The New Ribbons.

The new ribbons are very attractive
and are evidently going to be more than
ever feature of dress trimming. There
are gorgeous plaids and the most fascis
mating array Of stripes, up and down
and across in the Roman fashion Three
or four shades of one color are striped
together, with possibly a velvet stripe
on one edge, and then again there are
many stripes of contrasting colors blend
ing together with a bright pretty effect,
Oriental brocaded ribbons add TO the
variety, and so do glaoe ribbons with
fancy borders. There are uncut velvet
ribbons with the ribs running cross,
wise, some in lovely colors, the newest
being clear shade of purple blue.

Aluminium Wire.

Aluminium wire is made of various
sizes and used for a variety of purposes
Among its newer uses is the manufac-
ture of door and window screens. When
exposed to the weather, such screens do
not rust. Aluminium wire is used in
the manufacture of hairpins In few
cases in this city aluminium wire has
been sold to be put up ON roofs for use
as olotheslines. The wire sold for this
purpose was No. 6 gauge, which costs
go cents pound, and 1000 feet Of
which weighs "a pounds.
Aluminium pigs sell now at about 40
cents a pound, which is about half the
price Of a year ago. The sale of manu-
factured articlesof aluminium is all the
time increasing and things in great va
riety are made from it.-New York Sun.

MISSING PEOPLE.

The Great Mystsry Which surrOunds
Their DllAppsaraneo and What hseom's
OfThsm.
Scarcely a day passes that we do
not read In the newspapers Of some
man or woman who is reported missing
and in the majority OF cases these peo-
pie forsake happy homes without any
earthly reason FOR doing so and their
fate often becomes a mystery"
''The cause OF these disappearance
has excited widespread discussion Of
late, and some OF our best noyeiists
have founded thrilling romanees on this
strange subject. But no one has yet
been able to find an answer TO the
question, What becomes OF these miss
Ing people?'
"Pephaps the best explanation OF the
mystery may be found In the words OF
New York physician who is a keen
observer According to his theory, these
people are sufferers from various dis
astrous maladies from which they gain
no relief. Their surroundings eventually
become unbearable to them. In their
diseased imaglnations they fancy ev-
erybody is an enemy. although sur
rounded be- friends, Driven TO despair,
they at last forsake their homes and
become wanderers on the face OF the
earth or else-which Is very probable
commit suicide"
ANY person who Is not in perfect
health Is liable to meet with this ter
rible fate. Even those who fancy them-
selves strong, well and mentally sound
may become unhappy, morose and de-
spalring. The seriousness OF these facts
should cause every man and woman to
stop. consider and see II he or she Is
realty we'll There are so many dread

The worst of all troubles OF this kind
arises from uric acid poison. which, be-
ing in the blood, not only causes rheu-
matism, neuralgia and govt, but often
affects the mind or the vital organs.
Now, the cause of uric acid in the sys-
TEN or In the blood Is because the kid
neys are either too weak or too diseased
to throw II from the system. When the
uric acid is not discharged II remains In
