Must suspenders Cot

Chicago, where the changeable and
reversible shirt bosom was invented,
has now come out In favor of the
abolition of suspenders as a necessary
part of the dress of its male citizens.
Its tailors recommend to their custom
ers the use of a belt in place Of the
"galluses" of their grandfathers. One
writer on Chicago fashions has gone so
far as to say that most of the well
dressed men in the city have adopted
the new fad and find it so very agreea-
BILE that they will in the future have
their dress trousers held in place with
a belt instead of suspenders. This sort
of thing may go in the wild west. re-

court. Il couldn't get fit for my GUS

of the latest Chicago freak, land even
if | could | couldn't get any of my Gus
toners to do away with the modest but
useful suspender. Belts with knicker-
bockers are all right, but with any
other sort a man would be in perpet-
ual state of hitching in order to keep
his trousers in place. Possibly New
Workers have more time in which TO
dress than do the young men of Chica-
go. It's certain they'll never get in
such a hurry as 10 do away with their
suspenders. That's "A sure thing II

There is no better medicine for the

has been used in tens of thousands OF
cases without single failure so far as
we have been able to learn. 1t not only
cures Group, but when given as soon as
the croupy cough appears, will prevent
the attack. In cases of whooping cough
it liquefies the tough mucus, making 1t
easier to expectorate, and lessons the
severity and frequency of the parox-

disease of all dangerous consequences.
