How to prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneumonia
always results from cold or from an at
tack OF lagrippe. During the epidemic
of 'agrippe ew years ago when SO
many cases resulted in pneumonia, it
was observed that the attack was never
followed by that disease when Chamber.
lain's Cough Remedy was used. It
counteracts any tendency If ia cold or la
grippe to result in that dangerous dis
ease. It is the best remedy in the world
for bad colds and laerippe. Every bot
tie warranted. For sa e by T. R. Shaw.

Some Fresh Fancies In Gnrniture fe :
Winter Costumes
MMffs, Etc.


Many of the skirts fit the figure close
y to the knee. then flare out to the
foot. They still continue long, even
for the street, and for the house have
4 decided train. Skirts that flare are
stiffened nine inches deep with hair
cloth or crinoline.
Low-necked and short-sleeved bod
ices are more than ever fashionable for
receptions and dinners this winter. A
charming model for a dinner waist is
made of black satin duchesse elaborate
y decorated with jet passementerie.
fon over light green satin, and belt
Of the satin held by jet buckle encir-
cles the waist. The sleeves are mousque
taire, and the waists made pompadour
back and front.
Another evening waist is made OF
red taffeta glace and beautifully
trimmed with black lace in the bow
knot design. 1t has a square bertha
edged with plating of black chiffon,
and the belt which encircles the waist
is of jet over red taffeta.
Mauve and rose form a dainty combi-
nation for evening gowns and milli-
merry. 1t shows off particularly wellin
gown of mauve tulle over founda-
tion of rose-colored satin.
Shirt waists are made of velvet, fancy
plaided faille with satin bars of con-
trasting color, corduroy, English vel
vetten, plain, striped or polka-dotted
silk; silk and wool fancies, Roman
striped satins and pretty silks are much
famed for dressy uses. While broad
cloth is much used for bridesmaid s
gowns this season.
Muffs of velvet matching the hat and
pelerine will be very fashionably worn
with any stylish street costume. The
muffs are made round or fiat and are
moderately large. The popular glove
for daytime wear is biscuit color, and in
four lengths these gloves have
either self-stitching or stitching in
black or white.
The bowknOt decoration is in high
favor. Bow knots made of lace, braid
or ribbon adorn basques, costumes and
even coats. Silk and satin petticoats
are elaborately trimmed with ruching
CT ribbon of different widths. Heavy
satins in violet, yellow, burnt orange
and red are used for Innings on fur coats,
jackets and muffs Shoulder capes and
muffs of gray fox fur are very fash
ionable this winter. Many of the small
leg-of-mutton and chatelaine sleeves on
English and French gowns, both day
ard evening wear, are tucked in inch
wide tucks at the top of the sleeve or its
diminutive puff. These tucks run
around, not up and down the puff, and
are from three to five in number. They
are made before the sleeves are shaped,
or even lined. and the thinnest lining
silk is used.-Ladies' World.

CONCERNING VENTILATION.
Every Room in the House should He
Thoroughly Aired Every
Day.

The necessity of pure air and plenty
of it is known to everyone, yet is ig-
nored completely by many in their
mode of life. Anyone who has ever had
an aquarium knows what will happen
to the fish if the water is not changed
frequently: yet few stop to think that
the same fate will be theirs il they do
not take equal care to freshen the air
they breathe.
In summer there is comparatively
little danger of suffering from impure
air in the house, for desire to keep
cool impels us to open the windows.
But in winter all doors and windows
are tightly closed, and the slightest
breath of air is Stunned as if it brought
death instead of life.
The necessity of ventilation, however,
is greater than ever in cold weather, for
stoves and lights use up great deal
of the oxygen we need and fill the rooms
with poisonous carbonic acid gas. For
tunately the sashes of the windows sell
dom fit absolutely, and there are cracks
under the doors and keyholes in them,
so that we seldom succeed in sealing
up our rooms as hermetically as we
wish. and therefore do not make our
selves as i'll as we deserve.
But this is not enough, and every
room in the house should be aired morn
ing and evening, even in the coolest
weathersby opening the windows wide
and letting the air blow through. \
room will soon warm up again after
such a cleansing, and, moreover, the
air does not need to be SO hot to feel
comfortable when it is fresh as it does
when it is stale and charged with i'm
purities.
In addition 10 this there ought in
every living-room and sleeping-room to
be some provision for constant renewal
of the air. This can be effected easily
by raising the lower window sash two
inches and filing the space between I,
ard the sill with a board. The air then
filters through between the two sashes
without creating the draught which we
are taught to dread. Another and bet.
ter way is to lower the upper sash
slightly, filing the gap so made with I
close wire net.
An open fireplace in room is a good
help to ventilation, for there is almost
always an upward current in the chin
pey, even if there is no fire in the CRATE
and in this way much Of the bad air i.

Index OF Civilization.

The test for determining the civiliza-
ton of a country. so far as this relates
to its industries, is the amount of iron
annually consumed by its people. The
American and the English people are
said to be the largest consumers of this
material, using it each year to the per
capita amount of about 800 pounds. A
few years ago the English per capita
consumption was larger than ours, but
recently we have forged ahead in this
respect, so that at the present time it is
probable that, relatively, we use some
what more than our English cousins,
while actually our consumption is
much larger because of our greater
population. But when these two ma
tions are taken out of the list of con-
sumers a sharp decline takes place, as
NAV be realized when it is said that
the worlds consumption is estimated
to run under, rather than over, 40
pounds per capita. In South America
the average is less than ten pounds per
capita, and in China and Central Asia
it is probably less than a pOusd per
capita, although the present construc-
ton of a railway system through ST.
IBERIA by the Russian government has
added greatly to the apparent consump-
ton of that district.-Boston Herald.

learn that practical steps are about
to be taken by the authorities to pro-
mote the emigration to the colonies of
French women. a year or two ago this
matter was the object of private initia-
tive, but the results of number of pub
lie meetings and an energetic newspa-
per campaign seem TO have been wholly
negative. The French colonist contin-
res to complain that it. is almost i'm
possible for him to find a wife Of his
own race unless he makes the journey
home for the purpose, an eNpedient
that is often impracticable for colonistS
of the poorer class. This state of things
has more especially attracted the at
teution of Gen. Gallieni in Madagascar,
and the contemplated action of the gov
ernment is largely due, l understand,
to his urgent representations.
The projected scheme is TO take the
shape of a central emigration office for
women, to be installed in Paris un-
der the auspices of the ministry of
the colonies. This central institution
will open a number of branch offices
throughout the country in the agri-
cultural districts as well as in the
towns. In this way an effort will be
made to bring home the beauties of
emigration and the eligibility of
colonial husbands to suitable young
women. Something more will be done
for them, however, than to give them
well-meant, if not quite disinterested,
advice. Approved candidates for eX-
patriatiOn will be provided with a trous-
Seau and with a small sum of money
to enable them to live for a time after
landing. The state is also to give them
free passage, and will aid them to
find employment. Whether it will car
ry its solicitude to the extent of pro-
curing them introductions to marriage
able young men is not stated. Each
trouSseau is to cost about c -, and
some e is to be allowed as pocket
money. To begin with, an annual ex-
penditure is contemplated of 100 OOOf
4,O00), a sum which will endow the
colonies with 200 presumably willing
brides.-Pall Mall Gazette.
