The fact that such thing and such
a paper eulogizes the Parkersbure
Dispatch. which lizard-face says "is
a Republican paper" should damn it
among all good citizens as well as all
loyal Republicans. The Dispatch has
no standing among Republicans gem

gressional district that certain pro.

down hard on Hon. Jas. s. Lakin. 1t
appears that the Hon. Sam Montgom-

election in the interest of Mr.. Lakin.

Romney, but this time to confer, not
with Republicans, but with the &C.
.knowiedged leader of the Democracy
of that county. Suspicious, to say the
least: Morgan Messenger.
8 The Messenger should have spoken
right out and said he conferred with
Senator John Cornwell. The West
Virgtnian had no confidence in the
support of either Bill Conley OF Sam
Montgomery for Mr.. Lakin, and it
knew that their pretended support of
the Terra Alta gentleman was detri-
mental rather than helpful to him,
knowing that they had no standing

the Table.

Salt Lake City, Utah, is suffering from
a plague of sea gulls, according to A. ..
Dusenberry. a hotel man of that city.
who is visiting here, reports the Den
yer Times of recent date. The unusual
~ severe winter in Utah has driven the
gulls into the city in search of food, and.
according to Mr.. Dusenberry. they are
thicker than English sparrows in the
suburbs and have become so bold that
they enter houses and snatch food of the
kitchen table.
The sea gull is as sacred in Utah as
was the cat during the reign Of the
Ptolemies In Egypt. This is due to the
fact that when Brigham Young, at the
head of his much-wived pioneers, en-
tered the Salt Lake valley and estab-
ljshed a city there, the crcrs during It's

MATERIALS OF TIE SEASON
Powered Stuffs Now to the Fore and
Silks of Various Sorts Appeal to
Economical Purchaser.

The new materials look surprisingly
like pictures of flower gardens. for they
show many blooms arranged upon a
common ground. One OF these new
stuffs, a crispy. silky print. was in very
pale lemon color. while upon il were
little garden roses, numerous forgot-me-
nots. and many white flowers. In the
background, almost covering il. were
white lilies. This lowered stuff was
for an evening dance dress and was to
be made up with pipings of lemon coror.
The evening silks are admirable and
one would almost advise them in prefer
ence to the thinner stulfs for evening.
There is something about a silk gown
which makes it more suitable for a per-
son OF moderate means than II of thin
ner material. IL wears better and Is
more certain to hold its style. Chiffon
broadcloth makes a handsome evening
dress, and We are returning to the
merino dinner gown, with its trimmings
of buttons and silk runles.
Here are the materials il the order OF
their desirability, There is pongee taf-
feta, which is a very good material. 1t
wears better than ~taffeta, yet it has its
shining face. Thi5 makes up Eeauti-
fully for evening and can Be remodeled
a little and worn with al Eton for fall
wear for receptions, and cyen for after
Moons.
Next to pongee taffeta. though quite
different, is pompadeur crepe de chine,
which is one of the newest and prettiest
of stuifs. 1t is, as its anne suggests, d
crepe de chine, but upon its face there
are lovely big roses, p%orlpadour roses
of rankest and most beautiful growth.
A %pompadour crepe de c.l.ne in either
white or black. with Biz pink roses, IS
beautifully girdled with pink, piped
with pink and worn with a skirt of the
same, or with a skirt to match the waist
in color, but not in material.
The lowered bobbinets come this year
in a quality which shows a great deal OF
stability. There is a heavy bobbinet,
with a medium-sized mesh. which makes
up in the most approved. manner. 1t "a
the very best material one can have 10:
evening wear in the summer time, for
1t Is very durable, not very expensive
aud very easily made.

up by a plague of locusts. h.the Nor
mons were dependent on their crops for
food. they had concluded that they were
about to starve, when Brigham Young
entered into communication with the
angel Moroni, who sent the sea gu!ls,
which breed on Antelope island, in tina
Great Salt lake, to the rescue. In W
days the locusts were gone. For this q
golden statue of the angel Moroni. with
something resembling a monster horn

1t is probable that not one girl in a
t~housand-if so many-is instructed be-
fore marriage as to her duties to her
mother-in-law.
Conversely. how many mothers-in-law
study the duties of their position?
One of the chief s%tupidities among the
many with which human nature Is az
flicted is that of not taking the long
Tiew.
A mother says: "Oh, my boy is leav-

himself. How dreadful this isl
Well-what did you bring him upfor"
Did you look forward to having him tied
always ito your apron strinSs?' Did
you intend to support him in manhood,
just as you did in childhood? And did
you suppose. in case he earned his own
living at all, that he would always he
able to stay at home and do it? Had
you not observed that a large proportion
of ons have to leave their parents home
and so to some distant place in order to
make the best living?
And her did you intend that he
should live a bachelor-neyer having the
dignity and joy of a home and wife and
children of his own? Did you think.
with all the lessons of past generations
behind you-especially Of your own and
your husbands experience-that the
love of his parents was going to be
enough for him? Did you not fore
see that a stronger and deeper love must
and should-come to him some day?
And is it possible that you were so self
ish that YOU were sorry that this bright
est of all earthly experiences (f it occur
in the natural way and between noble
souls), was coming some day to your
hoy?
