Little Dinners.

Some OF the most delightful little
dinners are those where the number
present Is limited to four or six. There
is coziness about small party like
this that can never be attained at a table
stretching from one end OF the room 70
the other. and filed on each side with
guests. A lunch party Of six or eight
women is generally pleasanter than
one OF twice that size. Al affairs OF
these dimensions the menu needs TO be-
so elaborate as would be that required
at more formal parties. The dinner
may begin with raw oysters or tiny
CLAIMS. Soup comes next Fish may be

I. AT lunch the order il substantially
the same. except that the oysters or

place OF soups. and that there Is no
roast. Instead of IL there is some such
dish rs chops. small fillcts OF beef.

these provisions and pleasant sclcc-

deal depends upon the people who are
present. Judgment Is required that in

and the same tact should be shown by
the hostess In Introducing her friends
All the work Is not done when the
guests are invited and the refreshment
spread. The host and hostess must be
constantly on the alert to sec that peo-
Pile are not bored, that one man Is not
obliged TO talk to the samc girl all the

permitted his Administration to speak for ITSELF
and, like General Grant, being content with a
brief, courteous letter of acceptance With
consummate-tae and candor the Pres ;dent
keeps the campaign upon it's one true line.
Mr.. Cleveland's attitude will recall that of
President Jackson when he was nominated to
the Presidency. = President Cleveland
now declares his intention to rearrange the
tariff for the purpose of stimulating domestic
Industries. That is the very essence of pro-
lection, and the statesman who is governed by
that motive is in the strictest sense of the
word, protectionist.
St. Louis Republic: MIR. Cleveiand's letter Of
acceptance Is o genuine Cleveland document
clear, emphatic, straightforward and unambig
uous. Upon no single point can the charge of
hedging or evasion be made against it. It re-
inforces the demand for tariff reform and tax
reduction and states with luminous clearness
the reasons why such reform and reduction are
necessary. The paragraph on trusts places
the commander-n-chief OF the Republican
party far down at the bottom of an abyssmal
hole and the treatment OF the 'free-trade"
scare is refreshing In its appeal to the judg-
ment, the understanding and the conscience OF
plain citizens.
Chicago Times: If there could have been any
doubt about the issue of the pending campaign
heretofore there can be none now. 1t is, shall
or shall not the present unjust and excessive
tariff tax be reduced? That it has not been re-
duced, the President takes pains to show, has
not been the fault of his Administration or his
party. That it will be reduced is clearly
pledged in case it is ever within the power of
the President and his party to make the reduc-
ton. For the first time in twenty-eight years
the issue is thus squarely and irrevocably made
and the people must decide it.
Nashville CTenn.) Annerican: President Cleve-
lands letter of acceptance Is a clear, concise,
correct and able enunciation of the principles
and purposes of our Government. It is the
work OF a statesman who loves his pc pie and
hia and whose regard for their welfare
overshadows all other purposes; indeed, it
snces in considering the questions that are be-

The American Doll Boot

has carried on business in q back room
on the seventh floor of the McRookery

agitation of the Mills bill, and the dis

in Europe are very much lower than
those paid by the American Doll-Stay-

been abandoned in consequence of i'm

be evident that no self-respecting

put his labor in competition with the
pauper labor Of Europe, and this
would certainly be the case if foreign
rat-skins were admitted duty free. Mr..
Sloan has therefore retired from the
profession In disgust. The rat-catch-
