For Your Stomaeh's SakeI

You often need little wine, and
should never be without 1t in the house.
But be sure that it is good; bad wine
might injure your stomach, and GER
tainly cannot improve 1t.
Good liquor dealers have good CUSTOM
ers and keep good wine. They can't
afford to sell any other kind.
We claim that ours is the best store
in Astoria for every brand of wine, from
champagne down to sweet Catawba.

THE MEXICAN SECRET SERVICE.
1t Keeps an Eye on the Affairs of Public
and Private Hen.

1t Keeps an Eye on the Affairs of Public
and Private Hen.
'Tbe secret service of the French re.
public is generally considered to be the
most perfect spy system in the world, y
said Oliver Beach, a travelling man of st.
Louis, "but in my humble opinion the de
partment of private intelligence supported
by Mexico surpasses it both in extent and
intricacy. A couple of years ago was
accidentally permitted to get an insight
into its workings, and was astounded.
One would imagine that great private
detective agency would be a necessity only
in "a country like Russia, where the life OF
the ruler is constantly threatened, but
down in Mexico there is system of es
pionage that extends to every part of 1T.
The motives of every public man in
Mexico are not only perfectly well known
to the government, but every visitor is
subject to scrutiny. 1t was President lhaz
who first established the chain of secrecy
that now holds all the people in its links.
Every now and then one will be surprised
to see body of Mexican troops hurried
off to some remote place in farof state.
None Will know the reason, but the fact
win soon become known that the govern
ment has prevented an embryo revolution
from gaining strength and force. con-
siderable number of Americans residing
in Mexico do so because the law will make
it unpleasant for them in their native
places. The Mexican secret service has
the private record of each of these, and if
any of them shows too much activity in
Mexican affairs there is an arrest. The
United States authorities are notified, aud
extradition of the prisoner follows. Yes,
sir, the Mexican secret service is the great
est of them all, and its qualifications cx-
tend everywhere over the republic, and Il
good way on this side of the border. -

In mentioning a recent case OF mush-
room poisoning the Washington Evening
Star says: The mushrooms were undoubt-
edly Tic Ananita verna, which, with
Amanita muscaria, are the most poisonous
mushrooms known. There is but one an
tidote known fer amanitin or muscarin
poison, and that is sulphate of atropin.
The use OF atropin, as has been fully DEM
onstra5cd, will quickly neutralize the
effects of muscarin and amanitin on the
nerve centers Of the human system as
well as that of the lower animals. The
dose may be administered either by means
of hypodermic injection or by the mouth
in the usual way.

SNOW. SLEET AND HAIL
Is the Very Choice Combination Enjoyed by
Philadelphia People.

Philadelphia, Dec 26-The first snow
of the winter began here this afternoon,
and in few minutes a small sized biz
zard developed. The snow was wet and
heavy and turned the pavements and
streets into mess of slush. About T, the
snow changed toa driving sleet storm, and
at midnight hail was still fiercely coming
down. Reports received from all sections
of the state show that the storm is gener-
ally prevalent.

THE VISITING CARD UP TO DATE.
4 Very Thin, Small Card the Latest Thing
For Women--Other Innovations.

For Women-Other Innovations.
Engraved cards are the only proper ones,
and in order to have them correct it is
necessary to watch very closely what the
latest fashion is.
The mans visiting card is very small.
The name, or rather names--for every
name is uscd-must be spelled out in full
and the home address or club address put
in the lower left hand corner, as '' Mr..
Robinson Sanford Norton Jones. II a
hyphen can by any chance be inserted be-
tween the last two names, the card viii be
still more fashionable. -
Women's cards this year are printed on
very thin cardboard, hardly thicker than
thick sheet of note paper, and are qa :
small and almost square. The advantage
Of these thin cards is very patent-so
many more can be carried at once, and
they can also go into apurse instead OF
being only carried in q cardcase of gener-
Gus size.
The fashion of G. husband and wife's
name being put on one card has been vot-
ed a triilo old fashioned these last two
years. 1t may be sign Of the times ard
If the independence Of women that Mr..
ind Mrs Norton Jones do Tot care TO be
.lassod with ono another, but prefer to be
quite independent even in the matter of
visiting cards.
A young girls visiting card should have
ler name on it in full, always preceded by
Miss" from the time she is allowed II card
# her own Tho first year q girl is in So
;iety her name is generally put on the
same card with her mothers When two
s-;uf ufs,i in. il,,n in n
once, the eldest simply uses the family
anne on her cad, with Miss" prcfzed,
while the others appear rs Miss Dorothy,
Miss Margaret or Miss Gladys Ammo.
Even tiny babies hnvo lately been given
visiting cards, wee little things, with the
]abys name written in full.
How many cards to leave when making
, call is question much discussed. The
resent rule is that married woman call
ng on another married woman shall leave
me Of her own cards and two Of her hus
)and's
A man III pay;rrcalls must leave his
ard for each lady in the house.
Some few women in Now York have
ately left thcir husbands Christian names
tff their cards and have put no address on
'hem-as, for example, Mrs. Astor. Mrs
Astor was the first one To do it, This Is
Ill very well if one is so prominent that
he address is known positively to all hen
scquaintanccs.
An old fashioned custom which has not
ntirely gone out, according to Earper's
,azar, which is authority for the fcrcgo
ng, is that Of turning down the upper
light hand corner Of the card to show that
me has called in person and nos merely
ent cards by servant. Sometimes. in
tead of the right hand corner the cEtirs
light end of the card is creased over, in
licating tho same thing.

CONCERNING CORRESPONDENCE.
Novelties In Stationery--Fads and Fanciss
More or Less In Vogue. r

Certain fixed rules have prevailed and
are likely to prevail as regards letter
writing. hut no law has been laid down,
even by Dame Fashion, as to what size or
shape of paper and envelopes, what thick
ness or what color is correct. Unruled
paper is of course the only thing possible.
To write with lines implies, to put it very
mildly, q neglected education. The note
or letter stamped with the hall mark Of
good breeding is generally on n medium
sized cream tinted sheet absolutely with-
out any fragrance save very faint one of
orris root. tsgsf %.
Bright blue paper or bright purple has
lately been shown at the stationers' shops,
paper that will fold not into square but
into oblong envelopes 1t is fancy that
will not last CYcsts, monograms and
coats of arms are all more or less affected,
but the favorite ornamentation on any
paper is the address stamped at the top of
the first sheet in clear, distinct letters, not
script On the envelopes there is never
anything put There was an attempt to
have the address also on the back of the
envelope, but tradespeople adopted the
plan at once and it was then tabocd as
being too professional.
All Sizes OIL paper -ouSHb 10 be hept cn
hand on well appointed writing table.
Letter paper of good size, note paper,
medium and very small, and even few
of the cards which fit into square enyel-
opes should be within easy reach, and
there should also be some thin large paper
or pads for common use. Paper is much
cheaper than it used to be, so there is very
little excuse for untidy letters written on
half sheets and folded into envelopes that
10 not at all correspond in color or shape.
Writing pads are capital. things to use.
3he finest qualities of linen paper come in
these pads Of the right size to so into the
small square envelopes, and when there
are "a great many letters to be written it Is
much easier to write them on pad than
to sit down at writing table to do it.
1t is always rather smart looking to seal
notc or letter with sealing wax. Red,
black and pale blue are the best to use.
Postal cards are no5 in favor for CORE
spondcnce. They are used only in giving
orders or for business purposes.
Writing with quill pens is not so much
of q fad as at one time it threatened to be,
but clear, legible handwriting should be
cultivated Colored inks are not used.
jet black is decidedly the thing, according
to Harper's Bazaar, which is authority for
the foregoing.
