The death of Ex-Gov. John Al

The death of Ex-Gov. John Alt
geld, of Illinois, removes from the
stage of American politics one of the
ahlest and most strenuous of states
men. Possessing strong convictions,
a high sense of moral duty and being
absolutely fearless, he was man who
did things. He was a reformer in
the truest sense, standing always for
the oppressed and downtrodden, as
against the wrong doors and oppress-
ors. His last speech was like his EN-
tire life's work had been-devoted to
the cause of liberty and directed
against the blighting, whitening
cause OF monarchic conqeSt. 1t goes
without saying that such man
made many bitter enemies but
they were always of that class of re-
spectacle thieves whom he checked
in their nefarious schemes of stealing.
And it is to his everlasting credit that
he made them his enemies. In a far
truer sense it may be said of him, as
it was once said of another states
man, people Glove him tor the enc
mics he has made" 1t will be long
time ere Illinois has another govern.
or who has the interests of her people
so truly at heart as had John Alt
geld.

Say what you will, the great over
shadowing issue before the American
people is the domination of the trusts.
The congressional elections will turn
on that question this fall, and by 1901
is will be the single issue-if, indeed
it is not too late to settle it by the
ballot at that time. Already the
great combinations are being made
international so that the repeal of
tariff laws will not effect them. That
the purpose of Morgan's and Schwab's
recent tours of Europe. How can any
republican who loves his country en-
dorse the action of the admins ira
tion in sitting idly by and permitting
this consolidation go on until soon
they will be powerless to stopit? Al
ready some Of the best men in the
party, Mr.. Babcock and others have
scented the danger and are now stand

Was a Cold T, brgary.

The monthly weather report Of Dr..
F. Snow of the university Of Kansas
says that February was an unusually
cold month. The mean temperature
was nearly degrees below the aver
age for the month, only two tebruaf-
Us in the last 35 years have been cold
er, in 1885 and 1899. The mean tenn
perature of each of the first Il days
was below freezing. This gave peri
Cd of % days from Jan uary 70 OF con-
tinuOus winter temperature. The
mercury fell below zero four days,
twice the average number. The
coolest day was 3 degrees below zero
on February %. when 80 degrees was
reached. The ground was covered
with snow the greater part of the
month, but the entire snowfall for
the month was only inches, a trife
less than the average amount. Only
six tebruaryS have had 1855 preclpi-
tation. The mean relative humidity
was UNUSUALLY high, and the run OF
wind the lowest On record Tor tebru-
airy. The minimum barometer was
also the lowest ever recorded for the
month. The Total rain fall was 81 of
an inch, considerably less than the
average amount.

Some Nice Puddings.

A pudding is the staple dinner dessert in
most households. While fruit puddings are
the most wholesome, it is not always possi-
BILE to obtain fresh fruits; conseauentlv
jams and jellies must be used instead. The
following recipes are said to be excellent
for simple desserts:
TO make five-minute pudding take two
ounces OF flour, one and half ounces of
sugar, two eggs, raspberry jam fiavoring
Put the flour and sugar into a basin make
hole in the flour, break in the eggs. heat

in a pint Of cold milk for twenty minut es:
then make a custard with the eggs Wet a
cakes soaked in the wine, with lam be-
tween. When the cuStard Is nearly cold
pour in the mold and put aside until set.
Lemon Caramel Pudding.-Make a Gus

drops OF lemon essence. Into a mold put
the juice of a lemon and two ounces OF

for the purpose, and flower scents like
white rose. violet, heitrope, mignonette,
are preferred. They are inc,ossd IN white
silk bags trimmed with narrow lace or
white silk ribbon. Sachets are laid away
with the linen and are sometimes pinned
to the garments when worn.
Ultra smart women subs -itGte for pearl
huttcns gold or silver lingerie sets. These
as rule look so much like shirt waist
buttons that their owners might with JUS
tica be suspected of having dedicated them
to new use. Buttons for the front OF a

Useful Recipes.

To prevent the hair falling out, use
wash once a week, made by adding two
drains of spirits of rosemary to one cup of
water. Apply with q small nail brush to
the scalp. AT night remove all pins from
your hair and braid it loosely, previously
brushing it with long even strokes for about
fifteen minutes.
To reduce your weight be careful about
your diet. Pastry, cakes, sweets OF all
kinds, bread and potatoes should be in

or exercise bicycling Is excellent), eat regu-
larry, but not more than will satisfy your
appetite and drink only what will satisfy
your thirst. Sleep on a hard bed and rise
early.
An eruption on the face may be caused
by indigestion. Be careful not to wear any
thing tight and look to your diet. The
following lotion may help: Powdered borax

ture of benzoine. ounces. Use a little of
this on the face, once daily, until relieved.
For oily skin and blackheads, no cure or
any Improvement will result unless very
careful attention is given daily to the face.
Every night use face brush; the camel's
hair face scrubing brush is perhaps the
best. Immerse the brush in warm water.

A simple remedy to remove freckles is

Indias coral strand has been well looted
to supply the new jewelry demand. All the
trend of the moment is coral-ward, which
is perhaps accounted for by the fact that
SO many smart women, Mrs. George Gould
among them, have taken to this rosy adorn-
ment. The oldest of old coral jmcracks In
the family jewel box have been resusci-

Empire Models
The style of nightrobes changes as often
as the modes in costumes Just at present
empire models are popular, and the smart
night garment looks not unlike a white tea
gown. Some designers carry the idea so
far as to add the ribbon for the waist, run
ming it through lace beading or under
meath widely separated lace tabs. Nainsooh
null or fine India muslin makes the best
sleeping robes. for they can be kept neat
and fresh looking much longer than silk
ones. China silk is soft and dainty ana
may be cleaned with comparative success,
but there is nothing fresh looking as
rewly laundered linen cotton fabric.

to play many parts. Nothing is lost in
effect, and the settings far surpass in artis-
tic beauty those OF the more pretentious
places. At the Japanese shops eolored
enamels are used with tinted stones-gen-
orally Montana sapphires-in a way to make
the conventionally set diamond seem fad
ed lady by comparison. Green, yellows
and browns are blended with harmonious
loveliness. The settings are mostly in rose
finished gold-that mellow, coppery gold OF

other stones there viii be fat oddly shaped

eralds. Lace pins these are intended
for being designed to appear against the
