Speaking of men In connection with

There Ia q notion that they can make
q waist fit better than any ordinary
dressmaker; but the real superiority Of
their work lies In the pressing and
finish. Tailor made suits of cloth
have . distinctive look, and are ex-
trely popular. Objection is some
times made by sensitive women to
being measured by men. The male
dressmaker has introduced q machine
to obviats this difficulty. It consists
of q sectional jacket, with more tabs,
hook and eyes, numbered tapes,
slotted openings, and other adjustable
devices than I could undertake to de.
scribe. He puts It on you, let's 1t ont
here, takes It In there, and finally gets
1t fastened quite snugly all over. Then
he consults the figures on the tapes,
records them In his book, and you
have been thoroughly measured for
the whist Of your dress. l took q friend
with me on the occasion this machine
was applied to nc, Just as though I
was going to q dentist or some other

nothing unpleasant about my expert
ence. I was sent into a dressing room

licit shops and places where rum

The statistics show that there are

can be had, which, with the estimat-

A Question of Grammar.
[Middletown Transcript

a few days ago young man from
an eastern college arrived at Tomb.
stone, Arizona, and registered his
name at the principal hotel. A So
clally-inclined person in a blue shirt
and Wide-brimmed hat, who chanced
to be in the Office. good-naturedly
answered every question and volun-
teered a vast amount of interesting
Information about Arizona in general
and Tombstone in particular.
"Do you see them hills ?n asked
the Iombstoner, pointing through
one of the office windows, "Well.
them hills is chock full of pay dirt"
The young man from the east look
ed shocked.
My dear SIR" he said, proudly,
out kindly. "you should say those
hills are not them hills is.'"
The Tombstoner was silent for
moment. He looked the young man
from the east critically over, as if he
was estimating the size of coffin he
would wear. Then drawing out an
lyory-stocked seyen-shooter of elabo-
rate style and finish, he said in a soft,
mild, musical tone of voice that
sounded like wildwood brook nurs.
ing o'er its pebble bed: "My gentle,
unsalted tenderfoot from the land of
the rising sun, this here's a pint that
you and me disagree on, and we
might as we'll have it sattled ripht
now. L haven't looked in gram
mar lately, but L say them hills is'
is correct, and Pm going to stand by
that opinion while I've got shot
left. III give you jest three minutes
to think calmly over the subject, for
you probably spoke in haste the first
time, and then I'll hear your deci.
sion."
The young man from the east look
ed down the delicately-chased barrel
ofthe revolver into the placid depths
of the eye of the Tombstoner and be-
gan to feel that many points in gram.
mar are uncertain and liable to grow
more so. Then he thought of the
coroner's inquest and of the verdict
"came to his death by standing in
front of Colorado Toms seven shoot
er," and of the long pine box going
east by express with 500 charges on
it, and before half the three minutes
was up he was ready to acknowledge
his error. "Since he had thought it
over calmly" he said, che believed
that them hills is is right. He had
spoken on the spur of the moment"
he added, land begged a thousand
pardons for his presumptuous effort
to substitute bad grammar for good"
The Tombstoner forgaYe him free
ly, and grasping his hand. said:
II know'd you'd say you was
wrong after you thought moment.
L admire a man who gives right in
without arguing when he knows he's
wrong, Come along and irrigate."
And they irrigated.

Another advanced thinker has start
ed a church which is designed to sup
plant all other churches. He says he
knows not what his creed is to be,
but he does know that Christianity
is played out. This experiment has
been tried many times, and has never
succeeded, 1t is the old attempt to
supplant belief in something by a
belief in nothing, and mankind dis
plays no disposition to make the
change. Perhaps one reason is that
most people who believe in nothing
do not see why they should found a

clare their disbelief.
