COLD IN THE-HEAD

Is acute inflammation and swelling of the
Olfactory organ which contains the
Nerves of Smell. This organ is a long
ribbon-like membrane and hangs from
the roof of the Nasal passage in folds, as
seen In Fig. 8. When this condition be
comes chronic, or permanent, it is called
cATARRH. The folds become swollen
into a solid mass, 30 the air In breathing
cannot circulate between them hence
the loss of smell The Catarrhal microbe
soon makes its appearance, causing a
multitude of small ulcers between these
folds. The pus from these ulcerc Is very
poisonous and soon impregnates the
whole mucous surface of the nose, hsad
and throat with the disease. MedIca.
works show cases where the tonsils have
become a corrupt mass of ulcers. 1t not
infreQuently involves thewhole bronchial
ton and death. Il will be seen that
nothing can radically cure Catarrh which
does not reach to the seat of the disease
between these folds of the Olfactory
organ, and cleanse and heal these ulcers.

FRiLLS OF FASHION.

Mauve and brown are one OF the pop
ular contrasts in millinery.
Torehon and valenciennes patterns
combined are the new laces for trim
ming undergarments.
Blouse waists of velvet or velveteen,
with narrow metal belt, are the cor
rect bodice for skating costumes.
Watches have gradually diminished in
size until now the very latest bit OF
enamel, set round with diamonds, is no
larger than a mans signet ring.
One secret OF success in dress is tn
find out the colors which are most be-
coming and never wander away from
these, no matter what the fashion is.
Mahogany hair is the latest
fad, and the transition period between
dark brown and this coveted shade OF
red is very interesting to the keen OBJ
server.
Satin ribbon two inches wide, plated
on the inside Of the skirt at THE bottom,
is the balayeuse which fashion favors
just at present. 1t is more durable than
the pinlsvd silk rutile.
Fine book muslin in all the pretty light
tints is used for evening waists for the
young girls, and it is made over cheap
silk or satin, trimmed with lace and
ribbons and worn with light-colored or
black silk skirts.
Muff chains OF gold with diamonds
set at intervals. so that they are open on
both sides, are one of the novelties in
iewelry. Rubies, sapphires, emeralds
and amethysts are also distributed in
the same manner.
