Surgeon O,ReiIly,s Malnrln Cur,.

Colonel O'Reilly of the army, sur
geon-in-chief at Fortress Monroe, has
been successful in his treatment of
soldiers who have returned from Cuba
and the Philippine Islands saturated
with malarial poison. Several officers
who suffered from fevers during the
Santiago campaign have had periodi-
cal returns of those complaints. They
come about once in three or four
months, each time with increasing
severity, but DR.. O'Reilly, with sim
pie treatment. has given most OF them
permanent relief.
He takes a drop of blood from one
ear of the patient, and il, under a
microscope, he discovers malaria,
germs, he prescribes Fowler's solution
OF arsenic in such doses ms the micro
scopic examinations suggest, tho
average being five drops three times
a day after each meal. If the eyes OF
the patient water the dose is reduced.
After two weeks of this treatment the
blood is examined again and usually
found entirely free from malarial
germs. II not, the treatment is con-
tinued.--Chicago Record.

Double sleeve" is another name for
it. All the smart challies aud foulards
boast this arm covering, which, of the
foulard or challie, ends at the elbow,
while underneath falls a scant fluff of
white muslin net or lace, its fulness
gathered into a close band at the
wrist. The first figure of the cut, re.
produced from the New York Even
ing Sun, shows pretty frock in mot
tied foulard having undersleeves and
yoke in transparent net. Embroidery
over velvet trims the foulard, while
the left side of the bodice is fastened
with silver buttons and clasps. The
other cut shows a simpler undersleeve
model, but one equally effective. The
turn-back finish of the upper sleeve is
known as the puritan cuff"

society belle still rides in desultory
fashion and still keeps correct and
up-to-date wheeling costume in good
order in her wardrobe. There is not
much difference between the bicycle
costume as prescribed by fashion now
and that worn for golfng, only the
golf skirt is little longer. AS wom-
en- are riding in much longer skirts
at the present time the majority of
them make the one costume do for
both.
Another thing, the rainy day or
short skirt is so much the vogue,
even for clear days, that several lind
place among ma bellies gowns.
The Two new ideas shown in the large
cut will serve equally well as bicycle,
golf, outing or rainy-day gowns. and
are reproduced from Harper's Bazaar.
The sIde-pleated shirt waist of the
first one is most attractive model
for any shirt-waist, either OF wash
goods or silk, for utility or dressier
wear. The front has n centre stitched
band and three deep outward-turning
pleats from shoulder to waist. The
back is similar, only with box -pleat
in the centre. The design of the skirt,
with its unusual yoke effect, is es-
pecially suited to heavy galatea pique
or very light weight two-toned cloth.
This yoke is quite fashionable with
New York women, and gives quite a
trimmed appearance to an otherwise
plain skirt.
The salient feature of the brown
covert cloth one, trimmed with
stitched bands, shown at the right,
is its charmingly unique little jacket
This is belted in at the back, and
fashions autocrats aver it is sure to be
popular, as it is so practicable, besides
looking we'll either in wash goods or
