A Railroad Outrage.

one OF the many OutrageS perpetrat
ed by the railroads on the farmers is
the classification of binder Irvine.
In the whole list of articles usually
sent byfreight there is hardly an item
which is more easily handled than
binder Irvine. Being put up in con-
venient packages, there is COMPARE
lively little difficulty in loading a car.
no strength being required, as in the
case OF hardware, etc: there is no
breakage. no serious injury done by
little dampness. no great liability to
fire and no perishable quality about it.
Eastern roads, approaching these
facts, so classify it as to give it the
cheapest freight rate made. How is 1t
with Western roads, those roads which
the farmers have made sacrifices to
build and have supported with large
shipments OF their produce, particu-
larry the very wheat on which this
Irvine is used? These Western roads
classify binder Irvine as second class"
charging next to the highest schedule
rates, next to the charges on bulky
and breakable goods. such as furni-
ture, etc. This rate is Just twice what
it should be.
Another instance of the railroads
injustice to the farmers came to our
attention today. An American Farm
er subscriber wrote, asking the price
on binder Irvine to his town in kan
sas. An inquiry addressed to the rail
road brought the anSwer,"5G cents per
100 pounds in car load lots; less than
car load lots $1.07 per hundred" Thus
it will be seen that while the mer-
chant millionaire pays but Sc cents per
100 pounds. the farmer who wishes to
buy in the same market must pay 81 O..
per hundred pounds.
OF course we have Board Of Inter
state Commerce Commissioners whose
duty it is to see to these things: but
do they do it? Hardly. There are not
'attorneys fees" enough coming into
their pockets from the farmers for
them to trouble themselves about dis
elimination against the farmers. and
if they did. our plutocratic courts
would not sustain them We have,
too, a secretary of agriculture who
might we'll look to these things. but
will he?
We would suggest that our readers
write him, asking him if he can not
through congress or otherwise, devise
a remedy. Address j. Sterling Nor

heart in the work. He knows what is
right and he sees it can not be accomp-

Law not only makes money, but the
law also protects in any man title to
his property. Take away the statutes,
or respect for them, and of what value
would be Rockefeller's ownership of
all the oil lands? Or the railroad rob
bers the ownership of the iron public
ways? The law can do all this, but
can't make money. My brother, do a
little thinking foryourself.-The Com

Eager to Firnre as Cnrnses.

Among the curiosities of taste the Pa
risian passion for self exhibition at the
morgue must hold a conspicuous place.
The principal keeper at the morgue is said
to have had many applications from per-
sons eager to figure as corpses on the slabs
of the deadhouse. They were deferred by
the official announcement that the tempera-
ture Of the bodies was kept some degrees
below zero. If this discomfort could have
been endured for IL hours, and if the au-
thorities could have been persuaded to lend
themselves to such fraud, what materials
for coup in journalism would have been
afforded to some enterprising geniusl-San

generally sorviccable. 1t is n mistake to
wear white silk pctticont except under
evening dress, for one hours wear under
street gown will destroy its beauty and
freshness forever and soiled silk Is the
acme of vulgarity. Muslin and cambria
pctticonts are the only admissible white
ones for ordinary wear since they alone
can be changed frequently and laundercd
successfully.
Muslin skirts and other underwear are
sold at such low prices now that there is
no excuse for any woman who has not an
ample supply of such garments. 1t is not
essential that they be Of fine material or
deliberately trimmed, although even the
least expensive articles have usually some
sort of ornamentation. The main thing is
to have plenty of them, keep them in good
order and have them well laundercd,
Many wealthy women inclined to plump
ness buy the plaincst Undertaking TO be
found i'm order to avoid the fluff and full
ness that would be caused by trimming.
Hand embroidered French goods Of oX-
tremely plain cut may be obtained at a
moderate price and are often worn by large
women who prefer some sort of decoration
to perfectly plain finish.
Some of the new articles of nCckwcar
are really charming in effect. One lately
seen consisted Of finely iettcd round yoke
with standing collar and black gauze.
The lower edge of the yoke was cut in sew
eral large points and bordcrcd with full
double frill Of the satin striped gauzc,
very finely plated. Black mousseline de
sole, crepe de chine and other thin black
goods are much employed for these becom-
ing adjuncts and are often combined with
tinted or white lace.

can do this to perfection, so that the gown
looks as If it We're made to order, and the
charges are very moderate compared with
those to which we are accustomed here.
There is one objection to ready made
garments that holds good everywhere-
that is, somebody else is sure to have some
thing similar-but as the ambition of
great many women is to look like other
people" this is evidently not universally
considered drawback Besides a Pari-
sian woman is very clever at adding a
bow here and bit of lace there, which, al
though but the work of "a moment, gives
her gown an individuality and distin-
guishes it as being personal to herself for
no two women win make exactly the same
changes or add touches of just the same
color.
An American woman who wishes to APP
pear trim and fashionable expects to pay
at least 500 for IA neat and well made wool
en- street costume prettily trimmed and al
tered to fit her. In Paris walking gown
of about the same grade may be obtained
for half the money, while evening dresses
are equally reasonable in price. 1t is quite
as possible to spend great deal of money
for "A gown there as here, but it is not as
necessary. Famous Partisan modistcs and
tailors charge tremendously, but one can
dress very well there without employing
them, while here "A good dressmaker is u
rarity at any except AN eXtravagant price.
An illustration is given Of gown Of old
rose china silk lowered with black. The
bottom Of the plain skirt has narrow

straps. The round bodice is gathered in at
the waist under pointed girdle of black
gauze closing with sash ends at the side.

terminate in u floucc of guipure. The hat
