SMOKERS AND SUFFERS.
A Plea Addressed to Those Who Indulg,
in the Use of Tobacco.

A Plea Addressed to Those Who Indulge
in the Use of Tobacco.
Probably, even to the most inveterate
smokers of tobacco, the recollection of
their initiation is among most disagree
able memories. The distressing nausea
in most cases would be sufficient to
var the sufferer from the things which
produced it. And the warning would
be needed if it came from anything else
than from tobacco. But the neophyte
sees other men who have overcome the
first horrors of the weed enjoying its
after use, as if the burning Of tobacco
under the lose were one of the prime
luxuries Of life. And to very many
persons, no doubt, it is such a luxury.
From a luxury it may become at last a
necessity, or is Sc deemed by the serv-
ant of habit. He has so surrendered
himself to the use of the weed that he
can not command his thoughts or cen
tratize his energies till he has breathed
the fragrant incense.
1t is not to the purpose of these re-
marks to enter into the merits and de-
merits of tobacco, its good or its evil eff
fects upon the person who uses it. Of
it's excessive use no one disputes the
harm, and even the danger. Experience
! and fashion are having their influence,
and, perhaps, abating the evil. Once
almost every mar had his snutf-box in
his pocket. Ladies, even, and espe-
cially the elder ones, had their boxes
by them as they sat at their needle
work. In those days the following
quaint lines were published, and could
be appreciated:
Knows he who never took a pinch
Knows he the pleasure thence that flows:
Knows he the Initiating joy
Which my nose knows!
The shutters have retired. The chew
ers are following. The smokers have
the field, and the point of this plea is
| addressed to them. Remember what it
cost you to learn to smoke, and remem-
Der that non-smokers. especially women,
suffer more OF less from your cigar OF
| pipe the same nauseating sensations
| which you once went through. Though
you do not spare yourself. spare them;
and never let your present pleasure mar
the comfort of others.-Philade!phta
Ledger.

A Few Hints Concerning the Diet of Per-

A Few Hints Concerning the Diet of Per.
sons in Delicate Health.
Invalids, like the poor, we have al
W avs with us, and a few hints in con-
nection with the diet of persons in
delicate health are never untimely. In
families, where the means are not
large, the necessary diet for an in
valid often makes a serious addition
to the household expenditures. 1t is
next to impossible to avoid this extra
outlay altogether. but there are many
ways of reducing it very largely, as
may be seer in the following sugges-
tons, which have been kindly sent to
us by an experienced housewife who
has fully tested their value. Assum-
ing that tho invalid. so far as meat is
concerned, is generally limited to mutt
ton, chicken and game, our CORE
spondent recommends with regard to
the first named, that a leg should al
ways be purchased as being the most
nutritious.
In order to get as much goodness
from this joint as possible for the in
vaSd's use, it should be cut across d.
rectly as it is cooked. and after it has
been placed on a dish. No water should
be put over the meat, and in q few
minutes there will be probably two
or three tablespoonfuls of good red
gravy-the pure essence of the meat
which should be placed on a
| hot-water plate with q slice of
| meat, cut either in the kitchen or after
| it has gone to the table. Some of this
red gravy should be caught also. when

the red gravy when the dish goes to the
kitchen. and it should be put on a plate
with a delicate slice of the hot leg, ono

How Gentlemcn's Garments Are to BE
wora This Season.
March marks the transition period
between winter and spring styles. 1t
is the period when everybody is anxious
to be rid of their winter apparel. and
just IL triie too soon to put on the
raiment of spring. 1t is a period of
comparative inactivity in tailors' shops,
and to the ready-made clothiers it
brings no boon of contentment. It is
the dark hour before the dawn-the
h%arbinger Of better things to come for
those engaged in the sale of gentle
mems dress goods.
While few of the leading shops and
stores have put in their full line of
| spring goods, still sufficient is knownto
pretty accurately forecast the styles to
be worn during the coming spring. The
proper thing in colors will be checks,
plaids and grays.
Nothing has yet appeared TO usurp
the place OF the popular cutaways, and
that style of garment will be as fashion
able as ever. AS to the number of but
tons tastes differ, but indications point
to the th%ree-buttoned coat as the ore

Portable garment, and were it not for
the suspicion that it is in some way as
ISOLATED with dudes it would be more
generally worn The sack will be in
great demand as q business coat, and
loud colors will predominant in its
makeup.
Trousers will be made a little wider in
the legs than last year, but, with this ex-
ception, they will not materially differ
from last year.
The notched collar vest will be almost
exclusively worn.
In the matter of spring overcoats the
Chesterfield will have the call. 1t is a
fy-front sack, reaching almost to the
knee, and will not be made to fit SO
snugfy as last year.
In hats the round-top Derby, with
curving brim, will be all the rage. The
colors will be black and brown. The
cloth hat made of plaid stuffs, now
worn so much, is growing unfashiona-
BILE and will soon be relocated to the
top shelf.

texture of the goods, is the sum re-

Mrs. A. M. Dauphin, of 1889 Ridge Ave-,
Philadelphia, is we'll known to the ladies'
of that city from the great good she has

young married lady came to me suffering
with a severe case of Prolapsus and Ulcer
alton. She commenced taking the COM
pound and in two months was fully restored
In proof of this she soon found herself in
an interesting condition. Influenced by
foolish friends she attempted to evads tho
responsibilities of maternity. After ten or
twelve days she came to me again and she
was indeed in a most alarming state aud
suffered terribly. I gave her a tablespoon

hours until she fell asleep, she awoke much

medicine she believes her life would have
