PROOF AGAINST FoorPADs.
(From the Kansas City Journal)


When the timid-looking man got out
Of the barber chair after being shaved
he fumbled in one pocket after another
while the porter busted his clothing.
WELL" he said, with note of aston
ishment in his voice, as he plunged his
hand for the fourth time into his right
trousers pocket and felt around. That's
funny. thought had a quarter in that
pocket"
He repeated the search of his other
pockets. while the barber who had
shaved him leaned his elbow on the back
Of the chair, crossed one leg over the
other and eyed him suspiciously.
Guess / must've lost it," said the
timid-looking man as he put his right
foot up on a chair and began to roll up
his trousers leg. The barber winked at
the artist in charge of the chair next to
his and moved nearer the razor case
The man rolled and pulled his trousers
leg above his knee, and by that time
every one else in the shop was watching
him with intense interest They saw that
he wore woman's black stocking. Just
above his knee he wore two garters one
about four inches above the other. He
slipped the upper garter down, rolled
down the top of the stocking carefully
and there were several treasury notes
lying spread out fiat against the under
clothing that covered his leg
What do you carry money in that
way for?" asked the barber as he hand
ed the man change for the IS.
"F'ootpads," was the laconic reply of
the stranger.

The firmly-woven cloths in mixed col
or effects having surface as smooth
and satiny as broadcloth, are the latest
materials for jacket suits and shirt
waist skirts, as they are adapted to the
clinging effect SO much in demand. Even
under these materials, nothing stiff is
liked by the best dressmakers. This
skirt, which is the latest f1ve-gored
model-width three and three-quarter
yards-is cut with the narrow front
breadth, now so much in vogue. 1t
hangs plainly at the front and sides, the
fulness in the back being disposed in

DR.. Ayers Cherry Pectoral. The first bottle
gave me great relief; the second. which l
am now taking, has relieved me almost
entirely of all unpleasant symptoms. To
ministers suffering from throat troubles,
recommend DR.. Ayers Cherry Pectoral.
Prevention is betIer than cure" A
bottle of DR.. Ayers Cherry Pectora1 kept
in the house, will effectua11y prevent the
roofing of a cold and its consequent deve1-
opement into some dangerous malady.
This remedy has no equal in Bronchial
troubles. The most stubborn cases have
yielded to its use. 1t is equally effective
for Asthma, Group, whooping Cough and
every disease that attacks the throat or
lungs. For years DIR. Ayers Cherry Pee
toral has been put up only in large size
bottles, at a price of $Ioo. To meet an
increasing demand for a smaller sized
package the remedy can now be obtained
in half-size bottles, at half price-so cents.

Two.FAMlLY HOUSE.
Copyright. 1889

AS a general rule the cty-bred man is
welded to the hustle and excitement of
city life. He likes to jostle elbows with
the crowd. To him the sweet existence
is found in the kaleidoscope movements
Of the masses, the hurry and the tur-
moil of the street, the changes of traf-
fic the myriad flashing lights and the
countless diversions of the metropolis.
To enjoy these he is content to sink, in
large measure, his own individuality,
TO lose the pleasure that comes from So
cial neighbors, and to be merely one of
a group of tenants instead of a house
holder. To such a one country life is alb
horrent; all of the enjoyments exhaust
ed in a two weeks vacation. Only less
repulsive is suburban life even when
this is relieved by daytime occupation
in the city. To this class of people is
the main appeal of the constant success

drawing strings. The pattern of this
petticoat is included with that Of the
utility skirt
The skirt-waist, although extremely
simple, is one of the newest models,
suitable for pque, percale ard other
cotton tailor goods. 1t is made with a
narrow yoke and medium fulness in
front, and has small sleeves with a
straight cuff narrow enough to slip east
ly into the tight coat sleeves at present
in vogue. The proper cut Of the cos
tune can be obtained from the cut pa

zar, where it appears. Quantity of ma
terial-cloth, AZ inches wide for skirt
five and half yards; lining of silk or
satin, eight yards: silk for petticoat, ten
yards; cotton material for shirt-waist
! three and quarter yards. These are
approximate quantities for medium
sizes.

HANDSOME EVENING WRAPS.
Evening wraps keep pace with the
splendor of evening gowns. The most
fashionable are quite long, and have
huge collars encircling the face and
showing up the head as if ii were ex-
posed on dish. The wraps are often
made in pelisse style, slightly double
breasted, with immense revers merging
into the collar, which can be turned
back so that the revers extend to the
very edge of the garment, showing
smart lining of embroidered satin

yon. The crowns of these close little
models are more frequently plain than
indented, the brins rolling, the shape
round oftener than long and oval. and
the whole made of tapping tips of pheas-
ants or doves feathers, with aigrettes
in front rising from mass of tufts and
pompons. Other hats arecovered smooth

shaded, the feathers arranged to match

No class Of people is 50 liable to throat
trouble as the great class who make up the
Gospel ministry. The strain put upon the
vocal organs by constant exercise; the
sudden change from a heated building to
the cool air when the vocal organs are in
a state of complete relaxation; the fact
that a minister feels impelled to use his
voice when actors and lecturers would
take the needed rest; these are among the
reasons why "Clergymen's sore throat"
is known as a special disease. The Rev.
F.. NJ Brawley. d. D., District Secretary of
the American Baptist Publication Society,
writes from Petersburg, Va the account
of an experience Of his own which is prof.
table reading to those afflicted with Rron-
ctiA1 or other throat troubles. The Sub
stance Of the letter is as follows:

One of New Havens esteemed resi- Wednesday morning last at o'clock at the family residence, 374 Grand ave- lid for the past six years and death was not altogether unexpected. Of late she suffered considerably with the grip, but during the latter part of the summer seemed to be improving. On Monday last, however, she became sud- denly worse, losing consciousness, in which state she remained until the time of her death. The deceased, who was before her marriage Miss Hall, was born in Lynn, N H., in 1920, and was consequently eighteen years of age. She received a common school education while at home, but being de- sirous of increasing her store of knowl- edge moved together with two of her brothers to Hartford, this state. In 1S45 she came to New Haven and was first teacher in private school. She was later elected to a position in the public schools, which place she held for seven years, and was head woman teacher at the old Webster school dur ing portion of the time that MT Dim ick was principal. The deceased was very we'll known to many of the older residents of the city. She was the wid- ow of ex-Police Commissioner Samuel Johnson, who died some ten years ago, and leaves two daughters, Miss Mary r. TohpSoo and Micc Annie q Johnson
 teacher in the Hillhouse High school. A brother, D. c. Hall of Boston, also survives. The funeral services will be held from the late residence this after l noon at 2:30, the Rev. MT. Dickerman officiating. The interment will be in | Evergreen cemetery.
