THE TRADITIONAL WHITE,

Tradition, in this case as binding and
immutable as those dreadfully tedious
laws OF the Modes and Persians, dictates
that this particular gown shall be in
white. One wears white cashmere,
nun's-yeiling, Bedford, or crepe. White
silk or satin are rather too close to bridal
attire, but surah draped with crepe is
quite suitable.

New YORK. May THE number OF
girls nowadays taking courses in the
colleges aud seminarics constitutes a
considerable percentage OF our maiden
hood and entities them to consideration,
even at the hands Of fashion.
Fashion and the "higher education "
are supposed to be enemies. When q
girl rises to the dignity OF bas Jtcu
she is supposed to care no more for the
frpperies and varieties o. dress, but to
set her mind on noblor objects.
Well. maybe there is such species OF
girl-she. for instance, who wears spec
tacles and lives at the Hub and dotes on

PROHIBITION MASS MEETING.
At the Court House, Topeka, December
%, 1892, at 3. D. m.

To all Friends of Prohibition in Kansas:
In view of the solicitations and deep
anxiety of many loyal defenders of pro-
hibition in the different parties, we pre-
sent this call To this meeting all friends
Of prohibition and good order are invited,
irrespective Of party. There is need
First--Of more information. We should
talk over the plans, plots and trickery Of
our common enemy. We should learn
their and our strength, and map out the
best course for the future.
Second-Of cohesion and cooperation.
All the leading bodies Of Christians have
passed ringing resolutions in favor of no
saloon. Many who are not connected
with any church are Of the same mind.
Surely, if we will unitedly light the COM
mon foe of God and man, we will gain the
victory.
There proves to be, undeniably, a con-
solidation Of the powers Of evil and there
should be like consolidation of the bet.
ter elements. The present is the pivotal
day for Kansas and the country. Our
cooperation means preservation and an
advancement of the best interests Of all.
Papers by prohibitionists in different
parties will be presented. Come and let
us reason together for the advancement
OF our common cause.
The recent meeting of the State Tenn
perance Union was productive of good.
We feel that another meeting on the
same line will be beneficial.
AS the prohibition party will be hold
ing it's annual conference in Topeka

The Columbian Historical Novels.

Vol. ", Pocahontas, Story of Vir-
ginia," 366 pages, by John r. Musick.
Illustrated with full half-tone engrav-
ings and other illustrations. Cloth,
12mo, gold stamps, etc., $3.50. New
York, London and Toronto, Funk &
Wagnalls.
"Pocahontas is a fascinating story
which pictures the period in the settle
ment of our country just prior to the es-
tablishment of the colony of Virginia.
The dry old way Of teaching history
which makes it, as Oscar Wilde says, a
mere record Of war and other crimes, is
never attractive. The story is pictur-
esque and pathetic aud makes the charac-
ters and the manners of that time very
real and very near. The manners and
customs of the period and place are pho
tographed as they cannot be by dull
prosy writing. The old story of Capt.
John Smith and the loving Pocahontas
is retold with new features. The book
is one of series Of twelve, the purpose
OF which Is to present panoramic view
of the rise and growth of our composite
American nation covering a period of
400 years. Each story is complete in
itself aud will be enjoyed by young and
old alike

THE PICKLE FACTORY.
IL VIII Come to BrattIebOro and Farm
ers are Urged so Raise Cucumbers.

Editor PhHnir:-It has been decided
that Mr. A. l.. Blair of the Cromwell pick
ling works will locate in Brattleboro and
build up the picking business here.
want a word with farmers about the bust
ness and its advantages. The cucumber
seeds need to be planted in June from the
10th to 30th. Picking commences in
August and lasts until frost comes. The
average yield per acre is 100000, the price
paid is 81 per thousand.
The necessary investment is the use of a
good piece of ground and the labor of rails
ing and picking. The work of planting
and cultivating is not hard; the hills being
far apart. the cultivator does most of the
wedding At picking time comes the tug
of war but one man will manage an acre.
The cucumber being largely water does
not take fertility from the soil and is a sure
and quick money crop. Any farmer who
has the land and can give the labor will be
pretty sure to do well to try this crop this
year.
1t is necessary to have from 30 to so
acres to give the business a good start with
the certainty of doubling this amount an
other year. About 20 acres have been
promised. Thirty to so acres in cucumbers
for this town and vicinity means $4,000 to
5000 extra cash in the pockets of our
farmers.
Let all who can raise patch of Gu
cumbers this year, if only to experiment.
Respectfully, C. d. WHITMAN.

BRATTLEBORO.

1t was evident last Saturday that gentle
spring had sprung.
Mr.. Macomber of Boston, under whose
direction the opera Priscilla is to be given,
is in town to take charge of this weeks re-
hearsals.
The prices for meal are still advancing
and the present quotations are S1.25 and
$1,30. Cottonseed meal sells at lao and
Sl:45 and provender at S1.30 and $1.35.
The Democratic state committee met at
Montpelier last evening and reelected Hi
ram Atkins chairman and John II. Senter
secretary. Every county in the state was
represented. Mr.. Atkins received 10 votes
and Seneca Haselton of Burlington four.
1t is understood that Rev. DR.. George
Leon Walker is to resign his Hartford
charge on account of the unfavorable con-
dition of his health. Dr. Walker will come
to Brattleboro as soon as he is able to make
the journey.
The granite manufacturers and the en-
ployes are still at loggerheads, and from
present appearances the struggle will be of
long duration. All the non-union men
who can be engaged are at work in the
quarries, but the number is comparatively
small.
The services of Leitsinger's orchestra
for commencement exercises are in great
demand, the engagements already made
being at Arms academy, Shelburne Falls,
Mass, High schools at Hinsdale, Newport
and Winchester, N. H., Chester, the North
street school and Hinsdale High school
