FOR WOMEN'S WEAR.

Gimp waists are quite the rage.
They are tucked and ruffled or are
made up of accordion-plaited silk.
Spring millinery is wonderfully at
tractive. The flowers look as though
they might have been gathered from
the garden and hot houses and the
shapes are pretty and conservative.
"A pretty gimp is of thin lawn and
lace insertion. Some of the gimps
have the insertion and lace running
from collar to waist line. In others the
trimming crosses from side to side.
A handsome dress if of brocade in
gray and black 1t is made with plain
skirt, wide straps cross over the shout
dcrs. This is worn with a gimp made
of accordion-plaited India silk in ivory
white.
a check silk in black and white has
black silk ruf1es down all of the seams
of the skirt and around the hem. There
is wide rest and bolero OF the ruflles,
and the shoulder caps are very full and
deliberately trimmed with the same
garniture. There is high collar with
an outstanding rufile of the silk Be-
low the elbows the sleeves are perfectly
plain.-N. Y. Ledger.

nosis Of our physician. He prescribed a
course of treatment and we followed 1t faith
fully for three months, but instead Of i'm
proving, Florence failed.
"a brother ofmy wife, who resided in Cana
d. but was visiting us, advised us to use DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, and
purchased box of the pills and began to
give them to Florence. This was in October,
1896 After using the pills short time we
could see an improvement. Her strength be-
gan to return and her appetite was restored.
When she had taken one box the pains in
her back and stomach ceased and her re-
covery seemed certain.

pills and watched with delight the change for
the better that was being wrought daily.
Florence finally became strong enough to
walk q little. She gained in flesh and
strength rapidly. BY the time she had used
three boxes Of the pills she was evidently

An Interesting Relic.

A sportsman who recently returned
from hunting trip in the Indian Ma
ton, brought with him to Wichita,
Kan, an interesting relic, which he dis
covered half buried on the bank of a
creek in the Cherokee strip forty miles
west of Pond creek. The relic is an
old rifle barrel. On it is the inscription:
sold Mike Jones, presented by Kit Car
son. 1870" On the side of the barrel is
the word ''scalps," followed by twenty
three file marks. Around the spot
where the barrel lay buried were the
bones of horses and men and two skulls.
The find probably reveals the fate of
Mike Jones, who is remembered as a
member of Kit Carson's adventurous
band, and who, about 1860, mysterious
ly disappeared from his winter haunts,
and has never been heard of since. The
bones lying around the old rifle proba-
bly, tell a silent tale of an Indian attack
and raising of scalps.

He spoke slowly, as if to give her
time to take in che significance of his
words. Her face whitcned slowly, and
as he finished she dropped at his feet in
faint like death.
She was married in the dim twilight
in the old church at home. with Just her
mother and sisters near her, and her
lather watching her with softencd eyes.
The organ murmured in full, soft
'hords, but there were no strangers, no
'ridal display. AS she stepped out

young, faint crescent of the moon met
her eyes.

softly, bending down that She alone

Tho Fading Declaration.

The Declaration Of Independence
Is kept between two great plates of
glass. the edges of which are hGs:net-
ically sealed. At intervals and as a
special favor the Gu ,todian pulls out
drawer in a huge steel box and
shows the treasure. But most Of the
time the two plates, with their sheet
OF parchment between, rest where
burglars cannot break through, where
fire cannot reach them. and where
daylight cannot complete the raw
ages already wrought ny exposure.
Visitors to the State Department who
want to see the Declaration are shown
perfec fac-simile, which hangs in a
handsome frame and looks old
enough to be the original. They go
away none the wiser for the substitu-
ton. The truth is that the Declare
ton was fast becoming a tradition
when the extraordinary steps for
preservation were taken about three
years ago.
In the administration of John
Quincy Adams copper plate of the
original was made. To get the copy
for the engraver the surface OF the
parchment was moistened with wet
cloth. A print was taken. 1t re-
moved about so per cent Of the ink.
For some years the original was ex
hibited under glass at the Patent
Office. 1t hung where the sun
reached short time each day, unit:
the; discovery was made that the
script was fading Better care was
taken when the Declaration was hung
in the library of the new State De-
partment building. Blu: for some
reason, never satisfactorily explained.
the signatures suddenly seemed to he
fading. John Hancock's uame, one
OF the boldest On the sheet, in the
space OF two Or three years became
too dim to distinguish. Then the
officials having charge saw that if
left in the light the original would in
few generations entirely disappear.
The strong box was built. The plates
OF glass were obtained ard sealed. In
the drawer underneath the Declare
tor, the copper plate made in
Quincy's time is kept. Tho Declare
ton can be deciphered with the aid
of glass, but the signatures are al.
most entirely faded out. What is
left Of the reyered instrument will,
with present precautions, last long
time. .. ... .-..
