Decorative Figures for Ornamental Sofa
A sofa cushion that is sufficiently
decorative to receive applause from
the most fastidious is made Of orange
red art sheeting, and curiously covered
with writhing coil of large Japanese
dragons. The creatures are worked in
long and short stitch, done with coarse
silk in shades of gray ranging from
pearl white to black. Occasional
stitches worked in with metal thread
give an indication of glittering scales.
The figures are outlined with two rows
Of gold thread. The edge Of the pillow

giles are dotted.
Another sofa pillow that would be
charmingly suitable for certain styles
of rooms is made Of thick satin of the
color called Egyptian red. The pattern
drawn upon the service is an imitation
of the decoration upon Egyptian pot
terry, being mostly human figures
drawn in profile and some few symbolic
cal FORMS The pattern is not worked
in any way, but the satin ground is en-
tirely covered with darning in black
silk. Large reversed points or half
diamonds are set together and left bare
like the figures all around the edge of
the cushion, which has no other finish
except n silk cord covering the seams.
The figures, which are from three to
five inches high, are arranged as il
crossing the cushion professionally.

does not prevent CLEAN of the satin

Importance Of Healthy Blood.

Every drop Of blood that circulates through
the veins eventually becomes solid particle
OF the body. Flesh, bone and muscle are
merely solidi6ed blood, and upon the quality
OF the blood depends the condition of the
whole physical system. Unless the liquid ma
terial by which the human substance is re-
newed and sustained is pure and nutritious, il
is impossible that the body can be healthy
and strong. One OF the most important prop
critics OF Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is that OF
improving the condition of the vital fluid
when infected or impoverished. Acting d.
rectly and powerfully upon the stomach, in
which the manufacture of the blood is com
menced. and upon the liver which secretes a
fluid ne xt in importance to the stream Of life
itself, this powerful vegetable tonic and depu-
rent has an immense indirect influence upon
the circulation. Hence the ex raordi oary
cures wrought by the Bitters in cases OF pen-
erai debility, malarious fevers, rheumatism.
