ETON JACKET.
trated is one of the best and most
available, as well as the latest of
fered. It can either be turned back
to form long, tapering revers or closed
in double-breasted stylo with one
short rever turned back from the right
side. As shown, the material is vel
vet with revers and collar of Persian
lamb, and the jacket is designed for
wear with various skirts, but cloth
and cheviot are equally suitable for
the purpose, aud the design is also ap
propriate for costumes of broadcloth,
zibeline and all the range of suiting
materials. The revers and collar can
be of any fur desired, Persian cloth,
astrachan or velvet, or can be of ap
plique of cloth or silk over white, or
covered with braiding on the cloth
foundation.
The fronts are fitted by means of
single darts aud are joined to the
seamless back by under-arm gores that
are curved to fit the figure snugly and
gracefully. The fronts are faced and
rolled back to form the revers. The
high collar is cut in sections that en
sure the necessary curve and flare.
' BLOUSE WAIST.
The sleeves are two-seamed and flare
over the Minds, where, as shown, they
are flushed with bands of fur.
To cut this jacket for a woman of
medium size four and one-eighth yards
of material twenty-one Inches wide,
two and a quarter yards forty-four
Inches wide, or one and three-quarter
yards fifty inches wide, will be re
quired.
Woman'* Utouae W«Ut.
The simple flannel, cashmere and
Henrietta waists made In shirt waist
style, but with variations in detail,
take precedence of all others for morn
ing wear and all those occasions that
cull for informal dress. The very
pretty May Manton model shown In
the large cut exemplifies the latest
cut, and it Includes all the newest
features. As Illustrated, It Is de
signed for afternoon home wear ami
is of cream white flannel with stitched
bands of gray, but can lie duplicated
in any color and couiliiuatlou pre
ferred.
The foundation for the waist is a
lining fitted by means of single darts,
shoulder seams and under-arm seams,
and which closes at the centre front,
on it are arranged the hack and
friftits that extern! below the waist,
and to It is attached the shield with
tiie pointed stock collar. The right
side of the shield is attached peruia
neutly, the left Ir hooked owr Into
place, and the stock closes Invisibly
at the centre back. The left front is
attached to the front edge of the liu
ill!.', but the right Is left free and
hooked over oultt the let' beneath the
stitched baud that finishes the edge.
The sleeves are lu bishop style, and
are finished with slightly flaring
pointed bauds or cuffs that hook over
at the seam, where a short opening is
invisibly Mulshed.
To cut this waist for a woman of
medium size four yards of uiuferitt 1
twenty one inches Wide, three uutl a
half yards twenty seven Inches wide,
or two and a quarter yards forty-four
incites wide, will be required, with
three quarter yard of material twenty -
otic or twenty seven Inches wide, or
one half yard forty four iinji"« wide
to triui u illustrated.
Fancy Buttons.
Buttons are extravagant and fanci
ful. Parisian diamonds and old
French enamel, or anything really
good, can be utilized for this purpose.
The little coatees, made either double
or single-breasted, require buttons of
some kind, either three at each side
or three at one side, though, if they
be very large, only two need be used.
Then, plain serges and tweeds are
finished with velvet collars and cu
rious gun-metal buttors suited to this
style of garment. Dull gray rough silk
buttons like those used on men's
coats have a chic of their own, and are
undeniably good taste.
Long-Stemmed Itoses on Hats.
Some novelty hats are being trimmed
with two immense roses and nothing
else. These roses have stalks about
twenty inches long. The flowers are
placed in the front of the hat, either
on one side or in the centre, and then
the long stalks are arranged round
the crown like ribbons. The effect is
certainly very charming.
Deerskin Gloves Lined With Silk,
Soft and warm and pretty are gloves
of deerskin, lined with silk. Antelope
skin is taking the place of gazelle-skin
gloves, as they are stronger and soft
er and couie in delightfully soft colors.
A Detail.
One feature in the detail of the bod
ice is a lacing of gold or silk cord
across the shoulder seam, each point
tucked down with a tiny gold button
Hoys' Vestee Kilt Suit.
While a few mothers allow trousers
at four, such models as the charming
little suit shown are usually called
upon to till the gap between babyhood
and the mature age of five or six. The
May Manton kilted skirt illustrated
covers them gracefully, yet leaves
them free, and the suggestion of coat,
waistcoat and shirt gives sufficient of
the mannish element to satisfy both
the mother's pride and the boy's ambi
tion. As shown, the material is broad
cloth in dark automobile red with
trimming of black braid with gold
buttons, and shield, or shirt front, of
white laid in tiny tucks, but dark blue,
Russian blue, hunter's green, brown,
beige and brighter golf red are nil cor
rect, and Venetian cloth, tweed, serge
and camel's lmlr are all shown.
The waistcoat and shield are ap
plied over tiie body lining so that all
closes together at the centre back. The
skirt is laid in seven deep box pleats,
and is attached to the lower edge of i
the body, also closing at the back,
where a placket is finished between
the two centre pleats. The little coat •
is entirely separate, and is slipped on
over the body. The backs are seamed
at the centre. The fronts hang straight
from the shoulders, and finishing the
neck Is a big sailor collar that is
square across the back, but tapers ton
point at each front. The coat sleeves
are finished with turn over flare cuffs
decorated with braid ami buttons.
To cut this suit for :• boy of (out
years of age four yards of material
twenty-seven inches wide, three yards

Absorb Imparities.
No compound of gelatine or mils,
should be allowed to remain un
covered, as both absorb impurities
from the air. A cut onion is a gen
uine scavenger in the same respect,
and should never be used in cooking,
nor should It be eaten, after it has
been cut for any length of time. If
only half of a large onion has been
used the other half can be safely re
| served for another occasion by wra' 1
j ping it securely in paper.
Hiuta for Tea Maker*.
The properties of tea depend chiefly
upon the presence of a volatile oil that
I acts as a. powerful stimulant., The
I fact that tills oil is volatile and easily
> lost is the reason why tea should
j never boil or remain on the leaves
i after they are steeped. Green and
| black tea are made from the same
plant, the only difference lying in the
ways of curing, the green tea being
( made by much the quicker process.
For a strong cup of tea a teaspoon
ful to a cup of water is the usual
proportion, while one teaspoonful to
a pint of boiling water makes a weak
cup. Very hard water should be
boiled thoroughly for live or 10 min
utes before it is used, so that the car
bonate of lime may bf separated from
the water, or on the other hand, it
should be steeped four minutes longer
boiling point, then used before the
separation commenced. Green tea
j should be steeped fond minutes longer
I than either Oolong or English break
j fast tea.
A Suggestion for tlie Cook.
Another point which the cook should
j know is the difference between slni
i inering and boiling. This is readily
; tested with a cook's thermometer,
j when boiling point will be found at
1 '212 degrees, simmering only deniaml
: ing 18U degrees. Roughly speaking,
j it is easy to see the difference be
tween the two. When a liquid boils
| at full pitch its surface will be close
\ ly covered with bubbles, and the
j whole surface, will, so to speak, rock
and swell with the heat, in which con
dition it very quickly boils over. When
it simmers, however, the surface of
the liquid will simply ripple like a
pond into which a stone lias bi en
thrown, the water keeping all the
time at a gentle shiver. This rip
pling is called by French cooks the
' sourire or smile of tlie water. If you
allow meat or anything that the cook
j ci v books say should be simmered to
boil up and bubble, tlie substance in
question will harden and become
stringy, giving out all its goodness to
the liquid in which it is cooked, said
liquid being only too frequently
thrown away.via tlie sink. Hut if in
your zeal to keep the dish at simmer*
ing point you keep it at the side of the
stove, where the liquid never reaches
"smiling" point, tiie substance ill
quest ion may heat, but it will only
steep, not cook.

PAIN OPENED HER SKULL
Mrs. Lasher's Remarkable Story—Dr. Greene's Nervura
Cured Her.
MRS. FRED. C. LASHER, JB.
The case of Mrs. Fred. C. Lasher, Jr., a well-known woman of Weitport,
N. Y., is one of the most interesting on record. It is an actual fact that head
aches caused her head to split.
" For thirteen years," she says, " I suffered from terrible headaches night
and day, until the bones of my skull opened so that the doctor could lay his
thumb right into the opening onto my brain. Two doctors attended me and
claimed that I was on the verge of insanity. I was under their care for nine
years, but got no relief. Then I tried Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, and inside of a year the bones of my head had taken their natural
shape again."
That Mrs. Lasher's statements are true is vouched for by reliable men of
Westport, and by a Justice of the Peace there. Dr. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy cured Mrs. Lasher when all other remedies failed, and it cures
thousands of suffering women every year. If your head aches, if you cannot
sleep and are weak and nervous, remember that this great curative agent, Dr.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, will make you well and strong.
Dr. Qreene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy is a physician's
prescription, formulated from a discovery after years of investiga*
tion and experiment. Dr. Greene, 35 West 14th St., New York City,
Is the discoverer. He can be consulted free personally or by letter.
A l'erulinr Accident.
A peculiar accident occurred in a
Western town recently. The big iron
safe In a shoe factory refused to open,
and the bookkeeper and engineer con
ceived the Idea that* ~hey could burn
out the combination by use of carbon
and electricity. It took several hours
to accomplish their purpose, but they
finally succeeded, but not until they
had stood for several hours in the glare
of the electric light taking turns at
holding the wire and carbon. When
the work was over both complained of
a dizziness and pain in the head which
increased as the hours passed, and in
a short time both went suddenly blind
at about the same time. All efforts to
restore their sight have been unavail
ing. for while the eyeballs appear all
right, the sight Is destroyed.—Scientific
American.
Atc-hUon flirt*' Beaux.
No wonder so many young girls
would like to leave home. When a
young man calls on tlietu, the house is
sure to be permeated with the smell
of sauerkraut cooked that day. And
it often happens that when a young
man is calling, the parents actually act
as if they had a right to be iu the par
lor.—Atchison Glolie.

Ths Hon. Geo. Starr Writes
No. 3 VAN NESS PLACE, NEW YORK.
DR. RADWAY—With me your Relief haw WORKED
wonders'. For the last three years I have ha<J
frequent and severe attacks of sciatica, sometime!
extending from the lumbar regions to my ankla
anil at times to both lower limbs.
During the time I have been afflicted I have ir.et
almost Hll the remedies recommended by wise iuet
ami fools, hoping to find relief, but all proved t?
be failures.
1 have tried various kinds of baths, manipula
tions, outward application of liniments too nuiuer
OU9 to mention, and prescriptions of the most
emineut physicians, all of which failed to give m«
relief.
La-»t September, at the urgent request of a friend
(who had been afflicted as myself) l was induced
to try your remedy. I was then suffering fearfully
with one of my old turns. To my surprise and de
light the first application gave me ea*e. after bath
ing and rubbing the parts affected, leaving ths
limbs in a warm glow, created by the Helief. In a
short time the pain passed entirely away. Al
though 1 have slight periodical attacks approach*
ing a change of weather, I kuow now how to cur
luvself, and feel quite master of the situation.
It AD WAV'S READY RELIEF is my frieud. I
never travel without a bottle iu my valise.
