Hints on Sleeve Taking.

sleeve, and most sleeves have the
serious defect of making the wearer
uncomfortable, no matter what
their style. The first point to re-
member in cutting a sleeve is suffi-
cient length from the elbow to the
point where the sleeve joins the
waist, to allow freedom of movement
to the arms. One must fit the lining
to sleeve before cutting the out
side, to avoid disappointment and
waste of material. One should
always be careful to follow the
weave of the goods, and keep it
exact with the straight line in the
pattern, provided one have sleeve
pattern of reliable make. 1t is i'm
portant to get the exact length from
the bend ON the inside of the arm
to the waist when the arm is bent
outward to save the sleeve from
twisting when finished. The seams
of a sleeve must be pressed open to
set well.
Sleeves must be basted in care
fully before sewing. Try the gar
ment on, pin each seam of the sleeve
into position ON the garment, so
there shall be no pulling or twist
ing, and gather, full, or pleat the
extra width of sleeve into the top
part, according to Fashions behests
for sleeve finish at the shoulder.
One should always hold the sleeve
toward her while basting, and the
sewing may be carefully done upon
the sewing machine with the waist
next the presser foot. The seam
must always be carefully finished
by binding, or sewing the material
of the sleeve into the arms eye and
facing the lining over the raw edge.
Remember always that the set and
wear of a waist depend upon the
workmanship and not upon elegance
of material. Good workmanship
will give inexpensive materials chic
and style, while poor cut and finish
will make fine materials seem in
excusably dowdy and unattractive.
The lining of the sleeve must be
made perfect, when the outside may
be put on bias or after any fancy
design recognized by fashion. Many
dressmakers haste a thin piece of
wadding to the lining from the
shoulder to the elbow when the arm
is thin and ugly, to give firm and
graceful look to the sleeve. Basic
the outside goods over the wadding,
and close the seams of the sleeve,
the same as if the wadding were not
used. In making sleeves close about
the wrist always leave a seam open
at the band about two inches, to
insure getting on and off easily.
This opening may be fastened with
buttons or hooks and eyes. 1t is
always well to line sleeves with silk
| if possible, particularly coat sleeves,
as they slip over all garments of
whatever material so much easier
than when lined with any other
fabric. Aboyeeyery otherconsidera-
ton in making sleeves, remember
to have the elbow come in the right
place. The length of the arm, from
the elbow to the wrist and from the
elbow to the shoulder, must be as
certained before cutting the material.
Never fail to thoroughly press the
seams of a sleeve, for otherwise
they cannot be made to look WE'LL

Birmingham News.
The agitation of female suffrage
has taken a new and Interesting
turn.
Hitherto it's most-ardent advo-
Gates have been what Barney
Gibbs, of Texas, once wittlly
described as ''short-haired wo
men" and .'loag haired mem
individuals as to whom nature had
made a blunder in assigning sex
and who were, therefore, not
representative.
But in the canvass of the pro-
posed amendment to the
Constitution of New York, which
is to give the ballot to woman,
those women who have been
successful as artists, as writer's,
as teachers. lawyers or doctors
and in certain portions of the
commercial field are most perSiS-
tent i'll the demand that the
amendment shall Gbe adopted.
Those women who have dem
onstrated their capacity, not
only to earn a living. but to
achieve distinction in avenues
that a generation ago we're no
thoroughfares to them, may be
expected ito vote as intelligently
as they work.
Right here science comes in
and skaters a fallacy of the ster-
ner sex. Careful and thorough
analyses Of the brain of men
and women show that the female
brain is superior in texture al
though confined to less area than
that of the male-in other words,
what it lacks in quantity it makes
up in quality.
Even, if this were not so, the
opponents of female suffrage
could not plead the superior
intelligence" OF man as the rea-
son why he alone should be al
lowed to vote. The ballot was
put in the hands of the slave
almost as soon as his shackels
were struck off, and we are yet
comforting the right Of franchise
upon foreigners who have not
the slightest knowledge of the
nature and scope of our institu.
lions and manifest no disposition
to learn more of them. Surely
the mothers, wives and sisters OF
the land are equally worthy o.
trust.
To sum up the situation as
gathered from the best lights
the men still doubt that the
masses of the women really de
sire to be enfranchised. Woman
can have the ballot if she vii
ask for it, but she will have tx
talk louder than a whisper.

summation.
WITH the South exporting S12,-
600, 900 of cotton manufactures
and charging it's facilities, es-
pecially to supply the coarser
fabrics, it begins to look as if
New England's supremacy was
doomed. Conditions of the late
depression compelled close econ
omy and the Introduction of Ia
Dor saving appliances. Location,
cheap freights and fuel have i'm
parted a new importance. The
records show that Southern fac
tories increased their consump-
ton last year eighteen thous-
and bales, while Northern
spinners fell away to the extent
Of 265, 900. The Southern mill
with free raw material has an
advantage New England factor
les never can gain, and whether
it be in the fine or coarse grades
the Southern product is rapidly
assuming an Importance and de-
velopment that threatens Sc
riously the ultra protection cen
tres of the North. This is a
phase of the tariff question Sena-
tor Hawley can find nc reason
for in his argument againt grant
ing New England relief.

and men of breadth and power.
Rev. Mr.. FAIRIES in the short
time he has been in our midst

kindliness of bearing, endeared
himself, not only to the people of
his own congregation, but to all
those with whom he has been
thrown in contact; therefore;
these exercises, which are OF
themselves Of much interest,
must gain new interest from the
fact that they have for their OBJ

Debate on the Tariff Bill Continued.

Debate on the Tariff Bill Continued,
WASHINGTON, May 25.-The
Tariff bill was taken up. The
lumber schedule 3D." having
been reached before adjournment
on Saturday, Mr.. Hale offered an
amendment to insert as the first
paragraph of that schedule the
provision of the existing law,
putting a duty of one dollar per
thousand feet on sawed boards,
and on sawed lumber two dollars
per thousand feet, etc. The
amendment initiated the political
debate that has been the usual
preliminary to any action upon
the bill each day since it came
before the Senate.
Mr.. Walsh Dem.+ Ga.) took
the floor and addressed the Sen
/! ate in a carefully prepared speech
in defence of the Tariff bill and
OF the position of the Demo
cratic party on the subject of
tariff. While he was discussing
the income tax, Mr.. Hill rose to
put a question to him; but Mr..
Walsh asked to be- excused, las
this was his first speech in this
august body" and he preferred
not to be interrupted.
At the conclusion of Mr.
Walsh's speech, an amendment
to Hale's amendment was offered
by Mr.. PETER, to put dressed
lumber on the free list and to i'm
pose a duty Of 25 cents per thou
sand feet for each side, planed OF
finished; so cents when tongued
and grooved, and rs cents when
and grooVed.
The debate went on until 5.45
and then the Tariff bill went over
without action on either side OF
the pending amendments.
The paragraph Q76) as re.
ported by the Finance committee
is: Lumber of any sort, planed
or finished, fifty cents per thou.

A Dangerous Proceeding.

There is a case now pending in
the courts of Illinois which illus
trates, or ought to be accepted
as illustrating, the Importance of
that provision of various State
constitutions which is intended
to keep the legislative, execu-
tive, and judicial departments of
the government separate and dis
tinct. 1t is an attempt of the
Republicans to Overturn the dis
tricting of the State for the cleo
ton of members of the Legisla-
ture, which distributing took
placein 1898. The aid of Repub-
lican clerks is invoked in order
to render this scheme successful.
The ground upon which this in
reference with a lawful redis-
tricting of the State is attempted
to be based is the averment that
the Democrats did not district
the State in 1898 in the manner
prescribed by the State Consti-
tuition, which provides that the
legislative districts shall be Of
compact and contiguous terri
tory"
But if corrupt and unprinci-
pied judges can be found in Hi
nois ready to do such work as
that we have mentioned, the
whole fabric of the government
in that State may tumble down.
The last previous reapportion-
ment of representation in Hi
nois, or redistricting of the
State for the election of members
of the Legislature, was-done in
1882 by the Republicans claim
that if the redistricting of 1898
be set aside the law of 1882 and
the redistricting of 1882 will
be revived despite the fact that
in that case, also, the Legislative
district were not made of ''com-
pact and contiguous territory"
What is sauce for the goose is
not to be sauce for the gander, if
the wicked designs Of the Re
publicans of Illinois can be sue
cessfully carried out.
If the redistricting of a State
for the erection of members of a
State Legislature may thus,
years after it is done, be declared
an unconstitutional proceeding,i il
is clear that a redistricting of a
State for the election of mem
bers of the lower House of Con
gross might in like manner be
set aside. If the State judges
can pronounce a redistricting
for the election of members of g
, StatesLegislature an unconstitu
tional proceeding and a SCI
aside that redistricting, it would
seem to follow that a Fed
eral Court could pronounce I'M
constitutional a law redistrictins
the State for the election Of mem.
bers of the lower House of Con
gress. State constitutions pro
vide that each house of the Leg
islature shall be the judge of the
!; elections, qualifications, and re
} turns of it's own members, jus
!. as the Federal Constitution pro
vides that each house of Congress:
/ shall be the judge of the elections
: qualifications, and returns of it,
own members.
: In fact, if this Illinois schem'
be carried out, the consequence
| must necessarily be far-reaching
!: The courts may as well assum'
control of the legislative depart
ment Of the government. HOY
: if the act of 1882 should also b
/ pronounced unconditional? Blu
r enough.-Richmond Dispatch.

Worse Now Than 1t Has Been
i'm Years Past.

LONDON. Jan. 3L-The Pail Mall Ga
zette announces from relia BILE source
that GLADSTONE, on account of advancing
age and the arduous nature of his duties,
has decided to resign before the assem-
bling of Parliament Domestic influences
and deep regret at the rejection of the
home-rule bill are also elements in his
decision.
The story, however. is denied by the
Premier's friends. and Sir Algernon West
who is with Gladstone at Biarritz, has been
auth OriZed to declare that the statement
that Gladstone had decided to resign is
untrue. He is further authorized to say
it is true that many months ago Glad stone s
age and the condition of his sight and hear
fng made ii. in his judgment. desirable that
he be relieved from public care. His ten
ure of Office, which has been liable to in
terruption only from these causes, remains
exactly as before, and Gladstone has not
said or done anything to restrain his free
dom or that Of his colleagues regarding
his future course.
Further than that. Gladstone's secretary
informs the Associated Press that he has
10 information which would lead him to
believe there is any truth in the story that
Gladstone intended to resign.
A letter received from Biarritz, sent by
Herbert Gladstone. says his father is in
splendid health aud full of fight for the
coming session.
