TABLE DRAPERY FOR SUMMER.
Many New and Beautiful Models Seen

among furnishings for the summer

decoration. Most housekeepers make
no change whatever in dinner cloths
and napkins and use the same napery
as when in town, usually fine damask
hemmed or hemstitched. Drawn work
Is always popular as finish for fine
table linen. and many new and beauti
full models are seen this year. Bor
ders so finely worked and drawn as to
appear like fancy braid inserted
with corners as fragile looking as a
cobweb, decorate dainty doilies. while
Dolder and heavier patterns ornament
the handsome cloths. Doilies and
table colths are always hemstitched
when trimmed with drawn work. The
former come in sizes from the small
square to be placed under finger bowls
TO those measuring 12x12 inches
Table cloths vary in size from one
yard to two and half yards square,
and come in both simple and elaborate
designs. Every season sees it's own
favorite design in damask and this
year the satin spot handsomely Dor
dered predominates. Many womer
claim that this kind of cloth shows
on silver and cut glass better than
any other damask ever woven. The
housekeeper who has to economize
hnds the spot and dot patterns prove
less expensive than other designs. for
they can often be matched in case OF
an accident to set, or II some pieces
nave become worn before the others.
In buying linen It is well to remember
that the unbleached varieties last
longer, as a general rule. than the
oleached and only few washings will
render them perfectly white.

That Useful Tariff CudueI.

Speaking OF the discovery by the
state department of the forgotten law
of 1890, authorizing the prohibition of
imports from any country which un-
justly discriminates against the prod
ucts OF the United States. the New
York Evening Post remarks:
"A useful tariff cudgel is what the
experts term it. So il is useful. i'm
the sense that club in the hands of
a policeman or the puller-in of a
Bowery clothing store might be. AS
between gentlemen, weapons of this
kind are not in fashion, and though
nations may not always behave like
gentlemen. in the long run the armed
bully Is neither popular nor always
successful in obtaining what he
wants"
If the writer OF this curious com
ment was about to be held up I'm a
dark alley he would be mighty glad to
remember that he had with him a
useful cudgel. and he would not hest.
tate to use 1t. He would not regard 1t
as an affair between gentlemen"
Well, the United States has been held
up. Unfortunately our gifted state
department and our acquiescent treas
ury department forgot all about the
useful cudgel OF 1890, and allowed
the Teutonic sandbagger to go through
them without resistance on their part.
Another sandbagger, this one on the
western bank of the Rhine, threatens
another hold-up. He, too, fourishes
threateningly the maximum tariff
sandbag. VIII he, too. be allowed to
get away with the hold-up? Or will the
useful cudgel Of 1890 be brought into
action?

The thinking Is done for them by

fact that more than one out OF ten OF

committee report calling for tariff re
vision at the earliest practicable mo.
ment. and for filling up the gaps,

GRATEFUL KAISER.

keenly Appreeiative Of the Fact That
Our Government Is Now Issuing to
German Exporters Cut Rates Of Ad-

Just now the American ambassador
at Berlin is the recipient OF marked
favor and consideration at the hands
OF the German emperor. Nearly a
column OF cabled matter in the New
York Times of June 20 is devoted to a
recital of the many courtesies and at
tentions which the kaiser is conspicu-
ously bestowing upon our representa-
tive at the Berlin court. Mr.. Charlie

IL is not surprising to learn that
Wilhelm regards Mr. Roosevelt as the
greatest of all American presidents.
How could he think otherwise? No
American president has ever done
anything like so much for Germany.
Somebody has said that republics are
ungrateful.
Perhaps they are. But nobody who
reads the news from Berlin can say
that monarchies are ungrateful. If
ever monarch fairly stopped over
with gratitude. and not without abun-
dant cause, that monarch is the Ger
man kaiser at the present time.

The tariff on plate glass has at

But the tariff on plate glass has per.
mitted the development OF very val

istence Of this industry has had more
to do with lowering the cost OF all

For example. there Is scarcely any
