r i Following the revival of hand em broidery stars, tacklngs, etc., are used to embellish gowns of all kinds. The use ot long haired plain and mixed goods Is one of the features ot the season. Among heavy-textured ma terials there Is perhaps nothing more popular than the ribellnes. In trimmings the tendency Is toward simple effects. The deamnd for braid decorations is unprecedented. The Delineator. A Dainty Ceat. A smart little coat Tor rny lady to wear when alio goes a-vlsitlng Is made of white broadcloth. It is rather short, with elaborate sleeves. So far it Is not startling. But over it falls a little shawl-like cape. This is scal loped and three-cornered. One point falls to the edge ot the coat at the cen tre back and the others come to the edge of each point. Is this little shawl-like cave the edgo ot the wedge, and are our grandmothers' Indian shawls to be used otherwise than as pi ano and mantel drapes? A word to the wise is sufllclcnt. Don't give away or misuse your shawls. Attractive Golf Vests. About two seasons ago an enterpris ing manufacturer produced the golf vest. For a time it was received some what conservatively even by golfers, but after awhile it became widely pop ular. Women with an eye to conven ience adopted It tor all possible occa sions. Elastic and tight fitting, It set snugly under the light Jacket as well as the heavier wrap. Also, some of the so-called golf vests were so natty and becoming that It seemed a pity to waste their beauty on tellow golfers only, and for this reason they became the fashion for riding and driving. The knitted vests of this season are more attractive than ever, and their vogue seems on the Increase. Tortoise Shell Combs. Tortoise shell combs are coming in again, and nothing can be prettier than these dainty, expensive orna ments for the hair. Some of them are exquisitely orna mented with jewels and gold scrolls In odd and intricate designs. Some are in the pale yellow tortoise shell set with diamonds and gold fili gree work, and others are In dark hell with scroll designs. Another novelty is a double spiral crew pin in tortoise shell, to which jewelled ornaments of any kind can be fastened, and which cannot possl My fall out of the hair. There are also some apodal curved combs which will commend them selves to those who find it difficult to keep their hair puffed out In the pre vailing fashion. Advice to Tired Women. If the busy woman will- take advan tage of the following advice, she will find that youth and beauty will linger with her past their allotted time. Every day after luncheon, no matter how much her time is occupied, she will bathe face and neck in warm water, and in case ot unusual fatigue, specially warm applications will be placed at the back of tho neck for a few moments. The tired lines should next be smoothed out deftly, skin food should be applied, and then away to a darkened room for 20 minutes of complete rest. Tills simple procedure U so inexpensive and so easily man aged that It will never be popular, but facts show that many women have been wonderfully benefited by the rest when It is needed rather than after all the work and hurry and bustle are ever. Successful Women. It has been wisely suggested that the women who succeed are those who Co to their work with a determination bora of courage and positive convic tions, and whose energies are abso lutely tireless. It Is true they are often not so well paid lor the same work as men, but thai is one of the mistakes ot the day that will soon be rectified. We are avowing wiser, and one of the things that Is most important for every one to know is that there is no sex in brains. Those who fall are usually those who expect too much and pre sume on account of their being wom en. There is plenty of work and money tor the sharp woman who will fight every difficulty. Everybody loves a fighter, whether It be man or woman; fighters who see nothing but success at the other end ot the long road; fighters who believe In themselves and their efforts, and who plan their dolly battle as a gen ral plans campaigns; fighters who are brave, above board and generous In the struggle these are the hero ines of doily life, and they command success and respect by thoroughly de serving it. New York News. Fashion Hints for Winter. A chief characteristic of the new waists and bodices is the deep shoul der effect, achieved either by the shaping ot the garment or the dtsyo-, itlon of the trimming. That skirts will remain close fitting about the hips and" have the decided flare at ther lower edge is indicated by the newest designs. Quite the smartest coat to be worn with walking skirts la the loose Nor folk, with stitched straps and belt of the material. The .Empire designs are being well received for Indoor purposes. Velvet costumes are certain to en joy the popularity accorded them last season. Blot seams are retained In many of the latest skirts and appear also la coats. .. Lace Boots Correct. For walking and for general wear laced boots are still considered the correct thing, though there are many maids and matrons who cling to those that button. The favorite leathers for these heavy shoes are calf and calf ve lotir, and the heels are either Cuban or the broad low flat ones that make walking easy. For afternoon dress, where a car riage will be used, the shoes are ot sort, fine dull kid, with French heels, and these are almost invariably but ton. For Informal wear, full evening dress requires the duchesse satin slipper, with a Louis Qtitnze heel. This heel Is siender and tall, quite three inches. Tho satin matches the dress exactly. One lovely slipper shows point de Ven ise lace en applique all around. It Is even on the tongue. As for further adorning, it's a tie be tween the buckle and the rosette. The buckle, of finest cut steel. Is this sea son the first choice. When a chiffon Is used it is caught with one of Rhinestones. Colored stones are Introduced if one desires to indulge In any particular colored scheme. For house wear In the day time many women prefer Oxfords to slip pers. Calf or kid with patent leather tips is the correct thing for children. For dancing school both boys and girls wear black patent leather pumps, though at 16 a girl adopts a very mod erate French heel. Winter Hats. Fur hats are too hot for this climate, excepting for midwinter wear, but there are some fur toques and turbans which are so becoming and so smart that no one could resist them. The mole-skin, that most fashionable ot all furs, which is made up in the new blouses, looks remarkably well In a toque with stiff cockade at the side; white and gray Bqulrrel and the fur that looks like rabbit skin are also most attractive in hats. Few hats ot Persian lamb are seen, but those that are in evidence are so exceedingly smart that they are unquestionably fashionable. In spite of the great ex travagance in dress, there is one thing about this year's fashions which makes it possible tor people of moder ate means to dress well; the fact that last year's hats and gowns may be altered satisfactorily into this year's styles. It will require time, pa tience and Ingenuity to accomplish the desired result, but it is possible, and, of course, it is not sensible to throw away handsome materials sim ply because the styles of this year are different. A fur bat ot last year can be remodeled by using velvet of the same shade, a rosette of lace, or some one of the feather trimmings so fash ionable at the moment; the velvet hat may be quite modernized by com bining with it chiffon, silk or taffeta, and often when a hat is really so shab by as to be quite discouraging in gen eral appearance, the birds which are so fashionable at present can be put on to cover the entire bat There are many new shapes in wire frames or in felt that easily may be trimmed with old materials at little expense, and while there are hats at enormous ly high prices, there are also hats at lower prices than ever known, and such as are worth buying, too. Har per's Bazar. Hairline stripes are seen In the newest veilings. An odd design in braid trimmings Is a leaf in two tones. Evening gowns made entirely ot fringe are decidedly new. Pistachio and soft pastel shades are the green tints approved ot by fash ion. Straps ot black velvet studded with silver nail heads effectively set oil a costume ot black zlbeline. Camellias, both white and coral tint ed, ore fashionable in Paris; so, too, are tiger lilies and velvet popples. The latest klmona preserves the characteristics of the Japanese original but is cut to fit the American figure. Toques tormed of camellias, violets and foliage are much worn. For wear later on are shown toques of sable with garniture of flowers and foliage. Opal pearls, shaped like the familiar baroque, but gleaming with opalescent coloring, are among the button novel ties. They are Inexpensive and ex ceedingly decorative. Brown toques are particularly fa vored and a charming type is of mlr olr velvet with rainbow tinted, jeweled border and trimming ot shot brown satin and brown ospreys. Convenient little work baskets are formed ot cardboard covered with gay ly tinted chlntx or cretonne and fitted with pockets Tor spools, pins, buttons, darning balls, etc. The receptacle draws up at the top like a purse. Tho penchant for green has brought jade promlneuly to the front An ex quisite necklace that represents one ot the newest productions Is tormed of links of silver or dull gold fashioned In art-nouveau style.

Sometimes It Is a thick cable cold of bin ok silk strung with jetted beads; again It Is a cordelier or twist of silken strings loosely knotted at the ends. All these flying cords and chains have a tendency to Impede hasty pro gress by catching around bureau knobs, door hnndles, and they fre quently serve to sweep away small ar tides from the writing table, or help upset the contents of a work basket, and so distribute them In rolling reels and buttons about the room.

S'B'v?. m for A Novel Clock. In Oeneva a very novel and useful clock has Just been constructed. Us principal feature is a phonograph, which will reproduce to-morrow and at precisely the same hour any words that may be spoken into it to-day. The usefulness of such a timepiece Is manifest. Suppose, for example, you have an important appointment for to morrow at 5 o'clock In the evening and do not wish to forget it, all that Is necessary for you to do Is to take the phonograph attached to the clock and say into It: "I have an appoint ment to-day with at 5 o'clock." If you utter these words at S o'clock to-day they will be produced at 3 o'clock to-morrow, and thus you will have ample time to keep your appoint ment. As an aid to memory a knot in one's handkerchlew haB hitherto proved of much service, but It Is cer tainly not as useful as this phono graph clock. Mind This.

Erico. &!, by J6.1L drufatar LADY ON EDITORIAL STAFF OF LEADING RELIGIOUS WEEKLY Sends the Following Grand Testimonial to the Merits of Cuticura Remedies In the Treatment of Humours of the Blood. Skin and Scalp. "I wish to give my testimony to the efficiency ot the Cuticura Reme dies in what seems to me two some what remarkable cases. I had a number ot skin tumours small ones on my arms which had never given me serious trouble but about two years ago one came on my throat. At first it was only about as large as a plnhead, but, as it was in a position where my collar, If not lust right, would irritate it, it soon became very sensitive and began to grow rapidly. Last spring it was as large, if not larger, than a bean. A. little unusual irritation of my collar started it to swelling, and in a day or two it was as large as half an orange. I was very much alarmed, and was at a loss to de termine whether It was a carbuncle or a malignant tumor. " My friends tried to persuade me to consult my physician but dread ing that he would insist ou using the knife, I would not consent to go. Instead I got a Bmall bottle of Cuticura Hesolvent and a box of Cu ticura Ointment I took tho former according to directions, and spread a thick layer ot the Ointment on a linen cloth and placed it on the swelling. On renewing It I would bathe my neck in very warm water and Cuticura Soap. In a fow days the Cuticura Ointment had drawn the swelling to a head, when it broke. Uvery morning it was opened with a large sterilized nuedle, squeezed and bathed, and fresh Ointment put on. l'us and blood, and a yellow, cheesy, tumorous matter came out. In about three or four weeks' time this treatment completely eliminated boil and tumor The soreness that had ex OUTIOUHA BKMEDIKS an Mid throughout lbs otTUlstd world. riilCESl Cutln'ura RmoItwiI, too. naf aoula Hath, form at UhoeoUu Ouaud rUU. ate. par vtal of w Outtour ointment, mt bui.aml Cnucura Soap tto, par ease, Sana for lbs areai work, - Humours of the Oloed, Sila and Scaly, and How to Cure TU,m,- at fagoa, aw DUaaaaa, with ItlaMraltone, TMUmoslals, and DtncUont la all Uitvuaiica, including J armm and China, BrIUaa Dapoi, tl-m Vhanaraouas sVu Uadou, B. a franca Dasot, Hue da la, ralz. rails.

She had two large lumps come nnder her right arm, the result of a sprain. They grew rapidly, and our physi cian wanted to cut them out. I would not listen to it, and she tried . the Cuticura Remedies (as I did a : few months ago) with magical effect. ' , In six weeks' time the lumps had entirely disappeared, and have never returned. . " 1 have great faith In the Cuticura Remedies, and I beliove they might , be as efficacious in similar caaea ' with other people, and thus save) much suffering, and perhaps life. I have derived so much benefit from "' the use of them myself that I ant it constantly advising others to use them. Re- M cently I recommended them to an office boy for his father, who was dis abled with salt rheum, i The man's feet were . swollen to an enormous , size, and he had not worked for six weeks. Two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent and two boxes of Cuticura Ointment ' worked a perfect cure. You never saw a more , grateful man in your life. ' "I am very much in-' terested in another case t where I have recom mended Cuticura just ' now. My housemaid's mother has a goitre which had reecbed a"j very dangerous point , The doctors told her ' that nothing could bo done j that she could live onlv two or three wceksj" erm that ho would die ot otr&nfjulutlon. Sho was confined to her bed. i - and waa unable to speak, when her ' daughter, at my suggestion, tried the effect of the Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Resolvent. Strange to ' say, she waa very shortly relieved of t me most aistressing symptoms. The swelling seemed to be exteriorized, and she is now able to be around her house, and can talk as well aa ever. " It seems to me that I have pretty j good grounds for believing that Cuticura Remedies will prove suc cessful in the most distressing forms of blood and skin humours, and if you wish to use my testimonial as herein indicated, I am willing that yon should do so, with the furthor ; privilege of revealing my name and1' address to such persons as may wish to substantiate the above state ments by personal letter to me."., Chicogo.
