Many of the evening stuffs are of so
elegant a pattern that to trim them
would spoil them. A mousseline which
was covered with Dresden roses had
its roses so arranged that they formed
a pattern. They were large around
the foot of the skirt gradually growing
smaller toward the belt line. With
such a skirt nothing was possible ex-
cept a wide girdle of lemon color to
match the roses.

MARKETING.
Fruits Bought in Season and Staples
in Quantity Make for Notice
ably Smaller Bills.

Marketing and economy are two
words that should be found side by
side. Economy in marketing means
receiving full value for the money
spent, and to exercise this true ec)n-
omy one must purchase things in their
best condition, in their season. and in
exactly the requisite quantities. In
purchasing fresh foods it is an in
eyitable rule that they are best in
flavor, nutrition and wholesomeness
when they are in season. They are
also most plentiful and cheap at this
time.
Perlshable foods should be bought
only in the quantity required for the
days use.
Flour, sugar, etc, are cheaper when
bought in quantities, and when kept
in a cool, dry place do not spoil.
Canned goods are also cheaper when
bought by the quantity, and the stor-
ing of them requires but little room.
All marketing should be done where
there is a quick and constant renewing
of the stock. In small stores goods fire.
quently remain long on hand and de-
teriorate. Vegetables can scarcely be
bought too fresh, though there are a
few which do not deteriorate by keep
ing a little while. The same may be
said about fish. Poultry should al
ways he quite fresh. Beef and NUT
ton require to be kept in a cool, dry
place for some Gays after killing DE-
fore they are lt to eat. Veal and
lamb should be cooked when freshly
killed.-American Queen.

SOME NURSERY HINTS.
. Few Directions Concerning the
Care of Child's General Health
and Growth.

Compound camphor liniment rubbed
into a child's hair from time to time
will aid materially in strengthening the
growth. Olive oil is also good for this
purpose. Do not use much at a time,
or the child's head will present a greasy
appearance.
For Sore Throats-First rub all the
front of the throat with menthol. Then
wet a handkerchief, tie round the
throat, and over the handkerchief put
a piece of oil silk. One application gem
orally effects a cure, as this acts like q
poultice. Second Remedy for Sore
Tonsils-Get a wooden skewer, cover t e
point smoothly with a %wadding, and
paint the tonsils with a mixture Of
tannin and glycerine, using the skewer
as a paint brush. This is a certain cure.
An oiled jacket has given many a poor
child relief land adults, too in bron-
chitis and chest affections. Get a piece
of lint, fold it in half, have it long enough
to reach from the neck to the pit of the
stomach. Cut a hole in the fold large
enough for the head to pass through,
wiring it out tightly in warm linseed oil,
and apply it to the patient at once, one
half going over the back, the other the
chest. Cover it with cotton wool and
bandage to keep in place. Change twice
a week.
If the nursery is oyerheated, baby's
system will become relaxed, If too cold
baby's vitality will be reduced. If the
air is impure the baby will be liable to
chest disease. The proper temperature
is IS degrees at first, then 60 degrees
thereafter.-Health.

Atlanta, Cattle recent proposition
Vi J. Pope Brown. chairman of the
Georgia railroad commission, to reduce
the passenger rate in Georgia from
three to two cents per mile was pro-
tested against by the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Engineers, the Order Of
Railway Conductors, and unions of the
blacksmiths, machinists and telegraph
ers, boilermakers, railway trainmen,
carpenters and j%oiners, clerks and car
men. These organizations employed
an attorney especially to represent
them, who urged that such a reduc-
ton would work against the %prosperi-
ty of the state and lead to a reduc-
ton in the number of railroad en-
ployes as well as of their wages. The
Travellers Protective association also
protested that a reduction as proposed
would result in fewer trains and poor

"Quite the contrary. At the end Of
two months I wasn't a bit better, and at
times l feared that I would never be

Were Good for Both,

Paulding, Miss, May l5th.-(Special)
In this nelghborhood men and women
like are telling Of the great benefit they
nave received from the use of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and it frequently happens
they are the means Of curing members OF
both sexes in the same family. Take the
case OF Mr.. and Mrs. +. Erby. The latter
voices the sentiment OF both when she
says:
My lips cannot express too much
praise for Dodd's Kidney Pills. | suffered
with Backache and Female weakness for
four or five years and ! feel that | have
been wonderfully helped by Dodd's Kid
ucy Pills. My husband too was a suf-
fcrer for five years from a weak bladder
and they also cured him.
Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy kid
neys. Healthy kidneys mean pure blood
and good health all oyer the body. No
woman with healthy kidneys ever had le-
male weakness.
