A Gen us in His Way.
A pattern-designer for a down-town ready-made clothing establishment, an Irishman, who was enjoying a salary of $5,000 a year in Boston, answered a call to this city and is now being paid at the rate of #7,500 per annum. He is employed but a few hours a day, but turns out very readily a sufficient number of crayon suggestions, emphasized by shears, to keep ahead of a score of cutters and hundreds of sewing tailors. He is an expert in coats, vests and trousers, and is familiar with all sizes of the ordinary every-day man. He is by necessity original, and his drawings are made with mathematical precision, but in an apparently free-and-easy outline style. In his way he is a genins to which enterprise pays tribute.— New York Times. » * » «• Delica'e diseases of either radically cured. Send cents in stamps for book.
