Hard luck.
You have beard possibly the hard luck

can vouch for the good character OF
the man referred to. He was formerly
employed by the New York New Haven
railroad and when they cut down their
| force last spring he was among the number
who lost their places. At present he has
wife and child, the latter very sick. He is
behind a couple OF months in his rent and
can find nothing to do.
He was thrifty when he was at work and
saved what money he coulu from his small
salary. He placed his money in bank
and when the bank closed unexpectedly as
banks sometimes do he found that the
balance according to his bank book was
S173, but "a bad as he needed the money
he could not get cent until such time
as the bank saw fit TO settle the claims
OF its depositors. Question: Is there any
one who will advance say s25 or $50 on the
bank book, which is evidence of the de-
posit, and take the security offered, and
might add il the bank, the Merchants
Bank pays the balance, also give him
that, charging him il necessary nominal
interest, SO he would escape the sharks
who would doubtless take advantage of
his necessities TO do" him, Further in

The eyes have il.
Do you wear glasses? Don't like to?
Nor /, but what's the use of kicking about
| IL? Go have your eyes attended to.
! About once in SO long you know, glasses
need readjusting. III l should recommend
| you to go to j. Putney Il Co., 76 West
minister street, you could find no objection
| because he has been around these parts
some thirty-five years and is rushed with
business. You can obtain what is neces-
sary in spectacles and eyeglasses. He also
has eyes, artificial eyes, for sale OF all
colors. You can't see much with them
but they fool lots of people who think
they are all right. See?
/ have been reading an article about
women replacing men or rather unplacing
| them, and the tenor of the whole column,
solid nonpariel, was to the effect that
women were being hired as book keepers,
cashiers and clerks in the place OF men,
thus depriving them of the money they
could otherwise earn. After i had fin
ished reading the article i CALCULATED the
above ejaculation. The man who finds
| fault because q woman is smart enough to
| 40 his work and do 1t possibly
better by having a clearer head and
being more attentive to business should
! hide his face for shame. III there is any
fault to De found II should be on the score
| that the woman is obliged to do the same
work for less pay. A man should so excel
in his work that no woman could COM
pete with him in his particular line. IL
women crowd the me out they ought to
be crowded out. IL they are any good
they will crowd themselves in somew here
else.
Have you left your measure for fall
suit yet p? II not, go straight away to $50
| Westminster street and do SO. Fine quail
| ity of goods, prices to suit and no part OF
the making neglected. O'Neil should be
| your tailor.
The ladies having proven so successful
in the late campaign in Kentucky, where
they succeeded in defeating the profiigate
Breckenridge, those who have taken the
task of defeating Tammany in New York
this fall have called in the ladies TO use
their influence in that respect. At this
rate woman will soon realize her fond
hopes of going to the ballot box to vote
against the husband OF her neigh ghbor, who
has borrowed her fan and forgotten to re-
turn it.
The bracing air suggestive OF what may
be expected during the coming months
made everyone feel better this morning.
The step OF the business man was more
elastic and the glow of health upon the
cheeks of the ladies' most apparent.
These thoughts fitted through my
mind as noted the ladies and gentlemen
who in carriages and OH foot wended
their way to the great auction sale of
Oriental rugs now going on at 110 and 112
Westminster street.
This is no ordinary sale. The goods
offered are a choice selection direct from
the importer, $. B. Donchian OF Hartford,
Conn, who has made especial preparation
for this seasons demand in these goods
There il a warmth, a sumptuous richness,
and lasting value in foreign
importstons or this character which
defy imitation and therefore COM
petition. The residents Of Providence
doubtless appreciate the opportunity
offered them, II one is TO Judge by the at
tendance this morning. Some excellent
values went at a ridiculously low figure.
A we'll dressed man always commands
respect wherever he goes. While clothes
do not make the man and man can have
a mans heart throb beneath n ragged
