“no Kind of Home Influence.
It is a part of every woman‘s duty to
dress neatly and ll‘t‘uilllllgl)‘ at home.
It may seem like a bold assertion. but
it is none the less true. that ii woman
who is always neatly dressed is able to
exercise a greater influence for good
than one who is the reverse.
The well dressed woman is always at‘
tractive to the eye. and the eye is one of
the main avenues to the heart.
Other things being equal her influence '
is more potent than her neighbors.
whose reputation of dressing “ just as it
happens“ at. home in some indiscribable.
way casts a shade over whatever virtues
she may possess. A woman neatly d reused
is ready for emergencies. The chance
caller and the unexpected guest find her
ready to receive them. But perhaps the
greatest necessity for looking we]! at
home exists in the borne itself. To the
members of our own family circle we
owe our first duty. A tidy. well-ar-
ranged home is very inviting to a tired
man and the charm‘ is heightened if she
who presides over the home is neat and

I-Rfi‘forv of Sentinel :—-Somcbody sign-
ing himself “A Native Fair IIntter “ in
last. week‘s Republican makes a general
denial of 'wliat I charged against the oili-
ccrs of our association. I did not write
about these matters for the cake of get-
ting into a controversary. but in the in-
tercsts of the trade. I tried to be cour-
teous in language and fair in treatment
of all rties concerned. The general
denial iy "A Native fiir Hatter“ cimply
mlbhcti it a matter'cf veracity between
him and me. and does not disprove m
staleiiients. if he can show wherein
misstated or did injustice to the trade or
its otlicers. I wish he would do so. If I
cannot sustain my chargesl am willing
they should fall. but his more declaration
that they are untrue iii the face of posi-
tive evidence that can be adducal to the
contrary does not amount to anything.
lie indulges in just that sort of discus-
sion which I corn ilain of in our meetings.
I say this is so. i you say to the contrary
you area liar. shut up—uo matter what
the facts may be. I hope you won't get
frightened by the threat against your-
self in the communication. If our evi-
dence is needed to prove what said
about "boyta-ttiiig“ and abuse of those
who don‘t coincide with the views and
endorse the methods of “ wo tins“ that
coniiiitmication furnishes it.
I'AIR flu-rim.
——Tbe errixsi. is not frightened by "A
Native Fair Hatter.“ but thinks he man-
ifests a malicious disposition and very
poor judgment. He might to have bet-
ter sense than to suppose that a newspth
per would divulge the name of a corres—
pondent because of a threat which im-
iliea dictation and insinuates revenge.
’I'he Sentinel will not be willing "to give
the name of the self-styled Fair llatter"
that wrote the referred to. and if by
such refusal “they will be looked upon
as the real author. or as emphatically
endorsing the opinions of the article.“ so
be it. But we believe that the man who
styles himself “A Native Fair Hatter.“
libels the trade when he drclare-s that he
expn‘sses the views of the honorable and
fair minded members of the batters un-
ion. when he iciyii they take the same
view of the matter he does. Honorable
and fair minded men are the same the
world over. and no honorable or fair
minded man would take the position “ A
Native Fair Hatter“ has taken in this
