TvrMtb Coffee Popular.
To prepare coffee in true Turkish
fashion is now the fad of 6ome fashionables.
Those who are inclined to
rebel at the idea of coffee thick as
mud are assured that one's taste for
this coffee, as with olives, must be
educated. It is brewed in a tiny brass
I saucepan 'from coffee ground tine as
dust, and only enough for one can be
made at a time.
A man may possess a certain amount
of interest and still be lacking in principle.
f Stomach
Troubles
In Spring
Are that bilious feeling, bad taste
in the month, dull headache, sleeplessness,
poor appetite.
No matter how careful you are
about eating, everything you take into
your stomach turns sour, causes distress,
pains and unpleasant gases.
Don't you understand what these
symptoms?rignalsof distress?mean?
They are the cries of the stomach
for help! It is being overworked.
It needs the peculiar tonic qualities
; and digestive strength to be found in

thousands of grateful letters telling

medicine for all stomach troubles ever
yet discovered.
Joe Jefiereon'* Criticism.
Tbe impression is current in theatri- j
cal circles that Mr. Jefferson never
guys. He is a stickler for professional
etiquette, it is true, and tries
to mould his company into one harmonious
picture, into a perfect machine.
But there was one night upon
which he yielded to the temptation to
guy. It was during a performance of
"The Rivals," in which his matchless
portrayal of Bob Acres proceeded
smoothly until the scene is reached in
which Falkland,- Captain Absolute
and Bob Acres have a wordy altercation.
At this point the aotor playing
Falkland ranted violently, raised
his voice to an unnecessary pitch, and
finally, in a burst of anger, slammed
a door-as^:|n*d|e his exit. It is part
of the "bnrtjjBl'1 for Captain Absolute
tQ say Vt thift juncture, "Poor
Falkland!" He diaso, and Mr. Jefferson
promptly replied,-"The poorest

Old Gnm Fonnfl.
The big dredge Babcock, working
on Eutchnson's Island, across the
river, dug np two old Revolutionary
cannon, which probably belonged to
the British man-of-war, the wreck of
which was dug up a few days age.
One of the pieces weighed about 1000
pounds, the other 850. The cannon
will be presented to the city and preserved
as Revolutionary relics. The
old warship was evidently sunk there
during the Revolution, and an effort
to get her name and history is now
being made.?Atlanta Constitution.
Profit In Destroying Money.
Probably the greatest profit etei
enjoyed by the Government as a result
of the destruction of money was
in connection with the fractional currency
of shinplasters issued durirg
the civil war. The total amount
issued was 8368,724,079, of which $6,880,558
has never been presented for
redemption. A large amount has
been preserved as curios by collectors
and occasionally even now it is offered
for redemption. This was especially
the case during the recent hard-times.
People who had the old '.'ahwplas
ters" of war times in their, ctfbinetf
and scrapbookB got hard up and senl
them in for redemption.
In 1801 860,000,000 of what were
called "demand notea" were issued
by the Government to pay the vemergency
expenses of the war. Of thie
amount, $53,817 has never ; beer
offered for redemption. The -.flame
year, $266,595,440 in ^ compound interest
notes were issued, of which
$168,110 are still outstanding; $59,055
of the one and two year^tfcs and
$132,850 of the famous 8^?-thirtj
notes are still outstanding. But almost

the shirt pattern worn by the
British soldier in South Africa. As
3ho*n by the cut, this model, save
for its pockets, is not unlike that used
for the regulation shirt waist for
women in America. It has the same

is a broad stitched band with buttons,
the two breast pockets, the plaits ard
flaps of which recall those worn by the
London policemen, being buttoned

cuff at the wrist and the shoulder
seams are strapped and finished with
buttons. A high straight collar with
a small butterfly bow in black or white
.fiajshes the garment at the throat.

A Fetching Combination.
White and ecrn is a combination extensively
employed. A lovely summer
gown as made of white Swiss embroidered
*witli a small ecru dot.
There is a double skirt to tbis gown,
and both top *nd bottom skirts are
trimmed -with three plaited frills of

is u<ed on the bodice, the plaits

Unbnrnlfthed Silver Bnttoni.
A fashionable gown of "cherbat a>^
lait" (a warm pinky-brown), has th?
skirt almost covered with a complicated
system of tucks. The re
leased fullness escapes about th? ,
ankle. The distinguishing feature if
the jacket lined and faoed with white
satin and buttoned down the fron<
with a double row of silver buttons;
These are not burnished like the plate
upon your dinner ta^e, but have the
dull look of unburnished metal. The
buttons are not too small and look
solid.
Up-to-D?te Vnderlineo.
Now that our dresses are made to
fit so tightly aronnd the hips, wellfitting
underclothing ib a necessity.
The latest Parisian idea is to have
chemise and pettiooat made in one.
TVia linn or r>n.rf. in nnt. fit .the fiomrfl
without the least vestige of fullness,
and then below the hips it widens out
into an ordinary skirt. These garments
have simply a strip of lace or
ribbon to support them on the shoulders
and fasten dowu the centre of the.
front to just below the waist.
~~????
New Koand Sklrti.
The newest round skirt from Paris
is either goffered, .tucked or gathered
at the waist and over the hips; consequently
the wearer of it should be
Blight, and the cloth must not be too
thick. Other Bkirts are tucked at the
top and then accordion plaited. This
kilted cloth is ohic and has the advantage
of novelty, but unless carefully
manipulated it will develop into
an unwieldy garment.
Concerning the Paratol.
Golf parasols are something new.
A golf stick of suitable size is used
_ ' ' (
for the handle and the decidedly lavge
frame is covered with an intense
emerald green. The correct thing to
wear with thin sunshade is a whitebrimmed
manila straw hat. The m.anila
straw is as light as ail- and very
pretty. It comes in a deep tan and
should be decorated by a twist of
white veiling and several big pompons
of silk floss in Irish green caught
almost in the front of the hat.
Beaaty and U?efalaesit Well Met.
Some of the late imported confections
are trimmed with velvet ribbons,
with ends clamped in gold, thus
combining usefulness with beauty,
the golden clamps standing in good
stead to keep the ends of the velvet
from curling.
Sleeved For Thin Frocks.
Elbow sleeves are very fashionable
for thin frocks, and they are completed
with cuff turned back', from
which falls a frill of lace or chiffon
wider at the back than It is in the
front. N

Serpents of oxidized steel which
have a life-like flexibility are used for
watch chains. They cosies in differ
ent lengths.
A Smart Golf Costmne.
Here is a golf costume with a ne-fr

It always seemed strange to me that i
the Natal climate, which is, on the
whole, so healthy for human beings,
should not be favorable to animal life.
Dogs do not thrive there at all, and
soon become invested with ticks. One
heard constantly of the native oattle
being decimated by strange and weii;d
diseases, and horses, especially imported
horses, certainly require the
greatest care. They must never- be
turned out while the dew is on the
grass, unless with a sort of muzzling
nosebag on, and the snakes are a perpetual
danger to them, though the
bite is not always fatal, for there are
many varieties of snakes which are
not venomous. Still, a native horse
is always on the lookout for snakes
and dreads them exceedingly. One
night I was cantering down the main
street of Maritzburg on a quiet old
pony on my way to the Legislative
Council, where I wanted to hear a
very interesting debate on the native
question (which was the burning one
of that day), and my pony suddenly
leaped off the ground like an antelope
and then shied right across the road.
This panic arose from his having
stepped on a thin strip of zinc cut
from a packing case, which must have
been opened, as usual, outside the
store or large shop which we were
passing. As soon as the pony put his
foot on one end of the long curled-up
ehaving it must have risen up and
struck him sharply, waking unpleasant
memories of former encounters
with snakes.?Cornhill Magazine.

The Hon. Geo. Starr Writes
No. 8 Van N'esb Place, New Yobk.
Db. Badwat?With me your Relief has worked
wonders. For the last three years I hav? had
frequent and severe attacks of sciatica, sometimes
extending from the lumbar regions to my ankle,
and at times to both lower limbs.
Curing the time I have been afflicted I have tried
almost all the remedies recommended bv wise mea
and fools, hoping to find relief, but all proved M
be failures.
1 have tried various kinds of baths, manipulations,
outward application of liniments too numerous
to mention, and prescriptions of the moat
eminent physicians, all of which failed to give int
relief.
Last September, at the urgent request of a friend
(who had been afflicted as mrself) I was induced
to try yonr remedy. I was tlien nufferin? fearfully
with one of my old turns. To my surprise and de.
light the first application gave me ease, after bathing
and rubbing the parts affocted, leaving th% v
limbs In a warm glow, created by the Belief. In a
short tlmft the pain passed entirely away. Although
I have slight periodical attacks approach*
ing a change of weather, I know now how to curi
mvself, aud feel quite master of the situation.
fcADWAY'8 BEADY RELIEF is rnv friend. X
never travel without a bottle in my valise.
Yours truly,
Geo. starb.
