 them and fasten them. After this make a sort of quilt of some strong stuff and stuff this with heair with thick layer of cotton over it. This is firmly nailed over the side pieces left for arms and over the back. Gre tonne is best for covering. A pattern should be taken of the shape by pin ming chessecloth along and cutting it after. it is pinned. When taken of this shows just how to cut the cover. This is sewed all around the edges, turned right side out and tackled to the back and arms by brass-headed nails. A thick layer of hair covered with cotton is put over the seat and drawn down tightly. A little cotton is brought around the front of the chair to soften the feel of the wood, and valance is made to fit with per- haps a little bright furniture braid to cover the seam. Such a chair is a comfort.
 Plain Xii 'hen chairs are made keeping with such a room by setting springs directly on the wooden seat and covering them with burlap and cushion and then covering the whole chair with cretome and a valance. These are really very pretty, and no one would imagine that they were common wooden chairs, costing a few cents apiece. Cushions of any old fashioned material are in place in these pleasant rooms, and nothing in them should be too fine or frail for hard, everyday use. A settle can be made of ordinary boards, but unless some one can carve a design on the back and arms it would better be up- holstered with dark cretoHne -Worces- ter Gazette.

LEAK IN sECOND-cLAss POSTAGE
Remedy Suggested for nm Evil that NC0ntrfbufes to the Postal Deficit.

Remedy Suggested for an Evil that
 NCOntributes to the Postal Deficit.
 St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
 For several years there has been an annual deficit in the accounts of the postal department the revenue falling short of the expenditures. According to the postal authorities. this leak comes through the large outlay for carrying second-class mail matter, of which newspapers and periodicals are a large ingredient. Postmaster Gen eral Cortelyou. like his recent prede- way to abolish this deficit. Hon. Jesse Overstreet, Chairman of the House Committee on Postof1ces and Post Roads. thinks he has the correct rem, edy. The rate for second-class mail is cent pound or fractional part thereof. Overstreet proposes to ad-
 This would be such an injustice that all the newspapers and periodicals which do a legitimate business may be relied upon to oppose 1t. Many things not belong there. Some newspapers offer books or other articles as prizes. and they are thrown into this mall and carried at regular newspaper rates with their Sunday editions as bonuses. for increasing their circulation. Pub lications like Lewis Magazine of St. Louis. which are. sold at igure-1o, 20. or 25 cents-far below the cost of production. which are issued primarily to exploit some ulterior scheme of their promoter. and which rely on their ad- vertisements to pay the expense of their printing, claim the right to be carried at the 1-cent-a-Pound rate.
 The proper way for MT. Overstreet to do is to shut all these things out from the second-class division and make them pay third class rates. as printed books. pamphlets, engravings, and printed circulars do now. The rate on third class matter is 1 cent for each two ounces or fraction thereof If the books. pamphlets. magazines for gratuitous distribution with Sunday editions of newspapers. and other things outside of the regular papers and magazines which circulate on their merits, were put In the third class, the cost of carrying legitimate news papers and magazines would be i'm mensely reduced and the postal deficit would cease. This is the way for Mir. Overstreet and his committee to attack the shortage in the postal revenues. The remedy is obvious, and Is easily applied.

Governor vardaman's Reply.

Jackson, Miss, July Ex-Governor Vardaman this afternoon gave out a reply to the interview of Governor Blanchard of Louisiana wherein he called on Governor Vardaman to prove his charges against the health boards of New Orleans and Louisiana. Gov ernor Vardaman said:
 T can hardly think that the Governor of Louisiana needs any proof of the truth of the charge made by me against the health officials of Louisiana, how ever profound his skepticism may be. There Is one of two things certain, the chief health officers of the State of Louisiana and New Orleans have been guilty of evasion or dissimulation' or guilty of unfathomable ignorance and dense stupidity, either of which In a great crisis like this Is a capital crime. take 1t, by the positions which they hold, that they must be men of in telligence and I believe they know a case of yellow fever when they see 1t without having to hold an autopsy: and believe also, and I think everybody else believes. that they know that there were a great many cases of yellow fever In the city of New Orleans long before the announcement of that fact was officially made. one week ago today
 This is a very serious matter which affects Mississippi as well as Louisia- ma. If this threatened plague shall spread over Mississippi. Alabama and the rural districts of Louisiana 1t will be due. in my judgment. to the failure of the health officers of New Orleans and the chief health officers of the State of Louisiana to sound the note of warning when 1t should have been sounded. I would do no man an injus- tice but feel the wrong done the peo- pie of Mississippi. particularly by the neglect of duty or the incompetence of these men,"
