was elected on a platform that declar-

plainest terms and Mitch didn't raise
a single objection either to the action
taken or the plank adopted. Is it

Your Physical Condition

Needs attention at this time. If you
are tired, weak and nervous, it is clear
that your blood is impure, and with
out doubt there has been too much
over-work or strain on brain and
body. The course of treatment for
such condition is plain and simple.
The blood must first be purified 80
that the nervous system, and in fact
all the organs will be fed upon pure,
blood Intelligent people without
number have testified that the best
blood purifier, nerve tonic and
strength imparting medicine is Hoods
Sarsaparilla. Nervousness, loss OF
sleep and general debility all vanish
when hoods Sarsaparilla is persist
emily taken; in word, health and
happiness follow after taking Hoods
Sarsaparilla.

Origin Of the Blouse.

After the fall Of the Roman en-
pire the sexes started about fair in
the matter of clothes. Our Teutonic
ancestors adopted a costume which
was almost the same for men and
women, and consisted of two main
garments, the Roman tunica and
toga The tunica was virtually a
shirt with long sleeves, and was
buckled at the waist. The men wore
it reaching to the knee and the
women to the ankles. In colder
northern ATTITUDES the men, as a
great innovation, added trousers,
but these were looked upon in the
light of distinct extra, and were
not considered obligatory in hot
weather. There seems to be no
doubt that the blouse of the modern
peasant is direct descendant of the
tunica. -Lippincott's Magazine.

John D. Rockefeller Takes Life Free
and Easy.
l never saw a man take life less
seriously than John D. Rockefeller.
He has an easy way OF saying and
doing things that appeals to the
esthetic nature. That $1,000, 900
suit brought by Lon Merritt is not
costing him wink of sleep. Moth
ing worries him, not all his millions.
At times / have known John to seem
dull. I have known people to take
him for a soft, slow, stupid fellow
instead of the hard, gliding, firm,
rocky fellow that he is. He once
had an employee, nervous, irritable
young man, full of his own impor-
lance, but, withal, capable clerk.
He occupied an Office in which there
was one of those pulling and lifting
machines, and regularly every
morning, about nine, when he was

last, unable to stand it longer, re-
marked, with considerable heat and
fireworks, to the inoffensive but
annoying stranger: "How do you
expect me to do my work properly

Pretty Things for womens Wear
In Warm Weather.
Stockings, Gloves and Shoes That VIII BE

Stockings for the spring will be
very, very pretty. All of the black
silk stockings have embroidered in
steps in bright colors, or are made
with open lace work, and one of the
decided novelties is to have stripes
of embroideryon the stocking length
wise. Tan with scarlet embroidery
or blue with scarlet polka-dots will
be fashionable; also some very pref
ty brown stockings, to be worn
with the tan shoe, have patterns
embroidered on them in black, and
1t is extremely chic.
White gloves have never been
more successful than they are now,
and every woman possesses at least a
dozen pairs OF these. One, find, can
easily do this in Paris, where, if you
are clever, you can purchase the
incest sort Of a white glace glove for
fifty cents, and thus, in having such
large number, you do not give
them such hard wear. The
in stitching on these gloves is q
double row of black and white on
the white glove. M
Dainty miniature pins, surrounded
by gold or brilliants, are the favor
tie pieces of jewelry, and they GER
tainly are pretty with the exquisite
faces of Nine. Recamier and the
other beauties Of the empire time,
painted so well and set off by the
jeweled or gold edging.
Lace collars, deep and Of every
quality and pattern of lace, are seen
all about the shops, worn with dark
gowns, in great numbers. They are
deeper than they were last season
and of heavier lace. One OF ecru,
on deep crepon bodice, was great
success.
Slippers are made of yellow kid,
on the style Of I. the Romeo" and
these have broad steel buckle at
the front and are used in the car
riage in place Of ties. Another fad
In slippers is to have them of tan,
finished with black binding of silk
and adorned with black rosettes or a
black Jet buckle.
Umbrella handles of ivory, stud
ded with small feur de lis, are the
latest in that department of femin-
Inc belongings, but they are very
expensive, and I like quite as well
some of the wooden handles with
round tops of cloisonne or Dresden,
with rim Of gold The swagger
shape, however, is the long, slim
handle Of either gold or silver.
Fronts come in every material, in
every style and at every price, so,
consequently, everybody wears
them. The newest are those Of
cornhower blue crepons, made up
with a high collar and two small
rosettes at the side. while from that
falls the gathered crepon, with q
yoke of "honeycomb," then ruffla.

Under the single gold standard, the
treasury of the United States with its
$1O0,0OO,OOO of the yellow metal, will
have to sustain $346 100000 of green
backs, $6OO,OOO,OOO in the silver cur
rency and S2O7, 100000 of national
bank notes in existence. In other
words the government must stand
good to redeem ten dollars or more
with every dollar in gold. How long
do you think it can sustain it9 Can
not rich syndicate at any time draw
the gold out of the treasury and force
the government to issue more bonds
or abandon the single standards
Such an idea can't stand. No man
can continue to do business with his
obligations amounting to ten times
the amount of his ability to pay them
No government can do it either

Naval Bureau Chiefs Conflicting Re-
ports Regarding Boat Designs.
For the first time in its history the board
ofnaval bureau chiefsha come to- an abso =
lutte disagreement, and have been obliged
to so report to Secretary Herbert, leaving
him to determine which side is right.
The disagreement grows out Ofthe designs
for the six new gunboats, for which plans
were prepared by the construction bu =
reau, and there are two reports on the
subject, one signed by four memebrs of the
board, totally disappearing OF the plans,
and one signed by two members, vigorously
upholding them.
The four members object that the boats
proposed will draw fourteen feet of water,
and so would not meet the requirements of
the act OF Congress, which describes them
as light draft gunbOats.
They also hold that the fitting CT the
vessels with complete full -saIl Ir0weT is
a mistake, as the experience 0r tile depart =
ment with such vessels as the Adams
sails eau beat against the wind, an duIere =
fore the sails will be almost Useless n aver =

On the other hand. the supporters Of
the plans undertake TO denl1nstritte tliat
the vessels will be efficient, and s,.Iy much
more economical than boats Without sails,
arguing that the criticisms OF the ctheFS
are founded on vessels not given fuA sail
power and giving figures 10 support their
assertions.
