A Mothers L0ve-A practi.
cal Illustration of Its
Power.

A mothers Lowell What a potent
thing it is! 1t will melt the heart of
the most hardened criminal, when no
other influence would be efectual. No
one but a mother knows its full
meaning, but every one can appreciate
it if they will. It il known, though,
that it means sleepless nights, care, in
convenience, and, if necessary, want,
hardship and death. But the subject
has been too eloquently treated by the
sweetest poets and the ablest writers to
furnish an essay for these columns.
Too many practical illustrations occur
in every day life for it to be dwelt up
on, SO that it is unnecessary to speak of
the subject further in order to make the
reader understand the full meaning of
what is to follow.
Mrs. Henry Schualen, OF Ashland,
KY, writes that her daughter has been
cured of deafness which resulted from
chronic catarrh. She tells how she had
lost all hope of her daughter (her idol)
being cured, and how overjoyed she is
at the result. After trying many rene.
dies, she says PERuNA brought a cure,
and the daughters hearing is restored.
She concludes by speaking in the most
flattering terms OF PERUNA, and then
describes in the most lovely manner the
happiness it has brought her, and re-
views the distress she experienced wi lie
her daughter was afflicted.
Dr.. A. r. Ong, Martins Ferry, O.,
writes: Il have large trade in your
PERUNA. Think it ia grand remedy"
Mr.. Robert C. Hannah, Tolesbo-
rough, Lewis County, Ky, writes: II
write to inform you of the great bene-
fit I received from the use of your
medicines, PERuNA and MANAL1N.
I had been low spirited snd very sick
for about six months with bad cough,
and my friends thought l had CON
sumption, tried number of patent
medicines, and most of the doctors in
the vicinity (and we have some of as
good as you can lind in the country,
but they did me no good whatever.
Our merchant, Mr.. Gillespie, insisted
upon me trying your remedies. / did
so, but must say I had little faith in
them at first. Before I had consumed
my first bottle, I noticed change for
the better, and to-day I am entirely
well, and as sound man as there is in
the vicinity. Icredit my cure to your
valuable remedies, PERUNA and NAN
ALIN, and recommend them to all Of
my friends"

Fashion Notes.

.
Stringless bonnets are worn by
youthful women only.
The line embroideries on fine
bonnets are marvels of artistic work
A diamond spur with ruby lash
is a favorite design for a lady's
lace pin.
Embroidered null is used for
bonnets to accompany a light sum-
mer costume.
Printed gauzes with many tints
and gill are very effective scarfs
for childwn's hats.
The rage for color in ornaments
is the same as that in every other
direction this season.
Fans of large and unique forms
are the only ones that should be
used for wall decorations.
Chartreuse is a color that embra-
ces many shades Of green, from old
BEETLE to pale cress green.
Absinthe and pale coral is a
French color combination much in
favor on the other side at present.
Large bows of white ribbon or
of piece goods, generally soft silk,
adorn many summer frooks.
Violet is a shade which is more
used this season in millinery than
ever before, OF at least for many
years,
A sort of compromise between
very high and very low head-dress-
ing is the couture which consists of
one large, heavy, loose braid con-
Meeting from the top of rhe head,
falling a little below the neck and
carried up again, where small
fancy comb or a few tortoise she'll
hair pins form a finish. Add to
this one of those natural wavelets
and you have all extremely pretty
head dressing.
The short basque waist still pre-
dominates, cut so as to escape the
hips, and at the back forms a pos
tilion. One pretty style is cut two
bretelles Of MORE descending at the
front and back and terminating in
a bow in end on the shoulders. A
demi-sleeve Of lace, finely plated
about four inches deep, from shoul-
der down, is effective. These bre-
lettes and lace sleeves are very
dressy worn over plain silk or
velvet.
A toilet just finished shows a
skirt of beige colored French MORE,
with overskirt of ecru etamine,
edged with a band embroidered in
pale blue. On the left side the
tunic opens to show the MORE skirt
and upon the right it is draped very
high. The cofsage of MORE fits
closely at the back, terminating in
tabs, while the fronts are straight
and loose, fastened at the throat
only, opening over pulled vest
made Of q piece Of the embroidered
etamine.
