The announcement that Col. Bryan
is about to wind up his glorious war
record was by no means unexpected.

Spain’s air of injured innocense will
not deceive the world. How did Spain
deal with people who were so unfortu-

' nate as to fall into her clutches?

The NewYork architect who declares
that nothing can be made fireproof is
liable to get into an argument with Bob

Ingersoll.

 

An Ohio man pursued an ofiice for
several years and died the first day he
occupied it. This was hard luck, but
he died happy.

The successful statesman must be able
to stand a great deal while he is run-
ning not to mention the ability to lie
at the same time. I

THE OTHER FELLOWS.

The recent failure of a firm of “stock
brokers” in this city should be a warn-
ing to those who play the bucket shops
and especially to the women patrons of
the game. ‘ It is doubtful, however, if
the lesson will be taken to heart. As a
rule it is safe to say that the bigger
and easier the profit the more immi-
nent is the final crash.‘——Hartford Post.

The brewers are making a great ado
over the tax on beer, but their cus-
tomers who pay it are not saying a
word—New Haven Palladium.

A great deal is being printed in cer—
tain Connecticut papers these days in
the way both of prophecy and of state-
ment that will make very interesting
reading,a month or so from now. We
refer to that to which we allude——Hart—
ford Couran t.

Let us hope that every state will‘

speedily formulate and enforce laws
against six day bicycle races. There
are laws against suiCide and such a
race as that ended in New York on
Saturday is merely another form of
suicide for those who take part in the
exhibition—Bridgeport Post.

EVE’S RAT/LBLIN GS.

COMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG

THE WOMEN. BY ONE
' OF THEM.

 

 

. An English feminine writer declares
herself in favor of smoking—for her
husband. Home woiil'l not be homé
without the man who smokes, without
the odor of tobacco, and she gives reas-
ons .vhy she likes to see her husband
smoke.

He is not one of those men who never
have a pipe out of their mouth, but a
nice, sensible, temperate fellow who,
when business is over. settles into an
easy chilir, [ills his pipe, lights it, and
unfolds the evening paper.

“Then, to my fancy, a man is at his
best," she declares, “for, while I work,
he reads aloud the choice parts of the
news which he thinks will interest me.
Shoiild he have encountered more than
an ordinary share of, difficulties or
trouble, he forgets them all after he
has finished a nicely-cooked and care-
fully served dinner, and is ready, for
his pipe.” '

That is true of most men. Worries
vanish like the smoke from their pipes.
Disagreeable little money matters
which the wife approaches with fear
and trembling the husband regards
with complacency after he has become
enveloped in tobacco smoke.

I don’t say that the habit of smoking
is a good one to form, but once it has
taken root it is hard to pull up. I don’t
say that smoking agrees with all men,
for I know that it does not. But I do
say that a large'number of men suffer
no material injury from the use of to-
bacco and find it an amount of comfort
that nothing else will replace.

1 have always felt sorry for the man

who had to choose between his pipe ‘1

and his sweetheart, for I believe that
hOWever much he may love the latter
he will miss the former horribly, and
all she can do will not fully make up
the loss. .

I have had a distinct feeling of ag4
gravation against a woman of whom I
once heard who objected to her hll~
band’s cigars, not "because they made

 

 

 

her ill—that would have been a reas‘~
onable excuse—but because his evident
enjoyment of them irritated hen, -

She decided to cure him of his ‘smok-
ing habit, and hit upon what was prob
ably the only manner in'Which igcould
be done. It was surely the surest way
to success.

One night after dinner he settled
down for his evening smoke, lighted a
cigar, and heaved a sigh of satisfaction.
His wife, a comparatively new one, by
the way, watched him fora few min-
utes and then calmly walked over to
the tray on which he had laid out a
supply andtook up one with the re-
mark: “My dear, since you find such
evident comfort and delight in smoking
I think I’ll try it.”

She actually lighted it- and took more
than one puff before he recovered his
wits. He quietly walked over to the
fireplace and tossed the half-finished
cigar into the glowing coals with the
remark:

“If my comfort and enjoyment must
be secured at the cost of seeing you
smoke, I do not want them. Ishall
smoke no more.” And he never did.
The worst of the story is the gusto
with which she related the incident on
sundry occasions when the subject of
masculine habits and their cure came

up.
I consider her conduct nothing short
of intense selfishness.

Smoking is to a man what tea is to a
woman, a nerve soother, a strengthen-
er, a brain clearer. I wonder what
woman among us would give up our

fragrant cup of tea for anything short .

of the doctor’s orders I Surely, we
would regard the man who asked such
a sacrifice as a brute not to he humored.

. And the woman who asks a man to
put away forever his cigar and pipe—
what is she? A reformer, I heard
somebody say. No, she is not unless
the man’s health is Suffering from the
indulgence. Then she has a right to
interfere.

There are women who grow positively
ill at the smell of tobacco, and when
they marry smokers they ought to pro-
vide a little den for them where they
can do as they like—get fumigated and
return to the society of their family.
If fathers and brothers acquire the
smoking habit and you don’t want the
odor of tobacco all through the house,
give them a room with a couch, easy
chairs, a large table and good light,
and let them be comfortable,

A dear old Unitarian minister, now
laid to rest, used to say that we all had
a perfeét right to do whatever does no
injury to others or ourselves, and if he
was right, have not the men the right
to turn themselves into chimneys so
long as theyvinjure neither themselves
nor those connected with them.

FEMININE CHAT.

Chinclilla is called the carriage fur.

This is undeniably the children’s
season. .

The turkey takes no pride in being

_ told that it is dressed to kill.

And now we are buying things for
others that we would dearly love to
have ourselves.

Some persons act over an actress off
the stage as though she were a perform-
ing hear.

The definition of true amiabilit-y at a
bazaar is to do everything you are
asked.

W'hen a woman once lets ambition
take possession of her, it eliminates-
every other sentiment.

Chain purses are much advertised,
but “chained ” ones are what women
need at this season.

The scent of Christmas greens fills
one With all sorts of pleasant memories
and anticipations.

When you get, to the point where
you use others instead of their using
you, the, world deems you a success.

As soon as you settle yourself to ac-
cept disappointment, you are pretty
sure to obtain what you desire.

How easy it is plan to get up early
in the morning and work and how hard
it is to put such plan into (execution.

And now we are informed that lying
is a disease. An incurable one it must
be, judging by some of the chronic
cases noticed in society.

It is apparently the fad nowadays to
buy wedding rings that look as little as
possible like the plain gold alfairs of
tradition and custom

The matinee idol who can look un-
conscious as he walks along the street
frequently proves himself a greater
actor otf the stage than he ,is on it.

Persons who assert that women have
no sense of humor have never seen a
young mother insisting upon her bach-
elor brother holding the baby.

And now one is puzzled to tell
whether drug stores are really for the
sale of drugsor are bric-a-brac and no‘
tion stores. ‘

When we hear of persons going to
different parts df the country for their
lungs it"bears a startling suggestion of
the pessibility of being able to leave
portions of their anato n y WIIL re they
choose. ‘ ‘ .

 

. Pinsnln nounitxmll;

It does notrequire an expert to de-
te‘ct' the sufferer from kidney. trouble.
The hollow cheeks. the sunken eyes.
the dark, puffy circles. under the eyes,
the sallow parsnip-colored complexion
indicates it. ‘ ‘

- A physician would ask if you had
rheumatism, a dull' pain _or ache in the
back ’or over 'the hips,- s't'oinach trouble,
desire to urinate often, or a burning or
scalding in passing it: __if after passing
there is an unsatisfied feeling, as if it
must at once be repeated, or if the
urine has a brick dust deposit or strong
odor. . .

- W’hen these symptoms are present,no
time should be lost in removing the
cause. .

Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of
the bladder, inflammation. causing
stoppage, and sometimes requiring the
drawingof the urine with instruments,
or may run into Bright’s Disease, the
most dangerous stage of kidney trouble.

Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, is a positive remedy
for such diseases. Its reputation is
world—wide and it is so easy to get at
any drug store that no one need suffer
any length of time for want of it.

However, if you prefer to first test
its wonderful merits, mention THE
N OBWALK GAZETTE and write to Dr.
Kilmer & 00., Binghamton, N. Y. for
a sample bottle and book telling all
about it, both sent absolutely free by

mail.
