much below the normal line. This
length of waist line is the more pro-
nounced because of the seams being
traversed with an embroidered design,
done in shades of green, the design be-
ing that of wistaria. A very elaborate
and ornate design of embroidery is
done on the front of the coat. There
is first a trellis made of ribbon bands,
and over this is the wistaria vine. with
foliage and blossoms all done in vary
ing shades of green. On the cuffs,
which finish the half long sleeves, is
the same ribbon trellis and embroid-
cry. The huge pocket flaps are en-
broidered, and large velvet buttons
with an embroidered design are placed
at the end Of the two side seams of the
back. The coat opens in front to re-
veal the long-dtted vest, and this vest
is finished at the neck with a jabot
trimming of white lace edged with
black lace. The same lace makes up
the sleeve frills. The skirt is of circu-
lar cut and perfectly plain, to offset the
very elaborate and picturesque coat.

has been properly applied. The only
preparation which has no deaths fol-

Nor has a single child taken this
Ioathsome disease where it has been
used a sd preventive, proving beyond a
doubt that it is the only preventive
know to the world. Nor is there such
a. thing as a sore throat of any kind
where it is used in the beginning. To
this there are thousands of references
in the city of Topeka alone. The pro-
lessons second discovery is Liquid
Gas, which has been tested in more
than twenty cases for the cure OF Con-
sumption, tuberculosis and Pneu-
rnonia. And again the world is aston

IS progressing rapidly and the con-
tractors say they viii have their work
done by the first Of December. Three
spans are now completed and present
a fine appearance. Two more spans
will connect with the old span on the
west side that was left standing by the
flood and this has been raised up to
the level of the new ones. All the
false work of these two spans is now
in and they are about ready to put up
the supporting arches. Connections
are already made so that crossing by
foot can be made when necessary. The
high water in September stopped work
for about ten days. But the cOntrac-
tors say that the worst trouble they
have found is caused by the desiccat-
ing plant which is located a little south
Of the east end of the bridge. This
is so offensive that they have found it
hard to keep workmen. At times a
whole gang would leave at once. The
citizens of Oakland also make serious
complaints of this nuisance. 1t is said
that Mr.. Sardou, who is one of the
principal sufferers, has already spent
over $50 to have this plant removed
The Journal is asked to call the atten-
ton of the proper authorities to this
matter. If the nuisance is one-half as
bad as is represented, it will be a seri-
Gus detriment to the use of this fine
and popular bridge when it is done.
This desiccating business has been a
matter of contention for years and
some means should be devised to end
it. A franchise has already been
granted but 1t should be revoked IN
less the work can be done better.

Chicago, Nov. ia dispatch to

After having stood on his head for
thirty hours to stimulate heart action,
Frank Perry died last night from a
large dose of nitrobenzo1 taken by
mistake for whisky. In their first eff

cred that when he was held head
down the heart action was strong. So
they kept the poisoned man in the

antidotes until he died.

easier led than driven.

for suggestions as to stopping wills

the evil effects OF whispering, which
will be sufficient, perhaps, for a great
many. II that is not sufficient, place
this sentence upon the board; 1--WE
are the ones who whisper" and when
you see one whispering put his name
under the sentence where it will re-
main until the next morning. II
that is not sufficient have it under
stood that when one gets two cross
marks opposite their name in one
day, a punishment will follow.
| tried the above plan in my
school this year and it worked like a
charm. | did not punish a single
pupil any more than putting his
name on the board and perhaps one
cross.

trouble in that line has the power 10
