How to Knit the Soft Foot cushions Tha,
Were Once Popular.

How to Knit the Soft Foot cushions That
Were Once Popular.
There seems to be q renewed interest
in brooches, the soft foot cushions that
were once popular. L urge that they
arc to enjoy revival, like many other
luNuries, and think that readers may
be glad ofea rule for knitting them
which has the merit of being an Oft
tried one. The foundation for the foot
stool is a leather-covered disk of mill
board about nine inches in diameter;
to this the knitted stripe is sewed, and
stuffed with ,hair, and pulled down to
make a deep depression by taking some
stitches through the board bottom
with carpet thread and a sailors
needle. A large furniture button or
short cord and tassel tied in bow IS
sewed over the gathering. The brioche,
which originally won it's name from it's
resemblance in the shape to the French
cake OF that name, is knitted of double
zephyr wool in stripes, 16 of them being
harrow and 10 wide, the latter narrow
ing to point at the center of the
cushion. Cast on 40 stitches in black
wool and knit seven rows of the narrow
stripe; then with an old gold color knit
two stitches and turn, knitting back to
the end of the row; continue to knit
back. and forth with the old gold, taxi
ing each time two more stitches of the
black until within two stitches of the
top. Then knit down and commence
again with black, making another mar
row stripe, knitting in the two black
stitches at the top in their turn. When
the last stripe is finished it should be
sewed or knitted to the first stripe.
These directions are contributed by a
knitter who has had an experience of
over sixty-five years, and they ought to
be reliable. But I should advise anyone
who thinks them complicated to cut a
pattern of the wide or gored stripe, max
ing the top Hike melon piece, and, in
knitting narrow, by taking up two
stitches together till the shape CORE
spends with the pattern. If the brioche
is to be stuffed with down it must be
made with an interlinipg of ticking or
stout unbleached muslin, else the fill
ingwill continually be escaping in fluffy
particles.-HarpeF's Bazaar.

At the present time the farmers

gagged in manufacturing pursuits. As
ours Is government which is clnim ed
10 represent the whole people it might
naturally be supposed that the inter
ests of the ma jority were the first con-
sideration of national legisint1ons- A
brief examination will show whether
snch is tho fact.
The census retUrne for 1890 show
that the farm products OF the United
ststes In the last census year were
valued ut SO. 5OD, 600, 900. In the same
year the products OF tho American
manufacturers wero valued Mt so, $40. :

comparatively small share OF tho an
hual wealth OF the country there must
be some gu efficient reason.
What that renson is Is not hard to
find. j. Us In part thet for over 80
years the repn blican party maintained
a most Ubiquitous system of taxation
which fell with crushing weight upon
the American farner. Under the pre-
tense of creating n home market for
their products the farmers were COM
PEELED to pay billions of dollars In I'M
just taxation, and billions more in
high prices cxtorted by the favored OBJ
jrcts of class legislation The pro-
tected manufacturers were Subsidized
with money wrun0 from she unpro-
tected farmers. Instead of helping
the great foundation industry of the
country, il WIS oppressed by laws
which brought rnin mud poverty to
hundreds of thousands. The record of
80 years of republican rule was one of
continued discrimination against the
men whose unwearied toll hnd made
this great commonwealth.
This is why there has been no much
poverty and discomfort arnong the
farmers; why the price of farm lands
has steadily fallen in many states;
why the young men have left the rurul
districts and crowded into the cities
md towns Is it not time to protest
against the attempt Of the monopol ists
who control the republican machine,
to restore mud extend the system
which has proved such curse 10 the

Our esteemed contemporary, The
Press pcrccives with alarm the con-
tinued formation of new trusts. Tho
leather trust, the iron ore trust, the
coke trust, the sugar trust, the flow

new Bessemer billet trust and various
other combinations OF like character

of sitting competition and fixing the

that the democratic party did not sue
eeed In It's efforts 10 replace the pro-
, tectivc with revenue tariff. We
still have high protective tariff with
/ dutios averaging 43 per cent, as
against an average of 40 per cent I'M
der the Mckinley act Without the
cover afforded by protective duties the
greater number OF the trusts could not
maintain themselves. 1t is the basest
ingratitude upon the part Of the bene-
fciaries of high duties that they should
so far forget themselves in the year of
presidential election us to go on with

the voters know it. viii the trusts

Possibly the gentlemen who are or

production and raise prices do not be-

the idea that high tariffs are primarily
Intended to create competition and to
Increase wages. They are perfectly
justified in such n conjecture 1t does
not require any particular astuteness
OF intellect TO understand that If the
object of tariff duties be not to raise
prices there would be no protec-
tionists In the country. When competi-
ton leads to lowering OF prices COM
bination Is the cover for It, This is
comprehended fully both by those who
insist upon protection and those who
oppose it. How well the people under.
stand it was evidenced by the over-
throw OF the republican party in 1890
and 1892. The Press is very much
afraid that the trusts in their mop.
