THIS is what the Helena Herald says
Of Hon. Paris Gibson's gallant battle for
state education: senator Gibson, while
he cannot be congratulated on the re-
suit, may be earnestly congratulated on
the splendid fight that he made to con
serve the cndowments for our education
al institutions. The legislative assembly
of Montana has rarely witnessed so able
and stubborn a contest, or a cause that
was more worthy of the effort" Strangely
enough The Helena Independent is as
mum as an oyster on this subject.

TuIs senatorial deadlock is a disgrace
to Montana. 1t is IA wonder the unfet-
tered members OF the legislature regard
less of party do not get together
and name an Independent citizen
Of the state as senator, and so put an end
to this wret-hed Juggling for personal
advantage urged on by personal spite.
All that is necessary is to select a man
who understands the needs of Montana.
and who is an ardent friend Of free silver
This move would "cut tho Gordian knot

\ BILL. has been introduced into the
Minnesota legislature requesting an APP
preparation of $4,000 per n for -four
years to provide for the opening of CLOSED

The legislature should not fail some
time within this session to act upon ~
Superintendent Gannon's~ suggestion re-
garding truancy legislation. Thirty
seven per cent Of the states children
between eight and fourteen growing up
without schooling is a dangerous condi-
ton of affairs. There will never be any
support for the separate state institu-
tions at this rate and since the legisia-
tors show such an aptitude for multi,
plying schools, they should be equally
active in multiplying students.

TnE TRIBUHE believes that Mr.
Cleveland is entirely right in his views
on the silver purchase law, 1t should
be repealed at once, and free silver coin

It is evident that Mr., Cleveland is giving

One Of the surprising facts in connec-
ton with the Worlds fair is hat Georgia
has made no arrangements to be repre-.
scented. There was some clause in the
state constitution forbidding a lcgisla-
tive appropriation for the purpose and
there was not enough state pride, it
seems, to raise a fund from private re-
sources. Georgia, as is well known in
this country, is the present empire state
Of the south, leading in manufacturing
and in mineral and timber industries.
The omission is especially to be deplored
as she is one of the original thirteen

Everyday presses very Cheap.


Clever shoppers are just now getting
some elegant dresses at comparatively
small expense by purchasing two or three
handsome remnants Of harmonizing col
ors. The shops are full of these small
length goods left over from recent heavy
sales. A purchase may be made, for ex-
ample, Of pretty crepon, the width
serving for the length of the round skirt.
The part sloped away in the seam at the
back Of the skirt will make a small fig
arc jacket or one in mikado style open
up the back. A second remnant of
changeable, striped or dotted surah or
taffeta silk will make a guimpe with full
sleeves or shirt waist. This should re-
peat the colors of the skirt or be in con-
trast with it. Velvet collar, cuffs and
skirt frills complete the dress. This is
only an instance of the many selections
and uses that may be made of remnants
of host of beautiful and desirable fab
rics-silks, laces, trimmings, muslins, or
candies, sheer woolens. tweeds, etc.--at
about half the price of materials cut di-
rectly from the entire piece.-New York

Summer Outing Dresses.

The experience of last summers great
heat has made something cooler than
woolen desirable for outing dresses when
the mercury is in the nineties, and for
this reason suits Of linen duck, of pique
and of gray linen are provided in great
numbers. When only one outing dress
can be bought. serge and hopsacking are
preferred, as they serve for more various
occasions, but for those who can afford
variety the cottons and linens are COM
mended as second dresses for extremely
warm weather.
The duck suits come in white and tan
color, either quite plain or with small
specks, lines or bars Of color. The pref
tiest choice is the pure white linen duck
in basket weaving, called sometimes linen
sacking, and sold in linen stores at 60
cents yard, it's width being nearly
yard. The suit consists of three pieces
blazer with fiaring revers, a vest cut
double breasted and gored skirt.
The front of the blazer and the revers
are doubled; otherwise the suit is with
out lining. While the white duck suits
are most cool looking, those of ecru or
tan color are CHOSEN BY women Of fash

medicinal value Of Lemons.

The time of year has arrived when do
not care to keep my lemons. Indeed
the faster I can now use them the better
for my family. We need their helpful
acid to counteract the excess OF fats
which have been consumed - more
doubtless than have been assimilated.
Why now goad the weary, long tired liv-
or with blue pills when lemons are sup
Piled In lavish profusion? Surely they
are the product Of the soil where dwell
the most bilious people. Paterfamilias
is suffering from biliousness; therefore
throw physic (blue piils) to the dogs
and they, wise creatures, will not touch
it-giving in its stead lemon tea or hot
lemonade. The excess of bile is thus
summarily destroyed, and perchance a
fever routed.
Malaria threatens another member Of
the family. / forthwith prepare the
"Roman" cure, which is nothing more
than lemons, rind and pulp cut up in wa
ter--a pint of water to lemon-and
boiled down to one pint; dose, one tea
spoonful before a meal. Though suffi-
ciently sour to give o marble bust a wry
face, pharmacists claim 1T has cured
cases SO stubborn that quinine had no
more effect than sugar or salt.
Perhaps the little 8-year-old shows
symptoms of severe cold. I shall nip
1t in the bad" by fire warmth and a hot
lemonade. If she is hoarse, / shall bake
lemon about 20 minutes and squeeze
therefrom the hot juice upon half cup
Of granulated sugar. The pleasant and
palatable sirup thus formed will avert
that most to be dreaded Group.
Nothing better can ! find to impede
threatened pneumonia attack upon my
self. The remnants of some of the lem
ons I shall give Biddy to rub her hands
with after the weekly washing, thereby
preventing the chapping which she so
mulch breads. Clean rind pieces left from
cooking I shall place in glass jar, cover
ing with alcohol, thereby manufacturing
a superior quality of lemon essence
