REMARKS.
BREWED FROM
SOME QUEER FREAKS...
Đos of the most extraordinary canar of eccentricity on record was that of the Green Man, who was a Brighton, Eng- land, celebrity at the beginning of the pre- Bent century. This individual, whose dame way Henry Cope, carried his affection for Nature's favorite color to such an extent that he drossed himself habitually in grein pantaloons, greon waistcoat, green frock, and green cravat; besides haying his re- sidence painted green, and furnishing it with chairs, sofas, tables, curtains and evon beds of the same huo. He paraded the Steyne daily with a green silk handkerchief in his hand, and his buttons, seals and so forth were green also. To show the ex tremity of his devotion to the elor he worshipped, bo lived entirely on green fruits and vegetables; but here he overcit the thing, with the result ho paid the penalty of shattered health. In fact, so far did ho dobilitato himself by injudicious
vegytorianism that he becane mnd, and
one fine craing horrified the people he had previously used by committing
WATERS UNSUR-suicide from the cliff,
PASSED FOR
PURITY.
BREWED ONLY WITH BAVARIAN
AND
A wealthy ecountrie recently diod in a Canadian provincial town: C to the time of his death he dwolt if a secluded house, admitting no one but a char wontar, who prepared his mente, and a nows agent, who brought him thirty or forty journals at a time. One day even they could not ob tain admission, and the palice were called upon to intervene. Upon entering the golitary bedroom in the house--a room as squalid as it well could bo---the reclusa was. found dead on the bed, which could only be reached by passing through a ravine, the sides of which were composed of thou- sands of newspapers and novels, whose. pernaal had boon the sole delight and c cupation of
of his wasted life.
An eccentric Nottingham, England, man was a strong in his Toryism in bis eccentricity. He caused his cottin to be his lifetime, and painted true
(the Tory colors). He used it as a
BOHEMIAN HOPS, that it was all right in dimensione.
Unsurpassed as a tonic for the ladies. Once tried by them they will agree with the remarks
3
of our other lady friends and continue to patronize us. For the gentlemen it is a cooling and refreshing drink. All who have tried it stand by it. We only ask one trial and will then rest on our merits.

Another eccentric individual who in Philadelphia was afflicted with a passion for collecting funeral escutcheons. This freak was however, unly a part of his mud- ness, his sale cujoyment in life being attending funerals; and; he would, trard ang distance for the purpose of playing the part of mourner to a man he had neter kuown. In this extraordinary fancy, he reduced himself to poverty.
Women in all ages have enjoyed a con, sillatable reputation for eccentricity. Tt. is recarried of one Connecticut woman that she has never altered her style of drass since she was 18. The consequence is that occasionally the fashions coine round to her, and for a brief period she is a is mode. The story is told of another woman who wuro stockings of different colors and gloves of opposite hues. -
