This sketch portrays a very dressy blouse of soft white silk. The front and baik are garnished with two bos plaits covered with white lace and bordered with a wee ruching of white tullo. In tho middle of the front between the plaits there is a deep white lace yoke, below which is a full plastron of the silk, headed with many rows of shir- iSjPg IL m SlfjfP PE* hSbS 'a j?® by m r'.'t) Jfpl me w n si wi If 1' 8#l # it A DRESSY B1.6USE. ring forming little frills. The collar' band is headed with a silk frill, and the draped girdle is also of silk. The fall sleeve follows the lines of the arm throughout, the fullness being confined by several rows of shirring extending from the shoulder to the wrist, where a deep lace frill falls on the hand. At the shoulder there is a delightful deco¬ ration formed with narrow silk ruffles arranged from the shoulder down and giving that ever becoming shoulder width. Frenchwomen’s Hair. One hint more from the JVench on the care of the hair, for Frenchwomen have beautiful hair, very glossy and abundant, which, when left to itself, turns gray much later than with us. The secret is that the French take the greatest care of the roots of their hair. They wear their hair, to begin with, much looser than we do. They demelent it, as they call it, every day—that is, separate it about the roots and let the air enter. They brush it, but not too much, as overbrnshing weakens the roots. They never use a fine tooth comb on the scalp— something that is ex¬ tremely injurious to the roots of the hair. In warm weather they wash the scalp with something containing alcohol, whisky or eau de cologne, diluted. This is to counteract perspiration, wbioh rots the hair. Hair containing much oil is benefited by what is called a bain de bareges—that is, a shampooing with a little sulphur in the shampoo. On over dry hair a suitable dressing should be used.—Katharine de Forest in Harper’s Bazar. Hat For a Young- Woman. A fancy bat of chipped straw is shown in the illustration. It is designed for wear by a young woman. Three pretty roses in different shades are disposed over and around the crown. This hat may be made in many different shades of straw, but black is usually most be "HI ?i$L L m r & i t. i % fi chipped straw hat. corn j n g anc ] forms the best background Red roses bnr?”':!; ; ~o ttpI 1 , tei : 4 I -i Si&d N V m 'll' \ v!

Our immense stock of Provisions as well as Dry Goods, Cloth¬ w ing, Hats, Shoes, Notions Furniture, Hardware, &c. In fact, everything that is needed, is sufficient proof that they need not fear.

A very young woman may wear this hat, if she likes, trimmed with yellow or pink roses, though the former are some¬ times a little trying for the complexion. —New York Telegram. Pretty Furbelows. Bias velvet bands, which are stitohed an eighth of an inch from each edge, are much used as dress trimming and are quite pliable and easy to apply in patterns where corners are to be turned, snoh as scrolls, bowknots and walls of Troy. By applying jewels or spangles to these bands one can have at a tri fling expense the effect of some of the latest Paris gowns. Lace insertions are jeweled and spangled and applied in the same way with charming results on gowns as well as on the new spring millinery. — Woman’s Home Compan ion. ▲ Neat White Apron. A pretty girl never looks prettier than when she wears a neat white apron. There is something about it suggestive of home and domesticity, while the apron made for use more than for beanty always comes in for its share of notice. This season aprons have assumed quite a prominent place among the fashions and are found in styles appropriate for all apron wearing occasions. —Detroit News Tribune.
