Druggists BEST FOR THE BOWELS PURS AEE TRIMMED. MUST BE EMBELLISHED TO BE REALLY STYLISH. Ua = of Tro Kinds of Fnr In Combina tion Is Quite General Coats and Evening ; Wraps Are Very Ornate Thin Season. New York correspondence : JCn furs arc not going to lie fine enough this winter ; they luust have emi - i liellishment of some \ stylish sortto take ' place in the first rank. Naturally there are not a great many sorts of trim- * i mings that are suit- j able for this use , but the season now beginning will have more than are usu al. The many tricks of combining two kinds of fur are still in force , and are worked a.s persisteutlv and as effectively is ever. But the possibilities in this di rection have boon pretty well developed , so a new touch has beeu demanded and been put forward. It consists of the us * ? in a variety of ways ol fringes and cords on fur. These trimmings may be plac ed inconspicuously as mere edging , or may consist of design work and orna- nents , much like the ornamentation put tributed over them with a lavish hand , hut though the cut usually Is of the loosest est , the scheme of trimming ordinarily is such that clever handling of the seem ingly shapeless garment is necessitated. It will not do to start with a carelessly baggy foundation , just because a deal of trimming is to go on it. In less elaborate coats loose models arc numerous , and the finish shows orig inality. The latter statement is true in such degree that it is difficult , indeed , to secure a simple garment of sufficient in dividuality to appear as of the new stylos. The coats and wraps that are not grand are finely contrived. Some of these are sketched here. In the first pic- lurf is a coat of dark brown broadcloth , its stole and cape effect ornamented with shaped pieces of light tan cioth appli- qued on and finished with brown silk .fringe. In the next illustration is a coat of blue Kihelliue trimmed with tan cloth embroidered with tan cord. And in the concluding picture is a black broadcloth coat faiK-ifully self-banded. Coats of tins last one's general Mrt are often nia.li' individual by ornamentation of the seams. Strapping are various for this purpose. They are left with raw edge i when the material warrants such treat ment. In elaborate coats eam finish takes many fanciful and ornate forms. The sloping shoulder is ( piite as impor tant a matter as ever. Some of last season's models seemed highly exagger ated in tiiis respect , and hinted that the end of this fashion was near. But foi once the exaggeration did not foretell \ shift to some other idea. Instead , wom en have become accustomed to this verj oddity , and have voted it admirable , con- I scqnently the winter fashions include AS SHOULDERS ARE DISGUISED. on dress poods. In the latter manner much of this embellishment is very strik ing. An ermine jacket finished with lack silk cord and ornaments in liberal supply will stand out as new , you may lopouil. What is hastening the replac- nsr ' f rwo-fur combinations is the oppor tunity they ive for making good use of my old furs. This stands for econom- ziii . though making over in furs is cost- 'v business enough , but the out and out -tvINh affair in peltry must be free from ill such suspicion , according to those who -et fashions. In millinery , fur trimmed 'iats ' are many , and the amount of ftlr to the ha * is considerable , but rarely is M e all fur hat seen , as they are deemed suitable only for severe weather. The Mght colored furs have the call for headwear - wear , ermine , mole , chinchilla and squir rel all ranking as stylish. Coats are so elaborately made that the shopper doesn't get much impressed with Mic simpler ones until compelled to con sider them by the prohibitive prices at which the highly wrought garments are much more of it Were there only a few set ways of attaining it , the notion would have become tiresome long ago , but it is secured in so many widely different ways that there's no sameness to it So stylish women go on appearing shoulder- less , and each woman in nearly her own particular way. It is in this great oppor tunity for individuality that the hold of the fancy on women's favor lies. Then the follower of the idea need not accept an advanced form of it , for there are numerous moderate responses to the style. The costumes remaining in to day's illustrations present it variously. In the model at the middle of the second picture it comes in an extension on to the bhoulder of the yoke. This gown was gray mixed suiting and black cord. Be side it is an example of slope gained through a cape , a frequent resort , espe cially in pronounced models. Fuchsia Venetian , black cord and chenille fringe were the materials here. In the next picture is an odd bertha effect , recalling the occasional evening gown that makes MORE NOVEL SHOULDER FINISH. held. Yet these prices seem reasonable enough when the nature of the garments lias fair study , for fine materials , good workmanship and the most ingenious de signing enter into them. Eveniug wraps tire especially ornate. They run much to white and very light shades , and to an abundance of rich trimmings. Passe menteries , embroideries and laces are dis- the wearer look as if she were pushing up through her bodice. This was ii two shades of tan broadcloth , the lightei giving straps and bertha. Next this is i purple voile self-trimmed with circulai folds and enriched with black chantilly. Wide crushed girdles are the fashion able bodice finish. YE SYMPA1HETIO FRIEND.

A case has been recorded in this place recently. which upsets the theory of many phy sici'ans that Brlght's Disease is incur ] able. It is the case of Mr. Lon Man- ley , whom "the doctors told that he could novnr recover. Mr. Manley tells the story of his case and how he was cured in this way : "I hcvan using Dodd's Kidney Pills after the doctors had given me up. For four or live years I had Kidney , Stomach and Liver Troubles ; I was a general wreck . 'id at times 1 would get down with my back so bad that 1 could not turn myself in bed for three or four days at a iiino. "I had several doctors and at last they told me I had Bright' ? Disease , and that I could never get well. I commenced to use Dodd's Kidney Pills and I am now able to do all my work and am all right. I most heartily rec ommend Dodd's Kidney Pills and am very thankful for the cure they work ed in my case. They saved my life after the doctors had given me up. " WHERE CREDIT IS DDE.
