Drawing Rooms,

Fashion favors serving the cocktail
and relish in the drawing room be
fore dinner, and the serving of coffee
and cordial in the same way after
dinner, so the tiny cocktail and cof-
fee Cor teal napkins have become a
necessity. The cocktail napkins are
the smallest of these. Where the
cloth is lace-edged the napkins are
made to match. but many innovations
are seen in tiny "Chantecler" and
gnome designs. The latter are par
ticularly charming, for the wee fairies
of the woods are pictured doing all
sorts of drnll thinRs.

A booth that attracted much atten

made from strips of pink crepe paper
Over this trellis there were masses OF
autumn leaves which had been cut
out of crepe tissue paper and pinned to
the pink lattice work. The effect was
lovely. The roof or top Of the boott
was made Of closely stretched strips
of pink crepe paper. This scheme
could be worked out in daisies, holly
and the gorgeous poinsettia blossoms
It takes time to cut the designs, bu'
the redeeming feature is the slight cost

ON THE LEGISLATURE.

1t seems to be the order of the
day now with the State press to
make filings at, and adverse crit.
icisms of the Kentucky Legisla-
ture recently adjourned. 1t may
be that many of the laws passed
are subject to just criticism. At
the same time the legislature is
entitled to much credit for some
DAVIS that they did not pass, that
were urged upon them. The
Legislature is the creature of the
people of Kentucky and chosen
by them, and the people gener-
ally have very little grounds to
complain, for in many instances,
men who would have made good
representatives on account of
their knowledge. experience and
patriotism, were left out by the
people in a choice between them
and less competent candidates.
1t is time that the people should
begin to take notice-that when
a man of ability and known in
tegrity becomes a candidate for
Senator or the lower House, and

his positions that are adverse tC

Cotton and the War

The short staple cotton situation in this
try is in a bad way. Though the yield in the
southern states will be short much below the aver
age, the price is only about half great it
was year ago with prospect of increase for
effected by the war; cutting this country off
the markets to which it had hitherto had access.
The Republican last spring spoke of the I'M
certainty attending the growing of short cotton
which is produced in so many parts of the world.
Any arrangement of the market is felt every
where. The most likely of arrangement then
in mind was an overwhelming crop in many cotton
then considered but nothing could have happened
that would have produced "a serious derange-
ment
The indications are that the price of long
staple cotton will be seriously affected by the
There is necessarily, and always will be- a limited
supply. Its production is confined to certain fav-
ored areas, among them the Salt River Valley, and
it is unlikely that the aggregate will be
greatly extended. Meanwhile the number of uses
for high grade, long staple cotton are increasing
conspicuous is in the manufacture of
automobile tires. Long staple cotton is yearly dis
placing the short fiber in the manufacture of tex
tiles in which greater strength is required.
The essential thing is that the quality of the
cotton be maintained by the cooperation of growers
in every district where it is produced. The grow
of this valley under the fostering influence of
the department of agriculture, have developed such
a spirit of corporation.

Work Tomorrow for Progressives

Here is final word to progressive voters:
You have opportunity tomorrow to do something
for the party. You can plant the seed which
will produce many votes at the general election.
You have not the incentive to attend the primaries
that the democrats have. Your favorite candidates
will be nominated tomorrow whether you vote for
them not. But you can do much to aid the
party by voting for those candidates and making
exhibition of strength.
At the general election many democrats will
want to vote other ticket than the demo-
cratic. They will be less interested in the election
of any candidates than they will be in defeating
other candidates. If the progressive party appears
to them better instrument than the republican
party for accomplishing that purpose they will vote
for the progressive candidates.
Let every progressive be at the polls tomorrow
and let him see that every other progressive goes.
