Physi- cians treated him for nearly a year without helping him any. His head, face, and neck were covered with large scabs which he would rub until they fell off. Then blood and matter would yun out and that would be worse. Friends coming to see him said that if he got well he would be disfigured for life. When it seemed as if he could possibly stand it no longer, I used some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint- ment, and Cuticura Resolvent. That was the first night for nearly a year that he slept.

SSENTY “DODDS ” ~ KIDNEY i, PILLS au Vas SAR IDNE WAIST FOR SUMMER EFFECTIVE GARMENT MADE’ UP IN SILK OR BATISTE, May’ Be Used with Separate Skirts of Almost Any Kind of Material— Trimmings of All-Over Ba- tiste Embroidery. An attractive way in which to com- bine fine all-over embroidery and summer silk in a waist is shown here. The waist illustrated may be used with separate skirts of cloth, linen, silk or voile, or it may be part of an entire costume of silk or batiste. The same design may also be utilized ef- fectively with embroidered net for the trimming and crepe chiffon or silk for the bodice. In the illustration the material used is pale blue silk, India, China, or what is known as wash silk or pongee being suitable materials. Soft and rather flimsy material is more attractive for this waist than that which has too much body. The trimming is all-over batiste embroid- ery, also embroidered batiste inser- tion and velvet ribbon. The silk is very pale blue. The batiste is equal- ly attractive in white, cream or ecru and the velvet ribbon may be of the same shade as the silk or a shade or two darker. This waist wouid be nothing like as attractive as it is if made with a high neck, All fichu effects—and this is somewhat on the fichu order—require a low cut bodice in order to be real- ly attractive. On a high necked bod- ice they are more than apt to look clumsy. Of course as the drawing does not show a waist strictly along fichu lines this does not apply entire- ly to this waist. Still the effect is suf- ficiently ‘that of a fichu to make the low cut neck desirable. The cape at the top of the sleeve, which is placed under the extended bretelles, will be found to make this waist much more becoming to the woman whose shoulders are narrow in proportion to her figure, so that she finds the drooping shoulder effect un- becoming. It may be omitted by the woman with broad shoulders. A stout woman, even although her shoulders are not proportionately broad, will usually find this extra sleeve trim- ming unbecoming. In fact, fairly close fitting sleeves will usually be found to be better than those of a bouffante ef- fect for the plump woman. Mend, Silk, A good way of mending a wooler or silk dress in which a round hole has been torn, and where only a patch could remedy matters, is this: The frayed portions around the tear should be carefully smoothed and a piece of material moistened with thin mu- cilage placed under the hole. A heavy weight should be put upon it until it is dry, when it is only pos- sible to discover the mended place by careful observation. CHARACTER IN THE HAT. Some Things to Bear in Mind When Making a Selection. When it comes to determining the size of a hat, its width and breadth, there is a consideration which is gen- erally ignored by milliners and buy- ers. It is essential to remember that a hat is not worn merely above the head, but above the entire height, and peculiarities of the figure should influ- ence us in our choice. For this reason |- it is imperative that in buying a hat one should stand before a pier glass which reflects the entire length. Now, supposing you are large, with broad hips and shoulders. You need a quite different hat from a woman who has your height without your bulk. To make your shoulders less broad, the crown of your hat should be fair- ly high, and the brim should be tol- erably broad also to counterbalance the hips. A proportionately slender woman under this same hat would look de- cidedly meager. This is a single illus- tration of what I mean, but if you bear it in mind it will keep you from wearing on your head an object which, while becoming to your face, com- pared with your general size dwindles to absurdly small dimensions, or con- tinuing other equally eommon errors. —Harper’s Bazar. FOCI S TMAE a Many Soutache Styles. The great variety of designs ob- tained in soutache braiding is one of the remarkable things about this sea- son’s fashions. There is no end to the designs that have been evolved by dressmakers, and much of the dis- tinction and even the becomingness of a@ garment depend on the style of braiding. It isalso a point of pride with women to whom dress is a very important matter to secure new de- signs only and to leave the hack- neyed ones for their less fortunate sisters who have neither the money nor the time for the pursuit of the nov- elties of fashion. The Mephistopheles Quill. Long, spike-like Mephistopheles quills are a recent addition to the mil- linery market.

Appropriate Move to Honor the Man Who Designed and Laid Out the Magnificent Capital of the United States. The item of $1,000 in the sundry civil bill reported to congress to pay = for the removal of the remains of Maj. Pierre Charles 744 LEnfant to Wash- fington and _ the erection of a suit- able memorial over his grave re- calls the career of an eccentric and interesting person- age. L’Enfant came to America with Lafayette, entered the American army and shortly became a captain of en- gineers, reaching, before the conclu- sion of the war, the rank of major. To him is given the credit of devising the magnificent plan of the city of Washington. The plan, it has been said, was suggested by that of the ancient city of Annapolis, which is dominated by the state house, as that of Washington is by the capitol. The original plan“of the capitol was de- signed by Dr. Thornton, and although it was pronounced by Mr. Latrobe to be one of the first designs of modern times, it proved so faulty and imprac- ticable in detail that a committee of congress called upon Mr. Benjamin H. Latrobe to help to Straighten things out. Mr. Latrobe had been appointed surveyor of the public buildings in Washington and experienced such dif- ficulty in dealing with Dr. Thornton that he resigned. But the president would not accept his resignation, and he received authority to complete the capitol. About this time, namely, in 1806, Latrobe wrote in his journal as follows: “Daily through the city stalks the picture of famine, L’Enfant and his dog. The plan of the city is probably his, though others claim it. This sin- gular man, of whom it is not known whether he was ever educated to his profession or not, has the courage to undertake any public work that might be offered to him. He has not suc- ceeded in any, but was always honest and is now miserably poor. He is too proud to receive any assistance, and it is very doubtful in what manner he subsists.” Before this time L’Enfant had been. employed by Robert Morris to design and supervise the erection of a dwell- ing in Philadelphia. The design of this house was a monstrosity, and the attempt to build it ruined both Mor- ris and the architect. The house was 120 feet long by 60 deep and Latrobe spoke of it as a “complicated and un- intelligible mass.” After Latrobe saw L’Enfant in Washington looking like a picture of famine, L’Enfant was offered the place of professor of engineering at West Point Military academy, but declined it. He was a frequent visitor at Chil- lum Manor, in Prince George county, and there he was cared for in his last illness. He was buried there in the family graveyard. Latrobe seemed to have no doubt that the plan of the city of Washing- ton was made by L’Enfant, and in this day it is accepted as a historical fact. That plan establishes the genius of L’Enfant. It seems beyond belief that in the very infancy of the republic a man could have looked forward with prophetic eye and designed a_ city which can be suitable only as the capital of a great and opulent coun- try. It was designed for just such a city as it has grown to be, namely, a city of residences and public build- ings. For a business or commercial city the streets are too wide and the design unsuitable.. But as a capital city, and a residence city with the re- sources of the whole country to help it, it is difficult to see how the design could be improved. For the first half century of its life the plan of Wash- ington was greatly ridiculed as inap- propriate to a town of its insignificant size. Its broad streets were unpaved and were alternately storms of blind- ing dust or deep in mud. It was called in derision the “city of magnifi- cent distances.” But Washington has now grown up to its plan and justified the designer. It is entirely fitting that the ashes of the man whose genius accomplished so much should repose in the city he created. Beauty in Streets of Capital. Without going beyond the city streets or outside of the beaten course which leads from his home to his daily task, the resident comes in contact with nature to a degree and extent that is without parallel, says a Wash- ington correspondent. He sees the foliage on trees and shrubs develop and the grass on the lawns come to life. He can note the opening of the flowers and watch the gaunt, bare tree forms, first crowned with a delicate haze, like a mist of greenery, and then opening out into masses of foliage. All these processes of nature are familiar to the most careless eye, for the reason that grass and trees and shrubbery and flowers are so common in this city as to be found on every street and in all sections. It is not one favored street, or perhaps two or three, but all streets have the glory of the trees and of the lawns and of the parks filled with shrubbery and flowers. As one looks up and down the street the line of his vision is bounded on each side by masses of beautiful leaves and is closed with the expanding glimpses of the green- ery of some park, VETERAN OF THREE WARS.
