accompanied by their govelness, who were
enthusiastic enough to bring smile to the
face OF the most base dude They look
ed as dainty and fresh as spring flowers in
their pretty new frocks.
The youngest wore a double breasted
REFER coat and a short skirt, of cloth of a
The coat was open to show turn down
collar and tie 1t had four large buttons,
and, as a finish, two rows of stitching
around the edges and on the pocket flaps.
The skirt had a saucy look that suited the
wearer's jaunty style to perfection. Her
hair hung carelessly about her ears; the
tan suede.
The other girls had more 'grown-up"
air, with dresses Of new check designs.
One wore a blazer coat and skirt of a large
check in green and brown. This was very
effective the collar of the coat forming
two square tabs, the revers being carried
from the bottom tab and broadening at
the lower end. This gave an entirely new
and very dressy effect. Three buttons
were on each reyer. The sleeves were
leg Of mutton and the whole had double
row of stitching. The skirt hung in grace
full folds to the boot tops. A green and
old rose shot silk waist was worn, with
cream lace at the throat.
The other girl had a neat suit of a small
check pattern in green and white, with a
black thread running through it. Her
jacket was an Elton, cut SO as to show the
whole front Of pretty pale blue silk
blouse. A single dart kept it well in place
at the waist; and on the broad revers
reaching to the armhole were three but
tons. There were three also on each side
of the dart at the bottom. The skirt had
several rows of stitching; and broad belt
completed "fetching'' little costume.
The trio fitted about through the throng
in a way that seemed to say 1--WE are
young; but we know how to dress.''

Again the t1ower-shoot cleaves the clcd;
Again the grass-spear greens the sod;
Again buds dot the wilow-rod
The sap released within the tree

And mounteth upward buoyantly.
Once more at purple evening-dream
The tender-vOiced, enamored stream
Unto the rush renews its theme
How packed with meaning this new birth
OF all the growing things of earth
Life springing after death and dearth,

Hath not this, in it's vernal scope,
Some radiant resurrection hope?-

THE MCLAURINS.

The name is synonymous with
office holding in Mississippi, and il
is from this one fact alone OF the best
and fattest offices in the state being
held by all OF the members OF one
family that has caused such heaping
OF abuse and torment. II does
appear in many minds as unjust il
not monopoly Of that which every
true citizen has right to, and 1t Is
from this standpoint that so many
begrudge the McLaurins ana would
willingiDgly help to annihilate them
to the shades of private life.

SENATOR GEORGE.

Accompanied by his two sons, his
daughter, son-in.law and trained
nurs., Senator George, having re-
covered sufficiently, left Washington
over the Southern road Monday
morning for his Mississippi home in
Carroll county. He left with the
full consent Of his physicians who
opined the journey could be made
without a set back and that the eli
matte Influences Of the Mississippi
bills and pines would hasten his con-
vaIescence. The Senator's illness
has given rise to many rumors regard
ing his resignation from office, but
fortunately such statements are
without affirmation. The editor OF
the Greenwood Commonwealth, who
ls in q position to speak knowingly
on the subject, under the captipn OF
"He should not resign, writes:
"The talk Of Senator George re-
signing because Of his illness is pure
ly speculative. No man is authorized
TO saJ ho even contemplates resigning.
While we feel quite sure that If Sena-
tor George should believe for one
moment that the public interest was
being neglected by his inability to
attend upon the deliberations Of the
senate he would resign at once. But
that Is not fact. There is nothing
Of special importance demanding
his attention at Washington. The
special session will consider no mea-

connected with that. We beIiev'

be resorted to.

universal in the "abuse" Of Clcve-
