THE XEW CHIEF JUSTICE AP
POINTMENT. In thi city and quite likely in
most cities, the President's ap
pointment of Justice White of the
Supreme Court bench, to the Chief
Justiceship of the same has pro
voked discussion among politi
cians. Summarized, the general expres
sion might be, "a regular Taft apf
pointinput." So far as North
Carolina republicans express them
selves, they see no hope or encour
agement for the party prospects
while Mr. Taft is iu office. The
White appointment, a democrat,
adds nothing- to republican hopes.
Like many other public actions of
the President, it continues to
lengthen the democratic grin, and
prolong the "haw! haw! of the
democratic donkey. The issue
"ability and respectibility," are
quite tiresome iu republican ears,
at least in North Carolina, aud
there is a slumbering; disgust for
the President, for the way he goes
outside of his party to hud meu to
till positions, that by all precedents
belong to republicans.
It is remembered by older per
sons now 'resident I leveiand jd
wanting a Chief Justice, went to
Chicago aad requested Melville
W. Fuller to accept this high of
fice. And it is also remembered
that very few people had ever
harc! of Lawyer Fuller, and how
the newspapers sent wires to their
Chicago correspondents asking
"who in blank is Fuller f" Presi
dent Clevelaud's action caused dis
may among politicians at the time,
thus taking from obscurity and
making prominent a hitherto uo
knowu lawyer, but tnere was no
mistake in the act, either judicial
ly or politically. And so recollect
ing these -things, republicans feel
that tho' in uational power, they
are but spectators sitting by the
wayside, watching the increasing
procession of democrats in high
office, by the grace of President
Taft. What indeed is the Presi
dency under such-office giving con

THE SEASON OF HOLIDAYS.
The transition of holy day to
holiday, is less marked in the spel
ling, than in the change of observ
ance, the way people devote them
selves to the spending of the mod
ern holiday. Particularly in this
cour try is the Christmas time re
cognized as a season for jollities,
not confined altogether to Dec. 25,
though that special day is a holi
day in commercial circles, but
among the young and many of the
older ones dating at Christmas
eve and extending to and including
January 1st, good times, parties
and frolics, entertainments of all
kinds are in order, and the work
aday U limited to as few hours as
possible. , ',
With what joy', perhaps at times
hysterica!, does youth hold this
canon . Mediaeval times have
handed down superstitions, .from

'has evolved,' and given youth

lish literature or are familiar with

There is now and theu the pro
test against too many holidays. Is
it not to be seen that holidays are
largely the outgrowth of a greater
civilization, a more intensified liv- j
ing! That while labor hours may 1
be set at eight for the day, yet '
those eight are so filled with de- i
struction to nerves and muscle,
that the holiday is more needed in
this twentieth century, than in
any previous century. And yet a
holiday should be of value, of gain
to each person. Diversion is essen
tially the prime factor in the holi
day. Make this diversion, which
mint differ in kind from that per-!
formed on work days, of a charac- j
ter that adds to human worth, iu j
happiness, iu a true re creation :

How to Wash Badolothea.
To wash heavy bedclothes make a
warm suds with food soap and let the
comfortables or blankets soak In It for
awhile. Then take a new clean ho

again In another suds. Rinse thor
oughly and bang on the line without

plenty of water over them when on tbe
line. The cotton comfortables will not
mnt when washed In this way.
The peculiar properties of Chamber

FLAGS FOR DECORATION.
New to Make Banner and Streamer
. ' Far Christmas Festival.
There -"la e-eneraily te"temaaS'ilt'
L3firtstmas time for banners and flags-
for decorative purpose, as they can
be very tf actively introduced among
th bolly, mistletoe and evergreens In
the aJl; ball room and dining room,
wbjl for school treat, parish teas,
etc, - they are quit ; Indispensable,
These eaa be Inexpensively made at
komiaa no great skill Is required.
Bunting will stand rough wear and
la cheap, but other materials may be
employed, such a alpaca, cloth, serge,
allk, woolen rep and cotton velvet In
a. ball either silk or' alpaca would be
anltable In a ballroom silk, In a din
ing room velvet or silk or, for a
school feast, cloth or woolen rep. ,
Tbe letters can be embroidered upon
the Dag, hut applique design are more j
effective ..and need very much less
work. If embroidered the ordinary !
crewel stitch should not be .used, as
the effect la too flat and not sufficient
ly bold. Tbe basket and straight stitch
es and tbe French knot .are much the
best for either mottoes or devices, and
all kinds of thread may be used, ac
cording to tbe quality of the ground-'
work. Gold and silver thread, tapes
try SbJ) other wools may be utilized.
Hiving decided upon the size of the
flag, cut the material to fit, lay it
upon a large table and arrange tbe In
scription, pinning each letter or erna
ment into position and carefully meas
uring the spaces to Insure regularity.
In cutting out. letters enormous shse
is not. altogether necessary for legi
bility, fluch more depends upon sim
plicity of form and In the grouping
Of the letters of each word closely to
gether and allowing a reasonable dis
tance between the words themselves. -'
When the motto or Inscription is ar
ranged tack it firmly in place and note
the effect before sewing It; then close
ly buttonhole tbe letters all around tbe '
edge, fixing them to the material.
Should the device be required on both
Bides make the material double, sew
ing the letters on each side separately
before Joining the two pieces together.
Tbe flag may be oblong or triangular,
or the oblong may have the lower edge
vandyked and flulshed with braid, silk
fringe or cord. If fringe, then a silk
tassel at each corner Is a nice finish,
and thin, as well as the cord by which
It Is suspended, should match in color.
To prevent the banner being too limp
a cord should be ruu through the hem
around the edge to slightly stiffen it.
and It Is then fastened to the pole by
strong cords fixed to the crossbar. On
the top of the banner a number of
small curtaiu rings must be neatly
sewed, or, perhaps better still,, loops of
cord, and these are slipped over the
crossbar, or in the case of a flag they
are put upon the side and then slipped
upon the pole itself. The pole is gen
erally painted or stained, and the head
la ot turned wood, frequently gilded.
When monograms, Crests and coats
of arms are to be worked a gold cloth
cut out and worked upon a material of
a rich subdued coloring is particularly
handsome, or those who are clever
with n paint brush can paint the de
vice in oils.
How to Make Tamarind Water.
