The double skirts mid tin so slightly draped ones which were Introduced have not succeeded i? shaking the general fidelity to long, sweeping, unbroken lines, which are so graceful. The fashion of plaiting and tucking skirts horizontally does not change this effect. Skirts are made lon? ger and longer until the train is now usual. The fashions for little girls follow those for women. Tight sleeves with epaulets WALKING COSTUME. or tucks at the top and close skirts flaring at the edge and plain or tinishod with a circular ruffle are tho rule. A soft sash belt tyiug with long ends at tho back or a surah scarf falling at the side is often seen. Round, pointed and sailor collars of Irish guipure are greatly liked for chil? dren, both boys and girls. A picture is given of in attractive spring walking costume. It has a skirt of nickel gray cloth, which is laid in pan? els, buttoning over with small steel but tous as for down as the knee. Below that there arc plaits lot in, and the skirt falls free. The double breasted vest is of the same material aud has two rows of steel buttons and rovers of breche pompadour silk. The plaited chemisette and the col? lar and cravat are of cream surah. The bolero, which has deep points in front, is of black cloth, with rovers and a direc toiro collar trimmed with nnrrow black velvet.

THE GREAT SPRUNG MEDICINE. JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA as a Blood Food and Nerve Energizer. Is tko greatest SPRING MEDICINE ever discovered. It cornes as a rich blessing from heaven to the " worn out." the run down, the overworked and debilitated. That " tired feeling," those '"sinking spells." the languor and despondency which arise from badly nour? ished nerves, from thin, vitiated blood and an underfed body, vanish as if by a magic spell. The weariness, lassitude and nervous prostration which accompany the spring, time and the heat of summer, are conquered and banished ?.t once. For every form of neurasthenia, and all ailments of the brain and nerve, insomnia, hysteria and nervousness generally, it is almost a specific. It furnishes the very elements to rebuild v/orn-out nerve tissues. It feeds brain, nerve centers and nerves, calming and equalizing their action; it makes rich, red, honest blood. Newness of life, new hope, new strength follow its faith? ful use. It makes the weak strong, and the old young again. It was the antiquated (but now happily exploded) method in the good old times, to treat Salt Rheum, Scrofula, Cancer and other troublesome disorders arising from BLOOD TAINT with powerful alteratives, such as mercury, arsenic and other minerat agents. It was expected by this treatment that the poison could be killed while the blood was left to course through its channels holding in its circulation the speciftc germs of the. disease. But in this way. every part of the body became more or less diseased. Noth? ing can be more terrible than a horribly destructive blood taint. It not only attacks viru? lently the different structures of the body, but many times the bones are honey-combed and destroyed. It often seeks out the nerves and spinal cord, and again it will bring de? cay and death to some vitai organ, as the kidneys, liver or stomach. There is only one scientific method for the cure of blood taint. That is, PURIFICATION! Every particle of the blood must be removed through the execretory channels, the lungs, kidneys, bowels, liver and skin. " First pure, then peaceable." The great restorative, reconstructive and vitalizer of the blood, JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA, not only radically and ex? haustively removes the taint, but also removes all mercury, calomel and other minerals, and fills the veins and arteries with the ruby, glowing current of vitality. "The blood fa the life." Good health means pure blood. The old and reliable remedy. JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA, is universally regarded as the greatest Blood Purifier ever discov? ered. This fact is now established beyond question or cavil. BLOOD POISON CUBED BY .JOHNSTON'S SAR8APABILL1. _ Byrcn, Mich., October 31. 1894. VMlliams. Davis. Brooks & Co..
