EDITORIAL COMMENT.

So little can be truthfully said
yainst the personal char .oters of
Mr.. Edward O. Stokes n Mr.
Charles G. Black, the respective can
didates of the two great parties o
the highsofice Of governor of this
State, that the ultra partisan speakers
ond writers OH both sides are making
use of the grossest and most malioi-
GUS of liDels.
AS an instance investigation of the
charges made by certain Republican
speaker and newspapers that Mr.
Black was the volunteer counsel for
the ballot-to OK suffers in Hudson
O unity, fourteen years ago, has shown
that tho Democratic candidate for
governor cannot be justly criticised
for his connection with those notori-
GUS cases. The only truth in the q alta
ment is that Mr.. Black, then a young
practitioner. was assigned by Suprem me
Court Justice Job Lirpincott as coun-
sci for one of the accused men, who
had no lawyer, and that he served in
that capacity for twenty-four hours
only, when paid attorneys, retained
on behalf of all the defendants, re-
lieved him of the duty imposed upon
him by the court.
There is no excuse for such q mali
C GUS and entirely unwarranted at
tack upon the personal character of
the Democratic candidate. But many
of the Democratic attacks upon Mr..
Stokes are just as unfounded and jest
as malicious. -Passaic News.

and easy methods. Ribbon work,
however, is really easy and produces
the most effective and most rapid re.
suits in embroidery known. With
very narrow white linen braid It
makes a durable and effective TRIM
ming on colored linens, and with ar-
row satin baby ribbon it will give
an elaborate finish to a dinner or bail
gown.
/: The New York Tribune says that
a running pattern of bowknots and
flowers, with the stems and tendrils
put in with embroidery silk or linen
floss, according to the kind of ribbon
employed, is the easiest and prettiest.
Trace a design something in the char
acter of the example given with a
hard pencil lightly on the material.
The bowknots are laid on with the
braid or ribbon, gathering h latter
on one side to make the required
turns. When the fat work is finished
thread a darning needle with the mar
row fat ribbon or braid and make the
leaves. This is done by taking one
stitch of the length required and then
turning in the edges to make a sharp
point at one end, shaping the leaf
with the fingers to the rounded end,
which is attached to the stem by an
embroidery stitch. Round flowers may
be made either by gathering the rib
bon to a point and sewing on the little
round disk, or, as in the case with
daisies, making the petals by n long
stitch like the leaves. The running
design given in the illustration has
been carried out on pale green linen
with fiat, narrow white linen BRAID
with excellent effect.

A CHICAGO GIRLS SECRET.
she Says That Swiss Worn over
White Wash Silk Has the Eff
feet of Organdy.

"Where did you get that exquisite or
candle waist?" asked a girl the other
day of a frieod who wore a dainty crea-
ton that buttoned up the back with tiny
lace buttons,
"Tll let you into the secret" said the
friend. ut is not d particularly fine
organdy or swiss, rather, for it is swiss,
which washes better than the organdy
but it looks so, because | wear it over
the thinnest kind of a white wash silk
blouse, which Is made plainly. but along
the same lines. This gives the swiss a
cloudy, filmy and Kind of billowy eff
feet, that makes it look like chiffon.
1t throws up each little thread of the
lace trimming, so that it appears like
something costly instead of the ordinary
wash valenciennes, which it is. And it
gives a soft effect to the skin.
1.-THE lining, too, saves the swiss, so
that by washing it out in the wash bowl
and pressing it when nearly dry the
waist itself can be worn two or three
times without doing up Besides all this,
instead of having to lay the whole thing
away this fall, l intend to wear it with
the lining all winter. Try it yourself"
added the girl, generously, "but be sure
and get the softest and lightest silk pos
sible, as a more expensive quality will
not mix so artistically with the waist
fabric and look so much like a part of it. "

DESIGNS FOR SILK QUILTS.
Our Grandmothers and Mothers Took
Delight in Doing This Use
full Fancy Work.

In order to make an effective quilt
the silk pieces must be carefully as
sorted. placing the very dark and the
very light in separate piles. The me-
dunn shades can be used as light only
when combined with black or the dark
green's, browns or blues. If there is a
scarcity Of these dark shades, it is
frequently advisable to dye part of the
very light or slightly soiled scraps. 1t
is easily done and gives more uniform
ity to the quilt, removing it farther
from the c~razy-work effect.
Fig. l is a simple hexagon, yet it
makes a most beautiful quilt and uses
the small pieces. Exactness in cutting
is very necessary. II the rows OF
