GAY OLD FASHIONS.

Solomon Look Sad

Dandies of Past Centuries Would Maks
Solomon Look Sad.
Compared with the gay apparel worn
by the handles of the past ages the
youths of our time in the gayest of
gay raiment make but poor show.
The bishop Of Ely in the fourteenth
century had a change of raiment Tor
every day in the year. The Earl OF
Northumberland boosted no less than
sixty cloth Of gold suits at this time.
In the time Of Chaucer the men wore
clothes as many colored as Joseph's
coat, so that while one leg would he
a blaze of crimson, the other would be
tricked out in green, blue or yellow
contrast
Even as late as the middle of the
eighteenth century, dandy would
dress himself in a vivid green coat.
waistcoat of scarlet. yellow breeches
and blue stockings.
And the gentleman of a few years
later wore. among other vagaries, a
coat of light green. with sleeves too
small for the arms and buttons too big
for the sleeves: a pair of fine Man
chester breeches; clicked silk stock
ings; club of hair behind larger than
the head which carried it; a hat not
larger than sixpence.
1t was a common thing in the early
part of the eighteenth century for d
man Of fashion to spend several hours
daily in the hands Of his valet. Among
the many operations which took up
this time was 1.-The starching of the
beard and the proper pertaining of the
garments, the painting Of the face ana

WORKED LIKE MAGIC
RED, scALY ECZEMA YIELDS TO
SAxO SALVE.

A Highland, N. Y, woman writes:
Since 1901 l suffered from eczema and
my skin was very tender, red and
scaly, and could find no relief until I
used Saxo Salve. The first applica-
ton worked like magic, in less than a
week the scales were gone and now
the skin is healed and smooth, thanks
to Saxo Salve.
In all forms Of eczema, and all other
crusted or scaly humors and erup-
tions, Saxo Salve has given astonish-
ingly good results. The great improve
ment that 1t makes in the first few
days shows plainly that you can place
full trust in it's curative power.
We have SO much confidence in it
that we give back your money if you
are not satisfied with Saxo Salve. Leo

Let me be a little kinder,
Let me be little binder
To the faults of those about me,
Let me praise little more;
Let me be when I am weary,
Just a little bit more CHEEKY,
Let me serve little better
Those that am striving for.
Let me be a little Drawer
When temptation bids we waver,
Let me strive little harder
To be all that should be
Let me be a little meeker
With the brother that Is weaker,
Let me think more OF my neighbor
And a little less of me.
Let me be a little sweeter,
Make my life bit completer,
BY doing what / should do
Every minute of the day;
Let me toll without complaining,
Not humble task disdaining,
Let me face the summons calmly
When death beckons me away.
