fine cinnamon cloth suit, with plate
buttons, the waistcoat frlnyed with n
silk fringe of the same color, and a
rich yellow lowered satin morning
gown lined with Il cherry colored satin.

money do not counterbaIance sense
OF instability: the broker. because only

wages exceed the enhanced value OF his
finished products the minister. because
bis flock Is sinful and Indifferent TO

increase in income and more. leaving
less than ever for puinage and fine

list.
Statistics seem to demonstrate that
we are prosperous, but personal obser-
walton eontradicts the conclusion
Worthy charities never required so
muchj yesterday we were accosted by
