II agreed with her stomach | contin-
ued using 1t with grateful results The
Inflammation began to subside after
she had taken the first fifty-cent bot
tie, and after she took two large bot
ties she was pronounced cured by the
doctor and has been in good health
ever since The doctor came to see
her every day and examined her ev-
cry second day until he pronounced
her kidneys in perfect condition
Now then the doctor was under the
impression that | was giving my girl
his medicine, but as his medicine had
failed to do a bit of good. and desir-
ing not to offend him, I did not tell
him I was giving her Swamp Root

CIllIdren's Coats.

Naturally the successful styles that
have been launched In women's fash
ions have been represented in chill
dren's styles. The separate coats
have reflected some of the noticeable
features and the wise mother is the
one who can modify and simplify the
youth and figure of her little daugh-
ter.
The smartest coats are made in
serge whipcords, velvet, heavy corded
silks and broadcloths. Nearly all
show sashes of satin or wide belts
Buttons are used to trim them, and
all the novelties that have appeared
in buttons for mothers dress are re-
produced in smaller size for little
daughter.
Oval forms predominate. Enamel,
bone. wood and glass buttons afford
important decorative notes for little
| coats
Braid gives a jaunty, military touch
in straight lines across the front and
forms epaulets on the shoulders. The
silk mohair and soutache braids are
favored.

to be used linen would best be cho-
sen, as it is durable enough to make
the work worth while It has the ad-
vantage of also keeping perfectly
white after much laundering and
irons smooth without starch. Lawn,
either linen or cotton, in fine quail
ties, sheer nainsook and French ba-
tiste are preferred for making the ba-
by's dresses and petticoats.
Very narrow Valencinnes edgings in
the smallest. neatest patterns are
used to finish sleeves and the neck.
Laces and embrOideries are sparingly
used. excepting when made by hand.
Feather stitching is favorite dec
Grafton for seams and hens. Eyelet
holes are worked about the neck and
sleeves to carry baby ribbon. This is
necessary to adjust the garment to the
very young infant. The layette, OF
course, is made to fit the child when
he is from to months or until he
puts on short clothes. They are,
therefore. cut too large for the new
born infant and are adjusted to the
neck and arms by ribbon.
The favorite finish for outside edges
is the small hand embroidered seal
lCp, and there is quite a fad at pres
ent for pale pink and blue embroid-
cry floss in finishing the little gar
ments Tiny feather stitched tucks
are very pretty, worked in either Of
these colors Only white floss is used
where considerable embroidery is
done on the dress.

Graccfml DrancrieS.

The touch of the Oriental that is
noticed in the spring styles requires
that a fabric be used which lends it,
self readily to graceful drapery. One
particularly adaptable material is
etamine. which is more popular this
spring than it has been for several
seasons. The robes of hand drawn
etamine are truly beautiful The
drawn-work appears in bands of
graduated widths forming very
handsome border for the robe. A
narrow band Of drawn-work is done
along the opposite edge of the ma
terial to be used for the smaller trim
mings. These etamines come in all
the vivid shades that are to be so
much used.
Among the silks, fleur de sole, a
new form of taffeta with an extremely
soft finish, falls in the most graceful
lines. 1t comes in very new and un-
usual tones, in both plain and figur-
ed surfaces. The floral designs that
appear on many Of these new silks
seem somewhat stiff at first sight
but one soon realizes how very well
suited they are to the period costumes
so affected by our best gowned wo-
men. Some of the new patterns now
in vogue are exact copies of some u
those used in France at the time of
the empire.
