ADVICE ID WOMEN A Message From a Famons Beauty Specialist to Women Lacking in Energy and
 Vitality

Thousands of women valnly at tempt to improve their complex ions and to remove blackheads, crows feet and other blemlshes, through the use of cosmetics. Ihls treatment fails because the trou- ble lies far deeper than the skin. They are suffering from impure and impoverished blood. Thls condition is in. many cases due to crtarrhal condition of the whole system which finds it's expression in sallow, muddy complexion, darkcircled eyes. general weak ness of the system, and perhaps most plainly in the weeping of mucous membranes that is com monly called catarrh.
 In fact this whole tendency IS, properly speaking, Catarrh. Ban- ish this catarrh, and the com plexion will clear as if by magic, eyes will brighten, faces become rosy and shoulders erect. Perfect beauty goes only with perfect health, and perfect health for women can only be obtained through one certain treatment that which will cure catarrh.
 Mime. Swift, New York, the ! famous beauty specialist known throughout the world and an ac- cepted authority on all relating thereto, states that the one posi- tive and permanent relief for catarrh is Rexall Mucu-Tone. Here is her letter.
 'I can strongly endorse the claims made for ReXall Mucu- Tone as a cure for systemic cat. alrh. It's tonic effects are re- markable. It builds up t h e strength and restores vitality. If women who are tired and run down, lacking in entergy and vitality, will use Rexall Mucu- Tone. they will praise as l do its strengthening and healing quail ties.
 Rexall Mucu-Tone works thro- ugh the blood, acting thus upon the mucous cells---the congestion and inflammation of which causes local catarrh. This remedy cau- ses poison to be expelled from the system, and the blood IS purified and revitalized. Thus the natural functions of the muc- ous cells are restored, and the membranes are cleansed and

Double Up In Hosiery.

What next? Now the modish WON
an has taken to wearing one pair OF
stockings over another to produce the
very fashionable changing effect. or
sourse both stockings are of the very
sheerest and cobwebby sort of thread
silk, and the under pair is usually of
brighter color than the stockings
worn outside. Bronze over yellow is
a favorite combination; green over
blue gives a peacock effect; black
over greon is very smart with green
parasal and black frock showing
green touches. 1t makes one think

LINE EYELETS WITH COTTON
Secret of Smooth Openings for Open
Borders So Popular in Ma
dera Embroidery

Few women can work smoothly the
open eyelet borders SO much seen in
Madeira embroidery. There is sure
to be roughness and unevenness
where one eyelet joins another, and
the general effect is spoiled.
The reason of this is that the work
is not properly done. All instructor
who had a number of natives from
the Island of Madeira exhibiting their
work in this country disclosed the Sc
cret of the smooth openings.
Each eyelet is outlined with cotton
in the usual way; is then slit, If the
shape be oval, and pierced if round.
and the edges turned back with a
needle. This is as any one would do,
but in the working of the overland
over stitch lies the difference.
instead of finishing each eyelet at
time, as most of us would do, it is
worked halfway round on each side,
to where one opening joins the next
one. Then that eyelet is done in the
same way, and so on arorld the en-
tire outer line of the border. The work
is then reversed and the upper half
of the eyelets embroidered in the
same way.
With this treatment there is no un-
evenness, pulling or ugly ridges
where the stitches meet, so hard to
avoid by ordinary method of working.

AFTERNOON WRAPS OF LACE
Black Spanish a Fab.c from Which
Some Beautiful Designs Have
Been Made.

Often we hear the older woman ask:
What shall get for an afternoon wrap?
Pongee is not dignified. | cannot
wear the masculine ulster. nor are
the chiffon things becoming. What
shall | do?"
To this question one would first
answer: Lace" but to the next CUES
tion Renaissance" would be very in
adequate. What kind of lace is dig
nified, handsome, yet not reminiscent
of parlor curtains?
Black Spanish lace, of course. Won
derful wraps are made of this beauti-
full fabric. Sometimes it is woven into
the proper shape for a three-quarter
coat and again it is a scarf arranged
upon foundation.
One of the loveliest wraps of the
kind was black crepe de chine. col
larless and straight of line. A Span.
ish lace scarf was taken in at the
back, so that it fell straight over the
shoulders and was tied in knot on
either side of the front, just below
the line of the bust. The ends were
spread and tackled, and the lace was
also tackled to foundation at the
back, on the shoulders and around the
neck, but not too stiffiy. Could a
prettier coat be desired?

Iona Gloves Out of Fashion.

Glove lore reads in about the same
words from year to year, for the same
materials are used and the same col
ors. But this year the woman with
the slim purse may rejoice. for the
long glove of great price which every
one was bound to wear last year, has
and the length of sleeve
has grown so that now one may pur-
chase for a dollar pair of gloves to
ne worn on any occasion.
The chamois glove, which sprang
inco unusual use last summer, has lost
none of it's popularity, but it now re-
appears in far more satisfactory
form with one button. 1t Is easy to
wash, quickly dried and comfortable
to wear. and even men are beginning
to realize this, for they frequently are
seen on masculine hands and in the
business district. Chamois is only
an "undress" glove material, like woven
silk and cotton, although it is one step
above these. One may wear chamois
gloves for shopping or for morning
Waits, even IL the gown be of foulard.
Silk and cotton gloves are only prop
erly worn on shopping tours If the
srock be of plainest gingham.

The Takin, or Chinese Buffalo.

ne ] AKIN, or CnIneSe Buffalo.
size of Jersey COW, and it cannot be
said that he bears much resemblance
TO the American bison. His body and
legs suggest both the antelope and the
goat, his back is like that of yak and
his head, which is surrounded by curv-
ing horns. has the bulging nose which
suggests that of the moose. The takin
has hoofs which are parted and his
ways are like those of the goat. He
is rather heavy animal, yet he
spends his time in the western noun
tains of the SZe-Chuan province. where
he gets about among the crags as
lightly as does the big horn of the
Rockies. He is strong and able
bodied and in fight can give good
account of himself.
The hide of the takin which was
sent here was dry and as hard as
board. and Mr.. Higgins. chief taxider
mist of the museum, had long strug
gle with it in getting it into proper
form. but by following the hair pat
terms he has been enabled to present
the skin with all the distinction which
an animal of such complicated ana
tony deserves.
The hoofs of the creature are very
hard and have grooves and scratches
in them, which indicate that he was
well accustomed to making his agile
way over the sharp rocks in his native
province.
Mr.. Mitchell has sent to the Ameri-
can museum several rare animals
which he obtained in remote parts of
the Chinese empire.
