REPUBLICAN CAUCU A republicafl caueus for the nemi- nation of muniecipal ofcers will be Il this evening at the There should he a large attendance and the nominees should be men of repute and amility who will command the confidenca of the peopie In city aftairs this is the off year: but it is important to the republicans if they would return to power in 1912, Since carelessuess now would make resuits them more uncertain. It is barely possible this may be the 1ast eaucus to be.called for the nomi- nation of partisan candidates, for if the voters approve of the new charter, a new form of government will be in- augurated and the public oMcials to be chosen by the people will be great- Iy reduced.

In one town where a public mesting was held last Saturday evening to disouss the advantages and disadvantages of such arrangements, at which meeting an audience of six hundred were pres- ent. only six raised their hands at the close of the speaking expressing a de- sire for President Taft's proposed ar- rangement.” —~Waterbury Record. And yet some of our friends around here warn us that the proposed recip- rocal trade agreement gives the Cana- jan farmers the best end of it.—St. bans Messenger. One thing is apparent, the farmers on both sides of the line who. believe that the reciprocity treaty between these two countries is going to ruin the farmers of both countries canpot be right. That seme of them on hoth sides may experience changes and they may be adverse and ‘beneficial, is aquite likely. Here in this country we believe the greater advantage {8 te this republic because we are twenty times as large and will need large quantites of lum- ber which will be had at lower sates.

Another departure in these articies is having some of the toilet boxes with mirror- mounted tops. The stunning Navajo _blankets in ¢he goft grays, blacks and whites, as well as in the more brilliant colorings, are to be found now in a large assort- ment of sizes. Aside Trom the large blankets which do sevice ‘as rugs, ‘couch covers or wall decorations, one may find the small squares for table covers, and still smaller ones for sofa pillow’ covers. These blankets wash quite as well as ordinary blankets, for the colors used are fast ones. Venetian _A girl who has just come back from Venice wore areund her neck over a dark blouse o mecklace of rope gold tied Joose at the bust line and. finish~ od with two long tassels.

She strung 12 strands o course yellow sllk with the tinlest gilt beads to he found in this country, twisted them into a tightly coiled rope and finished the end with a big gold bead from which hung the tassels of the small ones. The effect was not so good as in the Venetian chain, for the same deli- cate beads could not be found, but a showy and unusual ornament was achieved to brighten a dark blous that of tin; ce Fash Frill. Paris has revived the lace ruffles and frills of the Georgian period, which means that this quaint and dainty fashion will be seen very short- ly on this side, as the American wom- an_inyariably follows the fashions Which Paris sets. Cemspicuous among the new lace ac- cesgories of this period are the frills that fall over the hand. Another striking development of the frill_is seen on the houlevards of the French capital. Tt is a black satin ribbon folded around the neck, the ends tied in a chic bow beneath the chin. From this falls a full frill of white cambric or lace in the form of the iabot. In the lace frills falling over the Xnuckles is sounded the return of the long tight sleeve. Sleeves are of lace or are tucked, but are always tight- fitting and made of the one material. Frills are extremely smart with coat and skirt suits, and if ecru or cream color in selected a more artistic effect Wwill be secured.

Then she heard about Fels-Naptha. Now she is washing those things her- self, without hot water, and doing it far better than if she boiled them. She has found >ut that Fels-Naptha cleanses things more thoroughly in cool or lukewarm water, in little time, than if they ‘were boiled till Doomsday. If you live in a room, apartments ot occupy a whole house, take a chapter out of this young woman’s experience. Boiling is unnecessary when you use Fels-Naptha, either in winter or summer.
