VALUE OP A BEC0MIX3 BOSKET.
The value of a becoming bonnet
cannot be calculated. One's gown
may be simple, may have been made
over a number of times, may, indeod,
be almost shabby, but if the bonnet is
becoming all else is forgotten.
One's bonnet has much to do with
bringing out the virtues or otherwise,
not only of one's eyes and hair, but of
one's skin and the shape of one's head.
The round-faced, plump beauty must
give up her tics unless they are of tho
narrowest and looped with so much
care thnt the idea of framing the full
moon is not suggested. She whose
face is slender (politeness gives that
name to thinness), then there must be
a soft, full framing and broad loops
that will tone down all angles. She
who is sallow must admire rose, pale
blue and heliotrope on other women,
choosing golden brown, that most
charitable of tones, deep crimson, and
if a light evening color is required, a
delicate shrimp to make the yellow of
her skin white. The pale woman
chooses rose, dark blue, all reds, dark
green, glowing purple and black to
gain color.while bbe of the rosy cheeks
seleots pale blue, heliotrope, olive,
cream white and crimson, if she wishes
them not to look like roses. It your
eyes are dull do not make them seem
more so by putting sparkling jet or
brilliant rhiiiestones near them.

A CLEVER WOMAN SCULPTOR.
Miss Bossie Onahotema Potter,
whose work is so markedly original as
to bring her fame while yet ia her
teens, is a St. Louis girl, young, en
thusiastic, with the light hearted cor
diality of a happy ohild. She is a wee
mite of a woman, with great, dark
eyes and an expression of rare sweet
ness and strength. Miss Potter is an
artist by instiuct, affection and train
ing. Her art impulso is essentially
moderu and realistic. Indeed, her
ability to tee the artistio possibilities
in modern life is undoubtedly one
phase of her genius, and it is this
characteristic that has so individual
ized her work and brought her such
immediute recognition in the art
world.
When the fashionable young women
of Chioago come to Miss Potter's
Btudio to be "done" in one of her por
trait statuettes, she does not insist
upon thrir donning Greek or Empire
gowns, or suggest a Gainsborough hat
or lace drapery. She accepts her sit
ters as they come, dressed by Worth,
Douoet or a Chioago modiste, finding,
as she exp esses it, " 'lines' and grace
enough iu the ninuteeth century
maideu and er gowns to satisfy her in
the interpret -.tiou of art."
Miss Potter does not confine herself
to this work iu miniuture ; she has
done excellent work in life size boats
and bus-reliofs. Her bust of Professor
David Swing, completed a year ago,
is, perhaps, the uio.it impressive piece
of work she has ever modeled. After
seeing the bust one does not need to
be told that Professor Swing was a
great hearted, big brainoj IcaJer of

One day a sportsman, after a long chase.

the nearest Indian hut and borrow a boat to
take his game to Cheboygan. He found an

thinking to ingrntintu himself, he drew from

"Me like it and drink littlei brother drink

The sportsman looked at the Indian, then
at the whisky, and finally dashed the flask
against a stone, breaking It and emptying
tne contents upon tne ground, lie stood
gnsing at the broken flask awhile, nnd then
told his errand. The Iudian rolled up his
bark, went to the river with the sportsmnn,
helped to get the deer into tho bout and took
them to Sheboygan. At parting the sports
man grasped tho red man's baud and ealdi

CHAPLAIN M'CADE ON BEER AND BREAD.
Id a recent issue you say, "Anarchists
waut to get bread by force, but they seoin
willing to pay for beer." Yes, and how much
do they pay? The Anarchists are only a very
small wing of tho laboring classes ot our
country. It is hardly worth whilo to 11 ud
out how much tbey pav for beer and whisky,
but the millions of working people pay over
75J,oOO,000 every year for that which is not
bread. Why not remind them of this fact?
They are tbe main support of tbe colossal
rum trallle which boasts of drnwiug into its
coffers ti00,OCO,000 annually.
The laboring people of the country spend
more for whisky nnd beer than the entire
bankiug capital of tbe Nation. If they would
save what they spend in this way ana start
banks tbey could soon have 10,000 bauks
with $2,250,000,000 capital. Don't get the Ug
ures wrong. I'll write it out sothem will be
no mistake. Iu three yenrs, by saving wunt
they pour down their throats, they could
have banks running iu their interest with an
aggregate capital of two thousand two hun
dred and fifty millions of dollars, leaving a
net proflt of at least one hundred millions a
year to be divided among them.
l'ut this at them put it at them strong:
The way for tho poor to ut rich is to stop
"spending money for that whioli is not
bread and their labor for that whioh sntls

Mr. Arthur Bhadwell's article In tho
National Review ou "The Decline of Drunk
enness" compares the state ot things in 1834,
os revealed before a seleot committee of the
House of Commons, with the latest statistics
about the present time. It we go baok to
the police returns of 1833 we find a very fair
test: The returns for 1333 givo the number
of "drunks'" in London for the previous year
as 29,880 to a population ot 1,655,000, or
one to fifty in rouud numbers. More than
one-third were women; or, to be exact, the
proportion was eleven women to nineteen
men. In the two previous years tha number
was considerably hlghor. Moreover, accord
ing to Mr. Chambers, a polioe magistrate,
these figures did not ineludo 8560 "disor
derly" cases, who wore separately charged,
bringing the full list up to 38,410. or about
one to forty. Iul894 the number of "drunks"
in tbe Metropolitan Police area and the city
was 25,903, to a population ot 15,633,806, or
one to 216 lu ground numbers. In ordor to
be quite fair, however, it should be men
tioned that the figures for 1894 refer only to
convictions: while it is not oloar whether
those of 1833 wore all convicted, or only
charged with tho offimee. But taking thorn
as arrests only, and comparing them with
the 84,658 apprehensions of last vear. we still
have a relative amount of public, drunken
ness iu 1833 fully four times greater than ir
1894.

What Neglect Mar Do.
There nro some infirmities that only a
surgeon's knife will relieve, and mostly
strictly because of neglect. A neglected nerve
palu may beoomo so chroulo as to cripple,
and this Is often the case with Sciatica, If
taken in time, it Is eally subdued, like other
nerve pains, aud vigor and health are re
stored. Tbousandsof eases have been treated
by the use of Ht. Jacobs Oil, with tho result
of a prompt and permanent cure and restora
tion to health of the alTectod nerve. Teople
cannot be too careful with their nerves.
There is too much to suffer to admit f fool
ish neglect, and the simple thiug of getting
a bottle of Kt. Jacobs Oil and applying
promptly may save years of misery and per
haps years of crippled coudltion. Let this
warning servo to show what can bo and what
ought to be done without delav iu an attack
ot this disease.

Six Weeks Without Water.
An inoident that shows the wonder
ful power that sheep possess of living
for a long time without water is re
ported from Invernesshire, ticotland.
About seven weeks ago three sheep
were mi6Bed from the farm of Bals
parden, Ardersier. Every effort was
made to find them, but without suc
cess. A few days ago, however, a
barley stack was taken down, and the
missing animals were disoovered im
prisoned in tho woodon framework in
ihe center. They had subsisted for
more than six weeks on barley alone.
Una has since died.

From the Journal, Detroit, AffeX
A Very grateful mother Is Mrs. A. L. Hart
tiess, of 070 Ornndy Avenue, Detroit, for tho
Wonderful cure whioh her daughter has re
ceived by the use of Dr. Wlllinms' rink Tills.
Said Mm Itartnetsi "Yes, my daughter's
Il To has been saved by using Fink Tills, thanks
to a kind friend who reeommended them
to mo.
"Blanche was sick for over throe years.
She had the care of the best physicians pro
curable, and no expenso or trouldo wtri
spared to give her relief. Bhe was so thin
thnt sho was fairly skin aud bones, her 31
gostlon was nut of order and sho had the
most awful ltpadachns. We gave up all hopo
of hor recovery. Iter long, thin, listless fane)
mado me nearly erasy, mid we did every
thing in our power to give her strength mid
Induce her to tako an Interest In ail) thing,
"One day n friend told me) about the I'ink
Tills, and Mr. Hartness went down town and
got three boxes. Bho had taken about one
box, when, to my atnaxement, one morning
I heard her playing on the piano. I could
hardly believe It, for it hud been over a year
since the piano had Imen opened.
"Soon she began to take short rides on her
bicycle, and soon she went singing around
the house, our own happy, hearty llttlo
daughter once more.
"Shethlnks nothing of a spin on her wheel
over to Mt. Clemens or l'ontlac, and Is as
well as she ever was.
"I had a girl living nt our house who was
a groat sufferer from impoverished blond,
and who received instant and permanent
relief from the uso of one box of the pills.
"If this Information can be of any use to
help some poor sick one, It Is given with the
greatest of pleasure."
The proprietors of Dr. Williams' Tink
Tills state that they are not a patent medi
cine, but a prescription used for many years
by an eminent practitioner who produced
the most wonderful results with them, oir
lng all forms of weakness arising from a
wntery condition of the blood or shattered

ill to which flesh Is heir. The pills are also
aspeollle forthetroublespecullarto fema'os,
such as suppressions, all forms of weakness,

or excesses of whatever nature. They are
entirely harmless and can bo given to weak
aud sickly children with the greatest good
and without the slightest danger. I'ink
