EVERY MAN HIS OWN DOCTOR

The average man cannot afford to
employ a physician for every slight
aiiment or injury that may occur in
his family, nor can he afford to neglect
them, as SO slight an injury as the
scratch of pin has been known to
cause the loss of limb. Hence every
man must from necessity be his own
doctor for this class of ailments. Sue
cess often depends upon prompt treat
ment, which can only be had when
suitable medicines are kept at hand

Charming Modes Killed by Exagger-
ation-The Tunic. Suitable Only
for Long Skirts-ParasOls Of all
Degrees of ElabOrat'On-Silks
Showing Contrast OF Color or Ma
terial.
By MONS. GENE DE PONTIAC.

As the Paris season progresses
the Directoire style becomes more
and more pronounced-scants kirA,
short-waisted coats with long tails
in tSe back, collar standing up
straight and stiff, huge revers and
wide cuffs-ideas that Will probably
reach us in the fall-let us hope in
less exaggerated form. 1t Is a great
pity that women will never learn to
exercise moderation in the use OF
really beautiful modes. The Direc-
toire costume Is exceedingly pictur-.
esque, and the long, graceful lines Of
the clinging gowns are charming
when properly worn; but in the ex-
treme models they are ridiculous and
not little vulgar. So with the new
figure-the "hipless" craze goes on
till the ultra woman wears harness
that almost prevents locomotion and
that moulds her out of semblance to
anything human.
The tunic skirt is suitable only for
house-gowns, for trailing lengths are
absolutely necessary to counteract
the tendency the tunic has of cutting
off the height. There is great va
riety in the shape in which the tunic
Is cut-it may be square, round or
pointed. A favorite finish Is plain
hem with handsome tassels weight
Ing the points, but there are limitless
possibilities of embroidery, insef-
tons, appliques, fringe and all the
new bordered materials, though the
severely plain lines of the untrimmed
fold are after all the very best.
Soutache embroidery appears on
every available surface, and the
parasol of either silk, net or lingerie
is no exception. Cotton, linen or
silk embroidery is combined with the
braiding or lace medallions are WOW
en- into it. A deep border Of net is
sometimes used on silk or linen
parasol cover, the net covered thick

reign OF pongee calls for parasols of
like material, and many such are
shown, both embroidered and with
woven Persian borders. In silk,
there are innumerable checks,
stripes, blurred flower designs, dots
and sprays. Some of the French
parasols in black-and-white check
are lined with T delicate rose-color,
which makes an eminently becoming
frame for the face. With afternoon
gowns the parasol Is of chiffon, O.,
lace-the heavy Spanish is the most
stunning-or of silk lavishly adorned
with lace among Dresden embroid-
cries. For the lingerie gown the
parasol is made of lawn or linen, and
colored batiste parasols, finished
simply. with tucks, and with enamel
handles of the same shade, are
charming when they match In tint
the embroideries of the gown. Gre
tonne parasolss are gay little affairs
for carrying with morning gowns.
The handles are wood, very plain of
course, and the usual trimming Is
heavy cotton fringe.
While the strictly tailor-made suit
OF coat and skirt to match is as good
form as ever it was and fills some oc-
casions that nothing else ever can
still, the very last word calls for a
contrast in coat and skirt, either Of
color or of material or of both. We
have mentioned before the coats of
linen 30 be worn with skirts of cot
ton net; now 1t Is coats Of braided
nat and skirts of linen. Wolfe
