The first thing one notices In the fancy

way. worthy OF consideration. Under this
fell a loose blouse OF spanish valcnclennes

bust, and banded at neck aud wrists with
brown mink tails. Little pointed Guns and
a collar OF turquoise velvet turned over
this, ard at the slight belt and poeplng
out from the waist was a roll OF gold coll

cascade caught on as carelessly as would
be torn cobweb on towering rose bush
and the whole was a hewitching fnnt Isle.
Another bodice on the same order had a
round yoke formed In rowa OF at least four
different designs In jet. The body Itself

TIE RAILROAD PROBLEM.

The managers of the railways of the
country are themselves responsible for
the existence of the railway problem"
which is one of the many economic
questions pressing forward for solution.
Had they and the promoters Of these
enterprises beem content with ordinary
business methods and rules; had they
conducted their business as. for in
stahce. the great wholesale business OF
the country is conducted, or as the
farmers OF the country have conducted
theirs, there would be no perplexing
necessity of doing something with the
roads by governmental action now
bothering men and ''getting into poll
tics"
kapaci0us men have used them to
amass fortunes extorted from the public
or by frauds OH trusting investors. The
rule of freight rates has been ''all the
traffic will BEAR" the circumstances
and protests of the public have been met
with "the public be damned" When
states sought to euro them by enact.
ment they asserted that their charters
were contracts made invioIate by the
Dartmouth college case. They have
fought every bill designed to check
them. and carried to the court Of last
resort every law passed for that pur-
pose where they could not defeat 1t by
bribery OF corrupt legislators. Thus
they have forced the railway problem
on the minds of the people. They are
themselves only to blame; and. what
ever comes. theirs is the responsibility.

And whole barrelfuls of bitters. and whole

She'd been troubled with miasma, and choked

And been shaken for month or two with
ague and witllch!lls.
She had had the yellow fever, Of which moth
ing could relieve her,
And the rheumatism famed her SO she could
not go about
And she groahed with tonsilitis. aud the
most acute bronchitis;
And she suffered endless fortunes from
.winges of the govt.
She had tlied old school physicians Christian
scientists. magicians,
indian doctors, electricians aud magnetic

And drank tons of nasty liquor. but grew
