pushes forward his fold collars in the
window and interior displays. Scarce-
ly a lie(rge dealer but gives the great -4
er prominence to that style.;
There is a great variety of wing
collars being shown to the trade,
from those with very small tabs to
others with very large ones. To
avoid both of these extremes should
be the dealer's aim, The great de-
mand for wings is on the shapes with
medium-sized wings, both round and
square corners going well.
Wing collars are making slow but
sure headway in popular favor. The
goods in demand are chiefly of the
better class, and cheap wing -collard
have not yet been asked for. The
long run of the fold collar does not
seem to be finished yet by any means,
and it will take a mighty effort to
drive it from the market. The wing
collar is now being placed in all
grades. 01 course the style is a
refined one, with email wings fitting
fairly close up to the neck.
l3eautiful they are, and what a var-
iety, to choose frown—taffeta, peau de
sole, 1Lbesty, velvet, lace, mousseline,
crepe do chene. etc., tucked, embroi-
dered,
nbroi-dered, trimmed with 3,ace, faggoting,
and, in short, adorned with every
;trimming the mind can conceive and
the fingers execute.
The girl of to••dtay, without her
separate waist who can imagine her ?
It forms one of the most important
parts of her costume. By means of
it she can make LreBuent changes in
her costume, and at small trouble or
expense. See her in a neat tailor-
made custume for the street. Let
her only .take off her coat and note
the change 1 she .wears an elaborate
silk or lace .waist, and is now ready
for theatre or reception. In short,
given waists of different degrees of
elaborateness, you can dress appro-
priately for almost any occasion.
And now for silk •yvaists. And, in-
deed, any girl may be pardoned for
going iiito raptures over them. Such
combinations of soft silk and filmy
chiffon ! Such ,beautiful models in
velvets and rich lace ! And then for
practical wear, such swell little af.
fairs of taffeta and. liberty.
The two last-named materials are
by, far the most popular for ,en-
talwear. They look equally well
e
,when plainly made or heavily orna-
mented. Indeed, many of the cutest
and most sty lash waists are abso-
lutely plain, and only relieved by
the fancy neckwear chosen to wear
with them.
The taffeta waist is an old time
favorite, and no other fabric ever
seems quite to take its place. One
pretty model .WAS of pale blue silk,
the front plait, the yoke and the
sleeves by ,the shoulders of fine
tucking ; the tucking on the yoke
adorned with little embroidered sun-
burst --like effects, with the centres
solidly worked. The belt is of self
material with 'eat -stitched edge, and

are cut out of the silk and attached
to the bod,,y of the blouses by fag-
goting. This trimming generally out -
linos the yoke, and is repeated ngtin
aolioss the ,baggy part of the sleeve.
'S ing Collars Gaining Ground.
The wing or tab collar among the
best -dressed sten is now: the lead-
ing style, and it is gaining in pop-
ularity daily. Whether the fashion
In collars is governed by that in
neckwear, or vice versa, manufactur-
ers of both articles are not agreed
But the wing collar Is undoubtedly
the most suitable for the form of
neckwear that is to be in vogue
during the winter months, as It will
go well with any largo Lie, partic-

are quite dry they should be gently
massaged with the fingers for a
few minutes.
If the skin is very rough and red
use an ointment when massaging.- A
good one is made of three ounces
of oil of sweet almonds; five drains
of white wax, ten drams of rose
water, two drams of tincture of
benzoin, one ounce of honey, and one
dram of essence of rose.
Melt the wax in a double boiler
and slowly add the oil of sweet al-
monds. Then remove from fire and
the other ingredients, one by one,
stirring all the while,
Atter a thorough washing with
soap and warm water, sponge the
skin with rum and ice cold water
in equal quantities., Rum gives tone
to the flesh and makes it delight-

the ILes1i until it glows and tingles.

Melt the wax and spermaceti in a
double boiler. Remove from the fire
and while still warm add the oil of
poppy and almonds and beat to-
gether until they cream. Then add
the balsam and the rose water. Put
into a porcelain jar and cover with
a little rose water. Violet water
may be substituted for rose water
if preferred.
If a powder is ever desired for the
arms and neck, make one by pound-
ing in a mortar starch and a trifle
of alum—say one-half teaspoonful
of alum to one-half a pound of
starch. Sift through a thin mar-
lin cloth. '
Before powdering the arms take
a little glycerine and lemon juice,
and with the palm of the hand rub
Although beautiful arms are nat-
ure's gift, they may, also be culti-
'vated. According to artists and
sculptors, perfect arms are rarely
given to women, but, as one often
sues arms that seem very lovely, it
may, be concluded that inartistlo
lines can be concealed by the drap-
ery at the shoulder, and that, even
if every. curve does not conform to
beauty's law, at least arms may be
made of satin smoothness and ala-
baster whiteness by careful atten-
tion to details.
Judging from famous statues the
arms should have a round and flow-
ing outline, with no sharpness at the
elbow. It should taper gently down
to a small wrist. In one statue the
proportions are as follows.
Length of arm from should-
er to finger tips .........29 7-101n:
Length of arm from el-
bow .. ...18 1-8 in.
Length of arm from el-
bow to finger tips 16 1-2 in.
Around the upper arm 10 1-2 in.
Around the elbow 11 1-4 In.
Around the forearm 9 15-16 in.
Around the wrist .. 5 1-2 in.
If the arm is not sufficiently de-
veloped to reach the standard of
beauty, if it is a blanched and ten-
der pipestem, try dumb -bells or In-
dian cluibs. Swing the arms upraised,
a weignt in each hand, around the
head, backward and forward.
Stretch each arm in turn at right
ilii angles to the body. While holding
one arm one
this position move the
other one to the back, holding the
club or dumbbell across the should-
ers, then across the lower part of
the back.
These are excellent exercises for
moulding the arms into form and
! beauty.
If real dumbbells are not avail-
able, grasp an imaginary dumbbell
in each hand and extend the arms
horizontally, at the side. Then move
them slowly forward until the closed
hands touch, keeping the hands
about on a level with the shoulders.
Return them, not only to position,
but as far back as possible without
lowering the hands and arms be-
neath the level of the s.hotilders. Al-
low the body, to sway forward when
the alms go back, but do not duck
the head, nor allow the body to bend
at the waist.
Take a. deep inhalation while the
arms are extended at the side, and
move the arms slowly forward and
back before exhaling. tise some force
while going through these move-
ments. Don't act like a.lily, broken
at the stern.
There are many other movements
for moulding the arms.
Raise them high hi front, stiff and
straight, and then let them fall. Re-
peat this exercise five or six times.
Let them form an arch above the
head, raising, then] slowly from the
sides, first with the palms ottt, then
with the patens in.
Double the forearm until it rests
upon the upper arm, bringing the tips
of the fingers, •paln]s up, upon the
shoulders. Then join the palms in
front with arms outstretched and
stretch them backward as flax as
)lossible. Repeat each of these
movements several times.
Closo the fists with vigor and twist
the hands and arms as far around
as possible, the elbows remaining
stiff, and the upper part of the arms
unmoved. The arms should bo on a
line with the shoulder.

can be secured. If a perfumed soap
is preferred, use that which is scent-

She, is able to say, " The Cure was
Permanent."
Platteville, Ont., Jan. 5.—(Special.)
—„The cure was permanent.” In this
one short sentence Mrs. J. Barnett,
of this place, gives the sequel to a
long tale of suffering and misery. It
is about four years since Mrs. Bar-
nett gave the public the story or
her sufferings and their happy end-
ing. In view of the sequel given above
it is well worth repeating:
" I had been ailing for years," said
Mrs. Barnett. "My symptoms were
Nervousness, Rheumatism In the left
arm, pains In the small of the back,
up the spinal column and back of the
head, through the eyes, left side of
thc: body and occasionally the right
side. I grew weak for I had no
appetite and I could not sleep. I was
a physical wreck.
I was treated by the doctors, but
their medicines afforded me no relief.
Then I started taking Dodd's Kidney
Pills. Before I bad finished one box
there was an improvement in my
condition. My appetite returned, the
pain was lessened, and I was able to
sleep. I took twelve boxes .and was
completely cured. I ascribe my re-
covery to Dodd's Kidney Pills."
A TOWN OF ALIASES
There is a town in Russia known
by, the several unpronouncable
names of Ischig.ri, Schtschigri and
Tschigri.
(Hard enough to remember how to
spell any one of them.)
A jury returned a verdict there not
many months since after a most
thorough and exhaustive trial and
investigation.
Implicated in the affair were some
o•t the most prominent business
houses in the world, and avast num-
ber of other persons were more or
less interested in the verdict, to say
nothing of the anxiety of the prin-
cipals.
The jury was comprised of three
members of the Provincial Council,
three estate owners, a delegate of
the Russian Government and three
district agricultural inspectors.
After spending a day and a half
on the case, the jury found the Mas-
sey-Rarris Binder worthy of the
highest award in competition with
other machines, and bestowed on it
the Minister of Agriculture's Gold
Medal.
They based 'their decision an the
facts that the Massey -Harris Bill*
der possessed "Higher and better
road wheel than either of the other
firms, a. most satisfactory reel with-
out chain -gearing ; a floating up-
per elevator ; main. road wheel sub-
stantially hung and supported."
They ,added that the machine gave
the impression of solid, substantial
construction.
The verdict has since received uni-
versal endorsation.

21, 22. Prove—On the other hand',
do not accept as genuine all that
may claim to be genuine. It is your
duty to probe, test, try all such
manifestations and "hold fast" only
the good. But the exhortation here
is capable of the widest application.
We are to discern between truth
and error, and sift the chaff from
the wheat. Hold fast—We should ne-
ver allow the good to slip from us.
"Buy the truth and sell it not." To
do this will take a strong effort an
our part. Abstain —Not only hold
fast the good, but abstain from and
renounce the evil which may have
been detected as a result of proving
all things.
III. Sanctification promised (vs.
23, 24). 23. God of peace —"Peace is
the sum of all spiritual blessings
that man receives and experiences."
The apostle prays that the God of
peace might sanctify, them wholly.
The Thessalonian Christians were
truly. regenerated; they bad had a
genuine conversion (see chap. 1), and
yet they needed entire sanctifica-
tion. Sanctify you wholly —The
work of sanctification was begun in
conversion, and now it was their pri-
vilege to • be made complete —to be
sanctified wholly.
IV. Concluding words (vs. 25.28).
25, 26. Pray for us —St, Paul fre-
quently made this request. If be, in
all the strength of his gifts and his
office, felt his dependence on the
prayers of the church, how much
more should we.
27, 28. Adjure you —Literally, I
put you upon oath to do this. The
tains all spiritual good that one
Christian can wish another."
Teachings.—God's people are a re-
joicing, praying, thanksgiving peo-
ple. They believe in the baptism of
the (Holy Spirit. We are responsible
for what we believe as well as for
what we do. Through faith we may
in this life be cleansed from all sin.
