A Cheap Sunblind.

A correspondent writes: "As it is not
everybody who has the good fortune to
have sunblinds affixed TO every window
in his house, it may be worth while at
this season to note that ii very ctfectual
and very cheap protection from the
suns rays is within the reach of most
people. 1t consists simply in lowering
slightly the upper division Of the win
dow frame, and turning tho ordinary
linen blind outside instead of inside
the window. Thus the window panes
are not only shaded. but a space through
which there is necessarily draught is
between them and the linen. The eff
feet in cooling room when the blaze
is strong is quickly perceptible; for,
rs is well known, the oppressive warmth
from an unshaded window is due chief
ly to the accumulated heat in the glass.
While the bright sun is on the blind
there will be plenty of light in the
room. Should winG shake the blind
inconveniently it can be kept still by
drawing the cord and tassel into the
room and securing it by shutting down
the lower division of the window SASH"

A Coffee Drunkard.

"What bright-eyed man." said a
Philadelphia Press reporter who leaned
against the cashiers desk of restaur-
ant near the public buildings one day
last week. The man in question had
just paid n 10-cent check and slipped
out of the door with jerky movement
and swinging of the cane he carried
which decidedly endangered the peo-
ple's peace.
"Bright-eyedP Yes" said the CASH
Ter; hes coffee drunkard.
What's coffee drunkard?"
"a man who comes in here four
times in two hours, as that man has
this morning and does every morning,
and takes half-pint of coffee every
time, is coffee drunkard. Bright
eyes! Well l should say SO. That
mans condition all the time is the
same as that of a man who is getting
over big batter mean his nerves
are up in 'G, his muscles are all Il
quiver, and his mental vision abnor-
mally clear. He is living at a 2:0S4
rate.
"Why does he do it?'
HAS to. Must have a brace. Used
to drink rum. Had to quit that, and
now docs worse. He never sleeps, he
tolls me-"

81 counted thirty-six red-headed
girls at Asbury this afternoon, said
Philadelphia Press correspondent,
during a ten-minutes promenade.
Yesterday, at the bathing hour, the
surf seemed to be all the while break
ing out in bright spots. so numerous
were the red heads bobbing up in the
sea. They tell me here that the red
headed girls nearly all come from
Trenton. The girls are all vain of
their hair, and are the envy of the
shore. The coor isn't q plain, dull
brick, but nearer that of ripe, fresh
ly-picked strawberry. After they have
had dip in the surf the girls parade
up and down the beach with their long,
bright tresses flowing over towels down
their backs, and, when several of these
strawberry-headed girls gather in a
group, the spectacle is an interesting
one." s.. .a ...

play to get angry and advertise prices
because they cannot buy the goods.
We trust the publication of prices will
continue through the whole list, as we
have no money to advertise goods not
in stock. Such desperate efforts will
not deceive any. The people know
that we have never cursed the place as
