The Fashionable 9O6 Figure

this bright hue made use of. And the peacock blues and greens will con- tinue to be the fashion. This spring will certainly be season of color, the coming summer a white season.
 For evening and elaborate afternoon affairs the flounced skirt will be worn, net and lace the materials used for these frocks. The sleeves are made to match the skirt, just succession of frills. An addition to my lady's stock of furbelows is the negligee skirt, moss of fluffy frills. China silk makes charming negligee petti- coat, and has the advantage of laun- dering nicely--these should be light colored. and will need be of such stuff as will bear tubbing. Worn with an open tea gown or matinee sack they are very charming and luxurious and really need not cost fortune.
 A petticoat not quite so frivolous as the above is a black and white striped taffeta trimmed with rows of black ribbon edging circular founces. For the lingerie petticoat, the seasons new models show lace combined with embroidery, rather elaborate trim ming, but on the whole very attrac- tive.

 full Detective.

A young detective at public meet ing was anxious to display his powers of shrewd perception to friend who was with him.
 Do you see that shabby-looking man over there. who has been furtive- ly watching me all the timer" he said. That fellow is after no eood. He evi- dently suspects who I am, or he would probably be engaged in trying the pockets of his neighbors. Do you mo- tice his shifty eyes and his restless movements? They are unmistakable signs of the thief. I mean to keep my eye on him. or somebody will be the poorer"
 The young mans friend listened with respectful attention. and watched with some curiosity the movements of the suspected man. To their surprise he took advantage of Hull In the pro- ceedings to approach them.
 Excuse me-" he said courteously. to the detective. but your diamond scarf. pin has fallen out of your tie. hsye been watching 1t work its way out for the last ten minutes. but could not warn you before. and have been quite nervous about It.

LIFTS SEE YOUR TONGUE. "
The Nor aeh's First Call for the Help that Dr..
 Richards Dyspepsia Tablets Give.

Go to physician with any com plaint. The first thing he says is Lets see your tongue" That is the index that tells him the state of your digestion. and that means the condi- tion of your health, your vitality and your ability to respond to any treat ment, from surgical operation down.
 As a matter of fact. the person whose stomach is in first-class condi- ton. able to digest the food and fur nish the nourishment necessary to keep the human machine running, is not likely to be troubled with any other complaint. On the other hand, one whose stomach is too weak to digest his food is at the mercy of any com plaint he is subject or may be exposed to. The presence of such symptoms as coated tongue, impaired appetite, soreness or burning sensation in the stomach, headache, dizziness. and q general feeling of weariness and slug gishness, is proof positive that the stomach needs looking after.
 Tn Dr Richards's Dyspepsia Tablets may be found the most rational, eff cient and pleasant remedy. They are not purgative in character. nor do they stimulate, the stomach to unnatural and harmfuI action, but they do fGf- nish the necessary clements for the proper digestion of food. the lack of which is responsible for the agonies of dyspepsia.
 Price. 90 cents per bottle. Sold by druggists. Manufactured by Dr Rich ards's Dyspepsia Tablet Association, 5 Worth street, New York.

 Regulate Motor Car Tramc.


 Regulate Motor Car Tramc.
 TRENTON, N. j., Feb. 21.-The sen ate Judiciary committee here gave q hearing on .the Frelinghuysen and Jackson bill, which regulates the run ming of automobiles In New Jersey. When the hearing was begun the as- sembly chamber and the gallery were packed There were about thousand persons present, including delegation from Philadelphia which came in special train to oppose the bill. The farmers and others favorable to the measure were out in force, and the au- dience was about evenly divided be- tween the two sides.
 Senator Hillery, chairman of the committee, announced that those op- posed would be heard first, and ex- Senator Charles A. Reed, representing the Automobile AssocA tion of Union County, was introduced. He said he thought the present laws sufficient with an amendment conferring power to re- yoke licenses when laws had been bro ken.
 Prosecutor Steer of Hudson county, representing the automobile club of that county, made a speech condemn ing the bill W. B. Scarrett, president of the Automobile Club of America. said that if the bill passed 1t would put automobile driving out of existence in New Jersey. E. Robert Walker spoke for Mercer county and automobilists and said that the present laws were ample for all purposes if enforced.
 Others who spoke against the bill were Charles T. Terry of the National Association of Automobile Manufac- turers, Adrian Riker for the New Jer- sey Automobile club and R. V. Linda bury. R. c. Betts, president of the Federation of American Motor Cyclists, made a short speech asking that motor cycles be excluded from the operation of the law.

hshion Notes and Rurnors

country is treated to goodly showers. and rain coat Is almost an essential; then it comes in very handy to take along on summer travels and summer outings.
 Among the most attractive materials now on display are the rough weaves in silks. They come both plain and figured, and make up nicely for suits. for separate skirts and for waists. We feel tempted to make use with refer ence to them of the much-abused word artistic" For spring nothing could be more charming than a silver gray in the rough or semi-rough weave. Some of the grays show fine hair-line of black, the line so fine that at a distance the goods appear but the one color. Japanese silks make up very nicely for the styles now in vogue, and these are inexpensive as well as pretty. Wash-silk waists are highly recommended for spring and summer wear. Japanese and China silks are coming into common use as foundations and Things, clinging eff fects now so well liked.
 Little loose coats of bengaline silk, elaborately trimmed with braid, prom ise to be the height of fashion; and such wrap as this is really most con venient for warm weather wear. In spite of predictions to the contrary. the dressy spring coat will as rule have short sleeves and probably be collarless. Linen embroideries on coats of wool or silk will be feature, and very charming feature, of spring fashions; the ground of these trim mings cream colored or ecru, the em- broidery in soft, rich colors. And with reference to the black silk coats, one may use almost any style of silk, re- model very acceptably from old ma terial in the house-so many different black silks now in use, all the way from crisp taffeta to soft peau de soie.
 Wedgewood blue-certainly an ex- quisite shade-promises to supplant other blues as the very best style. Soft lilac tones are in favor, in spite of the way in which they were made so common the past winter. The old rose shades continue in fashion, and delicately-toned backgrounds for hair lines will appear with the first pleas ant days of the spring. Soft, indis- tinct plaids will be worn, these so much more attractive than startling contrasts.

sircular skirt will prevail, and pleated sffects by no means be out of style.
 To still further anticipate, white linen suits will be much the fashion the coming summer, the bolero and Eton the jackets for these suits, a longer coat in wash goods rumpling hnd immediately looking untidy. We are promised another white season, white to be even more modish than last summer.
 The rain-coat, shorter than former 1y, is by far the best garment of the kind that has been put out. These utility wraps come in fitted backs, in loose ripple backs, and may be had in lengths varying from 50 to 5S inches. The materials are very handsome this season, and also the colors.

AS everyone that watches the styles is aware, there is no greater difference between city woman and country wo- man than the form. Of course this difference is brought about by dress, the cut of the garments and the dis position of the trimming. And to- day the city woman takes careful note of the waist-line. For some years back we have had the dip-belt craze. Of late the Empire style has gained ground. The happy mean between these two extremes is the all-round belt at the normal waist line, no dip down, no short -waisted encircling;
