Many tailor-rnade costumes,
notably those in Broadcloth. are
to be devoid of trimming this
season. Quite plain. That
means more saving.
Perhaps your fancy runs on
plaids. They certainly never
were handsomer and the wear is
as good as gold.
Grampian Tweeds, Cheviots,
Homespuns, are all hardy, hand
some stuffs difficult to beat for
either look or last.
| We can't do the actual choos-
ing for YOU, but we can aid your
choice materially if you but give
us the faintest notion of your
ideal.
Whatever it be, we dare as

Prolonged applause followed the close of
the speakers remarks. A selection of the
bend was followed by the introduction of
Hon. Joseph Barbour of Hartford.
Sitting here tonight, said he, after two
years Of republican rule, went back in
mind to the condition of affairs thirty
years ago, when the democratic party
ceased doing business at the old stand.
How did they leave the storea After TWEEN
ty years of national business management
the democratic party made an assignment
IN poEcy ana tne southern COnfederacy
was the only preferred creditor. Then
came five years Of wa the most terrible
and heartrending we ever saw. It was be-
gun by the democratic party and finished
by the republican party. It was a war not
for conquest, but for conscience; not to
destroy, but to save; not to enslave, but to
free. The blood of martyrs wiped away
the chains of human bondage. Because
of the attitude of the republican
party in this war the country stands
to-day free from the blot of reproach
upon it's flag. Then the republican party
assumed control for twenty years. Where
as in 1850 the balance of trade was twenty
millions against us, in 1884 it was one hun,
dred and fifty millions in our favor. We
had reduced the debt per capita, cut down
the rate of losses on disbursements, estab-
lshed the best banking system the world

HER MARRIED NAME.
How the Wives of To-Day Give Expressl on
to Their Individuality.

How the Wives of To-Day Give Expre5slon
to Their Individuality.
In the double surnames heard so fre-
quently Of late women are giving
forcible expression to their desire for
some individuality after marriage. 1t
made not the Sigh test difference in
olden times what distinction woman
might have won for herself. nor from
how eminent family she m ght have
sprung. Before the altar She was re-
quired to sink her entire personality in
that Of her husbatsl. Let him be John
Brown or Peter Jenkins, and Mrs. John
Brown and Mrs, Potter jenkins must
she remain to the end OF the chapter.
Now If fame aud tie honor implied
through a name have any significance
whatever, then should woman be just
as insistent in holding to her own as
the man IS certain to hold on to his

stones daughters being altogether Will.
ing to marry even the prolrdest title in
England and drop from their Signature
the name their fat her has made illus
trlou>. They should be Mrs Gladstone
-, first last and always. Unless
woman has reason 30 blush for her
maiden name. and in that case be glad
to bury it in marriage, it is hest for con-
venience, as well as pride and dignity,
to prefix her fathers title. How fire.
quently one hears the question asked:
who was Mrs. Jenkins before her mar
riage?" and often endless confusion has
been engendered ia this way. All such
1,n 1,,,io Oh
wrote her name Mrs. BroWn-J enkins.
When she thinks Of it, tbs astonishing
that for SO many years women have con-
sented to effaco their parentage and
early life in that Of the r husbands.
Now that young unmarried women are
distinguishing themselves with such
frequency the matter PROMISES to
be righted in short order. 1t is
doubtful whether Miss Philippe Faw-
cett will ever consent to a complete sur
render Of the name she and her father
have united to make world famous; and,
indeed, it seems scarcely fair that
daughters should rot be allowed tc
share with son 5 the fanily digni Ties and
degrees. 1t might be argued by an OPP
position that IN inextricable confusion
would result from this constant multi
plicatiou Of names, until at last the I'M
fortunate great-grandchildcan would
find themselves saddled with the entire
genealogical tree This is as absurd,
however, as to presuppose that every
mother would be Mary Somnrvi1le, a
Harriet Beccher Stove or d Sarah Sid
dons. Each woman needs 1er maiden
name to establish her own Individuality;
but unless this name On fed some
very graf mark of last ncLion, the chill
dren would very ia tn"ally content them
selves with the father, name, which is
theirs by right of birth. -Illustr ated

HE NEVER WORKED,


Ana That Is why He Became LoafcH
and Thief.
4 short time ago a youth of nineteen
was brought before magistrates court
in Philadelphia, on the charge of petit
larceny. He had stolen some tools and
other small articles from time to time,
and the testimony showed that he was a
riotous fellow and the terror of the
neigh borhood. When he was questioned
he admitted that he had never worked,
and that his mother-a Widow-support-
ed him and supplied him with pocket
money!.
He never worked! What an admis-
sion for a boy, almost man, to make!
Is it any wonder that such boy was not
ashamed 10 admit thathe was supported
by his mother? An ordinary boy of
nineteen would blush to think that his
mother bought his clothes, but q boy
who never worked had no such fine
feeling
If such u boy were questioned closely
it would probably be found that he was
brought up to believe that there was
something degrading in work and that
the worker could not be q gentleman.
There are boys, and perhaps a few
grown-up people, who hold to this be-
lief, which is easily shown to be errone-
Gus. There was time when such an
idea prevailed, no doubt; but that time
has long past
At the present day even Princes and
Princesses are taught trades, and are re-
Quired to busy themselves about some
occupation, otherwise they would soon
feel the weight Of public disapproba-
ton. The nobility of Europe have long
since ceased life Of inactivity and
may be found engaged in many oc-
equations. Ladies' If rank have opened
millinery and dress-malxi ing shops in
London, q Marquis runs line Of cabs,
a Baron is potter, several noblemen
are at the head of a great ship-building
plant lists of railway directors show
liberal sprinkling OF aristocratic names
and titles, and, in short, there is hardly
an English trade Or profe ssion into
which noblemen have not embarked
The same is true in Germany and all
other European countries although not
to such a marked extent
In this country it has been we'll said
that every body works. The attempt 30
establish an idle class, in default of
titled class, has never succeeded. No
matter how much wealth q Young man
may inherit, he is almost certain to en-
bark in some mercantile or manufacture
ing venture. not SO much for the pur-
pose of increasing his wealth as the de-
sire to be doing some thing.
The purely idle man is lost in this
country. He can not find companion
ship and no one admires him. To
boast that he never worked is no pass
port to favor. Any one can in
herit wealth. but it takes a smart man
to make fortune. and Americans ad-
mire smartnesS. An idle man must 90
abroad to find friends or admirers.
Perhaps some of the distaste for work
arises from uncongenial mployment. A
boy with an artists soul could never be
happy in a tannery, nor sailor boy
work in a coal mine; but those Unequal
tiles right themselves. For every boy or
girl in the world there is work just e t..
ted to their inclination and capacity.
1t is their duty to find that work and do
it well.-Golden Days

TIE SPECULATOR.
His Wealth Is Ina ginary and His Seem
ing RepOSe "A SIlam

His Wealth Is ImaG inary and His Seem
ing RepoSe sham.
A nervous, uneasy seeker after salts
faction. He imagines that great deals
on paper or in his minds eye constitute
business. His wealth is imaginary and
nowhere. He contracts debts and cal
culates on miracles to pay them He
trusts every BODY and every body trusts
him while the ball can be kept up, and
when it falls 20 the ground, they all roll
away and perish together. One writer
says: The idea of owing more than
he can ever reasonably expect to pay
does not rob him of a wink of
sleep or disturb his repose for a
moment Eat, drink and be merry,
for tomorrow we die, is his
maxim; he lives as if the world were at
his command; he d.spises the sordid
maxim Of cutting his coat according to
his cloth, for the cloth belongs to 9TH
ers; he goes the way of all men, and
when his books are examined by the as
signees. it is found that, though he has
lived like a Prince and spent his hun
dreds of thousand /, there never was a
time when he would have had dollar
left after his debts were paid.
We do not believe that he loses no
sleep over impending disaster; on the
other hand he gets very little sleep, but
prides himself no doubt on fooling his
friends and acquain tances into the be-
lief of his reposeful nature. His out
ward calm is like his schemes, all in
appearance, and when failure finally
comes, as come it must, it leave wreck
of body, soul, mind and man. Little do
those who live in the careful rational
life know the trials of the Spectator
which too often leads to death by his
own hand. We cry out against the man
and condemn him as an unfeeling
wreck. Not so. He is often the most
sensitive, kind-hearted. generous-nat-
ured being in the world The fault is
all in the system that makes specula-
ton possible. Hang the system, we say,
and hang all systems that make it pos
sible for any man to bring ruin on him
self and others by speculation. = st.

Ayers
Vigor

not only prevented my wife from becoming
bald, but it also caused an entirely new
growth of hair. 1 am ready to certify to this
statement before a justice Of the peace
III. HulSebus, LewiSburgh, Iowa.
'Some years ago, after a severe attack of
brain fever, my hair all came out. / used
such preparations for restoring it as my ply
Sicians ordered but failed to produce a
growth of hair. I then tried, successfully,
several articles recommended by druggists,
and all alike fell short of accomplishing the
desired result. The last remedy I applied
was Ayers Hair Vigor, which brought a
growth of hair in a few weeks. I think I
used eight bottles in two years; more than
was necessary as arestorative, but liked it
as a dressing, and have continued to use it
for that purpose. / believe Ayers Hair
Vigor possesses virtues far above those of
any similar preparation now on the market"

aration has no equal as a dressing, and
is, therefore, indispensable to every we'll
furnished toilet.
'sI have used Ayers Hair Vigor for some

was troubled with dandruff and was rapidly
becoming bald; but since using the Vigor my
head is perfectly clear of dandruff, the hair

mend any one suffering from dandruff or
