United States Senator Boies Penrose, who
declared that the Dean is to be made

That the withdrawal has not met with

ending, which has been marked by events
of considerable import GubenatOrial and
senatorial nominees continued their up
State campaigns and made speeches in
numerous towns and cities.

the Republicans have held their lead in
both city and State. The enrolment for
the second day in the city is given as
S3O1s, making a total for both days of
approximately 10000. OF this number the
Republicans claim l25 700, the Democrats

about 50 900 are non-partisan.
In the State the Republicans also held
the lead, but the proportion is not as

"AS GOES MAINE"

The election held in Maine is significant
of three things the decrease in the Pro-
gressivc vote, the corresponding increase
of the Republican vote and the fact that
the State, which Is considered a political
barometer for the whole country, went
Democratic by an increased plurality over
that obtained by Mr. Wilson In 1912.
The Republicans gained 1851 and the
ProgresSives lost 30 4Gl.
Haines, the Republican candidate for
Governor, received 1852, as compared
with 26l2l votes cast for Taft in 1912;

Demakns Would

If there is a deal Of petulance and
frettlng, peevish complaint and harsh
reproof in that which is to follow, then
1t will be found that Ruth Bradley is
the cause of it all.
Ruth Bradley is one of Peggy's dear
est friends. Their intimacy has dated
from time some II or IS years ago,
when both were taking the air in their
go-carts. Each expressed pleasure and
hoped that they would meet again. Nor
was either disappointed in this, as they
have met again frequently.
1t is related in the Gray family,
though Peggy always disputes 1t, that
even upon the occasion of their first
meeting Peggy was quite envious of
Ruth's lovely attire. 1t was clear at
the time that she wanted a bonnet like
Ruth's. And she tore as we'll as she
could the pink ribbons from her
dresses, demanding blue ones in their
place. Ruth had worn blue.
| However this may be. it is certain
that today Peggy views with most
envying eyes every little article OF
dress that Ruth displays. And the dis
heartening feature of 1t is that Ruth
makes all her own clothes. It's a gift,
as they say. She is not perhaps the
prettiest girl in, town, but she is Ger
tainly the best dressed And her taste
is exquisite.
It was with a determination to do as
we'll that Peggy set to work on dress
of her own. She had watched and
helped Ruth and II seemed rather easy
If she really could manage her OWL
clothes she could have new ones just
about whenever she pleased. Mother
Of course, was quite obliging on the
whole, but Peggy was hesitant at times
to make too many demands upon her
And should she be able to make hel
own things 1t would give her en- indie
pendence well worth the effort.
Mother gazes fondly and hopefully
on her daughter as Peggy bends to heI
task. Perhaps Peggy is anxious thai
her first effort be a success. But, oh
how much more so is mother. Peggy
has slipped the dress on and she steps
to the long glass for a first view. I
appears that things are not what they
should be.
The proper hang that Peggy had
worked so hard for is nowhere to bs
seen. The waist line is far too short
The sleeves are in the wrong armholei

q ONE warm afternoon when you
~ hardly know what to do with
~ yourself why don't you sit down
in the fresh green grass amid the
clovers and make yourself some
clover jewelry?
If you don't happen to have olo-
vers in your yard, skip over to
vacant lot nearby or the park-any
place where the tough stemmed
white ciovers grow. Pick a big
bunch of long-stemmed clovers.
Bring them home with you-hnd
cool, shady spot and you are ready
for work.
You think you can't make jewelry
out of clovers. The very idea!
That's simply because you have
never tried.
Now what kind of jewelry do you
like best to wear? Necklaces, brace
let's, rings or maybe you like real
royal crowns?
All right, you can make them all
First, let's make a bracelet. Pick
out four clovcrs whose stems are
about the same length, tie a loose
knot in the end OF each stem, slip
another clover through and draw
the knot tight. So on, until your
four clovers are fastened together
in a big circle. Now double your
chain together into two circles and
slip it up on your arm. Makes a
pretty good bracelet. doesn't it?
The necklaces, of course, take a
good deal more time, forSthey may
be as elaborate as you wish. First
make the bare necklace of clovers
that will go around your neck and
hang down in front about half way
to the waist Then take a bunch
of six short-stemmed clovers, bind
the stems together firmly with some
flat grass, suspend them from the
front of your chain. That's your
locket.
Or maybe you would rather have
red rose pendant or a daisy hang
ing like a pearl from the front OF
your necklace. Make it any way you
wish in the way that pleases you
best, but br sure to bind it strongly
and firmly so that it won't fall to
lpieces if you take notion to run
Now for the crown. Make long
chain, then'twist it round and round

rather than in the back, where it
should. The dress on the whole is a

over"
But didn't haste it, forgot to
and sewed it up tight. And I'll never

Peggy gave herself over to a number OF
shuddering sobs
1t is unlikely that for the next week
or two at least Peggy will take an in
terest in dressmaking.
