The late Archbishop Corrigan vas
one of the gentlest of men; but when
1t was necessary to reprove anyone
under his charge, whether it be priest
or Ayman, he never hesitated to do
30. At one time there was vacancy
in the rectorship of one of the large
churches Of New York city. and sew
eTal clergynea were talked about for
the position. Two prominent women
who We're members OF the church
called upon the archbishop and urged
the selection OF one OF their clerical
friends. AS they were leaving one
woman turned to the other and said,
impressiyely:
when you get home, pray that
the Holy Ghost may give the arch
bishop the grace to appoint the right
man."
Like Fash the archbishop turned
around and said, in icy tones:
While you are at it ask the Holy
Ghost to give women the grace to at
tend to their own business. Harp

RED LEATHER SHAVING, CASE.

by them and the holder finished off by
loop of ribbon to hang it up by. Very
simple and effective is such a gift.
A stationery case may be contrived
from a thin wooden box well sandpa-
pered to a uniform smoothness. The
sides should be slanted SO that the
front is not so deep as the back. and
the interior should be lined with Japa-
nese gold paper, with a middle card
board division to separate paper and
envelopes. Round the top and bottom
of the box, neatly tackled with tiny up
holsterers' pins, place Japanese en-
broidery, and the wooden space in be-
tween may be stained with pretty tint
ed wood stain or covered with lincrus-
ia paper glued on before the embroid-
cry is tackled, the same decorative mo-
tiff being also carried out ON the lid,
which is attached to the body of the
box by tiny brass hinges.
Tiny calendars and stamp boxes can
be purchased for such trifle that it is
not worth while making than ait home,
but the articles described are always
more or less expensive to buy and can
be made quickly and economically, two
recommendations which should insure
their being carried out by home work
ers.
a clever woman may make a shaving
case out Of red leather for some fortu-
nate mans Christmas gift. The soft
leather Is cut In squares for the back
and front pieces and stenciled In gilt.
Before putting in the shaving paper
the leather for the front should have a.
round mirror inserted. The paper and
leather are then fitted together i'm a.
diamond shape and caught up with o.
leather strap.
A suitable present which most men
detest buying. which a woman herself
can make and which under the circum-.
stances she may present even to an
intimate friend is a dress shirt pro-
tector, for wear to the theater, to the.
opera, to the dinner or to tho social,

The men OF eightyfive and ninety
years of age are not the rotund, we'll

slender diet Be as careful as he will,
however, a man past middle age, will
occasionally eat too much or of some
article of food not suited to his consti-

berlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets to
cleanse and invigorate his stomach and
regulate his liver and bowels. When
this Is done there IL no reason why the
average man should not live TO old age.

Commonly, the FIRST symptom of Uco1d
is chilly feeling, accompanied by sneez-
ing, or tickling in the throat. The most
frequent of external causes are draughts,
wet or cold fest, or going from hot rooms
suddenly into cold ones. More frequently
there is an inner cause-nainely the stagna-
ton of the blood caused by constipation or
biliousness. Almost the first symptom is
the feeling of cold in the feet and increased
discharge from the nose.
No one ever takes cold unless consi-
pated, or exhausted, and having what we
call fnal-nutrition, which is attended with
impoverished blood and exhaustion ofnerve
force. Tonics consisting of large portions
of alcohol, iron or cod liver oil do not bring
the desired changes in the blood, because
they do not enter the system and are not
absorbed into the blood with the exception
of the alcohol, which shriVels up the red
blood corpuscles when it does come in
contact with them. We recommend the
botanical extract of Dr. Pierce because it
contains no alcohol, and offers reasonable
and scientific method of treating the blood
by improving the nutritiye functions of the
patient. The "Golden Medical Discovery"
accomplishes this, by FIRST restoring the
enfeebled digestive organs, so that food,
the natural tissue builder, will be oigested
and assirnilated.
Accept no substitute for DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery There is moth
