of oiled silk, which is always ugly and
difficult to sew. but of heavy gray linen
or of fine bed ticking, both of which are
strong, thick and durable. Your own
Judgment must guide you as to the
number and size of compartments that
are necessary or desirable, and your
taste must decide the colors. You have

Here is true story of ex-rebel officers

them. with their friends. were sitting in
the Westmoreland Club. when one OF them,
an officer of high Confederate rank, now a
resident of New York city, said:
" | see that Representative Flower, of
New York, has introduced q resolution ask
ing Congress to give S250.0O0 towards

tions in every southern newspaper and
limit them to southern men,"
There was momentary silence. when n
leading ex-ofhcer rose and said, =" | agree
to add -, 900 to your subscription"
Then in quick succession, others rose
and pledged various sums. until within a
few minutes $4,000 had been thus raised.
If names could be given the public would
see that these were no idle boasts, but the
words and subscriptions of men sole TO
