SUMMER CURTAINS. VARIOUS LIGHT AND AIRY MATERIALS AND HOW TO DRAPE THEM. Tmo Xeat Arrangement. For an Or dinary Window—A Scheme For an Ori.-l or Bay—Cord and Ta«»el». lloiv tit Make Frilling-. It should certainly be the exception nowadays to encounter an ugly win dow, considering the great variety of pretty curtain fabrics available for Bummer use. To name but a few, we have madrases—colored and plain— muslins, delicate china and other silks, Nottingham laces and beautiful Swiss nets. The arrangement, No. 1, In (lie first cut is ;i Blight departure from estab- WINDOW DRAPERY. lished modes and one which certainly has a very unconventional air. The construction is not uncommon, how ever, the characteristic feature being the manner of hanging it. A stout Bcrew ring is placed in the ceiling, from which a long cord with double tass.'l depends. A large, careless look ing knot should be tied around the gathered up portion of the two swags. This design would also be found a simple and effective way of treating a small archway such as may be found in many halls, staircases and landings. Fig. 2 is another uncommon style, known as the butterfly swag. The effect is obtained by cutting the swag in the usual way, giving, however, a little more fullness in depth, cutting out a small semicircle in the middle of the top and drawing this to a point oriel windows unrelieved by drapery present :i very unfinished appearance. An easy method of treating them is to have :i succession of simple Bwags sus pended from the rings of the pole ami disappearing behind the long curtains. Tails may be Introduced at the angles If considered desirable, and cords and tassels here give a light and smart effect. Where economy is studied both may be dispensed with. Fig. 3 shows a little more style and variety. The center is drawn up with the swags thrown over the pole at the angle and the tail showing behind. In this case it i.s better to draw up the corresponding side of each swag sepa rately, plait up the tail and attach them to one another behind the pole. The center of the side windows may be treali-d with cord aud tassels in the sanif way as the middle one If de- Bired. The last design can be carried out in madias muslin or In any of the heavier materials, such as wool, serge or tapestry. Although the madras muslin may be ecru, the fringe need not necessarily be self colored. A delicately tinted one in harmony with the prevailing * tints around the window would be quite per missible. When joining the coiling swags and tails of the windows, the back of the former and the front of the latter should In placed together. This will be more readily understood if a straight piece of material is festooned over a pole, when it will be seen that each alternate swag presents the oppo site side to the room. A polo is uot Indispensable; a plain lath will be found cheaper, and it will servo quite as well. In such a case the drapery would have to be tacked to FOX AN* OHIKL WINDOW. the front of the lath and finished off with a cord. It would improve the scheme to add a small box plaited or Frilled beading. When frilling curtains, the muslin should be cut In long strips about five aches broad, joined together and hem med along one side; the fullness put In may be anything from a half to a whole additional. It Is a tedious Job lo turn down about half an inch on the Itber edge of the frill and draw it up. then attaching it to the curtain by hand. Those, however, who have a sewing machine with frilling attach ment can enormously reduce the labor on a pair of curtains and make very »yen and uniform frills. The Hons« In the Heated Term. The heated term is a trying season for the stay at home housekeeper. Household duties, always burdensome, become more so during the summer time, and yot few women understand the art of lessening their responsibili ties. Wise housekeepers discard the heavy draperies, carpets and cumber some furniture and choose instead a furnishing that is more suitable for the heated season. What a boon to the housekeeper to be able to dispense even temporarily with the dust col lecting material! One can hardly real ize how refreshing a barely furnished room is on a hot, dusty day.

I here has been opportunity to study the make-up of the ticket nominated \v the funon Mate convention, and tbe only conclusion to be reached id that ac ft whole it represents very mediocre abil , ity, says the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Por tlie moet part, tbe candidates are men wifh little or no experience in pub lie life, and, choeen hh tiny were after the usual unseemly dicker between three organizations, each anxious for place, it is not surprising that tbe selections are bot the best that could have been made. As for tbe governor, it jh enough to say ihat his administration has not met with tbe favor o! the parties which placed him in power, and prior to tbe convention he was strict); repudiated by the voters in both the organizations to which he owed elevation to hi* present position. His renomination did not come a« a reward for public duty faith fully performed, nut appears rather to to have been the result of skillful and unscrupulous convention maneuvering ami a recourse to methods that are of fensive to ail people whe believe in clean politics. -Mr. Ronald, one of the nominees for congress, is an estimable gentleman in many respects, but it is doubtful if na ture ever intended that he should e&say to grace the national halls of legislation. He has held office in the past, but as yet no one has been accused of asserting that he was a success as a public serv ant. His career as mayor of Seattle tills a patre in a book that his fellow democrat* do not care to have opened. Aside from the wretched dishonesty dur ing his administration, in which, how ever he was not personally involved, he was utterly unequal to the tasks im posed upon him. Because of a lack of those mental, moral aud physical quali fication* tlmt Ihe sturdy public servant needs, he practically threw up his posi tion, shook the city's dust off nis feet and in the wilds of Missouri sought to regain courage sufficient to enable him to cope n^uce more with the difficulties of the office to which he had been elected. No one thought for a moment of assail ing his persoual qualities of heart, but in the minds of a majority of his fellow ciiiz"ns it wasconelusively demonstrated that, however high his character might be, he was never cut out for the public service. As for Mr. Robertson, who was also named for cuugreasioßal honors, the state of Washington can never afford to huve itself represented by a man of bis daDgerous character. Above all else, the people of thin commonwealth believe in the supremacy of the law, and it might as well be known here *n<] now that they will not tolerate the sugges tion of sending to Washington a man who has enlisted in the cause of dyna mite, liot and outlawry. No one may care to criticise Mr. Robertson for Mr professional connection with the Coeur d'Alene miners' trials, but the people of this ptate will take good care to see that one who, as a private citizen, preaches lawlessness and disrespect for the author ity (if the government is utterly and em phatically repudiated at the polls. The state may make mistakes in its choice of public servants, but it is not yet ready for the supreme catastrophe oi haviug itself represented at Washington by one who now stunds ready to prench the advanced doctrines of the Mollie Maguires. The nominations for the supreme bench are weak. It is hardly possible that the people have reached the conclu sion that the state court of last resort should be made up of justices with the peculiarities that distinguish Judge V\ Minor. Whatever his early legal train ing may have been, his later habits of thought have been such as to unfit him for the duties of a just and impartial judge. He is embittered of spirit, steeped in prejudices, biased in his no tione of property rights, and full of all the dangerous isms that are breeding discontent and standing as a menace fco our institutions. To clothe him with authority to interpret our laws accord ing to his warped ideas of right and justice would be little short of a public calamity. The gentlemen named for the other offices are for the most part unknown throughout the state, and their compar ative insignificance renders it impossible to determine whac might be the result of the experiment of entrusting them with authority. A few have served the state in some capacity, and, as far ac they are concerned, the people are not dealing with unknown qu >ntities. Mr. Runner the candidate for state treasurer, has been a member of the state senate, ur;d it is perhaps not out of order to credit him with the honor of being the only '"reform" member of that body in 1597 who voted in favor of the measures which had been promised in the fusion platform upon which he and his associ ates had been elected. Whether his associates on the ticket which has just been nominated could stand the test to which he has been subjected will prob ably never be known; for this is a repub lican year, find the people who believe in prosperity, plenty and progress are go ing to vote the republican ticket, state and national.

The figures show that the fanners of the country paid $825,000,006 for the fun of electing a democratic president in 1892. It is doubtful if they will do bo again, •'- in no juke or dream, hat a hard cohi fact that many of the Filipinos think that Atriiinaldo is running on (he ticket with Bryan. If the Oakesdale Suu is any authority, all the "toadies" are chanting for '("had." Men are voting for Bryant for superior judge. As usual, the democracy enters the campaign mighty long on precept and dreadfully short on example. DIED. Spring flat, September ">, Melvin Cun ningham, aged is. THE SOCIAIi SII>K. Miss Dora Wisemau recently spent a few weeks with friends at Harrison, Idaho, and while there aswinted in en tertaining the people of the lakeside town. The Harrison Searchlight, of re cent date, has this: The entertainment given at the hall last Wednesday night under the management of Miss Dora Wiseman of Colfax, was one of the pleasatitest that has ever been given in the town of Harrison and it was well attended and appreciated by all that were there. Miss Wiseman was ably supported by home talent, which added to the entertainment a certain amount of interest, that no outsider could hope to inspire in the parents of the little oucH who took such an active part. Miss Wiseman's ability an an elocutionist is certainly unquestioned. Her rendition of "Lanreame" in the statue scene com manded the attention of the entire audi ence and so intense was the silence as it was being rendered that a fall of a pin might have been heard across the house.
