MONDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1898.

AChicago man has written to the
President suggesting that the Philip-
pines be traded for Ireland. He is
probably Mr. Dooley.

These be unpleasant days for boy
kings, boy orators, boy leaders, boy
preachers, boy doctors, and other boy-

- ish freaks.

The love-sick young women who are
trying the suicide route out of their
troubles ought to bear in mind the fact
that there are other young men.

The New Haven News says that Ex-
Governor Morgan G. Bulkeley, who is
credited with senatorial aspirations, is
also credited with an adequate equip-
ment of “sand” and an unconquerable
aversion to the “ white feather.” In
other words, he is a “stayer.” The
contest between a stayer and a candi-
date who is no quitter, is sure to pre-
sent phases of absorbing interest to the
onlooker. It is the experiment over
again of an irresistable' object coming
in contact with an immovable object.

EVE’S RAMBLINGS.

COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG

THE WOMEN. BY ONE
OF THEM.

Party of ladies were lunching togeth-
er one day last week when the conver-
sation turned upon the subject of money
and the ways in which women hoarded
it away.

Many amusing stories were told of
the strange devices of our grand-
mothers, who perferred an old stocking.
carefully hldden away, to the best in-
vestment ever offered although loses
were frequent.

But there are many other methods
of storing away money as amusing as
the stocking habit, and in the days, too,
of banks and burglar-proof safes. It
was only the other day I read of a
woman who used a big clock as a
hiding place, and in it she had the sav-
ings of years.

In an unguarded moment she told of
it, and two hours later discovered her
Even then I do not seriously be-
lieve that she took that lesson to heart;
in fact, I am inclined to the belief that
she hunted up a new hiding-place, los-
ing her faith in the clock, but not in the
principle which made her select such a
repository.

Considering the careless manner in
which the average woman looks after
her money the losses are amazingly
few. A purse carried in the hand
through crowded shops. thoughtlessly
laid upon the counter where it offers
the hardest kind of a temptation to
peorle without a conscience, is some-
times lost to the owner. but in nine
cases out of ten it falls lLIL-O the hands
of a right-minded person and is restored
intact.

Money slipped heedlessly into the
bosom of a gown seldom seems to work
itself loose, and the useless-looking lit-
tle pockets are apparently as safe as the
Bank of England. It is nothing but
pure luck, my friends.

Annoyances often arise from this bid—
ing habit, which is characteristic of our
sex. A woman who used to find a new
hiding place each night for her valu-
ables ochn ‘forgot her selection and
worried until they were discovered.

One who trusts to the mattresses and
pillows for safety often forgets to re-'
move the hidden articles in the morn-
ing, and more uneasiness and trouble
arises. There is one habit of some wo
men which jars upon me for some un-
known reason, and that IS slipping
money into the stockings which they
are wearing.

It is safe without doubt, but it is not
nice to have‘a roll of dirty bills next to
one‘s skin, is it? It is much nicer to
have secure hiding places for the valu-
ables which are necessary for use, and
put superfluous ones in safety vaults.
Money is a great deal safer in the bank
than in the best hiding-places you can
conceive.

FEMININE CHAT.

‘ As Soon as you get into the habit of
going to bed early you feel as though
you had elevated your moral tone.

The very best children will at this
season be seized with an uncontrollable
desire to play truant.

The little things in life are the ones
that wear us out—a toothache is more
exasperating than a broken leg.

How very few of as ever dream of
the many times that the happiest ap-
pearing women cry themselves to sleep.

There is more certain revelation of
a woman’s age than to hear her hum
a tune that was popular fifteen years
ago.

How few of us use the word telephone
in its entirety. Shortened to ’phone it
suits more the American love of ab-
breviaton.

Some of the new bracelets are so
heavy that were they not in the jewel-
ry class women would regard them as
handcuffs. ’ -

The person with creaky shoes is al-
ways the most active onein a sick room.

We all know the adage concerning
the bird who can sing and won’t, but
there is a truer one about the women
who can sew and won’t.

Fancy a hatpin costing one thousand
dollars—you might fancy it, but would
not care to buy it, as it would certainly
slide out with the same ease that the
penny affairs do.

And now the agony of Christmas buy-
ing is pressing hard upon us, and the
spirit of Peace and Goodwill is crushed
by that other one which calculates on
how big a return a twenty-five cent
present will bring.

The kind of love that outlasts the
poetry and sentiment and thrives amid
the prosaic is the real sort, and there
is very little of it.

There is nothing that makes a woman
so provoxed as to have a man break an
engagement with her. Should she be
the offender she expects forgiveness,
but when the shoe is on the other foot
things are different.

THE KIDNEY COMPLEXION

 

 

 

The pale, sallow, sunken-checked,
distressed-looking people you so often
meet are afflicted with “Kidney Com-
plexion.” ‘
Their kidneys are turning to a
parsnip color. So is their complexion.
They may also have indigestion, or
suffer from sleeplessness, rheumatism,
neuralgia, brain trouble, nervous ex-_
haustion and sometimes the heart
acts badly. ‘
The cause is weak, unhealthy kid-
neys.
Usually the sufferer from kidney
disease does not find out what the
trouble is until it is almost too late,
because the first symptoms are so like
mild sickness that they do not think
they need a medicine or a doctor until
they find themselves sick in bed.
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root will build
up and strengthen their weak and dis-
eased kidneys, purify their diseased,
kidney-poisoned blood, clear their com-
plexion and soon they will enjoy better
health.
You can get the regular sizes at the
drug store, at fifty cents and one dol-
lar, or you may first prove for yourself
the wonderful virtues of this great dis~
covery, Swamp Root, by sending your
address to Dr. Kilmer 8; Co., Bingham-
ton, N. Y., for a sample bottle and a
book that tells all about it, both sent
to you absolutely free by mail. When
writing kindly mention that you read
this liberal offer in THE NORWALK
GAZETTE.

Velvet Very Fashionable.

Velvet in all shades and varieties will
no fashionable, both as an accessory
and for the making of redingotes, un~
der—dresses, and complete costumes.
Black undoubtedly takes precedence,
but marked favor is shown to new, very
elegant shades in Russian green, dam-
Son, orchid purple—a superb color,
with a glow of crimson in it—to dark
sumac red, and a. complete grade of
rich, becoming browns, which include
the Havana, cedar, seal, chestnut, and

marquise dyes.

A PARIS SUGGESTION.

 

 

a, E
Robbed the Grave.

A startling incident. of which Mr.
John Oliver of Phila. Pa.. was the
Subject, is narrated by him as follows:
“I was in a most dreadful condition.
My skin was almost yellow.eyes sunken,
. tongue coated, pain continually in back
and sides, no appetite-gradually grow-
ing weaker day by day. Three physi-
cians had given me up. Fortunately,
a friend advised trying ‘Electrlc Bit-
ters;’ and to my great joy and surprise,
the first bottle made a decided improve-
ment. I Continued their use for three
weeks, and am now .a well man. I
know they saved my life and robbed
the grave of another victim.” No one
should' fail _.to try them.

Handsome Silks;

Dressmakers still continue to recom.
mend the very handsome peau de soie
silks to those who do not admire the
solid, rather garish lustre ‘of satin,
Peau de soie has rich, half-lights on its
surface, and the silk is twilled, making
it more durable than satin or many
kinds of silk. These beautiful fabrics
appear this season in many lovely tints,
in one color, in new chameleon effects,
in small flowered designs, and also in
very pretty devices appropriate for ac.
cessories and fancy waists.
