Write the date distinctly, the day of the month and the year— not just the day of the week. Write on plain unlined paper. Write your ‘*q’s” and ‘y’s” difs ferently, their tales tarned in op- posite directions. Write your “t's” with a cross and your “i” with a dot. Write an answer to your friend’s questions; if she had not wanted to know she would not have asked you. Write with black ink—pale or faded ink bas broken off more friendshids and love affairs than one would imagine. Write your name distinctly. If you are a married woman sign it, for example, “Virginia Andrews,” exactly asif you were not married: bat ifitis a business letter, the Mrs. should be put in parenthesis before your name; or, better still, the letter may be written in the third person. This same rule ap- plies to an unmarried woman. Write ashort, crisp letter; a concentration of brightness. It will be much more appreciated than one longer drawn out. Write as little as possible on the “Ladies Home Journal.” =— APPEAL FROM THE SOUTH, THE ELECTION BILL WILL PROTECT THE CITIZENS. To the United States Senate: “The Southern States Colored Republican Association,” having for its object the amelioration{of the political condition of the col- ored voters inthe South, do in behalf of said voters earnestly pe- tition your honorable body to pass the Lodge Federal Election Bill, which, in our judgement, is nec- essary to secure free and fair elec tious in the South. The best form of government is that of a Republic, but the worat form of citizenship is distranchis- ed citizenship in a republiaan form of government. That such a de~ plorable condition (disfranchised citizenship) is the fate of the color- ed citizens inthe South, is now admitted by both political par- ties. We do not seek “denomina- tion” over the white people ot the South; we seek participation as citizens in the governments of the South, and the full enjoyment of every political right accorded by the constitution aud laws of the United States. We congratulate the country that the Federal Election Biil bas passed the House of Representa tives, and we pray for its speedy adoption by the Senate. H. J. Europe. of Ala. Pres; D. F. Maftet, of S.

Ceeiidge HARNESS ATTACHMENT Patented NoveMBeER 131TH, 1888. o— J.S. Coolidges Harness attachment is the best thing of the kind ever put on the market. It is so arranged that any one can secure it to any harness, in three minutes, without cutting the same in any way, right out in the street. It can be taken off the harness in two minutes, and the harness returned to its former style without the least trouble or exertion. It saves time in hitch- ing and unhitching as a horse can be attached to the vehicle in less than 30 seconds and extricated in less than 5 seconds. It is an ornament to the harness and contains nothing in its parts to get out of order, the case being so constructed that the straps can be lengthened or shortened as is required. The Bolt is re- movable secured so as to allow the spring to be removed when worn. The particular advantage this device possesses over oth- ers consists in the constructiou of the case and arrangements of the straps, whereby the same may be attached to any harness without cutting the same, as hasbeen heretofore necessary in order to use devices of this character. To the loop of the Bolt may be attached lines 28, said lines be- ing connected with the driver by suitable means, so that if the horse runs or becomes unmanageable, the tightening of the liues will draw the bolt 12, and the spring 24 will cast the piate 16 a- side and release the animal trom the vehicle. Any woman er child can hitch or unhitch a horse without the slightest trouble. Thousands of the attachments are being used every day.
