Jones, In spite Of being really kind
~, honest fellow. with q loving wife, a
cozy home and q dourishing young fam
fly, was rapidly becoming slave to
drink. Night after night he went home
In q state which made his little wife
heartsick, until she, with . woman'a
ready wit, devised a scheme, and with
the aid Of the family physician gave
Jones such q shock that he probably
never will drink again, says the New
York Press.
Like all other men. Jones usually lost
all recollection of his actions after he
had reached . certain period ofintoxica-
ton. When. 1--WE or nix weeks ago. hear
rived ct his homo In . at state for the
experiment his wife had him put to bed,
AZ he lay there. dead to the world, the
doctor put his right leg into casing Of
plaster Of paris and splints, taking care
to bind them 60 tightly that when Jones
recovered consciousness all sense Of
feeling would have left the limb.
!. It was q pathetic. scene, mixed with
grim humor. when Jones awoke the next
day and was told that in trying to ind
the keyhole he had fallen down the area
and broken his leg. His remorse was
augmented by the pressure on his leg,
which the doctor took pains to keep alive
at each successive dressing, and by the
time Jones had been in bed month all
desire for stimulants had left him.
/ It 10 not likely he will drink to excess
again, but II he reads this story Of his
loving wife's new ctre for the alcoholic
habit he will surely drop that limp which
he now affects during his daily walk
down Broadway.

Characteristic Worth

The woman who carries herself well
is more apt to command respect than
the woman who trudges along with
her head inclined forward and her
shoulders in a STOPPING position The
possessor of graceful, erect carriage
unconsciOusly impresses us as having
characteristic worth. says the Pitts.
burg Observer. There are many noble
hearted women who really do them
selves injustice by the awkward way
they carry themselves. 1t is very
hard for others to see beauty and
grace Of heart in an unlovely outward
appearance. 1t is the exterior charm
of the rose that gives fitting expression
TO It's hidden sweetness.
Although there are many beautiful
women with worthless hearts, still that
fact does not weaken the other fact
that spiritual nobleness and n fair body
are consistent, harmonious associa.
tion. Everything that appertains to
the elevation Of the soul affects for the
better the aspect of the body. beautlfy-
ing and refining 1t. Just as rare jew.
els need fitting caskets to rest in, so IL
Is only meet that lovely souls should be
enclosed in bodies that are beautiful

Winter Goats.

Many of the coats. or. to speak more
correctly, the outer garments. are
combination of coat and cloak. and
hang loose from the shoulders. back
and front. Such a garment as this
would ordinarily have been considered
in the light of wrap to be worn over
any gown, but now IL is very often
made part of the costume itself and
is most elaborately trimmed with lace
and velvet. The coats on the Louis
Quinze order, with long fitted side
pieces, are very much trimmed They
have square pieces Of velvet let into
the cloth or alternate pieces of lace
and cloth. with q narrow braidlng
around each square. This trimming
Is down the front of the coat on the
wide turned-back cuffs, and around the
collar. but this, of course, is a very
much modified effect. for the collar
Is merely straight band. For older
women, this style of coat made in
heavy silk is very smart: 1t also looks
well In velvet with medallions or ap-
pllque of heavy Cluny or guipure lace.
The long dropping shoulder is one
of the most marked changes in fash
ions of the winter, and the very much
trimn.ad shoulder capes which are seen
on both house and street gowns are de-
cldedly new since last year. The cash.
mere gowns and the soft cloths of all
kinds are particularly suited to this
new fashion. The heavy cloth of any
material that is stiff does NOT hang so
