Prevailing flat ktyles are dri\ out puffs. Empire aprons are effective fur small girls. Cuff ruffles are as popular as throat frills. Muffs for the approaching seasolt are iniluense. An air of se\ erity marks the har:lsomest of the gowns. Many fashion prophets predict a ''green" winter. Pure olive oil way be used tt clean a black chip hat. Junipers still hold. their own, especially for girls. Si17c sto_•kings ere much more commonly wore than a year ago. Green is the artistic color for heme decorations this year. Sealskin promises to be the fav• orite fur for the corning fall. Stripes have asserted themselves tremendously in Madras waists. A great ninny colored and black coats are seen wish white skirts. Scarlet and blue macaw wings race a gond many of the simple hats. Short skirted costumes hang as straight and as limp as the long c.nes. Next season's styles almost sure- ly promise long and tight fitting Sleeves. Tor either house or street wear, frock and shoes match in correct ccst renes. Handsome pompadour silk para- sols are lined with green to give ad- ded protection to the eyes. Buttons are used on the latest gowns and costumes to an extent unheard of in former seasons. Among furs, squirrel, dyed a bril- liant brown, will snake some of the handsomest winter garments. It is probable that peau de silk, rt favorite eight or ten years ago, w ill be popul..r again this fall. Among the materials for smart tailored waists, ponge and madras are both enjoying a wonderful vogue. The latest vagary of the scarf is one of mercerized material, such as cotton voile, printed wash net, or hall silk gauze. I''oreiga letters tell of extreme simplicity in the costumes cf the most fashionable women at the big spas and seaside resorts. Cream white madras is often used for bedroom curtains where econo- my is desired. It comes out of the wash with flying colors. Favorite neck ruches for street wear are composed of wide, soft black ribbon, with wide white frills at top and bottom. Buttons with mirror centres, rimmed with gold, aro popular in Paris, and promise to make their way to this country soon. A white hat may be cleaned by scruhhing with a nail brush dipped in warns, soapy water and then cov- ered with white of an egg, beaten to a froth. The style of hats to snatch the gown is a thing of the past. A con- trasting color to harmonize is the latest thing from Paris. A new buttoned oxford has come in rather late, to he worn with the lingerie dresses, and colored stock- ings are fashionable with it. A favorite color just now is a de- licious shade of apricot, which blends admirably with the fashion- able black hatof immense dimen- sions. • The highirdle of fancy Parisian ricks and velvets is much worn, but it is becoming only to those with long and slender figures. There is a peculiar charm abeet the white hats of soft, pliable atraw simply trimmed with bows of white or delicately colored ribbon. The kid waistcoat. made of limp leather and elaborate midi braid, promises to have a great segue when the cool days come. Amt s.aeo of these waistcoats are hand painted. No longer is plain stitching the rrincipal decoration of the tailor ii,ade coat. Whether it he of cloth, linen. or silk it is trimmed either with braid or with straps or bands of different materials. A Pi1YSICAL WRECK!. A Resident of Ottawa finds Relief In Pe-ru-nay WAITING FOR -► FORTUNE. qtr. Blinkey Not Worrying Over It, but All Ready for It. Like many another man, Mr. Plinkcy is always hoping that some- thing will turn up. He's an anted -- gent man and he knows perfectly well that there isn't one chance in sc ven hundred and eighteen thou- sand million billion that he'll ever get a dollar that he doesn't work for and earn ; and still he's always hoping and thinking that something might happen. And so when he gets to the office in the morning he looks in the let- ter box there, not really with the oxpectation of finding a fortune, but nevertheless thinking that there nt'gl►t be something; not disap- pointed if there isn't, but wishing that he might find there a check for a million dollars from somebody or somewhere, or notice of some for- tune that had been left to him that he was now to come and claim. It's just the same when he goes home at night. He's been away all day, time enough for forty things to happen, for forty fortunes to come in, and he knows there hasn't !any come, and still it is not an ab- sclutely impossible thing, and so he's always kind o' hoping that he'll hear some good news when he goes home. He never does, he finds everything going along there placidly; there, hasn't been any fortune sent in or I brought in, and he knows they'd speak of it if there had been; but sometimes he says to \1 rs. Blinkey jokingly : "Anybody leave us two million dollars to -day 1" "No," says. Mrs. Blinkey smiling- ly. "One million t" "No." "Half a million, maybe," says Mr. Blinkey. "No, nor half a million," says Mrs. B. "Perhaps it was a hundred thou- sand dollars. We could do with that." "No, nor a hundred thousand." "Not a dollar?" says Mr. Blin- key. lin- k "No, not even a dollar," says Mrs. Blinkey. "Well, then," says Lir. Blinkey, "I guess I'll smoke my pipe," and be does this right cheerfully. But he's always hoping. SAVE THE CHILDREN. M R. R EN E ST. JEAN, 210 St. Patrick street, Ottawa, Ont., ('an., writes: "I believed a year ago that I could stand anything. I worked hard, kept irregular hours, and did net mind the loss of a few meals, but in six weeks I had changed to a physical wreck. "Eight bottles of Peruna brought back iluy strength." Mr. A. O.

He writes as fol- lows: "Ever since I have been handling Peruna, I have had a fine trade. Once a family buys a bottle, I am sure of selling them more, and it never fails to bring additional cus- tomers. "I have nothing better for ca- tarrh in all of its various forms.

Sold by weight, it fetches a higher price than any of the precious metals, the market price working out at aiout $30,000 per pound --troy. And when cine considers how dangerous and difficult it is to obtain the ven- om, these prices are easily under- stood. The snakes must he captured alive. To do so, many hunters catch the reptiles with their hands, hold- ing their slippery prey firmly till the poison is deposited in a bag or box. Sometimes the entire poison -sac is cut out. The operator lays open the snake's head, and, having de- tached the sac, seals it up until re- quired. Other operators irritate the reptile, causing it •to Lite through incliurubber bands, and de- posit the poison on a glass plate below. A venomous snake has two pcison-fangs in the upper jaw, and when goaded, it pierces the india- rubber, and pours its streams of poison upon the glass plate. The poison is afterwards scraped to- gether and placed in hermetically - sealed phials. The operators ' ork, as may be imagined, is often more dangerous than that of the collec- the path for the newly -married cou- tut•• hie to walk over.
