WAlTON'S FAST.

The "PIunser" Did Even More Than
tho Doctor Suggested.
Race track lovers of some years ago
all knew "Plunger" Walton-Francis
Theodore Walton. as he was christen-
ed. Everything that Walton did he
did as thoroughly as he plunged on the
races This habit was illustrated by
his famous fast. Rheumatism caused
him considerable suffering for years.
Across the street from him lived a
doctor. who said one day:
walton. you eat too much. That's
what's the matter with you. Do as
say and you will cure your rheuma-
tism. Don't let food tempt you SO
much. Just taper of your meals. and
don't eat except when you really feel
like it,

OLD AGE.

Old age as 1t comes in the orderly
process of nature is a beautiful and
majestic thing 1t stands for exper-
fence, knowledge, wisdom, counsel
That is old age as it should be, but
old age as it often is means poor di-
gestion, torpid bowels, sluggish liv-
er and a general feeling of ill health,
dependency and misery. This in al
most every instance is wholly unnec-
essary. One Of Chamberlain Tablets
taken Immediately after supper will
improve the digestion, tone UP the
liver and regulate the bowels. That
feeling Of dependency will give way
to one Of hope and good cheer. For

1RESPASSING IN ENGLAND.
If No Damage Is Done Intruders Need
Have No Fear.

If No Damage Is Done intruders Need
Have No Fear
Many timid pedestrians in rural
England are frightened away from in
viting fields by the notice "Trespass-
ers Will Be Prosecuted" They need
have no fear, says an English ex-
change.
AS the law stands any trespasser
who does the smallest damage-in-
lures a fence, breaks a small branch,
etc can be summoned before a mag
istrate and fined. But If he does no
damage the landlord must bring an
action at law and get an injunction.
This costs a lot of money, and unless
the trespasser is man of means the
landlord won't bring his action at law
All he can do otherwise is to ask you
to get out. II you go peaceably you
can return an hour later and repeat
the visit as often as you wish. Moth
ing can be done beyond asking you to
leave again. But if you resist then
sufficient force can be used, and if
you show fight you may be legally
knocked down. your legs tied and your
self bundled on to the road.
The landlord may, however, play
some tricks on you. He can saw a
bridge crossing stream, so that you
will get a ducking; he can dig a pit
for you to fall into, and he can 80 fix
the stile you are likely to cross that
you will break it, and then he can
have you up before the magistrate. If
you don't commit any damage, how
ever. you can trespass to your hearts
content.

Good Dressing at Small Cost.
Materials of Quality Simple and Becoming
Lines-The Prettiest Possible Hat, and
Neat Footwear.
Correspondence of The Journal


NEW YORK, Feb. 3. The woman who
wants to appear we'll turned out at small
cost cannot afford to buy materials Of
doubtful quality, or to have any gar
ment that is i'll made or unbecoming.
Her hat and small belongings must be
smart and neat, and she can indulge in
no vagaries of eccentric fashion.
THE OPPORTUNITY.
Just now, when even in Paris nunllke
simplicity of attire is the mode, and here
in New York practical and pretty Amer
lean fashions are forging to the front,
the clever dresser has great opportun-
ity to plan we'll and purchase with true
economy. Anyone can buy cheaply, but
it is an art to get just the right kind OF
apparel without sacrificing quality tc
price. One well made outfit of good cut,
style, and material, is worth three OF
fiimsy fusslness, sure to wear common
and shabby looking.
SIMPLICITY AND FITNESS.
Simple, becoming lines and fitness OF
style for the use for which the dress is
designed is the first essential. while be-
comingness of cooring and reliability OF
material are other features not to be lost
sight of. This does not mean extrava-
giant expenditure, quite the contrary,
but it does mean wise choice of mater
ials liable to give satisfactory wear.

host of zephyrs, crinkle seersuckers,
galateas, and batistes all with the name
''BonteX" woven in the selvage as
guarantee of style and satisfactory
wear, give women an unusual oppor-
tunity to secure pretty dress patterns at
any price that suits her purse and needs.
Every store that carries an up-to- date
stock shows these new goods, or procures
them for customers, so a woman can
judge for herself whether she likes
them.
PRETTY HAT.
A pretty, becoming hat makes heap
OF difference in woman's appearance.
and here again a simple style, with the
scant trimming that is most mCdish is
not hard to find for a moderate cost. The
woman who buys her 4 illinery ready
trimmed can do best by buying either
ahead of the season, or late. Prices are
always higher at the beginning of a
season.
NEW LINES.
Dress lines won't change much for
some time, outlines remain straight and
narrow, loose at waist ard closefitting at
hips, skirts are comfortably wide but
not full. Hats are to be small as a rule
and set we'll down on the head, and very
light trimmings remain fashionable.

straight over to Camp No. 9. where we intend

camp, andsthen went towards the north, with a

Rio Grande, hard on their trail They had an
encounter that afternoon and the federals
were reported to have killed ten, among them
the fierce looking cabecilla Rosales. These
rebels were the same gang who had robbed and
burned Gutierrez and killed many people in

the hacienda people engaged packing all their

whole hacienda is empty and deserted, with
