DEAR SIR:-Allow me through the
press to thank you and your Company
for their prompt adjustment and settle
ment of my claim for indemnity under
accident policy No. 3937O7. On Saturday,

throwing me to the ground, fracturing
my shin bone, by coming in contact with
the shafts of the wagon, for which I re-
ceived forty dollars, or ten dollars, per
week indemnity under the above policy.
I further take pleasure in commencing
Co. to the general public, for their prompt
ness and fair adjustment.
Yours Truly,
NATHAN LOWEMsTEIN.

Stove for sale very chean.

G. Graham is selling lots of new Gil
max, base-burner stoves. They pay for
themselves in two years by burning nut
coal and slack, or dust. Nut coal is one
third cheaper than lump coal.
A person who has base-burner as good
as new-having been used only about two
months, has to sell it, and has left it with
Graham for sale. 1t will be sold for 25 per
cent less than it cost, as it must sell.
Call at Grahams and see it.

We are indebted to our dilettante
friend of the Commercial for a new idea
with regard to the grave. llervey, with
all his laborious musings amongst the
tombs, has struck nothing so original as
our contemporary acquitted itself of in
its issue of Wednesday. Referring to
the appalling steamer disaster in Euro
pean waters, with whose details the iele
graph has been busy for some days past,
the editor of the Commercial dwelt
poignantly upon the great number of
people who by it had ''found watery
and permanent graves" There is some
thing which shows the master hand in
the aerial and graceful way in which the
adjective permanent is made use OF in
the foregoing excerpt. Generally, a
grave is supposed to be reasonably
durable sort of thing. There is a good
deal of the lasting city about it. But,
as matter of fact, the progress of mod
en municipalities has resulted in the
dismantling of many grave yards and
the disinterring of innumerable corpses
The "stiffs" TO whom the Commercial
allots permanent graves, on the other
hand, have a perennial and enduring
sort of thing of it at the bottom of the
vastly deep. Our contemporary is so in
sistent upon this pemanency that we
confess that we entertain a shrewd sus'
picion of its orthodoxy. There is breath.
ing throughout the whole article subtle
intimation that even Gabriel's trumpet,
though he blow it never so loudly, will
not be able to disturb the rest of the
sufferers by the late marine disaster.

Comfort In Dress

Clara Belle, the brilliant correspond
ent of the Cincinnati Enquirer, thus
rails against some of the fashionable
foibles in female attire;
Comfort in dress is as often disre-
garded by fashionable women as are the
rules of health, and yet some of us keep
an eye open to good-feeling ms well as
good looks. A new device in this direc-
ton is the guaze Balbriggan stocking,
| which is worn next to the flesh under
n colored stocking of silk or wool. This
keeps the outer stocking neat, prevents
the wooden hose from irritating the SEN
sitve skin, gives additional warmth to
parts usually covered too scantily, and
contributes somewhat to shapeliness.
Another article for comfort is dress
suspender calculated to take off the
weight of the over. loaded velvet and
plush costumes. ltconsists of straight,
firm band capable of being made loose
or tight by buttons, and on this is sewn
wide elastic, open at the back. Shoulder
straps are attached to the latter with
buckles so that they can be short
encd or heightened at pleasure,
Attached to the sides are
elastic stocking suspenders with but
tons. The sanitary advantages of a
dress-suspender consist not only in the
supporters which relieve the hips from
bearing the burden, but the bands
across the chest tend to keep the body
upright, while at the same time giving
easy movements to the form. Again,
we have arrived at what promises to be a
reform in the shoe department. Shoe
makers are now callSl upon by many
fashionable women, to make broad, low
heels, and to use lasts that exactly cor.
respond with the foot of the wearer
The secret archives of some of our lead
ing shoe-shops are being filed with lasts
labeled "Aiiss Murray Hill, " "Miss EN
elusive Kuickerbocker," "Mrs. Foorst
Famille," and so on. Each wooden foot
is embellished with its originals actua
corns, enlarged joints and tender spots

formed women to give their toes NOR,

TYPOGRAPHICAL errors, even in the
scholarly hebdomadals, occur far more
frequently than is generally sup
posed; while, in the dailies, they are
scattered around Chick as leaves in
Vallambrossa strewn." Yesterday we
ventured upon an allusion to the
Akoond of Swat, a well known potentate
of Asia, and were a little disconnected
to find that in the types we referred to
the Akoond of Surat. The truth is
that we have always taken tender in
terest in the principality of Swat, while
we doubt the existence of even a baili-
wick entitled Surat. 1t is the multipli-
cation of such trials that make the life
of an editor approach very closely unto
that of a martyr.
