Rainproof Suits.
New York Tribune.
The time is coming, and it is not
far off, when men and women will
wear rainproof suits as well as coats,
for the process of waterproofingcloth
has become so extensive that any
cloth, can be treated without altering
its color. Indeed, it has been a long
day since fashion gave to men such
a boon as the raincoat has proved.
The raincoat doesn't show on its
surface that it is a raincoat, and it is
worn on the sunniest day as well as
the wettest with equal facility and
good taste. While it is at present a
'distinctive garment, there are signs
which point to a rainproofing here
aftei- for all styles of overcoats.That
in vogue is an easy step to the app!i
cation of the process to suits of all
descriptions. How handy a water
proof full dress suit would be at some
banque:s! The process is cheap
enough. It costs only twenty-five
cents a yard. In addition to the
made to include a so called "moth
proof" quality by some firms. Vanish
the moth balls!
The Visitor-Your cook~ is perfec
tion itself. How do you manage her?
The Hostess-Easily. We learn
what dishes she likes best herself
and then we have those only.

sembly with superb scorn. "that has
ever got up in the morning, leaving
his tired, wornout wife to enjoy her
slumbers, gone quietly down staire,
made the fire cooked his own bream
fast, sewed the missing buttons ox
the children's clothes, darned the
fam,;y Stoicking. scoulredl the pots and
kettles, cleaned and filled the lamps,.
and done all this, if necessary, day
after day. uncomplaining? If there
