FISHTAILS FOR THE FAIL.*

The xb-tail train has caught on among those who think that to be well-dressed they must be startling. The cardinal defect of these trains is that they entirely fail to carry out the idea which gave them birth. To give the notion of Esh-tail, the front of the skirt should sweep in towards the feet, and the back, while parrowing down towards the train, should certainly be in one piece with it. The present adaptation of the fish-tail train, however, consists of a narrow skirt, short, to which i added, with anggestion of being nailed on, a single breadth of narrow mato rial. This descends from the waist, dotsches itself at-the level of this knees, lies on the ground! for a few inches, tapers, and stops. It is all sudden and onsible, Nothing softens If outlines

lady of extensive charms, and the foot is thereby underlined. The short skirt, too, is very incongruous, with a train. A train is an exten sion of the skirt, aud no one would think of ortonding a skirt at the back which was long in front, untres she wanted to go to a fancy- dress daños as a farkoy.

TITE STOP SHORT COAT.

Like the eggatur, the fashionable jucket of the tailor suit dans a straight line round the figure half-way between hand and heels, thus Bonsibly diminishing every one's apparent height. The curious thing is that these little bargneless, straight jackets are planned on the lines of a long cost. They bare wide recors, and wrap over amply in some cases; proceeds ns for a long coat until a few Inches low the waist, where suddenly the aborp line of the edge appears. It is not on!- lined in any way by braid or other trimming: but its very sharpness and slanderares are thus enhanced. No doubt we shall proceed to edge the coat with wide braid. If this happens, these who value their heiglit will do well to have a lino of braid down the side arams of the skirt, to carry down the eye, and suphasise the length of the body. Downward lines of braid should. in any case, otan with the maccented coat-edge, so down the sleures, to counteract the offect of shortening; but the skirt shonid not be edged with braid in a continuous line; it should be broken up into groups or motifs.

BAD LIVERS.

Not only is the Liver the largest but one of the most important organs in the human body, and when" deranged it becomes the source of endless suffering. When the Liver is clogged by the inactivity of the kidneys and bowels, it becomes torpid, and fails to filter the bile from the blood, thus producing biliousness and a general impairment of the digestive system. The tongue is coated, the head aches, digestion is imperfect; there is aching of the limbs and back, feelings of fulness, weight and soreness over the stomach and liver; the eye becomes yellow and jaundiced and the complexion muddy, the urine is scanty and highly coloured, and the bowvels irregular, constipation and looseness alternating. There is little use treating the liver separately, as it can never be set right until the kidneys and bowels are made active in removing the waste from the body. It is for this very reason that Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills have always proved so wonderfully successful in curing the most chronic Liver complaint, biliousness and complicated ailments of the kidneys, liver, and bowels. They reach the liver as no other remedy does.

They are a perfect Blood Purifier and

a positive and per manent cure for Haliousness, Indi- gestion, Constipa- tien, Headaches. Sallow Complexion, J Liver and Kidney Troubles, Piles, Pimples, Boils and Blotches, and for Female Ailmicate.
