A Novelty In Portieres.

An agreeable change in the conven-
tional portiere is to have for door that
is not constantly used set of hangings.
consisting of two side curtains and a
deep valance, the former hung upon
rods, so that they may be opened, il
need be, but which are for the most part
kept closed. These should be of some
heavy material, of which there is wide
choice, running up and down the scale
of cost. Among the more expensive
fabrics velvet or some one of the thick
plain-surfaced goods of the broadcloth
order may be satisfactorily used-Leis-
ure Hours.

bIemish where the patients nose nan
been. Mrs. Edwards grieved over the
facial Disagreement and when DR..
Tunis suggested a remedy, she imme-
diately agreed to undergo the operation.
The patient was etherized and the OPP
Grafton was begun. DR.. Tunis cut off
the end joint of the third finger of her
right hand and disarticulated the re-
naming two bones. The hand was held
in position over Mrs. Edwards face and
the homeless flesh was laid over the
damaged nose and stitched to the face.
Bandages OF crinoline, spread with
plaster Of paris, were wrapped about
the patients body, holding the arm
firmly in place. Her hand almost en-
tirely covered her face and it was nee
essary TO feed her by means of tube
inserted into the left corner of her
mouth. Occasionally the bandages were
but the hand was never al"
lowed TO change its position.
At the end OF three weeks the finger
was firmly grated to the face and Mrs.
left the hospital with a nose
hardly less perfect in form than the
original.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send His
DiscoN cry Free.
Claims To BE a Bcnefactor 10
Weaker I'd Mankind.

There is always more or less sus-
piciOn attached to anything that is Of
fered free but sometimes a man so
ove flows with generosity that he can
not rest until his discovery is known
to the world, in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has dis
covered. 1t is upon this pricipal that
resident of Kalamazoo, Mich, de-
sires TO send free to mankind 4 pre-
scription which will cure them of any
form Of nervous debility; relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertain
ty which such men are peculiarly liza
bic to and restores the organs TO nat
urai size and vigor. AS il costs moth
ing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
rervous troubles that usually attack
mCn who never stopped to realize
what might be the final result. lught
to be deeply Interested in a remedy
which will restore them to health,
strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence OF
untold misery. AS the remedy in
question was the result OF many years
research as to what combination
would be peculiarly effective in restor-
ing to men the strength they need, it
would seem that all men suffering
with any form OF nervous weakness
ought to write for such a remedy al
once. A request to II. g. Odds, Box
114S Kalamazoo, Mich, stating that You
are not sending for the prescription
out of idle curiosity, but that you wish
to make use Of the medicine by giving
it trial, will be answered promptly
and without evidence as to where in
formation came from
The prescription is sent free, and al
though some may wonder how Mr..
Odds can afford TO give away his dis
covery, there is no doubt about the
offer being genuine. Cut this out and
send to Mr.. Odds so that he may
know how you caJre to write him.

employed to control, not destroy. the
ight-mindedness so that it shall be-
come a cushion easing the burdens
which time lays upon every individual
Undue seriousness or a tendency to
dependency may be relieved, may be
overcome by the cultivation of the hu-
morous element which exists in some
form in the child, and which will help
to carry him over hard places or tighten
dark ones.
Obstinacy and fickleness are often
found together, and the former, if
worked with, not against, the grain,
can be transformed into perseverance
and aid in converting fickleness into
steadfastness. A tendency to moods,
great buoyancy and depression, call for
the exercise of the dormant power of
self-control. The child unconsciously
admires that quality, and can thus be
stimulated to its increasing exercise,
and we find an even nature produced.
A child of impulse, sympathetic, in
tense, imaginative, generally possesses
a hard vein of common sense or matter
of-factness; these qualities recognized
and wisely directed form a wholesome,
strong, well-balanced character. Il is
not necessary to multiply examples.
We know the power of love 10 change a
selfish nature into a self-Sacrificing
one, and there is hardly an attribute Of
character that may not be greatly
changed. - Elizabeth Lord Condit, in

ARMY TO BE INCREASED.

Probably Ten Full Artillery Regiments
VIII Be Needed.
A plan for the reorganization OF the
line Of the army, which has been de
manded repeatedly by the war depart
ment, it is now believed, win be pre-
scented TO congress and accepted before
adjournment. a. o.
Besides the three-battalion system,
the proposed measure will authorize an
increase in the artillery branch from
five to seven regiments. This is to be
done in order to enlarge this arm Of
the army TO meet the demands that
win be made upon It by the new ex-
tensive system of Notifications, all of
which will require new garTisons to
be supplied from the artillery.
No formal estimate has been made
by the war department showing the
exact number of men and officers re-
quired to man the new post at Sandy
Hook or any of the "a cities included
in the general scheme of oastdefenses.
Fort Hancock, Gen. Miles has said, will
call for probably a full regiment, or
az 1CaSb Iho BiSdOCA paw Va OiSJ oAAo
the defenses at Fort Monroe also will
call for large force when completed.
The establishment of a post on the
Delaware TO protect the cities Of Phil
adelphia, Wilmington and Chester will
require large part of an artillery regi-
ment and at all the southern posts
where new defenses are to take the
places of the ante-belIum forts, artil-
lerymen will be demanded to garrison
them. be-. .....
The increase of the army by two
regiments will probably be sufficient
to supply the men required in the next
zen years to equip the posts, but under
the full plan of coast defenses as now
being carried out it has been estimated
that probably ten full artillery pegt-
ments will be necessary when the great
project has been completed. l!E' b.

New Eject in Revers.

For many seasons past if gown was
made with revers, the number used was
always two.
One large reyer is regarded as very
chic. 1t is usually Of the same material
as the bodice, and is richly braided or
covered with lace.
When three revers are used they are
always graduated in size. The first
rever is the smallest, the other two act
ing as it's background.
They look best in three tints of one
color, but all sorts Of very pretty color
effects are possible with them.-Chicago

MANY BUTTERFLIES.
These Are What the Winter Girls Partie-
uIarly Like to Wear.

These Are what the Winter Girls Partic-
ularly Like to Wear.
The butterfly is in evidence every
where. On hats, ON gowns, on sleeves,
on stationery, on linen, on decorations
of all kinds. Society girls are exhib-
iting>the collections of butterflies made
or bought during the summer, and
there Us even a rumor that some of them
have a few live ones, which have been
carried back from the south.
Pressed and dried specimens are very
artistic and lovely, and there are count
less pretty ways of arranging them to
the best advantage. One Chicago girl,
lucky enough to startoollecting butter
flies early in the summer and to have
the assistance of great many people
in her search, has a row of them pinned
up on her bedroom wall. The pretty
border extends quite around the room,
the insects being arranged at wide in
tervals. and the result is very pretty,
81 one can only forget the hundreds
Of tiny things that died prematurely
to furnish it. h@
Girls who have only a few butterflies
arrange SMALLER panels or draperies,
and she who has only half q dozen or
% mounts them as decorations on q
picture frame or pins them pIuntscu-
ouLy upon the window curtains or door
draperies.
Next to the real butterflies in pop
ular favor come the delicate French inn
itations which are being placed upon
the brims Of the large velvet hats. Vel
vet and furs, with snow and ice in per-
spective, seem hardly fitting in connec-
ton with such especially summary
things as butterflies, but fashion has
decreed that they go well together, and
the thing Is done. Sometimes the ar
tistic imitstions are caught in the folds
of lace or chiffon jabot to be placed
underneath milady's pretty chin; as a
finishing touch to the new ruches Of
velvet fiossets they are more than de-
lightful.
In jewelry the butterfly appears
everywhere. The newest thing in this
direction is the butterfly bracelet, q
circlet of elastic gold, which is intended
to be worn midway between the elbow
and theshoulder, and which has great,
scintillsting. jeweled butterfly on the
outside The wings open and close with
every movement of the arm, and the
effect is lovely. Quite as pretty and
more easily within the reach of the
average woman are the butterfly hair
ornaments. There are mounted ON top
Of long pins or combs, and are as etab-
orateiy jeweaed as the purse of the
wearer will permit Sometimes these
ornaments are made of plain enamel,
studded with the tiny chip stone, which
are cheap and pretty. These are quite
as attractive as the more costly orna-
ments.-St. Louis Republic.

MISS ANNA ZEHNER, WHO DIS
APPEARED, RETURNS WITH
A HUSBAND.
HER ILLINOIS SWEETHEART.
HE CAME TO ST. PAUL UNEXPECT-
EDDY AND PROPOSED IMME-
DATE MARRIAGE.
SUGGESTION WAS AGREEABLE.
So They Went to Duluth, Where the
Young Woman Became Mrs.
George KnObeIOch.

The mysterious disappearance of Miss
Anna Zehner in this city Sunday morn
ing was explained by the young woman
in person yesterday, when she returned
from Duluth to inform her friends
whom she had been visiting her, that
she had been married. The young wom-
an was much surprised to learn that
her friends had employed the police to
trace her. She, however, took the mat
ter of her possible death or serious
injury in the nature Of an amusing
incident, as adding something of ro-
nance to her sudden and secret mar
riage. In moments of thoughtfulneSs,
Miss Zehner, that was, expressed re-
greet that the apprehensions of her
friends should have been aroused over
her rather unusual conduct, but she
was too much wrapped up in the hap
piness Of a newly made wife to view
the situation, which she had brought
about with any great degree of serious
ness.
The groom is George Knobeloch, a
real estate dealer of Bellville Ill, to
whom Miss Zehner had been engaged
fer some time. 1t was Mr.. Knobeloch,
whom she expected to join her at some
time during her visit in st. Paul, and
his unannounced arrival last Sunday
was responsible for the unpleasant COM
plications.
When Miss Zehner left the home of
Mr.. Weigel, on the West side Sunday
morning to keep the appointment with
Miss Refs and Miss Hermann, she says
she had no other thought in mind She
declares she had no idea Of seeing Mr..
Knobeloch, and that being married at
that particular time was fartherest
from her thoughts, as the fixing of the
wedding day had never been consider
ed. When she found her friends were
not on hand at Seventh and Robert
streets, Miss Zehner visited the post
office to inquire for mail at the general
delivery window. Here she received a
telegram from Mr.. Knobeloch, inform
ing her that he would be in st. Paul
that day and asking her to meet him
at the depot. She did so and her af-
famed proposed on the moment that
they be married. An excursion to Du-
luth was about to leave the depot, and
with the consent of the young woman
the couple boarded the train for the
head of the lakes, where they were
quietly married by Judge Ayers, of
the probate court. 1t was the intention
Of the newly married couple to embark
on one Of the lake boats for a wedding
trip, but when they received the st.
Paul G b e and learned of the state
of affairs here, they decided to return
to this city in order to set at rest the
minds of Miss Zehner's friends. Mr..
and Mrs. Zehner departed last evening
Tor the northern part of the state to
spend the honeymoon.
