CARELESSNEsS IN DRESS.
EOu Should Never Affect 1t II You
Have to Depend on Your Own
Efforts In Life.

Many wealthy men affect careless
ness in dress, and it may truly be
said that they can afford to do any
thing, but they are the very men who
require that their employees shall
dress so we'll that the public will i'm
agine they are well paid. The first
impression made by man in busi-
ness life is the most important When
he enters the presence of another
man, he studies him no less than he
is being studied in turn. Each ''un-
consciously takes the measure of the
other and each quickly forms an
opinion, says Success.
The Importance of making that
first impression favorable one can
not be overestimated. 1t helps to-
ward the object to be gained. The
nicely 'groomed," clean-cut man,
dressed in good taste, and carrying
himself with that confident air of
gentility which is fnseparable from
good attire, feels sure of his ground,
and can talk with the man who is his
superior in a business sense without
displaying those many little evil
dences of uncouthness which creep
out in ones dress, Apeech and man
ner.
If you have an important part to
phy in your business life, remember
that you must dress up to it. The
shabby and shiftless, the unshaVen
and the unrefined cannot rise above
the mediocre. They are the men who
fill the want" columns of newspa-
pers, and who ply those calhngs
where applicants are informed that
$100 week can be made without the
slightest knowledge, effort or skill.

IN GERMAN SAUsAGES.
Foreign ingredients of the Artdcle
Are RigfdHy Excluded from
the FatherIand.

Among other titles which this day
has to fame is that it inaugurates a new
bra for the German sausage. Not, be is
understood, the article most common
iy known under that name in England,
but for the genuine article, the sausage
made in Germany. 1t happens thus:
Some years ago the powers that be in
Germany resolved that more stringent
examination Of meat was necessary in
the cause of health. Representations
were made, however, to the effect that
much of the meat in one of Germany's
staple foods, the sausage, came from
abroad, very largely from Denmark
and in part from ireland. Desiring, it
may be, to protect the German breeder
against foreign competition. or actu-
Rted merely by sanitary enthusiasm,
the German Legislature framed the law
which to-day and henceforward ex-
cludes all foreign ingredients of the
sausage from the fatherland.
This does not appear a cause for
much enthusiasm, but some have sup
posed that disasters will incontinently
overtake the bacon trade. The con-
nection is at first sight obscure. No
bacon is exported from these islands to
Germany, and consequently whether
Germany prefers to protect" her own
bacon or otherwise is a matter of in
fnitely little importance to us. But we,
or, rather, our Irish neighbors. do ex-
port to Germany the by-products of
bacon-the liver, kidneys, and other
delectable parts of the pig whereof the
German delights to make his sausage.
Not only from Ireland, but from Den
mark there has been a really consider
able trade in what Smthfield calls "of-
falls" All this is now thrown upon the
English market, and the result, rough
~ speaking. is that pigs liver which
y while back was worth Is, 3D., now
fetches from 4d to 3d. The ordinary
man Is apt to wonder that a pigs liver
f. worth anything toany one, but the
fact is that there is even IN England a

THE POPULAR WOMAN.
Rot Always the One who Is Noted
for Her Beauty or
Talents.

The fact that the accomplished gSrl
gets more out of life than does her
Iess fortunate sisters, does not make
her more popular or congenial, by
any means. Women without either
talent or genius have been adored.
Attractiveness does not consist In
erudition, says American Queen. 1t
is something apart from mental quail
tiles. The girl whose attachments are
ordinary, or even a little below par,
frequently possesses the power to
rule men-by making them feel emf
nently pleased with themselves. Since
this power is the most important in
gredient in the recipe of attractive
ness, the girl who possesses it is con-
sidered fortunate indeed.
1t has been noticed that the accom-
plished girl frequently strikes note
-unconsciously or otherwise-of as
sertiveness bordering on aggressive
ness. She is duly sensible of her SUI
perior faculties and is often impa-
lent in listening to the conversation
of inferior minds. She is also apt to
be patronizing-a quality which is
uncomfortable even to the most ignor-
ant.
The superior, didactic young wom-
an who goes about looking for recog-
milton of her superiority is not likeE
to find it. People are apt to discover
qualities more readily where there is
less effort TO exhibit them. The at
tractive girl permits others to dis
cover whatever charm she may pos
sess.
Power is not effort. 1t is a silent,
seemingly passive, force which domi-
mates merely by its existence and
controls through others recognition
of it.

considerable demand for such things.
Even Smithfield is not quite prepared
to say what is done with them. Prob
ably they go to the poorer districts,
not to be made into sausages, but to
form snacks and titbits savory and
cheap at once. "Offals," in fact, form
one of the curious but not unwhole-
some foods whereon many person live,
but which few of us ever hear of, see,
or taste, says the London Telegraph.
That there is a large demand, even in
London, is obvious, for Of late years
the Americans have found 1t worth
while to send over their products-of
course frozen. The result of the Ger
man protection has been TO drive down
the price for the moment, and for lit
tie while there will be rejoicing in
many poor homes. But the present low
figures cannot last. II is not worth a
Danish merchants while to send his
produce to London at the price of the
hour and sooner or late-the time will
probably be fixed by the warmth of the
weather-priees must rise. 1t should,
however, be clearly understood that
only the price of "offals" has been or
will be affected from this cause. The
bacon market cannot be influenced. for
the low price, of "offals," though IL
may slightly diminish the profits of the
bacon merchant for awhile, will not de-
range the trade.

The generous offer of the Standard
UNDERGROUND Gable Works, through
its manager, Mr.. W. A. Conner, that
ali the water necessary for sprinkling
the streets would be gladly furnished
by. that concern, shows a spirit which
bodies much good for Perth Amboy.
This is strictly manufacturing city
and the fact that the plants located
here take such an interest in the well
fare and comforts of the inhabitants
speaks we'll.
In the struggle between capital an d
labor which is now going on all over
the country, the capitalists are, in
some instances, lookedlupon as a class
working solely for their own ipookets
all the time. This,is not so in Perth
Amboy. Here, all are working in
harmony for the welfare of the city
at large. This has been demonstrated
more than once and it is again shown
by the action of Mr.. Conner. when the
people were crying for relief from the
dust. The fact that the proprietor Of
the sprinkling cart did not feel war
ranted in availing himself of the. offer
does not in the least detract from the
offer. It was generous and large
hearted andGn the interest of the city.
41iC Uftfzens appreciate the action
Of the Gable Works, even If they
oonld not enjoy its benefits.

HOW TO SAVE MONEY.
Take Advantage of Half Price Offer Made
by C. A Sexton.

In these times when living expenses
have increased from thirty to fifty per
cent, it is unusual to hear Of a standard
remedy being offered at half price.
Yet that is the way 9. A Sexton the
popular druggist is selling DR.. Howard's
celebrated specific for the cure of dys-
pepsia and constipation. In addition to
selling fifty cent bottle, containing a
months treatment of sixty doses, for %
cents, he gives his personal guarantee
with every bottle he sells to refund the
money il it does not give satisfaction.
This unusual offer has brought hun
dreds of customers to his store in the
last few weeks, yet out of the many bot
ties of DR.. Howard's specific he has sold,
but one customer has asked to have the
money returned. This was done with
out any questions, although @. A. Sexton
does not think the remedy could have
been given fair trial.
Doctors bills can be saved by the use
of Dr. Howard's specific for the cure of
dyspepsia and constipation, and by TAX
ing advantage of this special half price
Introductory offer, our readers can save
half the regular price of the specific.
Do not let this opportunity pass to OBJ
tain a standard fifty cent remedy at hak
price. Remember that druggist G. A.
Sexton will refund your money if DIR.
Howard specific does not cure.

1t was with pleasure that the Even
ing News published the fact that a
local man was awarded the contract
for the erection of the large Chez Sc
borough plant which has located here.
Mr.. Mercer had against him some of
the largest contractors in the counry
and, it is understood, he was ridicul-
ed to some extent for trying to COM
pete with them. The fact that he
was successful shows the position
Perth Amboy holds, and is gaining,
as manufacturing and business cen :
ter.
We are not only able to care for the
largest manufactures in the country,
but we are able to build them as we'll.
The contract involves between $500,
600 and $4OO, 900 and the fact that a
local man received the contract means
that as much of this money aslpossible
will be spent here in Perth Amboy.
