FROM ELIZABETH LEE
For a Crepe or Pongee Gown.

Dear Miss Lee: I have inclosed
samples for two dresses. Will you kind
ly tell me how to make them, and
what will 60 well with them to bring
them outs I would like lace to go
with the white one, as it is to be q
wedding dress for early fall. T. am
decided brunette, feet IL inches tall,
81 bust, % waist. Would like prin-
propriate for such design. For the
pongee, thought something with lace
guimpe and bolero with real pipings
used in some way would be pretty.
- M. E. L.
The ivory crepe will make up into a
lovely princess gown, becoming to your
petite figure, gathered a good deal
soout the waist line from plain front
panel. AS the nature Of the crepe is
somewhat stiff, folds, rather than ,frills,
will be the prettier finish at the bot
tom Of the skirt. I fancy band Of
rather heavy deep ivory lace coming
between two tucks or folds of the
goods, ending in motifs on the front
panel The yoke would be Of all-over
lace running down in short, broad
tab in center front, the outline folds Of
the goods held down to the lace tab
with little bows of ivory ribbon. Sim.
liar bows holding the shirring to the
front panel at the waist line. The
{ sleeves T should like in two puffs, tied
to the arm with ribbons and ending il
lace cuffs. This suggests a very pretty
frock, and the tan pongee may b.
made up as you suggest with touchel

MUSIC FOR METHODIsTs.

Good music will hereafter be a spe-
cial feature of the services in the
Methodist church. This is a move in
the right direction. What is more up
lifting and inspiring than the Songs
of Zion" we'll and heartily sung? The
Hawaiian voices are we'll adapted for
public worship and the quartet of
young men engaged by the Methodists
will add greatly to the interest of the
Sabbath services. Miss Marion Bell is
in charge and will also sing today, both
morning and evening.

If one of yours had Typhoid and you
had a specific that only reached mild
forms and another that controlled the
most serious cases, which would you
use?
You would take no chances-you
would use the one that would control
the case if serious.
Exactly the same in Kidney disor-
ders There are dozens of preparations
that are used, but there is only one
thing on your shelves that will cure it
if serious, and that is Fulton's Renal
Compound Cor Bright's Disease.
Don't you agree with us that these
facts ought to be called to the atten-

BRISBANE. Dec

BRISBANE, Dec. !.
The amazing romance OF a woman who
successfully masqueraded as a man for
ten years has been revealed by the arrest
here Of William" Edwards on a charge
Of burglary.
The prisoners real name IS Marion ed
wards. but since 1886 she has played the
part Of a horse trainer. rough rider.
painter and decorator. .laborer and bar
man without any one having the slightest
suspicion that she was a woman.
Edwards is wanted IN Melbourne for a
burglary committed In May Of last year.
She was at one time in partnership with
a horse trainer named Pollock, who never
suspected her sex. She rode, drank and
talked like a man.
About six years ago She made love to a
Melbourne widow. and eventually mar
ried" her ia St Francis Church in that
city. She had a number of other love az
fairs. and on one occasion two Brisbane
girls had a furious quarrel regarding heT
affections.
At the brisbane Exhibition last year
Edwards acted as a barman. Afterward
she worked as a laborer, removing lumber
from the exhibition grounds, and her ex-
traordinary strength excited the comment
OF the other w0rkmen. For some time
also Edwards was in business as house
painter and decorator.
