A RESTORATION BEAU.
Daily Programme of = Dandy In
England During Charles Time.

Daily Programme of = Dandy In
England During Charles Time.
The history of an ordinary day Of a
restoration beau was something like
this: From about 10 till Il he received
visitors in his sleeping chamber where
he lay in state, with his periwig, thick
" powdered, lying beside him on the
coverlet. Near at hand, on his dress
Ing table, the curious visitor might
have noticed some little volumes of
amatory verse, a canister of Lisbon or
Spanish snuff, a smelling bottle and
perhaps a few fashionable trinkets.
As soon as he deemed proper the
beau arose and with incredible diff
Guilty proceeded to put on all his
charms, to perfume his garments, to
soak his hands in washes for the sake
of producing whteness aud delicacy,
to tinge his cheeks with carminative
in order to give them that gentle
blush which nature had denied them,
to arrange a number of patches upon
his face so as to produce the effect of.
moles and dimples, to dip his pocket
handkerchief in rosewater and to pow
der his linen SO as to Danish from it
the smell of soap, to consume quarter
of an hour in the attempt to fasten
his crayat, so long again in the en-
deavor TO adjust his wig and to "cock"
his hat, as long again in the contem-
plation of his charms in the looking
glass and as long again in the practice
of such smiles as would display to the
best advantage the ivory whiteness of
his teeth-these were the processes
through which he who desired to fig
ure as a beau of the first magnitude
was compelled in that age to pass.
The character of the beau, so far as
his outward and personal appearance
was concerned, was now complete, and
as in those days fashionable gentlemen
used their legs to a much less extent
than they do now our imaginary beau
would have directed his valet to order
sedan chair without delay. Into
this he stepped and was borne to the
fashionable haunt-to the mall in st.
James park or perhaps to the more
ceremonious parade in Hyde park
where. like butterfly, he delighted to
1utter in the train of some jilting
beauty, who gloried in nothing SO
much as IAN equipage of fools" and
who was perfectly willing for the
nonce to furnish him with an excuse
for toasting her in tavern at night

The Worst Form.

Multitudes are singing the praises of
Kodol, the new discovery which is
making SO many sick people well and
weak people strong by digesting what
they eat, by cleansing and sweetening
the stomach and by transforming their
food into the kind of pure, rich, red
blood that makes you feel good all
over. Mrs. Cranfill, of Troy, I. T.,
writes: For a number of years l was
troubled with indigestion and dyspep-
STA which grew into the worst form.
Finally was induced to use Kodol
and after using four bottles I am en-
tirely cured. | heartily recommend
Kodol TO all sufferers from indigestion
and dyspepsia. Take dose after
meals. 1t digests what you eat.

Do Good---It Pays.

A Chicago man has observed that,
"Good deeds are better than real estate
deeds some of the latter are worth
less. Act kindly and gently, show
sympathy and lend helping hand.
You cannot possibly lose by it." Most
men appreciate a kind word and en-
enlargement more than substantial
help. There are persons in this COM
munity who might truthfully say: "My
good friend, cheer up. A few doses of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will rid
you of your cold, and there is no dan
ger whatever from pneumonia when
you use that medicine. 1t AWAY S

out many time" Sold by p. c.

from Saturday to Monday. He was a
bachelor, very conviyial in his tastes,
and we were very jolly party of men.
When we woke up, about 2 o'clock on
the Sunday morning, one of our num-
Der, sound asleep on the couch in the
billiard room, was carried out like

gave me a solemn wink and told me

wanted nothing but sleep and was re-
lieved when the summons came to find
that it was broad daylight.
"Yawning, | followed the valet and
found myself, with four others, silent

wall. The scene was absurd, ridicu-
lous A dazed man slowly waking to
full consciousness was lying on a plas-
tered floor, looking up in horror at a
carpeted ceiling Two heavy couches
an easy chair, chairs and tables Sc
curely fastened stared down at him
from above. The mans eyes at last
rested on a fiowerpot directly over his
head. from which a fiaring rose, APP
parently real, was blooming. He gave
a cry and. rolling over, grasped with
frenzied hands the stem of the chande-
lier, which came up through the floor.

loud laugh. They all do it, he cried.

Some Mistakes In which the Moon,
Sun and Wind Figure.

sun anu w Anu FzEures
The moon proves terrible pitfall to
most writer's. Wilkie Collins once per-
formed the marvellous feat of making
it rise in the west Rider Haggard, in
king Solomon's Mines" relies for the
effective rendering of one of his most
thrilling scenes upon an eclipse of the
new moon.
Coleridge placed a star between the
horns of the crescent moon, forgetting
that to be visible in such a position the
star would have to be between the
earth and the moon or, say, 100000
miles away only.
Next to the moon perhaps the sun is
responsible for more glaring errors
than any single concrete cause. AT
the beginning of q certain famous nov
ell, the title of which Il few years back
was in everybodys mouth, an invalid
characters room WAS said to have
been lighted by one window looking
directly toward the east. Yet at the
end of the book, when the invalid dies,
the author, wishing to make him de-
part this life in a flood of glory, SUI
fuses this eastern windowed room with
1.-THE red glare Of the setting sum-"
Kingsley too, made one of his heroes
row out into the eastern ocean after
the setting sun. But even this glaring
absurdity has been capped. In novel
published by a well known firm there
occurs the following passage, the scene
being laid on board big sailing ship:
'How's the wind? asked the skip
per. East-northeast,' replied the mate,
glancing at the masthead pennant,
which was streaming blithely in the
direction Indicated So that in the
world, according to novelistS, we
should not only find the sun setting in
the east, but pennants would stream"
against the direction of the prevailing
wind

Look Out For Fever.

Biliousness and liver disorders at
this season may be prevented by cleans
ing the system with DeWitt's Little
Early Risers. These famous little pills
do not grippe. They move the bowels
gently, but copiously, and by reason of
the tonic properties, give tone and
strength to the glands. H. A. N. Todd.

When candle light is used the eyes
are closed 6.8 times a minute. With
gas light winking occurs 2.S times a

% times and with electric light 1.s.
Scientists say this proves that of all
artificial illuminants the electric light
is the least injurious to the eyes.
