TRUE ART OF THE TOILET.
The Well Dressed Woman Gives Close
Attention to Small Details
of Costume.

Every woman wishes to appear at her
best In the evening-that is an undisput-
ed point, and yet there is an astonishing
number Of women who do not seem to
know how they are to go about 1t in or
der to achieve this much longed for re-
suit. 1t is without question upon the last
finishing touches that so much depends,
and that is what so many fail to under
stand. The average woman when once
she has ordered some few expensive
gowns at a well-known modiste's will
settle back comfortably and consider
that her clothes are now all ready for thu
winters campaign. If she but knew it,
her taste should have but just begun.
Just what to add and what to take away,
which color to bring out and which to
avoid as the plague-upon this depends
the fate, not of a nation, perhaps, but OF
assured popularity for the season.
Perhaps more depends upon the ar
rangement Of the hair than is possible to
conceive Of. There are myriads Of wo-
men who have seen on a friend a certain
style of hairdressing which appeals to
them and have instantly initiated it. ut
terly regardless Of the fact that their
own profile would be SHOWN to much bet
ter advantage by a totally different ar
rangement. As a rule. those who are
endowed with regular and sharply de-
fined features look best with the hair
placed in a loose coil at the nape of the
neck, but this is not always the case, and
each woman should study her own pat
terms and decide for herself which style
of hairdressing Is most becoming and
then stay by it. Not until her mind is
definitely made up on this point can she
get together the ornaments which she is
to wear in her hair with her dinner and
ball gowns.
Artificial flowers seem ever the pref
tiest of all ornaments for the hair, and,
indeed, they are always in fashion, al
though stiff aigrettes and spangled wings
may seem the fad Of the moment. While
the plain flowers are charmingly simple
and attractive, for that reason they will
show up far better if studded with rhine
stones or bright paillettes, and their
sparkle is always effective against the
hair. Large flowers and tiny forget-me-
not wreaths are alike in vogue, so that
individual taste is alone necessary in the
choice.
With the hair parted on the side and
worn low on the neck, medium-sized
wreaths, brought well forward in front
the ends coming down on each side of the
knot at the back, are newer than the
single flower placed on the side Of the
coil, These wreaths can be had in any
flower desired from velvet forget-me
nots to the finest of chiffon r%osebuds, ant
may be pailletted or not, at will. witt
the hair worn high, wreaths are equally
fashionable, but in this case the hair Il
brought quite far down over the fore
head-although the pompadour is no
very Highland the flowers are brough
to a decided point in front, being from
three TO four inches high in the center
with the effect Of a crown or a tiara.

Intense Cold Breeds Catarrh.

February is a month Of severe storms
and intense cold.
Even in the South where the prevail
ing temperature is much above wintry
|laiitudcs, February brings sudden
changes of temperature.
Mercury sometimes drops 90 degrees
in a single night.
Therefore, the following health hints
are applicable TO the whole OF North
America:
Ventilation.
The sleeping rooms should be we'll
ventilated, but so as to avoid direct
currents Of air.
Bathing.
Those in vigorous health should take
n cold water towel bath every morning
before breakfast. Thosein feeble health
should take a brisk dry-towel-rub every
morning.
Diet.
The diet should be a generous one,
including meat, and occasionally fresh
vegetables,
Sunshine.
The nights being long and the days
short. rs much sunshine as possible
should be let into the house during the
day.
Clothing.
Tho head should be kept cool ut all
times. The feet should be kept warm
and dry, day and night.
Pe.ru-na.
When unavoidably exposed to cold or
wet, n few doses of Peruna will avert
bad consequences.
Precaufion.
When seized with n chill, or ever
slight chilliness, a dose of Peruna should
be taken at once.

Down at Hot Springs, Ark, the WIS.,
itors have all sorts of complaints, but
it is a subject Of remark that the great
majority of them have some trouble
with stomach and bowels. This may
be partly attributed to the heavy med
icines.
Naturally, under the conditions, the
question of food is very prominent.
A young man states that he Rad suf-
fered for nine years from stomach and
bowel trouble, had two operations
which did not cure, and was at last
threatened with appendicitis.
He went to Hot Springs for rheum-
atism, and his stomach trouble got
worse. One day at breakfast the wait
err, knowing his condition, suggested
he try Grape-Nuts and cream, which
he did, and found the food agreed with
him perfectly.
After the second day he began to
sleep peacefully at night, different than
he had for years. The perfect diges-
ton Of the food quoted lis nervous
system and made sleep possible.
He says: "The next morning was
