THE fact that the republican senate
can prevent any very extensive decapita-
tion OF federal Office holders Is giving
office-hungry democrats much discomfort,
and many democratic journals are abusing
that distinguished body in advance of its
possible action in the premises. 1t is
tough to reflect that an obstinate senate
may yet bar out the hungry and thirsty
victors from the milk and honey of the
political Canaan. What an awful waste
life would become to Carl schurz' If he
should be nominated to really desirable
fat office and fail of confirmation

tomary for the registrars TO obtain their names
from the owners of the mills This year, by a

sturdy shoot fifteen feet in a summer, and thus
bridged space to an ajacent apple tree, and be-
fore winter came huge yellow roses bloomed
among the apple leaves. "A few years later the
tree was fairly hidden beneath the weight Of
roses, and so choice were they that when some
San Diego rosarian reported a roseof fifteen
inches in circumference, the cloth of gold In the
apple tree furnished one that was tritie over
eighteen inches Knife never touched it, nor
was the ground stirred beneath; it simply grew,
as if it were in a wilderness, and created for
itself at last palace of far-reacbing bloom
But the finest rose vine the writer ever saw
was by the borders of a mountain river IN north
ern California. It was a Lamarque. white
and clustered, planted by some pioneer whose
cabin was crnmbling to dust, whose fences were
buried in blackberry vines. 1t sprang from
the rich, moist soil, climbed into wild cherry
tree, bloomed along its summit, crossed to the
lower branches of an Oregon maple, and erept
higher and higher, until blossoming clusters
were cleaning in the midst of maple leaves
forty feet from the ground. Not far of was
ruined saw-niill over whose broken wheel the
water ran in sunlit sparkles. Against piece OF
stone wall the torrent had beaten in time OF
flood and undermined all except square OF
moss grown surface, over which wild white
morning glory trailed. The hillside, in some
wild winter cloud burst had hurled an avalanche
half across the narrow strip of lowland, obhtera-
ting the outbuildings and reaching within ten
feet of the unconscious rose-yine. But 1t re-
manned untouched, and To-day, as for years past,
il blooms in that lonely, lovely spot, the queen
of California roses run wild.

have heard the signifcations of some of the diff
ferent ways of placing them on envelopes. For
instance if the writer is q gentleman who wishes
to express love for a fair damSel he inclines the
label toward the left, which method is repeated
by the lady If she is favorable to his suit If on
the contrary, she wishes to give him the cold
shoulder she inclines her label to the right A
stamp in a perpendicular position signifies simple
admiration; when the bust stands ON its head
it means that the only sentiment evoked by the
face it implies that the writer Is dying for love;
If it is lying its back then the writer has got
over the attack of heart-disease. A label may

Kilt skirts of flannel are now laid in broad
plaits from four to eight inches wide, and have
three or four tuczs above the hem around the
foot.
Bishops lawn speneers are made with eight
narrow tucks down the back and front, with a
feather stitching covering the sewing of each
tuck

F1annel presses for summer.


For plain blue or white fannels tucked skirts
are much used with a pointed apron overskrt
that falls wide open On the sides to show the
tucks, and simply drapes the front and back.
These tueks, to look well, must he two and q
half or three inches wide, should be placed near
ly their own width apart. and must extend al
most up to the waist certainly as far as is visi-
bic below the sides of the drapery. A pointed
plastron of velvet is pretty finish to dark blue
flannel basques. 1t should reach just below the
top of the first darts, and should be in a single
piece tapping under a fold or revers on the left
SIDE instead of being open and fastened by but
tons. The kilt skirts of flannel are now laid in
very broad pleats from four to eight inches wide,
and these should have group
of three or four tucks above the hem
around the foot. For older ladies or for those in
light mourning there are black flannel dresses
made in the way just described for colered Han
nels, and with these Norfolk jacket with
lengthwise tueks or with box pleats is worn.
These Jackets are now made single breasted
with narrow notched collar that needs slight
chemisette or dickey beneath, or else a folded
scarf like those worn by gentlemen is used. For
more costly dresses, to wear either at the noun
tain or seashore, white, blue, or black cheviots
are chosen, and are made up in tailor styles with
velvet vest, collar, and cuffs, else braid is used
in profusion for trimming. The bison cloths
are more fancifully made, with fuller drapeiy
and have insertions and edgings of the new
worsted laces that have been only sparingly i'm
ported as yet
