New Bag Designs.

The designers of the newest bags
have appropriated all the fads Of the
dress creators. Some Of these bags
are IN velvet with several tiny rutiies
Of taffeta running around them, and
have fine clasps of silver set with
rhinestones.
Then, to match ones afternoon cos.
tune, there is a bag made in a combi
nation of maize and black silk. The
top of the bag, which resembles the
yoke of a skirt, is made Of the lighter
silk shirred with a large rufIle OF the
dark silk hanging from II.

NEW STYLE EVENING GOWN
Something of a Departure From FASH
ion Is Said to Receive Quite Sc
rious Consideration.

This season the American woman is
considering the adoption of an eve
ming frock in the bodice of which fine
silk net is carried to the collar bone.
Sometimes, in Difference to accepted
custom, there is a V-shaped opening at
the back, but in the majority of gowns
the net comes high back and front I'd
is cklght together at the base Of the
neck and at the beginning of the arm,
and there are sleeves of some kind,
either in the form of floating draperies
that are caught up again at the wrist,
or in the form of flaring elbow sleeves
that are edged with maribou or col
ored beads These gowns are offered
for every kind of evening affair, and
1t is rumored that they will be worn
to some of the smartest balls given in
the country places as a contrast to the
winter evening gowns.

ought TO be proof enough to women who
suffer from those distressing ills pecu-

Vegetable Compound is the medicine
they need.
This good old root and herb remedy
has proved unequalled for these dread

MAKES USEFUL TRAY STAND
Cheap ana Easily Constructed contrW-
ance That Is Bound to Be a
Great Convenience.

Just soap box, with the sides
knocked out and the ends strength
ened by an extra nail or two, then
turned upside down so that the bot
tom becomes the top. And you have a
strong little stand that fits over the
invalids knees and keeps the weight
of the tray from her.
OF course, if you nave all the money
to surround your especial invalid
with all the Iuxuries and easing-up
contrivances Invented, this sugges-
ton is wasted upon you, unless you
happen to have someone sick when
you are deep in the woods or other
inaccessible place. But, if you're
having enough troubles paying doc
tor and drug bills and buying extra
things to tempt that fitful appetite,
the idea is worth your while.

MaapIe Note in Paper.

Strange to say, the magpie note in

lightened to the extent that the design
is in black upon a white background
which is just the reverse of the orig
inal vogue. The black and white wall
paper is used in halls, summer rooms
or boudoirs, and with gay chintz cur
tains and a few upholstered chintz
chairs along with willow furniture
supplies a color scheme that is as
fresh and cool looking for summer az
