COLONEL FINERTY'S PREDICTION.

Colonel John +. Finerty says: The platform
will cost Mckinley I,ooo, 900 votes. The fact
that Hanna is to run the campaign will cost
him 600, 900 more. Where he will obtain
enough votes to balance this disafection | have
rot vet been able TO figure out What jar it
would be to Hanna and the other bosses if Nc
Kinlrl should die and Roosevelt should succeed
him! Roosevelt whatever else may be said Of
him, is man of strong personality and has
will Of his own, both of which attributes are
sadly lacking in the head Of the ticket. The
nomination of Mckinley showed that the Re-
publcan party favors his imperastic ideas.
German and shAmericaus in large numbers
will desert the ticket this fall, and will vote for
Mr.. Bryan, because thsy believe the Republican
party is in he hands of the trusts and commit
ted in favor Of Imperialism.

How to improve or preserve good

"What has taken place in the scalp
tissues that the texture Of the hair
and its resources are lost? There
are two causes: Reduced nutrition
for the whole system aud retarded
circulation in scalp tissues, which
cause a drying out of the tiny blood
vessels that formerly conveyed the
nutritiye forces to the folicles and
sobaceous glands. This loss occasions
gradual hardening of the scalp cuticle
and atrophy OF the hair bulbs.

Ankle Rings of Pink.

A revival Of pretty ultra-feminine
fashion is that Of tho white silk stock
ing. White stockings are rather rare
nowadays, having been superseded by
the hosiery in fast colors, which do
not show traces OF dust on return from
n walk downtown. The truth Of the
matter is that long skirts and street
dust soil white stocking half an hour
after it is put on. As women usually
change their stockings every other
day they object to the dingy look OF n
white stocking which has been worn
out Of doors for half day.
Some imported white silk stockings
show rings of delicate blue, tan, or
mauve, or even black, in the upper
part of the hosiery. A small ring or
woven color around the ankle recalls
the ankle bangles Of Oriental women.
A pair OF pink-striped white silk
stockings is pretty enough to suit the
most capricious taste. Wear these
with patent leather slippers. -Phila-
