Leading designers of fashions are al.
ready discussing the revival of the styles
of the Louis XIII period, and believe also
that Elizabethan rufiles and stomachers
will come into fashion for the summer
casino toiletts. In making the new skirts
dressmakers perform real stroke of
magic. For while the amateur modiste
finds herself at loss to reproduce one of
these new models, the experienced pro-
fessional knows how to fit the hips in
front gore or pleat and cause the skirt to
suddenly expand and flare outward at the
feet, where il measures many yards in cir
enmference. And this simply because
she wisely takes her knowledge from the

The st. Albans Messenger seems
to think that the reason young men
leave Vermont is that they stand nc
chance to get office, the old FOUNDERS
taking everything. This leaves no
competition and in the opinion of the
Messenger gives us mediocre service.
At this the Middlebury Register takes
up the cudgel and belabors the Mes
senger in this wise:
1t ill becomes the Messengerto talk
about the "mediocre public service"
that befalls us, when it is and long
has been the organ of ring that has
done more than all other forces com
bined to debauch the public service
of the State. How about the last
choice of governor didn't the Mes
senger, which had been bowling for a
farmer candidate, turn all its guns
against everybody except Mr.. Fuller
becasse it found that Mr.. Fuller was
going to win and it wanted to be on
the winning side in order that its
home candidate for the second place
on the ticket might win also? This
is modern history only. If one were
to look into the antiquities of the
State affairs, many more facts peril
nent to the question might be adduc-
ed. Who are the ''mediocre" public
servants abont whom the Messenger
talks, anyhow? The lieutenant gov
ernor, or who?

Anent the financial situation Presi-
dent Cleveland gives out the follow
ing to the United Press:
"The inclination on tie part of the
public to accept newspaper reports
concerning the intentions of those
charged with the management of our
national finances seems to justify my
emphatic contradiction of the state
ment that the redemption Of any kind
of Treasury notes except in gold has
at any time been determined upon Or
contemplated by the Secretary of the
Treasury or any other member of the
present Administration.
"The President and bis Cabinet are
absolutely harmonious in the deter
mination to exercise every power con-
ferred upon them 10 maintain the pub
lie credit, to keep the public faith and
to preserve the parity between gold
and silver, and between all financial
obligations of the government.
"While the law of 1890 forcing the
purchase of fixed amount of silver
every month provides that the Secre-
tary of the Treasury, in his discre-
ton, may redeem in either gold or sill
yer the Treasury notes given in pay
ment of silver purchases, yet the dec
laration of the policy of the govern
ment to maintain the parity between
the two metals seems so clearly to
regulate this discretion as to dictate
their redemption in gold.
"Of course perplexities and diff
culties have grown out of an unfortu-
nate financial policy which we found
in vogue, and embarrassments have
arisen from ill advised financial leeis-
lation confronting US at every turn !;
but with cheerful confidence among
the people and patriotic disposition
to cooperate, threatened dangers will
be averted pending legislative re-
turn to better and sounder financial
plan. The strong credit of the coun-
try is still unimpaired and the good
sense of our people, which has never
failed in time of need, are at hand to
save us from disaster"

that costs very little money, and is very
much better than the majority of paints.

a good deal for a small outlay of mon

thin coats OF paint are better than thick.
Have your paints well brushed out and
