THE STATE OF TIE COUNTRY.

This country is not yet "the most
distressful' country that has ever been
seen, but there is no denying that it is
a disturbed country, and the pessimists
in it feel pretty sure that the distress
that is now lacking is coming. And
even the optinlists are sadly impressed
by some of the signs of the times. They
see a vast population apparently only
partially imbued with "the spirit of our
institutions" They see large part of
that population ignorant, poor and dis
contented. They see rottenness at the
very roots of citizenship. They see the
voting power made the sport and the
tool of designing and constituencies
politicians, and they see the vote buyer
and the vote-seller perniciously at
work. They see gigantic swindling OPP
erations concocted and carried out for
the robbery of the people. They see
dishonesty in business too generally
considered and acted ON as the best
policy. They see a decay In faith and
in religious interest They see light
living where there should be earnest
living. They see government, which
was chosen by the people in hope and
confidence, prove unfit to govern They
see, right on the edge Of another choice
of a government. a large number of the
people given over to strong delusion
and to believe a lie. They see the fiat
money idea flourishing, persistent and
dishonest as ever. They see treason
able conspiracy of SILVER men, bent
ON making money for themselves, even
at the expense of the nations credit
and the nations prosperity And they
see sectionalism beginning to be again
conspicuous.
Do all these things, and the others
that might be added, mean that the
human race in this part Of the world is
a failure and that popular government
here is a failure? Probably not. At
least let us hope not. But these things
and the others are not cheering. They
must, nevertheless, be dealt with. And
it behooves all who are not deluded or
wicked, or both, all who are clear-head-
ed and sensible, all who are patriotic
and lovers of liberty, and all who have
real interest in the prosperity of the
nation, to form themselves into a COM
mittee of the whole on the state of the
country, and do what in them lies to
| uphold government of the people, by
the people, for the people, and make it
worthy 1t is not a time for blind ad-
herence to party, or for care1essness in
the doing Of political duty. The men
of sense and principle must act togeth-
er in this emergency, which is the most
| serious that has confronted us since
the war. They must act together in
favor of competent government and
| common honesty in the financial policy
| of the country

for a clumsy fat woman than anything
I can recommend"
We hope the somersau|t cure will
soon be introduced In New Haven, for
while we have an unusually large pro-
portion of lovely female forms here
there are many which need improving.
And we also hope that our illustrated
journalists will not fail to give us
many and adequate pictures of the
process. In this way the lean might
be enabled to laugh and grow fat While
the fat were turning tlip-nops and
growing lean.

White tulle should be the material of
the veil worn with this pictured hat,
whose brim of coarse tan straw is fin
ished all around with gathered white
tulle. In front directly back Of the
tulle are placed a huge tulle rosette
edged with narrow white lace, and two
large black rosettes. With the excep-
ton Of the tulle the back is untrimmed.
Pretty as white wells are, they are
not to be recommended on the score of
economy, for 1T is necessary that they
should be absolutely fresh, white and
crisp. Better by far limp black veil.
If you must wear,one that is not crisp,
than a limp white one. White wells

a rather thin texture is the prettiest.

Pointers ON the Use of Wells.
Many q hat that is not quite becom-
ing is made SO when a generously fold
ed Veil is put about it and the face, and
when properly adjusted the veil Sc
cures the hat from moving on the head.
Many women would no more appear in
public without a veil for outdoors
than they would wear stiff shirt and
collar, and omit the tie. Wells are now
in considerable variety, but colored
ones are not worn, except sheer tulles,
which are shown in all sorts of effects
to harmonic with the hat. This hard
ly seems the best of taste, for, though
it makes the hat seem more ornament
al in the millinery window, it's effect is
to rather submerge the girl in a torrent
OF tulle, and, after all, it is the girl who
should be made most important.
