AN AWFUL SORE
"A Babes Untold Suffering
And Mothers Many
SIeepIess Nights.
CUTICURA WORKS WONDERS.

1 herewith write out in full the beginning
and end of that terrible disease, Eczema,
which caused my babe untold suffering, and
myself many sleepless nights.
My baby was born seemingly fair healthy
child, but when she was three weeks old
swelling appeared on the back of her head and
in course Of time broke. Every one called it
a boil, and, now it had broken, would soon heal,
but that was only the beginning of the trouble.
1t did not heal but grew worse, and the sore
spread from the size of dime to that of dol
lar. fused all kinds of remedies that | could
think of but nothing seemed to help, in fact
it grew worse, her hair fell out where the sore
was and feared it would never grow again.
1t continued until my aged father came on
visit, and when he saw the baby he told me
"to get CUTIoURA SOAR and CUrIouRA oint-
ment right away" To please him l did so,
and to my surprise, by their use the sore be-
gan to heal over, the hair grew over 1t, and
to-day she has nice head of hair, her skin
is as fair as lily, and she has no scar left to
recall that awful sore.
CUTICURA soothes and allays all itching and
burning that cause a child to fret and the
mother to worry, and gives rest and comfort
both to parent and child.

Scientists have discovered that a wo-
mans perception of color is considera bly,
greter than that of man. On the other
hand, men have as a rule much keener
sense of smell. A woman's non-color
blindness is undoubtedly largely due to her
education, while she may also have some
innate faculty to aid her in that direction.
From girlhood, however, a woman, in her
feminine love of dress and attention to it's
details, is trained to distinguish not only
colors but shades. As q result few wo-
men are really color-bind, though many
have less power of perceiving some one or
two colors than they have of others This
well-known fact has been utilized in a
color party where the prize was bestowed
on the person who correctly named the
shade shown.

Russian women are said to be the most
brilliant and accomplished in Europe.
A Chicago oculist, who has grown rich
IN the practice of his specially, says his
fortune is built on the face wells of wo-
men. The fine lines and dots are extreme
~ injurious, and bring all sorts of dis
eases of the eye. Most women know by
their own experience that after taking off
a ven they see spots and rings, or have
dlmneSS of vision, seeing everything in a
blur but so long as wells are SO extremely
fashionable few are likely to heed the
warning. dotted face veil, like the
mantle of charity, covers up a multitude
of faults.
The costumes which Mrs Mckinley will
wear at the inaugural and on state occa-
sions were designed by herself and are
being made in Chicago. 1t is understood
that they will be among the most magni-
hcent ever displayed in Washington So
ciety. The cost of the costumes will be
between $1,000 and $4,000. They are pro-
nounced by those who have viewed them
to be among the best creations of the art
OF dressmaking which have yet been at

worn at the Inauguration is especially
handsome. The material is what IS known
as cloth of silver The ground work is

ing, measures two yards and half in
length. on the left side it is open over a
panel of seed pearls embroidered on satin
Beginning at the bottom is flounce of
Venetian point lace of special and beau
uful design, a half-yard in width, which
is oascaded narrow at the bottom and
gradually widens toward the top until it
is extended its full width over the hip and
out to the back, where it is partly con-
cealed under the full train. The
right side of the skirt is also slashed
open half way up, and under that is an
embroidered pettieoat of pearls. The bo-
dice is tight-fitting and slightly pointed
front and back. The lower part is of sill
yer cloth and the upper and back of pearls
The same beautiful lace that is used in the
fiounce is fastened at the waist line into a
narrow point and is draped wider toward
the shoulders in a V-shape The collar is
of pearl embroidered satin and from it a
high Medici collar of the lace The
sleeves are long and fairly tight and are
finished at the wrist with Vandyke effect
embroidered at the edge, from which they
fall from narrow lace of the same design
az that on the skirt. With this gown Mrs
Mckinley wears number of diamonds to
fasten the lace on the front of her gown
the handsomest being diamond star and
sunburst of unusual brilliancy. The lin
ing of this beautiful gown is of white
satin, heavy and rich. Around the bot
tom and side are a half-dOzen ruffles to
give a full effect. The lace which is used
was made especially for the establishment
where the gown was designed. 1t is al
most priceless in value, the whole pattern
being purchased by Mrs. Mckinley.
