Hood’s SarsapariliaWas of Great
Benefit
Wardsboro, Vt.
After the Grip and for Dyspepsia
and Rheumatism.
“C. I. Hood 8.; Co., Lowell, Mass. :-
“I will make a true statement of what Hood’
Sarsaparilla has done for me. Some eight years
ago I was troubled with dyspepsia, and for
three years I tried doctors, took many different
kinds of medicine, and received no benefit. I
was so bad I could not eat hall a cracker with.
out distressing me, and would soon spit it up.
I Lost in Flesh
from 180 pounds to 149 pounds. I frequently
had rheumatism, and was, I thought, pretty
well used up. I bought a bottle of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla, without much faith of its doing me
good. I soon found it was helping me and after
taking three or four bottles, I could eat what I
wanted, without distress. My ankle broke out .
with salt rheum. I began taking Hood’s Sarsa-
parllla, after writing you about it. The swell-
ing has gone down and it is now well. I
have also had the grip. Did but just ull
through, being 65 years old. It left me in ad
shape. Ihad
Dyspepsia as Bad as Ever
besides catarrh, which I never had before.
M y doctor told me I was all worn out, might
patch up and live a year or two. I commenced
to take Hood’s Sarsaoarilla and I am much bet-
ter. I have not had rheumatism Since I took

the first bottle. My digestion is good and I am
gaining in flesh. I think Hood’s Sarsaparllla
is a good honest medicine. I recommend it to
all my friends for dyspepsia and rheumatism
and for cleansing the blood." . . S. PHILLIPS,

Weekly FaShion Hints-

NOPT OUT OF THE MODE.
Silk Is Tory Popular, but All ~“'ool Fabrics
' Are Still “fern.
Although silk is so much worn this sea-
son, fine wool fabrics are by no means out
of the mode. All the old standard weaves
are shown in the new colors, while crepons,
both all wool and silk and wool mixed, are
seen with new variations. They may be
self trimmed or combined with satin and
moire. The latter is worn in all colors, al—
GREE-X CREPON COSTUME.
though black seems to be the favorite, as it
always is in moire. Pretty woolen gowns
are made with a yoke or vest, belt and
gigot sleeves of bengaline’ or moire, the
skirt being trimmed with bias silk bands to
match, or the sleeves may be of the woolen
goods, with a balloon puff of silk reaching
from shoulder to elbow. Fine gimp or gal-
loon trimming is used as a finish.
The popularity of silk seems to ”have giv-
en a fresh impetus to the ribbon trade, and
ribbons are shown in an unusually~ wide
range of color, width and style. Satin faced
moire and double faced satin or peau de
soie come in beautifully soft, rich qualities,
and satin backed velvet ribbon may be
found in all the fashionable shades, but
grosgrain ribbon seems to have gone out in
company with grosgrain silk—both are in-
visible. Ribbon is much used this year not
only for millinery, but for trimming cos-
tumes in bows, bands and ruffles, and is a.
particularly pretty garniture for light sum-
mer goods, such as muslins, nainsooks and
challies. It is not confined to the trimming
of thin gowns, however, but is used on
heavier toilets and wraps by itself or com-
bined with black, white or cream lace.
An illustration is given of a summe.
walking costume composed of thin lettuce
green crepon. The skirt is plain on the
right side, but is draped over the left hip,
the drapery being held in place by a large
silver buckle. The back of the skirt has
no trimming, but the front and sides are
ornamented with two oblique bands of
wide white moire ribbon. The plain round
bodice fastens invisibly under the left arm,
the back being in one piece, plaited in at
the waist. A double band of ribbon is car-
ried from the under arm seam on the right
side across the front to the left shoulder,
where it is fastened under a bow'with long
ends, and a ribbon belt confines the waist.
The gown has gi got sleeves.

THE LlNEN DUSTER’S DAY DONE.
The Passing of a Fright and the Coming- or
Pretty Dust Cloaks.
The linen cluster of 30 years ago has en-
tirely disappeared. It i ' s a strictly util-
itarian garment, sugge ing overalls, in-
geniously constructed so as to not only cov-
er and protect the gown, but conceal every
good point of the wearer, emphasizing the
bad ones if there were any. A‘more unbe-
coming article of apparel could not be de

vised, and low women ever persuaded
themselves to appear in such attire is a
marvel. But PM! have changed all that.
The linen dumcr is obsolete, and in its place
'we have dust cloaks made of surah, gloria
silk or thin worsted goods, fashionably cut,
carefully made, becmningly trimmed and
well fitting. Buttons, stitching, braid,
passementerie and guipure may be used as
a garniture, although all heavy trimming
should be avoided, as these dust cloaks
are strictly hot weather garments, and
lightness is a desideratum. They not only
protect the d fess from dust and Cinders.
but as the costume is completely covered
it is possible to wear on hot days the thin-
nest sort of muslin gown under the cloak
without the fact being apparent. '
There is an unwritten law, which no well
bred woman ever infringes, against wearing
in the street a bodice thin enough to allow
the arms and neck to appear through the
stuff, but a loose coat of thin silk conceals.
the diaphanous gown and adds little to the
warmth of the wearer. These cloaks are
becomingly made, with a snugly fitting
back and straight front confined by a loose
girdle, or they may have a guipure covered
yoke and a full front. The sleeves are usual-
ly loose and often made ,in bishop fashion.
As to material, surahs and thin cloths are
used in all the duller shades.
A sketch is given of a dust cloak in thin
silver gray cloth trimmed with silver but~ -
tons. , It is close fitting in the back, while
the front hangs straight from the shoul-
ders. The large rovers, extending below
the waist and sharply hollowed out at the
top, are fastened back by buttons. The
pockets, placed high on the hips, are also
adornedwith buttons, as are the close cuffs
of the boutfant sleeves. The plain stand-
ing collar is surrounded by aflaring orna-
mental collnr lined with silk. The black
straw hat which accompanies the cloak is
trimmed wi:h Muck ostrich tips.
. TY'DI ' !OI.LET.
,II .-..-... , a,
Ficklo FaslxiorTil'ns Changed From One Ex-
treme to the Other.
Fashion has entirely changed her mind
on the subject of outside coats since last win-
ter. Then the full skirt'of the garment
hung nearly to the knees, but new short
jackets are shown, flaring indeed, but with-
out a great deal of materialin then . They
are close fitting in the back, but may be
either tight or loose in front, although they
are usually double breasted, and large rev-
ers are the almost invariable rule. Big
carved buttons of colored pearl are used
upon them, and bonfiant sleeves give the
fashionable breadth of shoulder. Thin c0-
vert cloth is the favorite material and is
newer than plain, glossy finishedgoods, al— '
though the latter are still worn. ,
The tan shades are less yellow than those
worn last year, and browns, grays and
beaver shades are well represented in addi-
tion to the standard black and navy blue.
Some of the jackets are lined throughout
JET TRIMMED COSTUME.
with silk, but as that renders them tor.
heavy and burdensome for general use the
majority are unlined except in front. No
trimming is used beyond the large buttons
down the front, already mentioned, the
large rovers and the plain stitching em-
ployed as a. finish giving the jacket 3. sufli
ciently jaunty effect. N 0 full length coats
and no wing sleeved garments have been
displayed among the new importations.
’ For street costumes the round bodice
still prevails. Sometimes there is a narrow
ripple basque below the waist, but the
plain belted corsage is the rule. Plain
skirts are, also the rule and so far greatly
outnumber the double or draped ones al-
though fashion prophets declare thatlthe
latter are sure to conquer before long. The
average skirt is more than four yards
around the bottom at present, and contains,
therefore,enough goo s to give it an appreci-
able weight. .If an ample second skirt be
added to it, it will be no light- burden to
carry. The horizontal bands of trimming
so much used last season are giving place
to flounces, braid and other decoration ar—
ranged about the foot of the skirt, and
many French models show the skirt left
entirely plain.
A gown of biscuit zibeline has a flaring
skirt devoid of any trimming and a full
round bodice gathered in under a belt of
white satin ribbon. Over this is worn an
Eton jacket of velvet of the same color,
with narrow rovers and gigot sleeves. It is
embroidered all over with fine jet/beads and
cabochons, and the lower part of the sleeves
is decorated with immense jet buttons.

FASHIONS ‘FOR CHILDREN.
I‘Vhite Pique Baby Shoequre Ono Tory
Pretty Spring Novelty.
One piece gowns are still the favorite
style for little girls and children. For very
little‘people the fullness is usually allowed
to fall from the shoulders, although some-
times the old fashioned baby waist is seen,
gathered into a belt, with the full skirt
sewed on. In gowns for older girls the
bodice, however fancifully it may be cut
and trimmed, is yet attached to the skirt
in the same manner and buttons at the
back. Full Shirred or plaited bodices are
preferred, with skirts gathered all the way
round. For little boys not yet out of kilts
pretty sailor suits are shown made of white
or figured duck and trimmed with colored
cambric or embroidery. The skirts are
scant, while the blouses have wide turn

over collars, with a big tie or a frill down
the front. In thicker goods a neat suit
was seen with a; kilt of green and blue
plaid brightened with a thread of yellow.
Figured sheer white nainsook is used for
the most charming baby. dresses of the year,
and even long infant slips are shown in this
material. They are trimmed sparingly with
fine valenciennes lace and are very carefully
made. A novelty is shown in the shape of
White pique baby shoes, with a strap to fas-
ten across the ankle and a tiny rosette of
lace or embroidery secured to the front of
the shoe by a pearl button. These Cinder-
ella slippers, with the little short socks that
go with them, are fit only for hot weather
wear and should be replaced on cooler days
by kid shoes and longer stockings made of
fine cashmere. Pique holds a prominent
place among children’s materials this sea-
son, being made not only into shoes, sun-
bonnets and hats, but into kilts, blouses and
coats. In the finer qualities, however, it is
rather too thick and firm in texture to be
a comfortable fabric for wear on warm days.
A sketch is given of a. little girl’s party
dress. It is made of thin woolen crepon.
The skirt is trimmed with four graduated
i‘lounces of the material, while the full
blouse bodice, which is cut square around
the neck, is trimmed with two ruflles. The
puffed elbow sleeves are also finished with
tworutfles, and the junction of the bodice
and the skirt is concealed by a belt.

of House Gowns. .
Although the pretty flowered challies in
delicate natural tints have great attrac-
tions, there is something about the close
- persian patterns, in two or three shades of
one color on a light ground. the general ef—
fect being a medium tint, that is more sat-
isfactory for house and tea gowns. Of course
persian designs are much too old for chil-
dren and young girls, who should wear
only flowered or fancy figured goods. These
oriental patterns are well represented in
red, purple and rose on a cream back-
ground, but as the ground is almost come
pletely covered the general color effect is
not light. .
The usual assortment of china silk
gowns is shown in yellow, turquoise, nile
green and rose. They are usually trimmed
with valenciennes lace and insertion, which
are light enough to combine well with
thin silk. Valenciennes is, in fact, favor-

ably looked upon this season, although it is
rather delicate for underwear, as it does not. '
well bear the frequent launderings neces-
sary. .
It cannot be said thntthe empire fash-
ions are really unpopular, since they are
often used for indoor costumes. When
the entire empire efiect is not desired, the
ordinary long waisted, close fitting back is
made withafull front gathered close un-
der the bosom, with perhaps the additional
restraint of a loose girdle of metal or
heavy cord dropping from the waist line.
As faras house gowns are concerned, one
may do as one cheeses and may range
from accurately classical drapery to gowns
of so thoroughly 8. nineteenth century
character that they can be worn only by
the ultra. small waisted species of woman.
A word to the wise is sufficient, however——
and most women are wise about clothes,
having a natural artistic tendency. Since
fashion permits, nay encourages. loose
house dresses, take advantage of the fact
and allow yourself breathing room.
A sketch is given for a Paris model of a
house gown in heliotrope glace silk and
ivory silk crepon. It is trimmed with helio-
trope velvet and pearl passementerie of an
oriental pattern. The princess body of
the gown is of silk, while the loose part is
of crepon. This part is gathered into a
narrow low necked yoke of velvet, cut in
three scallops and bordered with passemen—
terie. A piece of velvet, scalloped and trim-
med to correspond. falls over the top of
the sleeves and joins the yoke. These nar-
row velvet straps. sewed with cabochons
and terminated with pearl passementerie
pieces, fall from the yoke. Velvet bands,
stridded with cabochons, fasten thelcrepon,
part to the body of the gown. The bouf~
fant elbow sleeve of crepon is surmounted
by a short silk sleeve-embroidered with
pearls. A double puffing of silk trims the
bottom of the gown. JUDIC CHOLLET.
'FANCY TRIFLES IN SILVER.
An Almost Endless List of Pretty Things
For the Escritoire.
There is no end to the list of pretty silver
trifles intended for the escritoire. Among
them are pen and pencil 'cases, stampboxes
and trays in numbcrless pretty designs and
some charming little taper holders made
after the pattern of flat candlesticks. These
are both round and square, but the pret-
tiest are the heart shaped ones, embossed
around the edge and having a. handle placed
at the division of the wide end of the heart.
The wax tapers are of the diameter of alead
pencil and come in red, blue, yellow, green
and pink. .
The fashion of wide sill; ruffles on couch
cushions has not yet been abandoned, al‘
though it gives them rather a millinery
look. The stamped silks and velvets used for
covering the pillows are extremely pretty.

The rococo gold open work photograph
frames, which were so expensive 9. short
time ago, are being sold at greatly reduced
prices and are really very attractive. They
come in cabinet size, both oval and square,
and are provided with a glass face and a.
brace at the back. Another thing that is
selling at a reduction is lizard skin. For-
merly the cardcases, bags, purses and other
articles made of it commanded a high price;
but, whether it be on account of hard times
or a sudden surplus of lizards, they are sell-
