The Vinegar Habit Hard to Cure.

Zone of the most difficult habits to
cure is that of drinking vinegar"
said DIR. L. C. Aiken, recently.
"a good many women drink vinegar
for the complexion, and in some cases,
it creates craving for it even more
insatiate than that for liquor. As
the habit grows the victim is no
longer contenteG with ordinary vine
gar, but demands it stronger and
stronger until they drink acetic acid
with very little dilution. 1t burns
out the stomach within a very few
years, and it is seldom that vinegar
fend lives even until middle age. It
can be detected by the peculiar pallor
of the countenance, but no antidote
has ever been discovered by which
the habit can be cured"

A New York tradesman has hit the
nail plumb on the head by offering to
darn all the stockings purchased at
his establishment The result of
such noble, up to- date arrangement
as this must be business second to
none and a corner in hosiery that
will drive other dealers mad. For
one of the grievances of civilization is
the necessity Of stocking mending. If
man did not wear stockings he would
never know the misery of unex-
pected1y sticking his toes through an
overlooked hole; but since repairs
now go with every pair of hose he
buys, life assumes a joy it has lacked
in days gone by, and care no longer
sits upon his brow.
