N PARIS, THAT
Mecca of tho mod
lull, that paradise
of the fashionable,
the stage sets the
stylo In correct
and urtlftllc dross,
,ns it is the final
arbiter In nice
points of social
etiquette and the
interpreter ui mc
best
spoken lan
guage of tlio dny.
And. Indeed, Now
York Is following tlio long-recognlz od
Authority In modish matters very
closely, nnd tlio day may come when
the American metropolis shall wield
tlio scepter in orlglnnllty In dress, as it
now bears tho palm for the most
nriUtltt nrinntnhllltv and realization of
V the Parisian Ideas. New York women

because of tholrmoro dellcate.and con
servative taste. Tho Parisian woman
wears tho novelty In nil its crudenoss.
Tho Now York wonmn modllles It and
betters It every time. And it has be
come quite the custom for modistes in
Gotham, following tho Parisian idea,
to be eager purchasers of first night
scats whenevern new society play Is to
be given at one of our leading theaters,
because hero, as in Paris, tho nowest
nnd most artistic dress Ideas are sure
to havo their possibilities realized by
tho women behind tho footlights, whoso
ono aim in life Is to have gowns that
nre not sturrv. but miirht bo worn in
k any drawing room in tho town.
Children's dresses alwuys occupy ft
largo spaco in tho faH1 ' ironlcle,
and rightly, because u. .. ssos for
llttlo girls uro made In tho liruso under
the direction of tho than for
tiro elders. Now, the first thing to be
remembered In tho making of ohll-
l drcn's gowns in that tho llttlo maid of
' wears the longest gown. It reaches
. quite to her shoo tops nnd tho shoes
, arc not high. Tho girl of 1 wears a
J dress of about tho sumo length, the
i maid of U one two inches shorter, and
I the dress shortens as tho years lessen
j until tho little maid between I und 8
i wears a dress quite covering her knees
rjWf
in tho French fashion. A pretty
model is shown in the ilrst illustration
to be carried out with navy blue cam
el's hair nnd 'cardinal enshmerc, tho
decoration of the roit being put on
every where with black and gold braid,
nnd employing llttlo gold buttons
where tho stripes of red uro let Into the
slcovo tops and down tho shoulder
beams. Tho dress closes on tho shoul
der nnd under tho arm, und the back
Is.llke tho front. Ono of tho prettiest
coats for llttlo girls is made of soft und
heavy wool in changeable old blue und
red, nnd made up with tho new "bat's
wings" enpo. This Is lined with tho
red in satin and has n black passemen
terie ilnlsh.
A protty,gQwn recently worn by u
girl of 14 was of yollow crepon
with a silk polka dot. The skirt of
ono length In the back had a yoko
front, to which tho lower part was
shirred, beneath a trimming of golden

crcpon, the "fitted rcvers flared, but not
gathered, nnd trimmed with n hnlMnch
satin ribbon edged on each edge with
black velvet. Tho trimming crosses
tho little straight waist both at tho
front and back, and has a belt, with
rosettes on oaoh side of the rcvers and
of tho belt made of black velvet.
Another gown was of ivory-white
satin, with a decoration of black vel
vet and old laoe arranged In a particu
larly becoming fashion for ladies not
quite as tall ns'thcy could wish to be.
Another gown of changeable moire
that might be called opaline, so varied
and delicately shaded were its tints,
was trimmed with black molro ribbon
and chiffon uhangcablo like tho gown,
with rcvers of old lace. The entire
waist was of the chiffon, gathered to a
bolt Ktlll another gown was of pale
bluo tissue, draped on the hips and
plaited full in front. The collar was
of while satin, edged witn exquisite
hoptm patterned
and wired jet pnssc-
inentorle. The secret of making a
gown from pictured models Is to take
here a llttlo and there a little, com
bining all harmoniously; for gowns,
like prescriptions of medicine, need to
bo prepared after a personal diagnosis,
and cannot be made up like overcoats,
In job lots all from the sumo pattern.
Should lie lloth Clean and Coif
It is all very well for hygienic beings
to talk about tho beauty of bedrooms
with bare floors, no draperies, cane
phnirs, and Iron bedsteads. It is de
lightful to hear tlieir enthusiastic ut
terances on tho absence of microbes
and tho destruction of germs. Hut the
woman whose bedroom is also her sit
ting-room und dressing-room ilnds it
impossiblcto share their delight. She
isn't fond of bacteria, of course, but
neither does she care to pass her wak
ing hours in n barn-like place. l'"or
her and her name is legion a com
promise must be arranged,
The floor may be stained or painted
nnd then covered with a rug. -This
rug can bo taken up onco u fortnight
or so und shaken in tho open air. Not
many microbes will lurk in it under
these circumstances, and at tho same
tlmo the woman who lives in tho room
will havo imparted the nlr of co.incss,
which is second only to cleanliness In
most estimations. Tho ibruss or iron
bedstead Is the one which she will pre
fer from both hygienic und artistic
points of view.
She should have a couch, but it need
not bo tho upholstered uffair dreuded
by advocates of cleanliness. It may be
of willow, which Is warranted not to
harbor germs, nnd it should bo covered
with cushions. These may be taken
out and ulrcd as often us their owner
wishes. '
Ono easy chair is a necessity also.
Hut if tho upholstery bugbear again
confronts her.let her convert nstcamor
chair Into a thing of luxury by throw
ing over it a lamb's wool rug and
putting a couplo of cushions against
its back.
A little desk with a shelf for books
and another for bric-a-brac, some
swinging book shelves, a screen to put
before the never beautiful washstnnd,
a straight-backed chair before the
desk, and a dressing table will complete
the furnishings of tho room.

Deaftieis Cannot bo cured

only one way to core Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition of the

When this tube gets inflamed you havo a
rambling sound or imperfect boating,
and whon it is entirely closed Denfoess is
tho result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken eat and this tabs restored
to its normal condition, hoaring will be
destroyed forever: nine casts oat of ten

A RURAL CAMPAIGN
HOW IT B CONDUCTED IN THE
TOWN OF RED HOCK.

sults Journalism at Smith City Cur
rent Huuior.
IIE'IION. JAMES
R. Smith, mayor
o f tho city o f
Smith, und candi
date for tho oillco
of sheriff, will de
liver an address
on b'nturdny and
Sunday evenings
at tho town of
Red Rock. He will
elucidate tho sll
ver qnostlon so that u child of 10 can
comprchond it Mr. Smith is too well
known In this county to mako it neces
sary to detail his numerous qualifica
tions; suftlco it to say, 'he is tho right
man for the place' Turn out nnd
hear tho question discussed in his
masterly way."
The abovo notice, tastefully dis
played, occupied all tho space on tho
first pago cf tho Senator, tho local pa
per. Saturday noon found Smith, Jerky
And myself in tho town of Red Rook.
The first things to attract our atten
tion wcro a number of flnming posters,
setting forth that one Riley Holt would
reply to Smith, and demonstrate tho
fact that Smith was not tho man tho
people wanted for sheriff.
The stand had been erected in tho
conter of tho town, and within easy
distance of n largo saloon. A big
crowd had gathered' to hear tho dis
cussion, and were yelling lustily for
Smith and Holt just beforo thoso two
worthies mounted tho stand.
James R. Smith was tho ilrst speaker.
"Gentlemen," ho said. "I will first
sail your attention to tho subject of
free and unlimited coinage at a ratio of
lixtcen to one. Now every man, woman
And child knows that wo nocd frco
coinage in our business. Tho halls of
fiongrcss uro filled with cries for it, and
congressmen nro wrestling with tho
uiigmy iuci lo-nay. ine reason wo
want free coinage is is becnuso wo
want it, and that is tho reason wo will
have It The reason why wo want it
unlimited, is because wo want coin.
Tlio reason why wc want it sixteen to
ono, is because every man present
needs sixteen silver dollars whero ho
hasn't got ono now. I am beforo you
as a candidate for ofllce. I nsk at the
hands of tho voters, tho ofllce of sher
iff. I am a red-hot candidate and will
mako a rod-hot officer, I will "
"Allow mo to ask tho gentleman what
he understands by frco coinage," in
terrupted Mr. Holt.
"Whnt do I understand by free coin
age- 1 understand ttiat free coinago is
is freo coinage. Apaches and half
breeds! what do you understand by it?"
roared Smith.
"My platform is to do good to the
pjople, by tho people and for tho peo
ple," began Mr. Holt, rising from his
seat with both hands extended above
his head.
"My platform is free silver and.froe
whisky. Every mother's son of 'you
have somo at my expense while ho ex
plains freo colnngo to tho moon. Come
on!" yelled tho mayor, leading tho way
to tlio saloon.
There was n grand rush. Even Mr.
Holt's own delegation broke liko a
band of scared untclope, nnd followed
the crowd.
Riley Holt stood with upllf tod hands
and open mouth, as if turned to stone,
as he bvw tho crowd lcavo, until I was
the only man left for him to speak to.
1 stepped back in the shadow of n trco
to see the next move.
'Done up! Hy tho Kilkenny cats!
Caught like a dod-rotted suckcrl I urn
a pilgrim, I am," exclaimed Mr. Holt
"Never mind, Riley, I havo a pinn
that will fix him to-morrow night,"
said a voice from behind tho'stand.
'Is that you, Dave?" asked Riley.
"You bet", and if I do not even up
with that crowd to-morrow night my
name liii't anything," ho replied.
"All 'right, Davy, my boy! Hero is
with you! Now let's go over und make
it cost him all wo can."
Crieof 'Voto for Smith! Ho is our
man!" "Smith and his free coinage for
ever," were somo of tho confused howls
that could be heavd ubovo the din in
tho saloon.
"N
THEHK WAS A OltAi'D nUSU.
I went to tho hotel, which was n&
Jmmfil H M
w
quiet as a church, nnd secured lodg
ings. Somo time toward morning I
thought I heard the mayor's voice
clamoring for free coiuago, and piti
fully pleading for "sixteen to one."
" "I feel as though I hnvo hnd over
forty to one. I tell you, Jim, If this U
a fair sample of tho campaign I will
pull out," said u voloo I knew to hv
Jorky's. "I urn ns tough as tho uyer
age, but I nln't nufdo of rubber. If w
, bavo tiay more tcrtuiiaagca I am solijji
to' use a (run."
In tho morning I learned that tin
meeting hud ended in a low, nud tin
old-timer tit that Guns had been
barred with all weapons, except bare,
knuckles. Tho major and Holt hid
mot in personal combat, und both slibf
took n hand.
"You ought tor seen Jerky bwIjc
Dirty Dave nnd his crowd. It was Jul

I informed the mayor of what 1 hd
overheard ut tl.c stand, but ho sat

The two leaders of tlio rospectlv
parties kept their rooms until dusk
nnd then qulotly stole out, mudo thel

;.ir. Jiolt liad both eyes partially
closed, and his mouth was twisted to
ono side. Ho had to tip back his houd
to look at tho audience.
Mr. Smith arose, nnd spoko as fol
lows:
"Fellow-citizens: Tho candidates M
ohcrlif do not loom up much forbenuty,
especially my friend here, who Is buck
ing mo for the olllce. In fact, neither
of us is in very good shapo to havo ou

way. I feel the disgrace of the affulr,
nnd I give you my word ns a man who
expects to be sheriff, that tho noxt
nrgument will bo with guus und in an
honorablo way "
At this moment the stand cumo down
with n crush, and at the sumc time the
lights were extinguished. There were
!ound.s of a scuillo, the clatter of horses'
feet, and then a rush for tho stand.
When tho lumps were lighted, the
mayor wusgouc.

repeuted Jerky, "and wo will have to

Tho following is the editorial that
appeared iu the next edition of tho lo
cul paper:
Whllo delivering n telling sneech at
Red Rock, xlast night, tho mayor ol
this city was actually abducted from

effort of his life. The lights were put
