VARIOUS NOTES.
Dressing Gowns, Embroidered Stocking
and Wide Neckbantis.

Among tho now spring novelties are
many special designs for dressing gowns.
1t is rather difficult at the present time to
draw a line between n glorified dressing
gown and tea gown and define where
ono ends and the other begins, so elabo-
rate and handsome are some of the former
now being shown.
No wire is used in skirts by good dress
makers or well dressed women. 1t is bet
ter to have no stiffness Mt all than the an
Rularity that wire affords. Skirts in Paris
are less flaring than those worn here, the
haircloth extending not more than 12 inch
cs above the hem, as a rule. Better Innings
are employed generally, however, silk or
alpaca taking the place of the cotton fab
RIGS too frequently used here.
The separate bodice fashion is an excuse
for all sorts offxpensive and fanciful cor
sages, which are all called by the name of
blouse, although one differs from another
In glory.
Openwork and embroidered hosiery arc
seen for use with slippers and low shoes,
All colors are shown, but black is always

A Remarkable Tree.

1t has been discovered, according to The
National Druggist. that the famous tree
from the bark of which quinine is obtain
cd furnishes no quinine except in malarial
regions. If a tree is planted in a malarial
district, it will produce quinine. If it is
planted in nonmalarial district it will not
produce quinine. 1t is therefore claimed
that quinine is a malarial poison, drawn
from the soil and stored up by this won
derful tree.

TO discover that there was n degree, a
possibility between what l had achiey-

was paying my homage to a star Of
lesser brilliancy than necessary. The
fact is. I have quite enough Of reason
and ideas and intellect generally when
I am at work, and We are all OF us
eternally applying some principle, and
that's philosophy. When I join the la

and my ear aereeably stimulated, not
because they are not capable OF making

Yes. I know It. He always viii be.
Look at the persuasive tones in that
long front lock. See how he could
speak like softest butter and absolutely
gid his own words. He's a man that
has a brain in his head, underneath
that lowering lock, and he has a Won

vulgarity.

along the side. This means that l could
not hire him. Never try to turn or

The curl at the roots betokens popular
lty. and. all in all he's character.
Can't help being one with that top
