interesting array of household
matter and fiction. The first fif-
ty pages are mainly devoted to
the display and description of
gowns designed for spring and

with them. The end of the book
is reserved for articles relating
to household affairs, among
which are the three sections of
matter contributed by the read
ers of "The Designer" contain
ing many practical bits of advice
about children, homes and wage
earning. Simple entertainments,
suitable for little home evening
affairs, are always given and in
the March number some verse
suitable for recitation is includ
ed. The puzzle pages, the Fash
ion Notes for Men, the practical
advice about how to make and
keep oneself beautiful, the lect-
ures by a florist on how to grow
flowers all regular departments
of the magazine-are full of es-
pecial interest this month. The
fiction is made a feature in the
March number.

Greenville, President Roosevelt
naming w. E. HALEY, our etti-

ton. However, the adjournment
of Congress on Monday without
any action being taken by the
Senate annuls all these appoint
ments for the present, and they
will have to be made over again.
Mr.. HALEY had the endorsement
of both our Republican executive
and central committees and Sen

fled for the position this action
of the Senate is to be deplored.
