"Preci.ely n. Advertised.

Soon after one of the largest American
railways had been opened a traveller noticed
marked disregard for punctuality on the
part of the officials, but he was interested
in the country and made no. complaint AT
last the terminus was reached There he
met beaming official of the company, who,
pulling out his watch, said:
just look and see what time you make
it, will you please"
1T wants ten minutes to one, said the
traveller, little puzzled
Yes, sir, 1880 exactly, and that's the
hour she's timed to arrive! How's that for
promptness? Crossing the continent, al
most 5000 miles, and getting here at II so
o'clock precisely as advertised!''
i can't deny that, you know" said the
traveller; chow many days were you late2"
ooh, two or three, perhaps, but we struck
the coast at l2:50!"-St Louis Republic.

disks; blue tailor mades piped with
scarlet
To tell the truth, it looked very pref
ty, this blue and scarlet combination,
vivid and yet not what would be called
startling. In most cases it was be-
coming to the girl with the summer
glow still on her cheeks, added to
her healthy, outdoor appearance.
The bright color is applied in various
ways; scarlet stitching is much en-
ployed; bands and straps of scarlet
velvet are used with a free hand; the
buttons may be the only bit of red
on the costume; a rudy stripe may
be woven in the goods or red embroid-
cry may ornament the material. One
thing should be avoided, and that is
the use of very much red; little more
than enough, and the thing is garish,
cheap.
While scarlet is the red used with
blue, there is new red, with a grayish
tinge that is to be very fashionable
this year when much of the gay-hued
material is required. 1t is a delicious
shade, very soft, and not trying to the
wearer.
Red and white are liked in combina-
ton for trimming blue gowns, as is
also a combination of orange, black
and white
Wool braid trimming on wool gowns
is much to the fore, black and white
braid being especially popular. On
the white gowns white silk braid is
employed.

In 1899 The Sangerlust celebrated its
fiftieth anniversary with large cele-
bration in New York City. The follow
ing is his testimony:
about two years ago I caught Sc

settled into catarrh of the bronchial
tubes, and so affected my voice that I
was obliged to cancel my engagements.
In distress was advised to try Peruna,
and although 1 had never used patent
medicine before, sent for bottle.
Words but lily describe my surprise
to find that within a few days I was
greatly relieved, and within three
weeks 1 was entirely recovered. am
never without it now, and take an oc-
casional dose when 1 feel run down."

MNS5T TO the tea gown as are
EMAV their English sisters. Why,
we do not know, for it is
such pretty, becoming
costume as well as a comfortable one.
Also it is economical, as it can be made
OF odds and ends, half dozen different
materials being permissible.
The tea gomn pictured is of soft gray
wool, the underskirt of pink or old rose
silk. the fiouncings of lace. 1t is made
clinging to below the knees, and then
there is considerable fare at the
bottom. For both underskirt and
gown, old material can be employed,
and also old lace. Care should be taken
to have all well cleaned, as there is
nothing attractive about soiled fnery.
III desired, the low neck may be filed
in with lace corresponding to the
founces. That the gown be not too
limp, the petticoat worn with it should
be quite full. The frills on the petit
coat need not be of the same color a
the foundation, the fancier and more
frivolous these lounging robes are the
better.
The English woman does not feel it
at all obligatory that she wear her
tea gown only in the privacy of her
own room; she has the pretty thing de-
signed for show, and show it she does.
1t is necessary part of her wardrobe
when visiting at country houses, and a
decorative part of the scene about the
tea table when the men come in from
their outdoor jaunts. Over here, we
consider the tea gown rather desha-
bile, and hesitate to appear in it out
side the boudoir. Of course there is
no question of propriety, i. is all a
matter of custom. And, surely, what
is given countenance by the great So
clal leaders of England, we dare not
presume to criticise.
