THE UTILITY IOFI SIILK LINED
GLOVES.
The silk-lined glove. as it is now 1.0
perfectly made by many manufactur-
ers. should appeal to every glove
wearer.
It is a hand covering par excellence
for both winter and summer wear. and
though its adaptlblllty for the warm
season may be questioned. it is never-
theless 11 feet.
They are. in fact. very much like the
topor‘s whisky. which he sold “kept
111111 varm In winter and cool in sum-
mer."
The ease with which a silk-lined
glove may be drawn 011 the hand is in
itself 11 point of considerable merit
Furthermore. in cold weather It is al-
most thc warmest glove knovm.
1,11 summer it is an unusual thing to
see 11 person wearing a walking glove
that Is badly stained by perspiration.
although otherwise perhaps little
worn in fact.p1acticai,lynow
Silk lining will prevent this. By its
use the moisture of the hand is ob-
sorbed and the unpleasant. clnmmy"
feeling of a porspirnthn-soaked glove
is prevented. A silk-linen driving
glove is the. norm: of comfort.

Stories of the gener ally of Judge
Poland of Vermont. Ere constantly
coming to light. One of the prettiest
is about an old farmer. whom the
judge invited to dine with him one day
at the hotel in Lyndon. Vt.
The old man‘s shabby garments and
uncouth mauuerse did not prevent his
host from being heartily glad to see
him. and he was ushered into the din-
ing room with all the deference that
could have been shown the judge‘s
most distinguished frle. d.
It was the farmer's rst experience
at a hotel, and when the waiter laid
the menu card before him he asked
quickly. "What's that?"
“The bill of fare. sir." replied the
waiter.
“Take It away!“ said the old man.
with a look of triumph on his brown
face. "Judge Poland isn't the sort
that invites folks and then lets ’em pay
their own bills. I've known him. boy
and man. young teller! Perhaps you
