At the Worst, it means that tigers in the form of human ruffians are moving at large in the world.

Sse RE ce ; { | ' ‘ THE DAILY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, AUGUST 26, 1897 | a perenne READY MADE CLOAKS, From the One Pattern Kind to the Pree ent Assorted Sizes, It was only about 25 years ago when the manufacture of women’s ready to wear cloaks was in its infaney and the trade was just beginning to be looked upon asa staple industry. The businessat that time was carried on in a very crude and com- paratively ineffectual manner. <All gar- ments were cut over one pattern, there be- ing then po such thing as different sizes. ‘Lhe graceful lines which are to be found in the creations of the present time Were not known. ‘The slender and the stout woman alike were obliged to adopt the same size cloak and be satisfled with the fit or alter it. The first cloaks made in assorted sizes were the productions of a firm consisting of two enterprising brothers of the name ef Walter E. and Seth Corwin. The sizes introduced by this firm were distinguished by the names of ‘‘large,’’ ‘medium’ and ‘small’? and were about what are known now as 42, 38 and 34 measurements. This departure from the method of clonk man- ufacturing then in vogue not only created manufacturers, but as a foolish innova- ® sensation among aroused condemnation tion. They argued that they already had trouble enough in making the one size only. This disposition to throw cold.vrater on the new method did not for a ment affect the determination of the Cor win brothers. Yhey went right along manufacturing assorted sizes, and in a very short timne it became evident that they had unnastakably won public favor. The firm's grew rapidly, and their orders scon became so large that they far exceeded their outpus. #he enterprising cloak buyer found it necessary to his interest to call upon the firm daily and sit Jn the shipping room, which was also the showroom, and wait there for the garments to come down for shipment. They would literally fight for a part of the day's production, each trying to secure the lion’s share. Naturally the single mo- business Corwin brothers made money rapidly, and it was net long before other manufacturers fell into line and adopted the new method of assorted sizes.—Dyry Goods Economist. —_—— Men who work aon, in, or by the a water, or are ex- posed to the cold or damp are prone : to suffer from that ~. most painful dis- * ease, rheumatism. x. This is a disease eof the blood and «can only be per- manently cured by going back to first principles and driving out all impurities, and filling the ar- teries with a new, rich, red, healthy life-stream. This is the rea- son why Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery is an unfailing cure for that disease. It is the greatest of all blood medicines. It creates a keen and hearty appetite. It cures all disorders of the digestion and makes the assimilation of the life-giving elements of the food perfect. It invigor- ates the liver and tones the nerves. It is the greatest of all known blood-makers and blood - purifiers. It builds firm, healthy flesh, but does not make corpulent people more corpulent. Unlike cod liver oil, it does not make flabby flesh, but tears down the unhealthy tissues that constitute cor- pulency, carries off and excretes them, and replaces them with the solid, muscular tis- sues of health. It drives all impurities, disease germs and acids from the blood. In Dr. Pierce’s Co:nmon Sense Medical Adviser many sufferers from rheumatism, whose cases were considered hopeless, tell the story of their recovery under this won- derful medicine. Their names, addresses and photographs are given by their own request, and anyone who wishes to do so may write them. Good druggists sell the “Golden Medical Discovery.”’ When a dealer urges some substitute he’s thinking of the larger profit he’ll make—not of your welfare. ‘IT suffered from rheumatism in my left shoul- der and elbow,”’ writes Rev.

In The Century is an article by William Willard Howard on ‘‘Hunting the Jaguar In Venesuela.’’ The author says: There is no recognized way of hunting tigers with guns. Sometimes the hunters go outon horseback, particularly in the cattle districts of the Orinoco Nanos and the valley of the Amazon, with dogs and Indian servants to drive up the game. Of- tener the hunter lies in wait for the tiger to approach a tethered calf. When several hunters with guns go out together, there is serious peril, as an inci- dent I have in mind will show. A Vene- zuelan man of affairs whom I know well went to visit a friend on acoffee planta- tion, and incidentally to try a new rifle. The host called in two neighbors and ar- ranged a hunt. When the hunting party left in the morning, the host's two young sons remained at home with three sery- ants. Late in the afternoon when the party returned neither boys nor servants were to be seen. Asthe hunters roamed about the p.antation looking for the boys they heard a orying in the top of a slender tree. Tbe boys wers in the tree white with terror. ‘‘What is the matter?’’ called the father. , ‘‘Why are you in the tree?’’ “The tiger! boys. ‘“‘A big female tiger is at the bot- tom of the tree!’’ The tiger had been un- able to climb so slender a tree. The father pushed his way quickly through the bushes to shoot the tiger be- fore it should escape. His friends followed slowly. Ina few moments a shot was heard, and then a wild scream. ‘The hunters rushed forward. Their friend and a big tiger were rolling on the ground to- gether. They fired 12 times, as rapidly as they could work their magazine rifles, and , then tiger and man lay still. Four bullets bad entered the tiger and o<e--> =2d pierced the body of the man. enn ST ananassae ana onceennil The tiger!’’ shrieked the | — MESSAGE TO MEN Proving that True Honesty and True Phi autre D> WARN iat If any man wo is weak, nervous and deb Jitated, or who is suffering from any of the various troubles resulting from vouth- ul folly, excesses or overwork, will take heart and write to rae, | willsend him con- | fidentially and free of charge the plan pursued by which I was completely restor- ed to perfect health aud manhood, after years of suilering from Nervous Debility, iors of Viger and Urganic Weakness, I have nothing to sell, and therefore want my Own ex no money, but as ] kuew through perience how tosympathize with such sufferers, I am glad wo be able to assist any fellow—beings to a enre.

AMONG THE MISSING, The Many Disappearances That Are Never Satisfactorily Explained. ‘He walked out of his house at the usual hour and has never been heard of since.”’ This announcement, with variations, appears in the daily papers with absolutely astounding frequency. The missing per- son is searched for, advertised for, inquired about, queried over and finally goes into &® past along with other sad memories and sorrows. What becomes of the missing people is a question that the world long Qgo gave up answering. Sometimes they drift away from uncongenial homes; some- times they wander away with minds dis- erdered and footsteps leading them they know not whither; sometimes they are waylaid and sent to their long home by silent and speedy conveyance, and again they are helc as hostage for their own or the sins of. others. Not many years ago a man of position, intelligence. wealth and high culture was missing. No one could account for his absence. He left a happy home, his finan- cial affairs were all right, his relations in life im every way, so far as could be dis- covered, were precisely what they should be, and the most minute research failed to bring out any reason why the man should disappear. Time passed, and on one fatal day it came to light that a rather disreputable relative had been for some years carrying ona course of conduct that was almost certain to land behind the bars. His sud- den death by a most frightful accident brought to light the fearful state of things. In a secret compartment of his desk was {ound a watch, jewelry and other articles which his venerable and wealthy relative was known to have had in his possession on the day when last he was seen by his family. ‘The appalling secret was never known—only thus far. That the vicious young tan by some means put an end to his benefactor’s life was a foregone con- clusion, but when, why or how will never be known until the day when the judg- ment books are opened. It would bea marvelous tale conld the story of all of these disappearances be told. If it were alone those of evil life who met such a terrible fate, there would be some consolation in the contemplation of such facts, but it is frequently the inno- cent, the unwary and the kindly disposed who are the victims of such a fate.—New York Ledger. Uncle Sam‘s First Postage Stamps. “In July, 1847, Uncle Sam issned his first postage stamps,’’ writes Fannie Mack Lothrop in The Ladies’ Home Journal. “In England, seven years before, Rowland Hill, ‘father of the penny post,’ introduced the ‘sticking plasters,’ as the staimps were contemptuously called. John M. Niles, our postmaster general st that time, tried heroically, but in vain, te move congress to authorizes stamps for thiscountry. His successor, Cave Johnson, was more fortu- nate, and the bill desired was approved on March 3, 1847, the stamps not being issued, however, till August, though the time ap- pointed was July 1. Only two values of the new stamps were introduced in 1847— a Sand a1l0 cent stamp, bearing, respec- tively, the portrait of Franklin in a bronze tint and Washington in black. ‘The first purchaser of stamps in the United States was Henry Shaw, the father | of Henry Wheeler Shaw (better known as | & cer, Goitre, Cretinism, Obesity, Corpul- Josh Billings, the humorist). Mr. Shaw was in the postmaster general’s office on Aug. 6, 1847, when Mr. Johnson entered with the printer froun whom he had just received sheets of the new stamps. Mr. Johnson passed a sheet to Mr. Shaw for inspection. After giving the stamps a hasty glance Mr. Shaw, perhaps with an eye to future fame, took out his wallet, counted out 15 cents and purchased one of each variety. The ‘5’ he kept as a curios- ity, the ‘10’ he presented to Governor iiriggs as an appropriate gift.”’ Right Off the Leather. “I wonder if Queen Victoria has sam- pled that old tokay which the emperor of Austria sent her?’’ “They say tekay has the flavor of old leather.’’ ‘That so? Well, I may get the tokay flavor tonight.’’ ‘*How so?”’ “I’m going to ask old Bullien for his daughter. Ke’s a kicker, you know.’’— Cleveland Plain Dealer. One of the oldest, if not the oldest, Eng- lish firmsis that of Richardson, leather manufacturers of Newcastle-on-Tyne. The predecessors of this firm were leather sell- ers to the monastery of St. Hilda, which was disestablished at the time of the ref- ormation, and this can be proved from cantemporary records. you NEED Hood’s Sarsaparilla | § it your blood is impure, your appe- tite gone, your health impaired.

He bought 178 veres from the government on the city site where his town lots, 15050, ae now selling for $5,000 each. : Mr. Ladue was fortunate enough to be successful jn his trading post investments to have on hand ample capital to carry _ out his plans, and there is no man living who is better on Alaska and the great North West Territories than Mr § Joseph Ladue. He has just returned from that country to his # old home in Schuyler Falls, N. Y., where he passd a large § portion of his boyhood and eurly manhood. Mr. Ladue let § his home nearly twenty years ago to seek his tortune in the West, going first to the Black Hills, where he was it in gold mining, thence to Arizona and the Pacific Coast, and finally located in Alaska and the North West, where he has covered almost the entire country since 1882.
