symptoms of the disease. This can always be
done if it Is kept at band. 60o and $1 bottles

In Which Ills Mniinlah Way In Itrgnri! to

Mr. Bowser ha been that way over since
we wero married, and I supjioso ho will keep
It up to tho ond just llko nil other husbands.
When ho brings homo half a dozen collars 1
know that a circus Is alxmt to begin, and I
preparo nceonllngly. After sup;er ho goes
upstair to try them on, nnd I take a seat on
tho lower stop, knowing full well tho part I
am to play. For n couplo of minutes nil Is
quiet. Then 1 hoar tho mutter of distant
thunder, followed by nu oxclnmatiou oft
"By tho great horn sioon, but If I had that
man hero I'd murder him I"
About sixty second later his head appears
over tho banister and ho shoutsi
"Mrs, Bowser, como up hcrol"
"What's wnntodl"
"Como up hero I Look nt thoxo collars, will
you 1"
"What's tho matter r
"Matter! That Infernal shirt maker ought
to bo scnl)edl I told him No. 15, nnd ho has
made them nil No. SOI"
"Nonsense I Hero's tho stamp on thorn,
nnd they nro nil right. Try ono on."
Ho buttons one on nnd thoy lit splendidly.
Indeed, ho novcr hud such n fit. Ho looks in
tho gins, however, grows rod In tho faco, and
shoutsi
"Ixxk nt Itl I'll kill that man before noon
to-morrow I Ho ha done it to splto mo!"
"Mr. Bowser, thnt collar I all right You
novcr had ono that fcot"
"Right! Rlghtl Lookatlthunchuptntho
bnckl Boo how It sots In frontl Observe how
tt Is sawing nway at my enrl You want tue
to look llko n bnlioou, don't you? I'll walk In
on that shirt mnkor after breakfast to-morrow
morning, and If 1 don't slam tho buttons
olT'n him then I'm n linrl"
"But I can't seo nuythlug wrong with
them."
"No, of courso notl If thoy inado mo look
llko u baked owl you couldn't ieo anything
out of tho wnyl Mm. Bowser, Pvo got to
have a long talk with you. There nro somo
things which must Imi settled I"
And next morning he puts on ono of tho
collar without a word mid there Is never any
further fault llndlng. They wero a At nnd all
right, but ho wouldn't lio an nverago husband
If ho didn't growl nnd kick. It I when his
now shirt como up that tho whole menagerie
Is put on exhibition free gratis. Thoy Invari
ably como up of n Saturday night, and he
wants to put ono on for Sunday wenr I
know what I coming, and I tnko' Uiby over
to mother' and give tho cook liberty to go out
for tho day. lam hardly ready for him when
tbo magazine explodes.
"Mrs. Bowser I" ho shouts over tho bauls
ter, "Weill"
"Did Lynch bring homo my shotgun last
nlghtl"
"What do you want of n shotgun I"
"To kill tho infernal idiot who mado these
shirts! I'll have his life before tho sun sets
to-ulghtl I'll murder him right before his
wlfo nnd children I"
"Why, Mr. Bowser! What's tho matter
with tho shirts!"
"Matter 1" ho yotls as ho Jumps up and
down, holding ono of tho lot nt arm's length,
"everything's tho matter! My band Is fifteen
Inches scant, nnd ho has mado these 4,000 rods
lougl Look at that bosom I Look at that
yokol I'll follow that man to tho cud of tho
earth but what I'll have his blood I"
"Why, thoy look alt right to mo. The band
is still with starch, you know."
"I'll stiffen that Idiot with something be
sides starch I Peoplo impose on mo because I
never kick, but tho worm has turned at last.
I suppose I'll bo sent to state prison for ltfo,
but that shan't stand tn tho way of my ra
ven go."
"Put on another and I'll como up and see
what the trouble is."
Ten minutes later bo calls and I go up to
find him red in tho faco and breathing hard.
I button tho shirt in tho back, pull It down
and It flu him llko a glove, but all of a sud
den ho gives a jump, waves his hand after
tho manner of Booth and exclaims:
"Yost I'll hunt him down and crush the
life out of him."
"Mr. Bowser, there's uothlng wrong with
this shirt. You nover had ono to At you
better."
"Nothing wrong! Why, It feels as If I had
put on nn old codec sack. Look at the way
It bunches up In tho nock. See how it binds
on tho shoulders. I wouldn't bo found dead
with this shirt on."
"Well, as I said before, I cant see anything
wrong with It."
"Oh, you can't! Anything is good enough
for mo, I supjxiso. If somo tool sent mo up a
shoot iron shirt you'd think it was all right.
You can go downstairs."
"But nreu't wo going to churchl"
"Church! Don't say church to mo! I'm
going out and commit murder."
About dinner time he feels caster, aud after
sapper his Indignation has all passed away.
Next morning ho puts on ono of his shirts,
and it isn't n week beforo ho is bragging of
