will be seen by the above programme,
this session will be of special interest,
as Imany, if not all, of the speakers are
well and favorably known in this COM
munity.
Few people know that all plants con-
tain digestive principles. They cannot
absorb their food until it is oigested any
more than animals can. The Mount
Lebanon Shakers have learned the art of
extracting and utilizing these digestive
principles. and it is for this reason that
their Shaker Digestive Cordial is meeting
with such phenomenal success in the
treatment of dyspepsia. The Shaker
Digestive Cordial not only contains food
already digested, but it alec contains
digestive principles which aid the diges-
ton of other foods that ray be eaten with
it. AsingIe 10 cent sample bottle will be
sufficient to demonrrrate its value, and we
suggest that every suffering dyspeptic
make a trial OF it.. Any druggist can
supply it.

Paris, Feb. 20.-The weather was so
much milder On Sunday that 1 had great
treat-a peep at the elaborate waists Of the
church gowns. Jackets were uncomfort-
aide buttoned closely, and nearly all l saw
back. Everybody seemed to appreciate a
springy quality in the atmosphere.

the costumes. but aside from the coats, and

noticed a brea in the Sameness on Sun
day. a great many of the skirts had mar
row panels OF another material at the left
side or III the front. There was little, if
any fuTlness at the front OF sides Of the
skirt and at the back the fullness was
plated in fan fashion. The materials,
too, are new. There isn't nearly So much
crepon to be seen. The materials that are
the most popular are the smooth, glossy
ones. Duh mOhairs Of all shades have
made their appearance, and fashionable
couturcr the other day told me that mohair
would undoubtedly be the popular material
or the spring gowns.
The larger houses are not yet showing
their creauons-it is stin too early for
that-and the only chance one has for seeing
the newest gowns is TO call at these places

walking hat designed by Virot, and a little
three-cornered toque that is especially
becoming to round races.
In the others, however, wan looks viii
find much soIace. as their effects are soft
aud wide, and often tulle strings with a
big bow under the chin will give a fasci-
mating finish.
Crowns of almost all OF the hats are
enormously big, and are either puffed in
with novel raising at the front or left
side, or else are blocked plainly and fiat
at the top.
THIS bigness promises a delightful
sense of comfort for long time unknown
with headgear.
The fiercest wind may now blow, but
there is no longer the uneasy anguish
that accompanied the wearing of tho
foolish little billyCocK crowns of a year
ago. The roof of your head now very
early reaches the roof of your new
chapeau, the brim is but little above
the ears; and besides the feeling Of security
this gives you have the blissfuI conscious
ness that your looks are usually much inn

Yesterday pdu pi New 1ofk smart

were seen some OF the CONNECTIONS that

the gown on its journey. An elegant
tailor-made gown / saw at church was
made OF soft light gray camels' hair.
The skirt was a fall godet with a mar
row panel OF deep moire velvet at the
left side.
The panel and the bottom OF the skirt
was braided simply in small rows of black
silk passementerie. The waist was jacket
in effect, opening at the front over
white satin vest. The revers, which
were rather narrow, came to a point at
the bottom OF the short full basque.
They were of the mouse velvet edged
with the braid. Down each seam OF the
jacket were rows of the braid. The
turn-back cuffs Of velvet on the full
coat sleeves were also bordered with the
braid, and the velvet lappets that stood
out straight on each side OF the tail
satin collar had a finish of the braid.
Another dress I saw was far more
chic and decidedly original. The skirt
was OF claret crepon, with the godcts at
the back. The waist OF white broad
cloth was almost severe in its simplicity,
fastening at one side. There were no
darts, and the slight fullncss was
plated In at the bottom OF the slightly

The collar was high and straight,
