and that it sleeps the sleep that knoWeth no

Referring back to the personnel of the
portraits in the above group it is rather re-
markable that though all of them were
prominent in the political affairs of this
state from 1894 to 1893, yet they have all
dropped out and have been relegated to the
political state of 'inocuous desuetude."
Some one or two of them are dead, but the

The recent call issued by the members of
the Populist party for state convention to
be held June 18th, with a view of electing
delegates to its national convention, which
will be held in Springfield, ILL.,, July Fourth,

lists in this state but a few years ago That
the reader may become more familiar with
the subject which is herein briefly discussed

party lasted through 1896 and the campaign

The above portraits represent the men
who represented the Populist party of this
state in the legislature of 1895, who voted to
the last ditch for John r. Rogers for United

of the legislature and was the acknowledged
leader of the Populist party on the floor of
the house of representatives. 1t was then

entire West, but only wreck of that once
great party is now to be found in this and
other states, hence its convention will be
poorly attended.
The Populist party did, however, come to
the front in 1896 and would of itself have
overthrown the Republican party, but few
Democratic politicians joined their ranks ap-
parently for the express purpose of wreck

and fiounced, and those we wear now,
although fitted at the hips, should have
the old time f1ounces. This idea is beau
tifully carried out in all of the airy,
fairy fabrics of the day, especially in
the embroidered mulls and nets.
Materials are not the desideratum
just now but the wherewithal to adorn
them is where the strain on the purse
strings is felt. The only inexpensive
trimming of the season is stitching,
both plain and fancy, which is being
largely used on severe tailor mades and
on belts, blouses and some of the new
est. smartest frocks.
The new idea of using a chain stitch
in colored silk on cloth is effective A
white cloth gown just sent to the Ri
viera has on the skirt a yoke extending
down the front covered with rows of
chain stitching done in variegated
silks. A pretty feature on this gown
was the use of small pieces of cloth to
form buttOnlike ornaments.
The charming weather on the Riviera
is responsible for many of the leading
mondaines still lingering in that eli
mate. Nevertheless the first meeting at
the hippodrone of Longchamps was the
occasion of sOciety's elegantes turning
out in all the bravery of their spring
frocks. Beige and red were the favorite
mixtures. A very smart young married
woman was wearing trotteuse skirt in

Another frock made with a plated
skirt and short bolero in brown and
white check was fetching. On the bo-
lero were just a soupcon of white cloth
and red buttons worn over blouse of
plated white muslin and valenciennes
lace. A red belt adorned nadam's not
too tiny waist. A crepe de chine frock
of almond shade apparently mounted
over rose silk was the daintiest thing
ina ginable. On skirt and waist were
motifs of d'alencon lace, the former
showing a vest of brown velvet with
turquoise buttons. An inner chemisette
is of soft, plated turquoise blue satin.
The hat which was worn with this cos
tune was a fat almond colored affair
of lace and straw trimmed with sprays
of fuchsias.

the coal dust is mighty apt to take off
the pristine beauty of the freshly white

Next in order is the kitchen. The
spring work in this department is, or
should be, one of wedding out of worn
utensils and the rearranging of pan
tries and cupboards. The well kept
kitchen being overhauled every week
does not stand in need of semiyearly
clean.
To clean kitchen utensils a washing
in soda to cut the grease and securing
with some good preparation will work
wonders. Sand or ashes used on the
outside of pots is another remedy, but

trinity never before found in one and
the same garment.
This happy result has arisen from an
intelligent and well balanced study of
the past, a searching for grace and fit
ness, however and wherever found.
The fruit of this study materializes in
the building up of the present new
ideals from the conglomerate past.
