl Adjournment of Congress. Closing Hours Aro Very Tome nnd Uninteresting. Reed Gets Thnnks Only from His Party Friends. Great Crowd Watch the Throe of Dtuili. Wammvc.tos, March 4. The -1th of March broko upon tho capitul in a broad benm of sunlight tli.it II allied a welcome upon the bronze llirureot Liberty and then crept rapidly down tin; while rUirfjcn of the t:reat dome, peeping into the windows an.! l'urhtlnj; up the dark corners, dimming the flickering pis jes, and cnnttcririg even tho wliite th.-ctric glare. Inp-ido the great building tho sleepy watchmen rubbed their eyes and s.it again upright At their poet. Tho corridors were a' most departed and the galleries of both houses were well-nigh tcnantlefs. The senate had taken a rece-. jast before d.iyh'ght until 0 o'clock, and tho windows of the north wing were thrown wide open to catch the keen, frosty morning breezes and accumulate a fre?h supply of oxygen for the tenators who were soon to reassemble. Tha ba'.l of the house was a scene of litter and confusion. Tho floor was covered with bits of paper, and cigar butts, and ashes and all of the debris that marks a prolonged session. There was an unusually large attendance of members, but it was also nn unusually disorderly assembly. The speaker appeared to be tho most serene person in the vast hall, saving certain representatives who ha! tilled themselves back in their ea-y chairs (in some instances with their heels neatly adjusted to tho elevation of the desk bt-fore them) or thrown themolvcs upon tho ample lounges anil wers more or le-s ndvamvd toward sound dumber. The sharp voice of the speaker rang out as clearly as ever in remonvt ranee with tho unruly members who nought to indu'ge in "horse play," and h:n iv ry gavel resounded tijM-n its wed-worn place on tlie desk as he railed for order. There was a great noire n the floor; the tumultuous roar of conversation, of demands for recognition and of adjurations to "tit down." But it meant nothing serious and it was a natter ot general remark among the older n ember-i that the Fifty-first congress wa dying in unwonted jc.ice; that no great maurts were hanging in the balance ami that party h-elin was not taking on the degree of acerbity usual in such times. As the day grew, siens of life ontaidethe biii of the houso inii t p ied. The re-tau-rar.is w-re nIed with early breakfa-ters, members wtio bad t-tlen off lor the night to their lom s bt pin to drop in 4uUtly and unostentatious v. Tho senate doors, vere reopened, the Linn? class of people who tok a niort.id interest in the con-sres-ional di-atli-strugle began to fiock to the cepiiol and to sent tin nieclves in the galleru-e, and the laft day of tho teiou was fairly begun. All the fore part of the morning there was an uninterrupted babel of shouts for recognition from anxious members of tho hou?e of represe datives who crowded around the open ppac in front of tho pak.er'j detk and rvnorted to loud calls, vociferous remurks and ail manner of devices t attract attention. The house was in a critical mood an I those members who were fortunste enough to catch the Heaker's eye, found they still had a hard road to travel to t lie presidential haven, lor it was not an ea-y matter to t-ieure too necessary two-thirds majority to have the rules Eu.wpend.-d and their bil a passed. Meanwhile the conferrees on the deficiency bid, which wa.s the only appropriation bill remaining lo be acted on, wer.i earnestly endeavoring to remove tho etumbiii g blocks iu the way of an agreement. The honso pradually filled as tho adjournment loomed ui less than three nours o!, w hile in the gah ri-s standing room had ceased to be availublu Hme time previously and throngs of people ladies possibly being in tho majority jam i e: the passage ways. The senate before 10 o'clock closed tho doors and went into executive session, tho crowds, thereby driven from the galleries, llockins to the house, only to be turnt-d back disappointed. When the tennis; doors were reopened the hundreds of people wa.tinir in the corridors erovdel and pushed and crush d in;-) the deries, sweeping Lefore them the employes who sought to rL'iiIate a-imi-sions. The republicans i:i th'i house nailed their colors to tho mast, determined to go out of power as aegrefsive, deii.int and lull of light as trVy ha I been at any timj during the session. They were loyal to the speaker and awaited the proper occasion to r.ianifeet the fact. It so n came. No de i ocrat having prepared the usual Tote of thanks to tue speaker, Mr. Mo Kinlev arose and ofTered a resolution thanking tha s: caker for tho sble and icaEartial mann. r in which he ai performed hia. duties Tho bouse, which had been in a buzz from the many-toned whimpers of the members on the floor, lapsed momentarily into something approaching quiet as the resolution was read, and Mr. Mills arose in I. is place. Tne predecessor of Mr. MrKin ey as chairman of the ways and means committee disappointed thoeo persons who hoped for a vigorous oratorical display, as he nu-rely demanded the call of the yeas and nays. The call was proceeded wdh amid great confusion, due to the fact that nearly every member had Bomo parting remarks for the neihlor whom he perhaps might never see r.gain. When the call was finished, a dozen members were on their feet all Ehouting at once, demanding to know if their names were recorded. Mr. Houk was the most vociferous of them all but was one of the last to be recognized. Messrs. Cannon and Peters, who had just entered with the agreement on the deficiency bill, were given unanimous consent to vole; but it was refused to a number of others, who yelled out, regrdle8 of rules, how they woud have toted bad they been present, Finally Mr. Houk wasg.venan opportunity to statu that he was paire.1, but on such a motion as this he would vote, notwithstanding th pair. When ut last the vote was announced the republicans rose in a mas, clapping hands ngor--oviely, waving papers and looks and making the air resound with cheers, the volume of sound being swelled by the applause in the galleries. The apttue was renewed more vigorous y than before as fcpeaker Reed entered the hall to relieve Mr. Burrows, who was temporarily in the chair. The democrats jeerel At the demonstra

tion, Mr. Bland and Mr. McClamrar shouting out retorts to the republican applause that wen; I ; In the confusion. Mr. Heed is nt the first sneaker who lias been refused a vote of thanks by the oipiiittoii part' at the c'r"' of i-onvreps. lie is the thirteenth on the list of those acaififct whom resentment has thus been liuHiifi-M'-d. Mr. t'a'inon came in for a wild ovation flshepres nted the ton fere net! rcjKjrt on t he 1 ..'.'icu'ncy bill "the la-t report ho won d have to make." His repub'Scuu col'.eatK s sprang to their feet at hi won!., thing him cbe-.-r after cle er and tn.-s'iig v hntever there was on their desks into t'o air in a tumuli nou cvclon'e omtncndation of Mr. C-mrion. Sir. Ilreekinridiw ( Ky.), ami 1 the upplmisetd his dennKT.itic fri-nd. iiift Je a graceful little ct'oeh eulogistic f tho treatment the minority had received fr.vi Mr. Cannon; but the republicans wer a little chary of joining in tho acclamations, being evidently of opinion Unit Mr. HrecKin ridge's remurks were rcllexiv y, in somo measure, indero catinn to tlie speaker. This conc luded the necessary work of congress and the remaining time was t hinly consumed in efforts to secure th I aaagj of local er privato bills. The roll ca Is on th s bills gave nu-mb'TH achaneo to aay g'Mubby. As the rays of tie noonday sun shone thrntigli the glnss roof of the 1ioum they illu ninatel a paperlittered and disor lered chamher, but also lighted a cheery crowd of men clasj ini! hiinds and exchanging the heartiest good W ishes. On the se nato fido the cena, wliilo of a somewhat nvre dignified nature than tho- in the hour-, were neveri fit less aniiiuti d .tn 1 jpirit. d. Lcn before tup frnvalof the president the corridors, waiting rooms and elevators were crowded with persons, many of tlum ladies, anxious to eecuro seats in tho ga!leiies to witness the expiration of tho Fi:ty-first congress. The wives and dauwhters of the Senators and representatives llcked around the reserved ga'lcriea ami pr -sonte I their c ir is of a mission, hut in many iesfwero doomed to disappointment, ns th--ae galleries are small and were soon tilled to their utmost capacity. When the doers of the senate were opened after an executive pension the crowds thut had been waiting in the corridors and lining the beautiful stairwv.ys iecame so great as entirely to obstruci the p;V"Sne of tho enroling clerka or messengers who hurriedly rushed from one house to the other bearing lately-passed measures. The f-cen s in the public galariea were counterparts of tho-e in the house. Spectators fihcil every availahlo seat and packe 1 the corridors, wai inu' a chanco to gain admission, or oven peep through the doorwHys, in their eagerness to catch a glimpse of the last f-cenes in the t liambo'. Tho gallery opposito VicePresident .Morton's chasr, reserved for the diplomatic corps waw well filled with members of l!io foreign legations and the only VKi-.uit eats in nnygitllery were those re-erved fr the president's fauiily. (iathered around the entrance to tho lobby that lends to the pretddent'H room were munv persons anxious to know tho fate of the bills of intercut to them. In the room were the president and his entire cabinet besides many senators and representatives w ho leit t'u-ir t oats long enough to see the president for a few minutes. The senate chamber presen'ed an unusually orderly appearance for the last day of a si-ssion, due to the short ret ess taken thi.s morning, which enabled the cleaners to put a little more tidy aspect to the desks covered n .th paper, books and documents. Svm after the hoiiae adjourned many cf its riemters drd ci over to the senate and tilled tlie larg, easy sofas arranged back of the senators' seats so that when the t-enate finally adjourned every scat on the fecuate floor was occupied. THE STENCH DEPARTS.

Closing Hours r fth Most Disgraceful House 1"vt Clctri. Th house cf representatives of the Fifty-first congress went out in a burst of song. Its ending was remarkable and unprecedented, and a scene eimilar to that which followed tho declaration of the speaker that the Fifty-firs-t con:rca was adjourned without oay, it is srife to ay, nevtr occurred before iu the congress of the United Staled. The vocalists of tha house on tho republ'can side of the chamber gathered ia a body near the front row of desks, headed by Mr. Coleman, Mr. Yardley, Mr, Stivers and Mr. Wade, nnd as soon as tho house was declared adjourned they started up tho stirring war tune, 'Marching, Through Georgia," which was take:t up by the great mass of republican representatives, who made tho hall ring, to the great delight and ediGcation of i he galleries packed full of people. A democratic chorus headed by llepre-stntative-fclect John J. O'Nedl (Mo.) re. toned wit n the Doxol.-gy," but their voices were soon diowned in the superior volume of sound from the press gallery cf the house, the reporters having taken up the hymn. Republicans and democrats a'ike reaped their sif.gin to listen to that of their miu time critic whose full, reeoinint chorus was very effective. Meters. Utirrows, Alien and Coleman, with Mr. Yanliev for precentor, struck up t ur Katiierlaria" as the closimr noUja of the "iHixolugy" died avay, and, the repnb'icans joining in very generally, the effect was line, ns was tlie ei nit inn of "John J'.rown's IVidy," which was taken up immediately. Tlie cccupanta of the press gallery for tlie last numbers on the program rendered "(Jood-by Congress, iiood-by. My Lover, Cood-by," and "He's a Jo ly root Feliow," and it was wi:h regret on the part of the immense throny on ihe floor an ) ia the galleries that the impromptu mus-cale came to an cud. TIk crowd then s.owly dispersed. The scenes in the house at tlie night session the last one of its existence were hardly up to the standard of the scenes which have made the Fifty fin-t congress memorable. Conference report after conference report was presented, but they created only a slight ripple on the smooth surface of the proceedings. Members i.tood around peeking the speaker's eye for tlie consideration of some pet measure, but few of them were gratified in the r wishes. Wh:lo the general tenor of conduct as good natured, the weariness of the representatives rendered some of them irritable, and many remarks were exchanged which could not parliam-nta-rily be incorporated in the record. In the main, however, the proceedings of the session wtrti chatacterized by a genial feeling among the members and by expressions of sincere regret that they were sx soou to part. An the hours d rutted away tho follow. ng business was transacted: Senate bi 1 wan pased to incorporate tne National conwrvatory of music of America. During the early morning the bill for the reorganization of the army was killed, the house refusing to order another conference. The last confrence report to le agreed to was that cn the general o"eticieney bill, the French spoliation claims and the payment to Facilic railroads being the troublteome points. In the last few hours some exciting scenes were enacted. Mr. Burrows having taken the chair, Mr. McKinley ofTered the following: That tht thanki of tMi hoaia srs present.! to ids Hon. Iboirai B. Rfd for the abls, Itnpartial aud diicnifitd maoner ia which h has presided orsr i'a deliberation a id performed the arduoui and import.: at dotlei of the chair. Mr. Mills demanded the yeas and nays.' Tho reBolutioa was azreei to yew, 152;

nays, llrt a strict party vMe. The republicans immediately burrt into a vol'.ev of cheers, which were only redoubled w hen Mr. Mils inquired whether this was a part of the funeral services. Speaker Iteed then aror e and S lid : After two Ion anJ stormy sesln, in eorre ruieH unparadrd In a bund red Tears, the koa of re)r-ntatiTfs of tha Kltj-first congress will soon ! wiPt omrlri. reeonl into tlitt idstory of the country, ami its works will soon follow iL What we hare Ann la in a larwe mesMuro poliiiuM1, Whatever is poli'.loat arouses the sternest, the most turbulent, tha u;ot mfr vng pnvsions d tne human race. I'oliticcl aoiion can never be justly vlrwvd from a lo-nr stamlpnlnt. Tuneanl distance arn neeU(l f r a ripe- judgment, and the verdict of historv ia the ordy verdict worth recording.

Having demonstrated to the people (hat thou who have been elected to do their w ill can Ho it, henceforth excuses will not be taken for nonperformance, and government by tho people will I e itroneer in the land. Toward those who have opposed what tha majority of tlie house has desired we cn have no unkindly or personal feeling. Whoever ofiers battle to old conviction and faiths rnut espeet battle, and die viiror of the reoiktance must always lenr some proportion to the viior of tlie cmet. To tueinhera on my left with whom I am politically associated I be? to tender tiiy most sincere and heartfelt arknowle lg'iteiitit. No man ever received more ungrudging and unflinching support or from a bau I of men more patriotic. I am proud to acknowledge !n all that has been done I have been but one in the multitude, and that the honors of the Fifty-first conwresa belonir to yon alone. I now deolare this Ik. use lo be adjourned without day. DEPARTED IN PEACE.

The Hlerpy Old iienat Was av Little Lnt MS l'oal. From o o'clock until shortly after 6 this morning Mr. Fasco occupied most of tho time of 'he senate in trying to get a vote for reconsideration of the copyright bill. He complained that notwithstanding his motion the bill had been burned to the vice-president and had received tho vicepresident's signature, and was now await- I ing the president's. That was an instunc, j in the opinion of Mr. Hale, how the bill h.el beeu "railroaded." The ide;i of the bill leiiig "railroaded" was angrily reP'jlled bv Mr. I'iatt. Very deep re- I gret wa.t cxpressetl by Mr. Hale that j the vice-president lud seen fit to sign the bill and it was only, be thought, becauso the vice-ptesldent did not kii-v.v of the gerii us eli'oit to have a full votn of the s.-nate on tho motion to reconsider. Ho hoped that the picsident wouid learn the facts in time to withho d his signature. Mr. Spooner had onlv voted under protest, he faid. And thero tho ir.atier st--od until tho hour of the recess came. At C:15 the scnato took a re- i cons until 9 a. ni. I The senate resumed it session at 9 o'clock with the vice president in tho chair. Too first matter of uny importance that came up nnt Mr. I'asco's motion, n. ado at the night scion, to recon-ider the vote agreeing to the conference r" port n the cnpyiight bill antl to recall the bill. Tho vote upon tho latter motion was yean, -1 ; nays, !". ' An executive seVston waa h.id. It was a quarter to 11 o'clock w hen the doors wen' reopened, and . to this there was a rush through the corridors up the wide marble tta.rcases and to the elevators, and in a fiw minutes tht spacious galleries were- filled with a panting, eager, noi-y, chattering crowd. Mr. Morgan applied lo ho excused from further servico on the committee on foreign relations. Mr. Ilo:ir objected, and suid that it would be wim great regret that the senate and the country would kco tho d't.tiTi?wihhed aenalor from A abama with biv from that important comiuutee. A like sentiment wa expressed by .Mcssr. Haitfom, Ctilom, Dawes. Spoonr cud (ioniKin, and on motion of the latter senator the senate declined to accedo to Mr. ; Morgan 'h request. j Mr. Ransom offered n resolution, which wj3 unanimously agreed to, tendering the thanks of cotigreso to the vice-president for Ihe cour:eous, dignified and ahle manner in which he h;s presided over tho deliberations of the senate. House bill for the protection of the lives of miners in territories was taken from the caiendar and passed. A resolution w as oiiered by Mr. Mitchell instructing the judiciary committee to inquire and report as to the duto when the laws rclatir.g to Chii.ese restriction expire; w hether inlSl2or 1S93; also when the Chinese exclusion act of 18SS shall expire, lie exfdained that the object was to have new egislation on the subject before existing laws ceased to operate. Tho resolution was agreed to. Me"sr. Blair, Evarts, Hampton, Ingalls, Payne ami Spocner of the senate, whoto terms expire at noon, were in the chamlwr to the last nnd gave no outward mnnifo.-l ition of concern or regret at leavinj: ihe old familiar hall, although now and asrain ; ono of their associates approached to aay i farewell. Within ten minutes of noon Mr. Allison I asked and obtained leave to have printed j in the Jiecord a summary of the appropriations for the sesdon. In the nstnre rf things, be said, that stnteraeul could not be tirepartd in a few days. When no other scrap of business remained to be transacted and when the dock had taken a three-minutes' step forward at a touch f the old wizard's wand ttie vice-president arosn and ruodo his fireweli speech. He said: ' 1 arn admonished by the dial that the life of the Fifty-brsi congresa is ended and that tha hour of separation and farewed has agaiu arrived. The record ia mill up aud baa gone into history. No one of us can be anmin-iful as we part of the taot that all are not with ui who answered to the first roll-call of this congrets. Three members of thia body, all taken from one side of tho chamber, have answered the last summons and eone out forever from the baunta of men. They were well worthy of the love we bore them, and will be cherished in the hearta of the people at able, honorab e and patrioiio publio servants. Without previoua eiperience aa a presiding officer, 1 came with distrust to the discharge of the duty imposed by th? constitution upon the vice-ereoideiit in relation to the senate, certain only of an unfaltering Durpo-eto do riuhtaod of the patitnee and forbearance of thia great body. I acknowledge with grateful sensibi'ity the courtesy and kindness which, even in critionl and complicated situations, the members of the senate have been accustomed to accord to m, and the honor eouierred by the resolution just adopted ia my absence from the chair. With the earnest hope that each member of this body may be blessed in every relation of life, 1 now declare thaithe constitutional period of the Fitly-first congresa baa been completed, and the senate stands adjourned without day. Th-re was a good deal of applause on the floor and the gaderies at tho conclusion of Mr. Morion's little speech at exactly thirteen minutes past '2. The next had hour or so there were n the floor and in the halls many hearty, and probably sincere, leave-takings of senators with each other and with senate officials.

'BAB" SCUUES MltS. STANLEY

AND PAYS HER A FE.W COMPLIMENTS. Wearing av Tawdy Clown to Sirs. Astor'i Jlouk-"T!i MnM Who Wi.it "A New SrhiM.l for Women Child's thtirlty-Co.sip. New Yokk, March 4. Special. Tho American woman Is dapproved of by Mrs. .Stanley. She thinks her manner is bud. her voice loud and her dressing vt ry objectionable. She has spent all her time looking for pretty women and em't find them. Kvidently she is not ns good an explorer as her husband. The insolence displayed by tliis I'nglifdi woman is almost mmnitiicnt. Wherever she has gone io ha. been well treated; great courtes.es liavu been ebown her, and iu slinot all imtances they have emanated from women, and this is her "Thank you." Will the American worm ever turn? Wnl it ever discover that it U cubing petrls befr awine w hen it goes in forexteiiding kindly grect'ngtto ptoplo who, having violent attacks of swollen heads, think they aro doing favors in accepting them? Mrs. Astor, whom nobody ever believod to be anything but a gentlewoman, with the finest feelings uiid tho greatest consideration for rich and poor alike,, was akcd to invite Mrs. Stanley to her house. She did so; and among the crowd of well, dressed American women, the lngliah one, who had au unkindly criticise I them, wore a crimson velvet gown so tawdry looking that one could not but associate it with thosa aflected by the queen of Denmark when Haml.-t is pl-tyed on the Bowery. It is said tin t as a nation we are too sensitive. Well, 1 don't know that we are, except w here our women are concer ned ; and we do object to having disagreeable comment made on their, especially by the stranger within our gates, to whom they have olTered the bread and sait of hospitality, and who have not known, or ele forgotten, that once you have broken the bread and tasted the salt vou respt ct the courtesy shown you and only eay words of kindne&a. We have nothing in thia country thnt nnawcr to the type represented bv Mrs. Stinley tho maid ho waits. he is very common in Knghtnd, whero husbands are by no nunns ea.y to get, and where women wait on far beyond tidrty, waitit.g for a man to take pity on them, and grow to have an expectant" look on their lacea, until you won d not be surprised to heitr them " cry, "Any man, Ixjrd I" That is why nothing good is found in tho American woman. She can always marry; ami when she don't she isn't on expectant old maid, with the stamp of prune and prisms set ahout her mouth and on her forehead in i.l-tenipi red line. I ut she is a woman who doesn't caro to marry, und cho-ses to work out her life alone. Tor my own part, I say, ''Hod bless her 1" for sh takes care of many another woman, looks after many another woman's eid.dren, and does good in many a household. After the criticisms ot Mrs. Stanley, however, it is to bo hoped that tho American woman w ill ch se I cr doors to Fo-cal!ed lions that are, after ah, cUt'Sti in their action. It's a pity, in the interest of society at larg, that the wife of the explorer docs not go to darkest Africa and learn- thero of the ac redness of hospita ity. Talking about women, there is fimething uoing to b done for them nb ut whicli a preHtdt al ought to l o said. There are schools that teacn women everyihing except how to be useful, and th it is something th.it Mr. Uorge W. Childs is udiig to remedy. In the great Drexel institute for women, which is now beingbuilt, they will be tau.1. t how to cook, bow to sew, bow to make bonnets, how to keep account", how to write fdiorthand,how to bo good typew nu rs, designers, and t be perle t in every ono of the arts that are within the reach of a woman's hands. A certificate of ihe perfection in any one branch will be ciiouitii to trdn them a position in any shop or manufactory, and the bonnet has to be as well made, tha steik as well rooked as the design is perfect or the account properly posted. The woman who grauuatcs as a cook will understand her buihei.. and the one who receives her diploma as a drve.MTiaker will know exactly w here pockets shcild be put, how buttons should be placed, and just how closely a collar should nt to look" we. I, and yet be comfortable. In't this the right soit of schoo.? And to show you how entirely Mr. Childs intend to carry out this idea, he has put h int-elf in communication with all the artisan schools in the word, nnd intends to uel tha best of everything from them ; to find out their mistakes, and as far us posiblo to avoid them. Only the other day, w hen a secretary was needed, and Mr. Childs was asked to recommend a young man, he said, '"No, let it be a woman; thin is for women, aud wherever women can honestly earn any of tlie money from it they shall ho'd the position," Now, that's what I call a good speech; and the school promises to be that hest of all lljiinrs a help to women w ho want ro make life better, truer, smt more abolutely honest, for the poor worker is as dishonest as the thief. The doca havo com to town. They are aristocrats from the tips of their tails to the ends of i bid r cold noses. Tho big onea e-corn the little onea, ami the little ones neariv bark their outsido coverings ofl" in an effort to prove that thev are not as insignificant as they look. Unlike tho beggtrs, none of them are in rsgf and their coats are g'osy enough to be cneidere I as satin dinner cowns. That anybody who has a personal attachment for a dog Ehould put him in a show is a mystery to me. The big dogs are cooped up in places not big enough for them, and they look downcast and unh.ppy ; while the little ones are so nervous mat they spend all their time barking, and when the show is over need a month's doctoring to get them in good condition again. However, without thinking about the poor dogs, the fashionable crowd look and approve, pnd are interested in the puppies, whether they are on four legs or two. Lidlputmy dog in? Would you put in a fox terrier with tne whitest of coats, who knows perfectly w hat you are talking about under any circumstances, because eatly in his Ihe he chewed tip and tli .rested an English dictionary? No, indeed; not when he cm sit in a Ikx and point with his paw to the prettiest woman in the p ace. Everybody who saw liim sa d it happened to be Mrs. Van Kenssrlear (irug-r; but that's nonsen-e; he knew tist who he vta3 choofing, and with the nowledge that ramn with tlie dictionary and the knowledge that came from extensive trave ing, i u chose a woman wdio added to her good looks wit and wisdom. That's a very clever dog. Dy the by. he's not for tale; and this is not told to boom him, but only to show bow advantageous it is for it.eu, women and dog to absorb tho English language straight early in life. The sewing classes have made more positive a well known fact, and that is the charm possessed by the apron for a man. He knows he likes'it, and yet he can't ted just why. He s tys very vaguely : "Wei , you know it' white, and has etch cunning pockets, and the ttrings tio so Pitcher'o Caotci!a,

prettily about Ihe waist; and then, don't vou know, it's so essential y womanly. The fellow wiio look-t at it always thinks to himself that g:rl knows so t'ething about making a home, and he can imagine her wi h an apron ott walking around in tht tuornieg and seeing that her household is in order." Tlie apron i Iho very ea-ence of co julry. Itshowaolf the eirlidi lines of a figure well ; and if to It fancy skirt is added a tiny full bib pinned care ully and smoothly on the bodies, then the wearer i certain that her admirers w ill grow raptnrou. Silk? Certainly not! Silk apron, unless they nr. white ones, are considered extr nieiy bad form. The proper one to weir being a fine white raimook with a decoration of hand word in tint shape of hem r-tiichin. So tho girl who wi.then to gain the heart of a yoiiru man micceeds l-est when she i at Ihe sewing circle, anno I with a needle und pre pmed to put the heart in the

poeket of Iter apron. Thu 'brunette is go going to have her in nings. .My reason lor tiating this is mat moUof tho new bonnets aro decorated with white ribbon and have white ribbon string. These are absolutely imjossiblo to any blonde, except the natural one, with a skin like peaches and cream. The woman who Ins had thrk hair and 1ns bin n idiot enough to bleach it usually baa to make up to suit her hair, or cle In r skin i of n leaden hue. Now, white ribbons w ill bring out every particle of nowdt r and rotiw'o ott her "face and make a shocking s:ectaclo of the fool and her fo.lv. The-h unctte wi I wear the w hito rihons nnd triumph in ths wv over the blonde, who will not dare to insumo them. in tho way of fahion. her blondcship baa triumphed for a hpg time, and it is only just that the brunette should at last have some righta. The bleached blonde wi I undoubtedly try tho white ties for any woman who has been eiily enough to believe that nobo ly knows that the Lord did not make her co or out of hainrmy w ith her skin, her 'a.hes and her brows, in idiot enough to try anything for eh believes that everybody in the world is bind. I regard the glistening white ribbon as a judgment come upon tne Ifidy with tho bleached locks. I'm a gre.tt beiiever in judgments aren't you? I think if one waits long enough, and watches the people whohavo done w rong, one sees them suffer for it, thoi'gh if one ha a mean enemy it's iuft as well to put the stone in one's pocket, ready for use, and then when you throw it throw so that it strikes home. Th re are some enemies to be preferred to some friends. I prefer tho open enemy to the friend who considers it a jest to discuss my weaknesses before people who are strangers to me. I prefer the open enemy to the friend who, because I believe in friendship, uses tno as long as it is convenient, and then laughs to other people about how easily I am looled. I prefer tho open enemy to the friend who comes to me when I am in sorrow, benra of my woes, and recounts them to a lot f idle listeners. I prefer the open enemy to the friend who makes friend-hip a worry and a trouble rather thau a rest and a refreshment. I prefer tho open enemy to the friend who exploits ill temper, ugly words, and divatisiaction upon me. counting that friendship gives these privileges. I prefer an open enemy always. TdV-n there is honct wareihre, no inuendoes, not backbiting, notlyingor slandering, but c'.ear, honest war, where you strike out from the shoulder, either mentally or physically, straight. Like you, a go id triend or a good enemy may be found in Bab. "Don't feel well," and yet you are not nick e.ioUiih to consult a doctor we will tell yon j'ist what you need. It is Hood's Sarsaparilla. which" wi I lift you out of that uncertain, uncomfortable, dangerous condition into a ttate of good health, confidence and cheerfulness.
