ALABAMA'S BRAVE WOMEN
Parenthood-

Children bind husband and wife mora closely than the wedding ceremony itself. One half of married misery is due to the growing hysical weakness of women, which makes child bearing a dreaded burden and prevents those close relations between bus. band and wife, without which happiness cannot exist. How important then is 1t that the woman be brought to as perfect so that she can give to her offspring out of her abundance of life and spirits. pr. Simmons Squaw Vino Wine will do this; it will purify her blood, tone up her nervous system and give her courage and assur. childhirth

APRONS IN FAVOR.

Aprons. for so many years regarded
women, promise to be the rage in the
smart set in London. The apron of the
future. however. will differ from that
which our grandmothers used to wear.
In the days gone by it was somber
affair of black silk or alpaca, some
times set off by a few dainty tucks or
rows of herringbone stitching and lit
tie very fine lace. Now the very cheap
est aprons are made of the finest white
linens, muslins and batistes and are
puffed and frilled with lace and trim
med with ribbons until the old ladies
OF a hundred years ago would never
dream that they were aprons. The fin
est aprons are made of real lace and are
well worth passing down from genera
tiOn TO generation.
An English woman recently ordered
an apron that cost $500. II is made of
brussels rose point in an exquisite
floral scroll design and has a border of
roses. She didn't get it to wear when
doing up the kitchen work. but she
dons it when serving afternoon tea or
doing a dainty piece of fancy work.
Some of the lace aprons have pastoral
pictures in which figures are introduce
ed and are very quaint looking with
their floral borders. Still others are
embellished with butterflies, birds and
blossoms.
Men Ike aprons. so ii is pretty safe
10 say that the fashion OF wearing them
viii soon take hold here. Some Of the
shops are already importing them. and
the managers say they will go like hot
cakes when chatting dish time comes
round again Nothing domesticates a
woman in appearance like an apron. and
a very frivolous girl can sometimes de-
coy very clever bachelor with one II
she only knows how 10 wear il. or at
least that is what some of the clever
bachelors say themselves There Is a
great deal in knowing how 10 wear an
apron. The most costly apron ever made
was worn by the Duchess of Queens
berry in the last century II was made
entirely Of point lace and was valued az

AT THE RESORTS.

Newport life varies at this time OF
the season but little from day 10 day.
There is always plenty TO do and every
thing TO enjoy. Preparations have al
ready been begun for the annual fete
and Illumination of the city and har-
Dor. which have come to be in many re-
spects the most attractive incidents of
the summer.
Everything at Narragansett Pier Is
bright and fresh looking The hotels
are full, the casino is literally patron
lied, and there is the usual free and
easy atmosphere about everything and
everybody. The bathing beach. which
is one OF the features Of life at Nara
gansett, is as popular as ever. though
there is less originality displayed in the
bathing costumes than has been seen
there for some years. The new bathing
pavilion, which has replaced the one de-
stroyed by fire last season. is model
in every respect and as exclusive as IL
is perfect y Hungarian band plays
for the bathers and the spectators. who
are asked 20 pay an admission TO walk
on the broad promenade.
At Bar HarbOr recently John De
Koven Of Chicago gave a large dinner.
and on the same night a charming
dinner dance took place. These dances
which proved 50 successful last season.
are a feature again this year, and there
is every chance for them 10 be as gay
affairs in the future as they have been
in the past.
Lenox is enjoying z peaceful summer
season. with most of It's beautiful sum-
mer homes occupied BY their owners.
The past week has been fairly gay with
informal entertainments Of nearly ev-
cry description. iuncheons teas and
dinners. of course. pred0rni mating.
House parties have been the rule.

TABLE LINEN.

Remember that it pays to have only
the best Of table linen.
Floral designs are now marked rs the
latest thing in table linen. and the fig

than ever.
Instead of the single bud or medium
sized blossom. with an occasional leaf
or spriE IF foliage. found on the table

branches laden with both leaves and
flowers.

Her selection for the post OF superin-
tendent gives general satisfaction. The
new superintendent was Miss Kate Al
pine. She went to Joliet from WILSON,
sin in 1859. and her education was ac-
quired chiefly in the public schools of
the city. She began To teach in 1866 and
continued in that work until 1879. when
she was married 10 James E Hender-
son In 1881 she returned 10 her profes-
sion. and since that time she has taught
in almost every department OF the
schools. Mrs. Henderson studied while
she taught. In 1895 she was elected a
member 81 the school board az large.
and her work in that body was most
gratifying. Her good judgment in So
lectinE and assigning teachers. in the
instruction OF young teachers and in
other matters regarding the advance
ment Of the public schools and their
operation has NOM been rewarded oy
placing her n the head Of the eiuca-
uonal machinery OF Joliet. The posi-
ton Is en- important one. Mrs. Hender-
sen receives $500 per year and has
complete charge OF the schools.
