Door Garments—Thin Fabrics—
Out Door Dresses—Millinery.
A frequent choice among young
people will be a short jacket in tan
or black, tight fitting in the back and
the same or half tight in front. Strap
ped seams are the conventional fin
ish for tan garments and fancy braid
for the black. All ages will wear loose
black silk or sometimes cloth gar
ments reaching usually to the hips
and‘’attached to a yoke or shoulder
cape, both either composed of trim
mings or showing quite elaborate gar
niture. These garments, however,
must not be mistaken for the Monte
t'arlo coats that have been so popu
lar for the last two seasons,
mense variety in
Thin Fabrics
is sufficient to astonish even
accustomed to New York
High on the list come organdies in
exquisite floral patterns, ranging from
delightfully hued roses of very large
size, to dear little buds. Other organ
dies show satin or lace stripes in
squares or columns and twined about
them or spreading in lovely expanses
between, are delicate flower laden
vines. Hareges in old fashioned
weave come in wool or silk and wool
and vie with etamines and voiles,
both in many grades and colors, so
much so that they almost form differ-
erent fabrics, one from the other va
riety. Persian novelties in two shades
of the same color, eolians showing a
fine cord, and crepe de Paris, are
amoiqg other lovely offerings. There
Never Was a Time
indeed when transparent and semi
transparent materials were so fash
ionable, and this fact must account
for the great use of slip skirts that
show through the goods above so pret
tily. Drop skirts are also very much
in evidence and for both. Pres de soie
is now conceded to be the best mate
rial, since while wonderfully resemb
ling silk, it also gives the peculiar
“cry” of silk that is so dear to a wo
man’s heart. Petticoats of the same
material are very desirable, since it
has the silken lustre, while less ex
pensive and much stronger than silk.
An admirable completion to the petti
coat is the Lily hair cloth flounce, per-
fectlj shaped, veil txfand and Impart
ing the stylish flare, while keeping the
drapery away from the feet, thus
leaving the movements of the wearer
free. The supply of materials for

or Independent walking skirts, loaves
nothing to be desired In addition.
Cotton materials without being
weighty, have a delightful firmness of
weave, and especially is this true re
garding the various grades of canvas
and In coloring, there are grave and
gay, dark and light, so that evry taste
can be suited. A minority are loosely
woven In small checks and show
bourotte deckings and also in the mi
nority are varieties very closely wov
en and having narrow stripes. The
greater proportion of canvases are In
solid colors. Duck outing cloth Is
very closely woven, coming in both
light and dark colors and many show
small squares formed by thick self
colored threads. Crash fills the gap
between canvas and duck and comes
in mixtures of white and colored
threads, one forming the warp, the
other the woof. The effect is very
desirable. In
M illinery
lovely specimens have crowns com-
posed wholly of small flowers, with
brims of very fine mohair braid. Lace
drapery, too, plays quite a part, and
elegant examples have rich additions
coining down almost to the shoulders
at the back, the same drapery form
ing the trimmings and kept in posi
tion by flowers at the front. A model
of jauntiness for rough-and-ready
wear is in mixed straw, with rather
high, broad crown and brim of almost
equal heighth, turning up. On the
left side of the front is a large ribbon
bow and two upright quill feathers.
Carriage hats are sometimes provided
with a deep fall of lace that is thrown
back and the soft drapery has a very
becoming effect. Berries of every kind
are very fashionable and hats made
wholly of small blossoms were never
more popular.

Sam Jones on the Dispensary.
[ Kasley Progress.]
R<*w Sam Jones has always kept
pretty well posted on the liquor leg
islation of the country and as a rule
shows no mercy on anything that
condones the liquor traffic. While
on a recent trip through South Caro
lina he took pains to make*some fur
ther investigation into the w( rkings
of the dispensary law. In a lettc
to the Atlanta Journal of Feb. 27th,
lie expresses his sentiments in his
usu-.l characteristic manner, and, we
tLi’.k, shows the matter up in its
true light. Following is his conclud
ing paragraph, which is a very good
summing up of the matter;
"If any town in Georgia, or other
state, contemplates inaugurating a
dispensary, let them send a commit
tee to Charleston or Columbia, and
take in also som<* of the smaller
towns, and see the thing as it is.
That committee will come back and
report unfavorably. Keep your sa
loons until you can vote them out,
I at don’t ever compromise by swap
ping your saloons for the dispensary.
A saloon is the smallpox, a dispensa
ry is the measles. I, for one, had
rather have the smallpox and get well
than have the measles forever
am frequently asked, which would
you choose, saloons or dispensary or
blind tigers? 1 reply, why don’t you
ask me which I had rather have,
-mallpox, yellow fever or measles?
By the grace of God I don’t want
either one of them, and am not going
to have them if I can help it."

Every Drug Store Claims
to fill prescriptions ACCT KATKLY, but we wish to call your
attention to some views relative to “ACCFKACY” iu pre
scriptions. It is a broadeer item than it appear^ at fir-.t
thought. Faithful dispensing of prescribed medicines in
the specified quantities is only a part of ACCURACY. The
first requisite is quality in the different drugs entering into
a prescription. Unless the various drugs lie pure and capable
of exertiug the desired effect, mere technical ACCURACY
can tie of but little importance.
We make our work conform to this broader and true defini
tion of “ACCURACY in Prescriptions.” The greatest care
is exercised in selecting drugs and we adhere faithfully to
authorative standaids in making the various preparations
from them.
He who is thoughtful of quality will also lie exact iu com
pounding.
