There will be no flare whatever, and even if acme skirts are not actually narrower they will at least appear so from the absence of the flare. Many skirts, however, are appreciably narrower. They mea- sure from two to two and a quarter yards at the lower edge. When we compare these measurements with the three and four -yard skirts that were worn last spring, it leaves no doubt as to the change. From the Par- isian openings, which are now being held, we hear that the narrow skirt is no longer a rumor, but a fact. Separate skirts and blouses take on quite a good deal of importance this spring, The fact that separate skirts are in demand for sports wear will bring then very much into promin- ence. There are more skirts of sports silks and satins than of any other skirting materials. The sports silks '\in one -color effects; or in two shades; with large spots or stripes on a neutral background, seem to be the most popular. As for the blouses, we may witness a revival of the garden smock, which took so strong a hold a summer or so ago. One of these recently seen was ciuite different from the smock as we knew it last summer. It was of tango -red crepe, long and loose, and slipped on over the head.

With the coming of March people who are afflicted' with rheumatism begin to have unpleasant reminders of their. trouble. The weather is changeable -balmy and springlike one day, raw cold and piercing the next. It' is such sudden changes of weather that sots the pangs and tor- tures of rheumatism, lumbago and sciatica going. Sut it must be borne in mind that although weather condi- tions start the pains, the• trouble is deeply rooted in the blood, and can only be cured through the blood. All the lotions and liniments in the world can't cure rheumatism. Rub- bing niay seem to ease the pain while you are rubbing, but there its value ends. Only through the blood can you cure rheumatism. That's why Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have 30 many thousands of cures of this trouble to their credit. The new, rich blood which they actually make drives out the poisonous acid ' and rheumatism is•vanquished. Among many sufferers from rheumatism who have been' cured by this'medicine is Mr. C. H. McGee, freight' shed fore- man' for the. G. T. R. at Peterboro, who says: -"In the course of my work I am ,naturally exposed to all kinds of weather, with the result that about two years ago iI contracted rheumat- ism which settled in my legs. At times I could scarcely walk, and often had to quit my day's work owing: to the stiffness and the pain. I tried different remedies without getting any help until I began the use of Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills. I used; sly boxes of these and can say that ram about as well as ever I was. Estill take. the pills 'occasionally, and I hope that any experience may be of benefit to some other rheumatic sufferer." If you suffer from rheumatism, or any other disease of the blood, begin to cure yourself to -day with Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills..

A PATH OF GOLD. Interest of War Loans Amounted to £38,445,856 for 1914-15. The cost of the war has now reached such a fabulous amount that the or- dinaty mind fails to grasp the 'signi- ficance of the millions of pounds which are daily mentioned in the papers. It has been announced that the in terest•on the debt created by the war loans of 1914-15 amounted , to f38,- 445,856, or 8192,229,280 for the finan- cial year which ended last March. Supposing it were possible to place a line of sovereigns which represented this amount close together, the line would about reach from London to In- verness. If a man were invited to pick up each sovereign separately, and he was able to lift thirty sovereigns every minute, and worked five hours a clay, it would take him about twelve years to pick them yup, working every day of the year."'

Astronomers have long sought an explanation. of the aeceler- ated motion. The influence may pos- sibly proceed from some other un- known planet revolving within its -or bit. Whatever the cause, the effect is unmistakable. There ate hidden influences that as yet are a deep mys- tery to the astronomer. Science is full of things similarly inexplicable.

"The wind bloweth where it listeth, thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh and wither it go- eth."
