In hogs snout Is not stated. Jewels of
silver induce extravaganza, and 1t is GER
tainly true that the more silver one has
the more one is likely to spend.
Metal and jeweled belts seem to be en-
joying decided vogue abroad. Belts Of
satin, silk or kid are embroidered with
gold, silver or steel in the form of spangles,
beads and cabochons and are fastened with
paste or other buckles of brillianoy.
Buttons are quite as fashionable as ever
and will be for long time to come. They
are as elaborate as pieces of jewelry, and
two or three of these works Of art add
much to the appearance of gown.
The illustration given today shows q
hat Of white felt with medium wide,
curling brim. 1t is bound with black vel
vet around the edge and has black velvet
band around the crown, finishing with
fat bow on the left side. A cluster Of
white cog feathers is arranged above the
bow and secured by large paste buckle

The story was told on an Alabama man
who turned Radical after the war. He
was making a Republican speech one
day, when some one asked him if he had
not ssid in that very town before the war
that we could whip the Yankees with
popguns. He replied that he had said SO,
bpt the darned Yankees would not fight
us with popguns.

Purchase of Cuba In Contemplation.
There is a rumor afloae in ofic,al cir
cles that, if true, is most important. This
is nothing less than that this government
is about to make overtures to Spain for
the purchase of Cuba. However this may
be, it has long been known 30 the world
at large that the value of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters as remedy for oonsti-
patton, malaria, dyspepsia, rheumatism,
kidney complaint and nervousness is be-
yond all price. A wineglassful before
meals imparts hearty relish for the food,
and corresponding dose before retiring
contributes to sound repose. No medi-
cinal stimulant on the market ever re-
ceived such strong professional indorse-
ment as the Bitters. It is most genial
tonic, affordipg strength to all who use
it. Not only in this country, but in many
foreign lands, it is an admitted specific
aud preventive. As a safeguard against
all disease Of a malarial type it is par
ticularly valuable.

Rings and Their Signifcance-shoes, Buc-

An engagement ring in France is usual
ly set with sapphire, which signifies
eternal love- 1t is a pretty idea, but
eternities differ in length. Every stone
has its own meaning, favorable or unfa-
vorable The emerald and the opal, par
ticularly the latter, are considered unlucky,
as everybody knows. The topaz, which is
only semiprecious, gives good fortune.
The ring of Gyges was set with topaz,
and he was certainly fortunate, for he
could become invisible at will and so es-
cape bores and listen to other peoples Sc

The Mississippi Floods.

1t is given out that the waters
have so far receded in the flood
ed districts along the Mississippi
as to enable a close estimate to
be formed of the damages, and
good experts say that they will
not exceed $I4, 100000, and that
half of the loss will be made up
by the floods fertilization of the
lands.
1t is claimed that the damage
is much less than that caused by
the floods in the same section in
1890, although the waters in
that year did not rise as nigh as
in 1897 by several feet. 1t is
claimed also that the shortening
OF the cotton crop will not be as
great as was first supposed. Four
teen million five hundred thous
and dollars is a good sum to lose,
but at one time the impression
prevailed that the damage caused
by the floods over the delta lands
of the Mississippi would reach a
very much higher figure, and it
is gratifying to learn that the
experts fix the loss far below first
estimates. 1t IS also gratifying
to learn that the shortening of
crops will be much less than was
expected.
