He was an educated young fellow, n

prettily trimmed that it is almost a
fancy cloth waist. Fashioned in dark
green twill, embroidered with black
silk polka dots, trimmed by narrow
band Of Alaska sable and three medal
lions of Furnished gold, this waist may
be worn appropriately with either a
black or green tailor-made gown. The
back is fitted smooth across the shoul-
ders with tiny plaits in the centre at
the waist line. A perfect fit is OBJ.
tanned by using an UNDERMINED gore.
The fullness in front is adjusted in
two clusters of three tucks on each
shoulder gathered at the waist in a
slight blouse. The right front crosses
over to the left side, fastening under
three sharp points, which are outlined
by a narrow band of fur and decorated
with medallion of FURNISHED gold.
The collar is fashionably shaped
with two points in the back, the novel
feature being the slope in the centre
front, giving more depth to the collar
at that point than heretofore.
The two-piece sleeve is decorated
with band of fur In pointed epaulette
effect. The scallops at the wrist are
fur trimmed.
Cashmere, Henrietta, French fan
mel, or Venetian would be appropriate
for this design. Velvet of contrasting
color may be used for the collar and
cap on the shoulder, with narrow rib
bon velvet applied fiat in place of the
fur.
To make this shirt waist in the me-
dunn size will require one and one
half yards of material forty-four
inches wide. MAY MANTON.

FREELAND, FEBRUARY 1s, 1900


From Wilmington, Del, Justice.
Macaulay said that the crisis OF the
American republic would come in its
second century. If all the signs do not
play us false the realization of that
prediction is nearer today than many
presume. Certainly no sane and observ-
Ing man can question the decadence OF
the American spirit OF liberty and fair
play, and the gradual lapse of those
characteristics that gave strength and
vigor to the republic of the early CEN
try.
In the old days Americans were i'm
bued with the same love of freedom and
government that',nerve the Boer
and Filipino today. There were an
old'fashioned sense of honesty and
justice, vigorous insistence on indi-
Vldual rights, desire to help ones
neighbor while helping ones self To-
day these are all gone and in their
place we find aggrandizement, cunning,
neglect OF rights, Indifference to Justice
and lofty scorn of all elements that 90
to make up nation of healthy, yigor-
Gus, free men.
Living by such miserable composite
standard America has truly become a
mighty paradox. Here, and now, are
the phenomena that denote either
greatness or weakness, that indicate
either vigor or decline. Between the
two the forces of decay seem uppermost.
Emerson declared that America was
opportunity. And it was in his day
and generation. Before the civil war
and the ensuing period of privilege
and monopoly, eliminating in the Nc
kinleys and Hannas of the present day,
there were, comparatively speaking,
the opportunity for men to acquire a
lair living and retain their spirit and
love of liberty. But today not only is
the field OF activity closed except to the
favored few, but what is worse, we have
taken down the ideals by which we
rose to greatness and in their place
have substituted the policies and notions
upon which monarcies and hoe-men are
nourished and bred.
Yesterday the Declaration of Inde-
pehdence was our great inspiration.
Today it is an iridescent dream. Yes
tefday we exulted that Cuba was free.
Today we exult that liberty is in her
death struggle in the Philippines. In

Cyclometers.

Cyclometers on bicycles no longer at
tract attention, and some people pay
little attention to a pers who car
ries a pedometer in his pocket to de-
termine how far he has walked in a
day. The cyclone er, however, has been
put to a new use. The owner of light
runabout wagon having pneumatic
tires has had a cyclometer attached to
one of the rear wheels of his vehicle.
He says that 1t is probable one of his
old wheeling habits, ard tn he put
the little indicator on the wheel to tell
how far he drives each day. The wheel

Our Philippine war has had its first
birthday. Last Sunday night it was a
year old. We have been taught sedulous-
ly by the administration during these
twelve months that it is a war begun by
the Flipino-Aguinaldo struck the first
blow, and IL was "a foul one," the
president told us last autumn Now
1t turns out that this was neither
supertcially nor really true. Not only
was the cause of the strained state of
affairs that made war possible occasion
ed by the presidents proclamation,
which General Otis censored in order to
extract the gunpowder from it, and by
the repeated pushing back OF the Fill
pino lines; and not only were the first
three or four shots fired by US, but these
shots were fired in territory where we
had no right to be. They were fired at
Santa Mesa, two miles out of Manila,
and beyond the suburbs OF the city.
The protocol under the provisions
OF which we were acting at that time
for this was before the senate had ratif-
ed the peace treaty-gave US no rights
beyond the suburbs of Manila So the
war began by our shooting down men
who were crossing line which we had
no right to forbid them crossing. And
yet all last winter we were informed
that the Filipino had attacked us wick
edly, ungratefully, and that we w,re
acting on the defensive.-Phila Ctty and

Should Learn to Cook.

The ability to make loaf Of good
bread is an accomplishment which ev-
cry woman should possess before she
gets married. 1t is of no use for a
woman to think that she can hold a
mans affections very securely when
she feeds him on death slug biscuits,
soggy pie crust and burned or half
cooked meats. Men do not live to
eat, but they have to eat in order to
live, and what they have to eat has
much to do with their temper, their
piety and their health. A woman
should take a pride in being expert
and accomplished in her cooking and
the care of her home, just as a man
does in being expert in his business
or profession
