HE INTERESTINGLY URGES ALL DEMOCRATS
TO WORK FOR TARIFF REFORM
Washington April 22.-The following letter from
President Cleveland Chauncey T. Black. presi-
dent of the National Association Of Democratic
Clubs, is self-explanatory:
Executive Mansion.
Washington April Is, 1891
Hon. Chauncey r Black President etc.
Ny Dear Sir / have carefully read the communl-
cation you lately placed in my hands, setting forth
the future purposes and present needs Of the Ma
tlonal Association of Democratic Clubs
The achievements OF this organization should be
familiar al who are interested In the continue
ton Democratic supremacy. and should enlist
the encoure cement Of those who appreciate the i'm
portance OF an effective dissemination OF Demo-
cratic doctrine.
eating our people touching the particular subjects
which are recognized belonging 10 the Demo
cratic faith: but II seems 10 me that It's best
vice has been enforcement and demonstration Of
the truth that our party Is best organized and most
powerful when 1t strives for principles instead Of
Spoils and that II quickly responds 10 the stimulus
supplied by enlistment in the peoples cause.
This Acknowledgement OF the Important services
suggests that the National Association Of Demo-
cratic Clubs and every other Democratic agency
should labor increasingly and earnestly TO save
our party. in this line Of Its power and RESPONSE
ure to redeem the pledges upon which fellow
coun,rymen intrusted us with the control OF their
Government.
marty with the redemption OF these pledges should
now be impressively reminded that won our
way 10 victory under the banner OF tariff reform.
so our lnsstance upon that principle is the con1i-
ton OF our retention OF the peoples trust: and the
feaity 10 party organization demands the subor-
dlnation Of individual advantages AMI wishes and
the putting aside OF petty and ignoble jealousles

How TO Buy a Horse.

An old horseman says: - II you want to
buy a horse don't believe your own
brother. Take no mans word for it.
Your eye is your market. Don't buy ii
horse in harness. Unhitch him and take
everything off but his halter and lead him
around. If he has corn or is stiff, or
has any other falling you can see it. Let
him 90 by himself always, and if he slaves
right into anything you know that he is
blind. No matter how clear and bright
his eyes are, he can't see any more than II
bat. Back him, too. Some horses show
their weakness or tricks in that way when
they don't in any other. But. be as smart
rs you can, you'll get caught sometimes
Even an expert gets stuck. \ horse may
look ever SO nice and go great pace, and
yet have fits. There isn't man who could
tell it until something happens. Or he
may have weak back. Give him the
whip and off he gees for II mile or two
then all of a sudden he stops on the road
After Il rest he starts again but he soon
stops for good, and nothing but il derrick
can start him.
1.-The weak points of ii horse can be bet
ter discovered while standing than while
moving If he is sound he will stand
firmly and squarely on his limbs without
moving them, with legs plump and natur-
ally poised; or if the foot is taken from
the ground and the weight taken from
it, disease may be suspected, or at least
tenderness, which is the precursor of dis
ease. If the horse stands with his feet
spread apart, or straddlcs with his hind
legs, there is Il weakness in the loins and
the kidneys are disordered. Heavy pulling
bends the knees. Blush, milky cast eyes
in horses indicate moon blindness or some
thing else. A bad tempered one keeps his
cars thrown back; Il kicking horse is apt
to have SCARED legs; a stumbling horse
has blcmished knees. When the skin is
rough and harsh. and does not move easily
to the touch. the horse is Il heavy cater
and digestion is bad. Never buy a horse
whose breathing organs are at all inn
paired. Place your ear at the heart, and
if Wheeling is heard it is an indication
of trouble

a Pretty Finish For Household Linen.
Cut Work and Cross stitch Popular.

The great variety to be had in lace
braids has tempted ladies to turn them
to account for making wide cdgings Tor
trimming tcacloths, the upper edges OF
sheets and for other articles of household
linen.
Some Of the prettiest of linen embroid-
cries are traced in design resembling
old French brccadc. There arc pale pink
or blue stripes among which Irvine branch
ing sprays of small flowers.
Tea cozies IRE now often made Of silk
and trimmed with lunches of artificial
flowers. A novel feature is that they arc
cut and shaped to fit tho teapot exactly.
An attractive work consists of ccru net
resembling mosquito net, upon which are
applique flowers and leaves cut from ere
tonne. These are effectively arranged and
are intended to be vcined and outlined
with ColoIcd silks and gold thread.
Fine braid and cord arc appearing or
linen tea cloths and sidcboard slips in
combination with buttnnholc stitch work
I'd with white or colorCd thread. Part OF
the background is frequently cut away, 50
shat an effect is produced like that OF
coarse guipurc
, For pgrambulator covers cloth Is much
used, ornamcntod with scrolls and open
work patterns cut out in lighter shade
of the same color rs the background. This
applique is intendcd to be outlined with
ano cord, silk or gold thread.
Dainty nightdrcss cases are made of
pale blue batste, ornamentcd with small
scrolls and sprays Of lace, which is often
ecru in color. The edges of the Hap are
finished with accordion plated batistc.
