owes his Life to a Nelghbor,s kindness

Mr.. d. p. Daugherty, well
known throughout Mercer and
Sumner counties, w. Va, most
likely owes his life to the kind
ness of neighbor. He was al
most hopelessly afflicted with
diarrhoea; was attended by two
physicians who gave him little,
if any, relief, when q neighbor
learning of his serious condition
bought him a bottle of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoa Remedy, which cured him
in less than twenty-four hours.

FRILLS OF FASHION.
New Notions I'm Dressy Details -
Charming summer Garments,
Dust Coats, Etc.

The Brittany hat is well-liked mod
Il. In shape it is perfectly round, slop-
ing down slightly in front and deep in
the back, with the crown in the form OF
q low bowl, says the Brooklyn Eagle.
The dressiest accompaniment for the
white shirt waist suit is the belt of white
kid. The kid has the softness of a fine
glove, and the belt, which is three to
i've inches high, is hemmed at the edges
and lined with taffets or muslin.
Beaded robes are promised considera-
BILE vogue next fall. Jet, iridescent and
opalescent effects will alike be favored.
Pretty little knitted shawls shaped to
the shoulders are shown in all the pastel
colorings.
A color that Is very popular is green
and there is the new foliage green, which
is little lighter than leaf green. 1t

They are making some of the most
charming garments or coarse lace these
Jays, and one Of these is the new three
quarter coat, which is all of lace, very
heavy, very open, of the variety called
furniture lace. It is the kind that was
formerly used for lace curtains
Three-quarter coats are made out OF
this lace and are fitted to the hips. They
are belted with ribbon belt, which is
run through the lace A coat like this
goes well with anything, though it is
meant specially for dressy occasions. It
need not be necessarily expensive, for
coarse lace IS not the most costly vari-
ETY. Of lace, hut it should fit we'll and
should be nicely shaped to the figure at
he waist line
One of the newest of automobile coats
for the summer girl who wants to be pre-
pared for eIiy emergency is in white
linen. three-quarter length, and belted
with red leather The belt is run through
little straps of white ribbon, which are
sewed to the coat on the outside. With
this there is neat little white linen
hat with hood just large enough to in
close the hair. A white satin ribbon ties
under the chin, giving the hat piquan-
~ most becoming OF course, white
linen dust coat has one drawback in
that it soils in day but this is thing
for which one must be prepared in this
