"I bnr looked there," replied Mirths, -but they haven't anything that I want. 1 last need a simple suit, but I want good material and It wustt b neatly and Well made, on that 1 eould use for almost any occasion. I would prefer a ready made suit, but tboae that florins ft Co. have np- bear to be mud of poor, flimsy mate rial, und they are deckrd out with aoch cheap, flashy, dowdy trimming that Jost ciiiiuot bear to wear them," repUed Martha.

' "No; That doe not suit m either, for When I' hv to pay my far, my betel bill and other Incidental expenses It makea tbe cost too high and also nutes more ume than I can spare ror the purchase of one suit." said Martha. "Could yon not order one? ; Didn't I tea some mnll order catalogues around here awhile ago?" asked the Interested husband. . Yes; I could do tha but I am Boat afraid to risk It. . Still, their style appear to be good, and toe prices quoted seum reasonable. 1 bavo been thinking about doing that 1 will look them up again aitd.se what I can do," answered Martnar'' Martha' Heart Bank..

Dfeta Mot Pronounced. ' " Tbe longer Martha had the suit the (tore numerous and pronounced be es mo its defects, until at last' her pride abetted, and sbeefused longer to wear the miserable parody, She said she would much prefer to wear a "good"' old suit than a "poor"- new one.
