RHEUMATISM, LUMBAGO & SCIATICA.

Rheumatism, Lumbago and Sciatica are three of the most common and most painful complaints and practically arise from the same cause and the names only distinguish the location of the disease. If the arms and legs are affected it is called Rheumatism; if in the Loins, Lumbago, and in the hip. Sciatica. The attacks are generally brought on by chills when the body is overheated, or by exposure to damp or cold draughts, which act, not upon the bones or muscles bat upon the Uric Acid in the Blood, which is the cause of the disease. The failure of the Liver and Kidneys to fiber and absorb thie Acid leads to an accumulation in the system, tends to clog the circulation, and harden the tissues forming the blood vessels. Thus every movement of the affected purts causes you intense agony. The pains are affected more or less by cold or heat. A damp day will double you up, or the warmth of the bed will intensify the pain. Rheumatism is generally regarded as one of the most difficult ailments to cure, and invariably medicines are tried simply with the hope of temporary relief. Dr. MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS have been wonderfully successful- A ridden twinge of fain.

not merely affording a cessation of the pain, but by driving the poison out of the blood and restoring the joints to their original suppleness. They get at the cause as no other remedy does. They get at the foundation of the complaint which is the blood and a trial will abundantly prove the wonderful efficacy of this remedy.

THE PARK HIT.

though it cannot be said that this kind of sleeve is either universally popular or even comfortable; unless cut with the highest skill it gives a dragged feeling to the gown. For evening dress sleeves are quite short, and sometimes form two pieces, one for wrapping the other. No words can do justice to the exquisite Irauty of the filmy materials now used For sitting in the park one may choose for evening gowns. They look as though a large hat, or one of medium size with woven by the fairies, and certainly sophisticated trimmings to match in invested in gowns composed of these beauty is never more beautiful than when character the rather fluffy gown usually aerial fabrics. The new shadow lace is chosen for such occasions. On the other hand one may elect to wear a Napoleon, most exquisitely fine, so much so that at a purple or burnt chip lined with aeroa distance of perhaps three yards only phane in a becoming colour and trimmed the pattern of it can be seen, and not with flowers.

Feathers are arranged to stand up very high on some of the new hats, a sartorial mistake, which reduces the apparent height of the wearer and puts her

entirely out of drawing. The Jancer, or weeping feather, is sometimes overcrowded upon the chip or tegal hats, The feather has to be very excellent when worn in the pleureuse style, otherwise it merely looks as if it had been caught in a heavy shower.

PROPOSED CARDEN CITY FOR BOMBAY,

One of the most difficult problems. which the Bombay Improvement Trust have to deal with, is that of providing decent and sanitary dwellings for every class of the population, says a Bombay dispatch. It is proposed that a syndicate of Europeans, limited to not less than 20. and not more than 40 persons, shou'd be formed to take on lease from the Improvement Trust a plot of land situated near Matunga station on the COUNTRY AND BOATING HÁTS.

It is certain that the original wearer, a inember of the poultry yard, if appearing with wings in such dishevelled disorder, would be set upon and finished off by his companions.

MOTOR HEADGEAR.

Some motorists cling to the becoming little bonnet, which closely frames in the face, covers the hair at the back, and forms a firm support for the indispons able veil, One of these is in dust colour- ed satin, with a brim stitched in several Pays to give firmness and yet not impede flexibility It is furnished with ears, that can be turned down or turned back according to the conditions of wind and weather. The brim is lined with a lovely shade of blue, and the veil, grey like the bonnet itself, is stitched all round with a border of blue ribbon matching that on the bonnet. The capotes for motoring are very sensible, and are chiefly made of tegal straw in various colours. A new idea in connec tion with these is to pass the centre of the veil over the top of the crown and fasten it down at either side above the brim with a little bunch. of flowers, These are made of braid in the exact colour of real flowers, and cannot there forn-be destroyed by wind or weather. There is little change in the motor veil, but a very good new model is firmly fastened to the crown of the hat and can bagwurn over the face or otherwise as desired. Some are in ninon, others in dust-proof gauze, and many in a very fine quality of chiffon, often bound round the ends with ribbon to give the necessary hold for manipulating the veil.

AT THE OPERA,

The opera is a splendid place to study haie ornaments, There they are to be sten in every variety, from the diamond tiara to the sequinned atrocity of the **** would-be "** smart. The cap grows and grows, and in its growth proves a great. impediment to those sitting behind it. The hair is dressed very wide and high, and is frequently entirely enclosed with the cap. In front a large outburst of benda and pearls occurs above each ear, and from it fall fringes which prevent the person at the back from catching the smallest glimpse of the stage, as one was able to do when the head ornament was worn entirely at the top. Some of the hair ornaments are less extensive and much more becoming than the cap For instance, a double band of pearls passes across the temples and ends in an orna ment by no means obtrusively placed at one side. Again a half wreath of grey and gold berries made of crepe and worn flat upon the head, affords an instance of

noderation.

On the other hand the brush, which is so unfortunately in favour, may either stand out at right angles with the head,! or prove equally, obnoxious when ar ranged horizontally. There is nothing really, ornamental about the brush, and

In making these estimates the engi neer, Mr. F. Matson, states that he has been very conservative and allowed allows in his estimate for outgoing in a good deal more than the private owner Bombay the usual percentage being about 25 per cent of rent. This, he con- siders too low, as it is based on the assumption that the building owner will disrepair, according to the habit of his keep the building in repair, or rather kind in Bombay. His estimate of out- goings, which works out at 35 per cent. of rent, is a trifle high, and he also allow- il the usual rate for vacancies, which in a scheme like this should be very small indeed owing to the fact that probably the majority will like to purchase their buildings outright on the instalment system in which case vacancies should be pil. For a similar, reason, the Sinking Fund would not be necessary, and in ease these two latter items of outgoings were not needed members of the syndicate would probably obtain 5 per cent. on their capital. He suggests that the syndicate should undertake to be content with 5 per cent and that anything they received in excess of this amount should be returned to tenants in the shape of reduction of rent, or expended in further improvement of buildings."
