RECREATION a NECEsSIT1

Recreation is an act by which person
exhausted by physical or mental work is
recrcatcd, made over good as new The
ancients invented the word, and seem to
have had pchctration that was in adj
vance of The physiological knowledge of
their day
But recreation in popular usage, has
dropped down from recreation, almost as
far as ''hoiday has dropped down from
holy day" Ali sorts Of sports and pleas
ure-seclling are iumblcd together and call
edrccrcations That, however, alone is a
recreation which, nterchangng with GUS
tomary labor, aids in Keeping the system
in state of high health, orhclps to restore
it after undue exhaustion.
What may be recreation to one nan may
not be recreation to his neghbor i dance
may thoroughly recreatc some parties, but
it is seldom a benefit 10 the class addicted
to it, and never us generally INDUCED in

Exhausted muscles are equally reereated

The overtaxed housewife and mother is
best renovated by pleasant ride, by a con-
genial visit to pleasing scenes, and by
really dverting amuscmcnts. Often an
hour or two day with some instructive
or entertaining book may actually keer
her from becoming mduly strained by hel
cares and work
Brain-worLers may lind recreation even
in varying their mental employmeuts.

CLOTHING.
1.-THE SWELLED HEAD"

The above term, like "chcstnuts, "
originated in the dramatic profession,
and Is thus applied: When man be-
comes so pufred up with sense of his
own importance as to imagine the pub
lie is deeply interested in every move
he makes and every word he uttcrs,
men of well.balanced minds quietly
suggest "swcllcd head" 1t generally
develops on men of small physique and
limited intellect. "Swelled heads"
are to be found in various walks of
life, even in the clothing business,
where they really imagine you are
COMPELLED to buy your raiment
from them and pay cxorbitant prices
for the goods you purchasc-simply
for the HONOR of having their names
on the clothes you wear.
Now, there Is nothing abnormal
about the size of our craniums--just
mere common, ordinary, everyday
kind of heads. We do not claim to
have o monopoly of the honor, the in
tcgrity, or the business of our city, but
we make the modest and wcll-founded
claim of having as fine and wcll.se-
lected stock of Clothing for men and
boys as was ever exhibited in Wash
ington, and we sell them at prices that
light expense account combined with
care and judgment in buying, can
alone enable us to do.
This week especially we would re-
spcctfully ask you to look in our show
windows, and we are much mistaken
If the goods and prices there exhibited
will not tempt you to invest in an over
coat, suit, or pair of trousers for
yourself or your boys. Our goods,
whether for man. youth, boy, or
child, are correct in cut, faultless in
make, and perfect in fit. Our prices
are lower than the lowest.
