THE WATCH-GARTER. ...
Not since the Directoire gown took the world by storm has there beon such a the present for starting novelties in drese. The very latest is the watch-garber, shown at one of our West end theatres last week. Will the fashiori become general! Tho garter in question is worn immediately below the right knee, and the gown is so arranged as to leave it and the rest of the limb distinctly visible. This is not so startling as it would have been even a month ago. Slit up skirts have accustomed us to revela tions that would onos have been rogarded as, to say the least of it, highly in discrect, one might even say, indecorous. In fact, some people do say it. Hosiers and shoemakers benefit by the sudden publi- city given to the lower limbs. Smart shoes and stockings are in demand, and are more often bought than in the days when they occupied a modest seclusion. These tradespeople may disapprove, but their exchequer benefits. The jingling of the guinca helps the hurt, decorum forts." "Apology to Tennyson!

OF WATERPROOFS,
September showers, especially after a continued drought, are apt to be in earnest. The rain comes down with a will. es the unwaterproofed wayfarers discover to their cost. The United States have added, it appears, to the great number of their inventions, a waterproof coat of so fight a texture that it can be folded up and carried in an envelope when not in use. The cost of one of these is fivepence, The question is how long would one of thera last in a heavy downpour! It would not ↑be very expensive to buy several, and have one for every shower during a month, say. It is certain that extreme light- ness would be one of its characteristics. Lightness of texture, and not weighing heavily on the exchequer.

In the Royal Academy of this rear was picture of a lady wearing a gown 30 suggestive, of a panther that the canvas soon became known by that name. As so often happens, the suggestion is followed by the reality. The new panther gown is carried out in broché of taway tinte such as dull grey and equally dull brown and dim gold.

"Then in one of our local papers I read details of how a Ceylon resident had been cared of Kidney Disorder by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I was greatly interested, and made up my mind to see if those Pills would alleviate my sufferings also. After taking them for a week I felt that they were deng me good; my appetite was better and the pins were not so frequent in my back. Gradually the tenderness of my spine diminished, 7 got bytter sleep and rest at nights. Within three weeks my back pains had quite vanished.”
"At the present time I am in excellent health, and Kidney trouble bus never worried me since my cure by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. If I had taken these Pills when the first symptoms of backache appeared I should have been saved at least eighteen months' suffering."
For nil ailments due to blood poverty or debilitated nerves, such as Anemia, Debility, Indigestion, Malaria, Rheumatism and women's troubles, Dr. Willianis' pink pilts for pale people are a proved remedy.
