Many friends gathered at the Scran-

Cloak Fashions for Fall, 1898.
Fashion decrees are now fixed for the present season at any rate.
During the opening week of early Autumn there was a noticeable
uncertainty as to which of the many claimants for popular favor
would carry the day, but there is no longer room for doubt, fashion
leaders in Paris, London and New York have finally issued their
decision and as usual the rank and file of well dressed women will
follow their lead.
Fall Jackets for 1898.
a tendency
and Black Kerseys claim first attention. Materials, Whipcords
are clamoring hard as a close second.
Capes for Fall Wear
The Frilled Cape is the fad of the moments Some are extreme in
length, but the majority are only moderate, a special effort being
made for smartness in effect. Thus we find a distinct flavor of
militarism in some while others are so highly tailored as to com
mand attention from the very excellence of their workmanship.
For Children and Misses' Wear
The change of style in Little Folks' Jackets and Coats is not quite
so pronounced as in the garments for adults, but in misses' sizes
the ideas are practically the same as for grown people, only in
Jackets, the military effects are more pronounced.
Collarettes Are Popular
The abolition of the storm collar demands especial throat protection
and the new collarettes come to the rescue, adding both grace and
beauty to the perfect'eomfort. They are not expensive.

are generally shorter than those worn last
season, and the very latest idea, has develop-
to drop in front, and in place of
tne snarp corners, tne points are rounded.
Fly fronts have all but disappeared, to be suc
ceeded by the smart English box fronts with
4, 5 or 6 buttons. The storm collar no longer
finds favor, and most ladies' will agree with
us in saying that the smart lappel, and notch
collar have a much more pleasing effect. As
for the sleeves, the cut better affords a very
good idea of what is correct. As usual there
are a few extremeties designed exclusively lor
those who insist on originality, but the major
ity of garments sold will be after the stvles we
have indicated. As to colors, greens have dis
appeared and the favorites now in checks.

At no tlmo Is woman moro liable to
physical and mental dangers with hours
of suffering than at tho "Turn of Life."
Tho great want In woman's system is
ability to properly ndjustltsolf to the now
conditions. The outlet, monthly, of blood
Is now being diminished and carried Inlo
tho body for tho supply food of Its later
years.
Daughters, you can nowtosomo extent
repay your mother's early care. Shu must
be spared every pos.slblo exertion. You
must help her bear her burdens and anxie
ties. This critical time safely over, she will
return to renewed health and happiness.
That so many women fall to untlclpato
thlschange thus happily, is owing not
merely to lack of care, but to Igno
rance. There is, however, no exuuso
for Ignoranco when experienced ad
vlco can bo yours freo of nil cost.

of women successfully through tho
Change of Life, and she will help you.

Three Doctors In Consultation.
From Benjamin Franklin.
"When you are sick, what you like
best Is to bo chosen for u medicine
In tho first place; what experience tells
you is best, to be chosen In the second
place; what reason (I. e Theory) says
is best to bo chosen In tho Inst place.
But If you can get Dr. Inclination, Dr.
Experience and Dr. Reason to hold
a consultation together, they will glvo
you the best advice that can be taken."
When you hnvo a bad cold Dr. In
clination would recommend Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy, because it Is
pleasant and safe to take. Dr. Exper
ience would recommend It becnuso it
never falls to affect a speedy nnd pro
minent cure. Dr. Benson would rec
ommend It because It Is prepared on

ure's plan In rellovlns tho lungs, op
