, Mr.. James Jones, of the drug
firm of Jones & Son, Cowden, ILL.,,
in speaking of DIR. Kings New
Discovery, says that last winter
his wife was attacked with La
Grippe, and her case grew so
serious that physicians at Cow
den and Pana could do nothing
for her. 1t seemed to develop
into hasty consumption. Having
DR.. Kings New Discovery in store
and selling lots of it, he took a
bottle home, and to the surprise
of all she began to get better from
first dose, and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and well.

Painful Accident.

Miss Lula Mellon, the 11-year-
old daughter of j. A. Mellon,
met with very painful accident
yesterday afternoon. She was at
play in g. s. Scott's yard with a
number of other children and a
little son of j. B. Carlisle, who
was playing with a hatchet, ac-
cidentally let the sharp edge drop
on Lula's right hand, cutting the
bone of the middle finger clear
through and lacerating her first
and third fingers. She was TAX
on to the home of DIR. Smith near
by who soon stopped the flow
OF blood and dressed the wound.
Later in the evening, with the as
sistance OF DR.. Izlar, he put a
few stitches in the wound and
will do his utmost to save the fin
ger from being amputated. Lula
bore the pain with great courage
and is resting much easier today.
No blame whatever is placed on
the little boy as he is only two
years old and of course did not
realize what he was dong.

ROAD RACE FOR OCALA.

e
MAYsTH, OPEN TO ALMA
RION COUNTY RIDERS.
FESTIVAL BY THE
LADIES IN THE
EVENING.
The Ocala cycle club held a well
attended and enthusiastic meet
ing last night at T. e. Bugbee's
cycle rooms. About twenty mem
bers were present and everyone
manifested great interest in the
proceedings. The meeting was
called to order by vice-president,
F. e. Bugbee. Secretary, 1t. w.
Jones read communicative from
Percy Williams, in which he ten
dered his resignation as president.
He gave as his reason that he
would be located permanently in
Jacksonville and could not attend
to the duties of the office. His
resignation was accepted and j..
A. Mellon was nominated and
unanimously elected to fill the va
cancy.
The business for which the meet
ing was called was then taken up.
The executive committee reported
as having the Silver Springs path
completed to within less than two
miles of the springs and to COM
plete it would cost about $4,000
more than we had in the treasury.
The report was accepted and the
committee instructed to make an
other appeal to the citizens for a
small donation, SO that the bur-
den will not come so heavy on the
club members. When completed
clear through to the springs, this
track will be ching of beauty
and a joy forever and it is only
just and right that all should help
a little in building it. J

There was another good meet
ing at the M. E. church last
night and much good was SEEM
ingly done. There was one con.

Mr.. Carpenter preached one of
his soul-stirring sermons, which
the people here have learned to
to appreciate so well.

ROAD RACE.

The matter of holding q road
race was then taken up and after
some discussion it was unanimous
ly decided to hold one on Friday
May 7th, open to all Marion coun-
ty riders. The flyers will start
in the race at the Silver Springs
end of the bicycle path and come
through the city, out to the lime.
kiln on the newly paved street
and back to the public square.
This will make race of about
seven or eight miles and no doubt
will be very exciting. A manag-
ing committee consisting of T. E.
Biggs, III. w. Jones, A. .Truben-
bach, Herbert Crook and E. E.
Bugbee was appointed, who will
have general supervision of all
the details and power to select all
sub committees and race officials.
The matter Of having a boys
road race on the same afternoon
and also of having the lady MEM
bers of the club give a big festi-
val in the evening was discussed
and referred to the managing
committee with power to act.
It's also proposed to have a
bicycle parade through the princi-
pie streets of our city at some
suitable hour during the day of
the road race, in which all riders
of both sexes will be invited to
participate. 1t is estimated that
there are fully one hundred bicy-
Gle riders in the city, who have
wheels and altogether in a parade
would make very imposing
sight.
About SIX Or eight prizes viii
be offered to the winners in the
road race, d list of which will be
given later. A small entrance
fec will be charged, which will be
applied ON the expenses of the
bicycle path.
A committee of three, consist
ing of Sgd Hitler, Mr.. Harrison
and Frank Anthony was appoint
ed to select club badge and suit
able colors and report same a
next meeting. After an informa
talk on minor matters, the meet
ing adjourned to meet next Fir
day evening.

tones OF stone color are often MORN, as are
chestnut, russet and cinnamon brown.
One of the popular costumes in grey
green cloth is trimmed with emeralds, or
limitations thereof, and steel gallon. The
bolero-shaped short bodice is fastened with

which completes the costume, has a twist
of violet silk around the crown and
bunch OF shaded ostrich feathers starting
from an emerald and steel square buckle.
Really, however, the topic of the hour
is the coat and skiIt. Are they to be
dark, light, plain or braided? Must the
jacket be long or short? The genius who
answers these questions must consider
herself mainstay of fashion. The diplo-
matte one says, have a coat and skirt of
both kinds. If you cannot have but one,
however, take gray or drab cloth. This
is positively fashionable, no matter who
says IL is not. The people who rule fash
ion and frame the dictates of the tickle
dame say 1t is so. Then dark cloth
dress is very excellent. There is no use
trying to deny the fact that tue skirts OF
the hour are trimmed. Plain rows of
braiding will meet the demand of fashion
for decoration, and an excellent way of
treating these is 20 permit them to extend
their influence around the back and te--
inmate in small curl design on either
side of the front seams
A model costume is evolved from the
decoration of q plain skirt of dark blue
with rows of machine stitching up to the
knees, the coat of this being cut into
square tabs reaching to the waist, not
tight fitting, yet scarcely deserving the
title of sack. This coat fastens over at
one side with pointed revers faced with
guipure and is worn over bodice of blue
and green plaid glace, showing waistcoat
Of guipure mounted on lisse. The hat to
this is made of blue and green shot straw,
trimmed with large rosettes of glacs rib
bon and a bunch of blue poppies with
green centers.
This is to be q year of brilliant millin-
cry. The combination of color is some
thing to be remem bered, and not always
because it is pretty. For instance, one
model is of bright blue and green straw,
with large mauvs iris arranged in aigre tie
form and twists of all the colors in silk,
fastened with large paste ornaments. The
crown is high and the brim broad. And
the milliner says that hats Will be larger
yet. Verify, if we are ultra-fashiona able
this season we will have to suffer for it,
Straw hats are decorated with bands
of folded ribbon set on the top of the
crown, with huge punches of violets or
primulas on each side. The coloring of
the new straws is vivid in the extreme,
including the brightest OF blues, green's
and pinks.
The hat-crowns now rival the brims in

For Everyday Wear.

Tailor-made suits are TO be universally
worn by smart women as street costumes
and when travelling. The skirt and jacket
com bihation will be most popular. 1t is
certainly surprising how many changes
are made in so sim pie q model. The Eton
jacket will also be much worn, but the
bolero models are more fashionable.
The strictly plain tailor gown is worn
principally by business and professional
women. The leading tailors will reap a
harvest, as the braiding and ornamental
ton Of some of the handsomest costumes
make them exceedingly costly, ana, with
out exception, all must be made over silks
OF very superior quality. Many of the
models recently shown, although desti-
tute of trimming or braid, are OF such
beautiful cloth that the effect is most ex-
cellent. So all may be we'll gowned by
their tailors provided they avoid exagger-
a;ions.
The braided Eton jacket is the naturaI
sequence of the bolero, from which it
differs mainly in possessing sleeves,
whereby it may rank as species of coat.
The decoration in braid frequently inn
parts to it the character of the military
mess jacket.
Tailor skirts continue to grow smaller by
degrees and must fit smoothly around the
hips. Only around the hem is any stiffen-
ing allowed and then only three or four
inches, so as to induce the braid ing or the
machine stitching to set symmetrically.
The tiniest of bustles are being worn,
placed in the back, just where so many
women are concave, for when a skirt is alb
solutely ii ht just below the waist it some
times reveals ugly lines. But there is no
reason to fear the return of the large
hustle for many seasons yet to come.
The latest cloths are extremel light, but
thicker than usual on account of the very
elaborate patterns braided on them, and
plain skirts are not much in evidence.
A noted tailor has, within the past
few weeks, completed several attractive
gray cloth dresses. One of these is orna-
mented from ths hem to the knees with
rows of braid and another shows fancl-
full design also extended to the knees
A very artistic gown displays beauti-
full vine pattern carried around the bot
tom. Almost equally chic is another cos
tune deliberately ornamented with an
Egyptian design in black on gray back
ground. The same artist in cloth is
stocking jackets, which range from the
| bolero to tue REFER. The former is made g
tight-fitting to the waist, and in most
cases covered with beautiful pattern in
braid, which extends to the Medici collar,
which completes it at the neck. The
REFER is usually left plain and fastens at
one side with large buttons
The sleeves most generally seen are

moderate in size and set in small pleats at
the top. but the regular coat sleeves are
certainly, to my mind. by far the most
stylish, and Will shortly enjoy the great
est vogue. Indeed, strongly advise you
IN ordering handsome suit or jacket to
have this variety of sleeve. Some plump
women consider that the basque bodice
cut icto tabs Is more becoming to them
than any other style in cloth, and as a re-
suit few orders are being given for them.
Ha-per's Bazaar states that short jackets
are again in style this season, and both
black and light colored cloths will be worn.
The covert coats are as jaunty and smart
rs ever, with little or no change in cut.
single breasted, with very narrow revers
open just little way at the throat. ore
bias dart to give the desired curve at the
side, and tight-fitting in the back, with no
fare nor ripple. The covert cloths are
never braided and even the black cheviots
and capels-hair are now often made
plain; if braided, the hand braiding is re-
quired, not machine work. In all the
jackets the cut and fit are more considered
than anything else; the sleeves are very
much smaller, merely wide enough at the
top to allow for the fulIness of the dress
sleeve, and are gathered into the arm hole,
so that they stand out from the shoulders,
giving the desired width.
Another popular style of jacket is made
with straight, fat front, which opens on
the left side and is fastened by four mar
row, leaf-shaped tabs, cut out of the cloth
front and bound and stitched with the
same braid with which the jacket is
trim med, and buttoning TO four pearl but
tons. Near the buttons, on the left, there
is small f1ap-pocket. The cloth collar is
nothing more than high fiat band suit
able for ruff, or the new little circular
linen cellar faring out like rim.
Thousands OF women are now planning
ordering their tailor gowns, and I there
fore wish TO present as concisely as possi-
bic descriptions of the latest and hand
soonest seen thus far this season in New
York, London, Paris and Vienna.
At the Auteuil steeplechases the Prin-
cess oe Polignac had on blue serge cos
tune, with a wide trimming at the foot of
the skirt of white and ecru cloth, cut out
and inte-laced; bolero bodice, with white
revers embroidered with steel, the lower
/! part OF the bodice striped with white and
ecru cloth; white waistcoat, covered with
chiffon, and lace cravat; black straw
toquet, with black feathers. A Rouma-
nian lady wore a soft black cloth dress,
made with plain skirt, bolero bodice, en-
broidered with steel, mixed with a little
! gold and jet, opening over small waist
coat of cerise velvet, over which was q
| plastron and revers of ecru lace; waist
and neck band of black satin, with bow
at the back of the neck; toque of black
taffetas plisse, with an enormous black
