Children are apt 10 find the quiet OF
Sunday tedious, unless the mother takes
pains to make the day enjoyable. That
there should be q difference felt by the
little ones, from the time they are old
enough to notice such things and as
they grow up. between the everyday
affairs of the week and the n day OF
rest. is accepted as right and just by
most thoughtful mothers. Yet it is not
wise to forbid little children TO play on
Sunday, play being as natural to them
as to other young creatures. Kittens,
lambkins, kids. frisk about and exercise
their young limbs. and so. too, should
the children, unchecked and unreproved.
Yes, even on Sundays let the little ones
play.
Still, the play may be quieter. and not
quite like that of the weekday. In q
certain closet of q certain home, where
the children are very happy and are
developing beautifully, there are toys
for Sunday, never used on any other
day, and therefore coming forth with .
zest of novelty when the sacred day re-
turns. Lately, too. a wise woman, long
accustomed to infant-school teaching
and skilled in kindergarten methads,h has
invented a set Of Bible toys, in the shape.
easily adjustable, of ladders, stars. and
other devices. by which, while playing
games. the children are taught the
beautiful old Bible stories, as fascinat-
ing 10 the childish ear Us stories from
Homer or from OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES o. the
Garden of Eden. Of the deluge, Of
Joseph. of Samson, of Gideon. of Samuel.
of David and Goliath. of Solomon and
Josiah, and, coming to later times. the
wonderful stories of the New Testa-
ment. These cards and cords. reversi-
BILE, and printed in clear type. are .
charming addition to the nursery store
of games.
There should be a bright atmosphere
| about the house on Sunday. II Ought
10 be a gala-day. because 1t is often the
only day in which papa and the babies
can make each others acquaintance
with any freedom. Many men are
obliged to 60 to business so early, and
thew return from it so late. that the
children are asleep at both ends OF the
tlay, and papa is necessarily somewhat
n stranger to their lives and interests.
The Sunday breakfast should be later.
the Sunday dinner more leisurely, than
ON other days. and as a treat the little
ones ought to be allowed to sit up
longer on Sunday night. If there Is .
| dessert the little ones like very much.
then have that on Sunday. and II ever
candy is allowed. let Sunday afternoon
be the time for il. In homes where the
mother can play and sing, the children
should have their hour Of song ON sum
tiay-an hour TO remember in otheI
years and in later life. --HGrper's Bcsas.

Women Carrying Dot the Fad for Mnla
Attire--wonderfui Color and Fabric.
According TO q fashionable woman's
tailor recently interviewed, lots OF
women are wearing trousers at homo
nowadays, society girls secretly dom
ming the costume of the sterner sex
with great regularity in the ~seclusion
of boudoir and bedroom. 1t is also
quite common for them to wear the
bifurcated garments when calling on
each other. Only the more daring OF
the girls have as yet had the trousers
cut in the same way as those worn by
their fathers and brothers, the majority
~contenting themselves with wearing
inexpressibles so loose as 10 deceive
the eye at a first glance. Others have
each leg Of the garment gathered at
the ankle In pretty much the way to
be seen In pictures representing
oriental women. Some of the girls are
wearing trousers of the most wonder
full hues In their own rooms The
fabrics they are made of are just as
wonderful as the colors woven In them.
During the warm spells they are made
of the richest China silks with weird
and most remarkable flowers upon a
background OF the daintiest blue and
other hues. These trousers are never
intended to be seen by the male eye.
Another and by far more attractive
male attire for the ladies il a pair of
tight.ftting garments OF blue, black
and f~awn-colored broadcloth. These
trousera ire also made of velvet and of
heavy silk. Sometimes they are cut
short at the knee, and others extend
down to the heels Of the dainty slipper,
just exposing an inch or w of variegat-
ed colored hose.
These and similar cccentricities of
apparel are not at all rare among
eastern girls. One Of these, living In
Brooklyn, was interviewed the other
day by a reporter for the Citizen and
in the course of a hat said frankly:
IL always wear trousers in my own
room. They are so much more com-
Portable than loose wrappers. Awrap-

modified the extreme demands of our plat form It is true that some portions of his letter may tend to bear that construction. It was not that bold, ringing and explicit declaration in favor of the platform which Lis party had a right to expect, but was regarded by many Rs timid, cautious and conservative but whether this criticism Is or Is not well founded the fact remains that he had no power or authority to change or alter one line or sentence or provision of the national platform which had been deliberately adopted in national convention duly assembled. No president gan bc above his party; no president can dictate to his party; no president can change his party platform.
 But no matter what idea it may he claimed was intended to be conveyed in his letter of acceptance in mitigation or mod iiication of the platform, therc can Dc no doubt as Co the president position at this time upon this essential principle of free raw materials. Let me road from that rc- markabls letter of the president which was yesterday submitted to tho house of representatives. It expresses better than l can hope to do tho true, sound and logical position of the Democratic party upon this | question.
 On the President's Letter. After reading extracts from this letter | Mir. Hill went on as follows:

 have been indiscreet, it may operate as [
 flrcbrand to spread the flames of discorI

 cedc, upon questions of public and part, | policy. It may widen the breach alread,
 existing in this senate, and in that view |
 may Do regarded as unfortunate and Il

 statcsmanship and conoiliation rathe
 than rccrimination, donunciation and ay

 of Its ncro cxpedicncy, l am hero to dc
 fend the presidents letter in far as | demands that the party shall not bc le'
 astray into the violation of Dcmocrati
 pledges and principles.
 Upon the question of free raw material the president Is right, and you know it
