Protection for Public Men.

An Austrian inventor has perfected a
garment which, 1t is claimed, will re-
sist q knife thrust or a bullet from an
assassin's pistol. Its adoption will
furnish wonderful protection to rulers
and public men, and while 1t is neces-
sary to protect their bodies from harm
on the outside, 1t is infinitely more i'm
portant to protect them from serious
danger on the inside, such as may
arise from a d%isordered stomach, weak
kidneys or impure blood. The best
health maker and protector known to
science is the old reliable Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. For fifty years it
has been making sickly people we'll by
curing all such ailments as sickhead-
ache, indigestion, dyspepsia, fiatulency
and insomnia. It is also a splendid

an Odd fsvsns1t md Likisg It
The perfect pavement for streets is
believed to have been discovered in
Paris in q material which nobody but
a few experts had regarded as practic-
able or economical enough for use.
A street has been paved with glass
and the Paris newspapers are loud In
praise of the innovation.
Everybody who heard Of the plan
laughed at It before 1t was tried. 1t
was argued that the surface. would be
too slippery for use and that 1t would
be brittle and dangerous. In practice
the pavement is found to afford an
excellent foothold and 1t neither be-
comes dirty nor absorbs NTH.
The surface of the pavement Is dull
ALL kinds Of glass. Of debris are used
In its manufacture and the cost Is low.
b Toe inventor Of the process expects
to become rich, As other cities are
watching the experiment with the
idea possibly of adopting the same
material themselves.
