The Newest Fashions.

|
Light colors of all kinds are fash
ionable.
The old-fashioned blond lace with a
pattern scattered over it is revived
again for wells.
White gloves, except with black and
white costumes, arenot worn so much
as the varied tints of fawn, biscuit,
nickel gray, cream, lilac and green
ish gray.
Belts are essential features Of all
the new gowns, which means thatmost
all blouses will be worn outside of the
skirts, the belts being a portion of
the bodice.
Lace founcings of Renaissance and
Venetian, as well as other kinds Of
lace, come all ready shaped in the
circular form, fitting the cut of the
skirt perfectly.
Silk skirts with silk jersey yoke
tops which cling closely to the figure
are one OF She desirable novelties.
And then there are China silk waists
in all colors prettily trimmed with
lace.
In the new effects of old styles is 3
knife:plaited black silk skirt, with
little short apron ogerskirt, rounding
up short at the waist in the back, and
trimmed with application of black lace
around the edge.
Thin fabrics of all kinds Will be
fashionable, such as veilings and ere
pons. The most desirable thin stufs
have finely embroidered dots and fg-
ures, and the mixtures OF silk and
wool are most attractive.
Khaki letter paper is the latest, and
being linen, it might be made out of
the very material made into uniforms,
from its appearance. This may not
mean that it is altogether beautiful,
but It means something, and a great
many people will find it indispens-
able.
Lace, tulle, chiffon and lace straw
are prominent features of the new
Toques made entirely of
lace over chiffon and completed with
a bow of black velvet or bunch of
flowers are among the prettiest hats
in sight. Pure white satin, finished
straws, almost transparent, are very
much in evidence.
Yellow chrysanthemums are the
fad in millinery. Chrysanthe-
NUNS of every shade and color, iR-
deed, are popular, even those Of black
silk petals. Flexible straw braid and
horsehair lace are among the novelties
for trimming, and are combined with 1
mousseline de sole, velvet or tullek
with excellent effect.

The Latest in Skirts.

The changes in skirts seem to con-
sist principally in still more careful
close-ftting around the hips and not
in any reduced quantity of material
required. or any waning popularity for
the plaits which are so much in evil
dence just at the moment. The grace
full fare, which adds 50 much to the
beauty Of outline, will be increased
rather than lessened, and plain skirts
evidently will be quite out of the cues
ton. The trained effect appears on
all the models which are as yet being
sent out from Paris.
The newest round skirt from Paris
is either goffered, tucked or gathered
at the waist and over the hips. Other
skirts are tucked at the top and then
accordeon-plaited. This killed cloth
is chic and has the advantage of nov
city, but unless carefully manipulated
it will develop inte au unwieldy gar
ment. If the skirt is plated, the
plated waist will be en- suite. The
plaits on gowns for different wearers,
and in the use of different fabrics, will
be widely diversified from the finest
ACCORDION width to rather broad box
plaits, which graduate to almost a
point at the top on some of the French
skirts, and widen proportionately at
the top of the waist, tapering grace
fully from the chest to the belt.
A skirt which attracted much atten-
ton on the street the other day con-
sisted of plain back satin skirt foun-
dation, with an applique of chenille
trimming around the foot. But over
it fell an oYerskirt of blue plaid Irish

Handsome New Gowns.

Some of the prettiest new gowns
are of black net or grenadine over
black silk, with the oTerdress pro-
fusely ruf1ed. The rufles number
from three to five, and vary in width
from four inches to six. They are
applied either straight around the
skirt or curving slightly upward to
the back. A charming effect is pro-
duced by edging the rufles at both
upper and lower edges with narrow
white or colored velvet ribbon, re-
peating the treatment on the waist.

The Question of the Nose.

The Question of the Nose.
lT'79sers should care for the noses
of the chiIdre8aaad5 see that they grow
properly. The soft tissues easae % )
gan can be moulded in early life. 4
thick nose can be made thinner by
regular treatment, such as compress
ing it daily, either with the fingers or
with instruments made with springs
and padded ends so as to clasp the
nose. A clothes-pin has been used
and so adjusted as to bring about the
right amount of compression. Many
noses are wrung and twisted out of
shape by the vigorous use of the hand
kerchief. The delicacy Of the struc-
ture Of the nose is not appreciated.
The shape and size of the nose are
often of a character to cause great dis
tress to the person, and the deformity
for in some instances it really
amounts to this-is borne with forti-
tude and resignation as something
which cannot be remedied. The i'm
portance of the nose IN it's relation to
appearance has been appreciated by
the modern surgeon, and he does not
regard itas beneath his dignity to per-
form operations for the improvement
of this feature. Noses which are nat
urally misshapen and those have been
made so by blows and accidents are
restored, or modified to assume a
proper shape. Usually deformed
nose interferes with the air-passages,
narrowing or blocking them, and the
operation is matter of necessity as
well as of appearance. Persons 90

A Missouri; Girl who Became. Famous
Her Devotion to Children.
"About fifty years ago Mrs. Hearst
was born in Missouri. Her namo was
Phoebe Apperson, and she came Of
good Southern stock, her father Vir-
ginian, her mother South Carolinian.
Her parents and the parents OF Mr..
Hearst were neighbors, and the little
girl, born to the Appersons, was named
for Mrs. Hearst, mother Of the boy
who was to be her husband. Young
Hearst went to California, found sue
cess, and returned to make his Mis-
souri, sweetheart his wife, taking her
to California while she was still in
girlhood. Before she was twenty, her
son was born-the only child she has
had. Mrs. Hearst says she regrets
that she has had only one child. She
would like to have raised family OF
sons and daughters, but as she has
brought up several nieces, and has
educated an. reared the children of
her kith and kin, to say nothing Of
the countless children for whose edu-
cation she has provided IN the kinder
gastens she has endowed, and the
Young geniuses she has schooled in
Europe, she seems to have done her
full personal duty to humanity.
''In appearance Mrs. Hearst is slight
and not tall. She gives an impression
of fragility which is scarcely carried
out by her ceaseless activity. Some
times the nervous exertion tells on
her, and she is forced to delegate
social duties to her assistants. AL
though she employs corps of secre-
taries, Mrs. Hearst always opens her
letters. It is characteristic of the
thoroughness of the woman. And
this, although her mail runs into hun
dreds of letters day. Most of them
are begging letters from people who
do not know that this sympathetic and
charitable woman is too wise to give
except through organized channels.
sMrs. Hearst's hair is pale brown,
lightly silvered with gray. It is parted
at the middle and ripples away at the
side in a Madonna-like coifure very
becoming to Mrs. Hearst's benign ex-
preston and regular features. The
nose is straight, regular and rather
small, the eyes large. full and gray,
and the forehead well shaped and pro-
nounced in intellectually. The lips
are rather thin, delicately curved and
cesorless. here is very little

and says. She is quite sincere in say
ing that she does not see that she is
at all extraordinary. She has not yet
realized that an unselfsh person, de-
voted to the public good, with no
thought of self and no desire for Self
aggrandizement, is the most remark

work, in addition to being a direct
benefit to the people of the State, will

MODERN SLAVERY
| Caused by Weak, Exhausted Stomachs Is
Almost Universal.

You, reader, would not permit your
neighbor to call you out of bed at mid
night and oblige you to walk the pave
ment for two or three hours every
night. You would not allow him to
burn your hand wilfully, nor to cut
your finger off, just to please him.
Why, then, do you allow your stomach
to cause you loss of sleep, nightmare,
and continual suffering? Every dys-
peptic, every sufferer from indigestion,
biliousness, heartburn, waterbrash,
catarrh of the stomach and other stonl-
ach diseases, is a slave to his or her
stomach. There is one way-only one
of breaking the chains of this slav-
cry: That is by using Dodd's Dyspep-
STA Tablets.
These digest the food you have eaten.
They don't need aid from the stomach,
which is therefore given time to rest
and gain strength. They regulate the
bowels, which carry off the waste por-
ton of the food not used in making
blood. Thus the stomach is emptied
and prepared to receive the next meal.
No foul gas can form in the stomach
If you use Dodd's Dyspepsia Tablets,
for the food is digested by them at
once and does not remain in the storn-
ach to rot and cause disease.
