Floor Coverings.

Art squares are very pretty with the
stained floor, oiled or waxed, showing
beyond but if one has an "all over"
carpet it is capable of many renova-
tions to which an art square could never
adapt itself. If the width in front of the
fire is more worn than the rest, it can be
ripped off and put ON the other side of the
room, or under some furniture. The re-
cess pieces will serve for many a repair,
and if the figures are made to match
the mending is scarcely to be seen. 1t is
far better to cut ragged place out and
set in piece across the width, match
ing the pattern and joining neatly, for
a patch has a poor and clumsy look.

That of all known agents to accomplish
this purpose, Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets

once used they are always in favor. Their
secondary effect is to keep the bowels open

the case with other pills. Hence their great
popularity with sufferers from habitual con-
stipation, piles and indigestion.

Straight and Curly Hair.

1t is pretty generally known that straight
hair is due to the lead pencillike round
ness of the individual hairs, while curly
hair is composed of fat, separate hairs that
warp together after the manner of shay
ings. Another fact regarding the struc-
ture of the separate hairs was recently re
vealed by close microscopic examination
made in this city. The long, uncut, frayod
or split ends were discovered to be pre-
hensile flaments, and when kept long
enough in position against the skin these
took thrifty root, forming loops on the
throat of microscopic, who made him

AN INDEPENDENT ESTIMATE OF
SENATOR HILL.


I"lndependcnt," in the November Forum.l
Mr.. Hill is man OF great intelligence,
whose character depends upon circum-
stances. \ clever newspaper writer
once compared MIR. Hill with Jay Gould,
saying could s purposeIs the accumu-
lation Of wealth. Hills is the obtaining
of political power. And for twenty-five
years there has been no thought or action
of his life which has not been centered
in his purpose"
AS for Senator Hill himself, he has
reached the zenith of his spectacular and
artificial political career. He has no
moral resources. A product of machine
politics, his career may at any time be
closed by the same artificial forces that
have made it; nothing is less secure than
machlne-bui success.
But there is one question of greater
importance than his political future-the
question of the survival of the Demo-
cratic party as political instrument of
utility. Now whether it be desirable
that the Democratic party should sur
vive as an active and respectable force,
is matter of permissible difference of
opinion. But there can be no difference
of Independent opinion regarding the
certainty of its defeat for many year in
contests for control of the national COY
eminent, if it mistake Senator Hills
artificial success for craftsmanship; and
In proportion as Democratic orators
and newspapers throughout the country
encourage him, or even tolerate him, do
they give evidence of their party's old
time infirmity. And the Democratic
party has not such reputation for wis
dom that it can afford to make an un.
necessary display of ignorance; NOT
has it so firm grasp on great principles
that it can afford to slip one inch from
its already insecure hold on them.
Least of all can the party afford to fol
low the one man in its ranks who has II
the most spectacular way repudiated its
pledges to tarili-reform, whereupOn i
won its only victories within the life
time of generation. The tariff reform
tide was the last tide in national politics
The next will be tide of municipal re
form. As Senator Hill is the only Demo
cratic senator who voted against tn,
party's single great principle, so he il
the most conspicuous and successful pro
duet Of corruption il municipal politics
II the cities Of the State of New YOrl
had not been governed corruptly as the,
have been, no such career as Mr.. Hill
would have been possible. \ small
municipal boss himself, it has been b,
the help of the municipal bosses whom
he has served that he has prospered.
Every thoughtful man knows that tn,
three subjects of political vitality nov
before us are the tariff, the currency
and municipal government 1t is yer,
unfortunate for the Democratic part
that its most conspicuous personality is
man without convictions on any of thes
subjects, and who has done violence t.
right thinking and right conduct regard
ing all three of them. Mr.. Hills caree
Is important, therefore, as measure o
the stupidity and the criminal tendencie
of the Democratic party. 1t revives tn
old question whether the party can eve

NOVELTIES in FABRICS.
Light Weight Feature of WOODEN Goods.


Irish Puptins Revivcd-New silks.
The now woolcns for autumn dresses
commend themselves by their exceed
ingly light weight. This ightness is q
feature of various goods--as camel's
hair, ladies' cloth, covert cloth and
crepon-and is a great boon to the
wcaror, as skirts of dresses are now so
generally lined and interlined that they
become too heavy for comfort even in
midwinter il made Of weighty fabrics.
Plain colors, mixtures of two or thrco
colors and clouded effects are among the
new goods. Small figures are preferred
to large. Narrow stripes lengthwise,
bayadere and diagonal, neat checks or
blocks and some plaids are shown in
dull and in bright colors, though not in
Scotch tartans The peculiar blue called
bluct appears in all materials, and there
are many bronze shades with green
prevailing in some and brown in others
The newest materials are double
stuffs, two fabrics woven together, yet
scarcely heavier than summer goods.
Thus the outside is of crcpon, puckered
or in cross stripes, attached to a back
ground of entirely different weaving,
which holds the puffy raised crepon de-
sign in permanent place. The back is
usually black and is in loose canvas
weaving. These stuffs come in all the
new blue shades and green, in violet,
purple and in ruby and purplish reds.
1t is rumored that Irish poplins are to
/ be revived for winter dresses, especially
| for skirts to be worn with various waists
in the way MORE has been this season.
/ For tailor gowns are neat mixtures Of
silk and wool, with tiny dots or stitches
of silk of bright color showing on a
smooth wool surface.
The now list of silks begins with black
of various weaving, as black is ut pres
ent chosen by women of fashion, and is
always worn by those of small means.
Satins and pcau de sole of satin weave,
with domiluster, are the most reliable
plain black silks. There is a tendency,
however, to fancy weaving to stripe.
and figured silks.
A soft black silk of moderate price
called aroguct, or druggct. has extreme
ly small designs of colors, some merely
lance, or speclled with color whilc
others have tiny sprigs of brilliant hucs
Reppcd silks with brilliant luster are
