Irish lace is very popular for millin-
cry as well as gown trimmings.
There is a gold embroidery done on
black net in heavy way that suggests
a cross patch, which is in great flavor.
An adorable petticoat lately shown
was made of white gros grain silk
with ruf1es of black velvet ribbon on
a circular founce.
A lovely bathrobe is Of crepe de
chine lined with albatross and made
with a Vatican pleat in the back,
surplice front and "kimono" sleeves.
One of the prettiest novelties Is a
plain gray suede pocketbook. simply
stitched around the edge and fastened
with a buttonhole and jewelled but
ton.
Dainty waists Of India null in pale
tints are worn with the tailor-made
skirts and coats. They are finely
tucked and finished with lace yoke,
belt and cuff.
A dainty gown is made Of white
silk, pale turquoise velvet, and small
silver buttons. the lower half Of the
fronts faced back with narrow shaped
lapels of blue and white spotted vel
vet.
It is said that the surah silk so
fashionable some years ago will return
to favor with the spring: Taffeta has
been used so long that people are
turning to the soft silks in plain 'ef-
fects for variety.
The Raglan overcoat, so fashionable
for men, appears among the tailor gar
ments for women. In fact. there has
never been a season when these coats
have been such a universal feature OF
women's wardrobes.
The ordinary gold tags and spikes
are giving way to the more elaborate
enameled ones. Some are in the shape
of pansles, daisies and violets, others
are conventional scroll designs but
decorated with jewels and enamel.
Turnover collars, to be worn with
silk, satin or velvet stocks, are more
popular than ever. Fine lawn, lace
trimmed and hemstitched. delicate en-
broidery, silk. satin and crepe de
chine are the principal materials
used.
Dark Blue, emerald green and deep
mauve taffetas. with stitched collar
and cravat of white satin; the buttons
of FURNISHED gold and the vest full
gathered mousseline, set into deep
pointed collar band Of tinted guipure,
form a lovely combination.

To Make Clothes Last.

Never in home dressmaking cut any
kind Of wooden goods until they have
been sponged, as cheap material is
often not dampened before it is sold.
TO do this properly at home get an
ironing board or table the width of the
goods and cover with tightly stretched
calico. Spread your cloth wrong side
snp. cover with linen cloth that has
been well wrung out in water and then
press with hot iron the lengthwise
$of the goods. Never let the iron be
still, and the goods must fall evenly
son the floor on to a clean cloth as
Spressed.

and Nerves.
Oh, those nerves of ours, how they
do bother US! Weak. tired. and ner-
vous is the complaint everywhere.
We overwork. dissipate. weaken our
bodies, ruin our health. and finally
break down. Sleeplessness and indi-
gestion are early symptoms. for the
nerves are too exhausted and irritable
to permit rest. and the stomach too
weak to digest food.
1t is nerve and brain exhaustion
which makes the brain tired. and the
arm nerveless. the limbs trembling,
the muscles weak, and the whole body
without strength. energy or ambition.
It Is loss Of nerve and vital power
which is slowly but surely sapplng the
very life itself. and unless help is
sought from the right source. the end
will be shattered nerves, insanity with
scftening Of the brain. nervous pros
tration, heart failure. paralysis or pre-
mature death.
Beware Of such symptoms! A we'll
known druggist, Charles W. Eggles-
Mass, suffered from nervous prostra-
ton and all its terrible symptoms. He
writes the following letter telling what
he knows Is the best way to get well.
Some time ago l was taken with
nervous prostration. suffered terribly
with my nerves and could get no sleep
at all. l became fearfully exhausted,
my stomach vas In terrible condition
from dyspepsia, and could eat hardly
anything.
II used several medicines but with
out benefit. Being in the drug busi-
ness myself. and having hao many
customers speak in the highest terms
OF DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy. I determined to try it.
After taking only one-half bottle l be-
gan to feel much better.
"I slept soundly at night. and my
appetite was splendid. After taking
three bottles. ate three square meals
q day, and had not tho slightest dis
tress. Ny nerves we're perfectly strong
and l felt like a new man, being COM
pletely cured Of all my troubles.
"Out Of the respect bear the manu-
facturers of DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve. remedy, and my desire to
have the sick and suffering made we'll
and strong, l unhesitatingly say that
this medicine is the best and most
wonderful remedy known today.
1T does just what is said Of it, it
cures disease. Don't hesitate to use it,
sufferers, for you will never regret it.
You will be made we'll and strong"
AS this letter is from dealer in
medicine, his word is authority on
such matters. Everybody knows that
DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy is the great leading medicine
Of the age. Take it and you will be
made strong. healthy and vigorous.
Doctors recommend it because it is
the prescription of physician, and
because they know it cures.

cialist in curing nervous and chronic
diseases. discovered it. He can be
consulted free. personally or by letter,

A Modern Motor Car.

Recently a motor carriage has been
introduced in France which combines
many novel features. 1t is normally
propelled solely by an oil engine, but
on hilly ground is helped by an cleo
trio motor. The oil engines works at
constant speed, and when the vehicle
does not absorb all the engine power
the excess drives the motor as dy-
namo and charges the accumulators.
Then the accumulators are used only
occasionally, and they are kept fully
charged. The engine is directly con-
nected to the dynamo motor, which Is
in turn used to start the engine. The
changes in speed are effected mechan-
ically.

The Temperature at Cane Nome.

Such records of the temperature as
were kept at Cape Nome last winter
show rather more than the ordinary
disagreement among thermometers.
According to one Of the most reliable
records the coolest day in the district
last year was Nov. 20, when the tenn
perature fell to IS degrees below zero.
The majority of those who attempted
to keep a record are of the opinion
that the most extreme temperature
was between so and 60 degrees, though
one observer states that he expert

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf, of South
Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady
whose portrait we here publish, wrote
Mrs. Pinkham in January, 1899, saying
her daughter had suffered for two
years with irregular menstruation -
had headache all the time, and pain in
her side, feet swell. and was generally
miserable. Mrs. Pinkham promptly
replied with advice, and under date. OF
March, 1899, the mother writes again
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound cured her daughter OF all
pains and irregularity.

The Evening Couture.

Some decoration is required in the
hair for the evening, but it is generally
simple in character. Young girls are
wearing strings of perals twined in
.and out of loosely massed coils Of
hair, -and both coral and turquoise
tbsads look pretty worn in the same
way. Piquant bows Of satin or velvet
ribbon are worn, placed in front Of the
knot of hair on the top Of the head,
and small spray of flowers, a single
sprig of holly, with its red berries, or
full-blowp rose. al give pretty touch
Ito the coiffure. Older women are
wearing quaint combs and pins in their
hair, thickly jewe1led, or treated with
dart nouveau enamel, which serves
to introduce touch of rich coloring.

Costly Overcoats.

Our wealthy young nabobs think
nothing of paying from $500 to $1,000

Savannah Guards Angered by the

probable that at the next meeting of the
Savannah Volunteer Guards Battalion of
Heavy Artillery the invitation recently
extended to President Roosevelt to be
present at the celebration of the hundredth
anniversary of the battalion, next spring
win be withdrawn.
A movement in that direction is on foot
and a majority of those who extended the
invitation are naturally in favor OF with
drawing it. This is one of the results of
the entertainment at dinner of Booker T.
Washington by Mr.. Roosevelt recently.
The members of companies of Guards
Battalion do not feel now that they can
have the President here. His presence
would, it is feared. keep away from the
celebration many Southerners. and par
ticularly those in Savannah, whose pres
ence is most desired.
The invitation was extended through
Representative Lester shortly after Presi-
dent Roosevelt went into office Mr.. Les
ter called and personally presented the
invitation, which was practically accept

in the South about the time of the cele-
hration, and that he would, in all prob

has been in the city for a day or two,
said, in an interview while here, that he
had not changed his mind in regard to the
army canteen as had been reported. He
said he was as much opposed as ever to
alcoholic drink. He said if railroads,
banks, and other great establishments
could get along without drinking places
the army could.
The men in the army are from
twenty-five and twenty-three years of
age" he said. "a time when they
certainly should not be encouraged in
drinking. 1 believe in removing the
