A few straw hats have made their appearanee. '!'here is a fad for soft suede lea- ther neckties. Toques are still large, broad, and heavy looking. There is a hint of revolt against the empire style. The shawls of sixty years ago are again in good style. Cotton velvets are much used for tailor-made suits just now. Satin hats, trimmed with fur, are having a considerable vogue. Strings are being worn on hats, and tied under the chin. Men's scarf pins are growing larger and more elaborate. The parasol handle of the long directoire fashion is considered smart. The prestige of satin faced ma- terials continues unabated. Newzist hats are being exclusive- ly trimmed on the right side. Shirred gruzo or satin is playing a leading part in the new hats. Bandeaux will have little use in the hats planned for spring. Toques of straw are being trimmed with fancy rims and fea- thers. Pale pastel blue is beautiful with the new shade known as wistaria. The new Chinese cotton crepes of lmy texture are used for dainty white frocks. The new hand embroidery towels have the embroidery across one end only. A little fan -shaped plaiting of real taco is a great help to the sa- tin and fur hats. Embroidered and braided materi- als that require handwork have a great popularity. The silk manufacturers are doing their best to bring brocades into broad and general use. Round tablecloths are popular; 'tome of the handsomest of them have the Greek key border. Paris says that guimpes and sleeves for next spring will be made of embroidered chantilly. Tho newest straw hats have brims wet over two inches wide, and some of them have no brims at all. White cotton marquisette, sprink- led with dots, is one of the most 'effective of the spring materials. Paris has a new skirt known as the "reasonable" skirt. The back is furnished with two plaits, which give a certain fulness where it is wlost needed. The big hat hangs on in spite of all the attractive forms of head- gear that have been designed to replace it, and still is predominant In dress effects. For centerpieces and scarfs grass linen worked with Chinese embroi- dery is usually dainty and pleas- ing. e FIJI 310NKEY GAME. )clad Sport That Natives Sometimes Indulge In. In the Fiji "Monkey Game" laughter reaches its highest point, for this is one of the wildest they play ; and not only the children in- dulge in it, but the grown-up men sonletirnes take it into their heads to play it, when it assumes a very different aspect. With the chil- dren it is pure fun, with little or no danger attaching to it. A crowd of youngsters line up and move about like monkeys who are merely enjoying themselves. Suddenly one of them stops and gives vent to a shriek of fear ; the others take up the cry and immedi- ately break their line and run wildly all over the place, chatter- ing excitedly. When the simulated banic is at its height, the smaller oys spring on to the backs of the bigger ones, and are raced about all over the place till fatigue puts an end to the fun. When their eklers play the "Monkey (lane," however, they often become so worked up that they really behave like a crowd of monkeys gone Nark mad. Sir Eterard Thum. at present Go cruor of Fiji, relates a most trying experience he went through during one of these mad frolics. fle says that the players burst sud- denly in amongst the huts, swarmed up the roofs. tearing great mouth- fuls of thatch away in their flight, and then dash into the room, up- setting everything they conic across and destroying food and furniture. "Tho old man of the Settlement and his wife. in real anxiety for their gcodi tried to protect what they could, tearing it even from out of the 'monkeys' ' hands or throwing food to them to distract their attention from more valuable property." it's better to fight and run away than it is to stick it out and pny a ne.

CARE OF TIIE PIANO. Never Allow Instrument to Stand ('lose Against a Wall. Tho dusting and polishing of the piano, whether it be a new and valuable baby grand, or the hum- ble and more cozy upright, should never be, left to the maid, Lttt should bo done by the daughter of the house herself. It should be done with a fine cheese cloth or linen cloth, or, better still, with an old silk handkerchief. There should be neither seam nor hem in the dust cloth, as any inequality or hardness is apt; to scratch the piano polish. Cloudy spots are best removed by pouring a few drops of benzine on the dust cloth, and then rubbing lightly and in the same direction tili they disappear. The carved legs should be dusted with a soft brush, as should also the rack and other ornamental trimmings. To restore the whiteness of the keys wash lightly and most care- fully, so no moisture gets into the instrument or between the keys, with a teaspoonful of hydro super oxide dissolved in a pint of water. The piano should never stand close against a wall ; if practicable even the upright should stand fully out in the room. The direct rays of the sun upon it, dampness and drafts all should bo carefully avoid- ed. Tho piano should be entirely opened once a month and examined for moths, which are apt to estab- lish themselves inside tht felting and es ruin the instrument. ENGLISH SHOPPING. Toronto "Truth" says : We had no idea how easy and convenient it was to shop in England, until we made a trial of it recently with that old and reliable firm of Wal- pole Brothers, (established in 1766), 89 and 98 New Bond Street, London \V.

He suffered for Five years and was Four Months ort work, but Dodd's Kldnsy Pills Cured Him. Alfred Station, Ont., Mar. 20 (Special).—After being laid off work fur four months by kidney disease and rheumatism, from which lie had been a sufferer for five years, Abraham Garand, a section man on the railway hero, is back at work again and he gives ali the credit for his cure to Dodd's Kidney Pills. "I ata forty -ono years old," Mr. Garand said, when asked about his cure. "And have been section man here fo.- tee sears. Fur five years I suffered from kidney dis- ease and rheumatism, also sciatica in my right hip, which descended to my feet. For four months I could not work. Heading of cures by Dodd's Kidney Pills led me to try them. I used nine boxes in all and to -day I am advising all who suf- fer from rheumatism to use Dodd's Kidney Pills." Rheumatism and sciatica are caused by diseased kidneys failing to strain the uric acid out of the blood. Cure the Kidneys with Dodd's Kidney Pills and they will strain the uric acid out of the blood. Then you can't have rheu- matism. WORLD'S OLDEST SOLDIER. Czar Kindly Greets a Veteran of 120 Years. Probably the oldest soldier in the world, Andrei Nikolaievitsch Schmidt, who is aged 120 and fought in the Russian army during the Napoleonic wars, recently ar- rived in St. Petersburg with the ob- ject of seeing the Czar. Though the newspapers at St. Petersburg have heard nothing of it, Schmidt was granted a private audience of the Czar. Schmidt was extremely proud, and despite his immense age he bore himself with martial air. Ho was introduced into the Czar's study, and his Majesty re- ceived the veteran with extreme kindness.

French soldiers in their late Mo- roccan campaign exercised great self-control, despite the awful tests put upon it by the cruel practices o!' the Moors. Of the scene after one battle a writer says: "As the chasseurs swept over the ground fur the third time, they, indeed, saw sights which made them little in- clined to grant the quarter prayed for by the wretchea on whom they were spurring. Naked lay all their fallen comrades; ono poor fellow had had his eyes gouged out; the blood was streaming from their sockets; he was still alive. Another had been disemboweled ; a 'third was found with bound hands beside a fire, his head charred to a cin- der." NEGLECTED SCALD CAUSED MONTHS OF AGONY. Spent Dollars in Vain, but Zam- Buk Cured Her. Following we give the testimony of a lady who if she had known of Zam-Buk earlier would have been saved nine weeks of agony: Mrs. Frederick Bryant, of 169 Railway Avenue, Stratford, Ont., says :—"I scalded my foot while preparing supper. Next day the skin came off and my foot was in a serious condition. I could not wear my shoe and had to lay up for nine weeks. During this time used dozens of salves, but none did any good, in fact the wound developed into a running sore. I got no rest day or night from the London and Northwestern is One of the Most Popular. Among all the great railways in England the London and North- western stands out as one of the best managed, safest and smoothest railways in that tight little isle. Travellers from this side of the water aro landed in Liverpool right alongside the connnodious and con- venient Riverside Station of this railway, where, without any extra cost for transfer of luggage, and with the utmost facility and de- spatch, and without leaving cover, they can take the train for any part of the United Kingdom. Speoial corridor trains, three or four if necessary, for London, are always in waiting on tnc arrival of the great steamships, that there may be no delays whatever. These trains are models of excellence and convenience, and have luxuri- ous dining cars attached, general- ly two on each train, whore most excellent meals aro well served at reasonable prices. Tho coaches are kept very clean, and are well hung, and as the roadbed is one of the best in England, there is very little vibration, even when travelling at sixty to seventy miles per hour. All Canadians will make no mis- take in seeing that they are booked via the London and Northwestern always. If some men were to lose their self-conceit there wouldn't be much left.
