Enamcl Is the style.

Enamel has been coming well to The
front for some time past. The elegant.
delicate necklets of fine gold and
enamel which were worn sixty years
ago or more are treasures now, for
they are in fashion. The dials of the
bracelet watches arc often enameled
red, and one of the most fashionable
of ladies' hair ornaments is an enamel
butterfly The wings of this gorgeous
insect arc of white enamel, with mark
ings given in different colored enamels
and spots represented by large brill
liants. The body is Of emerals or ru-
bies.-Chicago Tribune

PLANTS m THE HOUSE.
A bit OF Green More Effective Than f,
ciS.1. frnruifura.

A BIT OF Green More Effective Than Ex-
pcnsiyc Furniture.
There are some homes which dis
tictiyely impress themselves on the
minds of the visitor as being abodcs of
artistic refinement and comfortable
elegance. They need {, not be extrava-
gantly furnished, and yet there is some
thing about them that appeals to the
nicest sense as soon as the front door
is opened.
When called upon to analyze this
peculiar beauty it resolves itself into
the conclusion that such place is
swecter and better than others because
at every turn one meets with bits OF
living green that serve to make it
peculiarly attractive.
Where the stairs turn is set a plump
little jar, with a growing palm that
spreads out its inviting leaves to the
one who Journeys upward. In the hall
near the settle is rubber plant, bright
and CHEEKY, its greenness seeming to
smile welcome to the visitor, and on
the dining-room table in neat little
silver circle are few ferns that
breathe the beauty of the summer
woods through all the long hours Of
the winter.
Wherever plants are introduced there
comes a touch of beauty that the cost
lest bit of bric-a-brac or the most ex-
pensive painting never produces. Win
dow boxes filled with the quaint old
tilucy geranium, and their bright bios
SONS give an air of cherry comfort to
room that leaves it's impression upon
the mind of all those both in and out
side of the apartment.
Such bits of adornment are not eX-
pensive, and require but little care to
keep in vigorous and healthy growth.
The attention necessary for them is in
itself beneficial, and should not be
given over to the charge of servants
TO cut off the dry leaves, to sec that
sufficient water is given and to pro-
tect them from the cold at night should
be the duty of the mistress of the
house or one of those who have q
rightful claim upon the home as their
abode.
Though rigid economy must needs
be practiced the introduction of a sim
gle plant will give an air of luxury,
and if to this is added blithe little
canary in It's cage, there will come to
one that honey feeling that can not
be defined, but which makes itself SO
keenly felt.-Kansas City Times.

n1rs. Lease Ont of oncc.

TOPEKA. Kan. Dee a0.-Gov. Level
ling Thursday removed Mrs. Mary d.
Lease from the state board of charities.
She objected to the appointment Of q
democrat in one. of the state institu-
tions, and said he would have to remove
him or she would go. The governor
promptly wrote an order removing her
from office. 1t created a big sensation
in the populist party, and she says she
will see to it that the leaders are shown
up before the people. She said that
her removal was made because she
WAS opposed to the populists fusing
with She democrats.

Surprise Party.

Last Tuesday evening the residence OF
j.. ii. Whited was the scene of a very
pleasant surprise party given in honor
OF Miss Bessie Whited and Miss Mildred
Rankin her cousin who is here on a visit
from Normal, Ill. The c~ommodious
house was taxed TO its utmost capacity
by the young people who attended.
Each gentleman was presented with Il
b~uttonhole boquet of white flowers tied
with a bunch of scarlet ribbon. The
evening was pleasantly spent in listen
ing to a varied programme OF instru-
mental and vocal music, and a game of
progressive euchre. The progressive
was won by Mrs. Theo. Wetmore, the
ace prize by Miss Belle Budden and the
BOBBY prize by w. Van Horn. Ice
cream and cake followed and it was
about midnight when the guests retired.
Mr.. and Mrs. j.. ii. Whited's hospitality
is prove-bial and the evening was one
of thorough enjoyment to all. 1t was
fitting too, for the young people, to find
a perfect moonlight night for the prom
enade home. Among those present We
noted:
Misses Bessie Whited, Mildred Rankin

a Denver dispatch to The Chicago Inter
Ocean quotes T. c. Henry, formerly the
"Wheat King of Kansas, but now Of Col
orado, as saying that middle and western
Kansas Is utterly ruined Hs said he
had just returned from a tour Of the
state and that four hfths Of the popula-
ton had already abandoned their homes;
that farmers used to borrow money to
tide over calamity years, but now no loan
company would place dollar on Kan
sas farm. If ali of Mr. Henry's State
ments are as far fran the truth as the
last one, there is certainly little in them
worthy of belief. There j. not the least
difficulty in borrowing eastern money on
Kansas farms. The loan agencies ia
this city are ready and anxious to place
money on farm security and at us reason
able rates as have ever been offered 1t
may be said with some truth that they
are not hunting for loans on city prop

All rest in my best Sunday cIo'es.

The paper has peeled by the roll.
And long. in my tumult OF feeling.
I've imperfIed my immortal soul
I'm poor married bachelor fellow.

And gracious and happy and mellow
Is a failures failure complete
And there's nothing for me but vexation
And worry and trouble and doubt
