KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products TO
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
IN the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
stiye; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
Il has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

White SILK Blouse.

A white silk blouse was made of a
straight breadth of the silk, using the
width for the length of the blouse,
from throat to waist line. The upper
edge was pinked, and just below the
pinking shlr was run on the outer
side for drawing string. The lower
edge was hemmed and a drawing
string run through the hem. Arm
holes were cut in the breadth and full
shirt sleeves set in. The bottoms of
these sleeves were pinked, like the up
per edge of the blouse, and drawn to the
wrists, as the former to the throat,
by white baby ribbon that tied in
many looped bows. This blouse was
worn by a young girl, was quite low
at the throat, and was closed at the
back, but another of dotted Swiss,
worn with a skirt of the same by
young woman, was closed in front,
and a prettier height at the throat,
the ruffie just shadowing the nape of
the neck. Instead of the pinking, the
throat and wrists were finished with
fine white lace, and the drawing rib
bon was violet. The blouse was drawn
to fit the waist, the skirt placed over
it, and violet silk belt was fastened
by fancy safety pin of silver.

Wool Fabrics.

Besides the linen duck, piqa<s and
similar fashionable materials. the
many sheer wool ia brics used for tailor
costumes are uncoumonly elegant in
tone and texture this season, and il
artistically cut. which is essential, they
are the perfection of summer wear.
Emphasis must be given by repetition
to what has been said before, that
there is no summer street gown in
which a woman looks better dressed
than tailor co,tume of this descrip
tion-pIain, satin-striped. silk-dOtted,
barred, bordernd, or whatever style
best suits hei individually adding
grace to rounded form and roundness
to slender one, as many dresS- and
effective additions in the way of bre-
telles, revers, shoulder capes, sleeve
putfs, etc, are now made to the bodices
of these gowns, which at first were toe
severe and unadorned to prove becom-
ing to all figures.

White Braids.

Some of the most effective cotton
gowns owe much to the use of white
braid. This is employed in variou,
widths and put on in a wonderful
variety of ways A blue and white
striped cotton had a wide band of the
stripes around the skirt some distance
from the foot. The stripes, which
were narrow and alternating. ran ur
and down in the skirt and horizon ally
in the band Three rows of narrow
white braid, stitched close together,
zigzaged the hand from edge to edge.
The belt and the bodice trimmingr
were made in the same way.

Notes of the Modes


Mrs Mackay. the wife of the Silver
hlng has a very fine collection of
precious stones, which are kept in
cases of remarkable beauty. One of
these, two feet square, is of solid silver.
and holds the ornaments she wears
and keeps for ordinary use. The other
IS OF gold and three-quarters of a
loot square. The top is entirely in
crusted and thicklv studded with
precious stones, some of which are
over carat in weight. This gold box
is tufted with royal purple velvet.
There are three trays which are
fastened in with a patent spring, of
which Mrs. MaclIay alone holds the
secret. When the tiny gold kew is
turned to open the box an alarm is
started from small alarm cloct fitted
into the inside, and thus every precau-
ton is taken to guard the enormous
value of the contents When the
Princess Colonna, Mrs. Mackay's
daughter, was married she received
from her mother a jewel case exactly
like the one described above.

Notes of the Modes.

Dainty and most becoming dresses
both for day and evening wear, are OF
tam boured organdies and fowered
Swiss muslins
Pretty clusters of horse-chestnut
blossoms appear upon ecru-colored
straw hats of nutmeg" braid, trimmed
with russell brown velvet ribbon.
The dress parasols of the season are
like small tents, and although in most
cases made of tulle, lace or net, Their
large size and ugly handles suggest
the utilities rather than the orna,
ments of dress.
A collarette that is coming forward
in cotton gowns, and will be repeated
in wool later on, is a three-quarter
circle, shaped to fit smoothly around
the shoulders, and folded to points in
front. 1t is effective in the stiff linen
and in the heavy cotton goods.
Cambria gowns should have the
waist lining made of the same material
as the outside, when lined at all. The
reason will be manifest if break or
tear ocurs. This is particularly de.
sirable for little girls summer dresses,
which are liable to all sorts of acci
dents
A pretty apron of white Swiss, in
stead of having one broad ribbon
drawn through the top hem as belt
had five rows of stitching and through
the six cases so formed baby" ribbon
was drawn. The rows passed around
the waist and fastened beneath . big,
fluffy rosette on the left side Another
rosette trimmed the little shirreo
pocket.

Simple and dainty costumes are ar
ranged by draping white waist with
colored bretelles like the skirt, as q
skirt of green and white, and bretelle,
ot the same running over white shirt
waist. The bretelles were wide al
the shoulder, falling far down over
the arm, and were scalloped in white
to correspond with scalloped band
near the foot of the skirt. Other suits
are made of organdy or chambray in
solid pink, blue or buff, with plain
skirts and tiny, sleeveless jackets over
white waists; one buff lawn was
scalloped in scarlet and the white
blouse was embroidered to match.

What Chemists Can Do.

Chemists turn scrap iron into ink,
old bones into lucifer matches, the
shavings of the blacksmith shop into
Prussian blue, fusel oil into oil of ap-
pies and pears, the DRAWINGS Of COW
houses into fashionable perfumery,
beggars' rags into new pilot coats,
cesspool filth into ammonia, and tar
waste into aniline dyes and saccha-
rine. In Paris they first utilize rats
to clear the flesh from the bones of
carcasses, then kill the rats, use up
their fur for trimmings. their skin for
gloves, their thigh bones for tooth
picks and their tendons and bones for
gelatine wrappers.
