they are seldom deformed, never pic

ladies have by Eo means recovered
from the love of deformity. They are
a couple of centuries behind the men
in matters of costume. While they
have never again quite equalled the
extravaganza of 1850, they have, with
in the last five years, distorted their
natural shapes In many ways and IN

The best number of persons to each
bed is-one.
Away with heavy hangings, either
above or below the bed
Beware of a dusty, musty carpet
better sweetness and bare floor.
Do not fail to provide some means
for ventilation during the night.
Keep the head cool while sleeping;
but not by a draft of cold air falling
upon it.
If folding bed must be used, con,
trive some way to keep taired and
wholesome.
Let the pillow be high enought to
bring the head In natural position-
no more or less.
Thoroughly air the sleeping room
every day; air the he'd and bedding as
often as possible.
A dark out-of.the-way, un wholesome
corner is no more fitted for sleeping
room than for parlor.
A feather bed which has done service
for a generation or two Is hardly de-
sirable thing upon which to sleep.

Many Congressman have received a

purifying politics, Is a non-sectarlan
and non. PARTISAN organization COM
posed only of true American citizens
without regard to nationality.
Second, while We unite to protect
our country and its free institutions,
we attack no mans religion so long as
he does not attempt to make 1t an ele-
ment in political power.
Third, our aim Is to preserve ana
main tain the government OF the Unit

declaration of independence as set
forth by the founders, against the en-
croachments of all foreign influences:
Fourth, we regard all religio-politi.

Fifth, 1t is, in our opinion, unsafe
and unwise to appoint or elect to civil
or military offices in this country mer

foreign king, potentate or ecclesiastical
mower, or who are sworn TO obey such
power.
Sixth, we are in favor of maintaining
one general unseclarian free schoo
system, and will oppose all attempts h
supplant it by any sectarian institution
We are opposed to the use of public
funds for any sectarian purpose.
Seventh, we are in favor Of chang

pauper and criminal labor, which,
through the instrumentaliJy of Euro

Eighth, we are in favor of putting
into office honest and true patriots
who are qualified and who owe allie
glance only to the stars and stripes.

Learning a Trade.

It is rule in the imperial family ol
Germany that every young man shal.
acquire trade, going through regu
lar apprenticeship till he is able to do
good, fair journey work. This Is be
cause kingdoms are subject 20 vicissl'
tudes, and it is deemed necessary to O.
manly independence that the heir ap.
parent or q prince of the blood should
be conscious of ability to make his own
way in the world if need be. This Is
an honorable custom worthy of imlta-
ton. Franklin says, HE that hath a
trade hath an estate"
Work, however looked down upon
by people who cannot perform it, is an
honorable thing. 1t may not be very

1t is often said, with good show of
reason, that if a man will say thing
to himself often enough, he will, in
time, come to believe it especially if
it be thing that he would like to be-
lieve. Many an evildoer comes to grief
because he is the victim of this kind of
selfwrought delusion. Call it 80, and
have pity for the deluded victim. But
forget not that the first steps toward
evil need not be deeds of hand, or
harsh words, but mere vain boasting,
or the veriest off-hand empty talk.
