A Mother's Mistake.
Mothers frequently make a mistake in
neglecting the Cough of a child. A Fort
Wayne, Ind., lady writes: lly little
daughter G years old had a severe Cough
but as it.was nothing unusual I thought
nothing of it, and allowed it to run ou for
i or 5 weeks, when it became so obstinate
she began losing flesh. I called in a
physician who treated her three weeks
without benefit. A neighbor insisted up
on my trying Ballard's Ilorehound Syrup;
it relieved her from the first dose and she
began gaining flesh rapidly, when wo had
used two bottles her Cough had entirely
disappeared. I would not be without it".
It does not constipate my children. Bal

sign. Eight years ago, having received
a thorough training in art, design and
modeling, she rented some rooms in her
native city of Manchester and stocked
them with artistio furniture.
There ensued many days of trial and
discouragement, when no sales were
made, when stock accumulated and be
came "out of date" on her hands and
when crafty dealers turned her inexpe
rience to their own advantage, and when
the intrepid and as yet not hopeless
young dealer was everywhere greeted by
her pessimistic friends with that most ex
asperating formula, "I told you so." Fi
nally a few orders came in and were'fiUed
with such originality and boldness of de
sign, artistio workmanship and thorough
ness in execution that gradually they
multiplied, and many who had scoffed at
this new and "unfeminino departure"
came to entreat Miss Robinson's advice
and assistance in tho decoration of their
homes.
With the Manchester exhibition came
Miss Robinson's chance. Her stand of
fnrnituro and fittings, many of which
were altogether novel and had been made
from her own graceful designs, proved
ono of the most attractive in the build
ing and drew tho attention of royalty,
with tho result that the appointment of
"decorater to the queen" was conferred
upon her. Miss Robinson's success was
now assured.
Miss Robinson does not confine herself
merely to furnish the abodes of tho newly
married or replacing tho commonplace
with tho artistio in English homes. Sho
If a woman may without impropriety
walk the crowded streets and enter a
crowded store for shopping, then may
she equally without impropriety walk
the street and enter the polling place to
cast her ballot. If a woman may go
into the postoffico to mail a letter or to
transact any business, then may she go
to the ballot stand. That woman sur-
frago will come is now only a question of
time. It is a matter of progress, of true
development. It is also a question of the
new ideals of womanhood those revised
ideals of the last decade of the nine
teenth century. Tho silly and helpless
type of woman has entirely gone out of
fashion. Tho standard of feminine at
tractiveness now comprehends health,
mental vigor, clear understanding and
the stroncr. helpful attitude toward life.
It is positive, not negative. Tho dem

All tho descriptions of tho Princess

And I have noticed that whenever such a

betrothed royal princess it always de
notes that sho is not fair to look upon.
It takes a very small amount of good
looks to cause a royal damsel to bo hail

proaching nuptials nor tho freshness of
her 23 years nor yet the inclination all
reporters feel to write tho adjective

It is amusing to hear the comments on
tho new styles. Soon the crinoline wom

mean the hoopskirt, which was no go,
but that sleeves, skirt and ruffles are all
crinolino lined, which is the accepted
compromise. Her skirts flare so' greatly
her waist loots small in comparison
even when of good size. Her shoulders
are broad, and her arms are concealed by
pnffs that stand out with crinoline lin
ings. If to crinolino lined shoulder rev
ers are added, the sight is grotesque in
the extreme in spite of tho declaration
of a few that it is the most artistic make

features aro novelties now and are re

A Result of the Dress Reform Movement.
If the dress reformers have not suc-
:eeded in accomplishing all they hoped,
they have at least done ns one good turn.
It is now quito a raro thing to find a
trousseau which does not include a wet
weather costume. Sometimes this is a
real league skirt, sometimes it is a dress
of the bride's own invention; but, how
ever that may bo, ono of tho items is al
ways a light, warm woolen skirt threo
or four inches from tho
garment as would bo
walking along a dirty country road or
trudging through tho mud on a wet day.
A bride of last week had a dress of
this sort which was specially tasteful as
well as sensible. It was a skirt barely
reaching down to tho ankles, a pair of
knickerbockers and a coat made of tweed,
the coat being lined with pink silk in
side, but as it would if necessary button
tightly across tho delicate lining need
not bo soiled by tho ram.
The stylo of bodice to bo worn would
depend entirely upon tho weather. If
cool, it would match the skirt; if warm,
a blouso could be substituted instead.
This is assuredly a move in tho right
direction, and it shows that women can
when needed mako up their minds to bo
sensibly as well as charmingly attired.

- A Victorian Gown.
In the reception room of an up towa
modiste stands a fresh Parisian model of
a gown for visiting, receptions, etc. It
would bo found very expensive if one
really desired to buy it, and it is most as
tonishing merely to gaze at. It looks as
if some ono had resurrected and reju
venated some of the material of Joseph's
coat or had entrapped a number of rain
bows and sewed them together, all the
colors snaamg or meitmg ono into an
other, the only divergence in resemblance
to the genuino bow lying in tho brown
flecks scattered all over the elegant tex
tured brocado. Tho gown is by no
means attractive in tho happiest senso
of the word, though worn anywhere it
would certainly command special notice.
It is made in Victorian stylo and is an

some of which have already been added.

Kot Big Thlags Only Excite Wonder.
It is not always the things of gigantic
proportions that excite the 'greatest
curiosity. Mastodons, elephants, whales
and other creatures of monstrous size
are and have been wonders indeed. So,
too, are the pyramids, the great cathe
drals, towers, monuments, etc., the
great Corliss engines, the 16-drive wheel
locomotive and other triumphs of me
chanical skill. But while this is true
beyond question, how about the wonders
revealed by the microscope and the
work of the deft fingered artist, D. A.
Yr. Meer, who painted a landscape on
the side of a grain of wheat? By the
use of a strong microscope only could
the wonders of this minute painting be
distinguished.
Yet when a good glass was brought to
bear upon what appeared to be a spot of
variegated paint upon the side of the
wheat grain all was changed into a
beautiful landscape a forest, a mill at
the side of the river, a miller climbing
an outside stairway with a sack of grain
upon his back, a tall cliff at the side of
tho mill and a winding road along which
some peasants were trying to drag a re
fractory pig! St. Louis Republic.
