Miss Magle, far from showing evi

poverty, received her callers In a baby
blue tea gown, caught at the throat
with a star set with diamonds. Mhe
carelessly tossed around her neck a

after admitting her visitor, and ad

however, failed to conceal the extreme
breadth of a pair of remarkably black
and heavy eyebrows, which barely es

“I mean Just what I have written,**
she said.
“I shall sell myself to the highest

Dr. Jaeger s Normal Sanitary UhdsrcletHing
NO BETTER GOODS EVER OFFERED TO THE AMERICAN PUBLIC. They EXCEL in every
textile quality; iu fineness of wool; iu softness and delicacy of texture in various weights, from the lightest
summer to the heaviest winter wear; while the PECULIAR MODE OF WEAVING the “Stockinet,” of
which they nre all constructed, imparts an elasticity and freshness not to be found in any other brand.
In the manufacture of this underwear only the natural gray or white wool is used. This being
undyed, and of the FINEST QUALITY, it makes a garment so soft and pliable as to be not only NON
IRRITATING, but positively pleasurable to the most delicate skin.
THE STRUCTURE AND INFLUENCE of the fabric are such as to produce a GLOW OF HEALTH
on the body's surface, while the anatomical and physiological adaption or the garments practically averts
the danger of taking cold from the sudden changes so peculiar to our climate.
