For the benefit Of some Of the REG
1srEa's readers who are little inclined
to think that CLEvELAND's position is
not strictly Democratic on the financial
question, we append that part Of his
letter OF acceptance which refers TO
finances. The most rabid silver man
who wishes to be fair to oil sections Of
the country, and who is anxious
for the welfare Of the whole coun-
try, cannot help but endorse the
sentiment as expressed in these few
lines. Those OF our farmer friends who
are for free silver, because they think
we have not enough money In circula-
tlon, should not only read the extract
here produced, once, but several times.
On the question Of finance, in his let
ter of acceptance, he wrote as follows:
The people are entitled 10 sound and hon.
est money, abundantly sufficient in volume
70 supply their business needs. But what
ever may be the form Of the peoples cur
renoy, national or stste,-whether gold,
silver or paper, it should be so regulated
and guarded by governmental action, or by
wise aud careful laws, that no one can be
deluded as 70 the certainty and stability OF
its value Every dollar put into the
hands OF the people should be of the same
intrinsic value or purchasing power. With
this condition absolutely guaranteed gold
and silver can be safely utilized upon equal
terms In the adjustment Of our currency.
in dealing with this subject no selfish
scheme should be allowed 70 intervene, and
no doubtful experiment should be at
tempted. The wants OF the people, arising
from the deficiency or imperfect distribu-
ton OF money circulation, ought 10 be fully
and honestly recognized and effectually
remedied. 1t should, however, be constant
~ remembered that the inconvenience or
loss that might arise from such situation
can be much easier borne than the univer-
sal distress which must follow a discred-
tied currency"

Now gentlemen Of the Senate, 1t is
your duty to don your working clothes
and get the country out OF the rut. If
you will finish the business, so
nicely begun In the House, the bankers
will be a little freer with their money,
trade will move along in its usual course
and business men will feel easier,

NOTICE


kindly keep out Of my private Office until
'''0' ROBERT O. INGERsoLL. :
Ever since Col. Ingersoll moved from
Wall street up to his Nassau street
Office, a ear ago, he has had scores OF
religious cranks as callers, but his last
visitors were the most persistent. His
private secretary described some OF the
recent cranks be has had as visitors.
A few weeks ago an Englishman call
ed on the Colonel and endeRvorsd to get
him to organize new religion for all
mankind. II was elastic enough to suit
even the most hardened sinner or the
man with religious scrupleS. He de-
clared that he would bring band Of
his followers down TO the Colonel's
Office and pray there daily until the
great orator was converted 20 bis new
religion. When the fellow appeared
with a couple Of praying companions
he was handed card on which the
Colonel had written, In his big, bold
hand:
~ have gone to Europe. VIII be
glad TO see you in the fall.
The maker of the new religion will
have to look elsewhere for convert,
for the colonel emphatically declares
that he is perfectly we'll satisfied with
the views he now holds.
Chauncey NJ. Depew recently received
a call from a man who had a new rell-
giou already made which he wanted DR..
Depew 10 put on the market. DR.. De-
new could not see his way clear TO
adopting the new religion, so he sent
the maker of it down to Col. Ingersoll,
declaring that be understood the COL
onel was looking for just such all article.
Col. Ingsrsoll, after reading DR.. Depew's
letter OF introduction, handed the fell
low a ten dollar bill.
''You can keep this ten," said the col
onel, 'but for Heavens sake keep out
of here"
1t is needless to say that the man with
the new religion accepted the ten.
There is an old lady up In Delaware
county who for three years past has
been sending Col. Ingersoll each week
choice bits Of hymns, Bible leaflets, SER
mons and religious quotations. Last
week the colonel received from her 3
lot Of religious matter that had been cut
from some weekly paper. In glsncing
his eyes over IL the colonel found that
the old lady had made very bad mis-
take 10 pastlng into her letter the clip
pings referred 10. SandWiched in be-
tween two hymns which had been cut
from a weekly paper was the following:
LILLY Stebbin's great burlesque show,
at Music Hall, next Monday evening.
Don't miss IT, Great galaxy Of beauty
and tslentl All starsr'
The Colonel sent this letter back 10
the old lady In Delaware county. with
Z polite note OF inquiry as to how she
made bnrlesQue shows and Scripture
kgree. A few days later the old lady
appeared in person to make explana-
lions. In putting up her ScrtDtural

But her heart was in the keeping OF a

Kerchief bags, photograph holders and
the like are made Of embroidered linen.
The innumcrable doilies and center
pieces which housekeepers think essen
tial nowadays make acceptable work for
warm weather, and i'm their decoration
much variety may be represented. The
very prettiest set / have seen was made
of linen, fine, but heavy texture, and the
centerpiece for the table is round and
about % inches in diameter. The edge
is worked in white linen floss. in broad
scallops, which are themselves scalloped.
Within this edge is a wreath-the dain-
tiest possible thing-formed of sprays of
maidenhair fern in delicate shadings of
green wash silk and so delicately
wrought as to make nature herself Won
der. The accompanying finger bowl
doilies are made to correspond on a
smaller scale. A o'clock tea table
cover might be carried out effectively
after this same idea.
A dainty piece of linen work is illus
trated in the glove case pictured. 1t is
made from piece of Irish linen 20 inches
long and is tG inches wide and is folded
over to form pocket The lap is en-
broidered with few careless sprays Of
daisies, and in one corner is the word
''Gants," dono in white silk. The case
is lined with yellow india silk, and the
edges are borrd with satin ribbon
matching in color. Within the pocket is
attached thin sschet of the silk, divid-
ing the pocke. in two.

q mystery not likely to be readily solved,
unless perhaps the simple preference for
bonnet instead of hat indicates re-
tentive memory. A becoming bonnet is
a dainty setting for the face, which
brings out it's sweetest expression. while
a large hat forms frame more noticea-
BILE than the picture beneath.
A dear little bonnet of gold lace has
a garland of roses across the front, with
black lace wings and few nodding buds
for a high trimming in front. White
guipure and gold insertion form dainty
combination, which is trimmed with
pink roses at the back, wild oats, fill
ing Of lace, and pink and yellow ospreys
in front, and black strings.
There seems to be a mania for hats
turned directly up in front, a style
which is most becoming to young and
pretty face. One of the shapes sketched
is called the Jane Hading, and ii is a
panama straw with wide brim grace
fully turned up and trimmed with white
satin ribbon and an aigret Of roses and
buds in variegated colors.
For those who prefer more sober
kind Of elegance, there is black Tuscan
straw, similar in shape, trimmed with
black ostrich feathers and close bunch
of flowers or small tips, which apparent
ly hold the turn up brim in place.
The poke bonnets, which in the early
season made futile attempt to insert
themselves into favor, are not popular
or likely to become so. They are ugly
and unbecoming to almost every face.
Insects are favored for trimming, and
some of the small bonnets look as if a
butterfly had fiuttered into the hair to
rest for moment. Fhe milliners have
original ways of using wings, aigrets and
plaitings of lace.
