For evening, gloves are worn long,

One of the most elegant wraps yet i'm
ported is carriage cloak of deep, rich

shoulders, but can, by n special fashion
of folding, be made into an almost
straight collar TO stand up about the ears.
Ooitfures are not SO high as they were
in the summer, ami for ball toilets they
are generally finished with long curis
falling in the neck. Ornaments whether
flowers or feathers, are put on very much

Fathers case. Mr.. Edward S. Hicks,
Pleasant Valley, Duchess Co., N. w.,
suffered long from stones in the kidneys
He consulted the best physicians but
without obtaining any relief. A friend
advised Mr.. Hicks Ia consult DIR. David
Kennedy of Rondout. N. Y. He did so.
DIR. Kennedy saw Mt once that tile suffer-
ing mans difficulty was stone in the
kidney. and that Favoiitc Remedy was
the medicine he needed, and prescribed
it. Mr.. Hicks went home and took the
Favorite Remedy according to directions,
and was both surprised and delighted to
find himself presently improving. To-
day Mr.. Hicks is we'll man.
Sons case. Mr.. S. w. Hicks, the son
of Mr.. ELS. Hicks, whose case is described
above, was afflicted with stone in the
bladder. by the advice of his father he
wrote to DIR. David Kennedy of Rondout
N. y. The doctor replied, advising the
use of Favorite Remedy, which had
worked SO successfully in the fathers
case. The son, who had been assured DI
the local physicians that they could dc
nothing more for him, tried Fayoritt
| Remedy at venture. After two week
use of it he passed stone from tn,
bladder three-fourths of an inch long ant
of the thickness of a pipe stem. Sine
then he has had no symptoms of the re
turn OF the trouble. What greater bene

heard the other day bit of gossip,
which may or may not be true, but was
from good sources. Il was about Mr..
Blaine, who for nearly year past has
dropped out of Washington life, and now
that he is not to come back this winter is
likely to be even less felt here. The story
runs that after Garfield was elected Presi-
dent and Mr.. Blaine was made Secretary
of State, his friends determined that he
should be the candidate IN 1884. Mr..
Blaine made up his mind to the same
things Some of his associates felt that as
Secretary of State and Presidential candi-
date he ought to live better than he had
been accustomed, and they determined to
build him house. One of the leading
spirits in the idea was j. w. Bosler, one of
the heavy star route contractors. He fur
nished most of the money for the mag
nihcent house that Mr.. Blaine built, but
which was not finished until after the
political situation was suddenly changed
and Mr.. Arthur became President. The
next winter Mr.. Blaine went to live in the
new mansion, and there his daughter was
married to Major Coppinger. But that
summer Bosler died and his estate was to
be settled Although the house was in
Mr.. Blaine's name, its ownership was
really in his friends, chiefly Bosler. 1t be.
came necessary to derive some income
from the latter's estate, and rental for
the house was suggested. Mr.. Blaine by
that time, and this is we'll known by his
friends, had abandoned the idea of being
President. He demurred at the high rent
and said he would rather take another
house. He did SO, the Marcy house on
Lafayette Square. The rich Chicago dry
goods man, Mr.. Letter, came to live il
the Dupont Circle residence. The reason
given was that Mr.. Blaine could not afford
SO large place. Last winter Mr.. Blaine
expected to live here as President-elect,
and Senator WINDOWS house was secured
for him, but this season he is not back al
all. The house built with SO much osten
tation is still rented to strangers, and the
gossips say that the short season that he
T lived there two years ago completes Mr.
Blaine's occupancy. If he had beer
chosen President the house would proba
bly, have been presented to him, but no
now.

the National House of Representatives.
WIS pemocratic.S At Che Republican
national convention, which was hold in
Chicago in July, 1884, Mr.. Arthur was
defeated for the Presidential nomination
by the stalwarts Of his own party, aud he
has retired to private life in New York.
II will be observed from these brief
precedents that the President, while
in one sense a convenience in the mechan-
ism of government, is in political sense
drawback. Holding somewhat the situ-
ation of the heir of the crown, he is
almost from his very existence antago-
nistic TO the head OF the ticket because
he is always adopted as n compromise.
