that chemically pure glycerine, of proper
strength, is a better solvent and presery-
alive of the medicinal principles resid-

Poverty Soup.

Place about one or one and one
half quarts water in kettle, pare and
slice two good-sized onions and put
into water, cooking one-half hour;
then pare and slice as many potatoes
as desired for the soup, putting in salt
and more water if needed Gas little
water should be used as possible in or
der to cook in good shape). When
potatoes are nearly done as much as
good rich milk should be put in as one
desires, seasoning with butter, pep
per and more salt if needed. Let this
boil up and serve at once.

Stylish Gown on Old Mode.

A gown of cream-dotted painted
chiffon had panels of rose pompadour
ribbon, in that peculiar shade of let
tuce green with rose shadow designs.
frilled in turn with narrow ribbon
plaitings in the green shade. Narrow
pompadour ribbon run through lace
braid was used to outline the yoke
and girdle. Bows of this ribbon had
their silken ends fringed and knotted
to a depth of four inches. Narrow
black and colored velvet ribbons will
be used again, run through filmy lace
insertions upon the collars and cuffs
of lingerie waists and gowns. A
modish maid with a scantily filled
jewel box may utilize this fashion for
neck trimming using the wider bands
of velvet clasped about her neck when
a low-cut gown is worn in lieu of the
inevitable dog collar, after the vogue
obtaining when Frances Folsom was

I'D CRUMBO, Ex-Mayor of New
IL Albany, Ind, writes from 511 E.
Oak street:
"My endorsement of Peruna is
based on it's merits.
If man is sick he looks anxiously
for something which will cure him,
and Peruna will do the work.
81 know that it will cure catarrh of
the head or stomach, indigestion, head
ache and any weary or sick feeling.
&C 1t is bound to help anyone, if used
according to directions.
81 also know dozens of men who
speak in the highest terms Of Peruna.
and have yet to hear of anyone being
disappointed in it,
Mr.. Crumbo, in later letter, dated
Aug 25, 1904, says:
my health is good, at present. but if
should have to take any more medi-
cine will fall back on Peruna.''

BLACK Velvet eobs Up Again.

Black velvet trimming is playing
rather an important part upon the
first spring frocks, and a touch of it
seems likely to be used upon almost
any material or any model.
The black velvet coat collars and
cuffs which were introduced upon the
tailor coat and coat costumes of white
Panama serge, mohair, cloth and even
linen last summer are once more in
evidence upon the white tailored
frocks for southern wear and in some
models are supplemented by bands
or folds of black velvet upon the skirt.

Iaffeta Suits.

Tailored suits of taffeta will be a la
mode for summer wear and stand an
excellent chance of supplanting the
shirtwaist suit. The models now ex-
hibited are three-pieced affairs, the
extra garment being, of course, a del
icate lingerie blouse of linen or silk.
The fate of the taffeta suit is yet in
the balance, however, and one is quite
safe in investing in a gorgeous model

on the American side, a group Of private
persons of America, armed and took pas

did not wear the American federal uni
form, nor were they under command of
any chiefs, and still less had they received
any instructions from their government.
Governor Yzabel when he took the train
at Naco could not prevent private Ameri-
can citizens. whether armed or not, from
travelling and repairing to Cananea. But
as soon as the governor arrived at can
anea, which is within his own jurisdiction,
he prevented these individuals from
aliehting from the train and interfering In
the strike; in fact he urged them to re-
turn to American soil, which advice they
acted upon most willingly.
