Diet for Nervous Women.

An entire milk diet is an excellent thing
for the woman who is troubled with insom-
mia. 1t is also good for the one who is so
nervous that when she does sleep she has
the sensation of falling and wakes with
terrific start. When these conditions exist
it is well to subsist on milk alone for quite
period.
A grown woman should take a pint of
milk at a meal, but to keep up her strength
she should take four meals a day instead
of the usual three. People with weakened
nerves require larger quantity of water
than those whose nerves and brains are
strong. Water aids the digestion of food
by making it soluble, and seems to have
direct tonic effect.
Fish of all kinds is an excellent food for
women who are suffering from nerves.
while, as a rule, salt meats should be
avoided. Good bread, sweet butter and
lean meat are the best food for the nerv-
Gus. Eggs may be sparingly partaken of,
but they should be thoroughly we'll cooked.
The common opinion that-raw or underdone
eggs are good for weak or i'll people is an
erroneous one.

satin girdle and a white lace capeline ana
punches of La France roses. Marquise de

guipure, a capeline of white straw with
large white peonies and ribbons of the

Among some hats which have just seen
are a red and white straw, lined with red;
another in burnt straw shade, with big
chou of linon de sole, which is very light
and not easily crushed; a number of ba-

the jaconet that droops over the brim.
Most fascinating of all are the soft plated

dainty hat was in black tulle, WITH black
