another their heads would disappear
into the sticky, binding mass, as they
hshed with their teeth for the shining
Prizes at the bottom.
Successful or otherwise, after their
powers were exhausted, they would
suddenly pull out their heads, reeking

A Des Moines woman who has been
troubled with frequent colds, concluded
to try an old remedy in a new way, and
accordingly took tablespoonful flour
times the usual dose) of Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy just before going to bed.

the remedy Zone teaspoonful at a time)
and at night again took tablespoonful
before going to bed, and on the following
morning awoke free from all symptoms
of the cold. Since then she has, on sew

Likeness of English and Americans.

AS respects character, says Edward
NJ Chapman in the February Century.
the British and American publics are
strikingly as one. The tone of popular
sentiment Is much the same. The atti-
tude toward questions of general human
interest Is often identical. Political
Ideas are, at bottom, not SO unlike as
superficial observers fancy. Party spirit
manifests itself in very similar fashion.
Both are sensitive. though in slightly
varying degrees, to the same appeals.
me same national spirit animates both
showing itself In quite characteristic
fashion when the jealousy of one ia
aroused against the other. Indeed. IL
is In their mutual rivalries and jealous
les that their spiritual kinship is often
most manifest. Their diversity is super
ncial and provincial; their unity funda-
mental and racial. The American
who can divest himself of provincial
ism In England, and the Englishman
VINO can lay aside his insularity in
America, each finds himself at home.

The Ouestion Of Hip sleexo..

The agitating question Is again be-
ing discussed regarding the possible
fate of the full sleeves that have so
long been the rage. 1t is constantly
feared by those who admire these pic
turesque accessories that they will be
abandoned altogether when once they
are really frowned upon by fashion, the
excess and exaggeration of this pretty
and most comfortable style naturally
tending to a reaction-and a radical
change. We think that there is not q
woman living who desires to see the re-
vival OF the skin-tight, torturing sleeves
of other days. They were not dressy,
neither were they improving, or becom-
ing 10 either stout or slender women.
The newest creations are happy medl-
ums in outline and style, and ifonly this
very desirable state of things sleeve
wards would remain in vogue for years
we think no reasonable woman would
ever wish for a change. 1t is to be
hoped that leading modistes will en-
deavor to keep within the limits of good
taste and good sense and that they will
strongly urge their patrons to refuse
both the old style sleeves and the hide
GUS balloon shapes, and to elect for
what is best. prettiest and most COM
Portable, in spite Of the fats from official
sources or flying rumors from nowhere.
