This ribbon begins on the left of the bodice, and, catching the skirt, sharply falls to the ground to add to the vivid yet restrained eulont impression. A scarf of cyclamen velvet, voiled with peach chiffon, and a turban hat of black talle completes this unusual but attractive toilette.

The ultra notes of present fashions are seen at the Prince of Wales' Thestre, whero Miss Muric Tapsel wears them with her usual distinction. In he striped velvet gown the skirt is slightly draped at one side, and the coat with short basques of bright blue velvet brocade has a skunk collar and cnfis matching the skunk that edges the skirt.

How to
SORE Avoid THROAT
This is one of the worst mouths in the year as regards the risk of catching Sore Throat.
This painful malady is caused by germs-invisible atoms of plant life which we inhale from the air.
:
The warmth and moisture of the mouth cavity, with its wrinkled surfaces containing residues of food, form ideal cou- ditions for the growth of these germs, which inflame and irritate the lining of the throat.
A few Formiamint Tablets, sucked like sweets, entirely rid the mouth cavity of germ growths, and thus cure Sore Throat in the shortest possible time.
WULFING'S
THE GERM-KILLING THROAT TABLET
Signor Cario, the world-famous tenor, writes:-I have found Wuling's Formarmint Tablets very beneficial to the throat, and pleasant to the teste."
Although Formamirit Tablets are pleasantly flavoured and quite haridless, they contain a powerful autiseptic which goes thoroughly of Over the lining the mouth and threat, and is absolutely fatal to germ life. Therefore, ther not only cure and prevent Sore Throat,
