THE GLASS OF FASHION.

Muffs are to be larger than ever in
Paris this winter and are in canoe
shape.
Dead gold ornaments are among the
millinery novelties and are extremely
effective on black, red and, indeed, all
dark colors.
Buttons play a prominent part in the
winter costume. Buttons are of gold
or of white cloth when the costume is
trimmed with white cloth embroidered
in gold.
For tailor costumes in black velvet
revers of black broadcloth or sable are
the most fashionable and are trimmed
with small motifs of empire style pas
sementerie.
Among colors the rage for red prom
ises not to abate, and there have been
new shades of khaki brought out in
Paris which are of tints almost cop
perry in their redness.
The toque of white panne adorned
with a wreath of white roses and sew
eral impertinent little ostrich tips is
considered in Paris the most effective
finish for black cloth costume.
Velvet and velveteen costumes are to
enjoy popular reign all season. The
finer grades of velyeteen are much pre-
ferred to velvet. These are being trim
med elaborately in braids and Persian
bands.
A bewitching tea gown is of accordi-
on plated nuns yelling caught at the
sides to the figure by a girdle that
leaves front and back loose. A fall of
handsome ecru guipure outlines yoke
and appears also at the wrists.
Furs never have been more freely.
used, both as garments and trimmings.
Boleros of seal or broadtail or marten
are always short and are supported by
artistic belts of old passementerie. An
elegant costume has n bolero of sable,
with a collar of venise lace.-New York

True to the announcement of Presi-

League, that the prosecutions for bri-
berry in connection with Scranton
municipal legislation would be resumed
after the holidays, warrants were yester-
day issued for the arrest of Councilmen

Persons who suffer from indigestion
can not expect to live long, because they
can not eat the food required to nourish
the body and the products of the undi-
gested foods they do eat poison the
blood. 1t is important to cure indiges-
tion as soon as possible, and the best
method of doing this is to use the pre-
paration known as Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure. 1t digests what you eat and re-
stores all the digestive organs to perfect
health. Growers City drug store,

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Cut down all the dead, worm eaten
trees and chop them into stove wood.
Success in fruit culture depends more
ON the man than on the soil or locality.
The best manure to apply around
peach trees is that which is well rotted.
The old orchard should not be filed
with young trees. The soil is generally
exhausted.
Crocuses should be planted three
inches deep, tulips four, hyacinths five
and lilies six.
1t is good plan to cut out all the old
wood from among the blackberry and
raspberry canes.
Cut off the old asparagus stalks,
gather up and burn them and then ap-
ply good dressing of manure.
All apples keep best in temperature
pretty near the freezing point and par
ticularly in an even temperature.
To buy and plant out trees and then
not take care of them is waste of
money as well as of time and labor.
Tulips, crocuses and hyacinths may
be planted late in the fall or early win
ter. Mulch when the ground freezes.
Ounce tree roots are small and near
the surface and hence should be pro-
tected against extreme heat and cold
by mulching.-St. Louis Republic.

JACK TAR'S GROWL.
A Story Illustrating the Sailors
Habit of Grumbling.


The author of "From Edinburgh to
the Antarctic" writing of the sailors
habit of grumbling, says: THE dinners
are all the same-that is to say, Mon
days dinners are all alike, and what
we have today we shall have this day
six months hence. Jacks forefather
this day 100 years ago had the same
menu and made the same uncompli-
mentary remarks about the dishes, and
100 years hence on this daS Jacks chill
dren will growl over thce' salt horse
and plumless duff" The author also
tells this "yarn" to illustrate that
Jacks habit of 'grumbling can't be
cured and must be endured
Once upon time there fved a skip
went to sea the poor men would never
find fault with their food. Her hus-
band took her with him on voyage,
and the good woman attended to the
cooking in the galley herself.
The scouse was thick with fresh veg
etabies, the bread was white and with
out weevils, the meat was good, and
tnC uuil W as dlulOSI udll Dul
still the men growled.
Then the shippers wife thought of
the hens she had brought on board to
lay eggs for her husbands breakfast.
She took them out of the coop, wrung
their necks with her own fair hands,
plucked them, roasted them and sent
them to the forecastle on the cabin
china.
Now the men," she said to herself,
will know how much we think of their
comfort"
At eight bells she stole forward to
the forecastle to listen to the praise of
her skill as cook. She looked down
the hatch and saw a big black fist
plunge fork into the hen and heard
hoarse voice growl, 81 say, Bill, what
dye think this 'ere bloody fowl died
of"

HUMOR OF THE HOUR.

Tom L. johnson, the famous street
ear magnate and single taxer, is well
known by his friends to be generous
man, but he admits that he could never
become quite reconciled to the Tip
ping" habit so prevalent in Europe
and he tells this story on himself:
In front of the hotel where he staid
in London on a recent visit there was
always standing a man who had the
annoying habit of darting out to the
carriage and swinging open the door
before Mr.. Johnson could reach it, and
then he would stand expectantly to re-
celve a tip.
Now" says Mr.. Johnson, II
shouldn't have cared If the man had
come to me and said he needed assist
ance, but l really didn't need him to
open the carriage door. The driver
and myself could have managed it be-
tween us, I'm sure.
"Well it began to be a point of honor
with both of us. l would try to dash
out so quickly that the man couldn't
possibly beat me, but he must have
had glmlet eyes and rubber legs be-
cause he could always see me before
l came in sight and could spring to
the carriage door in half a second.
But one day-how it happened 1
never could tell reached the carriage
door first and swung 1t open, painting
but triumphant. The man was right
after me-almost on top of me-and a
look of keenest chagrin came over his
face as his eyes met my triumphant
glance. But his confusion was only
mcmentary, for in an instant he recov-
cred himself and, with look of seren-
est impudence, saluted and then held
out his hand for a tip, saying:

II TONIC is medicine that gives tone
+ to some part of the system. There
are different kinds of tonics, but
the tonic most needed in this country,
where catarrh is so prevalent, is
tonic that operates on the mucous mem
branes.
Peruna is q tonic to the mucous mem
branes of the whole body. 1t gives tone
to the capillary circulation which con-
stitutes these delicate membranes.
Peruna is specific in its operation
upon the mucous membrane. 1t is a
tonic that strikes at the root Of all ca
tarrhal affections. 1t gives tone to the
minute blood vessels and the terminal
nerve f1bres. Gatarrh cahnot exist long
where Peruna is used intelligently.
Peruna seeks out catarrh in all the hid
den parts of the body.
Paul Landrum writing from Atlanta,
Ga, says:
"In January last began the use OF
your Peruna and Manalin for what was
termed organic heart trouble. At that
time 1 could scarcely walk to my place
of business without stopping to rest and
on arrival felt completely exhausted.
Had severe pains in my heart and general
dizziness. After using the first bottle Of
Peruna I began to improve and today L

q @. R. r., West Burlington, Ia, writes:
AZ had catarrh of the stomach and
small intestines for a number of years.
1 went to a number OF doctors and got
no relief. Finally one Of my doctors
sent me to Chicago and I met the same
fate. They said they could do nothing
for me, that had cancer of the stomach
and there was no cure. almost thought
the same, for my breath was something
awful. I could hardly stand it, it was
so offensive. 1 could not eat anything
without great misery, and l gradually
grew worse.
"Finally got one Of your books, and
concluded would try Peruna, and thank
God, found relief and cure for that
dreadful disease. I took five bottles of
Peruna and two of Manalin, and I now
feel like new man. There is nothing
better than Peruna, and keep bottle
in my house all the time."-A. NJ. Ikerd.

CITY WILL CAVE MUCH

Mayor Philip ]. O'Connell and mem
beers Of the city Council were somewhat
disappointed in not getting a lowe
rate for electric light, as result o
the decision of the gas and electric
light commission. They are, however,
thankful for small favors and the saw
ing on a 30 cent rate will be quite an
item.
The city fathers figure that on the
basis of 700 lights the number in oper-
alton at present, the city will save
1866 over the best rate offered by the
company for three year contract or

an annual saving of $2555. On the ba-
sis of the five year proposition the city
will save $2555 the first year; $196525
the second year; $1277.50 the third year
and $63S.75 the fourth year. The fifth
year would be the same as the rate
allowed.
Mayor O'Connell and officials of the
electric light company are satisfied that
there Is no necessity for entering into
new contract. They believe that the
rate fixed by the commission stands
until such time as ordered differently.
The city will pay for arc lights, from
July I. up to Oct Is, at the rate Of 80
cents per light per night, the rate ors
dered by the commission.
