Lace and Tulle Bonnets.

Small capotes and the pointed-brim
pokes are made of many rows of white
lace, crimped, plated or gathered,
either Valenciennes or Oriental lace, for
May receptions, June weddings, and
garden fetes in midsummer. The crown
is of piece lace gathered over wires, and
the brim has puff of the same on its
edge; all the space between is covered
with narrow crimped frills of lace fall
ing forward. Sometimes a row of Gilt
lace is placed to fall over the pull of the
brim, or there is q narrow plating of
red velvet there to give character to this
delicate bit of lace, and the Strings are
of narrow red velvet ribbon. Valen-
ciennes lace pokes are made for young
ladies to wear with dresses of any color.
They are only medium large, with the
brim pointed, or else turned back away
from the face, and a bow of velvet rib
bon or little bunch of flowers is put in
side the brim. Gilt thistles, bluets or
roses are clustered on the left side and
there are no strings. There is always
plating of the lace inside the brim
Sometimes embroidery is pulled across
the crown, and Alencon lace is made
into iabots that cover the brim, Then
a great rosette of red or of yellowyelyet
is added on one side, or there may be
three rosettes that encircle the brim, or
else there is yellow or black velvet rib
bon tied in one stiff bow of two long
loops tightly strapped, and having two
forked ends; this is placed low on the
right side, while on the left is lace ro-
settle, out of which springs a
yellow aigrette, or there may be
a round cluster of yellow rose-buds
with an aigrette in the center SILL
other pokes are made Of pale blue or
pink satin Surah, with embroidery, lace
and two colors of ribbon for the trim
ming The Irish point embroidery with
its open designs, and the Pounpadour
embroidery with raised petals and leaves
of muslin, are most effective for these
po6es, and are not costly either I'm the
pure white or in ecru tints, and any in
genious young woman should be equal
to making them in the careless, simple
and irregular style that belongs TO these
pretty pokes. Black lace bonnets are
mostly of French thread or real Chan
lilly lace and lyons tille They are
made in the designs just described for
white bonnets, and usually have some

at Nichols drug s;ere, and as soon as had taken

and after taking three bottles my sideache and lame
BACK are cured, and truly testify that Hunts
remedy is an article of great merit, and will do all
that is claimed for it, and / know of many other
people In Portland who have found cure in Hunts
Remedy after all others failed to do any good and
recommend it to all who have kidney or liver disease
hoping that this may be the means of relieving some
sufferer who does not know of the merits of Hunts
