MARROW OF VIEW.

The merchant who whines because shows and big mail-order houses take money out of town is sharply criti- cfsed by the Waterbury Republican for his narrowness. That paper says:
 "The attitude of some merchants on circuses and other affairs that take money out of town needs revising. People will not work hard or intelli- gently for mere food and clothes with no musement, no vacations, no recre- ation and no opportunities to travel All of these things take money out of town. The trolley cars and the rail- roads take more money out of town than they bring here. Shall We tear up the tracks ?'
 The Republican says further that eff you stop money from going out of town, you stop other things which we need from coming into town. If other ommunities stop their money coming to Waterbury, they stop our products from going out of town
 Then where would Waterbury be ?''
 This question is well put Trade is voluntary and when it becomes com- pulsory it also becomes irksome To be a success trade must go on it's m erits

MARK TWAIN BETTER.

While it looked as if Mark Twain had come home to die, it is cheering news to the American people to learn that he is more comfortable and that his physicians are more hopeful
 Samuel L. Clemens has made 3. brave light for life, but considering his age and his physical impairment, and the deep bereavements of late years, it looks as if his days were numbered
 Mark Twain as a humorist has put a great deal of sunshine into this gen. eration; and as a satirist he has struck hard blows when and where hard blows were deserved Few writers have such a hold upon the people as he, and the sympathy for him in af- @Iiction Is both bread and sincere.
 Mark Twain may cease to create anything new; he may go over to the great majority in the silence; but the huu1or he has put in concrete form will make generations yet to come indulge in laughter.
 He has had a wonderful career, and has held the peoples attention and interest longer than any other Ameri- can writer, hence he commands the sincerest soIicitude of the people and their hearty good wishes for his res t0ration to health

Picue Fancy Work.

White pique fixings for the guest room of the summer cottage are a dainty innovation that should prove n16st attractive. The different arti- cles that may be made of pique are innurn erable and those already shown include bureau scarfs and table cov- CTS, pincushion and mendfns bag, a couch pillow and rocking chair headrest.
 Boxes covered with this material may be added to the list, as well as innum erable small mats, and. for the larger sizes, curtains and bedspreads.
 A not too heavy corded pique is chosen in the usual white quality, and upon its surface is painted a design either in corn flowers wild roses or chrysanthemUrns. These colors are supposedly laundry proof and may be applied with a brush after the design is stamped or drawn delicateIy upon the pidue
 Both the coIorS mixed with turpen- tine and stencil dye will wash with or dinary care in a weak father of white soap and lukewarm water The added caution necessary in the. laundering of piQsle is: Don't wiring" this material is stretched straight upon the line and allowed to drip dry.

PRESIDENT TAFTs WAY.

President Taft does not think that
 1t Is necessary for him to agree with
 everybody even though he accepts an
 Invitation to address them. The lit rle incident at the conference of the woman sunragists at Washington for which he was hissed, calls out mem ories of other occasions when he dis agreed with his hosts.
 Ets record shows that while he does nor deny the right of freedom to others he will not brock the denial of it to himself Attention is being called to the fact that down in New Mexico he was introduced to an audience with an account of the agreement for state- hood which had been a condition precedent to his nomination. He inn mediztely denounced that version of the affair as discreditaole and wholly unfounded- His Akron speech of years. ago. in which he said that were he to be at home on election day he would vote the democratic local ticket, will never be forgotten by the practical pol i1icians of Ohio Out in the Philip pines the native American element had assembled to air their grievances" and when they had done so at great length he replied in effect that if they did not like conditions there the steamboat lines were running back to the United States. In the heart of the waterways agitation on the Mis- sissippi river trip. he made no secret of his nisgivings over the plan. At Kinona. in backing Tawney, he vir- tuany anronted the sentiment of the great middle west Every time he says a good word for A1drich or Cannon he is antagonizing the average Ameri- can audience, yet he keeps up his of education
 President Taft does not mean to be offensive, but if being true to his con victions is offensive he does not mind This is really a good quality and likely to be commended rather than condemned by the people.

MIR LAKE AT wILLlMANTlc.

The Hon Everett J. Lake is being sharply criticised for his speech at WilIimantic, because he didn't say enough. not because he said too much or did not say what he had to say well.
 MT. lake held the following state ment up for the observation of the taxpayers:
 From 1900 to 1907 the record of the states finances was one to be proud of. In 1907 the debt of the state was abolished The debt is now two mill lions I am not criticising the expen- 6itures of the last two years but you know that as soon as there is indebt- eduess there should be an effort at economy
 There is no question but this state ment will receive the prompt endorse nent of the taxpayers regardless of party and there is enough to it to reflect what MT. Lakes policy would be should he be the next republican nominee
 The Courant takes occasion to say that the address was interesting and pleasing. but that it did not impart as much political information as his hearers had been led to expect from the introductioni But it must be ad- Tnitted that MT Lake is not responsi- ble for the expectations or disappoint- ments of his hearers. The speaker who succeeds in pleasing and interest irs benQueters is credited with hay ing done well enough
 MT Lake must be credited with having shown how he stood upon the leading policies of his party; and the time does not appear to be ripe yet for him to tell what he would do.

Beware of Rardsr.

Short women, especially if they are stout, should beware of the skirt hem med around the bottom with a. con- trasting color, for it will cut their height. This fashion is attractive view ed upon figures exhibited in the shops and no doubt many women will be strongly tempted to adopt it. hence this word Of caution.s
 Some of these hems are as wide as IS inches at their deepest points, for, fortunately, all of these borders are not arranged with a perfectly straight upper edge The broken line, of course, makes the mode more becoming to the average figure.

Washina PiIIows.

Forerunners of the spring house. cleaning are the pillows that must be cleaned, and which the careful house. wife may desire to wash
 The task is tedious, but it need not be a hard one. Select a clear, sunny day. Empty the feathers or down into bag of cheesecloth, fasten tightly at the top and wash in strong soapsuds, with little ammonia in the water.
 Rub the bag between the hands, moving it around in the water for 10 or Is minutes, rinse twice in clear hot water and, without squeezing, hang to drain and dry in the sun and air. While drying pull the bag apart sey- eral times.
 When they are quite dry put them in a larger bag and beat for perhaps 10 minutes with rattan whip The feathers will be fluffy and like new.
 The ticks should have been washed meanwhile. roned and ready to re- ceive the fresh feathers.
 A few feathers, of course, sift through the bag and are lost, but hard ly enough. to make any difference For this reason, however, the feather bags should not be washed in set pipes as there is danger of clogging the drain

 Mattresses should be half-turned and allowed to stand in a draft. so that the air will play all around them same way if you want to keep them from getting musty.
 Mattresses should be cleaned and re- made every three years if you want them to keep their springiness.
