Judge -, one of^the great law
yers of the last generation, charged a
client a retainer of $1,000 in an impor
tance case, relates Victor Smith, but
settled the suit before the Judge had
opened a book or written a line con
cerning it. His clint called to see if
be would not refund part of the money,
he lawyer seemed surprised at the sug
gestion. "Refund!'’ he exclaimed.
"Refund, did you say? My friend, that
is a kind of fund unknown to the legal
profession.”

Anti-Divorce Prescription.
A New York minister says marriage
is not a failure, and that more than
2.500 of the 3,012 couples he has united
are happy. His advice to those who
would wed and be happy is largely
summed up in the following half dozen
don'ts: Don’t many when too young.
Don’t marry until you can support a
wife. Don’t marry a girl who can’t
cook and sew. Don’t live in six rooms
when three are enough. Don't marry
unless you suit each other. Don’t
come to me for a divorce.

“DOUBLE-DECKER'’ SHOES.
r»d 8tyl« for Women With Soles la- '
nrmouslr I.»r(fc.
“Double Deckers" are the latest tiling ^
In women's shoes. The style is what j
the dealers call a fad style. It has a t
double projecting sole, enormously i
thick. The lower deck is a good three
quarters of an inch wide. The upper
is a quarter of an inch in width and is
rope-stitched to the lower deck. The ^
extension runs round the shoe, heel 1
and all. With this formidable sole <
goes an upper which is equally start- f
ling. A low double decker of patent *
leather has an elaborate punched toe
and a trimming of the same style ex- *
tending entirely around the shoe. The ^
eyelets are huge brass ones. Altogether (
it is a shoe about as graceful as an ele
phant's hoof. A shoe salesman was
showing hie set of samples the other
day to a layman. He lifted the double (
decker and laid it down with a sigh, i
“That’s the sort of shoe that makes i
the manufacturers want to lie down l
and die,” he said. “Of course, that’s *
an extreme, but look at all the rest of
these heavy shoes for women. If it f
was not for the extreme west and
south we might as well give up the
ghost. Now, here's the shoe that wom
en used to wear before they took it
into their heads that they’d wear ar- i
mored cruisers on their feet. But the (
cruisers are steady and long ‘wear- 1
ers,’ ” and he sighed dolefully. “Here's
what we call a freak toe. The shoe 1
has an absolutely straight line on the 1
inside, then sheers olT suddenly on the <
outside, so that the point of the toe is 1
right at the inside corner of the shoe. 1
Instead of a round toe there is simply 1
a corner. That shoe sells best in Chi
cago. These are the best New York 1
sellers,” he said. “This one is a light- 1
w’eight kid shoe, with a patent leather
tip, flexible sole, and what's called a
medium toe. This other is heavier and
has a larger toe, but is not a freak. One
is a dress shoe, the other a street shoe. *
Take it all in all, patent leather is the
best selling shoe in New York today,
more's the pity for the feet that wear g
the shoes. Here's a new thing; looks ,
like patent leather, but is more flexible *
and porous, and is guaranteed not to a
crack. That’s ideal kid.” T

VARIETY IN BREAD.
Krllith of Food Ilrprnd* on Vurlrty of
Flavor*.
One of the Important facts about
our relish of food, says the American
Kitchen Magazine, is its dependence
upon a certain variety of flavors. Dys
pepsia has been produced by the con
stant use of the same foods cooked in
the same way, and cured by the mere
adoption of a more varied diet. There
is danger in pampering the appetite,
of course, and surfeiting it with va
riety; but this lies principally in the
pastry cook’s department. A variety
of breads is much less dangerous than
a variety of pies and sweets. The old
southern fashion of five daily breads
for the table, was a much more health
ful one than the Northern fashion of
unlimited cakes and pies. That num
ber of breads is, however, excessive.
One may need five breads during a
month, but certainly not at any one
meal. * * * Besides the many
kinds of bread to be secured by the
use of the different grades and varie
ties of wheat flour—spring and winter,
high-grade and low-grade, whole
wheat, graham, etc.—there are corn
breads, rye breads, barley bread and
breads made from a mixture of corn,
rye, wheat, barley, etc. Having, then,
an almost unlimited variety of breads
to choose from, and bearing in mind
what bread should yield to a well-con
sidered dietary, we certainly should be
unwise not to make our breads contri
bute, as far as possible, not only to
the nourishment of the body, but also
to the promotion of good health in the
correction of such minor derangements
of the system as may be reached by a
judicious selection. A variety of per
fect breads, not only breads with va
rious flavors, but of different kinds,
containing different amounts of those
substances found in the wheat, would
serve better than a thousand doctors
to keep our country people in sound
health.
An Unfortunate Deduction.
Sergt. Kelly, of the Irish bar, In the
early years of the nineteenth century,
used to indulge in a picturesque elo
quence, racy of the soil, but unfor
tunately he would sometimes forget
the nne of argument, and would al
ways fall back on the word “there
fore,” which generally led his mind
back to what he had intended saying.
Sometimes, however, the effect was al
most disastrous. One time he had
been complimenting the jury, assuring
them that they were men of extraor
dinary intelligence, and then branched
rtff into a statement of his case. With
a wave of his hand a smile on his face
he proceeded: "This is so clear a case,
gentlemen, that I am convinced you
felt it so the very moment I stated it.
I should pay men of intelligence a poor
compliment to dwell on it for a min
ute, therefore I shall proceed to ex
plain It to you as minutely as possi
ble.”—Green Bag.

PE-RU-NA AVERTS DANGER
In That Critical Time When a Girl Becomes

LMI88 BESSIE KELLOO.

Miss Bessie Kellog, President of the
Young Woman’s Club, of Valley City,
North Dakota, writes the following
from First street, South, Valley City,
North Dakota:
••Ever since I matured I suffered with
severe monthly pains. The doctor did
not seem to understand what the
trouble was and the medicine he pre
scribed from time to time did not help
me. He finally suggested that I have
an operation. One of my friends who
had been cured of a similar affliction
through the use of Peruna, advised me
to give It a trial first, and so I used It
for three weeks faithfully. My pains
dlmlshed very soon and within two
months I had none at all.
••This Is six months ago, and during
that time I have not had an ache nor
pain. I give highest praise to Peruna.
Every woman ought to use It, and I
feel sure that It would bring perfect
health."—BESSIE KELLOO.
The experience of Miss Bessie Kel
log, of North Dakota, ought to be read
by every girl In the land. It Is a critical
period In a woman's life when she
ceases to be a girl and becomes a wom
an. Very few pass through this period
without some trouble. The doctor Is
called and he generally advises an op
eration. Perhaps he will subject the pa
tient to a long series of experiments
with nervines and tonics. The reason
he does not often make a cure is be
cause he does not recognlzo the trouble.
In a large majority of the cases ca
tarrh of the female organs Is the cause.
Peruna relieves these cases promptly
because It cures the catarrh. Peruna is
not a palliative or a sedative or a ner
vine or a stimulant. It Is a specific
for catarrh and cures catarrh wherever
It may lurk In the system.
This girl was lucky enough to find
Peruna at last. As she says, the doc
tors did not seem to understand what
the trouble was and the medicine he
prescribed from time to time did not
help her. Peruna hit the mark at once
and she Is now recommending this
wonderful remedy to all the other girls
in the United States.
Thousands of the girls who look at
her beautiful face and read her sincere
testimonial, will be led to try Peruna
In their times of trouble and critical
periods. Peruna will not fall them.
Every one of them will be glad and It
In to be hoped that their enthusiasm
will lead them to do as this girl did—
proclaim the fact to the world so that
others may read It and do likewise.
Mrs. Christopher Fllehmann, Amster
dam, N. Y., writes:
"I have been sick with catarrh of the
stomach and pelvic organs for about
five years, and had many a doctor, but
none could help me. Some said 1 would
never get over it. One day when I read
you almanac I saw those who had been
cured by Peruna; then I thought I
would try It I did, and found reller
with the first bottle I took, and after
two more bottles I was as well and
strong as I was before.”—Mrs. Christo
pher Fllehmann.
