Abraham Lincoln,s Prescription.

There Is a story, still current I'm. Illinois,
which says that an old farmer friend OF
President Lincoln, who used to CORE
spond with him, complained on one &C.
cssion of his poor health. He received
the following reply, which Is quoted In
Illinois as "LincoIn's prescription, says
Success. ado not worry. Eat three
square meals day. Say your prayers.
Think OF your wife. Be courteous to
your creditors. Keep your digestion
good. Steer clear of oiiiousness. Exer-
else. Go slow and go easy. Maybe there
are other things that your especial case
requires to make you happy; bat, my dear
friend, these, | reckon, will give you a
good iift."
This advice Is doubtless applicable in
Its entirety to many Americans in every
state in the Union to-day. There are
parts of 1t which apply to Us generally
as nation. "Do not worry. Keep your
digestion good. Go slow and go easy"
1t would be difficult to find an American
who has not something to amend on these
points. Worry and dyspepsia have as
sumed the proportions OF national evils,
and they are both more or less the results
OF undue haste.
There is no surer way to promote dys-
pepsis than to be In q constant state OF
hurry, and nothing will so surely give one
the "blues" or incline one to worry and
frettiDg than dyspepsia. Our native in

CHIFFON GOWN.

knotted silk of the same shade and fin ished with collar of mink which fell in stoles down the front. This was lined with a thick creamy white satin. Many of the cloth models-generally those of white or cream-are trimmed with a mixture of silk and chenille fringe of the same shade and ruchings of a slightly deeper tone of velvet These ruchings are a sure sign of the return to the early Victorian styles. They have q smartness all their OWE, but look better on dresses than on mxn- ties.
 For some time past return to the old round umbrella skirts has been no- ticeable These should be worn with tiny pads at the back to give roundness to the waist. The tendency is still to shorten the waist at the back and to lengthen it in front. as is seen by the prominence of the TS30 corsets. This fitness at the back Is almost universal ly becoming.
 The picture shows chiffon gown trimmed with irish lace. The double skirt is gauged from the waist. The sleeves are of tnlle.

WHITE NULL GOWN.

a very summery fabric, rurs taffeta . close second ;n the matter of trim mings.
 A very smart gown seen at the races recently was cf Limerick lace over an accordion plaited white chiffon under dress, the lace held across with ropes of chenille and tiny jet and paste buckles. The hat intended to go with this was of pale green straw. For trimming it had a single mauve ostrich feather.
 Some very smart girls are appearing in fine white silk muslin or mousseline de soie made with big fichu and . much befiounced skirt. After all there are not many ways of making up mus lin. To look well it must be made rather fussily. Severe lines are dis tinctly odt of place.
 Soft, semitransparent fabrics are ideal for summer and evening gowns, and a most charming effect is obtained by using two or three harmonious colors in tulle or chiffon over a founda ton of pale satin- A soft pink satin. first yelled with pinkish gray chiffon and again with a silvery gray. gives misty pastel effect which is both dainty and uncommon. A dainty gown of sheer white null trimmed with lace is shown in the Il mstration. JUDIC CHOLLET.
