Ia Life Short or Lonps

If life is so short as some think it is, it may
be made to seem much longer and sweeter
by better care for our comforts. Minor
troubles are much magnified by neglect AMI
delay. We give too much time to hunting
up causes when we ought to deal promptly
with effects. This is much the case with pain,
which should be cured at once and cause
looked into afterwards. Miss Ida NJ. Flem-
ing, s. Carey Street, Baltimore, Nd, states
that for years she was subject to frequent at
tacks of neuralgia, and triel any number OF
remedies without avail. She was given qui-
nine. which she says affected her nervous
system. She suffered night and day during
these attacks until she tried St. Jacobs Oil,
which finally cured her.

The GarrOte.

The mode of execution by the gar
otte seems to have been originally de-
vised by the Moors and Arabs, and to
have been taken from them by the
spaniards, by whom it has been trans
mitted to the Spanish colonies in
America. In the earliest form it con-
sisted in simply placing cord round
the neck of the criminal, who was
seated on chair fixed to a post, and
then twisting the cord by means of a
stick inserted between it and the back
of the neck till strangulation was pro-
duced. Afterward brass collar was
used containing screw, which the
executioner turned till its point en-
tered the spinal marrow where it unites
with the brain, causing instant death.

ODDS AND ENDS,


a new shade OF brown is called mordore.
Violets for outdoor wear are the accepted
floral favorites.
The new belts are fully ls inches wide, and
made of jet to match the collar. Braid is
also made up into these broad belts.
Among the new gowns are those made OF
swivel silk. The skirts are made plain, being
in colors beautiful enough to need no addi-
ton.
Sable has become the rage In Paris, and
is used upon goods from the thickest to the
thinnest material, including street dresses
and house gowns.
Jet is certainly taking first r5-ce among
the new trimmings, and will be used in great
profusion on hats and dresses alike Even
the laces are elaborately jetted.
Little girls from two to eight years OF age
now wear gingham sunbonnets trimmed In
lace, and made out Of the same material as
the quaint little dresses.
One Of the prettiest trimmings for light
summer goods is lace beading in white or
black, with drawn ribbon or velvet to corrs-
spond in color with the goods.
The tiny chameleons that have helped to
30 amuse the ladies for the past few months,
are still much sought after. The courts
decided they were not domestic animal,
and so could not be interfered with by the
Bergh society.
The beautiful zouave jackets still Lhold
their own, and never seem quite to lose
their prestige, and the new and varied shapes
in which they are seen combine the prettiest
points Of both new and old, with nerfect fit
and dainty finish.
The new bonnets are dainty little spring
beauties Of fine straw, and beautiful flowers,
mounted with two dogs ear bows of black
or colored velvet to match the costume.
Black violets with green foliage, white violets
and mignonettes are the fnvorite dowars
for trimming.
The silver, steel tortoise shell and ribbon
band tiaras, with pert little ornaments and
bows in front, which have adorned the heads
of girls oil winter, have made way for lace.
A twist of cream or white lace binds the
wire round which forms the foundation Of
the ornament, and two beautiful lace butter
flies take the place of the bow.
The reigning fad for the present year
is fencing. Any woman who poses as being
ultra fashionable must now at least try
her hand at the manly art To do this she
must begin by joining some fashionable
fencing club. Then she must purchase several
sets of foils and all the accessories, but, chief
of all important things, she must own q
fetching costume, in which she can be photo
graphed. Then time, diplomacy, an oc-
casional lesson in fencing, and generous
distribution among her friends Of her photo
graphs in fencing costume, soon give her
the wished for reputation as fencer.

HINTS FOR THE BOCDOIR.

When lady finds on consulting the mirror
that she is worn, wrinkled and haggard look
ing, let her first take hot water and pure
soap and thoroughly wash her face and neck,
then rub the skin hard with Turkish towel
until it is oil aglow, then rub cold cream care
fully into all the pores, holding the skin
smooth and rubbing out the wrinkles. After
this thorough rubbing, take heavy Turkish
towel, dip it in water as hot as can possibly
be borne to wiring the towel out Unfold
quickly and hold close to the face, touching, il
not too hot. Repeat this eight or nine times
until tho face and neck are thoroughly
steamed. Then lie down and 20 to sleep for
the night, end guarantee that one nights
work like this will make vast improvement
and five nights OF the same treatment will
make one look ten years Younger.
