IF President Cleveland and
the mem bers Of his cabinet ex
pected that their coming out
publicly for the Indianapolis
ticket would make a sensation,
they were badly disappointed.
What else could they do? All
the world knows that had il
not been for President Cleve-
land there would have been no
Indianapolis ticket. Therefore
it would have been q real sur
prise had not Mr.. Cleveland
and the mem bers Of his cabinet
announced their intention to
support Mr.. Cleveland's own
ticket. The announcement
plays no part in the presen.
status of the campaign; it was
duly allowed for weeks ago.

with pleasure that was evidently deep
and true. oh, DR.. -, l am so CRATE

There is probably no peasantry in the
world so ground down as the Persian.
The agricultural laborer there, as in
China, never tries to ameliorate his con-
dition, for the simple reason that if he
earns more, more is taken away from
him by the rulers Of the land. The gen.
eral condition of the laboring classes,
however, does not seem TO be so bad as
might be supposed. In a country so vast

If you have q, desire to be beautiful-and
being woman, of course you have. al
though 1t may be an almost unacknowl-
edged and a deeply buried wish-if you
wish your face to regain its natural soft
ness, your eyes to grow steady and true,
your mouth to take unto itself only curves
of pleasantness-and unaffected pleasant
ness is meant-and to down all unpleasing
wrinkles-f this is what in your innermost
nature you admire and could wish to be
yours, don't put your faith in massage. nor
in a patent wrinkle dispeiler, nor in stere-
otyped rules of existing, nor yet depend on
the result of thinking thoughts of pleas
antness. No. But just go soul and heart
and body into a cause a worthy one and
what is more-a broadening one. and the
effect on your physiognomy will be remark
able and beneficial. Yes, this is old-all

flowers and water in the vase must be
perfectly fresh always.
The very prettiest centerpiece for tie
table l have seen. in the way of growing
plants, was a log cabin" arrangement of
messy twigs in which maidenhair and
small lady ferns were growing, just as
they We're when lifted from their native
nook in the cool, green wood. A contrast
to this was another fern arrangement on
an elegantly laid dinner table. 1t was a
big, beautiful fern from an expensive flor
ist and the iardemiere in which it was
growing did not come from dollar store.
This was in the center of the dinner table
anG It effected total eclipse of the host
from NE throughout the meal and of the
hostess from the other guests present,
who was her vks-a-vis. We desired to con-
verse with our kind entertainers face to
face, to be sure; and the checkmatinE of
that fine fern proved to be such violent
exercise that II became a hateful thing be-
fore the bringing on of the second course.

When there Is no servant many steps
may be saved if small table with the tea

Homeless woman's Club.

Paris has a club for women, not a liter
ary or philanthropic club, but one more
like a gentlemen's club. 1t was established
some months ago: the object is to provide
a place where women without homes may
meet, take their meals and pass their even
ings There is well selected library, but
cards are not to be indulged in, neither
shall there be discussion of politics or re-
ligion. Thus a quiet time is secured, since
games. politics and religion are the sources
of many social quarrels. A lady may join
this club by paying a fee of 60 francs a
year. The employees are women. Some per-
sons may think the Ladies Club of the Rue
Duperre a stupid company, but there are
women who value a quiet time with no
more company and entertainment than a
cat and a cup of tea

hat. Waving the hair Is as popular as
ever, and it is arranged so as to be very
loose and fluffy about the face, and is held
in place at the back with pretty curved
combs. The pompadour front is worn, and
can be made becoming to almost every
face with a few curling locks to fall on the
forehead.
Table cloths that are much worn In the

The new buttons are not utilitarian af-
fairs. but usually ornaments. On elegant
gowns or coats they are often jeweled and
wrought of precious metals. Some of the
most artistic of these buttons are of Rus
sian silver, and made In open patterns
of Greek arabesques, and are decorated
in Niello work, the famous black enamel
the art of which is inherited from old
Byzantine workers in enamel.
The least that can be said of hats this
season is enough for anything very pretty
in autumn millinery has not put in an ap-
pearance- The milliners give as a reason
for this that we are to have a decided
change in shapes. The old English walking
hat is to be brought out again in mod
ernized edition, which is either very stun
ming or very ugly, according as it suits
the face underneath. The crown Is of me-
dunn height, the brim rather narrow curv-
ing little on either side, and the trimming
is cox feathers, Paradise or ostrich plumes,
spreading away on each side from a wide
bow. and buckle in front. Silk hats in
colors are seen, but the Amazon shape
seems to lead in these. One of the few
hats which are pretty is a black felt with a
round. medium brim, trimmed with two
rosettes of noss-green velvet and cluster
of feathers on one side, two rosettes of
cream lace on the other, with jet orna-
ments in the center and some prettiiy
twisted black satin.
Reports from Paris tell US that the re-
action against white and paIe-tinted even
ing gowns has at last come. Unkind folk
are limiting that the mode was killed by
the stout and elderly matrons, who fondly
imagined snowy draperies becoming to
their charmsi Be this as 1t may, We are
assured that red is to be the only wear
of the ultra smart for dinners and dances
1t is to be enhanced by such additions as
black velvet poppies and Oriental en-
brOideries Doubtless its CHEEKY warmth
of hue will be most acceptable to the eve

who possess the ivory-tinted skin with

Fill the vessels in which the eggs are to

caused by the Stacking of the lime will

Enormous waist buckles which are at

Before woman decides upon wearing a
sleeveless gown she must be sure that her

Amateur dressmakers will find that best
effects in the greatest number of evening
