How They Shock the Sensitive Mascu

The fashions of 1895 should certainly go
down to posterity in the annals of military
as the embodiment of garish vulgarity,
says London Sketch. Such headwear as
the ladies wear no wadays would have deen
pronounced a few short years ago as the
height of bad taste in the most ideal Of
'Arrietsl Only few days since, lunch
ing with man friend at well-known
west-end restaurant, we were quite up
set by the blaze of crude colors at the next
table, where three fashionable ladies were
taking their midday refreshment IrSag@e
a plateau of grass green straw, at the
back of it a vast bow of magenta ribbon,
while on the front and sides grew huge
punches of an aggressively colored violet
such as nature-heaven be praisedl-neyer
produced. That was No. l. No. 2 wore q
bonnet made of yellow lace, on which re-
posed two salmon-colored bo ws Of moderate
dimensions, and at the back sprang an enor-
nous clump Of splendidly developed corn
flowers. their hue the crudest blue and their
foliage a green violent enough TO have been
bound over to keep the peace before any
stipendary magistrate. No. was some
what less startling, for she was in half
mourning, but the white stra W hat of vast
size which she wore was disfigured as
much as possible with enormous bows of
white, among which flourished in the
strongest manner weird black blooms and
puff-balls OF the dandelon, larger than
any dandelion this world ever possessed
one of them would have sown Piccadilll
with dandelions for a whole summer. Men
exhibit bad taste enough, goodness knows,
but HAMPSTEAD Heath on a bank holiday
could not show such vulgarity on mere
man as may be seen at any fashionable

to cheat their own government Women
who walk down the gangpiank home from
their first voyage, who have been RECALLED
by their fello passengers by artful tales
of smuggling tricks, discovered and treas

apt to look anxlously about for the dreaded

But that dragon is not so easily recog-

MEDICAL.
THE OLD FOLKS AT HOME.
Where the Aged and Infirm are Cared
for-MOther Aurelia Speaks
OF Her Charges.

(Fron1 the Providence, II. l., JoUrndI)
Somewhat removed from the city of Prov
idence, on the main highway to Pawtucket,
stands that magnificent charitable institu-
ton known as the Home for the Aged of the
Little Sisters of the Poor. Here a COM
pany of sweet faced and soft voiced Sisters
care for the old aud the infrm who are
unable to care for themselves.
Mother Aurelia presides over this we'll
known institution, and with her associates
ministers to the wants of over two hundred
old people, women and men. An important
feature of the Home is a well-appointcd
pharmacy in charge of one of the sisters.
Their chief remedy is good old Pain Killer,
which most of the old folks used when they
were children and which now cures the pains
and aches incidental to their declining years.
AS is to.be.e6pected, the aged inmates Of
the Home are in constant need of medical
attention, although, so carefully are they
tended, few are rarely sick enough to be IN
the hospital wing at any one time But all
of them are subject to the many disabilities
of old age, and so Pain-killer has come
to be remedy Of almost daily use
Mother Aurelia saws that Pain-killer has
quite superseded the drugs and prescriptions
for use among the old people. When the
limbs twitch with rheumatism the fair
sister in charge the pharmacy gives them
a massage with pure Pain-Killer. When
the old men and old women suffer from
their nnauv- stomach troubles, little Pain
Killer with water and sugar offers certain
and quick relief When the venerable
heads are raeked with pain, Pnin-Killer is
again put to service promptly. The old
people love it and rely upon it, They tes-
tifv that its use externally is quickly efiica'
cious. and Internally, is unaccompanied by
any after i'll effectS-which, at their age,
must never be risked.
