lie apart from other women. b immense
place was full of women more or less well
known to the reading public, and a consul
tation would show just who this or that
lady was.
There was Isabel Mallon, "Bab," whose
sprightly letters rob fashion of its dizziness
and adorn it more than dressmakers can.
She wore a black velvet gown, picked"
out with some fine jet trimming and lace.
Next to her was Mrs. Haryot Holt Cahoon,
with her earnest face and graceful form.
She wore very dark blue silk, made in the
umbrella form at the bottom and with the
waist draped somewhat in surplice style.
The sleeves were modified balloon.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox wore on the open
ing night an empire frocko cheney silk in
soft gray with pink flowers. 70 throw over
her when it was chilly, she had a superb
black velvet cloak lined with iridescent
silk and bordered with bhck fox fur. In
the booth with her chat of music and po-
etry) was Mrs. josephine Gro and Mrs.
Lille Seigfried. Mrs. Seigfried wore a
poppy red lace dress over satin of the same
shade. The waist was draped very full
with the lace, and at the neck, which was
high, she had adiamond star which emitted
red flashes.
A few Of the ladies wore low waists. The
1880 and empire styles prevailed, with more
or less modification, but there were among
the ladies a few independent spirits who
adopted the style most becoming without
asking what date or period it belonged to.
And they were the prettiest wonen there.
One of them was Mrs. John A. Cockerill,
who was admired for her beauty in st.
Louis before the st. Louis folks unwilling
ly lent her to New York. She was at the
head Of the flower booth, which was i'm
mense and filed with American beauties,
both flowers and girls. Mrs. Cockerill wore
a white canton Grape, with duchess lace
around the bottom and draped across the
bust and down to the bottom of her trim
waist. The sleeves were made Of the same
lace, and it waG fastened in half a dozen
places by diamond ornaments. Her harris
golden, andin It's curls was set a handsome
diamond ornament. She wore no color ex-
cept the bunch Of red roses at her waist,
and she was the center of attraction in her
simple but elegant gown.

You may say, i do not fear the grip. But
do you not fear the terrible things which grip
may bring? especially pneumonia, which
may come almost IN a moment and
cause your death within a day? More people
die suddenly from pneumonia than from any
other known complaint, Why? Because it

In view of these solemn facts, what shall

by dosing with quinine, but by Strengthening

Charters.
Five or more persons may organize q

from the Comptroller of the Currency.
Banks may be organized with a mini
mum capital of $4,000 in places of less
than 5000 inhabitants, 500, 900 where the
population does not exceed $4,000, and
with 100000 capital in all larger places.
Banks must own United States bonds
equal to one-fourth of their capital stock,
II the capital does not exceed Sl50,000,
and in case it does must own not less

ORIGIN of the Violin.

The violin is said to be the modern
form of the viola da braccio, a small vol
supported on the arm. The violin made
It's appearance first about the year 1850, in
the north of Italy. 1t differed from the
true VOL in having the back as we'll as
the front arched, in the number of
strings, and in various technical points.
Earlier than the viol were the troUbadors'
instruments-small bowed instruments
known variously as geiges, crowds. re-
becks and tidels. They were rested on
the shoulder and played with deeply
curved bows, and were much smaller
than the modern violin.
