USEFUL AND PRETTY SMALL LACE KIMONOS DESERV- EDLY IN FAVOR. Are Much Utilized Just Now for Adorn- ment of the Princess Frock— Come in Various Styles and Patterns. The little lace kimono with short sleeves is as useful a, “set piece,” if the term is permissible in relation to articles of attire, as one may possess. A Princess Garniture. st now it is being successfully zed for the adornment of the princess frock. New frocks are made with the bolero idea in view, and oid frocks are successfully remodeled with the help of this accessory. The jack- ets are sometimes fitted in and fas- tened down to the bodice, as shown. But this is not always done. If the jacket fits weJl it is frequently used with loose edges so that the frock may be worn without it. These little jackets are to be had in the shops in many different styles and patterns of laces. If the design be good and the lace of good quality the kind does not matter much. A heavy laca may be used without fur- ther trimming, but very often the de- sign of the jacket is embellished by embroidery in gold or colors or both. The embroidery may be of silk or of ribbon, chiffon, ete. The jacket is then frequently edged with a ball fringe or a gold fringe to match the embroidery. Quite an attractive effect is pro- duced when the lace jacket is em- broidered in the color of the costume. For instance, a pale blue princess frock with a lace bolero will have the design of the lace outlined with a heavy silk embroidery in blue or a delicate tracery of blue embroidery, accentuated here and there by deeper biues or gold. Sometimes the sole addition to the design of the lace con- sists in the embroidering of the cen- ters of the lace flowers or the use of little tufts of colored satin for these flower centers. Some of the jackets to be worn with satin princess gowns or those of equally elaborate material have em- broidery or spangles outlining or over- laying the design of the lace. If the jacket is fastened to the gown bands of spangled trimming will then be used to finish the jackets. When the gown with which the jacket is to be worn has a chemisette or yoke of lace there is no attempt to match the lace of the bolero. The chemisette collar and undersieeves may all be of the same lace, but quite different from the bo- lero, although naturally the design must either contrast effectively or be of the sort to harmonize well with that of the bolero.

None-the-less one frequently makes in baying: shoes, and discom- yvagance results. do not nt to be forced into away perfectly good shoes never try them on save late in the aft- ernoon when the feet are tired and; somewhat swollen from walking. If the shoe feels comfortable under such conditions be sure it is not going to give you trouble later. It is also well to wear thicker stock- ings than usual when having a shoe fitted, to allow a little extra room. Spring Styles in Shoes. As the empire and classic styles keep supreme in the cut of women’s rments, the buckled shoe is appro- priate for the first time since its in- | troduction several years ago. The bow of last year and the stiff pumps gns of giving place to the slip- per th Cuban heel and square gold buckle, while for evening dress, satin slippers are shown, trimmed with a single rhinestone button, which dis- play the foot to the best advantage. it is yet too ¢ to whether brown shoes be as popular for summer as they have been this win- ter, but they are always good style and very comfortable Headgear for Bridesmaids. The bridesmaids of this season are evidently determined to specialize upon pretty and quite uncommon head- gear.

Neat Little Gase Adapted for These Indispensable Articles. We are all of us very fond of quot- ing the proverb, “A place for every- thing and everything in its place,” when we notice how untidy other peo- ple are, but how many of us can always be sure of putting our hand on a pair of scissors when we happen to want them in a hurry? A good device for keeping three pairs of scissors and a thimble always handy may be seen in our sketch. The drawing shows exactly how this neat little case is made. It is carried out in dark green leather with a wash- leather lining, and arranged with a strap of leather down the center of the front, stitched so as to leave four sepa- rate divisions for the thimble and tha three pairs of scissors. The flaps and the wash-leather lining will help to keep the scissors bright, especially if the case is care- fully tied up with its ribbon strings when the scissors are not in use. American cloth will serve very well in place of leather for the outside, but wash-leather for the lining is advis- able. not be pushed in go-carts. All young children should be kept as flat as pos- sible and not be joggled. Scenting the hair—which so many people affect nowadays—must be looked upon as a delicate art in itself, and only with experience can the hap- py mean be defined, most amateurs committing the fatal error of overdo- ing it. New Hat Ribbons. New hat ribbons show, an immense white polka dot on deep colored back- grounds, such as dark red, navy blue, golden brown and green. Three yards will make a generous bow, with some to spare for draping the crown. The net bows, both plain and ring dotted, can be bought ready for adding to the hat all wired, and will cost less than three dollars. These are very pretty and airy-looking and just the thing to take the place of the velvet bow on a silk hat.

Accor- ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the only remedy of known value, but one of many reasons why it is the best of personal and family laxatives is the fact that it cleanses, sweetens and relieves the internal organs on which it acts without any debilitating after effects and without having to increase the quantity from time to time. It acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objection- able substances. To get its beneficial effects always purchase the genuine— manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug- gista.

Now that it is known that in the year just closed nearly sixty thou- sand from the United States declared their intention of making their homes , in Canada, it might not be out of place to search for some reasons that would bring this about. These people are but following the example of the fifty-five or sixty thousand who did the same thing the year previous, and an almost equal number who the year before that but followed the example of the thousands of the year preced- ing. An excellent climate, certain and positive crops of grain of all kinds, good markets for their produce, land —and good land, too— at low prices, easy terms of payment, (not forget- ting the 160 acres of land given free by the Government, particulars of which the Canadian Government Agent whose name appears elsewhere will tell you about) and then the splendid social conditions. _The situation is pretty well sized up by a writer in one of the magazines. Quoting from this article, we find this: “Those of us who made good in the States,” inter- jected another settler as if to con- tinue the story of his neighbor, “have had it easy from the start; a little money is a mighty good thing on com- ing into a new country... But those who make an entry, or even buy lands at low rates, are able to square things in two or three seasons’ crops. There are hardships in building shanties, and then with increasing prosperity getting things into shape for better homes. But affairs go much as in the States. Wehave the largest liberty io the world; there is more home rule in the Provinces than in the several states of the Republic. Taxes are light and with only a few million peo- ple west of Winnipeg we don't get in each other’s way. One’s friends over the line probably thought we would not live through the winter; and while it is cold, real cold, it is free from the moisture experienced in the east. Schools are good as encouraged hy the Government; the enterprising American promoter and Yankee drum- mer see to it that we take notice of the latest improvements and best agri- cultural machinery. Altogether we are as near to affairs as we would be on our own farms in the States. Winni- peg bears the same relation to us as Chicago did at home; and Edmonton with the surrounding region advances as Omaha did in the days when we were as young as the boys yonder. We get together much as they did in nges over the border; the gov- ernment has established experimental schools of agriculture, and progress in every line is stimulated. This is a great region for grazi we hear the Calgary citizen continuing, “and then with building elevators of wheat at ene dollar a bushel, many of us find time to go over to the live stock ex- hibition in Chicago or visit old friends during the course of the winter. Every man is taken for what he is worth or for what he can raise; and in this good air and on this fertile soil we intend to show our old friends that we are made of the right stuff— that we are chips of the old block who built up the American West.” When extremes meet they don’t al- Ways recognize each SHOR THE DUTCH BOY PAINTER STANDS FOR PAINT QUALITY IT IS FOUND ONLY ON MADE BY THE OLD DUTCH PROCESS. .
