. After Diphtheria
In Weak, Discouraging Condition
Until Hood’s Sarsaparilla Gave the
Strength and Vigor of Health.
.“C. I. Hood & 00., Lowell, Muss:
“ I feel very grateful for what. Hood’s Sarsag
parilla has done for my boy and shall always
seize every opportunity I may have to praise it.

but he was spared to us. After he got up around
the house, he did not regain his strength, and
his flesh was very badly bloated. He continued
under skilful medical treatment, but the medi‘
'cine did not do him any good. We became very
much discburaged. but gave Hood’s Sarsapa-
rilla a trial. He had taken it only a short time
before there ‘was a change for the better. He

THE BLAZER is eAcK.
It Has Partly Routed the Eton Jacket: and
Sharesl’ublic Favor.
Light tan andmodc colors are much
worn in thin wool goods. Besides covert
cloth, Cheviot and serge there are several
new weaves having a rough finish, with
boucle effects in brighter threads, and all
wool and silk and wool goods with wide
crepon wrinkles. These lightweight ma-
terials are made up in various pretty Styles.
A neat light gray Cheviot costume seen the
other day had a. plain flaring skirt, of
which the only trimming was three 3 inch
bands of gray velvet arranged vertically on
the front breadth. The coat bodice was plain
and had a. velvet collar and gigot sleeves
entirely of velvet. The velvet pocket flaps
were lined with light violet silk, as were
the flaring velvet cuffs. This gown was
worn by a woman verging on middle ago.
Another more unique costume was com-
posed of thin fawn colored goods and had
a. perfectly plain skirt. The bodice was a

sort of Russian blouse made of the same
goods accordion plaitcd. . It was belted in,
and the basque extended at least 201nchcs
below the waist. ,v
The blazer, which was superseded in
popularity by the Eton jacket, has returned
to share the favor accorded to the latter,
but appears in more frivolous forms than
it wore two years ago. The addition of
gigot sleeves, ripple collar, double rovers
and big buttons changes it greatly, and it
is often still further modified by having
the basque part out in large points. The
Eton jaCket is alsos'omcwhat altered from
last year's styles, being more trimmed and
having more elaborate sleeves. It. extends
to the bottom of the waist instead of stop
ping above the belt in the flgaro fashion.
The double skirt is much employed
Sometimes the upper skirt, slightly lifted
by a. strap or rosette, shows a different
' skirt beneath, but more often both skirts
are of the same material. The subject of
today’s sketch is a. double skirted costume
The over-
skirt has a band of' stitching .around the
bottom and is caught up with a brown ro-
sette. The Eton jacket is trimmed with
braiding and stitching and has two collars
—the first of white cloth, the second of
brown moire. The tight sleeves have a cir-
cular pufl from shoulder to elbow. A
blouse of plaid surah in red, yellow and
broWn on a cream round is worn and is
confined at the waigét by pwrinkled belt of
moire. J UDIC CHOLLET.
A PAIR OF IDEALIZEDHSCISSORS.
Judie Chollet Describes Them and other
Articles For Use and Ornament.
Women who seldom touch a needle are
usually the ones who indulge in elaborate
workbaskets and are most fastidious about
the fitting up thereof. The skilled dress-
maker uses a pair of shears as long as her
arm, a. yellow linen tape measure and a
steel thimble and keeps her needlesdn their
native paper, but the amateur has a recep-
tacle lined with silk puffings and furnished
with all the modern improvements in the
Way of gold tilimblcs, silver emery balls ’
and pearl handled bodkins. One of the
prettiest additions to this nest of wonders
is a pair of silver mounted scissors, tho
bows of which, instead of being plain utili-
tarian ovals, arc embossed, chased, floriated

idealized scissors may be obtained in gold
as well as silver by the extravagantly in-

The n-"vcst thing in fancy lamp shades
is a. gig 3 covered thickly Witt. Chrysan-
themum pc to s in pink or yellow. The
petals are of cambric, cut and stamped
into- the proper form, and they are fastened
on a fine wire foundation. '
Tiny coin purses are shown in lizard
skin and kid, having astamped decoration
in gold and . bearing on one side a metal
initial enameled in gold and colors. . Ster-
ling silver initials in various styles may be
purchased separately. .
One of the latest novelties is a tiny um.
brella strap. It fastens with a shield
shaped silvm' clasp, having an embossed
border and a plain middle, on which is en-
graved a monogram. The strap is just
large enough to go around the tips of an
umbrella when it is closed.
White corduroy is the reigning favorite
at present among‘materials used for fancy
work. Although it defaces very easily,
much elaborate embroidery is lavished On
it. A dainty robe for a baby carriage is
' shown, made of this goods, having in the
center a monogram at least 8 inches long,
' worked solidly in shades of goldcolored
silk. Among the letters are intertwined
sprays of forgctmenots in the natural col-
ors. The robe is bordered with wide lace
crocheted in light blue knitting silk. Col-
ored corduory has been much used for up-
hol'stering of late and maybe found in
shades for cushion covers. a

'Neq Things In Mlllincry That Win Please .-
Evcry Mdid‘s Fancy.
So many pretty things in millinery are
shown, by the dealers that it is difficult for
the purchaser to make a. choice. Straws
of all colors, both fine and coarse, chip,
neapolitan braid, lace and jetted wire are
all worn. It seems as if every material
that was ever used for bats and bonnets is
in vogue this season. Buckles, feathers,
flowers, ribbon, velvet, spangles, large

pins, ‘ beads and all kinds of ornaments
are employed for trimming, and every in-
dividual ought to be able to find some-
thing to please her fancy. ‘
Large imported hats of white lace are
displayed Shirred on wires, with a. deep
flounce or valance of lace hanging down
all around the .brim.- White neapolitan
flats, looking like frostwork, are caught
up fancifully and adorned with lace and
white ostrich tips. There is rather atend-
ency to trim small round hats with a ro-
sette or bunch of flowers on each side, ac-
curately balanced, but the style is not a be-
coming one and is too suggestive of a. side
wheel steamboat to be attractive to any-
body cxcept the persons who would wear
a' tin pan for a. bonnet if that headgear
happened to be announced as the fashion.
A pretty but soon the other day was' of
fancy straw, in the natural color, profusely
trimmed with daisies, cornflowers and
poppies, among which were placed small
sprays of yellowish lilies of the valley. A
bit of cream lace and a gold ornament
completed the decoration. When flowers
are used, ,a spray is usually allowed to rest
upon the hair. It may be placed at the
back, front or side, whichever suits best
the shape of the hat and the face. Green
being a popular color this year, a quantity
of foliage and seed heads are employed for
trimming, and artificial oats made of feath-
ers are a novelty. -
The hat of which an illustration is given
is of very coarse straw. It has a black
crown, but the brim, except the outer
edge, is gold colored. It is plainly faced
with black gulpure, bordered with a band
of gold Spangled galloon. The brim is
bent becomingly and caught up on the left
side by a rosette of black moire ribbon,
which touches the hair. The trimming
consists of a bow of black moire ribbon fas-
tened by a large gold buckle and black jet-
ted Prince of Wales tips, ,

THE TAILOR MADE GIRL.
Does She Dress “'ith an Eye to Pleasing the
{en Alone? ,
It has been asserted many times that
women dress with an eye to pleasing men
only. That is a belief very flattering to
men, and they naturally adopt it with en
thusiasm and cling to it with tenacity. It
is noticeable, however, in, this connection,
that women dress quite as carefully when
they are going to attend a meeting of a
woman’s club as they do when they expect
to be subjected to masculine scrutiny, and
that in an art simdents’ sketch class made

LIGHT CLOTH COSTUME.
up entirely of women quite as much pains
is taken by the amateur model to secure a
becoming costume and a. pretty pose as
when the class is a. mixed one. Women
undoubtedly like the admiration of men,
but they like the admiration of other wom—
en‘ also. , A compliment from one wom-
an to another, is far more likely to be sin-
cere than a. compliment from a man to a
woman, especially as a certain sort of man
considers it incumbent upon him to inter-
lard his remarks to women with flattering
sentences, regardless of truth or even prob-
able fiction. .
Somebody announces every now and
then that men do not like masculine look-
ing garments on women;/ that starched
shirt Dosoms and cuffs, stiff hats and man-
like coats are their abomination, and that
they wish women to be in everything the
opposite of themselves. Nevertheless tai‘
lor made fashions have practically no ri-
vals in the average man’s esteem if his
[comments are to be taken as an indication
of his taste. The plainer the skirt, the
tighter the stitched bodice, the higher the
starched collar, the nattier the four-in—
hand scarf and the doggier the dogSkin
gloves the more approval do they win. Ap;
patently a man likes to be beaten on his
own ground when it is a. question of dress.
Speaking of tailor made costumes, sev-
eral new and attractive French models are
seen; Parisians avoid the, strict severity
of English tailor fashions and infect their
designs with a taint of frivolity. The
ketch shown is of acostume of thin covert
c 0th. It has a draped skirt finished with
stitching. The corsage, which is thered
in beneath a corselet, is also stitc ed and

sleeves have along tight cuff and a double

Americans Should Get TheroOftener—Gar- '
den Party Gowns For Such Outings.
In spite of the fog, frequent rain and ‘re-
pma’rkable uncertainty of climate, out of
door amusements are exceedingly popular
in England. The English spend 'a large
proportion of their sunny summer days in
boating, picnicking, making cxcursionsto
points of interest and attendingpr giving
lawn parties. ' It seems rather odd t
'Americans, who have in general a. ar
lbrighter. and more dependable climate to
,count upon, do not take more kindly to
open air diversions. They play tennis, to
be sure, but that is almost the only out of
dloor recreation in which they indulge as a
c ass.
The French and Germans, whose cli-
mate is more like our 0WD,‘ are also open
air people and delight to be out of doors
even though inanimate nature be repre-
sented only by a. stunted grapevine or the
trellised vestibule of a restaurant.

country, which is yet in its childhood,
should. have lost the primeval desire for
sylvan surroundings which is still felt in
all its force by nations hoary with antiqui- ,.
ty. The shopgirls of Paris spend their
weekly holiday in the suburbs, where they
can we green fields and drink their thin
wine under a leafy lattice, but American
men and women of the same class rush to
the most crowded thoroughfares of the
city on Sunday to find their recreation and
enjoyment. When they enter the public
parks, they throng the edges of the drives .
and swell the crowd in the main paths,
ignoring the small green alleys and.» leafy
nooks within their reach. It is not a de-
sire for out of doors that inspires them,
but a craving to be a part of the jostling
mass of humanity for which there is not
room under cover. .
It“ is the same with the wealthier class-
es. The most crowded mountain and sea-
islde caravansaries are the most attractive
'to the summer visitant. Except for the
daily sea bath or sentimental sunset stroll,
the guests spend their days in dawdling
about the ,verandas or billiard rooms and
their nights in dancing in overheated halls.
" They'do these things better in France.
They associate with pastoral nature there,
althou h they make her wear rouge and
h , eels. Even the modlstes design
t on prettiest gowns to be worn against
the background she spreads for them. A
' sketch is given of a gown suitable for a
lawn party. It is of lettuce green and
white china. silk draped with white :liber-
ty satin. The garniturc is of guipure, with
violet velvet rosettes.

REDINGOTES COMING TO LlFE.
A Pretty One of i’obgee That Is Intended
For Summer Traveling.
Whenever princess gowns are in vogue
the rcdingoto is sure to show indications
of coming to life. It insinuated itself in-
conspicuously among last winter’s fash-
ions and is seen again this summer. in sev-
eral forms. It is a never settledaquestion
whether stout women look best in plain or
draped gowns. The theory of many per-
sons is that closc, plain styles diminish the
apparent size, while their opponents de-
clare that drapery shrouds and conceals
the real bulk of the form, persuading the
eye of the observer that the major portion
of the figure is composed of surplus cloth.
It is a poor rule which will not work both
ways. We all know that a very slender
woman appears to greatest advantage in
frills and furbelcws, and therefOre it would
seem that plain garments would best be-
PONGEE REDINGOTE.
come too plump women. At least it is'a
recognized fact that breadth of form ap-
pears badly in conjunction with horizontal‘
lines; therefore the round waist is to be
avoided by stout women, who look their
best in costumes the lines of which are
long and sweeping. . The long coat styles
and the redingoto should commend them-
'selves to women of average height who
weigh over 1 5,0 pounds. If the shoulders are
square and broad, tight low sleeves should
be adopted, but if the shoulders and hips
are small in proportion to the waist, as is
often the case, wide. sleeves and trimming
about the shoulders and bust will make
the waist appear smaller.
. Redingotes are seen mainly among out-
lide garments as yet, and then not over-
plentifully. - A sketch is given of one in-
tended for summer traveling which is very
‘pretty. It is made of pongee and is double
breasted, the front being ornamented with.
large buttons. It comes within three
inches of the bottom of the gown, The
wide, full collar and revere give it charac-
ter. The gigot sleeves are of satin.
