The republican policy of cutting

The nomination OF Mr.. Charles

China, If persisted in by Mr..

big fuss in the Senate. Ii has been

the European grab game which is

imperative that the U. S. minister
TO that country should be a man of
wide diplomatic experience, and
that Mr.. Bryan lacks that qualil-

Z" Webbing Willie" is again be-
ing applied to Mr.. Mckinley as a
nickname by mem bers of his own
party. The republicans who still
call themselves bimetallists have
about decided that Mr.. Mckinley
must either declare himself to be a
gold monometallist or bimetallist:
they are tlrd of having him coddle
them by talking bimetalism and
then allow Secretary Gage to pub
licly announce, without remon-
STRANGE, that the administration
was for any and everything that
was regarded as likely to help per-
petuate the single gold standard.
These men have quieted their con-
stituents by assuring them of Mr..
McKinley's sincere friendship for
bimetalllsm, and his desire TO aid
IN its restoration when the oppor-
tunity offered, and it was from
Mr.. Mckinley himself that they
got the impressions upon which
those assurances were founded.
Now they have dou BITS, and will de-
mand that Mr.. Mckinley settle
them once for all.

Mr.. Mckinley has been webbing

Folly OF Buying Abroad.

A we'll known society woman who
for some time has made annual trims
to Europe for styles, has come to the
conclusion that few things can be pur-
chased abroad at lower rates than are
demanded for the same articles right
here In Chicago. cat certain seasons
IN the year" says the observant travel
er, Partisan shopkeepers put out a
certain. class of goods and put up their
prices. and Americans rush in and ,buy
and bring home the most ridiculous
things, thinking they are Partisan
styles. Women go abroad to buy furs.
II you go to Switzerland you can get
them for a song, but they are not the
right style, and they have to be altered.
and the expense is so great that moth
ing is saved. l know one woman who
bought this year a beautiful Persian
lamb coat, with lapels and cuffs of
chlnchilla, in Paris. She paid in the
nrst place exactly. as much for it as
she would have been obliged to a at
the highest priced turner's here. Then
the garment was not right. There had
been no n in the shop who spoke
English. and she could not sneak
french, and the consequence was she
had TO have a change made after she
brought the garment home. If she
nad purchased here she would have had
no trouble with the language, and could
V ound the same thing with half
the u and less expense.

Il don't believe in bargains anv

I don't believe in bargains, any,
way" continued the speaker. IF you
get a good article you must pay what
1t Is worth. 1t is not necessary, how
ever, to go to the highest priced shops
to buy everything. Most of the shops
mere doing any kind of business will
import as good articles and as good
STYLES as the more expensive places and
me exclusive dressmakers. The
French modistes say that they will not
duplicate. but they do. The advantage
to be found in going to a irst-class
modiste here is that she has good ideas
and good workwomen. 1t is seldom
that she sends out a French model
without altering it and improving If
There is not the facility for doing This
in the shops, and models may be held
over longer. The great thing in Inv
Ing is to be up to date yourself. If
% know what is good style you can
often find 1t at the cheaper places. cut

lower.
