The little girls who go 10 school are
the most affected by storms and otnef
unpleasant things about the weather.
Rain or shine they are at their post
because they are anxious TO keep up
their standing. II is small wonder that
their little dresses wear out rapidly, TOT
wet weather and flooded streets are the
ruin OF clothes. So when mothers are
dismissed TO complain OF their daughters
careiessness. let them remember that IL

we are not eNpOseu 10 the ih'iSi'iV''0'''
of the elements.
In any case the little dresses do not re-
oulre much material. and they are easily
replaced The dressmaking bill is the
largest item IN estimating the cost ana
II one could DO away with this expense
the little girls could have several dresses
instead OF the one which they are often
reproached for soiling. Many FASHION
able mother prefers 10 make her own
daughters dresses-at least while she re-
mains a child. There is no fancy work
daintier than the little tucked and en-
bro:der@d frOcks which little children
wear from the ages OF two 10 five. Then
come the merino dresses in colors, which
are so prettlly trimmed in rows of narrow
velvet ribbon.

dimities and iawns-all trimmed with the
finest, sheerest embroidery. The en-
brolderies are remarkable feature Of
the spring and summer goods. There are
some which partake so much Of the
qualities of both that il IS difficult To
say whether they are embroderies or
insertions. These have two finished edges
and are put on like bands OF insertion.
These trimmings will simplify the pro-
cess of making dresses very much and

We have met with nothing I'm a long
time which was quite as little as Mr..
Fryes assault upon Mr.. Cleveland for
ending a letter to President Dole. of
Hawaii. with the sentence MAY God

Willis had instructions TO undo the wrong
our minister and marines had done. If
it could be accomplished without force

liar significance to be attached to Mr..
Clevelands use of the formula MAY God

ignorance by his remarks For many
centuries European kings have been in

SHALL VOTERS SEE THE BALLOT
RON

II IS almost incomprchensible how fair
minded men can oppose the bill for pro-
noting purity in elections which Mr.. Blu
ford has brought before the Legislature
But # is absolutely incomprehensible how
any one can speak Of it as Mr.. Boykin,
Of Isle Of Wight, did on Wednesday in
opposing il. as a bin intended to make
"a radical innovation in the existing cleo
ton laws" one Of the provisions is that
the ballot-box shall be kept in plain view
of the voters during the whole time OF
the voting, and the other provision Is that
as soon as the voting is over two members
from each Of the opposing political parties
to be selected by the Judges OF election,
shall be present with the officers Of cleo
ton to see the ballots taken out Of the
box, counted and compared with the
poi-book, the book which contains the list
Of those who have voted. How these Tr0-
visions can operate otherwise than in the
interest Of fairness and an honest election
ii Is impossible TO imagine. How hey
can be radical innovations in the exist
ing election laws" unless those laws are
intended as a screen for fraud. IL is equal
~ difficult TO imagine. In the interest Of
fairness and justice the bills should be-
come laws
