TIE Manchester Star says the U. s.
supreme court has made law that those
who take a newspaper and do not pay
for it shall be sent to the penitentiary.
Unfortunately such is not the law. The
fellow who refuses to pay for paper sf-
ter he has read it is mean enough to be
sent anywhere, but no more can be done
with him than with any other scoundrel
who doesn't pay his debts. Besides the
U. S. supreme. court doesn't make the
lave, it only passes upon them when
they are questioned after the Legislative
branch OF the government has passed

Mr.. Bradley made some bad breaks at
Louisville. After abusing the democrat
ic party for Encouragement OF the affairs
OF the State, be wound up one of his
flights as follows; "Who is Gov. Brown?
An able. upright chief magistrate of your
State; a man of ability, a man OF cour-
age, a man who does not hesitate to
speak of anything in his own party that
be doesn't believe to be right" Now
right here is where the colonel slipped
up. He says he wants a look at those
books because he believes something is
wrong. Gov. Brown IAN upright man"
says there is nothing the matter with
them. Gov. Brown, "a man OF ability
says the revenues have been expended
judiciously. Gov. Brown, "a man OF
courage" would have taken the stump
himself to defend his administration
against Just such clap-trap as Mr.. Brad
ley is giving Kentucky, il il were not
for his family affairs. What Mr.. Brad.
ley said Of Gov. Brown is most true and
he might have added that the 9TH
er State officials are like unto him. The
Gsrrard county statesman, is very
but he can not pick one flaw in
the democratic record.

JOHN L. BosLEY has sold his interest
in the Winchester Sun to W. I. Adams
and ]. r. Broadhurst, his partners, and
will retire fromiljournalism again for a
time. He does not state what he will do,
but we suspect that after he tries his
hand on his farm again for awhile he
will sigh for the tripod and mount ii as
soon as he can get one. AS it's editors
are democrats the Sun will now doubt
less come over to the side OF right and
democracy gain another champion.

TIE conference between the ceutrs

resulted in confusing matters more than
ever and demonstrated the unwisdom Of
the call, unless the committee was pre-.

Of q very bad fix and presenting a solid
front to the foe. During the conference
there were several passages at arms,
Chairman Long and Green Keller, can
didate for railroad commissioner, nearly
coming to blows. After it found out
that it was making confusion worse con-
founded, the committee appointed sub
committee OF five to draw up an address
to the democracy of the State, counsel
ing that the money question be ignored
and loyal support be given the nomi-
nees. The currency question can not be
ignored now. Col. Bradley sees his
vantage ground and is soldier enough to
occupy it to demociscy's danger. The
object of the committee in desiring
conference was doubtless to make an ef-
fort at reaching some common plane up
on which all democrats could stand, and
failing, to wipe it's hands of the disgrace
of defeat. should the head of the ticket
cause that deplorable result. The mis-
take OF nominating free silver man on
q sound money platform grows moreand

ocrats to quarrel over that now. Any
kind of a democrat is preferable to US
over a republican and We shall do all in
our powe- to prevent the administration
of the affairs OF the State from being
turned over to that INSCRIPTIONS party.
The course OF Gen. Hardin only makes
the fight harder, but We can and must

Peter Reinheimer is the hotel man ut
Winchester. His house is equal to the
average country hotel, but, like hum
dreds of others, prunes always find q
prominent place on the bill Of fare.
One evening a we'll known Indianapo-
lis traveller took seat at the table
with the landlord, and about the first
thing he noticed was dish of prunes.
"Pete," said he, why in blue blazes
don't you give something besides
prunes to eat This is the same dish l
had when was here month ago."
"You are foolish" replied Reinheim-
or, "they were cooked to-day"
mo. this is the same dish," replied
the traveller. II know every prune in
It; you can't fool me. When was
here before l placed quarter in the
dish. If it is still there will you be-
lieve me?".
"You are talking through your hat"
said Reinheimer; that is joke. I
think will laugh a little"
While he was talking the travelling
man was fishing around in the dish,
and in moment he brought up quar-
ter. "There, what did l tell you," he
exclaimed. Everybody laughed, and
one of the waiter girls nearly tainted.
Reinheimer had other kinds of dessert
after that, and it was nearly two
months later that the travelling man
told him that he had placed the quar-
ter in the dish before he (Reinheimer)
entered the dining-room.-N. Y. Re-

NOT ALWAYS BECOMING.

But Nevertheless tho Big Rosette Bows 1T
tho Throat Must BE Worn.
Why will women with full faces and
chubby throats persist in wearing the
full rosette bows and tabs and aaring
ends, to say nothing of the crush col
lars and ruchings now so popular?
What with the overpuffed sleeves, elab-
orately trimmed bodices, hats trimmed
at right angles, and these variegated
arrangements about the neck and ears;
the middle-aged woman with more
than a suspicion of double chin bears q
strong resemblance to setting hen
whose feathers have been ruffled from
untimely interference. A symmetrical
throat, one rounded like the base Of
column, which supports delicate oval
face above, looks well with outstand-
ing bows and rosettes Of chiffon, lace
or ribbon, with masses of crepe lisse
and velvet crushed and crinkled about
it's circumference, but the chubby-faced
girl and buxom matron (who doubtless
look their best in decollette gowns).
had best beware of all these fussy
fixings and fichus designed for house
and reception toilets. BY the way,
does not all this exaggeration Of orna-
ment about the neck, this reaction aft
er the plain Puritan collar SO long in
vogue, portend return to the quad
ruple plated ruches of the Elizabethan
era, the kind one sees in pictures OF
the velvet-robed, much-married, mar
tyred Mary of Scotland when dressed
for her execution. The same elabora-
ton and accentuation of the much
puffed sleeve prevailed then as now.
If women accept the bows, rosettes
and quillings, why not the high-stand-
ing, much-stiffened ruche? With tho
advent of the ruche era, the double
chinned dowagers will be lost indeed.
But, then, thing being the fashion is
much more potent argument for
adopting it than its fitness or becom-
ingness-N. Y. Post.

How to Make Elaborate and HandsOme
Bed Coverings.
Charming comforters for use on the
foot of the bed in cold weather may be
made at home, and at an expense far
less than that of the eider-down quilts
which are considered such luxury.
For one of these, silk in solid color
should be chosen, either pale blue,
pink, or yellow, according to the fur
nishings of the room in which 1t is to
be used, and instead of filling it with
cotton batting, get that which is made
of wool.
This is more expensive, costing one
dollar a pound but it has the advant-
age of being hygienic, which the cot
ton is not-that is, it allows free cir
culation OF air, and therefore permits
the exhalations of the body to pass
through instead of absorbing them. 1t
is also extremely light and warm, and
If covered with silk will be as hand
some as the costliest eider-down.
A quilting-frame renders the making
of one of these covers very simple, but
it is not difficult to manage without
one. Lay the material, which should
measure one and half by two and a
quarter yards for the small size, over
a bed, roll out the batting, and lay it
evenly on this, tacking the breadths of
wool together where they lap with
long basting- threads. Put the upper
side of the silk over all, and begin six
inches from the edge to put In a
row of tacking, tying each one with a
tiny knot of No. ribbon to match tho
silk.
Make second row of tackings, al
ternating SO that they fall between and
not opposite those of the first row, and
continue in the same way until the en-
tire comforter is tufted, rolling 1t up
as each row is finished.
The upper and lower edges may be
simply hemmed together and ornament
ed with coarse silk thread to match, done
in button-hole stitch, but by far the
most effective finish is a double ruffle,
about two inches in width, of the same
material as the comforter, sewed in all
around.
A comforter of this sort would be a
delightful present for man with
whom one was sufficiently familiar for
the interchange of anything SO valua-
BILE, and it would be sure to be one
which he would enjoy and treasure.
If it be necessary to choose material
which is less costly, cheese-cloth is Of
course always dainty and suitable, and
one of this goods might be made in the
same way, the full rufile cdging it all
around being great Improvement

"And you will receive your guests in

course she took offense and called me
most ungracious and harsh thing,
and started to go. Finally she calmed
down and told me how she had caught
cold. She had had it for nearly three
weeks; she had taken hot bath,
changed her heavy fannels for light
ones, and gone to the house of friend
block away to attend dance. She
had walked there with only long
loose wrap around her besides her
light evening gown, because it was
such short distance. The next day
she had cold in her head and chills
and fever; SO she took a dose of quinine
and went out to make calls. She had
spent three weeks of activity, which
makes me exhausted to simply think
OF. Balls and dinners every night,
calling and shopping by day, thin
clothes and light shoes, wet feet and
