the Mother Hubbard" dress. In
Mattoon the police issued an order
that no woman should appear on the
streets wearing n Mother Hubbard
dress unbelted, the persons violating
the order being liable to arrest and
fine. The authorities allege that the
Mother Hubbard costume tends to an
indecent exposure Of the person and
Is therefore Immoral.
To prevent injurious effects from
smoking Il pipe a medical journal re-
commeDds the following: Fill the
bowl OF the pipe one third full OF table

when the hard lump Is removed ut the
end of days smoking It is found to
have absorbed SO much Of the oil OF
tobacco as to be deeply colored. The
salt should be- renewed daily.
