THERE ARE NONE SO
BLIND AS THOSE
WHO WILL NOT See

There are some people who cannot be
convinced that white is white and black
IS black, because they are determined to
have their own way about 1t. Very good.
Such people go through life missing the
great truths and the greatest happiness as
well as comfort.
There are others again who are con-
vineeable. 1t Is to the men of this class
that we like to talk about the merits Of
our clothing.
They are better than nine.tenths of tie
made-to-measure clothes turned out in this
city and the equal of the other tenth.
Alfred Benjamin & Co.'s clothes cost
about half the price Of made.to' order
clothes, and have every desirable attribute
of the very best made -to-measure gar
ments, besides embodying many unmatch-
able features strictly their own. That is
why we say investigate the merits Of the
clothes bearing this label before going to
tailor. You risk nothing and stand to
win lot.

The cellar, well drained and aired,
must be kept free from rubbish, and
especially from decaying vegetables
and other foods. Frequent cleaning
out the corners and sweeping the walls
are essential All kinds of food, in
Guiding vegetables, should be kept from
the light. Jellies and canned fruits
ought to be stored in dark cupboards.
Windows enough to air the cellar and
screens for all of them are essential.
If the sashes are opened at sunset and
remain so until the next days heat,
then closed to keep in the fresh air, 1t
will be much cooler than If open all

is to breed foulness and disease. Lime

of DIR. Uhle is the kipu, collection
of knotted strings of different colors
which were used by the peoples of the
ancient civilizations of Peru, Ecuador
and Bolivia for the purpose of keep
ing accounts. They had no written
language and no system of figures.
Their arithmetic consisted solely of
little knotted strings. Among the
primitive villages of the Andes, the
descendants of the Incas depend up
on the kipu for keeping accounts, and
DIR. Uhle was so fortunate as to dis
cover them in the hands of Indian
herdsmen, who used them so skill
fully that they are able to make rec
ord for every animal, every bushel of
feed and article of property that is in
trusted to their care. The colors of
the different strings represent differ
ent articles, such as barley, corn,
sheep, rams, ewes, lambs, horses,
etc., while the knots, by their size
and distance from each other, express
hundreds, tens and units, in such a
manner as to accurately include the
decimals.

Mrs. Hanna is a stately, handsome
woman, with all impressive manner
and considerable hauteur. Her
abundant white hair is dressed in the
latest fashion, and her complexion is
like wild roses in the snow. Mrs.
Hanna has been the reigning queen of
society in Cleveland before and since
her marriage. Her gowns are made
of the costliest fabrics, her Jewels are
worth fortune, and she wears them
with the dignity of a duchess. Sena-
tor and Mrs. Hanna are both fond of
entertaining their friends, and they
please themselves and all concerned
by giving magnificent social affairs.
Mrs. Hanna gives literally of her
bounty for charitable purposes, but
her time and her endeavor are de-
voted to her family and her friends.
She has no time for the executive
duties of clubs or other organizations.
