Now that the cape has. been sue
c~essfully launched, we are assur-
ed that it's popularity will be in
creased by the variety of style,
material and color in which it will
be produced. The first capes seen
were long, full and rather plain,
usually with lining of a brilliant,
contrasting color. The little vest
or coatee has now put in it's ap-
pearance.
The attractive cape Of the sketch
is a good illustration of this . 1t
was worn at one of the recent
races at Auteuil, where the ladies
attended not only for the sake of
the race, but for the very latest in
advance styles, which are sure to
be seen there. The material used
was military blue ~broadcloth with
the collar and vest. the latter
shaped very much like some Of
the bolero Jackets we are now
wearing, Of a rather dark and ex-
tremely rich shade of rose. The
vest crosses in front, where it
fastened with one large fancy
button. The cape proper is fas-
tened to the coatee at the shout
ders.
The beauty of any cape depends
much upon the way it is worn. The
roma who has faithfully acquir-
ed the debutante SLOUGH and
wishes to wear a cape, will have
to desert the SLOUGH, for the erect
carriage is necessary to wear a
cape well.

GOOD DIGESTION

Importance Of Preventing Food Fer
mention In Stomach.
Good digestion usually means good
health. So long as the stomach does it's
work properly disease can find no lOdg-
nent in the human system; the liver,
kidneys and intestines will perform
their work perfectly and remain in per-
feet health; but permit anything to in
tertere with the proper digestion of
food, an unending train of rouhles is
that will upset the stomach and inter-
fere with digestion is an excess of acid,
usually caused by food fermentation.
Food fermentation is due to chemical
action in the food itself. This fermen-
tation causes the formation of gas, or
wind. as we'll as acid, resulting in the
unnatural di]stention of the stomach
and the burning by the acid of the deli
cate lining of the stomach.
Medicine and tonics cannot relieve
this ConditiOn-they usually make It
worse. The fermentation and acid are
to blame and these must be overcome
and prevented by taking after meals a
teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia in a
little hot or cold water. Physicians
recommend bisurated magnesia espec-
mentatlon of food n neutralizes the
acid Instantly, making it bland and
harmless, without irritating the stom-
aCh in any way. Get a little bisurated
magnesia from your druggist and try
1t the next time your food ferments and
upsetS your stomach. Note how quick
ly the acid is neutralized and how soon
you forget that you have such a thing
as a stomach.-AdVt.

They Condemn the President.

Harper's Weekly: Four groups have
condemned the presidents conduct of
the Mexican situation:
l. Certain investors and standpat-
ters generally. This group includes
those who believe Indians, Dagoes,
Greasers and people generally except
themselves need to be governed by a
strong hand" like that Of Diaz. Il + #
2. Same party opponents. The mem =
bers in general Of the other parties
(the rank and file, to coin a phrase)
have been notably fair, but this does
not hold Of some Of the leaders"
3. Yellow journals at large. This
species of newspaper has done good
IN the world, along with harm, but
when war or n fierce and salable ex-
element is in question its showing is
a poor one.
4. Those fair-minded observers land
there are many who, with no self
interest and no bias, think the presi-
dent assured too much when he un =
dertook to help the poorer Mexicans
against exploitation by bandits and bv
the less conscientious investors.

But if friendly conferences between

YOU FEEL POORLY
IN THE SPRING

In the spring your blood needs
cleansing and enriching, largely be-
cause your diet has been chiefly heavy
and your life mostly indoors during
the winter. There is some eruption on
your face anC body, your appetite Is
i.oor, your sleep is broken, and you are
tired all the time.
You need to take Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Ask your druggist for 1t. It
makes the pure red blood that will
make you feel better, look better, eat
and sleep better. Get it today.-Advt.

many people do not dance. some nao"

The muffled drums sad roll has beat
The soldiers last tattoo;
No more on LIES parade shall meet
That brave and fallen few.
On flames eternal camping ground
Their silent tents are spread.
And Glory guards, with solemn round,
The bivouac Of the dead.
No Of the foes advance,
Now swells upon the wind;
No troubled thought at midnight
haunts
OF loved ones left behind;
No vision of the morrow's strife
The warriors dream alarms;
No braying horn nor screaming fife
At dawn shall call to arms.
Their shivered swords are red with
rust,
Their plumed heads are bowed;
Their naughty banner, trailed in dust,
Is now their martial shourd-
And plenteous funeral tears have
dashed
The red stains from each brow;
And the proud forms, by battle gashed,
Are free from anguish now.
The neighing troop, the flashing blade.
The bugle's stirring blast,
The charge, the dreadful cannonade,
The din and shout, are past;
Nor wars wild note nor glory's peal
Shall thrill with fierce delight
Those breasts that neVermore may
feel
The rapture Of the fight.
Like the fierce Northern hurricane
That sweeps his great plateau.
Flushed with the triumphs yet to gain,
Came down the serried foe.
Who heard the thunder Of the fray
Break DER the field beneath
Knew we'll the watchword of that day
Was Victory or DEATH"
Full many a northers breath has
swept
Ger Angostura's plain,
And long the plying sky has wept
Above its mouldered slain.

PAYING FOR NET WEIGHT.

There will be general satisfaction
over the enforcement of hi new net
weight law. which became effective
yesterday through the signatures of the
secretaries of the treasury, agriCul-
ture and commerce. Penalties will not
be exacted before September 3, says
The New York Sun. Thus the manu-
f~acturers OF foods sold in interstate
m will ave a chance to make
the necessary readjustments; but from
now on they will be expected as rap
idly as possible to mark all packages,
bottles or other containers holding
more than one fluid ounce, to show the
net weight Of volume of the contents.
This law, in addition to enabling
the consumer to know precisely how
much Of a commodity he is paying for,
should cause manufacturers to be much
more economical in containers, and we
ought to return to the more sensible
fbasiS Of buying primarily an article OF
food instead Of a pretty box. This
cannot help but have an influence upon
merchandise in general, and should
greatly reduce the present complaint
that unjustl1ably expensive wrappers

know the difference if the manufac-
fturer continued to urn out his com

Egood the discrepancy. But inasmuch
las the new law forbids his beneitins

Isinaplest way out will be for the manu-
Ifacturer to do up his commodity in the
tcheapest packages which are both
$sanitary and serviceable.

Parcel Post May Help to Reduce the
 Cost of Living.

In the current issue of theFarm and Preside Postmaster--G General Burles- on writes an exceedingly interesting article about the parcel post. He pre- sents many practical suggestions about it and tells a number of inter esting stories illustrating his points. In the following extract he suggests that the parcel post may reduce the cost of living:
 "The era of war prices inaugurated because of the conflict in Europe has greatly increased interest in every de- vice that gives promise of counteract- ing the tendency to increased cost of living; and among these agencies we are very sure that none will do so much for the people-for producer and consumer alike-as the facilities now offered by the parcel post. It is only necessary to understand them, to use them intellgently, and to divide the advantage between producer and con sumer.'
