Campaign Sheet

The campaign of 1870 was intensely exciting, as it
involved the election of United States senator. The
stalwart Grant wing of the republican party was
marshaed to the support of General John M. Thayer
who was then serving the last year of his term
Thayer very popular party leader, and in spite
of the most bitter opposition succeeded in carrying
the republican primaries and nominating legislative
ticket pledged to his support rival legislative ticket
put in the field by the faction opposed by Thayer
and this boilers ticket supported vigorously by the
Tribune With unparalleled imbecility and pusanim-
ity, the Omaha Republican remained neutral in the
fight for fear of offending the leaders of the boiling
anti-Thayer faction The Thayer stawarts were
therefore compelled to issue campaign sheet, edited
promiscuously, in several languages by dozen ac-
tive republicans, including myself. This campaign

BABY'S

Here is a fine idea for rompers for
the baby. Take any simple dress pat
tern, with either round or square yoke,
or a plain slip, and, after cutting
straight across the bottom cas-
nine inches from each side toward the
center. Cut the center between these
points, rounding to a depth of about
five inches in the middle. This forms
the seat, between the legs.
Face with the fabric and work three
~buttonholes in the front, with buttons
to correspond in the back. Gather the
right nine inches in front and back into
a band 10 inches long. and to its front
end work a buttonhole. This band is
to be buttoned around the baby's leg
above the knee. Treat the left side in
the same way.
When the rompers are put on, button
each band around the leg and the front
TO the back. This is the most conven-
lent OF rompers for many reasons, and
is not nearly so complicated to make
as 1t sounds. Bingham or chambray is
the best material.

GOWNS OF LIBERTY

Care About Stripes.

Gowns of liberty satin are practical
as well as effective, and quite as many
colored as black ones are made. while
the same can be said of N soft
finished taffeta silks, says Harper's
Bazar. Many OF these gowns have
Jackets to match. but there Is always
a waist to match the skirt, fashioned
in such that the appearance is
given Of q one-piece gown. This style
Is perfectly possible on arm days as
we'll as cool, for yoke and sleeves nay
be of transparent material.
Extremely practical, also, are the
coat-and-skirt costumes for cool days,
In plain color, with trimmings OF
striped black and white, there is quite O
new model with which Is worn a lace
waist OF white over the color of the
gown. It IS Of flet and Irish lace con
bined. 1t is not necessary that real lace
be used to carry out the model salts
factorily, for there never was a time
when so many effective imitation laces
could be bought at such low prices.

Unquestionably stripes give
slender lines, but they must be used
with judgment and the width must be
governed primarily by the height Of

to her appearance.

lit Is thoroughly coated. Set upon ice
