By taking Hoods sarsaparIlla, which, by
the remarkable cures it has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself to be a potent and peculiar
medicine for this disease. Some Of these
cures are really wonderful. II you suffer from
scrofula, be sure to try Hoods SarsapariIla.
"My daughter Mary was afflicted with scrof-
ulOus sore neck from the time she was 22mOnths
old till she became six years Of age. Lumps
formed in her neck, and one Of them after
growing to the size of pigeons egg, became
a running sore for over three years. We gave
her Hoods Sarsaparilla, when the lump and

appeared, and now she seems to be a healthy

1t is not, perhaps, a far-fetched sug-
gestion that we may detect good deal
of natural character In the idioms en-
ployed for salutation and affirmation.
Thus the English, who are always busy
and doing something, say: How do
you dop The Frenchmen, who are
always thinking Of their appearance and
of the impression they may make by
their department, ask: ''How do you
carry yourselfp" The German, whose
wits are apt to be wandering in maze
of speculation, inquiries: How do
you find YOURSELF" The Italian, who.
when in good health, stands easily and
moves gracefully, deems it the most
pertinent question to ask: How do
you standpn or How do you gop" An
other curious fact is that the southern
and catholic nations always say: II
believe So" where the northern and
protestant nations would say: II think
So" 1t is as II the former took every
thing on trust as matter OF belief,
while the latter refer everything to
matter of opinion. The Romans seldom
gave token Of assent by means OF q
simple particle like our Eyes, but usu-
ally answered by reaffirming the ques-
toner's proposition. Thus to the in
quiry: ''Do you believer" they would
reply: Il believe" Their "Ita est"
seems to have correspondent to the
Americanism, That's So" One might
pursue this investigation through all
the idioms Of social intercourse in differ
ent countries, says the New York Ledg-
err. and 1t would probably prove possible
to explain most OF them by national
temperaments and habits OF thoughts.

noticed a gown of dull pea-green
china silk, that was especially worthy
Of note. Its elegant simplicity was its
chief attraction, for it was perfectly
plain, excepting delicate traccry of
black embroidery about 1t.
The coat and skirt were very long,
giving the wearer an effect of extreme
height and grace. The hat resting on
the black shining hair was of pale green
lace, straw studded, with large jet cab
ochons: mass of puffy light blue chif-
fon with several stiff black aigrettes
springing out of it served as trimming,
and the chin straps were of black vel
vet. The whole arrangement was ex-
ceedingly Frenchy, the daring combi-
nation of blue and green giving it a true
Partisan atmosphere.
To those who intend Drawing the ter
rors of mal-de-mer, fashion has neat
little budget of hints to offer in the
way of what is correct to wear on
shipboard.
First the gown. 1t should be of all
wool, serge, or tweed, as these stuffs
do not wrinkle and they bear wetting
without harm. Navy blue is the best
color for the gown, not only because it
is the most fashionable, but because 1t
is durable and in excellent taste. The
gown should be made severely plain,
easy-fitting, and not difficult to put on
or take off.
II is impossible to comprehend how
much solid comfort can be slowed away

softness is so delicious when she lays
her weary head back on her steamer

Have it covered with some bright,

bit of color, to rest ones eyes upon

What Women should do to Withstand
the Ravages OF Time.


the Ravages OF Time.
Women who wish to retain their
youthful look and graceful carriage
should give more attention 10 the build
ing up OF firm flesh and plump muscles
by healthy bodily exercise, which
brings not only clear compilations and
bright eyes. but health and happiness
and fuller enjoyment OF life In every
sense OF the word. Particularly II Is
useless to put faith In so-called COM
plexion beautifers and lotions for re-
moving wrinkles.
They are simply caused by fabby
condition OF the muscles Of the parts
where they appear. Some fibers OF a
small music being inserted In the In
tegument near the outer angle OF the
eye, for example, each contraction Of
the parts allows little wrinkles to ap-
pear. This need not and does not
make permanent ones. 1t Is only when
the muscle has lost its fullness from
ill-health or age that these little lines
radiating from the outer angle OF the
eyes become "crow's-feet." What is
true OF the muscles OF these parts Is
equally true of other parts Of the face
and body
1t is the duty Of every woman to be
as charming as possible, and there are
many simple remedies for softening the
skin which are not injurious. 1t Is the
bleaching fluids which some women
use Unfortunately. which destroy all
healthy functions of the skin. that the
wise woman will do we'll to avoid.
Alum is one Of the ingredients used in
tanning leather, 1t is also the founda-
ton Of many complexion washes. No
comment is needed. TO grow old
gracefully is possible to every woman,
and to battle with wrinkles is practi-
cally useless, except good physical de-
yelopment be the first consideration.
The latest schools for the rounding
out OF the muscles teach series OF
bending and turning which, II properly
applied, tend to keep the contours OF
the body symmetrical. Wise physi-
clans sometimes shake their heads and
declare that this form of physical cult
ure may be carried to excess. All wo-
men may not have all the time or
means to follow this course, but all who
wish to retain youthful appearance
will keep every function Of the body as
nearly normal rs possible.
Many bodily conditions conform to
the mental. Depression of spirits is
being recognized by the physicians as
condition of the body indicative OF
disease and very difficult one to con-
tend with. Women seem particularly
liable to fall into this condition, and
there is no surer enemy to good looks.
Lead an active life, cultivate a cheer
full spirit, make each day so full OF use-
fulness and loving kindness to others
as to leave no time for small and petty
thoughts, which dwarf the mind. just
as noble thoughts and aspirations help
to make a beautiful countenance; re-
membering that to have performed
well our part in life, constantly aiming
after that which is good, will give a
contentment of mind conducive to
health and happy old age.

For some time there has t-en frank
struggle going on in Paris against the
too plain, too fourrcau gowns-and,
after all, how many women do they
really suit? The number Is as limited
as the number of those with the figure
of a goddess, and that is why the fash
ion makers are suggesting little paniers
draped on the hips to make the waists
look smaller, and to veil the too-much
developed figures, and give little
fullness to those who are too slender.
The prettily-drapped little paniers
