on the Pevern river this afternoon by a
length and a half In wbut was declared
the prettiest race ever rowed over :hj
Annapolis two-mile course. Tho midship
men covered tho distance In 10:33 d.
Although at some pilot", notably about
the half way buoy, Columbia crept up
perceptibly, the iiildslilpiion'a lend was
never overcome. The time of Columbia
was 10:38.
The start was a Hying one.' Navy,
mindful of Columbia's fust leud over Har
vurd, took the wuter nt an unusually high
stroke, 43 to the minute. Columbia's
stroke waa 40. The faster stroke pushed
the bow of the midshipmen's craft ahe.tj
In the first minute and then Cuptaln Ing
ram let down to 39, while, Columbia c.uiiu
down to 36.
Three-quarters of a mile from tho fin
ish mark the crows answered calls for a
quicker stroke, but the navy's better stay
ing qualities told.

"We hove had a five days' march across

'In the morning I left the camp In tho

"I sent a Tubbu to ask them to come out

fired and they answered .with a well kept

TRIBUTE TO THE IRON HORSE
ComlnK of tlie F.leetrlo Rnglae Ob

' Reajret.
"The locomotive was to the land what
tho steamboat waa to the river," said a
veteran railroad mannger. Someone had
oi;kcd him If he was not glad to see electric
ity taking the place of steam in the oper
ation of railroads ,
"The business has had to come to It,'' he
said with a sort of lamentation In the con
fession. "So commerce had to give up
steamboat lng and come to the railroad
when steam was the power on land.
"But personally It fills me with regret to
see the locomotive going to the dead yard.
There was always something human to my
mind In the Iron horse.
"It completed the picture i f a landscape.
If a nmn hud been rambling In o wilder

making a whirl with a long train of cars
the pceno waa Inspiriting. It made tho oh

"The long pall of smoke or the white
cloud of steam against the sky added to
Ihe picture. Tho electric engine can never
tnako such a scene.
"Huve you ever stood on tho platform
of a station whin n locomotive thundered
In with Its train that was an hour or two
behind time? It had the animated natuie
of a great horso that hod Just come to
the wire after a hard and close race. It
breathed, ..Ilka a sprinter after a long run.
It trembled In Its Iron harness like a living
crenture.
"The electric motor Comes to a stand
still In an Instant. It looks like something
dcapltnted. anyway.
"Do you remember a picture that waa
painted a long time iigo called 'Illght of
the Fust Mill'? It was copied and brought
down to the level of a chromo and then
It waa reduced to a cut and used as an
advertisement. But It always had motion.
It was a combination of power and speed
and It W'as as graceful as a swallow on
tho wing.
"Forv nniny yeara In Ihe office of hotels

When the system is infected with the germs of disease, it needs every particle of Us
recuperative strength to assist in removing the poisons and impurities which are causing
the trouble. . It should not be dosed with strong mineral mixtures and concoctions, which
further add to the burden by disagreeably affecting the stomach and bowels, impairing the
digestion, or perhaps eating out the delicate tissues of some vital organ. The only safe course
to pursue is to use a remedy of guaranteed vegetable purity, and such a medicine is S. S. S.
For Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Scrofula, Skin Diseases, and all other
troubles caused by impure or poisoned blood, S. S. S. is a perfect remedy. It goes down
into the circulation and removes all poisons, impurities, humors or waste matter, and makes
this life stream pure and health-sustaining. Nothing reaches inherited blood troubles like
S. S. S. It removes every particle of the taint, purifies and strengthens the weak, deteriorated
blood, and establishes the foundation for good health. As a tonic S. S. S. has no equal, and
it will be found especially adapted to weak, anaemic persons. This medicine is not an
experiment but a successfully proven, prompt and gentle acting remedy which was used by
our ancestors, and being made by the same formula now it is still giving satisfactory results
in the cure of blood and skin diseases of every character. Book on the blood and any medical

NEW YORK, April 27. Question any one
of the best known dealers In upholstering
fabrics In New York respecting thla sea
eon's fashions and immediately he begins
with cretonne, Thla Indicates that never,
perhaps, from a housefurutshtng viewpoint,
have the possibilities In cretonne been so
well demonstrated.
Naturally where cretonne is concerned
the country house leads, but It la a mis
take to suppose that rooms upholstered
mainly In cretonno ore confined only to
country houses. On the contrary, soaie of
the finest houses In thla city have suits
hung and furnished in cretonne only.
In turn this means that tho present va
rieties of cretonnes In quality, design and
price have never before bewi equalled. In
the 6o's, when Knickerbockers and New
Euglonders thought a good deal of cre
tonnes, half a doaen patterns or so repre
sented the assortment from which they
had to select, and the goods of domestic
miiko were then pretty poor. Today a
hundred or more varieties of cretonnes of
domestic manufacture, exquisite in design
and colors and retailed as low na SS cents
a yard, are shown side by side with hun
dreds more from Europe which retail from
30 cents to iXbO a yard.
The higher priced Imported cretonnes are
double width. For u.e In the country house,
so far as popularity goes. It is a tie be
tween the Imported und domestic varieties.
In the city houso the Imported are slightly
in the lead.
Unite Drrend the lledroom.
I'sed prlmurlly lor bednoma only cre
tonne now Includes weave which are In
demand for sitting room hangings und fur
niture coverings. Especially liked are those
CO Inrhn." .wide and of Elizabethan design,
a distinguishing murk of which Is a carna
tion about 3i inchea In diameter combined
with a amuller conventional flower and an
Irregular ribbon-like close vine effect on a
plain background, the colors being grouped
to give an almost Japanese effect. laven
der and soft, old yellow; pule yellow and
delft blue; u deep red and raseda green,
are some of thv combinations.
Also for this purpose are the French
linen taffeta cretonnes In'Iouis XV. and
Louis XVI Ueidifr.s; French- shadow tapes
tries alike on both sides, the best of which
are In floral patterns of the Bonis periods,
and othfr foreign Importations covered
with designs In dark rich colors rcprcfcnt
Ing a Jungle of folluge and troplcul birls
through which glimmer a white back
ground. '
But It Is not the quuntles which cost from
Jl! to to $3.60 a yard which are most In de
mand at thla saasjn. The throngs of
women buying cretonnes ask mostly for the
single width grades, which cost front 30 to
GO cents a yard In both the imported end
the domestic wen vis. and Include dark,
light and medium toned patterns, many of
whlch may lie matched In wall papers
For Instance. It Is a 3p-cent a yard cre
tonne width Is used In. upholstering the
bedroom suites displayed at an est ibllsli
ment renowned for thla clasa of itork.
Almoet any housekeeper seeing these bed
room suites for the first time either orders
one or groans because she can't afford to
order one, for they represent the very
lutest novelty In the combining of creMuna
and wood. In them bed, dreaser, chiffon
ier and tablea. aa well aa chairs, sofa und
screen are upltolstered In cretonne.
One Bedroom Wet.
In one set the bedstead haa a tall aquare
heud-bord and a foot-board of regulation
height and la' mude of white enameled

wood. At least all the wood In sight Is
enameled white, which Is not saying much,
for the reason that the head-board, the foot
board and the sldea of the bed are covered
smoothly with cretonne, mounted with a
three-Inch border of wood. To all Intents
and purposes It is a cretonne bedstead,.
Tkere la no, overhead drapery , to. these
beds after the old style. That would de
tract from the novelty of the bed. Besides
canopies are no longer in demand In sum
mer cottages.
The dressing bureau shows even less
wood. It has a square mirror and two
shallow drawers at either side. , The front
la hollowed out so that the user may ap
proach closer to the mirror, which Is not
beveled at this edge, the dealer plntlng
thla out as a new feature. Its only border
Is a rounded atrip of wood, perhaps four
Inches wide, covered with a gathered puff
of cretonne.
Tne sides of the bureau and the front
of the drawers are covered with cretonne
put on plain, nnd below the drawers hang
a pleated valance of cretonne. The top
of the bureau la of plain enameled wood
with, or without, a cover of heavy glass.
Another variety of dresser haa an oval
mirror set In a cretonne franjo topped with
a drapery of cretonne falling ot either side.
A cretonne upholstered oblong stool goes
with each bureau.
In these seta the chiffonier is covered,
with the exception sometimes of the top,
with cretonne. Even the front of tho
drawers Is of cretonne mounted with tho
enameled wood.
The night table at the side of the bed.
the larger table, tho sldo chairs, rocker
and screen are of cretonne mounted In
wood, and the easy chairs nnd couch In
cluded In the set are upholstered in cre
tonne. One of the most stylish of these bedroom
suits is of natural chestnut, which pre
sents a grayish appearance. They may be
hud also in ether kinds of wood.
Tlrtuht Floral Patterns.
The preferred cretonne for upholstering
them In of floral pattern and more or 'less
bright colors. Cretonnes of blue, of mauve,
of pale yellow, aro of rourao In demand,
but not to the extent that the pinks and
reds are.
The white ennmel suit, for example, was
upholstered In a cretonne which sells for
jr cents a yard and la called tho Oriental
roao block pattern, and, aa one woman re
marked, had It cost ten time that price It
could scarcely be more attractive. The
groundwork Is white. Over thla an oblong
block pattern, each block about right by
Seven Inches, Is outlined by a one-Inch wl la
Tine of green leaves not bright green, but
shuding from palest reseda to a broure.
More leaves and one or two roses deco
rate each block, the rosea varying In color
from firecracker red to a crimson so deep
tbut It la almost purplish. This preservea
the pattern from monotonoua uniformity,
the hue of tho flower In one space differing
from that of the flower In the next space,
but all blending In a harmonious whole.
Tho applo pattern shows spheres ranging
In site from one and a half Inches to three
Inchea In old rose 'r ml In many shades of
red, crowding and overlapping one another
among green vines on a white background,
end la one of the few darker pattern
which are really artistic. I'ndulatlng
lengthwise stripes consisting solely of pink
roses and placed seven Inchea apart, the
space between sprinkled with the tiniest of
inos ros.'hads, Is a favorite design, and
another equally popular design baa horl-
,-,nrnl festoons of tilnk roses and green
iejkv!- on pne gray ground.
, In some cases the wulls of the room are j
hung with cretonne to match the furniture,
In others the wall hanglnga are of paper
to match, In St. II othera a plain wall Is
used In connection "With some of the more
brilliant of the furniture cretonnes a very
pule green or buff or old roe or cream, aa
it hnppena beat to harmonize with the color
scheme of the cretonne.

S. 8. S. TESTED BY CHEMIST.
A few years ago I was takan with Inflammator;
Rheumatism, which, though mild at first, became grad
ually so Intense that I was for weeks unable to walk.
Upon the advloe of a friend I deoided to try 8.' 8. 8.
Before allowing me to take it, however, my guardian,
who was a chemist, analyzed the remedy, and pro.
nounced it free of potash, mercury or any other mineral.
I felt so much better after taking two bottles, that I
continued the remedy, and in two months I was oared
completely. The cure was permanent, for I have never
pines had a touch of Rheumatism, though many time
exposed to damp and cold weather.

it and a room containing at most only a
cretonne nprlolstered easy chair or two la
eaBtiy enouijn mnnagea. Among tne new
etyle cretonne are patterns !n tho dimity
variety Intended particularly for roll bol
ster covering and bedspreads, and by using
this an ordinary bedstead is made fash
ionable at once. The designs In tho dimi
ties include small conventional as well aa
floral patterns.
Many buyers wU be puzzled perhapa
until they learn that this season output
of cretonnes represents almost as many
varieties of weave as It does of color and
design, ond thut each variety hue a dif
ferent name. Dimity is not unlike the old
fashioned weave of thai name and In It
perhaps prettier blues are seen . than in
any other variety.
Hungarian cretonne has a rep effect and
is distinguished by many rich dark pat
terns, particularly suitable for screens and
portieres. Art ticking Is another variety
which includes a lot of patterns verging
toward thu oriental In color.

family and shown in both plain and printed
varieties, ia a weave which la used to pro
duce some of the prettiest and at the auia
time least expensive hanging of the se
son. l'lai ii taffeta, usually of a cream or
cream white shade, instead of being per
fectly plain aa the name Indicates presents
a brocaded surface of very tiny tig urea or
dots. For this reason it Is especially suit
able for window draperies, an effective va
riety of which Is made by adding an ap
plique border of roses and vines or any pre
ferred flower cut from a pattern cretonne
and sowed to the plain goods. A clever
woman' could do this herself.
Draperies to Match.
Thus a palr of these window draperies'
which were mude to match a room up
holstered throughout with a cretonne pat
terned with a trellis made of pink rosea
sprinkled with green leaves had an ap
plied 0-inch wide border of pink roses and
green leaves, and here and there ovur tha
curtain waa appllqued a single pink roa.
The result was charming.
In another case a customer with a fond
ness fcr mauve had ordered her bedrooca)
at her country house upholstered in era
tonne showing a white ground well covered
with n desisn of mnuve orchids and tiny
yellow primroses tied with narrow mauve
ribbons.'which followed a continuous wavy
lino all over the cretonne, and to match
this there were window and door portiere)
of plain c.ieti nn.-! or taffeta finished with
un uppllud border of mauve and yellow
flowers. V
rortlens at windows and doors of thj
same cretonne used for the furniture are
asked for oftener, perhaps, than the other)
descrllx-d, but they are not quite ao stylish.
According to one rf the dealers. In moet
of the fashionable country houses the ma
jority of the sleeping rooms are now up
holstered in cretonne, the suites of at at
