"C. I. Hood 8: Co., Lowell. Mass:

“ Gentlemen: Hood’s Sarsaparilla has done
so much for my children that it is with pleasure
and a feeling of thankiuiness that, I write for

our confidence and gratitude for Hood's Sarsa.

on account of the itching sensation. I had read
of the good Hoocts Sarsaparilla had done in
cases of salt rheum, so I decided to give it a
trial. Myrtle, live years old, had several erup-
tions on her forehead, while Bernice, six" years
old, suffered much from sores back of her ears.
After the first bottle had been taken the little
ones beganto improve; they seemed brighter
and the humor

Began to Disappear.
They. have taken five bottles and Myrtle is
entirely cured. Her flesh is smooth and soft,
her health is better and she is bright and
sprightly as any child of five years of age.
From the start, Bernice has improved and the
humor is nearly all gono.and she is in better

Weekly Fashion Hints-

FOR BOATING AND THE counrnv.

Summeii Outing Costumes This Year Arc of
Many Hued Stripes.

Outing fiannels are shown having a col-
ored stripe on a white ground, and as they
wash well and ,easily they are useful for
making up into blouse waists for boating
and country wear, besides being appropri-
ate for children’s outing frocks wherecool-
ness and frequent changes are the chief
considerations. White cotton duck is also
seen having broad blue, pink, brown or
black stripes, besides more delicately col-

 

 

OUTIKG COSTUME. .
ored styles, and a new variety of blue
denim has been brought out, thin and
fine, but very firm, which is intended to

be used as 'drcss material. Brown and
navy blue sergcs of good width and qual-
ity are sold at a low price now and maybe
made into attractive outing suits, having
an Eton jacket or a blazer with a wide
collar, and worn with a blouse of wash
silk in harmonizing ”tints. These wash
silks are prettier this season than they ever .
were before. They are usually striped and
are shown in all shades of rose, green, yel-
low, blue and violet, combined with white
or with each other. Plain white linen is
also a good material for blouses to be worn
under a jacket, as it is extremely cool and
launders beautifully, but linen bodices
cannot be obtained ready made. ,

The skirts of outing costumes are most
often made without a lining to insure
lightness, and the edges of the seams in-
side are neatly bound with bias strips of
silk or cambric. These unlined skirts
must be worn over a stifi' potticoat in or-
der to make them hang well. Laced out-
ing shoes for women are made of tan calf
and are cut like a. man’s in every respect.
They have a low heel, but a very pointed
toe, and are devoid of all ornamentation.

. An illustration is given of an outing
costume of choviot and silk. The skirt is
laid iii wide box plaits and has several
rows of stitching near the bottom. With
it is worn a silk blouse with gigot sleeves.
A novel triple cape forms a part of the
costume. It' is of cheviot, like the skirt,
and is out in a sort of yoke shape, the edges
being finished with rows of stitching.

GOOD AND BAD TASTE.

Judie Cliollet Defines Them and Describes
a Gown In Gold and Blue.

What constitutes the difference between
good and bad taste? Good taste may be
fairly defined as an intuitive perception of
the fitness of things, but, it is impossible

to lay down rigid rules of color and form '—

by following which the efi'cct of good taste
may be secured. In the matter of dress,
for instance, what is in good taste at
one time or on one person may be cx~

BLUE AND GOLD TAFFETA DOWN.
ecrabletastc elsewhere. After a. few broad ,
laws of universal application have been
observed there remain a host of minor con-

siderations which must be settled by each -

individual according to her particular re-
quirements. Certain persons maintain
that only dark and dull colors should be
worn in the street, because they are neat
and unaggrcssive. Others insist that
brighter tints are’cqually appropriate and
give an effect of life and cheerfulness, be-
sides being more becoming. One author-
ity declares that short walking skirts are
ungraceful, unfeminine and .. immodest,
and only a woman who is unduly anxious
to display her feet will wear them; an;
other reviles long ones as clumsy and un-
tidy. A writer on at iquetto states that h.
woman who cats in a restaurant without
wholly removing her veil is guilty of a
gross solecism; another replies that as the
rearrangement of the veil involves the ad-
justment of the hair it is a. wome solecism
to make a. dressing room of adining apart-
ment. A critic of- manners contemns the
woman who slips oifthc hand of her long
glove at dinner and tucks it in at the
wrist; another avows that only a vulgarian
will strip 011' and draw on in public gloves
long enough ‘ to suggest hosiery. It is at'
one time announced that nobody ought to
wear black, as it‘adds 10 years to the ap-
parent age. Soon after appears a recom-
mendation of black gowns as being ‘uni-
versally becoming and invariably in good
taste. All these differing opinions may be,

alter cases in' every affair of life, and an,
ordinarily clever woman needs only to ex-
erclse her gift of tact in order tobe an au-
thority unto herself, wiser than any out-
side one that she can consult. ‘

Whether brilliant colors are in good taste
[or not, they are fashionable at present.
An illustration is given of acostume com-
posed of blue and gold taffeta.- It has a
draped tunic of blue liberty satin trimmed
with guipure. The balloon sleeves are of
taffeta, and the bows are of gold colored

FASHION AND ART JOlNED.
O

They-Get Together wan veryGoud Efl‘ect
" In Princess Gowns.

There is u great deal to be said in favor -
of the princess gown. It is graceful,
never common looking and’ has an air of
exclusive fashion which pertains to few
other garments. It is seldom that an arti-
cle of attire is both fashionable and artis-
tic. Fashion usually shuns the studio, or
mangles and garblcs its efiects beyond rec-
ognition, as was shown in the'Greek dra-

 

 

peries, combined with Starclicd collar and

cuffs and French corset, which were quite
the mode three or four years ago. Occa-
sionally, however, she joins forces with
art, although half unwillingly and for a
very brief time. The Josephine styles not
yet passed out of date are a fair example
of her spasmodic good taste. - The prin-
cess modes are another, although she
spoils those by insisting on the compressed
waist as the proper form for setting them
off. In mediaeval times’thc princess gown
was the accepted dress of women. It. was
admirably fitted to the natural figure with-

out any distortions of whalebonc or c‘rino
line, and with its winged sleeves falling
away from the tight ones beneath, 13s
clinging, trailing skirts caught up by 1e-
ing drawn through the drooping girdle,«'it
might fairly rank with antique draperies

in beauty and artistic effect. Even nov,
altered as it is and modified to suit air
modern craving for “smartness” and “g)"
rather than for beauty, whose fundamen-
tal laws are changclcss, it is far preferable
to the round waist and belt, which cut the
figure squarely in two and convert. into
angles whatever whalcbone has left of del-
icately related curves. ’
Backed by a skillful and obedient dress-
maker and money enough to buythc most
expensive materials, a few w'omcii venture
to consult their own taste in preference to
the judgment of the multitude, but the
rank and file follow my leader, as indeed
moneyless women must in order not to ap-
pear shabby. What is artistic independ-
ence in brocade is dowdiness in oinhmerc.
Since the conventional form is easy to fit
and easily obtained it is not dmmt for
poor women to appear fashionable, and
a princess 'E'gown is refined looking, even
in calico. ’ '

made of tafieta silk. It is'open at the side

THE MAID SAYS NAY.

Her ‘Mlstress' Clothing, No Longer Good
. - Enough For Her—New Light Wrups.

It is a curious but well known fact that
what is good enough for the mistress to
wear is often not good enough for the maid:
The “pretty bonnet worn but yesterday
by “the lady of the house” on her market-
ing excursion, when offered today-to her
cook, is looked upon askance, possibly ne-
fused With‘moro or less indirect criticism.

ment remarks that she is going to give
one of her black dress skirts to the servant,
whereupon the latter inquires, “Is it a nice
one, miss?" although she knows that it
will come to her just as the young lady
has herself worn it. It is beginning to be
a. serious question. as to what we shall do
with our laid aside garments, since, how-
ever well made and well conditioned they
may be, Whenever they cease to be desira-
ble .to the comfortably situated woman

, they have no attractiveness for her maid,
; her cook or even her laundrcss.

It seems
wicked to burn them up when so many
human beings are going in rags.

. Speaking of saving garments, why does
not somebody invent a preservative for
woolen clothing and furs that shall pre-
vent moth and rust from corrupting and
shall yet not infect everything it approach-
es with an ineradicablo odor of ill smell-
ing chemicals? No extract or sachet pow-
der yet manufactured can overcome the
evil saver, and even the sunshine and open
air do not wholly dispel it. . .

But by this time winter things are al-
ready packed away with tar balls, cam-
phor tablets and similar abominations, and
light wraps are in the ascendant. Paris is
still sending forth new varieties of capes
and has added to the black and mode col-
ors shown earlier in the season an assort-
ment of brighter colors and still more elab-
crate make. A sketch is given of one made
ofmalachlte green velvet, having a round
yoke very long over the shoulders. Around
this is placed a full flounco of velvet.
The cape is. trimmed with vandykes and
bands of cream guipure and has on either
side of thelfront a rosette of black satin
ribbon with long ends.
