For an Elaborate Wedding,


the brides gown must of course be
rich, but always of pure white.
AS for the gowns that the June
bridesmaids will wear-you must
see them to know just how really
beautiful gowns of grenadine crepe
de chine and a hundred other airy
fabrics can be.
| notice that pink continues as
much in vogue as ever as a popular
color at weddings. 1t has quite
taken the place of the dainty blue
that held sway, and was about the
only color permitted IN wedding
toilets for so long. Yellow and
green come next to pink in pOpu-
! larity.
The favorite bodice model in
bridesmaids frocks has a neck cut
only moderately low and round, and
long sleeves that come down over
! the hands in frills of lace or other
flimsy stuff. No jewelry is worn by
the up-tO date bridesmaid. The
bridesmaids slippers must cor
respond in color with the silk lining
of her gown and general color
scheme. If her gown is green and
white one, her slippers and stock
ings must be of green. With the
long-sleeved gown she does not
wear gloves, but carries in her hand
a bOquet of natural flowers, either
pure white or some very delicate
tint, tied with ribbon to match her
gown. Grenadine, in white, is a
fabric particularly adaptable to re-
quiremeuts of the bridesmaids
frock. 1t drapes effectively and is
just thin enough to show the bright
silk lining, worn beneath it, suf-
ticiently.
One of the new white grenadine
frocks of the season is made up over
creamy white satin. The skirt hangs
full and is bordered by no less than
fifteen rows of narrow white satin
ribbon. The sleeves are in tiny
puffs, between every puff a satin
band and smart little bow. The full
bodice is striped with the ribbon
horizontally, and is cut square in
the neck, which is finished in a
quilting of white satin ribbon. A
wide white satin ribbon sash will be
worn about the waist tied at the
back. This frock is so arranged
that it can be worn over a cOlored
slip as well as the white one.
Figured Organdie-that is, organ
die with a white or delicately tinted
ground, sprinkled over with sprays
or clusters of flowers, is very popu-
lar fer bridesmaids gowns and is
less expensive than many other ma
terials that do not look as pretty

a SONG.

"That passed over, and this may, too"
Many sorrows have come and gone,
Pain has t8rried-and then, passed on.
THAT passed over, and this may, too.'
This is the song would sing TO you,
Now that trial has come once more.
You've conquered pain in the days OF
YOre,
Chat passed over, and this may, too"
Who forgets that the skies are blue,
In dleary seasons of fog ana rain?
Tomorrow the wind may shift again.
"That passed over, and this may, too"
God who sendeth the summer dew,
Guardeth the daffodil under the snow.
Spring must come, and the winter go.
"That passed over, and this may, too"

extremely smart, and for silk, mus
lin, gauZe or cashmere frOcks this is
most singularly fetching. 1t takes
time to create such IA skirt, and
twice or three times the usual
amount Of material, and in con-
sequence the dressnaker's bill for
such a skirt is always very large,
especially when each little ruffle is
bound or edged with lace or velvet.
With such skirts the bodice is
usually pulled, and has sleeves
pulled all the way from wrist to
shoulders, and sash or tight cein-
ture nips in the waist, while the
stock is close and high, with frill
or ruche standing up about the top
edge.
A great deal Of trimming is
lavished upon sleeves, just as it is
upon skirts, and, although they fit
the arm closely, they are fused up
to look larger than the natural arm.
Little, full frills of lace are some
| times set on, one after the other, an
/ inch apart, from shoulder to wrist,
| til top being slightly bOuffant, and
the wrist very.'1Olfg, nalf-cOvering
| the hand.
Pulled sleeves are in high favor,
and the puffs composing them are
both large and small. A very pretty
fancy is that of separating the puffs
with a narrow row of black velvet
ribbon, making up a very dressy
whole. For the new cashmere
gowns this is a charming fashion, as
the fine cashmere makes the most
beautiful puffs. Occasionally one
sees sleeves pulled lengthwise, with
the velvet ribbon running between
the putfs, but this mode is only suit
able for women with stout arms, as
it makes a slender arm look very
small and thin.

ELECTRIC BITTERS.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gem
orally needed when the languid, ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of a tonic and Alternative is felt. A
prompt use of this medicine has often
averted long and perhaps fatal bilious
fevers. No medicine will act more
surely in cOunteracting and freeing the
system from the malarial poison. Head
ache, indigestion, constipation, dizzi-
ness yield to Electric Bitters. soc and

There is a popular idea that June
is the favorite month for weddings,
and that the young woman who
loves romance and wishes fortune to
smile upon her nuptials in every
way must choose this Of all months.
Cold and unrOmantic fact, however,
shows that the three most popular
marriage months are October, No
vember and December. Fifty years
records show this to be true, and
also demonstrate the fact that the
most unpopular months for mar
riages are January, February and
March.

The Irrepressible Shirt Waist.

OF course a shirt waist, to be a
shirt waist, must conform to certain
rules, but it may be decorated ac-
cording to fancy.
Very dainty little summer shirt
waists are made of plain muslin in
bright colors and are quite as stylish
as those of silk. A smart cotton
shirt waist is built of delft blue
chambray, with pointed yoke at
the back, small tucks forming a
yoke effect in front.
Plaid waists, in both cotton and
silk, are en- regale, and are finished
with belt of plaid and stock of the
same. These are shown you by the
dealers as the latest novelties. They
will be much worn throughout the
summer season with crash and linen
skirts.
You cannot 60 about picking up a
shirt waist here and tn ere and eX-
pect to look as we'll in them as your
more practical friend who has de-
voted much time and thought to the
shirt waist subject. 1t is not the
question OF how many shirt waists
one owns, but how becoming they
are that is most important. Cut and
color are to be considered first, then
comes the style of the collar and the
tie.
Bingham, madras and percale are
to be preferred to those of thinner
materials for everyday wear, and
in fact, are more appropriate.
Gloves always seem out of place
with cotton waists, and yet one does
not quite like to go barehanded
Dressed kid gloves are certainly not
suitable, and wash chamois gloves
do look so clumsy. Silk gloves are
returning to favor, and these, with
thin suede, seem more in keeping
with cotton bodices or any outing
suit.

The Wedding Gift.

The June DelineatOr gives some
ideas upon this subject which are
novel and useful. 1t says: The
choice of a wedding gift for the
June bride is not easy when she has
already many possessions. A novel
wedding present recently seen was a
silver spoon for dishing green peas,
the handle ornamented with a vine
ending in an open pOd-full of peas,
while the bowl was perfOra ted.
Another new gift is a tea ball of
Dresden china, with silver mount
ings. Any pretty accessory for the
tea table is always a welcome gift.
A beautiful teapot of quite the lat
est design is of lockwood ware, in a
pinkish- brown or olive tone, overlaid
with silver network. The latest
vases, bOnbon dishes, etc, show
such networks of silver and gold
most beautiful results being OBJ
tanned from the combination of
glass or china and metal. Good
taste no longer sanctions the display
of the bridal gifts at the wedding
reception or breakfast, and more
and more frequently is this display
omitted. This is obviously to rob
ones friends of part of the delight
of the wedding festivities, for to see
what gifts have been received is no
small enjoyment to the average wo-
man-guest. Then, too, it is some
times insinuated that certain rich
friend does not send her shining
gift to have its light thus hidden
under a bushel. Hence, to appease
all concerned, invitations are some
times sent out to wedding-gift re-
ception or tea two or three days be-
fore the wedding. These invita-
tions are often written by the bride
to-be and are cordial little notes
calling together her personal friends

when made up. A very fetching or
candle gown mat will do nicely for a
summer party gown, when the ser
vice it is particularly intended it
shall do is over with, has a ground of
pure white, over which are irregu-
larly scattered purple viOlets with
long green stems and occasional
leaf. This frock is made up over
white silk. A pale shade of violet
ribbon and white lace, of spider web
fineness, does the trimming. The
sleeves are in tiny puffs, and about
the foot of the skirt there are five
very narrow ruffies. Very girlish
and airy is this little frock.

Wellington, Carbon Co., May 15.-The
people OF this little town were thunder
struck by the awful suicide this morn
ing Of Mrs. VIM. T. Reid, while under
a fit of temporary insanity caused by
long continued sickness.
She must have decided to cause her
death- the evening before, for after
cautioning them to lay quiet and not
get uncovered she placed her clean
clothes where they could be easily
found to dress her in after death. She
took a pair of sheep shears and made
five different cuts in her throat, one Of
which cut her wind pipe almost in
two but none of which touched the
jugular vein.
She must have begun the deed soon
after midnight, for it could be seen
where she had gone all around the
room and to the cupboard, and where
She had placed her hands on the table
and leaned over on it.
Some of the blood stains on her face
were dry and hard before death. show

the deed was done. When the children
