Sprinkle the floor with white popcorn
and place within some cunning little
chickens either of candy or cotton.
Niolets are always lovely at Easter

luncheon table centcrpiece have large
round tray of brass encircled by smi-
lax and covered with moss In this
moss have violets growing" their
stems stuck into the damp green
Have small baskets OF violet tinted
raftia to hold bonbons At each place
bunch of yiolets can give their fra
grant beauty to the guests.
Popped corn dipped in violet coored
Icing is very suggestive of loose VIC
lets in shape and can be served with
the candies or trim little cakes iced
with white. violet or pistache.
The Easter rabbits Of pasteboard OF
papier mache are much in evidence al
Easter time and can be procured from
the candy department of any large

- Muos, of Old PopAists' Strength.
A movement which already has very
respectable proportions is on foot to
launch third party in national poll
ties on principles broader and in some
respects less extreme than those of the
now almost extinct Popullsts. The
center of the movement is Philadel-
phia, and Wharton Barker. who in
1900 was candidate for president on
the Populist ticket. is its principal d.
recting spirit.
Much quiet work looking toward the
organization of the party has been
done in all parts of the United States
The party will be called American >
and its platform of principles has been
prepared in form closely following
that of the Declaration of Independ
ence of 1176. 1t is said that the lead
ers have received assurances that prac
| tically all of the Populist strength will
come to it.
