The representative. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1893-1901, 1896-08-26

Direct legislation through the Initiative
and Referendum is r system whereby the
people make their own laws. That is ex-
actly what the people Of the United States
want. They have tried representative
government now for more than century
and the masses have grown poorer and the
classes richer; corporations reap the har-
vest and laboring men work the reaper;
plutocracy is legislated for and the people
are legislated against; the wealth has con-
centrated into the hands of few, and
beggary and pauperism has become gem

A CHARMING GOLF SUIT.

A charming model, primarily in
tended for golfing, but equally suited
for walking, especially in damp wealth
er. is a "tailor-made'' tweed, homespun
or serge, dark green in hue, with turn
ed-back collar, revers and cuffs or
white cloth stitched round. For these,
others in pique, removable and wash
able. may be substituted. The coat
and straps are also stitched round three
times The plain skirt is not more
than four yards wide and is lined with
silk. For this purpose an old dress
may be utiliZed-a last summers wash
ing silk, or a petticoat in fairly good
condition. The same remark appnes
to the lining of the bicycle costume
The skirt does not come below the
ankles, and is met by high tan laced
boots. The hat is either OF rough straw
| or of fawn Panama with a Tam o.
! Shanter crown, punches of ribbon OF
each side, and two quilts. The neal
little shirt is of pink zephyr or cam
brio. with small pleats down the front
The reyers and cuffs are lined WIFI
| stiff canvas The basque is full at the
hack and the sleeves are of moderate
size. Smoked pearl buttons give
finish to the whole. About seven yard
of tweed, double width, will be re
ouired: 1 IL yards of white cloth 10

for the bodice, and about SIX yards

BR1DE-ELEcT MoNoGRAMs.

When a young woman changes her
name she naturally changes her initials
and it is necessary for her trousseau
to be identified with her new and wife
ly character in the matter of mono
gram. Fashion DEGREES how this mon
ogram shall be done, just as the arbi-
trary dame DEGREES how visiting cards
shall be printed or the shears of the
modiste welded in cutting dresses. 1t
is a good thing for the monogram ma
kers that Dame Fashion demands con-
slant changes, for her whims are eX-
penSiVe and must be obeyed.
1t used to be the correct thing, in
monograms to start with the initial
letter of the surname as centrepiece
and have the initial letters of the first
and second names Enthusiastically inter
twined around it. Swell society people
no longer have their monographs work
ed in this way. The initials are run
straight along in small letters.
A few of the recent brides ignored
custom and had their first names
worked ON the underclothing. This
departure from the recognized mono
gram style was due to superstitiOus

One day 1 stood waiting at a tele-
phone in a busy store, and saw the high
desks ranged about the office where |
stood, and the tall stools were here and
there a writer perched on high. And L
was struck with the absurdity OF the
tall desks and stools, but not at that
time did my long standing at the tele-
phone seem a foolish proceeding. The
tall desks-why, they must have been
first in the fashion years and years ago,
so that the clerks could step to the desk
and record their sales without taking
the trouble-or the time-to sit. Hence,
for those who had considerable writ
ing, the tall perches. When the inter
mittent clerks was replaced by the
chronic bookkeeper the desk came
down, and the bookkeeper not from his
perch, but with it.
