NEW COIFFURES.
Pompadour "Will Be Worn
Low and the Sides Will
Be Broadened.
PEEFUMES^GAININUEE
Arranging thf> Guest Room—
The Bride’s Trousseau
Elephant Skin Case.
A very important part of the dress in
the coming fashions is in the coiffures.
'lhe general tendency among the ultra
fasltiouahie is the broadening effect at
the sides and a pretty low and elaborate
coiff ure. - 'This broadening effect on the
sides, with a rather low pompadour and
n low coiffure favors the wearing of low
and very broad hats, and the back of the
brim in some cases turned down as far as
six inches and profusely trimmed with
loops of ribbons and lovely flowers. With
such elaborate hats severe costuming
would not be in keeping with this style
of tiead-tlress. They make necessary
some fancy ideas in five sleeves and skirt
and some striking to the bodice.
The new form of pompadour comb lias
made a palpable hit. This new mode}
has a projecting bridge, which is des
tined to accomplish what the plain pomp
adour couib failed to do, that is. to retire
• .e unsanitary “rat'’ froinSvomen’s eoif
2uie$. The latest pompadour comb has
a double row of teeth—one above and one
below. The advantage of the double row
of teeth is that it not only keeps the
pompadour from slipping forward, but
also prevents the hair from parting and
exposing the comb. An innovation has
been made in side and back combs, which
are made with ball point grip teeth; hence
they cannot fall out. Nor, as might be
feared, will they scratch or tear the hair.
Moreover the teeth are wider apart than
in the ordinary comb, to give that wavy
effect to the hair so devoutly coveted.
This comes in shell and amber and can
be purchased at 25 cents.
Women are using more perfumes now
than for a long time, and they'have a
novel way of introducing fragrant arti
cles into the wardrobe. A soft mass of !
pink, blue or lavender is often noticeable
glimmering faintly, througkt the front of
a dress nodice, and it looks as though
it wus the satin bows of the lingerie, j
but it is nothing slea than a silken heart j
delicately scented with sachet powder.
During autumn and early winter popular
scents will be those which society women
are now adopting. A new and very strong
essence of violets, a lasting and fasci
nating perfume, which does not disclose
its identity with any flower or scent
is in favor. Other new toilet essences of
the season are one with a delicate sug
gestion of old Spanish leather, another
a true production of the fragrance of
Southern jasmine, sweet orchid, a pecul
iar and pleasant perfume, and amber
lavender, of which Parisians use a great
deal.
' American women are more likely to
patronize the perfume of some one
flower than the bouquets, which foreign
ers appear to prefer, ulthough with the
exception of the violet, bouquet ex
tracts are the leading extracts of the sea
son. In most of tViem one seems to de
tect an Oriental breath exhaled among
Cowers, and very fascinating. Several
new concentrated violet extracts are on
the market, for in.this country there is
always an endeavor being made to make
violet essence more and more like that
of the flower itself.
A thoughtful woman after arranging
the linen and towels in her guest room,
had a vague uneasiness that something
might have been forgotten which would
add to her coming visitor's comfort, and
it occurred to her to “visit herself” pre
cediug her friend’s arrival. The next
morning she moved into the guest room
the articles she would have been likely
to bring with her on a visit and took up
her abode. Her first need was for silk
to mend her gloves, but instead of going
ber own complete work basket
in the next room, she bought a fresh sup
ply and began fitting up a work basket
for the exclusive use of the guest. On
her way down town she ripped oft a few
inches of dress braid, which suggested
the purchasing of some heavy cotton
thread, besides cards of assorted hooks
and eyes and a piece of tape. She reso

the cause of appendicitis. Always it leads
to dangerous chronic disease. It should
not be neglected, nor should it be tempor.
arily relieved with drastic purgatives. Here
is a case in point:
Mr. C. 8. Oeterhoudt, of Barrytown, N.
Y., was distressed with indigestion, chronic
constipation and kidney trouble for four
yedts. He tried many medicines without
relief. He heard of Oal-cura Solvent, Dr.
Kennedy’s new medicine, used it and began
to improve rapidly. All of his old com
plaints have disappeared and he owes
everything to Oal-cura Solvent. $1.00,

lutely duplicated every thing which she
was tempted to go to her own work bask
et to find.
The second night, on coming home late
from a lecture, she decided that a hot
water bag must be included in the list of
essentials, so the next day one was hung
upon a peg of the guest room closet.
She found that a cracker was a very
nice thing to have on hand at night and
might prove a great blessing for one whep
going to bed late, so a note was made
that the room was to be provided with a
tin box of crackers upon the day of the
visitor’s arrival. Court plaster and- a
new card of hairpins were added before
the week ended, and knowing, thatxnew
eomers often have hours of weakfulness
among strange surroundings, she also !
provided that most delightful aid to com
fort, a candle-lamp with a strong re
flector—making reading in bed a joy.
On the same stand which held the
candle she placed some small volumes
of essays, two volumes of Verse, one ■
humorous book, aud a popular novel, or i
two. In fact she suppiie.1 a book for
almost every mood. At the close of the
week the room had gained an air of com
fort and hominess which most guest
rooms entirely lack. It was not money
that brought about the magical effect,
but thought. The total expeuse amounted i
to but few dollars. .
A bride’s trousseau includes the wear- !

household linen necessary for two years.
A simple list of the latter inclr ’ four
table cloths, with four or live u, „ ap

adosen and a half pillow cases; two
dozen towels with diish and kitchen j
towels, doilies, centrepieces, bureau and |
washstand scarfs and other linen pieces
needed about the house.

HANDSOME GOWNS.

sions—Hick Appliques.
Gowns of chiffon for dressy occa
sions are very smart, and there is a
new make of chiffon which will stand
a good deal of wear. It Is very smart
in brown shades trimmed with ecru or
dyed face to match, combined with a
soft, tucked front and huge under
sleeves.
Velvet bows figure largely on veiling
gowns, and they are combined with ro
settes and puffings of chiffon. Some
times the huge chiffon undersleeves are
tied In with velvet bows at the wrists.
Square applications of figured or
plain velvet are very smart around the
lower edge of a loose sack coat or a
full sum plaited skirt.
Heavy embroideries of wool and che
nille are used to embellish white cloth
tailor made gowns and in general cos
tumes in pale colors.
Heavy knotted fringe Is still all the
rage as a trimming for dressy coats
and gowns.

such a revival, for taffeta, let me tell
you, is a worthy fabric for what may
be termed the “best” frock, either foi

TELLTALE LIPS. ”
How to .lailio a Woman by tho
Shape of Her Month.
“I judge a man by liis eyes, but a wo
man always by her lips,” said Benja
min Franklin. Aud no mail ever read
people more correctly.
Queen Elizabeth once refused to en
gage a, waiting woman who came with
every possible recommendation, “be
cause,” she said, “the woman is a tale
bearer. Do you not see the downward
dip of her lip? I will none of her.” 1
“In choosing a wife let her be a wo
man whose lips do not droop at the
corners,” advises a Persian sage. “If
a woman's lips droop her husband’s life
will be a perpetual mourning time.
Nor yet should they curve too much up
ward, for that denotes frivolity.”
Select for a wife on^ whose lips are
straight, not thin.
When the curve or arch is lacking
and the lip overhangs, not loosely, but
well defined and firm, the owner is gen
tle and ready to please.
The mouth of sagacity is large and
always well closed, with the line of the
lips firmly defined.
The witty mouth is thin lipped and
so polished and smooth that light
glgnces across it. The color is fine scar
let. The possessor of such a mouth
will say clever, scintillating things,
sacrificing her best friend for the sake
of an epigram.
Coquettish lips are sharply defined,
with a deep pressure under the nose
and the corners inclined upward. Here
lie laughter and fun and love of mu
sic, flowers and gnimals. The smile is
sympathetic, never tragic. Love of rid
icule will be strong, but not in a mali
' eious vein. If the corners dimple deep
ly the lips are quick at repartee.—Ex
change.
Map Making.
Map making has kept pace with the
progress of other arts, though its steps
are not so loud and are heard oftenest
in the schoolroom. It is really an art
to make a map and has always been
so. From the tim#1 of the earliest
crude affairs to the elaborate and ex
act pictures of today a great degree of
skill has always been necessary to
give a perfected representation. Map
making is now at the height of its ex
cellence and popularity. The man with
land to cultivate, houses to build or
land to sell must have everything set
down on his map for reference. No
body thinks of traveling any great dis
tance without consulting a map. In
deed it is almost impossible to escape
It, for the obliging ticket agent thrusts
It into one's hand with thoughtful.;
kindness, mindful of the advertise
ment within the pages as well as of the
convenience of the tourist. Maps are
so common now that there are no more
little boys who think the soil of one
state is green, another brown, another
red. because that is the way it is col
ored in the geography—Worcester Spy.
A City of Roof Gardens.
The majority of the houses in Buenos
Ayres have but one story, whose flat
roof serves all the purposes of Yankee
lawns and dooryards. While the pa
tios are frequently utilized as dining
and sitting rooms, it is the universal
custom to promenade in the cool of the
day on the house topsj to sit there at
morning and evening enjoying the re
freshing breezes, extensive views and
varied panorama in the street below.
The children find their favorite play
ground on the roof. There the nurses
bring their Infant charges, the seam
stress her sewing and the maid her
mistress’ bedraggled finery to put in
order again. The clothes are dried and
aired and ironed atop, and during the
“heated term” of this dewless latitude
thousands bring up tbeir beds and
sleep with the starry sky for a counter
pane.
HI* Master Stroke.
“George Ferguson.” said his wife,
looking with crushing scorn at the
gaudy rug he had bought at a special
sale, “I wonder if eter iU your life you
knew a good bargain when you saw
it?”
The case was critical. Mr. Ferguson
saw that something bold and decisive
must be done, and his mind worked
quickly.
“Why. ye3, Laura.” he said. “When
I wanted a wife I picked out the
nicest, sweetest little woman in the
whole world, and I got the best bar
gain any man ever got. There, there,
pet!”—Chicago Tribune.
Soapstone In Chin*.
The Chinese In utilizing soapstone,
which is found in their country In
large quantities, make of it trays for
pens, slabs for rubbing ink, flower

burners, flower baskets, candlesticks,
chessmen, cups, bowls and lamps, all
sorts of emblems, aninials and the
idols which the disciples of Confucius
revere with so much favor.
