| f A Remarkable Recovery. Mrs, Frank Strogbe, R. F, D.1, Apple-" ton, Wis., writes: “I began using Peru- na afew months ago, when my health and strength were all gone, and I was nothing but a mervous wreck, could not sleep, eat or rest properly, and felt Do desire tolive. Peruna made me look at life in a different light, as I began to regain my lost strength. “T certainly think Perunais without @ rival as a tonicand strength builder.’’ A Picture Story, Two hunters were seen walking all over the moving picture. They think they are following bear tracks. Suddenly the foremost hunter stops with a start. x “By gum!” he shouts, “them ain’t b’ar’s tracks at all; them’s the slide man’s dirty thumbmarks.” PATENTS.

Libby’s Cooked Corned Beef There's a big differ- ence between just corned beef—the kind sold in bulk—and Libby’s Cooked Corned Beef. The difference is inthe taste; quality of meat and natural flavor! Every fiber of the meat of Libby’s Cooked Corned Beef is evenly and mildly cured; cooked scientifically and carefully packed in Libby’s Great White Kitchen It forms an appetiz- ing dish; rich in food ci and makesa sum- mer meal that satisfies!

The use of narrow frills for trim- ming is to be noticed in many of this summer’s frocks and waists. As shown in the illustration, these little frills are extremely soft and dainty in effect. They are one more sign of the effort to get away from the use of so much lace on the summer waists and gowns. In many cases the tuck- ing and frilling is taking the place of lace entirely, and on most frocks much less lace is used than formerly, unless it be of the finer sort and for elaborate costumes. The waist shown in the cut is a good example of the new idea. Lace is used only for the cuffs and the strip down the front. There is a shallow embroidered collar, but the rest of the trimming is sup- plied by narrow ruffling and plaits. ‘The waist shown in the cut is of fine batiste, the turnover collar being of the same material embroidered, and the under sleeves, collar and strip down the front, which is something like a chemisette, of embroidered net. The high collar of this net is made with three circular braids of batiste, trimming it at intervals, which keeps it in place, besides giving a becoming line to the throat. The strip of net down the front of the waist has the effect of a small chemisette. A frill of batiste borders the waist where it opens over this little chemisette, the frill turning inward. Below this the waist is apparently fastened in front with fine pearl buttons. Buttonholes may be made instead and jewelled or gold buttons placed in them. In real- ity the waist opens on the side, under one of the plaits. Either the outer- most plait or the one next to it may conceal the opening. New Uses for Cretonne. et Time was when cretonne and chintz were used only to dress chairs and divans, doorways and the furnishing of the house in general. Now it dec- orates the mistress herself, and one sees her waistcoat fashioned of this dainty stuff, her hat trimmed with the same, and she frequently carries a parasol to match. Cretonne has also been used by French modistes for dec- orative purposes upon evening gowns —or, rather, under evening gowns, for the flowered material is set under the chiffon or other thin fabric, which veils it sufficiently to give it the most artistic effect. To give the trimming of cretonne a look of individuality, a woman handy with her needle may “pick up” with embroidery silk cer- tain motifs in the design. The same work is also done with gold thread. LL ENGNG DULLED NE TOOT OO BN OU Ny le oe ALL SALES Ne I a DNF ON SOO ALL DAINTY AND CHARMING. Fashion’s Pleasing Decree as to Warm Weather Accessories. The accessories for warm weather are particularly dainty and charming this year. Lacy mitts and hand em- broidered silk gloves are favorites for summer days, and the chamois glove is liked for its washable qualities. In some of the silk gloves, lace is inset in bracelet effect. The sheerest and film- jest of handkerchiefs appear in white and colored effects, lace trimmed and hand embroidered, or absolutely plain, with a narrow hem, hand stitched, and those finished - with butonholed scallops are very pretty. Parasols seem to have reached the very acme of perfection in shape and coloring. The very newest has 16 in- stead of eight ribs, and is suggestive of the Japanese. There is a wide as- sortment of handles, and the decora- tive effects and beautiful shadings are as varied as the costumes they are made to accompany. In neck ruches of tulle, maline, liberty or messaline, the newest idea is to finish them with a large bow which is arranged at the middle of the back or at one side.— Delineator. 7 Beautiful Forehead. A-smooth forehead that is fine in texture and clear and®vhite always is beautiful and adds greatly to the charm of the face. It takes care and thought to keep it smooth and unlined. Try never to express anything with the forehead, that is, when you talk do not frown or raise the eyebrows or in- dulge in’ any other muscular move- ments with these muscles. Marine Coats. The smart fashion of wearing loose colored coats with white skirts on the streets and for all outing purposes has caught on with quite ’a rush. Navy blue is the popular color. Jade green and hunting pink are running as close rivals. These coats are of light summer weight serge, the thinnest that can be bought, and are lined with pongee or china silk. They are really dash- ing. Headache will yield to a foot bath without other treatment. Try it. A handful of pecans taken after each meal is a much better and more palatable remedy than castor oil. Eat spinach, onions, lettuce, all kinds of green vegetables and have rhubarb sauce once a week. They are all good as medicine. For training the eyebrows make a paste by dissolving gum arabic and brush this over the brows at night, placing them as they should be. In the morning wash off in warm water. CASE FOR SHEET MUSIC. Neat and Practical Article Requiring No Great Ingenuity to Make. A neat and thoroughly practical music-case, which will keep sheet music in good condition when carry: ing it from place to place, forms the subject of the accompanying sketch, and might be very easily and quickly It is carried out in a made at home. :as is often done. = = ¢ So ‘ double thickness of art serge or linen stiffened with a thick sheet of card- board, which can be very easily bent down the center. The shape is shown clearly in our second sketch, and the size should be a little larger than a sheet of music. The way in which the flap is cut so that it may eventually fasten over the outer side with buttons and button- holes is also shown in lower sketch. A band of broad elastic about one-half inch wide suffices to keep the music in its place, while the handle is made of thick silk cord. American cloth in imitation of leather is a very durable material to use for the case. This, if done for a time, will train the hairs. Pulling in Skirts. All Kinds of devices are being used to drag in long skirts around the ankles. Strips of satin are sewed three times to the inside of the skirt, once in front, once at each side. Through these the feet are slipped, thus securely binding in the skirt hem at front and sides. Walking, sitting or standing the skirt must drag in around the feet. Sometimes tapes are! fastened inside the skirt, being tied tight, a scheme which makes loco- motion somewhat difficult.’ In short skirts wide beading is used, sewed on! the outside of the skirt below the! knees. Through this a wide ribbon is! threaded, pulled tight and tied with! loops and long ends at side or back. / ANCIENT INDIAN ORDER. Strange Religious Rites Observed by Remnant of New England Tribe. Up in the northeast corner of the state there is a small band of Seneca Indians on a reservation of the same name, says the Muskogee correspond- ent of the Kansas City Times. This is a remnant of a nation of Indians that can be traced from the original New England States, as they were forced west and south by the en- croachment of the whites and the bat- tle arm of stronger Indian bands that were constantly warring against them, Among this little band of Indians, probably not more than 100 all told, there are some curious heathen rites that seem to be instinctive with the tribe. Among them there is an old order known as “The Wood Face.” Those who belong to the order can-call in the “Wood Faces” in case of sickness, They go through a performance that is calculated to drive out from the sick person the evil spirit that may be hovering around the bed. These faces are masks made out of wood, usually carved to repre- sent a human form of some character, but sometimes made to represent the head of some animal. They are paint- ed req and black, with large silver eyes and a horse tail for hair. Arrayed in one of these hideous masks, together with rattles made of turtle shells fastened together at the outer edges with small stones inside and tied tothe legs of the “Wood Faces” as they dance, roll and kick, singing their incantations the while, the Indians present a scene calculated to drive away any evil spirit that might happen along and incidentally drive the life out of the patient. It appears that this organization has been in the tribe for many gener- ations, the modes of procedure differ- ing sometimes, but following the same general character. Its secret signs and symbols are guarded as closely as Masonry and its fraternal features are as binding. Its spiritual benefits are believed in implicitly. . .

NFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all the children born in civilized countries, twentytwo per cent, or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen! We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma~ jority of these precious lives, Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations, Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups. sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium, or morphine, They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons, In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the pores of the skin and allays fever. OT NARCOTIC.
