Bog Slide In Ireland.

Following a phenomenal rainfall
terrible bog slip occurred the other
day near Liscannor, on the west
coast of Glare, and within a quarter
of mile of the scene of last years
slide, when two lives We're lost. The
slip began on the Carhudiff Hills,
says the London Graphic, and the
immense mass of semi-fuid bog flowed
four miles through the country until
it discharged itself into Derry River.
The moving mass swept away hay
ricks, peat stacks, and number of
cows and pigs, which were lost. A
farming family, named Killoughry,
were compelled to escape by the up
per windows. and this they did with
difficulty. Several people are practical
ly ruined by their land and crops be-
ing covered with the peaty moisture,

COST OF A MANS WARDROBE.
1t Amounts to Much Less Than He Pays
For Food,


For Food.
Comparatively, what a man wears
does not cost so much during a life
time when you come to ehink of it,"
said an observant citizen, ''aEd as a
matter of fact the average 1 suppose
will be surprised by the figures. OF
course, the man who attempts to keep
up with the procession of the ultra
fashionables must necessarily spend
good sum of money during his life
time. He must humor the changing
moods of the men who set the pace
in fashion. He must have the very
latest thing out. His coat must be
the proper cut, his hat the proper
shape, his trousers just so and his
tie the proper color. But there are
many men in the world who cannot
pay so much respect to fashion, and
hence we may strike an average be-
tween the two extremes in dress.
1--WE will put the case alphabetically
and assume that a man lives to be
thirty-five years of age. We VIII as
sumo that he will wear the clothes
time. On an average, 1 suppose a
man will wear out six shirts during
the year, or total of 210 in a life
time. Suppose he pays seventS-five
cents each for them. This would be
$3.50 year, or $157.50 that he would
pay out in lifetime of thirty five
years. He would wear twelve col
lars year, of 40 in thirty-five years,
and if he wore the cheaper grade of
collars, 15-cent collars, he would
spend $63 in thirty-hve years. Allow
ing two whole suits of clothes year,
and at the average Of $50 a suit he
would spend in this way $1400 in
thirty-five years. If We allow him an
average Of four suits of underwear a
| year, he would need 40 suits, and at
the nominal price Of 81 a suit they
would cost him $40 in thirty five
| years. Two hats every twelve months
would mean total of seventy hats,
and If he paid an average of So each
for them the total number would cost
him $210 His shoes, allowing him
| two pairs year, and fixing the cost
at 81 pair, would cost him $3.50 in
lifetime. Now, on the basis Of cal
| culation, n man would spend about
S2250 in lifetime for clothes. There
| are, of course, many men who spend
much more than this amount and there
are many men who spend much less.
But this calculation may be taken as
reasonable average.
"It will be observed that neckties,
socks, suspenders, garters and things
of that sort are not taken into con-
sideration. Laundry bills, cleaning,
nlending and other things which in
crease the cost Of mans wearing
| apparel are not considered. These
costs would probably double the fig
ures, and in some instances, as in the
| case of shirts and collars, the origi-
nal cost of the article would be moth
ing in comparison to the cost Of keep
! ing them.
But taking all things into consider
alton, q mans wearing apparel will
cost him less than the food that he
eats. Suppose a man is allowed three
meals each day at the nominal cost
| Of twenty-five cents a meal, in thirty
| five years he would spend about $945O
| for food, or about four times the
amount he would spend for clothes" "
