ABOUT RoYAL CROWNS.

William the Conqueror, before the
conquest Of England, wore only the cap
Of a French duke, but after that event
added a coronet with points.
The marquis crown bears four
strawberry leaves and four pearls. T..
France the strawberry leaves are &c
placed by leaves of parsley wrought in
gold.
The oldest crown preserved among
the royal regalia of Great Britain rs
that which was worn by Charles H.,
being made for him at his coronation
in 16GO.
The crosses on the English royal
crown were introduced by Richard III
during his short and turbulent reie T. {;
the arches of the diadem were added Nv
Henry VII. in 1s45.
The mural crown, d Roman honor,
was of gold, decorated with battle
ments. 1t was given to the soldier who,
during the storming of q city, first
mounted the enemy's walls.
The nephews and nieces of the Eng
iish sovereign are entitled to wear
strawberry leaves in their crowns in
-tead of the heurs-de-lis appropriated
tn the use of princes and princesses.
The crown of Rudolph H., chiefly re-
I0arl:nble for the lavishness with which
t is adorned with uncut diamonds and
other jewels. is preserved in the i'm
perlal treasure house at Vienna

FADs FOR FAIR WOMEN.


Monogram fans for bridesmaids are
pretty fashion revived recently. The
letters are traced in diamonds or paint
ed in tiny forget-me-nots on the out
side rib, according to the wealth of the
giver. 49,
Bagpipes are said to be fast gaining
popularity among Scotch ladies, who
manage them very successfully, and in
struments highly ornamented and
somewhat softened in sound are made
In great numbers for their use.
Narrow velvet ribbon is very much
used this season, and endless loops Of
black or white are combined with lace
or chiffon in pretty boas for the neck.
Vests of white silk or mousseline de
soie are trimmed crosswise with some
of the baby ribbon either in black or
colors.
Braiding is one of the specialties of
dress trimmings this season, and there
are all sorts and all kinds of braid in
various colors and widths, with plain
and waved edges, mixed with gold
thread. Military braids are also used,
and silk cord forms the clover pattern
on thin, gauzy materials used for trim
ming.

NATURAL FAT.
Getting Fat is Only a Question
OF Eating Proper Food.


Thin people who want to get fat
should eat proper food and digest it.
That is the only natural way.
The trouble with most thin people
is that they suffer from indigestion.
They don't digest their food. They
don't get enough nourishment. They
are slowly being starved. They are
poisoned by the products Of fermented
and putrid food.
Shaker Digestive Cordial, a gentle,
natural, vegetable digestive, attacks
the food in your stomach naturally. Tt
makes thin dyspeptics fat. It makes
poisonous blood pure. 1T tones up and
cures the stomach.
Nothing will cure indigestion like
Shaker Digestive Cordial, because
nothing else goes so naturally about
it.
This is why it has been so successful
in relieving nausea, vomiting, dizzi-
ness, weakness, bad taste, fever, fiatu-
. lence, constipation, loss of appetite,
headache, neuralgia, rheumatism, etc,
by curing the disorder which causes
the symptoms.
A few doses viii prove its value, but
you won't get fat on one bottle
All druggists. Ten cents for a trial
bottle.
Write for book on Food and Fat to
The Shakers, 80 Reade Street, New
York.

Treasurer T. p. Jerman has received
from citizens of Beaufort county,
through Mr.. Charles f. Warren, Of
Washington, $6.O5 for the Winchester
monument fund. This, with contribu-
lions formerly sent for this purpose,
makes 5000 contributed by the citi-
zens of Beaufort county for this wor-
thy purpose. Other counties have also
contributed, but not so literally.
In Stonewall Cemetery, Winchester,
Va, several hundred North Carolinians
lie buried, with nothing but piece Of
board to mark their last resting place.
Other States are erecting monuments
to their dead in this beautiful ceme-
terry, and it is desired to place a gram
lite headstone at the grave of every
North Carolinian there buried. These
memorials will cost $3.50 piece.
