NOTHINti LIE IT. Dr. Kennedy ’ s Favorite Remedy Makes AnotUer Remarkable Cure. V/ (From the Times Union, Albany, N. T.) Four years ago, Mrs. Markham, who re sides on First street, corner of North Swan, noticed a sensitive spot on her left limb. It was apparently nothing serious, but soon developed into a sore, and before long the limb was a mass of ulcers. Mrs. Markham employed some of our best physicians, but obtained no relief. In fact, was told that nothing could be done for her, so for four years she suffered with these dreadful ulcers, which had eaten their way to the bone. A little less than a year ago, an acquaintance told her about Dr. David Kennedy ’ s Favorite Remedy and that he believed she would find relief in using it. Mrs. Mark ham ’ s four years ’ suffering had made her skeptical, the more &o, as sue had ob tained no relief from any of the physicians who had attended her. The friend offered to send her a bottle of Dr. Kennedy ’ s Favorite Remedy if she would try it. He did so, and there was such a decided improvement that she con eluded to give the remedy a fair test. To day, not quite a year after taking the first dose, the ulcers have disappeared, all that is left to show what she has suffered, is a swelling on the ankle of the left limb, which is fast disappearing. Mrs. Markham is naturally strong in her praises of Dr. David Kennedy ’ s Favorite Remedy, and feels that but for it she would now be a helpless cripple if not a corpse Such a straightforward endorsement needs no comment. Dr. Kennedy ’ s Favorite Remedy cures diseases when taken accord ing to directions, it acts directly upon the kidneys, liver and blood. In case of nervousness, dyspepsia, rheumatism, ulcers, old sores, blood poisoning and Bright ’ s disease, it has made pronounced cures, after all other treatments have failed. (ESTABLISHED 1883.) J.

The Pompadour Roll to Succeed Parted Hair — Elongated Coils and-Curly Chig nons Dressed Low In the Reck Promise to Become Popular. Hairdressing may well be classed among the fine arts, as upon it depends the style of beauty developed. If one may believe all One hears, the newest mode of hairdressing combines all that is piquant in the French, graceful in the Grecian and quaint in the Victorian in a becoming modern blend ! But,- alas ! at this early dawn of fashion ’ s day one may not believe all one hears. The high priest ’ of the mode is apt to play with his votaries as a cat with a mouse. He will start several false 'scents solely for the purpose of misleading those foolish women who are always in haste to be on with the new. Very few fashions that find their way to the shop windows before April are likely to survive the season. While it is quite futile to positively assert that women will, before the dog days, abandon the parting, the Psyche knot and other leading features of the prevailing coiffures, there can be no possible objection to reporting the ru mors afloat concerning radical changes or describing new coiffures already in troduced. The tidings from gay Paris are that parted hair is not to be the fashion much longer, but that the pompadour roll surrounding the face is to he the NEW FRENCH COIL — LATEST PARISIAN STYLE. thing. With the hair brushed back iu this fashion the Psyche knot, which has been with us so long, will have to go. It is also told that new styles will ne cessitate dressing the hair low. The new elongated coil terminating in roll ing curls and the catogan certainly in dicate a tendency to droop in the pres ent mode, and this is further confirmed in the new undulating bandeaux, which are carelessly drawn back, partly cover ing the ear, in somewhat the Madonna style, modified by the soft fringe of curls so universally becoming. These bandeaux are held in place by side combs, defining the contour of the head, otherwise liable to be lost amid the luxuriant mass of wavy curls that form this modern coiffure. The French twist, resembling a true lover ’ s knot, termi nates like ’ the others in a curl, the two bows falling on either side, thus giving the width that is desirable. With the introduction of elaborate coiffures come the false hair accessories in way of adjustable chignons, coils, curls and fronts. The various fronts of naturally curly hair on very light hair lace foundations render the wearer re gardless of damp weather. For ladies, however, whose abundance of hair makes any addition unnecessary there are the new hair wavers to be used in connection with wonderful preparations kept on hand by fashionable hairdress ers and warranted to make the hair re tain as well as easily take the curl. The present day coiffure, with its blending of many styles, ought to afford the new woman as well as the lady a model to her advantage. The several styles are equally becoming when appro- 77f 'ff FASHIONABLES! AIRDRESSING. priately placed, and here is the point where the skill and taste of the hair dresser come in. To women who ar range their own hair it is suggested that before a new fashion is accepted as final its effect on the profile Jie studied. The hair at the back of the neck ought .also to receive attention. An otherwise pleas ing contour is often marred by the un tidy straggling locks which ought either to be curled or carefully pinned up. A coiffure for day wear consists in the front hair simply waved and rolled and finished in the new French coil at the back. The latest Parisian style for even ing occasions has the bandeaux divided in front and partly covering the ears at the sides. Other styles accentuate the tendency toward undulating bandeaux, partly covering the ears, and coils of ponfs and curls falling low on the neck and secured by ornamental combs and hairpins. A lice V arnum . New England Raked Beans. Measure out a quart of white pea beans. Put them to soak overnight in three quarts of cold water. The ortho dox dish to bake them in is an unglazed pipkin of earthenware, with a handle and cover. In the morning drain them and rinse them thoroughly in clear cold water. Then put them back in the pip kin in which they have been soaking, add a tablespoonful of salt, an even ta blespoonful of molasses and a teaspoon ful of mustard. Stir all thoroughly around in theqiot. Put a heaping table- spoonful of butter down in the center of the beans. Cover them with cold water, so that it rises two inches above them. Put them in a hot oven at 8 o ’ clock: in the morning and let them cook steadily till 5 in the afternoon, renewing the water as often as it boils off them. Let them brown down in the pot the last hour, and they will be done at 6 o ’ clock. • TRAINING FOR THE PIANO. Hie Age at Which a Pupil Ought to Be gin — Whehyto Practice. The question is often asked, “ At what age should a pupil begin a musical training for the piano? ’ -’ This question is answered -as follows by an authority in such matters in the columns of The Ladies ’ Home Journal: My answer would be as soon as she can read a little and knows enough of the multiplication table to recite “ four times. ” Indeed a child need hut know that an object may be equally divided into eight parts, thafr she may under stand the relative value of notes, to commence training. The advantages of early training are principally for the physical development. The mental training, although never neglected, should be slow until the mind is well matured. Iu fact, the mental training in music should keep pace with the gen eral scholastic progress. Without either a liking for the study of the piano or failing this the exhibition of a marked talent, it is worse than folly to compel a child to take lessons. It is cruelty to the child, a waste of time and money for the parent. „ 1 The length of time for practice must depend upon the health and the circum stances surrounding the pupil. As much time as possible should be given to daily practice, and two hours at least should be devoted to that purpose. The best time of day is in the morning, as the mind is freer and the body in a re freshed condition. Practice amounts to very little if the body and mind are tired. Persistence in practice under these conditions — through a mistaken sense of duty — is often injurious to health and certainly fails of any music al accomplishment. To those not in delicate health one hour is not too long for a.sitting. In sitting at the piano the stool should be of sufficient height to bring the elbows on a level with the top of the keys, so that the hands may fall naturally into position. The arms should hang from the shoulders in an easy, graceful position and not be hug ged to the sides nor yet be held akimbo. A stiffness of the arms is invariably certain of producing unsatisfactory re sults. Bodice For Evening: Wear. A charming fancy bodice suitable for a young lady is made in a pink or other plain colored satin and covered with white embroidered muslin. Its garni- BODICE FOR A YOUNG LADY, ture consists of rosettes of baby ribbon of color in keeping with the satin bodice and the ribbons drawn through the puffings that frame the square and point ed opening of the bodice. Two large rosettes in satin adorn either side of the belt. Napoleonic Adornments. The popularity of Napoleonic insig nia for bonnet pins is as great as the popularity of the Napoleonic literatura .Not only is the now ever present laurel wreath of the empire used in these mini ature pins, wrought in gold, but circlets of green peridots, rubies and other gems, which merely suggest the wreath, are used as the heads of these pins. The Na poleonic bee, a golden honey bee with outspread wings, is often used for the head of the pin and supersedes the tur tles, tarautulas, snakes and other ugly reptiles and insects. The eagle, with spread wings, considered especially the Napoleonic bird, is another design. Also in keeping with the Napoleonic fad of the hour is the pin of twin Mer cury wings. These little pins are no lon ger used exclusively for the bonnet. They catch together any portion of the bodice, where in other times an ordinary pin would have been used. Sometimes they are coquettishly thrust through a how on the shoulder, with no especial office but to display their beauty. Some times they hold down in proper place some portion of the huge czarina collar. The New York Tribune, which calls ’ at- tention to the foregoing, says: The old fashioned broach is seldom seen today, even in small size, these minature pins taking its place. When the broach is worn, it is rarely placed in front in prim, orthodox fashion, but on one side, some times on the shoulder to catch down a how. Schoolgirls sometimes wear fonr leaf clovers, but the broach of the ma tron must be an artistic affair of jewels, beautiful enough for display if it serves no other use. Soup Eit For a Queen. If you have any ambition in the way of sipping a soup of which Queen Vic toria is said to be especially fond, follow this recipe: Take half a pound of pearl barley and set in a stewpan with 3 pints of veal stock. Simmer very gently for an hour and a half. Remove one- third to another soup pot, rub the rest through a sieve, pour it to the whole barley, add a half pint of cream, season with a little salt, stir till very hot and serve. Lemon Honey For Layer Cake. Into 3 ounces of fresh butter and a cupful of sugar, melted together; stir the beaten yolks of 3 eggs, into which have been mixed the grated peel of a large lemon. Stir over the fire till it be gins to thicken and then add the ‘ juice of the lemon. Continue stirring till as thick as honey, then pour into jelly tumblers and cover. This recipe from Good Housekeeping makes a delectable filling for larger cake. It Is Comfortable For Invalids and Very Restful to Weary Housewives. The common piazza chair with woven rush bottom and back offers an excel lent and inexpensive foundation on which to build 1 an ideal chair for pure comfort. A good one, with broad arms add high back for supporting the head, may be purchased for about $2.50 and is now found in almost every country store. ' Such a chair can be made not . only comfortable to a convalescing in- THE PIAZZA CHAIR IMPROVED UPON. valid, but ornamental as well, by fol lowing these directions from The House hold: Add a head rest covered with bright high colored gingham, with a cushion for the seat and thin down pillow for the back, covered with the same. It may also be made to serve a further purpose by getting a carpenter to make for it a leaf, that can be secured to the chair, and thus form a continuous sur face with the right arm, as shown by the sketch, making a most convenient table for writing, or for hooks and pa pers to rest upon. To do |this the outside edge of the arm must he sawed to a straight edge, and the leaf attached to it by means of hinges. It is secured to a horizontafl po sition by a swinging arm, the s$me as the leaf of a table. It is fastened ’ at one end to the under surface of the arm of the chair and swings out under it. The leaf may be folded down beside the chair when, not in use. For holding newspapers, sewing or books, one of the narrow, flat wicker baskets may he secured to the side of the chair below the seat, or a wooden box of the right shape and size could be screwed to the chair and answer the same purpose. Such a chair is useful not only for invalids, but in the kitch- en. The table leaf on the arm will be found useful when beating eggs, paring apples, shelling peas and a variety of work that one can do as well sitting as standing. Table Decoration. The fashion of having a single pre dominating color at a tea, dinner or luncheon still finds many followers, al though much has been said of the mo notonous effects that have been produced in this way and the extremes to which the fad has often been carried. Perfect ly harmless coloring matter is obtain able for producing delicate shades of ' pink, green, lavender etc:, in such popular desserts as Bavarian cream, jel lies and blancmanges, and it is possible with a little ingenuity to select an en tire menu that will nicely carry out the chosen scheme of coloring, which will also include the table decorations, and, if liked, the dishes and mantel ornaments. But; as The Deliueator very timely re marks, while certain tints are unmistak ably dainty, one may he always sure of a tasteful table if white is selected, as this does not give the impression of “ fussiness, ” which colors are likely to produce. Cleaning: Kid Gloves. Now when so many light gloves are worn it costs a small . fortune to keep them clean. Once or twice wearing will soil them so badly that often they can not be worn again until they have been cleansed. One of the most successful ways of cleaning is to use the following preparation, according to the New York World: One quart of deodorized ben zine, a dram . of sulphuric ether, a dram of chloroform, 2 drams of al cohol and enough lavender water to make it perfumed. Pour about a cupful into a basin and wash the gloves in it. Then lay them oh a table and with a piece of soft flannel wipe them smooth and rub until all the wrinkles disap pear. After this let them hang in the light and sun for 24 hours. Child ’ s Pinafore. Fashion exercises her influence on children ’ s gowns with marked effect. Berthas, yokes, shoulder frills, revers, braces, sashes, etc. , are as much a part of their gowns as though they were grown up. Although children ’ s clothes were never smarter nor more picturesque than THE USEFUL PINAFORL) \ at present, there are numerous simple and practical garments, one of which is the little girl ’ s pinafore. This useful garment, while it is a charming shape , 1 is easy to make. The straight widths of material are gathered - on to a shaped yoke and tiie edges all trimmed with lace.- : : ‘ -7 . • ■ : ' : V .. A' • sill ' M. V. SPRAGUE MUSIC CO.
