TFrom the New York Evening Sunl
"Many years have passed since my
active participation in politics. said
Judge Parker Mt Esopus recently. A
superduous avowal the utterances OF
every day bear witness TO his ignorance
of public affairs and his guileless trust
in rumor, false report and deliberate
Misrepresentation. We now know why
the Judge refused TO stump the coun-
try. He was not posted" on the issues
of the day and had nothing TO say. a
Rip Van Winkle repose on the bench
had disqualified him for the leadership
he was called upon to assume. The
world had passed him by while he
droned his decisions in the dignined
seclusion Of court where no echo Of
the hurly burly was permitted TO en-.
ter. His income was sufficient for his
wants. lie had no ambition but to
draw it and deserve it. lie was a very
respectable figure and his life was reg.
ulated like a colonial clock. A man to
be envied. why did he get down from
his pedestal?
The speeches which Judge Parker is
delivering in an attempt to make a
Longstreet finish on the presidential
track bear out the admission that many
years have passed since his active par.
ticipation in politics. Who but a nov
ice or q Simple Simon would have ac-
cepted Edward Atkinson as his guide,
statistician and friend in the discussion
of the Philippine question? Challenged
to show that the islands have cost the
government S65O,OO00OO, the judge re-
fers bis baiters TO a letter contributed
by Atkinson to q Democratic newspa.

and a confession Of impotence.

The Real Parker.

lFrom the New York NALL
When the campaign was opening
Judge Parker counseled his party that
nothing should be said that reflects
on the personal honor and integrity OF
the president" II was a weak mans
act, himself TO do the very thing he
urged his friends not TO do-an act
which, unhappily, the country is COM
ing to regard as characteristic Of the
Democratic presidential candidate. His
charge that Roosevelt has sold ont to
the trusts and that his cabinet minis
ters are trust agents is dismissed as
about the sort OF thing that might have
been expected from Parker. 1t is a
sign Of desperation as well as OF weak
ness. The Democratic canvass, sink
ing in the swirl Of defeat. clutches at

Three Doctors Opinions.

Buffalo, \. 4., Feb. l5.-Physicians have accepted Dodd's Kidney Pills as the standard remedy for diseases of the Kid neys and kindred complaints R. H. Dun away NJ. D., of Benton, H., says:
 "Doddo Kidney Pills cured me of Dia- betes after everything else had failed and 1 was gwen up to dle. l have since pre- seribed them in my regular practice for every form of Kidney Trouble and have never as yet known them to tail"
 Jesse l.. Lines, NJ. D., St. John, Kan sas, says
 T prescribed Dodd's Kidney Pills for the little daughter of Mir and Mrs Me Bride of this place who suffered from Epileptie fits following Searletina; results were miraculous; 1 have never seen any thing like 1t.
 Leland Williamson, NJ. D., Yorktown, Ark, says:-
 'Dodds Kidney Pills are the best medi- cine l know of for all forms of Kidney Disease. l believe in using the remedy that relieves and cures my patients. whether ethical or not, and 1 always pre- scribe Dodd's Kidney Pills and can testify that they invariably accomplish perma nent and perfect cure of all Kidney Com plaints.

 Gentlemen,-I heartily wish those who are suffering from backache and disturbed action of the kidneys would tpy Doan's Kidney Pills. As was the case with me. they will be more than surprised with the results. I have been troubled for years with my spine I could not lie on either side. Spinal cramps would follow, and words could not explain the agony which I would endure. While in these cramps could rot speak or move, but by making a great effort after the cramp had left me l could begin to speak and move a little, but my whole back was so sore and lame that I could not even have my back bathed for some time. My nerves were in terrible state. l would rather sit up at night than go to bed, dreading the cramps and the terrible backaches 1 consulted physi- clans, but got only little relief for the time being Seeing your advertisement, Hy mother urged me to try Doan S Kidney Pills. After using one box was better, and have ever since been on the gain. 1 have no backaehe and no cramps now, and l feel like a new person. My nerves are better and know my blood is purer. Words can not express my thanks to you for what Doan's Kidney Pills have done for me In my work as professional nurse have a chance to recommend them, and they did me so much good that will do so on every possible occasion.

turn out taffetas that, in a considerable measure, bow to the dictum of Dame Fashion, the best houses are making 2 number of fine models in taffeta
 For the new idea in trimming the bodice of any costume is as though a lace fichu were tied around the form, just below the shoulders, so that the sleeve itself really commences several inches below the shoulder.
 Trimmed the skirt must be Tn it5 simplest form this skirt trimming con- sists of these wide horizontal tucks from the knee down. which has been known during the last winter season as the jupe religieuse or nuns skirt Then there are the double skirts the upper one reaching to the knee. and falling in quite severe lines over the underskirt, which partakes of the same character as the upper oEe both as tc trimming and cut
 In the soft satin liberty and crepe de chine are noted some interesting in novations with regard 10 skirt trim ming These have the narrow. gradu- o'S'' P'ii0l IT Oiit' SNSNu NIlH QQlll- ing or ruching of the same material ar lace The rest of tIe skirt is laid in the nuns folds. or Aimmed with lace medallions surrounded by interlaclnc of ruchngs
 Still another method of trimming in vogue, especially in the light cloth skirts is the skirt top, giving yoke effect that is very pleasing and attrac tive
 The predominating idea as regards sleeves is ruffles The top of the sleeve continues 10 be flat The sleeve may be composed of a series of ruffles. or if may be only the ruffle from just below the elbow and reaching to the wrist
 And this ruffled style for the sleeve is not confined alone to the costume made of soft fabrics, but is well expressed in simple gown.

WHILE HE WAS WORKING.
The Barber RegaIcd His Victim with nn illustrative Instance of
 Ignorance.

The barber tucked towel under a customers chin and then cleared his throat, relates the Philadelphia Press.
 "A victim--I mean a customer of mine" he began. told me story the other day which illustrates to my mind, at least, that some men really don't know the diff ference between patent medicine and Schuylkill water. It was this way
 This customer of mine had friend who had a great deal of trouble with his hair. It was all the time falling out. He asked all his friends what he could get to keep 1t in. Most of them suggested that he get a basket, but finally one of them told him of a patent medicine.
 ''So the man whose hair was botherlng him got bottle of the medicine and dis covered that 1t was a dark brown sti-hy stuff that he was to rub on his hair five times a day. He tried 1t tine first day, and 1t appeared to do good, but the sec ond day some one got there first, and emptying the bottle of medicine, filled 1t up with sarsaparilla. And all day long that poor man rubbed the soft drink on his hair and never noticed the difference. But he did notice, though, that there was an unusually large number of flies swarm ing about his head Bay rum?"

the shade required in this chiffon. or indeed, in any lace, silk or other fabric, one has but to send goods and a sam pie of the desired color to a reputable dyer There was never a time when so much special dyeing was ordered by the dressmakers. and the satisfactory results are a tribute to the skill of the modern dyers
 Handwork of any and of every kind is lavished upon these dressy blouses Fagoting, embroidery, tucking. shr- ring shocking inset lace designs. all play their part. and the ubiquitous bouillonee figures as conspicuously here as elsewhere in the new modes.
 While the details offer great variety. the general lines of the blouse are a trifle mOnotonous.
 If, as is true in the majority of cases, a blouse must be fitted for wear under a coat. the deep berthe and other shoulder draperies are out of the ques ton. Most attractive blouSes owning such features are offered. and for house wear are charming enough but once GTdIDlDtu lHlO tNtu all dulpie COdt sleeve, they lose their freshness.
 The long shoulder line must be achieved in some fashion. so the blouse maker resorts to a deep yoke of lace or hardwork running down low over the shoulders and cut round. pointed front and back. or shaped irreguIarly. The juncture of yoke and blouse and sleeves is hidden by trimming. and the full sleeves have cuffs corresponding to the yoke
 As has been said before. this yoke blouse varies widely in detail The yoke may be entirely of narrow bia, bands and fagotings and inset medal lions or circles filled with lace stitches, and the same open work may reappear upon the body of the blouse
 Or more easily made and very fash ionable at the moment, is the yoke of all-over lace on which are set scroll patterns in the narrowest of bouillo- nees, wider bouillonee or possibly one in the same width covering the union between yoke and blouse

Points on Spring Modes

In the smart shops one sees many evidences of the coming spring. There are enough of these to give one an op- pormnity of studying the changes that the new season will bring. though in a general way they will not be radical

Talk as we will the separate blouse is with us to stay. It passes through many changes. and the modistes have done all in their power at different times to drive it from the realm of possibility of the well-dressed woman, but without success.
 The latest vogue in connection with blouses is to have them match the skirt in color, and many made along this line will be seen during the spring and summer
 Handsome white blouses are, to be sure. still worn with skirts of various colorS and are so useful that women are loath to give them up, but they are no longer considered distinctly smart unless worn with white skirt
 The same thing may be said of the delicate blue, pink, yellow and cham pagne colored blouses which. in ex- travagantly elaborate form, appear in the shop windows They are charming and worn with a skirt to match they would be most desirable for house wear; but worn with skirts to which they have no definite relation they are not according to the latest laws of fashion.
 They are very suggestive, however, these exquisite blouses, and if they do not happen to fill the want left by ones coat and skirt costume. they may at least give one the idea for blouses that may be made in the right coiors and materials.
 Chiffon, mousseJine, lace and all the new silks are called into service by the blouse makers Chiffon velvet and the very fine cloths such as drap ideal which is hardly heavier than silk. are also used for handsome blouses but. naturally enough. are not so much in demand for spring and summer wear as they have been throughout the win ter
 The heavy grades of chiffon. known as chiffon cloths. are excellent blouse materials, for. though comparatively light and sheer, they are really dura- ble. If it is impossible to get exactly
