J ty that is their chief charm under Il load of
expensive materials that they have neither
the years nor experience TO carry off well.
China silks, embroidered india null, airy

vet ribbons and light lace. If jewels are
| worn, they should be of the simplest. The
most fastidious taste dispenses with them
entirely until the ingenue stage is passed.
1t is also much the best form to have the
corsage cut only half low. An extremely
pretty gown worn by girl of II at a late
wedding reception was made of plain white
silk muslin, with full waist gathered into
belt, the neck being cut down but two
inches all around and shirred with a little
heading. The pulled sleeves reached to the
elbow, and few sprays of smilaX were the
only adjournment. This unusually simple
attire gave the young girl, who although
pretty, was rather heavy, delicacy and re-
tinement of appearance which more elab-
crate toilet, such as she will have to wear
in two or three years, would have put out
of the question.
The gown of which a sketch is given is
not so plain as the one just mentioned, but
is nevertheless simple and appropriate
enough for the average young girl. IL is of
embroidered silk muslin, pale green in tint,
made over a silk lining of the same color
The full muslin skirt hangs over a bell skirt
of the silk, around the bottom of which are
set moss green velvet rosettes at regular in
tervals. The full bodice is gathered in at
the waist under belt trimmed with velvet
rOsetteS. The neck is cut square and is sur
rounded by "A shirred rutfie of the muslin
The sleeves, which extend almost to the ell
bow, are very full, and over the upper half
velvet straps are tackled, ending in bows

1t Occurs When n Girl Gets Her First

The first evening dress of young girl is
very important thing, at least to her, and
should be chosen carefully with an eye TO
setting off her youthful freshness and the
avoidance of an air of maturity. 1t is a

SERIOUSLY INJURED.


James Reynolds Found Unconscious In
 Pool of Blood.
 About o'clock today the groans of someone injured attracted the attention of one of the clerks in Gaylord's store on South Main street. Going to the rear. lying in a pool of blood. lay James Reynolds. He was picked up and placed on Bergin's stretcher and Doctors Brown and McAvoy summoned. They made an examination and found that there were several bruises on the left side of the body and that the base of the skull was frac- tured. The injured man was carried into the office of the livery stable. where Father Downey administered the last sacraments. He was unconscious when he was picked up and was bleeding from the ears and nose.
 Many theories as to how Reynolds came to meet with the accident were offered. Reynolds was a witness against Michael Ryan this morning in the police court, and was instrumental in getting Ryan six months in jail. Ryan secured a bondsman and is now at liberty. Reynolds roomed in Holohan's block with his brother, both boarding with Mrs Ryan. Their room was entered from the first story hall, and an open window looked out over the ST ot where he was found. The first supposi- ton was that Ryan and Reynolds had renewed the quarrel or last nlgnt ana that Ryan was showed through the window. | The furniture in the room is not disar- ranged. however, and wash stand stands in front or the window. Reynolds claimed on the stand this morning that Ryan was Nollie Maguire and had threatened to kill him. Ryan is an old man, however, and could scarcely get the best of Reynolds unless the latter was drunk or he was taken unawares. He was seen shortly before the accident and apparently sober. There were no marks on him outside of those mentioned and the cuts he received in the fracas last night. Perhaps the more plausible story however is one told by neighbors Mrs Ryan is breaking up housekeeping. She had locked Reynolds room and he could not enter. There is another window in the hallway which is on a level with the roof of Gaylord's store. The two buildings are separated by about two feet. Reynolds got out the hall window on to the slanting roof. crawled along to his own window and in attempting to enter, lost his hold and fell. In his fall he struck a wooden shut ter which gave him the marks on his side. and the fracture of the skull could come from any sudden jar.

How to Increase Flesh-

First avoid indigestion. The quantity of food we eat matters not; it is the amount which is digested and assimi- lated. A diet of lean beef that has been finely chopped and robbed of the con- nective tissues, made into fiat cakes, lightly broiled and seasoned, and tiny piece of we'll toasted whole wheat bread, with cup of hot water, if persisted in Tor two or three months, will effect a cure. After that come back gradually to carbonaceous foods. Remember that the fats arc more easily converted into fat than the sugars and starches. and all starchy foods must be we'll cooked. Tho light lunch at noon would be decidedly better, and then take your c o'clock dinner. After dinner rest plenty of time to digest and assimilato the food

HOW TO TREAT TYPHOID FEVER.
The Digestive Apparatus should Be
 CIennscd by Frequent Irrigation.

The Digestive Apparatus should Be Cleanscd by Frequent Irrigation. Water is for many things . simple but sure remedy. Dr. Elmer Lee of Chi cago first proposed curing cholera in Germany about year ago by cleansing the stomach by constant washing out with steriliZed water. Sterilizing kills all germs in anything The same doctor now proposes this treatment for typhoid fever and on this subject says: Fears were formerly entertained by me, as they are today by some of my contemporaries, that something would be burst by running n large volume of water into the bowels of persons sick with typhoid fever. No harm has ever been done. and neither is it likely to be caused. Several hundred cases have been so deluged by mo with large quantities of water, and in no instance has the TO- suit failed to bc beneficial. The fear of doing harm may be entirely and forever dismissed.
 It is specifically stated that the tenn perature of the water used for cleansing and washing the bowels should always depend upon the temperature of tho body. If there is high fever. the water is more agreeable and useful to the pa- tient when it is cool-viz, 75 degrees but if tho patient is chilly or has q low temperature the water should be at blood heat, nearly 100 degrees. During the first week of illness tho irrigation of the bowels should take place in the morning and again in the evening of each day. After this one douche of wa ter should be given each day until con- valescence. The cooperation of the pa tient it readily accorded. The treatment takes hold of his reason, which lends both hope and help to the management of the case.
 Bathing tho body is performed at reg ular intervals. Tho bathtub may be used when the patient is strong enough to be assisted to it Where otherwise, spong- ing with cold water is very refreshing and useful to maintain strength and lower the heat of the body. As to the internal treatment, let there be no re- straint in administering water. Tortur- ing fever patients with thirst is happily being abandoned on all sides in medical practice.
 Typhoid fever is in many parts of the country. and particularly in the high and well drained hilly and mountainous regions. but too often the cause of wide spread and fatal epidemics. There should be abundant opportunity to test the ir- rigation treatment, and it seems to merit careful examination.

Funny time of year to mark down winter garments isn't 1t! Most people would mark them up, but that's not our way of doing business. But here's just the situation. We found we carried over good many Winter Garments from last season and while the styles are not quite the same as this years there's not so much dlf- ference after all except in the price, and here's what we have got to say right in nut shell.
 25 Garments in ladies and misses, were S7.5O to $l4 each. Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock, Sl.9S
 90 Garments in ladies and misses, price from $7.5O to SIP. Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock, S2.9S.
 This Is only for little while. If you can get your size you will make more money than you can any other way. but don't wait until afternoon, come in the morning. They will not go on sale until 9 o'clock.

 There is certainly a charm about Gus Williams, the delineator of German dia- feet, which few actors of the day possess. His quaint humor. legitimate and neat act Ing methods have won a name for him of which he should certainly be proud. He IS one ot the most popular and indeed tue most original actor on the American stage. being the author of all his songs and reel tatlons, which have convulsed so many au- dlences. He will be at the Jacques opera house in his musical farce comedy, April Fool. on Friday evening. supported by an excellent company of speciality artists. By all means go and see April Fool"
 "wang."
 Waterbury has received the reputation on several occasions for furnishing the coldest audiences of any any city in the state. Last night at the production of Wang there was no deviation from that rule. The applause was very limited and rather chilly and the en- cores were few and far between. The production as a whole deserved a much better reception. Albert Hart as the regent was decidedly adapted to hIs part by "loDg" odds. His witticisms and sing ing were excellent and he was, in fact, a whole show in himself Marion Sir ger. as tbe widow, was as compact a bit of jovialty as Waterbury has witnessed. She and Hart in their ludicrous love scenes are inimitable. Virginia Earle as Mataya is always welcome visitor here and her pi- quant posing and singing last night made her especially so. Charles Burrows, as colonel and Frank Casey as the lite darkey filled the fun passages with good effect. Miss Drake as Marie is scarcely fitted for her part. Her voice does not possess sufficient range. but still she sang we'll. John A Parks as the lieutenant, did we'll. The chorus was in good voice and the stage pictures and scenery were very pleas ing.
