Spring Fashions From Godey's
Lady's Book.

Sashes serve TO redeem many a
plain toilette.
Blouses of guaze, tulle, or lace are
worn over low-necked dresses.
a pretty fashion for plain-colored
woolem dresses, is to have the jacket
facing, plastron, and sash of bright
surah.
White goods promise TO be very
fashionable, 10 matter what the ma
terial.
Bouquets should always form the
fragrant coup to the toilette of all
bridesmaids.
Many of The cutaway jackets and
blouses have the center of the back
laid in plaits from the neck down.
Lovely Persian embroideries are
imported for silk and very fine wool
Ell dresses.
Black tulle is covered with a
snowy jet embroidery for draperies
and plastron, with many pendants
from the center of the flowers.
Tinsel threads give effect to many
of the woolen novelties.
Some ofthe new shapes of straw
bonnets look like a hussar's helmet.
Long hair-pins, with Rhinestone
heads, are snowy and fashionable,
1t is not fashionable now to have
ones gowns made uncomfortably
tight about the arms and bust.
Many of the newest dresses are
made in style that was popular
fifteen years ago.
Oxidized jewelry is to be again
worn. The new designs in belt buck,
les and clasps of all kinds are very
handsome.
Turbans are to be much worn, both
down on the forehead, and back OF
the head like a bonnet. They are
made of straw, cloth to match the
dress, and tinsel goods.
Grape mourning should be of tn,
most quiet style. No display is per
mitted, or any attempt at ostenta
tious aflectation of grief.
Seersucker makes a very usefu
everyday washing dress, and may b.
utilized for travelling in warm wealth

Princess dresses are coming il
again. They are made very mucl
like those fashionable several year
ago, with the exception of loos

1t is now fashionable for little girls
those ranging in age from four I,

Mercury and Potash Vanquished

Mr. Wiley f. Hood, known TO al

Specific Is S. s.
For twelve years l suffered from
mercurial poison, with all of its tor
turing pains. | was treated by sew
eral physicians, and was dosed on
iodid of potassium abundantly. This
treatment increased my trouble. My
blood was thoroughly infected; my
skin was thick and yellow ;my stom-
ach was weak so that l could not re-
tain my food my person wes broken
out with sores which became often
sive ulcers, and my strength was
gone. Mercury brought on rheuma-
tism, aud potash had ruined my
stomach, and l thought there was
nothing left for me to do but to die
so thought many of my friends as |
went hobbling along the street. |
tried all the remedies within reach,
but to no avail. AT last a friend sug-
gested the use of Switt's Specific.
Like many other drowning men, |

came in sight. procured six bottles
from DR.. Long. The first bottle gave
me hope. The nausea of the stomach
disappeared, and by the time l had
taken the third the hard Jumps on my
neck went away; the ulcers were
healed my complexion cleared up,
my skin smoothed off, and my
strength began 10 return. l have
taken in all about thirty bottles. 1t
has made a new man of me. | am a
man of 63 years, but am strong and
vigorous, eat anything and do any
kind of work. am sound and well
1t is my honest opinion that Swifts
Specific has taken me from the
graves mouth and added many years
to my life. Iwould recommend it to
the suffering humanity everywhere
not as a universal panacea for all
diseases, but as a specific foral blood

Godey's Lady's Book for June has
one Of the most captivating frontis-
pieces we have seen yet. 1t is a
handsome sleel-pate engraving
which represents "The Puppy Glass"
at a bench show. Nine very cute lit
tie dogs in characteristic poses are
arranged on line for public inspec-
ton, and furnish a fine study of
what is most attractive in the pup
pies of some of the best breeds pat
ronized by our kennel clubs. The
June number of Godey's Lady's
Book is replete with illustrations of
fine character. An unusually elab-
crate view of an ornate interior is
furnished this month, together with
capital work design, a handsome
colored fashion plate, the usual abun-
dant illustrations in black and white,
and a beautiful cut taken from a
much admired picture by Luke
Fields entitled "Thc Village We'd
ding" The story matter in the June
number is excellent. Christian
Reid's short serial is ended, and a
new two-part story by NJ. II. House
keeper is begun. Through Fire" is
one of the stories submitted in the
Prize Competition, and shows unus-
ual strength. "The Doctors Dilem-
ma," by Leigh North, is spicy lit
lie sketch with pretty turn to it..
The short stories this month are un-
usually numerous and are all very
good. Judging from our own home
we think that Godey's should be in
every household.

FINE PrcruRE.-Mr. Charles S. Gray of
Oak Lawn, Assumption, painter from
whose brush number of works of high
order of merit have emanated, has executed
IN excellent copy of "The Boy Jesus in
the Temple" noted painting By DR.. j. NJ.
Heinrich Hoffman of Dresden, and placed it
in rattle for the benefit of his orphaned
niece and nephew, George and Lncie Deo-
courro. The picture has received the IN
qualified commendation Of our local con-
noisseurs, ans although we make no pre-
tensions to cultivated taste in such mat
ters, We have no hesitancy in declaring that
the work is an admirable one and fully de-
serves the encomiums beloved upon it.
Enclosed in handsome gilt frame, it will
prove desirable acquisition for the orna-
mentation of any parlor, and the winner
will have much cause for self congratula-
ton. The picture is valued at 800, and
there are 400 chances, at Is cents each.
Parties who do not meet Mr.. Gray can OBJ
tain chances in the rattle by leaving thei1
namss and cash at the CHIEF Office.
