Green willow or fibre rush furniture,
with bright cushions Of creotonne, is
a veranda favorite and one which is in
perfect harmony with the verdure Of
summer. Many. however. prefer gray
or russell brown tones, in these wicker
furnishings, Offering a contrast to,
rather than a harmony with, summer
greenery.
Rustic furniture looks well on the
rough cobble- stone or single veranda
of a quaint bungalow. and good old
hickory with rush bottoms Is another
charmingly simple, yet effective type.
Rugs Of woven grass, or braided
rags, or Indian blankets brighten up
the veranda floor. and bamboo porch
screens may be fitted to shut of a too
brilliant sun, or afford an added pri-
vacy where vines are lacking.

Editor Alverson, of the Anderson
News, tries to make it appear that
papers which are advising Gov. Nc
Creary not to make the race for
Senator, are not his friends. As the
i. j. has offered the Governor this
gratuitous advice, we suppose we
come in the category. Now, we
think, otherwise, however. Time
and again. during his canvass for
election we heard our friend, the
governor, declare that he desired only
to round out his splendid career in
the governors chair, and would new
err ask the people of Kentucky for
office again. Because we remind
him Of his solemn pledge and ex-
press the sincere hope that our con-
fidence in his word will not be mis-
placed, is no indication that we are
not his friend. Indeed, we think our
position is more indicative or loyal
and sincere friendship, than the po-
sition of those who are seeking to
have him violate his solemn promise
to the people when they. elected him
governor. Just ponder on this Ia
while.
