FASHION NOTES

Orange is combined with navy, grayish
and bluet blue shades. A yoke collar.
frill and folds in the wrists of orange silk
trim naYy-blue canvas made over light
blue taffeta; narrow satin ribbon in scroll
trims the wrist, blouse front opened on
the left and the skirt edge.
Black grenadines made over black are
very popular with No. or No. black
satin ribbon put on the skirt, and loose
blouse front in scroll patterns. The CO.
lar and belt of satin, velvet or ribbon, and
lace ruche in the neck and sleeves supply
the needed bit of color in mauve, orange,
cerise, pink or green.
For visiting costumes China crepes are
lined with silk and have a satin girdle
and collar of darker shade than the
dress.
Medallions of fine silk braid are used on
such semi-transparent goods as yelling
and barege both of which are favored
for midsummer.
The round bodice is tucked and opened
on the left with rows of embroidery be-
tween the tucks, on the wrists, and out
lining the narrow skirt front.
The looser. larger meshed goods or can
vas weaves are lined with chaugeabIe silk
and have belt and collar to match one
color and a silk vest of the other. All
have the loose blouse corsage.
Trimmed skirts increase in favor as the
season advances.
Veranda decoration is quite a fad. Large
armchairs and hammocks are fitted up
with gorgeous pillows in the most pro,
nounced shades. The pillows are made
with double rufles. The centers are in
plaids, reds and greens being the most
admired.
Swiss embroidered muslin of the finest
kind is made up into dainty summer
gowns over silk Innings, and pretty Gg-
ured lawns are tucked from the knee to
the deep hem, as they were years ago.
Transparent effects play a large part In
summer millinery, and null, chiffon, net
and tulle are shirred into the prettiest-
shaped hats, with both lightness in color
and weight to recommend them.
Ribbon belts made of two lengths of
ribbon folded and crossed on the hips, so
that they form points back and front, are
useful accessory of dress, since they are
boned and hooked in front, and, conse-
quently, are always in place.
A new stock which attracts by its
daintiness is made of chiffon or mousse
line de sole. The material is laid in d.
minutive cross-wise plaits on a standing.
collar foundation and a plated cravat is
fastened in front

Some children suffer dreadfully with
hives, and it IS always dangerous to drive
them H. by applying things on the outside.
a. they denote impurity of the blood that
ought to be brought out instead of driven
in. While you are giving it some mild
blood medicine you can ease the dreadful
itching of the hives by baths of salt water
or by applying damp soda directly 10 the
bumps. Both are good remedies for mos
quito bites and will do valiant service in
Kidding one Of chiggers. Coal oil will still
the troublesome mites, even after they
have got to digging. If you are in chigger
grass for any length of time do not wait
for the torments to get in their work, but
dampen a cloth with coal oil and rub
yourself off just as soon as you get home.
IN an hour you can take a bath in salt
water and feel reasonably safe from the
pests.

in mywomb.
Doctors could do nothing for me. and
they could not cure me at the hospital.
/ viii tell you about it;
l had been in my usual health, but
had worked quite hard. When my
monthly period came on, 1 flowed very
badly. The doctor gave me medicine,
but it did me no good. He said the
flow must be stopped if possible, and
ne must find the cause of my trouble.
Upon examination, he found there
was Fibroid Tumor in my womb, and
gave me treatment without any benefit
whatever. About that time a lady
called on me, and recommended Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
said she owed her life to it. /
said I would try it, and did. Soon
after the flow became more natural and
regular / still continued taking the
Compound for some time. Then the
doctor made an examination again,
and found everything all right. The
tumor had passed away and that dull
ache was gone.-MRs B. A, LOMBARD,

BY far the Queerest OF all the French
freak notions which have lately been
waited over 10 this side Of the water Is an
idea evolved In Paris lately. 1t is the Gull
nary masquerade. The idea involves
dinner a. which each guest must represent
something to eat No special list OF dishes
is named In the invitation, the selection
thereof being left to the good taste OF the
guests. Each may appear anything dosir-
ed, from broiled lobster TO a Welsh rab-
bit. provided his ingenuity Is sufficient 70
enable him to successfully represent
either. In most instances. however. the
guests conhnt their masquerade to their
hcaddress. as it Us much easier TO fulal
the idea they intend 20 convey In this man
ncr than in any other.
The FIRST practical illustration OF this in
gonious idea was given by one OF the en-
tcrprisIng hostesses OF the Champs Ely
sees. The invitations were sent out In the
form OF "a representation Of a dinner table
covered with the good things in and out Of
season. Before one of The places az the
table on the card was tho name of the
lady or gentleman hidden 20 the feast. Al

added iniimaung the wish that each guest
should appear with his or her head dress
