the BEST
SPRING MEDICINE

Is SIMMONS LIVER REGULATOR-don't
forget to take it. The Liver gets sluggish
during the Winter, just like all nature,
and the system becomes choked up by
the accumulated waste, which brings on
Malaria, Fever and Ague and Rheuma-
tism. You want to wake up your Liver
now, but be sure you take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR to do it. 1t also
regulates the Liver keeps it properly at
work, when your system will be free from
poison and the whole body invigorated.
You get THE BEST BLOOD when
your system is in All condition, and that
will only be when the Liver is kept active.
Try Liver Remedy once and note the
difference. But take only SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR-it is SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR which makes the
difference. Take it in powder or in liquid
already prepared, or make a tea of the
powder; but take SIMMONS LIVER REGU-
LATOR. You'll find the RED Z on every
package. Look for it.

WfHHr sAE BUYS

The laundrees will be gladdened by the
news that the stiffest of white skirts are
again to be worn to simulate the ffou-
frou Of the silk petticoat, which, with the
advent of summer. will be put aside ana
the fresh crisp white ones worn in their
stead
Their stiffness is about their only deco
ration, for a lace-betrimmed petticoat is
quite de trop for street wear, and no one
with any pretense to good form would
think of wearing one.
Made of the finest cambria, with
triple set of hemstitched ruff1eS set in to-
gether at the foot, constitutes their beau
ty. They do much, too, to give the skirt
of the gown the correct swing, almost as
if hoops are worn. When fair one lifts
her silk-lined gown the bewildering ex-
pense of snowy linen is most refreshing.
Nor does the f1uttery, ruffiy effect end
here. 1t is carried to the shoulders in
the cape or shoulder decoration, as we'll
as in the massive neck arrangements so
much worn. A smart cape of chameleon
velvet in shades of apple green and rose
color is laid in full ruffies on pointed
yoke of the velvet, which is overlaid by
coarse patterned gray-tinted lace in
handsome design.
The yoke curves into a deep collar, set
ting high up about the ears and edged
thickly with black ostrich tips The cape
has a lining of crisp white satin. With
this cape is worn a jaunty little capote
or green velvet, the Dflm pressed IN ana
out in sharp curves the indentatfonS
filled with violets. A soft crown of gray
lace and bunch of glossy black feathers
at one side are its finish.
Many of the capes are almost outre in
their combinations. For instance, one l
saw recently had a body of heavy white
satin, all sprigged over with thistles in
very natural tones of color. There-was a
heavy border of lace and choux of violet
velvet and a drapery of lace about the
shoulders, with long scarf ends to tie in
a bow at the front. The lining was no
less gay than the outside, being compos-
ed of mauve satin, all embroidered in

ONE OF THESE MAY BE PRESIDENT.

publican parties, will be quite as excit-
ing. Several populites have the presi-
dental bee buzzing in their bonnets at a
terrific rate and when anything like that
happens to a member of that party it
means oceans of excitement.
The people who live in the large cities
and the fair-sized towns of the country
are unable to appreciate the fervor of
politics in a populist center. A populist
is the hottest kind of a red-hot politician
all the time, and he is always aggressive.
He is never on the defensive. but jumps
into battle at the drop of the hat. He has
little to lose and everything to gain, so
die is never timid.
Vote in 1899.
! The populist vote in the last presiden-
tial campaign, when Gen. James B. Wea
yer of Iowa headed the ticket, was l.,
O41 OPS. In that election Grover Cleve-
land got 5.556.91S votes and Benjamin
Harrison SIG 0S votes. Now the popu-
lists claim that they have a voting
strength throughout the nation of 4,000,-
600 votes. OF course this estimate can be
taken with several large grains of salt,
but If it were exaggerated only by many
hundreds of thousands 1t would come
close to being a winner
The sober populists, however, do not
expect the millennium this year but they
do say that when all the votes have been
counted up the people who have been in
the habit of poking fun at them will be
deeply surprised at their strength.
In 1892 Weaver carried Colorado by
nearly $4,000 votes, Idaho by 1000 votes,
Kansas by 5000 votes Nevada by 1900
votes and North Dakota by 1S1 votes.
Tn the electoral college he had % votes.
This year, in addition to the same states,
the populists count upon carrying Ne
braska, with it's electoral votes; Ore
gon, with it's electoral votes; South Da-
kota, with it's 4 electoral votes and some

THE SOUBRETTE CYCLIST

so closely does her costume hug the form
from the tips of her little toes to the
mannsh collar about her neck
More than that. There were only few
cyclers who had the courage last year
to ride without legglngs or CATERS, al
though their more venturesome sisters in
Paris had been doing that very thing for
two seasons or more. But the gaiter or
leggings is doomed in 1895. OF course
many women will wear them, but not
those who are considered to be authori-
ties on the subject of bicycle dress. 1t
has been discovered that the high gaiter
carries too much warmth with it; that 1t
impedes the free use of the leg, that 1t
binders circulation and that it is quite
unnecessary, anyway, but more particu-
larly that it is no longer in fashion Con-
sequently it is doomed.
1t will require more courage than most
women foresee for them to be truly fash
ionable in bicycle dress at one leap. They
will have to grow up to 1t, and wait FOR
other women to lead the way. The aver
age girl rider in New York has the latter
accommodation thrust upon her all the
time and without the asking, either. The
large colony of soubrettes and the gay
young women employed by the vaudeville
theaters are not bit bashful about lead
ing the way in the matter of fashion,
particularly when that fashion gives
them a liberal chance to show off their
charms.
One young woman has taken time by the
forelock with a vengeance and when she
rides through the park the horses almost
stop to look at her, and the mounted po-
licemen are kept guessing as to their au-
thority about suppressing her and her
strange costume. This young woman is
in the first row of amazons in a spec
tacular show at a Broadway theater, and
is professionally inclined to the gorgeous
In dress.
She rides a bicycle given her by gild-
ed admirer which cost between $500 and
$500, most of the money being spent on
silver Communications. The handle bar
Is Of solid silver. beautifully chased, and
sections of the frame are covered with
silver bands. The lamp is of solid silver,
studded at the sides with jeweled glass.
The saddle is of moleskins, and, as 1t
wears quickly, it is recovered every three
or four weeks.
: This girl wears knickerbockers of gray
corduroy, and they could not fit the fig
ure any closer. Another striking feature
of her costume is an immense cape of
purple velvet edged with broad band of
white lace This cape is tremendously
wide, and of itself would rlvet attention
in any gathering. She has bright yell
low hair, and the color seems genuine,
Birmingham state herald. (Birmingham, Ala.) 1895-1897, 1896-03-22

and purple Tam O'Shanter hat empha-
sizes the hue. Golf stockings of the loud-
est plaids, with never a sign of leggings
or CATERS, and low shoes complete the
outfit. 1t might be regarded as a COM
mon, everyday kind of costume in Paris,
but in New York 1t holds the populace
spellbound. She uses low handle bars
and rides in the most approved scorching
way with head and shoulders bent low
over the front wheel.
A whole army of theatrical cyclers can
be counted upon to duplicate or exceed
this eXtravagant costume before the
warm season is very far advanced, but
the rank and file of feminine riders will
not approach it by many degrees.
The Moderate Costumes.
Most women trust to their dressmakers
for the bicycle style, and the newest cos
tunes exhibited by the fashionable mod
istes give a fair idea of what will gen
orally be worn during the spring and
summer. One costume shown Is in drab
covert coat CLOTH made with wide knick-
erbockers falling straight down and made
to resemble skirt by the addition of an
apron in 'front.' which conceals the trous-
er shape in front. The apron is trimmed
with tabs of yellow leather and buttons
made of leather braid, and the kmcker-
bockers have bands of stitched yellow
leather round the bottom. They are very
tight in front and over the hips and there
is no fullness over the saddle. The jack
ct is a short basque. rounded in front
and fitting in the back, and buttons in
front with five tabs of yellow leather,
diminishing in size from top to bottom.
1t has four godets behind and two at
the sides. The collar and lappets are
faced with stitched leather. The sleeves
rather wide at the top and stitched at
the bottom, are also stitched with two
leather buttons at the wrist. The OPEN
ing of the jacket at the neck shows an
a
A Jersey should be worn with this cos
tune, which is the latest thing in cycling
dress and can be made of any kind of
material or any color.

KN|CKERBOCKERS GALORE
Boomers Too Tame for the
1896 CycIer.
NEWEST SPRING COSTUME
All Partake of the Progression in Dress Re-
form, but Royalty Sticks Loyalty to
Skirts When Wheeling.

New York, March 2O-If many worthy
people were shocked last year by the
boomers and knickerbockers and short
skirts worn by the woman cycler. they
had better prepare for the worst this
year. The advance guard of the spring
riders have been out in all the glory of
their new costumes, and it does not re-
quire an experienced eye to discern a
vast difference between the modes of
1896 and 1895.
1t is all in the direction of progression,
too-that is, progression as measured
from the standpoint of the dress reform
er. Women who wore long skirts last
year wear short skirts with boomers I'M
derneath this year. The 1896 girl who
wore short skirts wears boomers now.
The bloomerite of 1895 is a full-f1edged
knickerbocker girl this spring, and the
knickerbocker miss of year ago seems
almost to be dressed in tights this year,
Birmingham state herald. (Birmingham, Ala.) 1895-1897, 1896-03-22
With Zouaye Knockers.

Another costume, although less novel,
is extensively worn. 1t is made with
zouave Knockers, very full, and plaits at
the waist. The material generally used
is white and drab cheviot, with blue
pattern of small check. The Jacket Is
rather longer than that of the costume
already described, and resembles dress
body without whaebone. The front is
trimmed with a double plat of the same
material and three fiat gold buttons, and
Is loose. The waistband Is of the same
material, with a gold button. The sleeves
are moderate in size and have flat plaits.
They are smaller above the elbow, but
not very tight, so that the hand can cas-
lily pass through the Wristbands.
Although royalty has taken most ex-
tensively to the bicycle, few of tho wo-
men riders wear what Is called rational
dress They cling to skirts, and the skirts
are scarcely whit shorter than those
used in ordinary wear. This is clearly
shown by the accompanying picture,
drawn from photograph taken In front
of the palace of the king of Denmark at
Copenhagen. Two of the daughters of
the Prince of Wales are in the group
and other princesses, big and little. But
there is no sign of divided skirt, boomer
or knickerbocker anywhere, which goes
to show that there is plenty of work still
to be done by thu angels of dress reform.
