FLOUNCE REVIVAL.

The founce, the panier and the tip pet are but a. few of the fashions o1 bygone days which promise to be pop ular again in the spring. In evening gowns of satin founces of lace run ur the skirt from hem to waist, another f1ounce finishing the bodice.
 The dress for the daytime is car ried out in velvet, the founcing on the side panel being in crepe de chine touches of the latter material finish ing the elbow length sleeves. The skirt is made to fasten down the side front with a series of buttons, and around the waist it is joined to the baby bodice with several rows of gauging. A collar of fine lawn is em- broidered and inset with lace motifs and around it's edges there is a border of Irish crochet.
 Evening gowns in panier style are made of satin charmeuse, the panier draperies being in ninon, either to match or in a pretty color contrast Some of the paniers are Iooped up at the sides with bows of velvet ribbon and others are caught up with clus- terS of rosebuds and foliage in satin
 When panier draperies adorn the evening skirt an artistic touch is giv- en the bodice by means of fichu folds of lace or ninOn.

NITA'S NEW YORK FASHIONS
A Year for Independent Dressing Contrasts Seen on the Train-Grace
 and Distinction Only Needed.

This is one season, I believe, when you can wear almost anything and be in fashion. This fact was borne in upon me on the train the other day : Of course a railroad train isn't ex- actly the place to look for style mod els. But remember, those who have the price to be travelling back and forth, especially on the Congressional Limited" are pretty certain to have the price of the best.
 The wife of high official who was on the train was dressed in a, man. ner to make our mothers of conser- vatlve tastes shiver. Can you inn journey in green frock and green stockings.
 Her gown was "decently'' green, be- ing a very refined lady's cloth with some inconspicuous band trimming. But, Oh dear me-That hat and neck piece in green marabout. It was aw- fud, I couldn't keep my eyes off of 1t. The hat, distinctly of the Knox type, which you know is the synonym for the correct tailor style, was unde- niably smart all by its little lonesome. It was a green straw, with a conven- tional rosette of velvet and a perky lit- tie parrot perched at the precise angle, but with the marabout boa it was aw- full.
 But then-Mrs. High-Brow can set the style, and even though she wore green gloves, she was still an arbiter. But I did hope in my heart of hearts that she would not influence many to follow in her wake or more properly speaking her 'twakefulness,' unless to go still further one should say her nightmare effort
 It doesn't follow that we have to be freakish. As I said before we can go in for almost everything, and, as a very slangy young college boy friend of mine aptly expresses it., We're right if we can get away with it.

(Chicago Evening Post,

 I wore a year ago
 And once became me so. I have not changed the slightest bit, Nor grown in any way, But if I wore a last years style
 What would my friends all say? I cannot wear the old dress
 That was So swell last fall; It does not show the least of wear, But will not do at all, Why, if I walked down street in it I could not then endure The knowledge that all of our friends Would say we had grown poor. I cannot wear the old hat
 I put away last spring Although it shows no signs of wear And is a lovely thing. But it is not at all the shape It breaks my heart to think of all The costly stuff it bears,
 That everybody wears. I cannot wear the old coat,
 Nor wear my last years furs- And though I sadly cast them off My heart with rapture stirs. I've got to buy expensive things And wOmen's clothes are dear think, though I'll have twice as much To bid goodbye next year.

FRANKNESS AND FRIENDSHIP
''Do not allow trivial misunderstanding to withe the blossom of spring Bleak House.

"Do not allow trivial misunderstanding to wither the blossom of spring. Bleak House.
 It his intimate knowledge of the human heart that will make Dickens always beloved.
 You cannot read any of his books and not find this wonderfully keen insight and sympathy
 Always he counsels frankness among friends well among enemies.
 He was, without doubt, good hater-he could be keen almost to cruelty-but he could be kind!
 Doubtless he suffered much from misunderstanding, for he is faithful in hisadmontion to speak boldly when misunderstanding occurs of ingenuousness
 The small hurts that carry deep in our hearts cause keener suffering than the open wounds.
 It is easy to to understanding ln open quarrel It is almost impossible to clear up msunder standing when of the parties does not know what is the matter.
 If you have grievance go to the with whom you and ask to be set right If the friendship worthy of the the trouble will be cleared and all will be forgiven and forgotten.
 Shakespeare says 'o be wroth with we love doth work like madness in the bran."
 Small injuries grow by contemplation Hurts that but thorn in the flesh fester and poison all existence
 Be frank. Ask why-and, if you wrong, be for given. If your friend is wrong forgive and be happy in doing it.
 Forgiveness kills
 The old time ache and covers up wounds;
 Forgiveness ceanses like spiritual flame,
 And hushes all the heart breaks of the World.''

PADS AND FASHIONS

Frills, pleatings and ruchings are us- ed upon every article on which trim ming is required.
 The present seasons draperies of a soft silk lowered batiste Or crepon de SOie over an underdress of taffetas or satin, allow scope for great skill in the manipulation of colors and shades
 Street suits of white serge and fine bedford cord continue to be popular. In fact, frocks of white serge seem to be almost indispensable, as they can be worn on such a Sariety of occasions.
 For the 'small Sisters there are charming quaint bOnnets of shirred taffeta. Dainty rosettes and bows, miniature flowers of all varieties and silk in cashmere designs are used to trim these
 The double butterfly bow, almost covering the shoulder blades, is a fa- vored style of the moment now seen at the back of the lace fichu draped cor sage de soire made for early wear.

rare and beautiful qualities of dispo- sltlon, be glad to get into the com pany of some one who is tidy, smart well groomed and wholesome looking The idea that many women have re gardlng appearance after marriage is unquestionably the root of the trouble in their domestic relations. A man may be prone to sit at the table in his shirt sleeves. He may even go So far as to insist upon wear ing some old slouchy cap around the house. But he doesn't for a minute fail to recognize the lapse in his wife if SHE doesn't keep up appearances. Of course the $500 lace trimmed neg ligee in which my lady lounges in a rose scented boudoir, is the other ex- treme. We middle class women in moderate circumstances, are the ones to be most careful.
 I really believe a man would con- done burnt bread and "doughy'' cake, more quickly than the wrapper and curl papers that make his erstwhile attractive wife sight
 The home garb, like home manners should be such that it's pleasant in- f1uence would make the husband see things through rose colored glasses.
 In these days when women can buy neat little frocks for house wear at less than a dollar, there Is no excuse for any apparel that is not trim and neat.
 Did you ever stop to ponder on the number of most satisfactory alliances made by nurses with wealthy pa tients?
 I believe that the basis of attrac- ton is in the faultless uniform, it's simplicity and becomingness. It means more to the eye of the sick man than lingeries and fal-lals.
 If this same style is kept up after marriage, the charm will continue po- tent, though features may change, and years will do their work in wrin- kles and gray hair.
 Because one has to cook dinners and possibly scrub floors is no reason why a decency of apparel is not to be maintained. It is the wise little wo- man who essays to retain her hus- bands affections by the outward ap- pearance which a little care will stead fastly maintain.

 Special Sale of Easter Wearing Ap-
 parel.
 Nn xx,1, i, ter Sunday is the time when people who wish to be considered as smartly dressed, wear their new Spring clothes. The weather has been so backward that 1t is something of a surprise to think that Easter is only a week from Sunday and that it is high time to buy the new outfit to insure it's being already for that day. But such is the case, and the Credit Clothing Depart ment Store of Caesar Misch, Inc, are
 right on deck with the announcement of a very special sale of Easter Ap- parel that will take place on Saturday.
 TEis is somewhat out of the ordin- ary as people are accustomed to pay regular prices at the beginning of the season, and doubtless many will take advantage of this sale to procure their outfit.
 For the past two weeks and more, this big store has rapidly been filling up with the latest Spring styles in ev- cry department which includes wear ing apparel for Ladies, Misses, Girls. Men, Boys and Children. Very new arrivals are announced which will be on display for the first time on Sat urday, and everyone is invited to in- spect the new fashions whether or not they wish to take advantage of the special price offerings.

This enables everyone to purchase what IS needed when it is needed without hav- ing either to go without or, embar- rassing their income.

Message Of Hope and Joy t1
 All Afflicted Persons

There Is hope of a well-based Kind which should bring joy and ultimate eontentment to multitudes of persons who have been troubled for years with deafness or head-noises.
 Dr. Coutant, an able specialist. has evolved a newly perfected method for treating cases where the hearing is not perfect or where the sufferer is harass- cd by ringing. roaring. buzzing or other disagreeable noises in the head. It ap- pears that about e5 out of every hun dred cases are from causes amenabio to proper treatment.
 Dr. Coutant does not advocate the use of drugs or electricity. He relies chiefly upon cooperating with Nature In bringing about a speedy and effectu- al cure of morbid aural conditions. Re- markable cures are reported. many of them being fin the cases of deafness that had existed for about 20 to 70 years. With the description given in his newly published book. the learned docto- provides a long series of letteruI written by persons wi had been given up as hopeless. and who were speedily cured at home without loss of time and without inconvenience by Dr. C0utant's natural home method.
 Anyone who is interested can write to a dozen or a hundred of the persons who, not long ago. were victims of deafness or head-noises tor both, and who are now delighted to proclaim themselves as marvellously benefited or completely cured.
 Dr. Coutant is not one of the frre- sponsible quacks. of which there ia such a large number. but is a reput- able. responsible, licentiat>, practising physician with a third of a century's active experience.
 The doctor believes there ars many who are troubled with deafness. esr., yho might he permanently p~ed Irun their inability to hear and from dn- nitus (noises) if they would do as oth- CTS have successfully done, merely fol- lowing the advice given.
 The book. which any reader can oi,- tain from the author, Dr. George E. Coutant, 269 D. Station B, New York, N. r.. has been declared by many to be worth its weight in gold. One needs only to write for it and the treatise WiM promptly come in plain wrapper.

ONE WOMAN TO ANOTHER
Slovenly Dressing Leads to Divorce Why Nurses Make Many Good Matches-Their Neatness Captivates Many Peoples Regard.

In these days many people regard marriage as only a mOmentary obli- gation, and divorce is a daily happen ing. I have frequently asked myself, what was the most potent reason for the numerous separations, which most forcibly prove that man can and will put asunder what God has joined to- gether
 And strange as it may see-frivol- ous reasoning no doubt, really believe that the dress question is at the bot tom of it all. Curl papers, run down shoes, and a general look of being struck by a cyclone, makes many a woman so displeasing in the sight of her husband, that he will, despite all

FIRST THINGS.

The first Union of Agricultural La borers was inaugurated at Leaning ton, Warwfckshire, England, forty-five years ago to-day. The principal pro- moter was Joseph Arch, formerly a laborer and later Methodist minis ter. The movement spread through out England, and received the support of several members of Parliament and other influential public men. There were many disputes between the union laborers and farm owners, reaulting in lockouts. By 1875 the agitation had subsided. Attempts to organize farm hands have since been made in the United States, Canada, Australia and other countries. but none have suc- ceeded. Unions of farm owners, how ever, have met with considerable suc- cess, especially in maintaining tke price of cotton and tobacco.
