THE AMERICDS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER: TUESDAY. MAY 5, 1S91.
HNM Sacl.tr tlMMM
It u' said that a congressman cannot
lire on loss than $3,000 a year in Wash
ington. I happen to know that it costs
a society reporter a nice round sum. 1
am aa economical as I can be, bat my
expense* creep np in spite of me. In the
first place there is the car and the cab
fare. Washington is a city of magnifi
cent distances, and any one who goes
into society has to travel from one end
of it to the other, over and over again,
in making calls. I walk when I can.
bat I hare to pay from $3 to $0 a week
daring the gay season in car fare. As to
dress, there is another big item, though
Washington has so many different peo
ple from all parts of the world that one
can wear any sort of a decent gown and
not be oonipicnona
Then there sre the gloves and the
shoes One's hands and feet most be
well dressed whatever the rest of the
~may be. I find that it always
pays to wear good gloves. And then the
cards. Of coarse the lady correspond
ent most use the engraved card, and
what a lot of them it does take. Five
hundred is nothing, and I know of some
ladies who ose many thousands during
the season, and Sir Julian Pauncefote
once ordered 10,000 within two months
As the cheapest engraved cards cost a
cent apiece this would represent $50 a
month for cards alone. Of count 1 do
not mean to aay a society reporter needs
any snch number, bnt they cost enough.
-Mi— Grundy's Letter.
Cushions Galore.
Cushions seem to be the perennial de
light of the avenge woman. This is an
age of cushions, and her soul rejoices in
t»wn- The saddle bag cushions still ex
ist and are likely to, as they have hap
pily solved the “tidy” problem. Thorn
wretched things, abhorred by mankind,
are gone, it is hoped, never to retain.
Bnt having hung the saddle begs over
the backs of our chairs, there must still
be cushions galore for window seats,
couches, corners, to fit in uncomfortable
angles—cushions unlimited and of every
variety. The melon cushion looks rather
pretty If it is well made, bnt the acorn
cushion is newer and is being shown at
the art shops. This, which is of coarse
many times the size of its forest proto
type, has the acorn of pale green silk
and the cup of darker green, which is
pat on rather fall and sewed down in
spots to give the raised, uneven look of
nature.
Another pretty combination of the
acorn is reddish brown plush and pale
yellow silk. A loop is sewed for the stem
to take bold by. There well defined
shapes, however, cannot be recommend
ed as satisfactory for general m*ar.
Plain, square, oblong, oval or round
cushions last longer in every way, and
can bt so different in material and deco
ration as to supply the needed variety.
White silk .cushions wrought in gold
embroidery are used in very dainty
apartments, but their delicacy hardly
fits them for cushion
Dyspepsia has become the most com
mon disease of the country; all classes
sre not exempt, attacking tlie young as
well as the old, caused no doubt from
our mode of living and tbe too free use
of tobacco, etc., and yet it is one of tbe
most difficult diseases we have to en
counter. in the last five years Dr. Holt
discovered a remedy, (Dr. Holt's Dys
peptic Elixir), np to this time baa not
failed to cure in a single instance- We
can refer yon to W. A. Wright, Comp.
Gen. of the State, Judge K. F. Lyon, Mr.
George Dasher, Macon, Gs, Dr. L. P.
Dozier, Georgetown, Ga., Mr. Jos. Har
rison, Columbus, Ga., and hundreds
of others If desired. Manufactured by
Dr. Holt’s Dyspepsia Elixir Co., Monte
zuma, Ga. Bottles double former size.
Price $1. For sale by all druggista.

Comptroller-General Wright says he

Hawkers snd Peddlers.
What ear-splitting cries we hear daily
In the streeta of every large city ! But
these itinerant dealers who hawk their
wares about are, when under proper re
striction, a useful portion of the commu
nity, and not such nuisances as the ca
tarrh hawkers. This is a stubborn dis
ease to conquer, but Dr. Sage’s Catarrh
Bemedy does it. it It mild, sootbingand
antiseptic, unlike snuffs that Irritate, or
solutions that burn. It corrects offensive
breath, and restores taste, smell and
hearing. Nasal catarrh often ends in
consumption. Apply the only cure in
time. Price SO cents, by all druggists.
