Keep the Balance Up.

1t has been truthfully said that any
causes serious trouble Nobody can be
too careful to keep this balance up.
When people begin to lose appetite, or to
get tired easily, the least imprudence
brings on sickness, weakness, or debility.
The system needs tonic, Graves it, and
should not be denied it; and the best
tonic of which we have any knowledge is
Hoods Sarsaparila. What this medicine
has done in keeping healthy people
healthy, in keeping up the even balance
of health, gives it the same distinction as
a preventative that it enjoys as cure. Its
early use has illustrated the wisdom of
the old saying that a stitch in time saves
nine. Take Hoods for appetite, strength
and endurance.

HISTORIC RELICS.
characteristics in Mems Clothes Dating
Back to Feudal Times.


The general lack of picturesqueness
about the present day male attire is
frequently lamented. yet how many
people are aware that the average
man carries on his coat at least two
historical relics, one Of which dates
back to feudal times?
This relic of the times of William
the Conqueror consists Of the two but
tons worn at the back of morning
or frock coat. The buttons are. of
course, useless for any practical pur-
pose. and inasmuch as they are GER
tanly not decorative, you may natur-
ally ask what they are there for.
Sartorial historians now tell us that
these two buttons come down to us
from the sword bearing age, when
they were placed at the back of the
coat for the purpose OF supporting a
sword belt, which. together with the
sword, has long since been discarded,
save by military men, the sole remain
in evidence of its existence being the
two buttons. Thus to this day they
re main on our coats as mute witnesses
OF the days that are gone.
The other historical relic which
still survives in our modern coats is
the nick in the lapel.
Though you have been wearing
coats and waistcoats ever since child
hoods early days you have probably
never thought to inquire whether or
not there is any reason why tailors
should continue to make this nick.
1t is now recalled by sartorial ex-
perts that when Napoleon first felt the
sway of boundless ambition he tried
to implicate General Moreau in Piche-
greu's conspiracy.
AS you will doubtless remember,
Moreau had been the man of destiny's
rival, and was an exceedingly popular
soldier, but in the circumstances. will

Curious Law About Parcel Carrying.


They have curious laws in Vienna,
