Accommodations,

The most accommodating people in
the world are tailors. You'll have to
hand 1t to them. They're always will

are reminded of this undoubted truth
by the experience of friend of ours
last Wednesday. He got measured for
a new suit, When the ceremony was
over he smiled and said in his winning
way: "I'll be frank with you. can't
pay for this suit until the latter part
Of next month. Will that make any
difference?"
"Not the slightest difference. You're
an old customer, and you shouldn't
mention such things"

SPIRIT AND DRUG TAKERS.
Physical and Psychic Changes That
Grow With the Habit.

Two marked changes are noted in all
spirit and drug takers. One of them Is
physical and is noted by changes in the
face, eyes, tone of voice, manner Of
walking and general expression and
control. The heart is irritable and de-
ranged in its action. There are muscu-
lar feebleness, nutrient disturbances,
with insomnia, and unusual emotional
excitement or depression. The general
health, conduct and appearance, as
well as capacity, Of the person are
changed.
A second change of symptoms noted
is the psychic one The person is bold,
assertive, egotisticaI or the opposite
His former manner OF hopefulness or
depression is altered. Where he was
frank before. he is now secretive, un-
truthful. unreasoning. has little respect
for his words and statements. incurs
obligations, asserts or denies emphat-
lcally matters of no consequence. His
general appearance and pride of char
acter are lowered.
These symptoms may be unnoticed In
the early stages. but later they are
prominent Both the physical and
psychic are intimately associated with
each other. yet from the very begin
nIng there may be marked differences
