IT. C. Burnett, the democratic candi-
date for sheriff, was taken violently i'll at
CIearbrooK. He had all the symptoms of
Asiatic cholera, and for an hour or two it
was feared he would die. They finally
gave him dose Of ChamberIains Collie,
Cholera and DiarrhGa Remedy, which
revived him until a physician arrived. ~
That is precisely what the manufactu-
rers of that medicine recommend for chOl-
era. Send for a physician but give their
medicine until physician arrives. If
cholera becomes prevalent in this country
next summer this preparation will be In
great demand because it can always be
depended upon. For sale by f. Kalteyer

Increasing Use of Tortoise Shell

Increasing Use of Tortoise Shell.
New York Mail and Express.
The glittering, heavy, cheap john
metal productions of the last decade
are being relegated to the past, and in
their place is growing decided
preference for the delicate, mUttled
and semi-transpsrent creations of the
natives of India, China and japan,
who understand the use and value of
tortoise shell better than any other
people on earth.
The multitude of ideas that now
exist in this material surpass any
thing seen for years, and the offerings
of the leading dealers are varied and
elegant. people seem TO have got
tired of filagree silver, rolled plate
and even solid gold OF high alloy"
said q dealer, "and the numerous ar
ticles that were formerly fashioned of
passed over for those made of tortoise
shell Formerly the chief use of tor
toise shell was for making combs aud
fans, but now combs and fans form

and beautiful product. Lorgnettes,
opera glasses, covers for books, hand.
mirror frames, backs of brushes,
manicure sets, brooches, back-bair
pins and cane and whip handles are
among the leading ideas of the day,
but beside these are scores of things
turned out of tortoise shell, some
solid, others in com bination, with
silver and gold.
"Of course real tortoise shell Is very
expensive, the value OF some things
made therefrom being way up in the
hundreds Its use. however, is'more
is more ornamental than anything
else, and the greater It's property of
being softened the greater its value.
Good, first-class tortoise shell can be
nodded or shaped almost into almost
any form If heated to 2l2o, and if
carefully handled will retain, when
cold, any form that has been given to
it when heated. Very little lie done
in this country in the way of manu-
featuring tortoise shell goods. Most
articles are imported and the majority
bear evidence of the skill aud taste of
the Chinese and Japanese artisans.
In inIsid work, fancy furniture and
various other fancy objects this is
particularly the case"

Fashion Glimpses.

Fine lace or embroidered muslin
scatfs are much used for evening
wear. Women who have an eye for
color will seize the opportunity these
sesrfs offer for touching upa somber
customs.
BOas are not confined, entirely to
fur or feathers. Those seen at the
theater are often Of white lace, stud
ded with pearls or moonstOnes, and
are tied aG the throat with long loops
of white satin Tib bon, which fall near
ly to the hem Of the dress.
The pretty little Bolero, Figaro and
Elton jackets have taken q new lease
of popularity, which is quite natural
since Is takes but small amount of
velvet TO make them, and there is
nothing which SO richly completes q

picturesque parsonage, for collars,
cuffs, sleeves and whole wraps are
thus designated. A good model of a

emerald green velvet draped, on q
brim OF Nile green cloth, which is
smoothly lined with velvet. In front
is a large bow of Persian gsloOon Sc
cured with an emerald buckle and
finished with q fancy aigrefte.
The most fashionable collar is the
one that is quite straight and is as
high as it can comfortably be worm.
To make last winters collar higher
add 3 small band of chenille or moss
