None too soon to be think
ing of outing wear.
The simplest outing cloth is
Ioc a yard. Woven like fan-
mel, looks like some flannel;
warranted every thread cotton.
A humping big ten cents
worth nevertheless. In just
the modest stripes that modest
people like.
A little better, a little pret-
tier, I6c. Stripes and plaids.
Still all cotton.
At IS and 3oc we touch the
Ceylon Flannels. Sure enough
wool, but with cotton enough
to stop shrinkage. You hardly
suspect the cotton. Stripes
and plaids.
Other Ceylons come at 37H,
so, and 6oc. Dainty stufs.
Zephyrs. They WOO the air
and yet bar any chilly breath.
Warmth without heaviness.
At the same counter the
dainty satin striped Flannels.
AS rich stuffs of the sort as
come from the other side.

An Hour of Prayer.

The following proclamation was issued
last Friday by the President Of the United
States Of America. A proclamation.
A hundred years have passed since the
government which our forefaihers founded
was formally organized At noon on the
goth of April, 1888, in the city of New York,
and in the presence of an assemblage Of the
heroic men whose patriotic devotion had led
the colonies to victory and independence,
George Washington took the oath of Office
as Chief Magistrate of the newborn repub-
lie This impressive act was preceded, at 9
O'Clock in the morning, in all the churches
of the city, by prayer for Gods blessing on
the government aud its first President.
The centennial of this illustrious event in
our history has been declared a general holi-
day by act Of Congress, to the end that the
people Of the whole country may join in
commemorative exercises appropriate to the
day. In order that the joy Of the occasion
may be associated with a deep thankfulness
in the minds of the people for all blessings in
the past, and devout supplication to God
for their gracious continuance in the future,
the representatives of the religious creeds,
both Christian and Hebrew, have memorial
lied the government to designate an hour for
prayer and thanksgiving on that day.
Now, therefore, /, Benjamin Harrison,
President Of the United States of America,
in response to this pious and reasonable re-
quest, do recommend that on Tuesday, April
80, at the hour of O'Clock in the morning,
the people of the entire country repair to
their respective places of divine worship, to
implore the favor of God that the blessings
of liberty, prosperity and peace may abide
with us as people and that his hand may
lead us in the paths Of righteousness and
good deeds.
In witness whereof have hereuuto set my
hand and caused the seal of the United
States of America to be affixed.
Done in the city of Washington this 4th
day of April, in the year of our Lord, one
thousand eight hundred and eighty nine, and
of the independence of the United States the
one hundred and thirteenth,
BENJAMIN HARRISON.
By the President
JAMES G. BLAINE, Secretary of State.

LITERARY NOTES.
HARPRR's MAGAZINE.

Bjornsjerne Bjorusou's analysis of the poll.
tieal situation in Norway, which is to appear
in Harpe''s MagasiHe for April, wins pecu.
liar value and interest from 'the large and
fearless" life he has himselfled in the poll
tics of his native country. He was the head
of the uprising against the reactionary ideas
Of theKing of Norway and Sweden which re-
suited in the autonomy ofNorway-"a ceun.
try as W. D. Howells says, ''when there is
no longer a nobility, and where democratic
principles prevail as thoroughly as in ours. d
scRIBNER's MAGAZINE
for April is notable for the variety Of its con.
tents, which include popular articles on
railroad affairs, shipbuilding, mountain clim-
bing, and the anatomy of coutortionists
literary "reminiscences of Scott, De Quincy
Burns, and Dr. John Brown.
The illustrations show equal richness
variety, and interest.
A paper which is sure to cause wide dis
cussion is "The Prevention Of Railroad
Strikes" by Charles Frincis Adams, Presi.
dent of the Union Pacific. The author has
held this remarkable paper unpublished for
more than two years, thinking that the time
was not ripe for it. Events OF the past year,
especially the c. B. and Q. strike, have con.
vinced him that deep.seated trouble exists
in the relations of railroad employees to
railroad companies; and that his paper may
be a timely contribution to an important dis
cussion. He advocates the division of en-
ployees into a temporary and permanent
service, the former being probationary and a
step to promotion. The permanent service
should have certain rights and privileges
which cause to be eagerly sought-such as
freedom from fear of unjust Dismissal tri-
bunal where the employee can be heard in his
own defence; the possibility of rising to any
position; insurance aud pension funds, and an
active voice in the management of the road
through a representative system resulting in
council of employees who would act
a small executive committee. The paper is,
all in all, one Of the most important in the
Railway series.
THE Building of an Ocean Greyhound. ~
by William H. Rideing, describes pictures
quely and effectively the marvellous industry
of the great Clyde ship-yards, where the
swiftest transatlantic steamers are made.
The illustrations show the City Ne'O York
an other vessels in various stages of the pro-
cess of building.
DR.. Thomas Dwight, ofthe Harvard Medi-
cal School, describes fully, for the first time
in popular article, the peculiar Anatomy
of the Coutortionist. " The peculiar powers Of
these Snake Men" are shown not to be
chiefly the result of training, but are possible
because of the unusual construction of the
skeleton. The illustrations are from photo
graphs of several expert contortionists.

IA Swindler,s Slv Trick.

A most ingenious swindle is being worked
by travelling peddler in New Jersey coun.
try tows. He carries bottle of medicine, a
box of salve and bottle of ''perfumed dis
infectant," and the whole lot cost a dollar,
He particularly urges the merits of the disiu-
fectant and says that when the the cork is
left out the stuff diffuses a pleasant and
healthful odor through the house. He
leaves a sample bottle to be tried, aud silly
slips the cork out, leaving the open bottle
behind. The liquid is very volatile, and
consequently when the peddled calls again
in few days the bottle is about half empty,
the stuff having evaporated. He demands
SOC for what has been used j." and is so
vehement in his demands that he generally
gets it. He is reaping a harvest of half dol

Snrinp Medicine

The necessity offspring medicine is almost
universally admitted. And the superiority
OF Hoods Sarsaparilia for this purpose be-
comes more and more widely known every
year. That power to purify the blood, and
those elements of strength and health which
the system Graves, and to which it is so sus-
ceptible at this season, are possessed by this
peculiar medicine in pre-eminent degree.
Scrofula, pinples, boils, or any humor, bill
iousness, dyspepsia, sick headache catarrh,
rheumatism, or any diseases or affections
caused or promoted by impure blood or low
state of the system, are cured by Hoods
Sarsaparilla. Try the peculiar medicine.

FOR many years the proud boast OF
Democracy in Delaware has been, the
economical and righteous government
by the Democratic party of this State.
80 long has this song been sung by its
organs to the credulous people who
accepted assertions as gospel truth
that the shortcomings Of the dominant
party were easy to smooth over. But
the day of Constitutional Reform
dawned in Sussex county in 1882, and
in 1888 the full effect Of its morning
sun was felt by the moss-back follow
ers Of the old constitution in the shape
Of defeat at the pells. That the posi-
tiOn Of those leaders In Democratic
politics has been insincere, the utter
anees Of their party organs throughout
the State now proclaim, and proves
that their control of the offices was of
more Importance than the best inter.
ests of the people. In contrast with
the boasted economy Of Delaware's
government by the Democratic party,
the following from the editorial col
umns Of the DelawareaN of last week,
is interesting;
"For twenty years prior to 1870, the aver
age annual outlay to pay the running expen-
seq Of the State government of Delaware
(eHclusive the interest on the public debit
was less than forty thousand dollars. Since
1870 the expenses Of the State government
have steadily and persisteutly increased,
until to-day it takes about one hundred
thousand dollars to meet the annual State
outlay, to say nothing Of the interest account.
There ought, in all conscience, to be halt
called on this matter of increased expendi-
ture Of the public money. There has been
no important public improvement to cause
this vast increase in the States expenses.
There has been but few, if any. new Offices
creaied that have to be paid, and there can

THE bill championed hy Represen-
tative VIM. E, Davis, which purposes
taxing all bonds, mortgages and secu-
titles Of like character owned in Della
ware is variously criticized. In our
opinion, the law, if enforced, would be
the means of Tightening the hurthen
of tax upon real estate, and cause much
capital to seek investment in legiti-
mate trade. The DelaUayeaH regards
the measure as one of the most impor-
tant considered this session. 1t says
on this subject:
'The people of Delaware are living under
the same tax laws-as far as taxation applies
to the counties-that our forefathers lived
under nearly one hundred years ago. These
laws were enacted when but little, except
the land was owned in the State to be taxed,
and consequently nothing else of any conse-
quence was named in the tax laws Since
that time our interests have become diversi-
fed, and the real estate is not much more
than one-half of the property belonging to
the State. The truth is we have advanced
so fa- that half ofthe wealth Of the State is
not taxed OF in other words one-half of the
property of the people is paying for the pro-
lection Of the other half, which by reason of
the laws that have existed from time imme-
mortal escapes its just, fair, and equitable
share of the burdens Of government. Every
good citizen should be willing to help sup
port the government that gives him and his
property protection. Mr.. Davis no doubt
expected his bill to meet opposition, and to
hear the cry ''you are going to driye capital
out of the State. and that the poor man will
have all the taxes to pay, &c" This has
always been the cry when such legislation is
talked Of and it always will be the cry until
the people of Delaware act as they do in
other States, tax all kinds of property alike. F"

WE hope to see the day soon come
when the State of Delaware will fur
nish her public school children with
books for school use, and while wait
ing for this era to dawn upon the State,
it would be well for those consolidated
districts, acting under special laws. to
commence the needed reform at once.
There are children attending schools
in such districts whose parents are
either too poor or too improvident to
furnish their children with text books
in accordance with those used in the
schools. This is an injustice to the
child and a hinderance to the best at
tainmepts of the graded school system,
and we believe the results would more
than repay the additional outlay.
