called ajtiIed in fUll-dress uniform, and
explained that he was surgeon attached
to n regiment. But Marie recognized the
uniform as that OF general, and
told him so, whereupon he admitted
that he was a general, but fer political
reasons did not desire to have
this TACT made public, as he had come to
Essen to obtain information for the Aus
trian Government about Krupp's latest
inventions in regard to projectiles.
He stayed long time that evening lis

parting left his phoioeraph with her.
This photograph the lady showed to some
OF her friends, who declared that the origi-
nal Of the picture must be prince because
he wore the de coration of the Golden
Fleece around his neck. When the lover
called again Marie upbraided him with
his deceltfulness, and he now told her
that he was the Aichduke FraEz Ferdi-

tended to renounce his rights to the
succession for which he had never
felt the least inclination. In order
to evade his duties he had simulated an
incurable disease of the lungs, and ha
circulated the story that he was too sick
TO live much longer. He also said that
he had graduated from two universities
and was doctor and philosopher.
In the course of further conversation he
became very sad and sentimental aud

intrigues OF a lady of high rank (Arcb-
duchess Stepbanie, widow OF the late
Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria). who

she would become the future Empress of
Austria, an expectation 10 which she had

Just 10 the west of the western peak OF
TamaIpais there can be seen, from almost
ny point to the south Of the mountain,
queer-looking gray patch. 1t appears no
bigger than a mans hand, and at first
glance looks as If some one had been
dumping ashes on the mountain side.
This is the burned spot of Tamalpais.

full of interest although it is not an easy
place TO get at. But it is easier to reach
now than it was two years ago. There is
only one trail through it. One end oil this

Housekeeping.

If a woman is in good health there is
no more beautiful employment than
homework, Generally speaking, there
is no happier woman in the world. But
how different when every breath is
pain, every step torture! This state of
health, in nine cases out of ten, comes
from arrangements of the delicate,
feminine organs of generation. The
family doctor inquiries first concerning
these. He most usually insists upon an
examination" From this the modest
woman naturally shrinks. She is right.

Burning,
Eczema

Is the external indication of a con-
dition of the blood which produces a
fiery irritation almost unbearable. 1t is
a mistake to think that this local irrita-
ton is the disease itself-it is simply an
evidence of disordered condition of the
blood, The seat of the disease is in the
blood, and this is why the various salves
and ointments usually applied have no
effect whatever. They cannot possibly
reach the origin of the trouble; only
blood remedy can do that S. S. S. is
without an equal for blood diseases, and
promptly and permanently cures Eczema
and removes all faint.
Much torture could be avoided if the
first itching symptoms were needed and
course of SIS. taken promptly, as APP
parently insignificant skin irritations
usually develop into the worst form
of Eczema unless properly treated.
1t matters not what other treatment
has been tried in vain, S. S. S. always
gets at the seat of the disease, and
forces it out.
Mr.. William Armstrong, an old resi-
dent and highly respected citizen Of
De Pere, Wis, writes on April Ist, 1896.

"The extent of my sufferings can be
appreciated when 1 state that my con-
dition was such that l could not take
my bed, and for three months 1 never

my chair when not moving around. I
was treated by the best of physicians
with no success, and tried all the patent
medicines recommended for Eczema,
without any good results. I then went

results, and then to Mt. Clements, the
celebrated medical resort, where the
treatment partially helped me, bat the

Marriage.

Marriage in particular is said to be
an affair of compromises. One gem
tleman said of his experience:
"My wife and / began our married
life by compromise. She wanted
to 90 to Quebec for our wedding
journey, and wanted to go to Mag
ara, and so we compromised on New
York city, where neither one of us
wanted to go. All our compromises
since have been much of the same
character"
Rather more profitable was the
compromise recorded of another
married couple. In this case the
husband wished to have flannel
sheets, and the wife wished to have
cotton ones. "And So" said the
husband, in relating the arrange.

Because skirts are to carry trim

and cling more closely than ever
about the hips, the fulness being con-
fined Just at the back.
A New York tailor says tn at the
fall taiIOr-made suit will be loaded
with braiding. That he is now busy
inventing designs for braid in the
form Of tabliers across the hips and
for trimming around the bottom OF
the skirts. Cloth skirts with front
panels slashed TO the waist, thickly
braided, with silk ruffles peeping
from the sashes, will be a graceful
pattern that it is expected will i'm
mediately become popular.
Stitfening will be used with great
discrimination. The skirt that is to
be much trimmed will have little Of
it. The founced silk skirts, for
example, will only have stiff foot

gathered skirts of evening and house
gowns that are gagged very low
down over the hips, will hang in

would spoil the graceful effect to

House Nerves.

People of sedentary habits, who
spend all their time indoors, fire.
Quently become morbid, brooding
and irritable. The failure of any
member of the family to reach home
at the usual time brings forth
gloomy foreboding5 of disaster. A
projected journey is overcast by re-
eitals of horrible accidents. Meals
are unsatisfactory; clothes never fit,
no one sympathizes or cOndoles with
the sufferer.
The reasons of house nerves are
legion. Introspectiou is one. Let a
woman sit at home day after day,
week in and week out, and analyze
everything and person within her
ken, naturally follows herself, in

Till the tide of life runs low

If you love me tell me so;
Let me hear the sweet words low!

In the first fresh dawning glow
If you love me, tell me so.

COVER YOUR SORROWS.

The world is a queer old fellow,
As you journey along by his side
You had better conceal any trouble you
feel,
If you want to tickle his pride.
No matter how heavy your burden
Don't tell him about it pray;
He will only grow colder and shrug his
shoulder
And hurricdly walk away.
But carefully cover your sorrow,
And the world will be your friend,
II only you'll bury your woes and be
merry
He'll cling to you close to the end.
Don't ask him to lift one finger
To tighten your burden, because
He never will share it; but silently
bear it
And he will be loud with applause.
The world is vain old fellow:
You must laugh at his sallies of wit,
No matter how brutal, remonstrance is
futile,
And frowns will not change him one
whit.
And since YOU must journey together
Down paths where all mortal feet go,
Why, life holds more SAVIOR to keep in
his favor
For he an unmercful foe.

Notes.


Chiffon and silk muslin sashes are
being made up of every variety of
color and shade.
Bodices of embroidered silk mus
lin, the embroidery done in brilliant
colors, are among the novelties.
The very latest skirt to wear with
separate waists is made of smooth
grey cloth.
Red velvet for stock and belt is
quite fashionable, and is generally
becoming.
Black lace is now used to trim
white muslin gowns, and the new
mode is considered quite smart.
The Elton jacket suit should hold
first place in every woman's ward
robe.
There is great variety in the front
designs of bodices, blouse being the
popular form.
Some of the new house gowns have
double sleeves, a sheath sleeve un-
derneath, and over this full one
hanging loosely down.
All white gowns are very stylish
now for all kinds of functions.
Sleeves with tucked uppers are
much affected for fancy thin gowns
and the sleeves are considered hand
sOmer when the tucks are gradua-
ted. These graduated tucks have
created a furOre. They are used for
everything.
Very dainty carriage and evening
wraps are made of cashmere in white
or verp pale shades, in shawl fash

drapery. The back falls in a square

Few women value and appreciate
the necessity of night toilet. The
hair should have the "hundred
strokes" of the brush, the teeth
careful attention, the mouth well
rinsed with myrrh and water, and
the hands carefully washed and
anointed with cold cream, which
will keep them soft and white.
Night is the time to take a warm
bath, and this is also an aid to sleep,
for the steaming and rubbing pro-
duce fatigue. Night is also the
proper time to take facial steam
bath, after which a little cold cream
should be applied. The preparation
known as milk weed cream is best
for this purpose.

Hints of the Cominp Styles.

A good deal of attention has been
paid to the new gowns of serge and
cashmere. These are all trimmed,
and trimmed Il great deal, but there
is no suggestion of "hufiiness' about
them. Flat bands, and folds, and
braids are disposed over very
cleverly and though many of the
smartest have triple skirts, these
are cut in such a manner as to pro-
duce fiat effect. All bOdices are
somewhat elaborate and the sleeves
that.are perfectly plain at the top
