PORTLAND, MAY Is. 1889.


H\HE Glove Depart
i ment will offer today
two or three small
lots of Misses Isle Thread
Gloves the prices on which
have been from 25c to soc
a pair-for I5c. Nearly
all sizes are represented
and the colors are tan,
brown, slate and white. A
bargain like this at the be-
ginning of the season
ought to have immediate
attention.
Don't lose sight of the
fact that the greatest point
of superiority of the
Onyx over all other
brands of black hosiery is
that it's knitted from black
yarn, carefully dyed BY an
intricate process, tried and
MoroagALy tested 6sfore be-
fore being Put into tile knit
ting maehanss.
Other so-called 'fast
black" hosiery is made of
white yarn and the finished
goods dipped. If dipped
too deep or allowed to stay
in the dyeing watts too long
the fabric is rotted and ru-
ined, if too little time is
given the coloring process,
an uneven, streaked, rusty
appearance is the result.
Sometimes these imper-
fections are not discovered
till the stockings go into
actual use, then the inno-
cent purchaser is the suf-
ferer and loser.
The German makers war
rant Onyx hosiery with the
strongest guarantee posi-
BILE to apply to a manufac-
tured article. every pair
that smuts, grows rusty,
breaks or does not fulfil all
that could be expected of a
black stocking, may be re-
turned in exchange for a
new pair or for the pur-
chase money refunded.
Our house has the Port
land agency for Onyx
Hosiery.

fact that many women have made their
own way in mercantile life, and suc-

they labor in the household or in the

tiona1 arrangements and the cares OF

writer of storics-a woman-on thu
subject of corsets:
"a woman never Thought Of lac

until iran put it into her head. Man
i~mrudcntly says: What a dear 1t
tie creature! What q sweet little
waist to squeeze ETC., and so evdy
woman tries to be dear and little
aud squeezable. The foolish parts
is for Il woman to im1gine a corset

the days of Eve (af,er the fall. Of
coursc) to the present moment .
small waist has been an object 10
lire. Yet there IS no real beauty 10

written all over it."
You see = They all feel the same
way, but yet few are willing them.
selves to give up their small waists.

Wolf in 1,sae Tail OF n Cow.

The so.callcd wolf in the tail" is
really inflammation Of a joint which
becomes suf1nsed with serum and
feels soft under pressure. There is
no worm in it. The supposed worm
seen on cutting into the diseased
part is n Of tue tendons, which,
are white cords of the thickness of d
knitting needle. The trouble may
be caused by an injury, as one cow
treading upon tho other, or by ex.
posure to severe cold and partial
freezing, or by the effects of smutty
or widowed fodder. The remedy
is to supply %turpentine or any strong
