TO be serious, when we want an item
from the ADVANCE, we must read ev-
cry word of the tem.-Journal.
Yes, and you want good many of
them. Scores of items are taken almost
bodily from the ADVANCE and given in
the Journal Il week or two afterwards
as news. When we write up a subject
Of local interest, the Journal takes it
up a few weeks afterwards. When we
discuss any matter of general interest,
the Journal comes along in q few weeks
and discusses the same subject. When
we make suggestion as to public i'm
provements, etc., the Journal takes it
up in few weeks and makes a similar
suggestion. AS an apeist the Journal
is success. But in this only is it a
success. Friend and foe alike laugh at
it and speak of it with contempt. If
/ were not the "church organ' and tile
''ring organ," it would have to have
another Ere or succumb.
1t is no thanks to the Rev. D. R.
Breed that the High school building
project was settled emphatically at the
polls yesterday. The intolerance and
outrageous character of the political
h"ralgue which was delivered Sunday
night. had the tendency to make the
High school building :. partisan mat
ter, and but for the fact that his assault
upon the dominant party was not fully
known, defeat might have percled upon
tile High school banner. Religious big
OTIS can do great damage by their hypo-
critiral sanctity.-St. Paul Globe.
This misuse Of the pulpit ard prosti-
tuition of tile churches to political and
personal ends is becoming altogether
too common and is disgusting fair
minded men everywhere. The WORTH
ington churches have several times
been used during the past few months
to hold political meetings and to make
sentiment against men who contributed
more to build them than the bigots and
sneaks who have seized upon them for
their own personal ends. Well, honest
men can withhold money support from
such institutions and that is Just what
thy are doing and ought to do.
Ehrichs' Fashion Quarterly is one of
those publications of which the ladies
(IItaven bless themD never tire. Sea-
son after season it comes to tell it's
readers in which direction the weather
vahe OF Fashion points-What stuffs
and patterns are likely to be most in
vogue-wIat styles are likely to be
Worr-;nd what prices are ruling in the
great metropolitan retail marts. Its
practical utility is unquestionalle.-
Most fashion periodicals are simply pro-
motors Of extravaganza; bnt the FASH
ion Quarterly suggests economy on ev-
cry page. Instead of the usual reprints
of the designs Of Partisan costumes, it
gives its readers illustrations of solid,
serviceahle articles Of wear for every
day use, drawn from actual garments
of American make, with description
of the materials of each, and a state
ment Of the prices ut which they can he
furnished.
The Summer number, just received,
ably snstainS the record Of its predeces-
sors. The literary department presents
IL choice selection of useful and enter
tanning articles, among which may lie
mentioned beautiful and original pO-
EN-. entitled "Summer Reigns. by Mar
garet Eytinge; an interesting illustrate
cd paper on 'ilousehold Decoration, -
by Hope J.edyard, editress Of the Art
Interchange; lessons in Dressmak-
ing, 10y one Ol the DeSC noOlSteS; ana
the usual melange Of tales and sketch
es. Tie portion Of the magazine de-
voted more especially to fashion, gives
| descriptions not only Of the favorite
styles in costumes, but also Of Il variety
! of novelties in other departments, such
| as ladies' underwear, hair goods, sum.
| mer games, books. stationery, etc.,
| ETC.; each item being illustrated with
! Photographic accuracy, clearly describ-
ed, and accompanied with a statement
of cost.

Fashion Quarterly to our lady readers.
