FASHION NOTES.
srssh Esvslsiss In Dress Ornanenea-
Ties - ths Censing

A dress Of white brosdcloth has per
hctly plain nodded waist. The collar
., Of the material covered thickly with
white and gold beads in an arsbesque
iesign. The sleeves At the arms rather
mugly, and have epaulets Of the cloth
ined with white satin and edged with
he beaded garniturc to match the col
lar. The skirt Is plain, with the excep-
Hon Of the arabesque embroidery down
hther ode of the front breadth and
nosaing IL at the lower edge. From the
waist line down either seam a trimming
70 match extends for ten inches; the
Yafnitura II very fine and at little dis
lance resembles brocading more than
bead embroidery. The back Of the skirt
h full. and over 1t falls long tabs Of the
:loth, lined with satin, and embroidered
to match the rest of the costume.
Among the novelties In dressy AK
ms" Of which young ladies' are SO fond,
are bolero jackets, deliberately embroid-
cred and braided, and long, tab-shaped
sections to decorate either side of the
slxirt. These sections may be made the
hull length of the skirt, and arranged
upon the edge Of the breadth back of
The front, or they may be made shorter
and placed Immediately over the seams.
One dress has three pieces, one placed
directly down the front, and the others
ON the side seams.
II one objects to wearing the old
time basque or jacket, with the full rip
pie skirt, it is very easy to take ont the
superfiuous cloth. Rip the seams, put
the garment on over the costume with
which 1t Is most likely to be worn,
smooth 1t down into perfectly natural
shape, then fold or pin the skirt. SO that
|tt almost Ats the figure. Whether the
geams are sewed up to make round
skirt, or whether the sections are cut
into points, scallops or tabs, is matter
Of taste for the owner to decide.
A princess dress with gimp is one Of
the most attractive styles for young
ladies'. It is economical and becoming,
and in warm weather exceedingly COM
Portable, as well as dainty. Gimps of

thicker fabrics, or Of wash silk. may be
used. Where one perspires freely. 1t is
a comfort be the possessor Of style
of dress that admits OF so much fresh
ness.
Among the most beautiful OF summer
material are the nuns veilings that
come in qualities SO sheer, fine and light
that it is matter of wcnder how heavy
machinery cnn be SO gnuged and grad
uated as to weave such delicate fabrics

The blouse has lost none of its popu
larity. 1t shows rather less Of a ten

have slightly longer skirts than those
heretofore worn.
Some Of the new jackets are quite
close-fitting, and double-breasted. They

The readers OF this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's s
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease. requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the, foundation
strength by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have 20 much faith in its cura-
tive powers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

After that, to use slang, kicked my
self soundly, and in 20 minutes was
dogging the footsteps OF the distin-
guished stranger Of whom spoke to
you."
But don't you think Mrs. Walters
had anything to do with the murder 2"
asked Welsh.
Nothing at all. Here It is in nut
shell: She will be mother in about
three months. In her condition she is
always queerly imaginative and deceit
full. She lost a child a year ago in child
birth, and for several months before
it was born she almost ran her family
wild with her strange fancies. She has
been reading sensational literature for
long time, and when that murder oc-
CURED and ner father offered reward
for the capture OF the criminal 1t struck
her that the murderer would be apt to
resent it. She tried to rouse the fears
OF her father and husband on this line,
but. as they failed to see it her way,
she determined to make them do SO.
She invented the yarn about having
seen man on the lawn the night she
astonished them by going to the gate
with her husbands revolver, and, fol-
lowing the murlerer's iden of using
typewriter, she wrote the threatening
letter TO her father and enjoyed the ex-
citement II caused. Later. fearing that
some one would see through her little
deception. she determined to make the
circumstances more convincing. The
detective stories she had read gave her
the idea Of pretending to be shot at.
As I have shown you, she dampencd
the clay with the watering can. made
the footinarks by wearing her fathers
slippers. shot hole through her sleeve,
hid the revolver in the grass and has
had lot of fun out of our careful in
vestigations. II she had dreamt, how
ever, that she herself would be suspect
ed of that murder she would have shown
the white feather long ago"
What are you going TO do now?"
asked Welsh. completely crestfallen.
II am on quite another line. and am
at standstill. hardly know what
shall do"
Can aid you in any way?''
Il think not. now. Ishall come round
as soon as | Hnd out anything tan

HOUSEHOLD PLUMBING.
How to Detect the Presence Of sew-
er Gas and Clean
the Sink.

1t Is an excellent plan TO TEST pump
ing In the spring and to thoroughly
clean out all waste pipes with strong
solution of chloride OF lime or common
copperas. II chloride of lime is used
purchase it Of trustworthy druggist,
as there is cheap quality often sold,
which is of little value as disinfectant.
The waste pipe of the sink is the one
most likely 10 be clogged up with
grease, and when this grease Is filed
with bits of animal and vegetable waste
from the sink 1t is a menace to the
health of the household. Five cents'
worth OF copperas dissolved in a wooden
phil in boiling water forms an excellent
disinfectant for wastepipes. Dip .
whisk broom in 1t and scrub out all
parts of the sink and then rinse It on
carefully, as it will corrode iron or any
metal. Let the solution OF copperas run
down the wastepipe Of the sink as quick
ly as possible SO as to wash out its en-.
tire surface, and then pour down boil
ing water. If the sink is cloggcd with
grease, it may be necessary to use a
strong solution Of potash first, and then
follow 1t with the copperas. The pep
permint test is very simple one. Mix
an ounce of oil of peppermint in pail
Of hot water, and pour 1t slowly down
the wastepipe at the highest point
where it opens in the house. Take great
care not to touch the water SO as to
carry the odor in this way. 1t is better
for some one who has not been near
the peppermint to make the test, which
Il to examine all other openings of the
waste, and notice II any odor Of oil Of
peppermint escapes from them. II
there is any odor sewer gas would
slso escape.-N. Y. Tribune.
