. QUESTION
OF HEALTH

By last steamer our
stock of DR.. Jaeger's I'm
derwear for men has been
replenished.
We are now prepared to
fit any one be he a dude
or heavyweight.
You've been suffering
long enough from that
horrid cold; you've spent
a small fortune for
patent medicines and
doctors advice for that
chronic rheumatism. Let
us prescribe for you,
we know what ails
you. You're wearing un-
derwear of dead vegetable
fiber, no wonder you're
sick.
Let US advise you to
make a change. You
should wear under gar
ments Of pure animal wool.
Nature so intended it, but
you've been running con
trary to nature until at
last, she has broken down.
Do you wonder at it? Let
US tell you something:
Animal wool is the mate
rial devised by nature for
animal covering and pos
sesses, as the simplest
experiments will prove the
valuable quality of not
attracting Or retaining the
noxions mal-odorous mat
ters, which the animal
body exhales. Moreover
being a slow conductor of
heat animal wool does not
chill even when damp.
Some friend will perhaps
tell you that WOODEN under
clothing is too hot for this
climate. Don't be misled.
That all-wool clothing
protects the body from
chill is Ineligible to every
one, but it is a common
error to suppose that such
clothing is hot in summer.
Heats felt to be oppressive
when the natural action
of the pores is hampered
and the exhalation cannot
escape.
If the covering is imper-
vious there is a strong
desire to throw everything
off from the stifed skin;
but the wearer of porous
WOODEN covering through
which the skin can breathe
is no more oppressed by it
than is a cricketer by his
flannels, which every
athlete knows to be the
coolest, safest, most COM
Portable wear for violent
exercise in hot weather.
Ifyou value your health,
don't delay, but encase
your body in garments of
pure animal wool as made
by DR.. Jaeger, and for
sale by
Nj. McINERNY.

Ivan, with grave composure, undisturbed
by any emotion impaired by the prospect
of escape, Zone thing which you should

he got s43, ,518.17 OH one note and one day
before the suspension he took last pull

One day in January last he drew $780,

Menage's total personal liabilities there

AUBURN, ". Y, Nov. 1.-THE Elmira
refOrmatory investigating committee met
at the state prison and held two sessions.

In his testimony he said that for an al
legged offense, which he had not commit
ted, he was padded by Brockway the
whole of one afternoon. He was brought
to the bath room twice and asked to adj
init the offense with which he was
charged. While in the bath room he was
hit on the head with a paddle by Super

to the ground during such punishment
Colonel Halpen would catch him by the
throat and compel him to remain on his
feet. When he could stand 1t no longer

brought against him. He was taken to
the bath room a short time after the first
punishment, and another course of pun
ishment was administered. He was taken
to the bath room a third time that day
and punished, and then fell to the floor
unconscious, while Brockway was pad

wrists and rope was attached, and he
was hoisted from the floor to standing
position. His nose was bleeding and his
back was mass of bruises. He was given
an officers supper that night The prison

punishment. Finally, to save himself, he
admitted the alleged olfense.
Witness further testified that Clerk
Hope had kicked an inmate named Carlo
from one end of the prison to the other
for screaming. Witness had also seen two
or three other inmates with bruised faces
and backs after treatment in the bath
room. There was an underground cell

formatory
