An honest
Confession.
If we were asked the reason
why "Viavi" performs such
wonderful cures, we would be
honest, and 6ay, ""We don't
know." Ask a scientist why
an apple invariably falls down
ward, and he would say it was
due to the law of
Gravitation.
That is about all he could tell
you. It is no more natural
for bodies to gravitate toward
the center of the earth tb.n it
is for " Viavi " to cure tL dir-
eases peculiar to women. It is
not a drug, but a food which
nourishes and strengthens the
affected parts, thereby enabling
nature to throw off the disease.

FOR A PERFECT FORM
A NEW GOWN TO GIVE STOUT WOM
EN A CHANCE.
It Sets the rig-are Off to Advantage OUr
Harper "Dotes" on a Black Silk Cat to
Slake the Waist Look Trim The Sea
son's Trifles Dress Combination.
Special Correspondence. 1
New York, April 19. One of the
most novel as well as prettiest new de
signs in the form of a gown came under
my notice today. The material was a
hairline black and gray silk, heavy in
texture and of a pleasing color, as it
had the appearance of dark gray until
it was closely examined. This was cut
to fit like a princess dress, but the front
was cut in six parts, reaching from top
to bottom, each piece curving in to lit
the figure td perfection..
Indeed nothing short of physical per
fection will do for this kind of a gown.
Every seam from top to bottom is piped
THE LATEST IDEA.
with a heavy cord covered with reseda
green velvet. It fits in the back in the
same way, except that at the three mid
dle seams the fullness of three breadths
is laid under in fan plaits. It fastens
invisibly in front. The sleeves are
drooping puffs of the same material as
the dress, with standing ruffles at the
shoulders fastened in regular plaits to
the gown. There are drooping ruffs at
tho elbow. Around these and at the
wrists are rows of velvet ribbon. This
ia a real boon to the woman of perfect
proportions, for lately she has had . no
chance to show her figure to advantage.
What with the ruffles, draperies, capes
and berthas, the slender woman has
looked even better than her plumper sis
ter. I predict- an instant success for this
elegant novelty.
. Her sister in her rich black armure
silk, with its wide skirt trimmed and
festooned with black velvet ribbon lux
uriously twisted in a manner to take up
dozens and dozens of yards, her draped
waist also decorated with ribbon and a
deep cape of velvet made with a direct
view to making her waist look small
and her shoulders large, cannot, meta
phorically speaking, hold a caudle to
her for stylo or beauty. To achieve the
snug fitting gown all the seams must
be fitted while the gown is on wrong
side out.
But what a triumph for a dressmaker
if she does get a good fit!
Now, that black silk gown is really
beautiful. The drapery is graceful, that
gathered yoke gives broken lines and
consequently softness to the face, and,
as I said before, the wide cape and full
sleeves make the waist look trim and
round, while the wrinkled surplice at
the bottom of the waist is extremely
elegant, and a black silk gown is such a
comfort. It is always genteel and lady
like in any place or on any occasion; so,
after all, I think, if offered a choice, I
should prefer the black silk, but still the
other is very stylish.
Tea caps have come to stay. Every
house now gives one to match every tea
gown. But some of them are larger than
the bonnets. One I saw was made of
cream lace, like a flat alsatian bow, tied
with cherry ribbons. Another, shaped
just like a cockleshell, was of mazarin
blue velvet, with a fall of lace in front
and a long piece of lace hanging in the
back. This was made for a young lady
and looked youthful and "awfully styl
ish." There is no end to the number of
styles for hats this season. Some and
the most have flowers, but really the
most satisfactory hats have feather trim
ming, generally quills, short ostrich
tufts or a group of pinions in irregular
lengths. One such had blue straw brim
bordered with jet spangles. For trim-

ming there was a bunch of bluish crow
pinions and a mass of bow loops. For
a little girl there was a pretty "best
hat" of silver gray straw, with a very
wide brim bent down on the sides and
up in the front and back. Two rosettes
of silver gray ribbon were set on the
crown, one on each side, ending in long
strings to tie under the chin. On the
top were two mottled gray quills with
tiny gilt spangles.
Among the newest combinations in
making up gowns I notice challie and
cashmere with lace and ribbon trim
mings. China silk and nun's veiling
make another combination, as do crepon
and velutina, and granite cheviot and
camel's hair. One would think these
goods too near alike to f orm the contrast
of material necessary for a striking cos
tume, but curiously enough they are
effective. ' Olive Harper.

A contemporary complains that by the
proposed suffrage bill in Massachusetts
tho ballot is to be given to all kinds of
women, those who have material inter
ests and those who have none, those
who are intelligent and those who are
not, those who have character and those
who have none. But why is it any more
wrong or dangerous td give the ballot to
all kinds of women than to all kinds of
men? If the ballot is to be restricted to
perfect women, let us also restrict it to
perfect men. Boston Globe.
