EDITED BY MRS. NJ. r. WALTON.

|, It begins by the cultivation in her daughter
of those qualities that attract only supe-
rior men, and is not that training which
teaches girls to shine in the parlor and fits
them solely to aTnuse oilers who come in
speeding the wares The little tricks that
make firtations, the pretty ways that SIM
ply amuse, may fill the parlors but do not
tend TO proper matchmaking. Again, that
mother is sadly negligent who fails to fend
of from her daughter intimacies with such
young men as are morally unfit for the So
ciety of pure women, or whose want OF
business qualifications and INDECENT habits
afford no promise of even moderate success.
"All for love- is a pretty bit Of sentiment,
but with nothing but love the stock is too
small for ordinary mortals TO expect long
continuance of connubial bliss. Match
making in the sense intended is not only
legitimate but is parental duty. Celibacy
is the exception, marriage the rule; then it
becomes the duty of parents, fathers as
well as mothers, to begin early training
that shall make matches easy and desirable,
by which sons shall be men worthy of daugh-
ters who are trained to be wives in the
best acceptation of the word.

NOTES..

Yellow, apricot and pale blue are the IA
vorite shades for tea gowns.
In many of the new wool dresses selv,
edges play a very prominent part.
Skirts are all gored so that they are mar
row at the top and full at the foot.
The prettiest outing dresses are made OF
finely twilled striped fiannels in cream, al
ternating with summer colorS.
Ribbon sashes are sewn thickly with
spangles, jeweled in front and edged with
deep fringes of small gold beads.
The popularity of late summer draperies
will be that they will be festooned at the
bottom of the skirt rather than at the top,
except where pannier effects are attempted.
The newest parasols are creations indeed
things of lace and silk which would defy
Old Sol to make even a plain face anything
but tolerable beneath their charming
shade.
Blue, white and scarlet REFERS with the
regulation naval insignia are worn by little
girls as well as boys; some of the blue ones
have the sailor collar and cuffs of crimson
or white and vice versa.
AS many as three little stick pins are
used on the bonnet strap. Pearl has the
first choice and for street silver is preferred,
the clusters of small diamonds, garnets,
moonstone and asterias being reserved for
reception and theater bonnets.
For this summers use, says the New
York Times, the tennis girl will get into a
skirt and blouse of plain color-gray. per-
haps, or pale greenland the touch of color
will be found in the bright cord which must
lace the belt and cuffs and braid the collar
Cheviot, wash silk waists are very pref
tily made with lengthwise tucks extending
from the bust to the belt all the way around
like corselet, or made in spencer waists
with double frills of silk down the front or
scarfs of the same, with pointed ends to
tie at the collar.
The ''bell shirt" seamless in front and
with but one seam in the back, is drawn
down at the top in folds to reveal bit of
silk embroidery fitted in about the hips,
and has insertions also of the same mate
rial set in to the skirt around the bottom
Such skirts are four yards wide and sweep
the pavement three or four inches in the
back.
A New York Recorder writer made note
the other day of some fine new fans. One
beautiful specimen was painted on chicken
skins, with handle and sticks of mother of

One OF the Six.

Miss Jean Gordon of Cincinnati, upon
whom will be conferred the degree of Phi.
G. at the Philadelphia college Of pharmacy
this evening, has earned the highest aver
age ever attained by any woman graduate.
The Alumni association also awarded her
the prize for analytical chemistry and
specimens. This prize has been awarded,
ever since the opening of the college for
the last seventy years, and during that
time only two other persons have had q
higher average. Out of the lS4 graduates
in the class of this year only six obtained
the highest rating of distinguished. Miss
Gordon was one OF the six. This thorough
going young lady has again succeeded in
proving that her sex can keep at the front
when they give their minds to it. She was
the only woman in her class, and she had to
contend against bright young men; but
brains count, and Miss Gordon possesses
brains. We congratulate her Record.

pearl. The design was supposed to repre-
sent Aurora and the rays and gold-em-
bossed work began at the handle and con-
tinued to the very trip. The colorings are
delicately rosy.
A new model for bridesmaids dress is
of smooth-surfaced white cloth, trimmed
across the front with two rows of silver
embroidery. The ceat-shaped bodice is cut
out in tabs, and is worn over a waistcoat OF
pale-green silk trimmed on either side with
Il broad stripe of silver embroidery. Gaunt-
let cuffs ornament the sleeves. The dress
is tinged faint green, owing to the fact
that it is made on green silk foundation.

To have so much to do that there is no
time for morbid thoughts.
To never think for a moment that YOU are
not attractive, and to make yourself look as
charming as possible
To be so considerable of the happiness of
others that it will be reflected back to you
as from a looking glass.
To never permit yourself to grow old,
for by cultiyating all the graces of heart,
brain and body, age will not come upon
you.
To believe that a life work has been
mapped out for you, that it is near to you,
and to do that which your hands find for
you.
To remember that the happy old maid is
the one member of a family who, not hav-
ing any other claims on her, can be Gods
own sunshine to those in sorrow or in Joy.

and substituting, "That In the sweat Of

Fourth-To enable the few 10 live In
the greatest splendor and amasa vast for
tunes, At the expense Of the public, Con
greas and the Legislative halls OF state
have been appealed 10, and the three
great forces in commerce, which, In JUS
tlce, can only be exercised by a govern
ment in the interest Of che whole people,
namely currency, transportation and
transmission Of intelligence, have been
ruthlessly turned over by the govern
ment 70 corporations, who are thereby
enabled TO lay and collect tribute
from the people, the same as the kings
Of the old world; governed, In their lay
Ing Of tribute, only by the law Of "'Ohat

Flth-ExperienCe has shown that the
only way TO successfully resist the en-
Croachments Of capital, and restore our
government 10 lis primary functions, as
conceived by lts founders, ls by an in
telligent combination Of the labor and In
dustrlal masses Of our people, and for
this reason we have founded the order OF
the Farmers and Laborer's Cooperative
Union Of America, Tor the purpose Of
educating the people upon these great
economic questions Of currency, trans
portatlon, transmission OF intelligence,
labor, land and temperance, that, by
means OF an educated ballot, right the
wrongs that have been inflicted upon the
industrial classes Of our people, without
resorting TO force or violence, which are
not and should not be tolerated In q
county where the ballot is in the hands
Of all her citizens, and made 30 effective
in the correction Of abuses. In this con-
neCtlOn II will be observed that the order
ls strictly Of o political and educational
nature, as these evils can only be cor
rected by legislation, and while we are
political, we are not partisan, but will
place principles above party, and will
work through the Republican, Demo
cratic or independent parties to aocOmp-
llsh the success of our measures.
Sixth Believing In the iustneGs Of our
cause, and the final triumph Of our pFln-
ciples, with firm reliance upon the dl-
vine will, which mOlds the destlnieS Of
nations, we publish to mankind and TO
the world at large the following:
DECLARATIONS.
Flrst-That the power to issue money
Is a sovereign power, 90 recently declared
by the supreme court Of the United
States, and should be exercised only In
the interest Of the wholspeople; and that
the government should assume the exer-
else OF this sovereign power and furnish
the people with a staple and adequate
medium Of exchange sufficient at all
times TO meet the business wants Of the
people, and that II be loaned 70 the farm
ers fox term Of years upon real estate
security at u rate Of interest not TO ex-
ceed 3 per cent per apnum, with an op.

portions OF our common country may
join in the great procession Of an advanc-
ing civilization.
seventh-We favor all those conditions
Of society necessary 10 an advancing civ
ilizatlon. A more universal brotherhood
among the useful classes Of society A
circulating medium sufficiently large 10
employ the labor Of the country. A sys-
tenn Of exchange Of commodities between
all portions Of the common country by
which exchanges can be made direct be-
tween producer and consumer without
the use OF middle men. A system OF
quarterly reports from every township
and ward in the United States TO cen
tral organization, which shall constitute
a bureau II general information, which
will enable producers TO limit their pro-
ducts TO a demand basis and ship direct
A consumer. Said reports shall state
the condition Of labor, demand or sur
plus, with prices Of same; and the do
Hclencies that exist, and give such intor-
nation TO los members as will enable OK
changes or sales Of products TO be made
direct TO the consumer, and such infor-
nation to labor that the idle or poorly
paid laborer may be Informed where 1t
is needed and what price II can com
mand. To stimulate industry and re-
ward labor In honest productions the To-
cal conferences are permitted, under
such rules as may be adopted by the ma
tlonal council, to advance money at a low
rate of interest to such OF los members as
need such accommodations until reports
are received from all parts Of the United
States and a market found for such pro-
ducts as will justify a sale, with fair re-
muneration to the producer, that labor
may be encouraged TO still greater pro-
ductive effort in the interest Of society,
and thus the useful classes be 80 protect
ed by useful and wholesome laws that
they shall not be defrauded out Of their
just dues, that all who labor may enjoy
the fruits thereof and be content in
homes that they may thus provide by
honest toll.
Eighth-As contributing to ouradvano-
Ing civilization we favor the constitu-
tional prohibition Of the liquor traffic; that
intoxicating liquors be not manufactured
or sold except for medical, scientific and
mechanical purposes, and that when 80
manufactured and sold 1t shall be pure
article, free from adulteration or Chemi-
cal poison. That to secure this condition
the government, instead Of gauging in
tOxicatlng liquors in casks prior to the
payment Of revenue Gas 1t now ls), shall
receive the same In pint, quart, half gal
lon and gallon TASKS, and shall gauge the
same and stamp with the seal Of the gov
ernment upon each flask, the time and
place Of manufacture, the proof Of the
spirits, ETC., and such liquor shall be sold
In unbroken packages only, and thus a
pure article be secured
Nlnth--We favor law Of general ap-
plicatlon compelling all manufacturers Of
goods and wares to stamp upon their
products the character of the goods. II
shoes be made with paper soles the fact
should be stamped upon the products
that the purchaser may not be defrauded
out Of his money by dishonest vender.

the public, contract their currency and
deprociate the property Of the country
hundreds OF millions Of dollars, and par
alyze industry and wreck the fortunes Of
the people.
second-We hold II TO be repugnant TO
q Republican form Of government for the
prerogative Of "colnlng money" 10 be ex-
erclsed In the interest Of any banking
corporation, and we regard as the essence
Of injustice 70 a long suffering people the
action 'of the government Of loanlng
money 10 the national hanks at the rate
Of / per cent per annum, and allowing
them 10 collect tribute from the people
upon this currency, which varies from 8
10 7 per cent, In the east 10 from 10 10 90
per cent. per annum In the west, and the
people, being cut of from their govern.
ment, are at the mercy OF their bankers,
who can combine when II suits them TO
do 30 and wreck the business OF the
country, and build up vast fortunes and
build up a caste arIgtocracy out Of the
mlsEOrtunes OF the people,
Third-We believe In sound currency,
gold silver and paper (greenbacks), all
full legal tender, and Issued by the gov.
ernment and loaned to the people upon
real estate security Gnstead OF the banker
upon his bond), and that the coinage Of
gold and silver be free and unlimited;
that ig, the government should purchase
all the gold and silver bullion offered for
sale at the rate OF 81 for every 25S
grains Of standard gold, or 81 for every
4t2h grains OF standard silver, and
should pay therefor in treasury notes
(greenbacks), made a full legal tender,
and should coin such bullion into money
FOR circulation among the people and the
payment Of the national debt.
Fourth-That all surplus coin now In
the treasury Of the United States be Inn
medIately paid out In liquidation Of the
interest bearing public debt now due,
and that all interest bearing bonds OF the
United States be paid according TO the
contract as fast as they Dhall become due,
and that hereafter no interegt bearing
obligations shall ever be Issued by the
government OF che United States; but
when any emergency RrlseS which re-
qulrea large expenditure Of money, that
the same shall be met byan issue Of nom
interest bearing paper money (green-
backs), made a full legal tender, and that
the revenue Of the government shall be
80 adjusted that the purchasing power Of
money may not be increased or dimin-
lshed by reason Of such Issue, and that
the per capita circulation may always be
and remain $50 and upward, according to
the needs Of the people,
Flfth-Under the right Of eminent do
main the property Of the individual ls
taken for the public purposes, which is
proper and just. Under this theory a
great national highway (rOllrOad) is con-
struCted; the right Of way ls condemned;
the property Of the individual is taken
on the theory of eminent domain, that
the rights OF society are paramount TO
the rights Of individuals, which is true,
but after these valuable franchises are
procured they are turned over TO cor
poratlons, where they become private
property, aud are used by corporations
as engines Of oppression, to collect tFib-

planted. In addition 10 these duties the
assessors has 20 report the condition OF
the crops, at stated times, 10 the state
board OF agriculture, until the same is
garnered The state board Of agricul-
ture then makes its report and the rail-
road officials, with these data before
them, are enabled, by few simple cal
culatlons, 20 ascertain the exact surplus
FOX shipment, and can lay tariffs 80 as a
rule TO run the farmer slightly IN debt,
and stimulate him 10 toll more, 20 raise a
larger crop the next year TO get out Of
debt, which subjects him to the same
disappointment as the preceding year.
The continuation of this policy for a
few years will enable the banker (who
ls usually a stockholder in a railway to
increase the loan upon the old home
stead, which in a few years enables the
banker Down, it and the farmer In his old
age ls homeless. TO remedy these evils
and TO force the recognition Of the divine
right "that the laborer ls worthy Of his
hire" we call upon the national and state
governments to exercise the rights Of
eminent domain and assume the control
Of all railways, telegraphs and telephones,
and operate the same In the interest OF
the whole people, adjusting the tariffs 80
that they will be merely seli-supporting,
like our mail services, and that In exer-
Clsng this right Ct eminent domain the
property be appraised at its real value,
and that such corporation be paid such
sums Of money, less whatever may have
been contributed toward the construction
OF these enterprises, by subsidies in lands
or municipal bonds voted by people,
and that all such subsidies shall be re-
tanned from the appraised value OF such
property and turned over to the parties
rendering such construction aid, and
that hereafter no such public franchises
shall ever be conferred upon any private
corporation,
SiXth-We call attention to the fact
that the public lands Of the United States
have been given away by Congress to
corporations In tracts equaling empires
In extent. The aggregate grants Of lands
TO these corporations embraces more
acres than the thirteen colonial states Of
the primitive union, and equal In extent
nine such states as the great state of
Ohio. In addition TO these alarming en-
crOachments upon the homes Of the peo.
pie great English and Scotch syndicates
have conspired, and under the guise of
stock ranches have fraudulently entered
and acquired title TO about 23,OOO,0OO
acres Of public lands. We can form some
idea Of the extent of land embraced in
these figures by taking therefrom the
acres comprised In the states Of Massa-
chusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut, Della
ware and Rhode Island, and then we
would have remaining from the original
100000 acres $3.50 square miles Of
land TheRe enormous crimes upon the
rights OF the people call for prompt and
energetic measures at the hands Of Con.
gres9 for the enactment Of such laws as
will effectively protect the future homes
Of our people by limiting the holding OF
lands 10 the necessities Of the Individual
not to exceed GAO acres to any one person.
and none but American citizens shall
hold title to the same, and that all un-
