It is true, drink ing and over-eating overloads the stomach, but failure to assist nature in regularly dis posing of the partially digested lumps of food that are dumped into the bowels and allowed to rot there, is what causes all the trouble. CASCARETS will help nature help you, and will keep the system from filling with poisons, will clean out the sores that tell of the sys tem’s rottenness. Bloated by bile the figure becomes unshapely, the breath foul, eyes and skin yellow; in fact the whole body kind of fills up with filth. Every time you neglect to help nature you lay the foundation for just such troubles. CASCARETS will carry the poisons out ot the system and will regulate you naturally and easily and without gripe or pain. Start to-night—one tablet—keep it up for a week and help the liver clean up the bowels, and you will feel right, your blood will be rich, face look clean, eyes bright.

A downtown tailor who charges large prices for hia clothes has profit ed by the system of the misfit clothing stores.this winter, and on the strength of it he has had work enough to keep his employes busy all winter, Bays the New York Sun. “Just after the hol idays,” he said, in explaining hia! scheme, "my business is usually dull. I had a lot of goo'd hands whom 1 didn’t want to discharge, and I thought I would employ them in making up overcoats that would fit the average man and take my chances of dispos ing of them. I have a lot of regular customers who did not get new over coats this year. I had the measure ments of a number of such men in mind when I had the coats cut out. When one was finished I dropped a note to a man whom I knew it would fit, telling him I had a misfit coat which I thought would suit him. He came around promptly and bought it for $65. I would have made him the same coat to order early in the sea son for $70, but that wouldn’t have pleased him half so much as getting a misfit that just fitted him. Men are Just as fond of bargains as women. I could afford to sell the clothes which 1 made in this way cheaper than if they had been made to order during the rush season. The men worked on them between regular jobs. Nearly all the clothes which I have thus far manufactured on speculation I have sold for good prices. Men who wouldn’t order a coat have bought coats which they have thought were misfits, but which, in reality, were made after their own measurements. Each of these customers has felt that I was doing him a favor in notifying him of the misfit.” scared a girl Into Hysterics end Is Sued For 95,000 Dsranges By Her Father. Wallingford (Conn.) special to the New York Journal: Charles I. Par malee, president of the Wallingford Golf Club, society leader and promi nent business man of Wallingford, one dark evening ran at Ethel Bartholo mew, the sixteen-year-old daughter of another prominent business man, and cried “Booh!” to startle her. He fright ened the girl in real earnest, and when he said, “Why, don’t you know me, Ethel? It’s all a Joke,’’ the girl was in a dead faint. The fainting fit was followed by an attack of hysterics. With Miss Bartholomew at the time was her school chum, Clara Booth. Parmalee apologized for *• his act, and took the two girls to Miss Booth’s home. Ethel Bartholomew did not re cover there. The hysterical attacks continued, and according to the papers in a suit for $5,000 damages that has been brought by the girl’s father, James Bartholomew, against Parma lee, she is now on the verge of nervous prostration, and lies in a critical con dition in a sanitarium, in danger of never recovering her health and san ity. Parmalee has expressed his sor row at the result of his joke, and his friends have tried to pacify Bartholo mew, but the father will listen to no peace overtures. The formal suit for damages was filed to-day. Ghost Played Piano. West Point correspondent New York Herald: Residents of Rugertown, a suburb of the post, are interested in a weird concert which was given one night this week in the parlor of the home of Andrew Kuhn, a private ’of the army service detachment. The performance did not begin until just as the old clock in the tower of the academic building had struck the hour of midnight, the artist was invisible, and ghostly sonatas, symphonies and the like were rendered in wonderful style. It seems that Kuhn, who is an old resident of the post, had retired with his family for the night, when they were aroused by very loud and thrilling piano playing. The Bound seemed to be coming from the parlor. Upon their entering the room they found it quite deserted. The piano lid was closed, but some Invisible agency was sounding the keys. They were badly frightened. It might have been a cat, but the piano was closed, or it might have been rats nibbling the strings, but the strings have been found to be uninjured. ---— ■, A Glimpse at Lloyds. The general public, even in London itself, needs to be told what Lloyds is, and so it will be better to state at tbe outset that it is the greatest center of the shipping interest all over the world and it is surprising that, unlike its near neighbor, the Stock Exchange, it is so little known. Mr. Frederick M. Kenward contributes to Harmsworth’s Magazine an exceedingly interesting article descriptive of the old institu tion. Lloyds owes its name to its founder, a Mr. Edward Lloyd, the pro prietor of a cofTee house at Tower Street, the earliest mention of which is about 1668. It was to this coffee house that persons connected with shipping used regularly to resort; and Mr. Lloyd, who seems to have been a man of considerable enterprise, took care to collect all news and information be possibly could in connection with his customers’ business until his coffee house gradually came to be looked upon as the headquarters of all mari time business, and especially of ma rine insurance. nt* Trad a In Frozen Heats.
