Gum Chcwer's Tongue.

It is ADMITTED by nll sensible people that
every pleasure has its attendant pain, and
that for every indulgence we must pay IL
penalty more or less heavy.
It is new idea, however, that the gum
chewcr is in danger of disease that, unless
checked, may I've the direct cause of n seri-
GUS malady that will in short time prove
fatal 1t is in addition q most painful Ill,
end one which will at first prove an I'M
solvable problem to the inexperienced prac-
htioner.
The symptoms are sensation as though
the tongue had been burned by " scalding
drink. This is followed by rcd spots and
inflammation along the sides of the tongue
near the root The back Of the tongue be
comes irritated, and round, red raw look
ing patches appear.
1t would be interesting to study these
indications and learn just how widespread
this disease is. Certainly those who have
suffered from 1T are fully alive to it's I'M
pleasant possibilities, and as it seems to
have escaped the notice of most medical
men, or the conditions having been attrib-
uted to other causes, n thorough investi-
cation would be Of great service to human
ity and of muck interest to science.-New

Of the regulation ia to keep out objec-

in more enlightened cities than New

capable of dropping upon vessel some

hundred pounds Of iron or steel and cxplo'

The layout Of Il battery is such that, all
is mortnrs being trained alike and princd,
the pressing Of one button will cause thcE,
I'LL to fire ut t 10 same instant. They arc
planted some 90 feet below the surface In
pits and are consequently quite concealed
from the enemy. If smokclcss powder
should be used, as 1T probably would be,
only ;tn indistirguishablc vapor would rise
from the pits to bctray the location of tho
buttcry. The enemy would henr report,
and, from he knew not where, the shells
would ruin down and pierce the decks. II
but three or four guns were fired, there
might be some hope of escaping injury,
but with IS pieces carefully trained. tho
chances of instant destruction of tho ship
arc greatly increased
But this is too close range to begin light
Ing, us tho cncmy's guns could long be-
fore have swept all within sight along
shore and done great damage to shipping
that had sought protection in the bay or
llarbor, and so coast defense guns IRE To-
Gated about the entrances to harbors and
bays. These, too, arc SO arranged as to be
hidden from the enemy, as it Is no longer
sufficient to build great granite walls,
pierced by portfolios and bristling with
cannon. These offer too good II target to
the enemy, ssld only " short period Of fire
against them with modern guns would
completely demolish them.

or black guipure will be much used in
this fashion over silk in black or colors.

grand vogue especially If 1lounces pro-
dominate, as it is predicted that they will.
It ia to be employed not only in its most
we'll known form, the plain, sheer goods,

with the brocho or embroidered varieties,
the latter composing the corsage, the for
mcr the skirt Some very pretty models of
ball gowns have been shown in this style.
The embroidery design is often of differ

Black velvet is having decided vogue
in tho form of accessories to light cos

ored gauze or other thin fabric. Yellow
and purple is also a combination of the

An illustration Is given Of a gown for a
little girl years old. 1t is of thin suede
cloth. The tablier laps over the sides Of
the skirt and is buttoned down with large
pearl buttons. The edge Is bordered by a
band of golden brown taffeta and there Is
also an embroidered decoration of silk OF
the same color. The bodice has a buttoned
plastron to match the tablier, the collar

The close sleeves have taffcta cuffs, and
