the observations of many per-
who have in their own cases
3 t the efiect of wearing garments
{‘- all sorts of materials. Many of

 

é? em have found silk too cold, linen

too absorbent and cotton too close
woven to be agreeable to a sensitive
surface. It seems to be an accepted
fact that cotton is the least desirable
of all materials and wool the very
best. But it must be fine wool and
free from admixture of vegetable
fiber. Silk is the best mterial to
mix with wool if mixtures are re-
quired, but the consensus of the med-
ical profession is directly in favor of

A Surprised Husband.

When I returned from my Bir-
mingham journey, said a traveler
to a London commercial, I went
home at something after 9 o‘clock in
the owning. There was my house
lighted up from top story to base-
ment, and affairs seemed to be going
on inside on a grand scale. I let my-
self in with a. latchkey and walked
into the (lining room. Strains of mu-
sic came from the back part of the
hall, and the mingled laughter and
conversation indicated a host ‘of
guests.

Presently my wife came into the
dining room drCSsed like a princess.
She ran up to me, saying: ‘

“Oh, Jack! I‘m so glad you've
come home curly."
