Acquaintances of Yours

IL Is popular misa pprehenSion that the
National Tribune, George E. Lemons big
soldiers paper, has been stopped because
it was provided in Capt. Lemon 5 viii that
the executors OF his estate should not CON
time it. There was no reason why others
should not continue it, and, as a matter
of fact, it is still going, and going sue
cesSfully, in charge Of its former editor
and publisher, John McElroy This is a

Embroidery on Handkerchiefs.


Colored handkerchiefs, elaborately EN-,
broidered, are the vogue. Birds and in
Sects are preferred TO floral designs for
decorative purposes.
For instance, line of swallows Will ex-
tend diagonally across the center of the
handkeI chief, OF swarm of butterflies will
adorn the four corners.
Bees delicately outlined form a pretty
border, and upon either side of them a
narrow hemstitched band is sparsely en-.
brodered, with a larger growth of the
busybodies.
Embroideries are either in contrasting
shades or white. Plain bordered ones at
the Marson Blanc were quite chic. Deep
purple and white centers, bordered by
black duchesse lace are the accepted styles
for mourning use.
Monograns are done in outline stitch and
are frequently placed in the center of the
handkerchief. This is, however, a matter
of fancy, but must always be framed V
a circle in some correspondingly attrac
tive embroidery stitch
Ecru linen kerchiefs, with stripes or
checks OF lavender, reseda, green or old
pink, are among the Smart combinations
for general utility purposes.
handkerchief to match the gown in
color are quite the proper thing, and fol
evening wear flimsy bits of mousseine de
sole, edged by several ruffles of point .l'es
prit lace, only are correct.
Tie minor accessories of the toilet are
demanding great attention, and none is re.
ceiying more than the handkerchiefs OF
'97, which are daintily exquisite in de
sign and manufacture.

Thoughts From Goethe.

Completion of the greatest work demands
One guiding spirit for a thousapd hands
Behavior is a mirror in which every one
displays his own image
Mediocrity has no greater consolation
than in the thought t hat genius is not inn
mortal.
Difficulties increase the nearer we are
to our end.
Sowing is not SO difficult as reaping-
Every step is an end, and every step is
a beginning.
The heart alone makes our happiness
MISUNDERSTANDING and neglect occasion
moreniischiefin this world than eyenmalice
and wickedness.
Man needs but little earth for enjoyment
and still less for his final repose.
Happy the man who early learns the
immeasurable distance between his wishes
and his powers
Happy those whom fate protects and edl-
Gates according to his talents.

1t is deserving of this permanent record
that one A. L. Rutter, OF Chicago, wants
TO be chief clerk of the Treasury Depart
ment. We have always supposed that no
Republican Secretary OF tile Treasury, and
especially Mr.. Gage, could get along with
cut our young friend Logan; and Logan
has had so much experience in keeping
Republicans in office and in preventing
Democrats from being appointed for any
other cause than merit alone, that he
would be what might he described as
valuable adjunct to any administration.
Mr.. Rutter has his eagle eye on Logan's
place, however, and perhaps after all
Logan will have to go. Mr.. Rutter took
along with him to Canton a clergyman
of prominence, doubtless to press his claim
the harder. Perhaps this did him good.
1t was the case with one or two Cabinet
officers of tie last ten years. however
that they didn't care particularly for the
Endorsement of tie ministers on apElica-
tions for appointment Tie ministers would
not recommend any one that WASH good:
but they were soon found to be unfamiliar

tions requisite to make good records in
