A Peoples President

What Woodrow wilson's leadership
OF the Democratic party means can
best be told In Woodrow Wilson's
own words:
am interested In parties. my
friends, only as instrumentalities.
am devoted to the Democratic party
because | believe that amid a multi
tude OF blunders, no doubt. IL has been
trying to steer by the standards set
up In ancient days when our concep-
ton OF Democracy was so clear-eyed
and simple, and that no party has ap-
proximated more nearly than II has
the efforts TO serve the people rather
than to serve the special interests.
But II the Democratic, party does
not do that In fact as well az In
theory, am not going TO criticise any
body that deserts the Democratic
party. II will not be desertion.
There Is only one thing, my friends
that you can desert, and that Ii your
principles.
These are the words OF man who
intends to be no mere party president,
but q president OF all the people. Gov.
Wilson's whole campaign has been In
harmony with this sentiment.-New
York World.

Save the Pins.

A good idea after buying a paper
OF new pins is to cut one line off at
time and not to dive into the whole
paper at once. A sewing basket
should have its pincushion well sup.
piled with pins. and when sewing a
box should be near at hand into which
all the pins can be tossed in n hurry,
says the Philadelphia Times. In this
way the floor viii be spared its usual
pin collection when sewing days
come around.
A pin tray or small pincushion
should be on every girls or woman's
bureau, and the pins should be put
into these at night. when, perhaps,
pin or two will have to be taken
out OF the stock collar or belt The
pins used in pinning on n veil should
always be put back in the yelling
after II has been carefully folded up
and before placing in the hatbox
