adopted by an organization which has for

has clusters of very fine stripes, In which
careful examination showed Roman coli
ors, while view from few feet distant
gave one the impression that the sflk was
a combination of blue and duh green. This
was made with full skirt trimmed on the
bottom with lace and pleated boiero edged
with lace motifs, lace vest and long lace
cuffs. While the bolero seemed to be n
separate part of the costume, it was really
all one piece with the lace vest and urder-
bodice.
II accordion pleating is to De tn, chief
feature of the gown. then no preeter ana
more novel design could be chosen than the
one here portrayed 1t evidences tI.e near
est approach to the overskirt that we have
cared to copy so far. There Is L double ter
effect in the skirt and both parts ars done
in fine fan accordion pleats. At the waist
the upper skirt is shirred in shaped yoke
formed by six rows of gathers. Then the
under rufffe or tier is attached to the taffcta
lining at the knees. This is somewhat fuller
than the other and is trimmed on the edge
with strip of the silk hemmed on both
sides and shirred through the center to
make very fluffy ruche.
There is crescent shaped lace motif
outlining the lower edge of the other skirt
section The tips of the crescents are placed
together in such a way that they form
rather shallow scallops. After each has
been put on very carefully by hand the silk
look to the fiounce.
An exceedingly simple bodice completes
this delightful model. 1t is. indeed, so
simple in design that 1t might we'll be styled
girlsh A scalloped yoke of thin lace comes
well over the shoulders and forms two
downward curves in front. The smart stock
seems to be an integral part of the yoke
and the rim has tiny velvet band to give
bit of contrast in fabrics. Upon this oddly
designed yoke the white silk is gathered
just full enough to let it be brought into
the belt without the tabooed pouch. The
belt. by the way. is very plain little affair
of white satin crushed into the width of an
inch and a half or so.
A full puff of the silk falls from the
rounded sections of the yoke that extend
over the shoulders. Then they are gath
cred up to the lining and serve to conceal
the top of wide accordion-pleated 1ounce
of the silk which is trimmed with a smaller
ruching like that on the foot of the skirt.
There is a deep tight cuff of the same lace

Sick
Headache

When your head aches, there is q
storm in the nervous system, CEN
tering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain in
the head, and the turbulent nerve
current sent to the stomach causes
nausea, Vomiting.
This is sick headache, and is dan
gerous, as frequent and prolonged
attacks weaken the brain, resulting
in loss of memory, inflammation,
epilepsy, fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritated, ach-
ing condition by taking DR.. Miles
Anti-Pain Pills.
They stop the pain by soothing,
Strengthening and relieving the ten
sion upon the nerves-not by par
alyzing them, as do most headache
remedies.
DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills do not
contain opium, morphine, choral,
cocaine or similar drugs.
''Sick headache Is hereditary in my family. My
father suffered great deal. and for many years
/ have had spells that were so severe that I was

The majority of the new washable silk
gowns are made of plainly woven fabric,
but as the new models make their appear
ance from time to time it is noticed that
the tendency to cross-barred and striped
effects grows constantly. The patterns are
rather quaint and the stripes or figures are
so nearly invisible that at little distance
only the general effect is seen.

dots and loZenges are woven in a few of

Broughton Place Church, Edinburgh, when
Dr. John Browns father was pastor there.
Dr. Brown, it is scarcely necessary to add,
was the author Of Marjorie Fleming and
"Rab and His Friends" the best child
story and the best dog story ever written.
At that time the crowds and the poor
ventilation made fainting a common occur
renee in Broughton place, especially among
the young servant girls. The young doctor
had taught Jeems the philosophy of faint
ing fits, and had instructed him especially
as to the proprlety of laying the sufferers
quite fiat on the floor of the lobby, with
the head as low as the rest of the body
As many of these cases were owing to what
Jeems called that bitter yerkin' of their
bodices-in other words, tight Iacing--he

the victims by cutting their stayiaces.

One day young women who had tainted

to the doctor with his open gully {knife)

Ball. held at the Royal Palace Hotel Ken

Every one who attended the ball repre-
sented some character from the pages of
the famous novels, but the chief interest
conferred in the party tfat included nearly
a dozen bearers of the famous name. The
novelist's grandchildren represented the
chief characters in 1.-The Old Curiosity
Shop" and they included Little Nell, Mrs.
farley and the little Warehouses. The
Dickens family group danced Sir Roger
de Coyerly together.
Hostesses made up parties in which the
characters were chosen from one novel.

cations for pardons were considered, and
there were a number of protests in some
cases. Several appointments of minor posi-
lions were announced by the governor to-
day, and there was meeting of the board
of control over which he presided. A
meeting of the commission to take action
upon the restoration of the old senate
chamber was held. and the plans of work
were taken under advisement.
The governor today issued his proclama-
ton for arbor and highway day. which falls
this year on April II. The day will be
feelingly observed In all the schools OF the
