Read the advertisement of Jayne &
Crosby, No. 10 Liberty street, New York
which appears in this paper. Their New
Departure" Wardrobe Hooks are all that
| is Claimed Tor them. The writer is using
! them and knows whereof he speaks. A
! very good idea Of what these novel and
useful little articles are may be had from
! the illustrations in the advertisement.
! Read the article on the editorial page OF
| the GOLD LEAF this week headed Third
! Party Hypocrisy" This view of the mat
! ter is no stretch of the imagination, and
| thinking white men should stop and re-
! feet before they determine to cast theil
