WOMEN AND SOCIETY.
All Communications to this column should

Our illustration shows u waist of
white glace afTeta, with elaborate dec
orations of applique on 'ancy sailor
collar extending over the tops of the
sleeves, which disp’av elaborate trim
ming of novdtv blue and w’hite silk
braid, diminutive buttons and ap
pliques. The waist is in plaited effect,
adorned with br»id and buttons, and
14a '
the salient feature is a royal blue
Sappho satin neck scarf with fringes
f f white chenille. Turnovers of cuffs
to match, and belt stitched with Cor-
ticelli silk and crossed at the back
in oddly-shaped postilions complete
this very dainty bodice.
The separate waist has by no means
met with the relegation to the back
ground prophesied for it. By a grad
ual evolution from an article of severe
lines to one of artistic shaping, it has
established itself as a necessity, and
is not only constructed in fancy silk,
all over laces, and thin woolens, but
is also made in materials to match the
skirt for general street wear. The
shirt-waisc suits ic moire, taffeta and
velvet are an embodiment of both
style and art. Dark blue, black, and
the neutral shades in brown, are the
preferred colors for these costumes.
Light tans or even creams are con
sidered stylish, while the woman who
prefers something more quiet, will be
most likely to select a medium brown
or a prettv blue. Trimmings have
been a feature of the past winter
gowns and they are to be more so
fur th* 3 rnri' g and summer costumes.
Lace and silk embroideries will be in
troduced wherever there is a possible
excuse for them. Still the trimming
must never bo over elaborate, (luffs
promise to be a feature of all the
newest fashions; even the plainest
walking gowns are being made with
conspicuous cuffs. The collars also
display the same trimming as the
cuff; they are flat io shape and many
are cut low in front.
Mrs. Martin Brian, who has been
visiting her brother, Capt. J. B. Bell,
has returned to Yorkville.

Duff will be glad to learn that she is

illness.
Belated Kindness.
Mr. Smith (in street car)—Madam,
take my seat.
Mrs. Jones (who has been standing
fifteen minutes)—No, thanks. I get off
at the next corner.
Mr. Smith—That’s all right. So do I.

No Use at All.
He (who has offended her)—Won’t
you look up at me?
She—If I did, you’d kiss me again.
He—No; honest, I won’t.
She—Then what’s the use?—Life.
A Reminder.
Dearborn—What have you got that
string tied about your finger for?
Wabash—Oh, I’ve been getting mar
ried, and my wife doesn’t want me to
forget it.—Boston Herald.
Hypocrisy becomes a necessity for
those who live scandalously.—DeFinod.
There may be something significant
in the fact that oo one has yet dared
to construct a verse from the excel

A Startling Tent,
To save a life, Dr. T. G. Merritt, of
No. Mehoopany, Pa., made a startling
test, resulting in a wonderful cure.
He writes, "a patient was attacked
with violent hemorrhages, caused by
ulceration of the stomach. I had of
ten found Electric Bitters excellent
for acute stomach and liver troubles,
so I prescribed them. The patient
gained from the first, and has not had
an attack in 14 months.” Electric
Bitters are positively guaranteed for
Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Constipation
and Kidney troubles. Try them.

An Rnenij of Pnnith-n.
There is one enemy for which the
pansy lover most watch like a lynx,
and that is a little green worm that
seems made on purpose to devour pan
sies. Where lie comes from or why lie
I should exist at all is a mystery. But
| if you find your little plants stop grow-
i ing and see the leaves perforated with
small holes and your blossoms guaw’cd
behold, your enemy is there. Eternal
vigilance alone will save you. Your
face must be brought to the surface of
the ground. Kneel and turn up every
leaf. Doubtless you will find the small
green monster curled up and hiding,
sucking out ail the juices of the plant
and so becoming exactly its color,
which makes him so difficult to find,
and if not checked lie will utterly de
stroy it. lie will devour it in a few
days.
The Hoy.
A boy is an odd piece of furniture,
but he is the ground and chief ingre
dient of the man. Delude not yourself
with the belief that the hoy is not all
he pretends to be, for lie is a great deal
more. He is an incomprehensible fel
low to any one but another boy, and
because lie will presently grow into
the awkward between hay and grass
period that separates boyhood from
manhood, and to a lumbering idiot
then, don’t signify that he is an idiot
now. lie never is. But his chrysalis
state fetters him and makes him seem
like one sometimes.
The boy is all right.
