new shad~ of violet is to be clematis. Altogether the shades which are to be popularized, are ravishingly beauti- full.
 Under the charge of Miss M. George Goetz, the millinery department was a thing of beauty and feast to the eye Throughout the day there was a fluttering of feminine eyes from nE1 delectable creation to another until the eyes were lost in a maize of the milliner's art Many casting longing glances at individual types and fear ing that the chance delayed might be lost to them, hastily made purchases, and bore away their beloved purcil- ase.
 The new style hats for this season are trimmed in oranges, rasins, to- matoes and lemons; very small and close fitting. The new shades are Citron, Cuban Brown and Chartreuss: Baby bonnets and small tailored hats for the children from 10 to 12 years are also being shown.
 In the silk department most prom inently seen was Changeable Taverns Pussy Willow, Media, Brocades, Crepe de Chene, Poplins, Faille and Moire for street and evening wear.
 The windows were beautifully decorated Reception gow's i'll Minerette Green and Violet were shown, with beautiful streamers o1 silk ribbons ars laces, all of which made a most beautiful showing. The opening will continue throughout to- day.

BEAUTIFUL SHOWING
 OF SPRING MILLINERY
OPENING OF MEWEN MILLINERY DEPARTMENT ATTRACTS
 MA.tY WOMEN.
Beautiful Array of COlors shown and Many Selections are Made
 During Day.

Although simplicity is to be the rule this season in the matter of ap- parel and color, and the aim will be to avoid a flamboyant array, as to individual style, the pretty, and even one might say gorgeous array offered for the inspection of Pine Bluff maids and matrons yesterday by the Mo- Ewen Dry Goods Company on the event of the Spring opening, caused quite a ripple of wonderment. The tasteful arrangement, delicate touch
 es to show background or ensemble ef- fleets, beautiful patterns, with most tasteful interior decoration of the es
 tablishment, served to not only harmonize with, but to enhance the beauty of the display, feminine Pine Bluff came, saw and was enraptured.
 Hours and days had been spent in securing the patterns and assort- ments; experts had this in charge; everything that any other city has assuredly is here. Miss Pine Bluff has the pick and choice, and the sis ter cities of larger size for once, at least, cannot boast that they have things dear to the feminine heart that McEwen's does not carry, and really, there is this season bit of exclusiveness about McEwen's, and will, therefore, be about Pine Bluff.
 While simplicity of garb dominates, there is much beauty in the new shades, colors which cannot fail to attract and cause gush of enthusi- astic praise. The new tango shades are that of Cuba and Panama, indica- tive of thespalmy countries. The new shade of straw is cisron. while the dark wine shade this season will be known at beetroot Another new shade is styled primrose, while the

THE SERVANT
 QUESTION SOLVED
So Far as This Lady is Concerned She Doesn't Seem to
 Need One.

Pollock, La.-Mrs. T. $. Blair, of this town, has the following to say. which should be of interest to women generally: "For months my health was very bad, and the medicines took did not seem to do me any good.
 q was very weak and nervous, and some days, I could not be up.
 ''I asked my husband b get me a bottle of Cardui, the woman's tonic, to try and before I had taken one bot tie was up and aoing my work. Be- fore 1 commenced taking Cardui I had such spells was not able to do anything. Now, I have only taken three bottles of Cardui in all, and I feel fine.
 "A few months ago 1 weighed 135 pounds. Now 1 weigh 15S, and I do all my own work, cook, wash and milk-and feel like 1 did when I was sweet sixteen.'
 Taking Cardui has cured me-
 As a relief from the distressing symptoms of womanly ailments, noth- ing has been found during the past 50 years that would take the place of Cardui.
 It's superiority is still unquestioned as a mild, building tonic for cases ot womanly weakness where tired na- ture needs help. Made from purely vegetable ingredients, Cardui has no bad after effects and can do you noth- ing but good.
 Try Cardui.
