CAUSE OF THE REACTION.

Star-If there is a hostile under
current in the community towards the
strike prosecutions, it may be attrib-
uted largely to the strenuous and naus-
eating efforts of a certain newspaper to
show itself the friend of the planters.
1t has been SO anxious in this regard
that it has thrown decency to the winds
and produced some of that reaction
of sentiment which always follows pub
locations of the sort in question.

Charm of the Apron.

Nowadays, when woman wishes to
subdue man or win him to her whims,
she puts on her finest frock and wooes
him. Foolish girl so to trouble her
self! She could do it twice as easily
and many times as cheaply if she were
TO top off an old gown with any pat
tern of apron. Every kind is an arrow
in her CULVER. At least the Cleveland
Leader says so. When she wears one
of the kitchen brand tha& runs from
collar to hem of skirt, baren her white
arms and mikes up a batch of flap
Jacks, she fascinates man with her
domesticity. When she dons the par
lor or gold thimble pattern, resplend-
ent with the lace coquettish of peck
ct, and SO trim and provocative about
the waist that man has to grind his
teeth and grip hard at the arms of his
chair, he is perfectly willing TO abase
his head ane let her put her Cuban
heels ON his neck.
