SaIvationists SeIf-Denial Week.
The Salvationists throughout
the United States are having their
Self Denial Week from November
10th to % inclusive. Consequent
ly the most strenuous efforts are
being put forth on the part of the
Army generally throughout the
country, md locally in the separ-
ate towns and villages where the
Army operates.
The amounts collected during
past Self Denial Weeks in the Unit
ed States have been constantly in
creasing, and there are many rea-
sons for believing that this year s
effort will exceed any former one.
Many OF the officers and soldiers
have actually determined to live
on bread and water, in order to
raise more money and reach the
goal aimed for Soldiers have
been told off to visit from house
to house aud solicit contributions.
We are aiming for $50 here in

The country voted for the
best men and the best times.
-Bryanism has lost its sig
nificance as a word of i'll omen.
Let us bury the hatchet
and take MP the tools of prosperl-
ty.
w. J. Bryan will be older
next time, and will probably know
better.
1t was little hard on Alt
geld, but it was good thing for
Illinois.
Vest will not be a very good
Senator, but he will not succeed a
better man.
Bryan is better than his
party, but it was the party which
was on trial.
Missouri is a great State
after all. Its worst feature is the
way it votes.
The more the smoke clears
away, the more 1t stands out as a
famous victory
The victory each silver
baron confidently predicted turned
out to be a barren one.
-Altgeld is a candidate for
Mayor of Chicago. He will run
ONT the Bumocratic ticket.
The American demagogue
was thoroughly rebuked last week,
and American business sense was
vindicated
The Chicago platform will
be remembered as deliberate test
of the sanity of the American peo-
pie.
The chances are about l6 to
i that the Democrats will have a
different campaign slogan next
time.
THE business revival has
already begun, and the reformed
Bryanites will not be able to
check it.
Us it too soon to inquire
who paid the boy orators bills
while he was starring it over the
country!
The question row is, how
much free silver will the Post
Dispatch manage to take in in the
next few years'
Missouri will probably go
Republican some day. DR.. Tai
mage is still confident the world
will yet be evangelical.
Missouri did not neceSsari-
ly vote for free silver. 1t voted
to please the demagogues who
had taken up the hoax of 16 to 1.
The demagogues may plan
and strive thousand ways to
work us, but we elect no candi-
date who makes himself a circus.
The Republican party stands
for honest money, honest men and
honest methods. 1t mains to
this day the party of "Honest
Abe.n
If Charles H. Jones will
write the Populist platform in
1900, the country will have little
to fear from that political organ
iZation.
Sound money men preached
better tunes, it's plain they were
not joking, for now, while clears
the battle smoke, we see the facto-
ries smoking.
Prominent Democrats last
week admitted they were glad Bry-
au was beaten, yet they had voted
for him. Such abiect party slas.
very isto be deplored.
1t must not be forgotten
that the Democratic tariff was on
trial before the country last week.
The verdict will be profitably re-
membered for many years.
st. Louis continues the solid
city of the country. 1t goes un-
shaken throught panic like that
oflS93. and it votes heavily against
such a one as was proposed in
1896.

the back the panels were very wide.

sprinkled with flowers worked in silk

worn largely. and there is a wide
choice of styles. Among the prettiest
ones are those having a warp design

over a colored silk lining, with girdle

also some very attractive plaids in rich

ing wear are also seen, and some close
shapes resembling the old fashioned
English walking hat. Parasois are, on
the whole, less trimmed than in former
years. Although many are lavishly
adorned with lace, ruf1es, puhings and
flowers. the majority are without trim
mings and are of changeable, lowered
checkered or striped silk.
There has been a return to hats and
bonnets of drawn tulle and mousseline

light and are pretty accompaniment
to dainty summer gowns. Roses are
seen in great abundance, and dahlies
and hydrangeas are also in evidence.
