WILL BEAR. WATCHING.

Senator OConnor. OF Broome County.
has nice, clean little joker before the
Senate thus early in the session.
1t will be remembered that Gov. Flower
has been vigorous in his efforts 10 cor
rect the abuse of loose expenditures In
State asylums. Under the state care
act the state Lunacy Commission has
the power to revise and approve the
estimates at such institutions. deter
mined and angry opposition was made
against the law by the asylum trustees,
and II political combination was formed
to defeat It. But the act was secured,
and in the first six months under the
new regulation the Commission saved
the State about twenty-seven thousand
dollars.
The movement against the old system
was prompted as much by the belief that
the inmates OF the asylums did not re-
celve the benefit of the expenditures as
that the expenditures were excessive.
Last Tuesday night-such bills are
generally introduced at night sessions
Ser ator O'Connor introduced little bill
supposed to be intended to allow the
Superintendents OF State asylums TO
expend as much as $1,000 FOR contn-
gencies without making a detailed state
| ment OF itemr. In fact, the bill Il
found to sweep away the provisions OF
the present law, requiring the super
vision OF all estimates by the Lunacy
Commission, and to put back the power
OF expenditure wholly into the hands OF
the Superintendcnts again.
Senator O'Connor Is a trustee of tn,
Binghamton Asylum.
Gov Flower will not give such bill

Hounchold Hints.

Poor cooking utensils are never cheap.
no matter how little you pay for them.
Warm mutton suet applied to cold
sores will soothe the pain, allay the in
fammation and soon cause them to dis
appear.
A settle is comfortable thing about
the kitchen, as 1t can be used for many
purposes and yet do its best service cu
ironing days.
Individual salt cellars are again In
use. instead OF the salt shakers that
have been popular for so many years
They come in glass. silver or china. and
small silver salt spoon is placed BY
each one.
Nothing in the way Of linen lasts
longer than the halfbleached damask,
and 1t Is good economy to buy 1t, for
in a few months 1t will bleach to
snowy whiteness and will not grow yell
low when laid away as quickly as the
fully bleached will do.

POLITICAL OPERA B0UFFE.

1t Is "as good as a play" as the say
ing Is, to watch the politicians. Two
years ago the Democrats stole our State
Senate and the Republicans were indig-
nant. This year the Republicans steal
the Legislature and the Democrats are
shocked. To-day the Democrats take
forcible possession of the New Jersey
Senate. and the Republicans are scan
dalized A few years ago the Republ-
cans seized and barriCadel State
House and the Democrats were dis
gusted.
To-day the State Senate at Albany, with
Republican majority, resolves TO adopt
II closure rule To prevent the obstruction
OF legislation by the Democratic mi
norty and the Democrats rail. At
Washington the National Senate. with u
Democratic majority. proposes to adopt
closure rule to prevent "A factious
blockade OF legislation by the Republi-
can minority, and the Republicans
rave
When Tom Reed was Speaker, Re
publicanism was horrihed by the lack
OF patriotism, dislnterested statesman
ship and public spirit in Democratic Rep
rescntatives, who interruuted the bust
ness OF Congress by flbustering and
refusing to vote Now that Crisp is
Speaker. Democracy is amazed at the
revolutionary spirit manifested by Re
publican Representatives. who. under
Tom Reeds lead nlibuster and refuse
TO answer to their names in order 10
leave the House without a quorum and
stop action on important public meas
urcs.
Really. politicians are a funny set OF
farceurs and their performances are as
comical as opera bouffe.

Smiles and GrinH Differ.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
II Lord Chesterfield would consult Webster's
Dictionary he would hnd that smiles are "cx-
prcssons OF respect and esteem.' and grins, 'and
closing OF teeth, and drawing back OF the lips
for the purpose OF showing the teeth The
phrase Smiles passed around walters does
not indicate to me that the man who used 1t
In reference to woman can be gentleman.
He may raise his hat from until "dooms-
day" but Join Maggie Flynn in saying that a
smile without such mere form is far preferable.
The raising OF the hat is, In very few cases. done
for anything more than show. Many know
lust how gracefully they can salute women, and
for that reason they salute few men smile
at me when l meet them they do not neglect the

Hnir Dressing and M.rr,,s.

The distinction between married ana
single Russian peasant women is shown
In the arrangement Of the hair. The
married women are never seen without
coronet-shaped headdress, while young
women simply dress the hair in two long
braids down the back; on festive otca-
sions the ends are tied with bright rib
bons. During warm weather the head IL
seldom covered, but occasionally q bright
handkerchief may be seen picturesquely
arranged over the glossy braids. The
outdoor garment of the women in Sum-
mer is a long, loose sack. made of some
dark material; In Winter cloth Is sub
stituted. The shoes worn are the same
as those of the men.
