When child I had a very severe at-
tack of Diphtheria, which came near prov
ing fatal Upon recovery the glands Of the
neck were very much enlarged, and after
the free use of iodine, the right one was
reduced to its normal size, but the left
one continued to grow-very slowly at
first, until it was about the size of goose
egg, which began to press on the wind
pipe, causing difficult breathing, and be-
came very painful. An incision was made
and a large quantity of pus discharged.
The gland was removed, or as much as
could with safety be taken out. For ten
years wore a little piece of cloth about an
inch long in my neck to keep the place
open. During this time had to have it
cut open by the doctor every time took
cold or the opening clogged. In the Spring
or early Summer Of 1884 was persuaded
by my wife to use S. S. S., which I did,
strictly in accordance with directions. I
took twenty-six large bottles, and was en-
tirely cured, for have not suffered since
that time. B. S.RAcLANp.

THE SMART FIGURE.
An Eject of Height sad sfendernes,
In Spite OF full Skirts.
AMY VARNUM.

Al Eject of Height sad sfenderness
In Spite OF full Skirts.
Despite the fullness of the fashion
able skirt the following promises to be
q season for slender women. The full,
unlined skirt is made OF material that
Grapes in graceful. clinging lines. The
hips must be suppressed as much as
possible in the up to date figure. The
fullness of the skirt can be made to be-
gin below them.
However broad the shoulders, the
curved, dropping line from neck to ell
bow must be achieved in some fashion
if one is to be "smartly" dressed.
A blouse or waist that illustrates all
the necessary points of style, but is
more on the neat and practical order
than many, is shown in the cut 1t
was designed as a cloth bodice to be
worn with cloth skirts whose very elab-
crate lace trimmed bodices were not
suitable for simple occasions. AS will
be noticed, everything about 1t droops.
This one, being of cloth, is cut with as
little fullness as possible and is COM
posed of two materials only, the cloth
and the velours mousseline that forms
the slashings In the bodice and inside
the sleeves.
Such a blouse adapts itself with a
certain harmony to almost any skirt
and does not manifest that aloofness
from the rest of the costume which the
separate bodice Is apt to assume.
An indication of what is to be the up
to date figure is found in the following
from one of the fashion journals:
1--WE are suffering a relapse from the
nominal corset, which was really little
more than a girdle. and are now laced
into corsets resembling coat of mail.
so heavily are they boned and steel
braced. They reach from the bust to
a point well below the hip line, and the
newest models are laced down each
side of the front steels instead of in
