1ramps and Cuff Muzzlers-

The most curious article in the

odd name-the cuff muzzler Ii con-
sists of the leg of an old stocking cut
up into short lengths and worn over
the wrist like thick mitten. and its
object is to increase the circumferen e

A Woman's Letter.

Women. it is generally admitted.
write much better letters than men.
NJ. Marcel Provost discovered tile
reason for this superiority. The OBJ
vious meaning is never the one we
should read into woman's letter.
There is always yelled meaning.
Woman makes use of letter just as
she employs glance or a smile. in n
way that is carefully thought out and
with an eye to effect And. after all,
does woman's hat serve to cover her
head? Does woman's parasol keep
off the sun? Why, then. should W.
mans letter serve to convey her real
thoughts to the person addressed. just
like the letters of some honest grocer.

Coffee" because he really does send
