Ideas of the French.
The French people believe. always
that a suit which deviates slightly from
the strictly tailored variety is much
better style than the one which ad-
heres too closely to all of the masculine
characteristics. They insist that ii is,
in the end, a more attractively femi-
nine thing If it always keeps in mind
the fact that 1t is to be worn by a
woman And surely their suits remain
as practical as ours, which must be
more closely fitted. more hardy tall

Over fifty years ago a young
physician practiced widely in a
rural district and became famous
for his uniform success in the
curing of disease. This was Dir.
Pierce, who afterwards estab-
lished himself in Buffalo. N. Y,
and placed one of his prescriptions,
which he called Golden Medical
Discovery" in the drug stores of
the United States so that the pub
lie could easily obtain this very
remarkable tonic, corrective and
blood maker. DIR. Pierce manu-
featured this Discovery" from
roots and barks "a corrective
remedy, the ingredients of which
nature had put in the fields and
forests, for keeping US healthy.
Few folks or families now living
have not at sometime or other used
this Golden Medical Discovery"
for the stomach, liver and heart.
Over twenty four million bottles
of this tonic and blood remedy
have been sold in this country.

unevenness of their design allows some
slight imperfections to exist without
being too broadly visible.
AS for the Partisan idea of all that
IS lovely In woman's attire, there is
the little Lanvin model for pertinent
comparison. That has all the softness,
transparency and grace that they con-
slider essentials of woman's gowning.
The materials are black taffeta and
tulle, and the little flowers which are
of the tulle overdress are made of
cleverly twisted pieces of the taffeta
with golden centers. No. there Is moth
ing decidedly new about this charm
ingly simple frock, but its character
is fine and its tone is one of beauty
in all that the French seem to be de-
manding for standard.
Much lace continues to be seen on
the dresses that have been exhibited
at the Partisan races, where all the
style tendencies of the season to come
are put forward. One of the newest
dresses seen at this time had founda-
ton of figured silk made In chemise
fashion, with quite short sleeves and a
rounded neck. There was lace cape
over the back and lace underskirt
that showed for a space of about FIVE
inches beneath the silk hem of the
gown. 1t was a graceful thing. with
the straightest of silhouette lines. but
with the airiness and floating quality
that lace gives.
chemise Dress Holds Own.
The chemise dress, indeed, holds its
own in a most remarkable way. Those
who are returning from Paris say that
nothing else can be seen on the boule-
wards Sometimes they are embroid-
cred over every inch of the surface
that shows, sometimes they are mere

cleverly designed rows of embroidered
stitching, sometimes the embroidery

carbohydrates and heterogeneous mat

amount of strychnine present, acts as
q stomach stimulating element.
.'The Hypophosphites of Lime, Soda,
Potassium, Manganese. Quinine and
Strychnine are too well known for the
powerful influence they exert upon the
wasted nerve tissues and upon the
lungs for me TO dwell upon their eff

rich the blood is also present In SOL

Sherry wine not only acts as base to

Feet.

To dream you battle your feet de-
notes trouble in collecting money
which is due you. To dream of large
or deformed feet foretells a journey
which Will cost you many tears. To
scratch the bottom of your feet de-
notes treachery and flattery. To have
no feet at all is an evil omen; it fore
tells some great calamity. Cold feet
f0retells a quarrel With a friend.
