auired is six and half yards. This does not include ruffles. Cut by the diagram given here petticoat of silk will be one over which your dress maker will like to 'hang" your gown skirt, because the silk fullness holds 1t out we'll; and worn over 1t your gown will keep its contour-an advantage which silk petticoats possess over cambric, however perfectly the latter may be cut and made.
 Gore the front width with a differ. ence of ten inches at the top, then take four widths of your silk and fold it over according to the first diagram, measuring your corresponding tops and bottoms exactly, with difference of seven and half inches between them. In this manner you get two gores out of one width. Four of these widths make eight gores, and these are put together, four on either side of the front, the bias edge, of course, al- ways going to the back. A seam will then fall directly down the back, and the bottom of the petticoat will lie in flutes just as your dress skirt does.
 Before you put on your ruffies and after you have trimmed the bottom even, face the skirt with bias facing of such stiffening material as you pre- fer, about twelve inches in width; this keeps the skirt from dragging around the feet. Across the four back gores run ribboh drawstring, which holds the fullness together in the back and keeps the dress skirt bouffant.
 In trimming silk petticoat one or two large rutfles are better than the small ones commonly used. If your skirt is well clear of the gound you can pink them; otherwise hem them, for

 There is new belting for petticoats that is inexpensive, only nine cents yard. It is closely woven, of fine linen threads, and is double, with the bot tom edges fuller than the upper. This gradation gives the necessary spring for the gathers over the hips and back, while the top keeps the skirt tight about the waist. It comes only in white and black, but these two colors will answer all purposes.-N. Y. Ad- vartiSar

Simplicity is synonymous with beauty in a child's wardrobe-much trimming and adorning being altogether out of place on the little figures, which pos sess sufficient beauty in themselves. Perhaps of all the quaint, pretty little costumes for the wee bit women noth- ing can quite take the place of the guimpe, with its overdress of contrast ing color and material. It's universal popularity and long living prove its merits.

THE FIRST QUARREL.
Why the Tlniest Fracture of Family Peace
 Should Be Avoided.

Watch beginnings. There is always a point where the entering wedge breaks in, and after this the progress of disintegration is easy. It is the first quarrel that makes possible the next, and after one or two fights and recon ciliations, those who love each other, it may be devotedly, rowhccustomed to strife, and no longer 0el horror stricken at the bare mention of it. The little rift is not more than hand breadth, but may widen and broaden wreck of all household happiness fol- low the first tiny fracture of peace.
 In the union of husband and wife, which is the most intimate and confi- dential relationship on earth, there must be something more than mere superficial admiration, the one for the other, says Ladies' Home Journal. The two have pledged to each other life long conservation. Nothing can affect one without equally affecting the other. For veal or woe they have joined hands, and to the outside world they present united front.
 And yet, if testimony could be taken, it would be found that many married people have not been perfectly happy during the early years of wedlock. There has been friction. There has been disappointment. The little rift has been suffered to npen the way for arrangement.
 I've decided" said man whose long life has been singularly tranquil and satisfactory-''we decided, my wife and l, when we were married, that we would never let the sun go down on any lack of peace between us. We would ask each others pardon, if necessary, but we would never quarrel. One or the other should always give up the point on which both could not agree, and, whatever else came to us, we resolved to have no discord." Beware of the little rift

 C5Y" It is long, very ong, since the re- publican vote of Ohio was so essential to the welfare of the union. It is not unsafe to predict that as goes Ohio in 1893 so will go the union in 1898. It is an epoch-making campaign that is be. ing waged in Ohio. An old-fasbioned republican majority of from 3O,000 to 10000 in Ohio means the tina. settle- ment of more than one vexed question. Such majority, is possible, more than possible-nay, it would be well-nigh certain were the danger of overconfi- dence removed. Inter Ocean.
 S-The United Press report of the efforts to get up joint debate between Mckinley and Neal at Findlay the other night is a good sample of the way in which the news gathered by that association is colored. The re- port was sent from the proof of the Chicago Herald's special from Findlay without change. The matter was written by democrat for a demo- cratic paper, and was given to the United Press as written, being dated Findlay, O., as if it came direct from that town. Needless to say that the dispatch showed up Mr. Neal in the best light, and made it appear that Mckinley was afraid to meet him in debate.-Cleveland Leader.

and back, and the full sleeves mar rowed into cuff of little plaits about the wrists. The guimpe in question has tiny ruffies of white China silk at the throat and wrists for finish. It is simple and childish, and not at all hard to do up." The overdress is of delicate lemon-colored cashmere and harmonizes wonderfully well with the cream-white cape and the bonnie little baby face. One can hardly imagine how beautiful a combination it is till one sees little lassie of four summers right in the middle of it.
 Three yards of material-cashmere is enough, but half yard more will not be too much, as it is always well to have some left over for one of Mir. Stockton's unforeseen contingencies" Two breadths and half make the per fectly plain, full skirt whose only trimming is a broad hem, with per haps feather-stitching of silk that erdctly matches the material. It is not an easy shade to match, and poor match is far from an improvement. The lining of the little waist is simply fitted, round" waist, cut down square ly from the shoulders, leaving just the narrow shoulder straps, and making the square opening for the guimpe. The cashmere is arranged over the lining, perfectly smooth under the arms, but with ample allowance in front and on both sides of the back for the fullness that constitutes the chief charm of the whole dress. Find tho center of the piece of goods that is to make the front of the waist, haste up very broad plait, then cut the outside to fit the lining. That done, you have only to unbaste the plait in the middle and gether the fullness into ruffle at the top between the shoulder-straps, put ting in two or three shirrings, and ar ranging the bottom of the waist after the same fashion, but extending the shirrings only about as far as the little frill at the top extends. Under the arms let it be perfectly plain. The skirt may be gagged with three shir- rings as well, and then the waist and

No Reason Why Woman Should Not Make Her Own.

Women who like to wear srik petti- coats are making new ones. Tho old ones are nearly useless under the new gown skirt; they flop about the ankles, while the gown skirt is standing out in flutes around the bottom. Few of the old petticoats are over two and a quarter or two and a half yards wide, and they have no lining in them, but their rufiies and lace hang in soft, shapeless mass about the feet

national reputation with whom Cleve-
land talked frankly about his plans, as
saying that Cleveland looks on the sill
yer issue as the paramount one in poll
tics, superior even to the tariff, and to
be the first matter settled by
his administration. He considers the
Sherman act a peril to the country and
says it must be repealed before anything
else is done. The cabinet and federal
appointments will be shaped to this end.
Cleveland was astonished that certain
congressman after visiting him to urge
high federal appointments should re-
turn to Washington and endesvor not
only to prevent the repeal of the Sher-
