Fashion Hints NOTES FROM PARIS SHOPS, The pump bow is seen yet at the bank of the girdle, Large, buttons and Small ones will both be used, Throe thingsmust match your dress—your shoes, bag, and hat, Knitted jackets, short and long, show improvements in form and in finish. White satin veiled with Chantilly makes up some of the richest gowns of the season, Sealskin, lynx, sable, blaeii mar- ten, ermine, and mink will be the millinery furs, Tartan plaid sashes and trim- mings of surah are announced for brightening up dark blue dresses. All skirt; of evening gowns and for dressy afternoon functions will be made with small, slender trains. Tulle is much in evidence for trimming the finer hats and gowns. and for all sorts of accessories. Belts of suede and patent leather will continue in firat fashion for late summer and early fall wear. Thick ribbed voila, almost -cor- duroy in appearance, is used in some of the handsome imported cos- tumes. Taffeta, satin, marquisette, and. chiffon are used for the smartest of the separate waists, and these are variously trimmed to correspond with the general style of the cos- tume., Braid, beads, and buttons are all to be seen in the decorations of blouses, while tiny vests of tucked chiffon or net give an air of smart- ness to many of the more elaborate blouses. Voile, .Henrietta, panama, serge of many qualities and characteris- tics, fancy cheviots and suitings are all for fall wear, with serge cheviot, and broadcloth especially for suits. Narrow self-ruohings and shirred bands are among the modish trim- mings alike for the separate blouse end the dress of satin, Oourtauld's crepe de chine, voile, or other likely materials. New are the hat shapes covered with suede or suede cloth. the lat- ter decorated withflowers having very pointed petals and clustered on the brim, which is turned back flat. Silk plush, almost "shaggy" in effect, is being projected by cer- tain of the leading fashion crea- to>•ss as something novel and dis- tinguished. Rs chief usewill be as u trimming and for millinery' pur- poses. Negligee are highly interesting, many. of them being fashioned .with the exaggerated armhole that simu- lates the kimono effect and that has the sleeve cut a little wider at the top and fitted into the arm with •a self -covered cord. The revival of fringe trimming is. supposed to bear some relation to the tentative resuscitation of mid- Victorian styles, with their sugges- tion of fuller skirts, "Spencer" waists, shawl fichus. and the "bon- net" accessory. Lingerie frocks and silk coats will Fast as long as they can possibly be. worn alone or under an auto coat. To make them very smart the taffeta coat must be short, as a bolero or coat with plaited or gathered hasque, and bord`-id' with swans- down,taffeta gl'aeed. Mention must be made of the new blouses that have assumed Goatee semblance. They are termed "re- versible" or "coat waists" by the sponsors, and in many instances are made of two tone or double faced --satin, finished with revers of the "wrong" side and having, as a sali- ent feature, a belt of the material or of leather. The extension below the belt.ns a matter of about four ,, inches, and sometimes the peplum, is topped by a fringe of line width, orhas the hem edged with a narrow fringe. EVEN HARDER. "It's' hard for a man to get along ,without a woman," "There's only one thing harder." "What?" "To get along with. one.", During the first six months of the present year there have been 650,- 000 deaths in India from plague. In the last ten years tubereulo- sis has steadily decreased in Eng- land, Scotland, Ireland, and Ger- many. "Flow did :you happen to hose out?"

As the disease progresses this twitching takes the form of spasms in which the jerking motion may be eonflned to the head, or all the limbs may be affected, The pati- ent is frequently unable to hoar anything in the hands or to walk steadily, and in severe oases even the speech is affected. The disease is due to debility of the nerves and is always cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, which enrich the blood, tone and strengthen the nerves and thus restore the sufferer to good health. The following is a 'striking instance of what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do in this trouble. Mrs. Chas. Phipps, Pelee Island, Ont., says :-"At the ago of fourteen my eldest daughter, Edith, became much run down, and the trouble developed into St, Vitus dance, First her left arm became affected, then the left leg and • entire .left side. She grew so bad thatshe actually could not hold anything in her hand, and could only ;;o about with a sliding, jerking motion. Not- withstanding that we were giving her medicine, she seemed to be growing worse, and finally her speech became much affected. We became so much alarmed' about her that finally her father got a supply of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and we began giving her these. In the course of a few weeks she was much better, and before all the pills were gone she was again enjoying per- fect health. This was in 1908, and as she has not had a symptom of the trouble since I feel justified in say- ing the cure is permanent." Be sure youget the genuine pills. which are . sold by all medicine dealers or may be had at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brook- ville, Oat. LEFT FORTUNE IN BUTTONS. Collection Includes Specimens from. ]Pint + Centm's. A great surprise has come to the heirs of a man who died at Ghent, Switzerland. It was found that he had left a fortune in buttons which he had collected all his life. At. first the news caused much laugh- ter, but an examination of the col- lection changed this. The collector had divided his but- tons into series, They dated from the ninth century. The collection was started with a button from the robe of Ohariemange and ended with one taken from the uniform of Napoleon. , There were buttons from all the regiments which had existed in France, from the archers of Charles VII., to the Alpine chasseure. The collection included buttons in wood, glass, bone, ivory, lead, brass, zinc, silver, gold, emeralds,' rubies and diamonds.' The material value of the collection was put at $15,- 000, while its artistic value is worth considerably more. STATESMANSHIP. "Why did you declare that you were anxious to retire to private life ?" "Because," said the statesman, "I thought it was up to me to say something to remind the public that T hadn't done so." • Mlnard's Liniment Cures Dandruff.

"In Mexico there is a plant that feeds a greater number of persons in more different ways than is known perhaps in any other eountry of the world," G. W, Lucas, topo- graphical engineer for the Mexican Transcontinental Railway. "The maguey is a species of gag. tus .which thrives in greatest extent and profusion on the great mesa of the ropublio of Mexico. Tt is perhaps the most remarkable plena, as regards its utilization, of all the more comm n tropical plants on earth. In this country a plant of the same family is known as the Century plant, but of course the variety in Mexicois different, and here apparently the plant is used for ornamental purposes, "This plant throws out tiny sprouts with from five to eight branehes edge -a with small e'spinas or needles,_ which: identify it as of the cactus family. It does not at- tain to its full growth until its fifth year, but it may be made useful two years earlier. In its third year one or all of its branches are tap- ped, making cavities in the sides of the branch in which the sap or juice of the plant collects. "This latter liquid is what is known in Mexico as aqua miel, an efficacious medicine in many dis- orders of the human system, but it must be used as such the first day after it is picked. If allowed to stand fermentation takes place and .the aqua miel changes into what is known as the most eommon of the intoxicating drinks of Mexico— pulque. "When distilled puque is the groat national drink of Mexico and is known as mescal. The mescal distilled in the State of San Luis Potosi is regarded as the best quality and is called tequila. "It is not only in its medicinal and drinking qualities that the maguey plant is useful. It is one of the most important fibra plants in Mexico and is utilized in the weav- ing of baskets and clothing. It is a tough fibre, but as flexible as a linen thread." • TEETHING TIME WORRY. Baby's teething time was once a source of worry toall mothers—it is yet a time of worry to .many, though there are thousands of mo- thers who have learned the secret which banishes this worry. Mothers who worry, who see their little ones suffering from difficult teeth- ing; who are worn out by day and kept awake at night by the cries -f the baby in distress, should follow the example of the thousands and give their little ones Baby's Own Tablets the remedy for worry — the never failing banisher of baby's pains. Concerning them Mrs. Monette, Jr., Rapide de 1'Orignal, Que., says:—"My baby cried day and night and suffered from his teeth. A few doses of Baby's Own Tablets made him healthy and hap- py and his teething easy and pain- less. I would not be without them." The Tablets are sold by medicine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

The chapels are quite elaborate, panel- ed with beautiful woods, lavishly decorated, and overlaid with gold leaf.

Pat being brought before the re- corder for the first time, the fol- lowing conversation ensued: • Recorder—What is you name? Pat—Patriek Casey. Recorder—What is your occupa- tion I ccupa-tion?

Hope for the Chronic Dyspeptic. —Through lack of consideration of 'the body's needs many persons al- low disorders of the digestive ap- paratus to endure until they be- come chronic, filling days and nights with suffering. To these a course of Parmelee's Vegetable Pills is re- commended as a sure and speedy way to regain health. These pills are specially compounded to com- bat dyspepsia and the many ills that follow in its train, and they are successful always. The man who knows he's in the right 'need not argue. Minard's Liniment Relieves Neuralgia. Luck seems to have a mania for dropping in on those who do not expect it. Some persons have periodical ab- -Lecke of Canadian cholera, dysen- tery or diarrhoea, and have to use great precautions to avoid the dis- ease. Change of water, cooking, and green fruit, is sure to bring on the attacks. To such persons we would recommend Dr. J. D. Kel- logg's Dysentery Cordial as being the best medicine in the market for all summer complaints. If a few drops are taken in water when the symptoms are noticed no further trouble will be experienced. " LUXU RI sE Of DR.

RAD BAD SORE FOUR, YEARS Zam-Bull Ras healed It! Mrs. Wilson, 110 Wickson Ave., Toronto, says : "About four years ago a sore spot appeared on the right side of my face. This spot increased in size until it became about half an inch in diameter and very painful. I went to a doctor, but the ointment he gave me did not have any good effect. The sore continued to discharge freely, and was most painful. I had it eau terized, tried poultices and all kinds of salves, but it was no good, and I continued to suffer from is for four years! "A sample of Zam-Buk was one day given to me, and I used it. Al- though the quantity was so small,. it seemed to do me some good, so I purchased a further supply. "Each box did me more and more good, and, to my delight, before I had been using Zam-Buk three weeks, I saw that it was going to heal the sore. In less than a month it was healed! "I know a lady in the east of the, city, whose husband suffered for years with an open sore on his leg. On my recommendation, Zam-Buk was tried in that case. The other day, when I saw her, she told me that it had healed the sore con pletely." Zam-Buk is a sure cure for ec- zema, piles, abscesses, ulcers, scalp sores, ringworm, cuts, burns, scalds, bruises and all skin injuries and diseases. 50c. box, all drug- gists and stores, or post free from Zam-Buk Go., Toronto, for price.
