A Season Of Great Activity In h Fashi"a
World-Novelty, Variety and Originality
New and Tempting Spring RAbries-
special New York Correspondencel
The opening season gives promise OF
being one of great activity, merciless
In Its demands for novelty great varie-
" and originality. Already the shops
are OVERLOOKING with new tempting
spring fabrics, and women are clamor'
ing to know just exactly how things
are going to be made for spring.
OF courses the first gowns thought
about are the tweeds, cheviots and hne
woolens, embracing the handsome cam
els hair fabrics and English serges
which come this year much lighter in
weight, but softer and even more beau
tiful in quality and coloring than those
imported for costumes and coats last
year. The novelty in some. OF the rich
silk and wool mixtures is decidedly In
the weave, and, their coloring, infu-
enced by Louis XIV. ideas, ismore deli
cate and less pronounced, and in many
cases more trying than that OF the fab

Everybody called his mother Aunt
Judith, because She was such a lovely
old lady they simply couldn't help it.
A face sweet and beautiful in its youth
only grew more sweet as the years
made wrinkles and drew lines here and
there. The eyes, always sympathetic,
only filled with a deeper light of love
as time fled. The hair, in earlier years
a rich crown for the erect figure, only
laid itself in more caressing waves
about the face. Truly she had grown
old gracefully An invalid, she was
cared for by her eldest daughter,
Martha, who had already sent away a
lover because she would not leave her
home just now.
She did wish 10 would marry and
bring his wife home to live. That
would make all clear. Martha could
be happy. and she knew for herself she
could love anyone of the village girls
whom he might choose for a wife.

The Lime or Linden.

The lime or linden trees are native
Of Europe, the north of Asia and North
America. They are graceful, umbra.
geous trees, with deciduous, heart.
shaped, serrated leaves, and cymes
or panicks of rather small vel,
lovish flowers. The wood is light
and soft, but tough, durable,
and particularly suited to carved
work. 1t is much used by turner's and
for making pill boxes. The charcoal
made of it is often used for tooth pow.
der, for medicinal purposes, for crayon,
and for the manufacture Of gunpowder.
The ibrous inner bark, called bast, is
employed for making a coarse kind Of
robes, mats, well known as bast- mats,
and shoes much worn by the Russian
p~easantry. The trees are cut when full
of sap in spring. For bast to be plait-
ed into shoes, young stems Of about
three years old are preferred, and it is
said that two or three are required to
make a single pair of shoes. The
leaves of the lime or linden are in some
countries used as food for cattle, but
cows fed on them produce bad butter.
The flowers have an agreeable odor,
and abound in honey, much sought
after by bees. The seeds abound in a
fixed, sweet oil. The American lime,
commonly called Eastwood in America,
has larger leaves than the European
species 1t grows abundantly on the
shores of Lakes Erie and Ontario.-De-
troit Free Press.

"A Family Laxative,

Physicians are not inclined to recommend
se If medication to the laity. Yet there Is
one need which they are almost unable to
supply. We refer to the family laxative"
The family physician is able to prescribe
Tor the most complicated and obscure of
maladies and yetis often puzzled to know
inst what to give when asked for a remedy
which can be kept In the house for family
use as q laxative, that shall be effective,
Tree from danger, and not unpleasant to
take. When absent on our summer vaca-
ton we were asked by four diferentp parties,
representing as many families, what we
thought of the Syrup of Figs" Not one
word did we volunteer on the subject, and
we were somewhat surprised to find that
there was this small token of the very gem
eral use of that preparation. These parties
said they derived more benefit from it and
found 1t more pleasant to take than anything
OF the kind they had ever used. The simple
question with them was, is 1t a dangerous
compounds We informed them that its
active ingredient was O preparation OF sen.
ma, and that it was entirely free from dan
ger. With this assurance they volunteered
the information that they should continue
to keep 1t in the house. :
The therapeutical properties Of, SIENNA are
so well known that comment on this seems
unnecessary. 1t might be we'll to notice,
however, that Bartholow says 1t is "a very
safe and serviceable cathartic," and that It
Is "highly priced as a remedy for constipa-
ton" He also makes the important obser-
walton that its use sis not followed by in
testinal torpor and constipation"
The simple truth Of the matter is, W. have
altogether too few preparations which we
can recommend to our families as effective
laxatiyes. But the California Fig Syrup
company has one OF the most desirable com i,
binations for this purpose with whichwe
are familiar. The Fig Syrup company gives
to the profession the composition Of this
preparation, therefore there is no secret
about 1t; the persons who use this laxative
speak in the highestterms about IT.; and we
are pleased to notice that o large number Of
physicians are prescribing 1t.
Viewed from the narrowest and most
selfish standpoint the physician will lose
nothing by recommending such a prepare
ton as Syrup Of Figs TO his patients; while
viewed from the highest standpoint of do
ing the best possible by those who place
themselves in our care, we would say the
profession cannot do better than give their
Endorsement to such a preparation. : Amer

schoolhouse was filled with the boys
and girls Of the town, February 18th
was as great a holiday as could be
made Of it with school in session, and
somebody had n party, or some one got
up Il ride, or there was a grand pop
corn frolic. In fact, there was always
something going on that day, if all
other days in the year should be dry as
dust, though that could never be the
case with forty girls and boys to make
them lively. The excuse for this extra
fun on the 14th was that it was 10 Jen-
niDgs' birthday, and they must celebrate
it; and when any Of the parents tried to
demonstrate the ready argument was
that they didn't celebrate other birth
days, because nobody was ever born on
a day they could celebrate, and with
such a good reason what could be said
further? All the girls sent him valen-
tines, and all the boys wished they
could change places for just that one
day.. As he grew older the custom re-
mained the same, for he was, and had
always been, a great ~favorite in the
town. The mail bag which came in on
the stage that5night fairly bulged with
the number OF missives directed to J.J.
Jennings. To be sure some of the girls
had married and left the town, but all
who remained kept up the custom.
Everybody called him 10, and as he
came back year after year seemingly
unchanged il his love for the old home,
and just as cordial with all the old
friends, they decided that travel could
never make him other than the kind
hearted friend he had ever been.
Always impartial in his treatment of
the young ladies Of the place, he took
