We live in a country in which the principal scourge is stomach trouble. It is more wide spread than any other disease, and, very nearly, more dangerous.

One thing that makes it so dangerous is that it is so little understood. If it were better understood, it would be more feared, more easily cured, less universal than it is now. So those who wish to be cured, take Shaker Digestive Cordial, because it goes to the root of the trouble as no other medicine does. The pure, harmless, curative herbs and plants, of which it is composed, are what render it so certain and, at the same time, so gentle a cure. It helps and strengthens the stomach, purines and tones up the system.

The Most Delicate fabrics are Start llngly Combined With Velvet and Plush. The most recent innovation in dress ia the sudden combination of thin and thick fabrics. Delicate and heavy goods are brought together in unusual and beautiful ways. Each receives the other as a foil. A beautiful theater bodice of emerald green velvet was made for a woman whose matinee parties are features of the social life of the winter.

This bodice had a surplice vest of pale pink silk upon, which small yellow flowers were traced with embroidery silk. There were very broad lapels of the silk lined with dark green satin. The throat was a little low, while at each side nestled bunches of pink tulle edged with tiny black ribbon. The belt was black satin. The skirt was of the pink silk to within a foot of the bottom, when large points of green velvet extended toward the waist.

A heavy lining insured a good hang to the skirt. The entire gown could be duplicated in challie at 8 cents per yard and cloth at 20 cents. OTTCUAS SILK BOLERO. One of the New Euphrates Or ecu That Was Recently Made for Mrs. Al merle Paget.

Quite the newest thing for a dressy 6c casino is teh silk bolero, which is for slipping over a decollete waist. Women with economical instincts go through an entire opera season, with two decollete bodices, a black and a white, and three or four elegant bolero jackets. One of these, recently made for Mrs. Almeric Hugh Paget, formerly Whitney, was of Ottoman silk, a material which is now very fashionable. The shade Mrs.

Paget's Jeweled Bolero. was the lightest of green, which this year is called "Euphrates." The bolero is quite long, and is trimmed with that very popular trimming, tiny black cable embroidery. Small designs are traced all over the cloth, and studded with jewels. Around the edge is a trimming of large seed pearls. The bolero is stiffened and lined with Euphrates green taffeta silk.

It is comforting to know that this pretty bolero can be made of white alpaca and embroidered at home and edged with iridescent beads. A KECKI.ET OV ITU It. This Handy Little Wrap Is to be Worn with Warm Tweeds and Cheviot Waists. The autumn wrap runs as strictly to neckwear as though a woman needed no further protection against the weather than a ruff around her neck. Yet, if worn with a good cheviot or a warm tweed, such a neck wrap is sufficient until the very cold days.

For the First Cold Days. There are many imitation furs that can be combined prettily with silk and velvet. These are not strictly "imitation fur," as tney noist no taise colors, their real names, cotton sable, silk seal and mink velvet being applied to them. One of these made of imitation sable had a standing collar and a cape pointed in front and back and shoulder. It was lined with old brown satin.

At the front of the neck two spreading velvet loops of tne same old brown were held in place by large gold buttons, which were connected Dy many little chains and a clasp. TIIK ART Of BOW TYING). A Distinct Branch of Dress Which Is Being Learned by Careful Young Women. The art of bow tying is being taught to young women, who like alwavs to smartly trimmed with correct bows at the neck and belt. Eveu the bow for the hair has a different tie from the bow at.

the slipper; and the waistband has a knot entirely unlike that at the throat To know the difference is one of the arts of bow tying. The next is to be able to tie. An Orange Belt and Tie. A bow of orange velvet of the new shade, capucine, is a valuable adjunct for a somber dress. Upon a light one it becomes positively brilliant, a beautiful decoration for dinner.

For such a bow and its bolt there must be a crush of velvet to go around the waist snugly. This must be crinolined to set like a girdle, and to it must be sewed the bow of velvet. Each separate loop is lined and stiffened, and the ends have sharp pieces of stiffening set in. The whole inbronght underasmall knot. A bow carefully made like this withstands a great deal of hard usage; and if it is lined with taffeta instead of with velvet it is not too bulky a tiling to be worn under a coat.

I NEW CENTURY WOMEN. Che Unique Club Organized by Mrs. Ing ham In Cleveland. One of the outgrowths of the Cleve land centennial is a unique woman's club which has just been organized. Nothing could be broader or more liberal than the lines on which this club is founded.

There is nothing of the exclusive about it. Any woman, irrespec tive of age, occupation, religion or na tionality, may become a member. Civic pride and local patriotism are responsible for the club's birth and the promotion of these qualities is its chief objeot. It is to be called the Woman's New Century Club of Cleveland and the Western Reserve, and its constitution re MRS. MARY B.

INGHAM. cites that it has for its object "the stud; of the city of Cleveland and the surrounding country, ita history, present needs and commercial achievements, wonderful waterways, geology, flora and fauna, as well as the survey of every branch of woman's work, especially that pertaining to the happiness of the home. Interested in the new club are the most prominent women in Cleveland. Mrs. Mary B.

Ingham, who presided at the first meeting, has long been an active figure in all sorts of enterprises managed by women. She was the president of the woman's department at the recent city centennial and has been a leader in organizing the new movement. In religions and philanthropic work Mrs. Ingham has accomplished a vast: amount a work and has gained tha reputation of being a great organizer. In 1874 she was one of the foremost women in the temperance crusade and aided in forming the Woman's National Temperance union, which eventually became the Woman's Christian Tem perance union, 01 which she became the first treasurer.

For nine years she devoted all her energies to work in the slums, until she was forced to desist because of ill health, and today she is one of the earnest supporters of the Salva tion Army. She has also found time to interest herself in educational work and to write many articles for the magazines. She has also produced a book, "Women of Cleveland and Their Work," and at present has another vol ume under way. HE HAS GOOD EYESIGHT. Charles S.

Monnler Can Write a Book 011 a Postal Card. Charles S. Monnier, seoretary of the Detroit wheelmen, is a young man with remarkably good eyesight and an ambitious soul. For years Mr. Monnier has been hunting for a record to smash.

It was useless for him to attempt to demolish any of the bicycle records, because the field was already overcrowded. Finally he heard of a man who lad established a record for writing the most words on a postal card. Here was a chance for Mr. Monnier, and he seized it eagerly. He learned that the champion postal card penman had succeeded in placing 7,068 words on one of Uncle Sam's penny His soul was fired with ambition, and started in to "see the champion's words and "go him a few thousand better.

So he began his task. Choosing the novel "Portia," by the Duohess, he began to copy it on a postal card, using characters go small as not to be distin CHARLES S. MONNIER. guishable to the naked eye. Finding that his eyes would not stand'the strain for more than a few hours at a time, he adopted a systematic plan of work.

For three hours at a sitting he works two or three times a week, writing about 1,000 words at each installment. He uses a very fine steel pen and purplish ink and does not prepare the surface of the card in any way, although he says he could economize space much easier if the post al card were made of calendered paper, At last accounts the postal card was not more than half covered, and yet 8,802 words had been written on it Mr. Monnier feels certain that he will have over 16,000 words on the card when his work is completed, but he is not worrying, for he is already elated at having wrested the championship away from the wretched individual who could only write 7,000 words on a card. This is not Mr. Monnier's first performance in this line, for he has often written whole letters on the back of a postage stamp and once succeeded in placing 763 words on the gummed surface.

mf oi A NOVEL CHARITY. Katbaniel Hawthorne's Daughter Will Work Among: Poor Cancer Sufferers. Mrs. Rose Hawthorne Lathrop, daughter of Nathaniel Hawthorne, has given up the luxury of her comfortable home and ia living in a squalid tenement district of New York's lower east side in order that she may devote all her time and income to alleviating the sufferings of poor cancer victims. Early last spring Mrs.

Lathrop became interested in the poor cancer patients of the city and determined to do something to help them, or at least offer some relief. She fonnd that there were a large number of such sufferers who had been discharged from the hospitals as incurables and who were being neglected by their relatives and friends. First sne tooK a course of nursing at a cancer hospital and learned how the natients should be treated. Then she set out to found a home where the in curables could be near their friends and at the same time receive kind and skillful treatment She received little encouragement and no funds. Then she determined to start a home on a small scale with her own means, ilKS.

ISOSE HAWTHORNE LATHROP. but. even this she found to be impossible, so hhe decided that the only thing left for her to do was to live among the people whom she wished to benefit and pay them daily visits. In pursuance of this plan she rented three rooms in a tenement district and secured the services of a friend who is a trained nurse. Recently the two women began their noble work.

"What I can do will necessarily be but little," she says, "for my funds are limited, and I have found no one to help me. But I hope that when people realize what work there is to be dona and how needed it is some one will bi willing to give me the money to start home." Mrs. Lathrop is the former wife of George Parsons Lathrop, the well known Boston author. She inherited some of her gifted father's literary gen ius and has done some writing herself, but is interested now in nothing but her charitable project. SHE'S A DEEP SEA DIVER.

Mr. Frances N. Sorclio Works Beneath the Waves. Probably the only woman in the world who follows the novel occupation of deep sea diving is Mrs. Frances N.

Sorcho of Baltimore. For several years she has worked at this perilous calling, not taking an occasional dive for pleasure, bat going to the bottom of the ooean day after day for profit. Not one man in 100 is fitted for the work or has the necessarv nervo and muscle to do it, but this demure looking little wom an daily faces dangers which would ap pall any but the stoutest heart. Mrs. Sorcho is the wife of Captain Louis Sorcho, a veteran deep sea diver and an ex captain of the United States life saving service.

She had not been married long before she determined to assist her husband and share the dangers of his occupation with him. She prepared herself by taking a year's course of physical training, and at the end of that time she had devoloped tbe muscles of an athlete. Then she was prepared to put on 27 pound shoes and the rest of a diver's nrmor. weishinf? about ou pounds. Cantain Sorcho was engaged in the business of collecting rare seashells and coral for several northern universities.

FRANCES N. SORCHO. Mrs. Sorcho's first dive was off the southern coast of Florida, not far from Clear Water harbor. She did no work that time, hnfc after a few more dives grew accustomed to the sensations and helped her husband complete his con tract.

Since then she has taken part in almost all his undertakings and has many times done work on her own ac count. Among other unnlasant jobs she has recovered a nnmber of dead bodies One of thee incidents, she says, she will never forgot "It was while we were workiner on a sunken steamboat in the Ohio river." says Mrs. Sorcho.

UNIQUE MEMORIAL TO THE LATE VICE COMMODORE COLT. A Buttdine of Stone Most Elaborately Carved In Designs Representing Various Outdoor Sports Erected at Hartford by Mrs. Elizabeth Colt. Hartford possesses one of the most unique memorial buildings in the coun try. It was recently dedicated and thrown open for inspection.

The structure was erected by Mrs. Elizabeth Hart Jarvis Colt, widow of the inventor of the Colt revolver, to the memory of her deceased 6on, the late Vice Commodore Colt of the New York Yacht club. Work on the memorial was began in 1894 and has been completed under the supervision of ex Senator John R. Hills of Hartford, the design being furnished by Mr. EL T.

Potter of New York. The late Vice Commodore Colt was a man devoted almost exclusively to outdoor sports, and he was especially fond of yachting. All summer long he was to be found on board his yacht, and it was only daring the winter that he returned to his Hartford home. He took an interest also in all kinds of field sports as well. The memorial building is solidly con structed of stone, most elaborately carved in designs representing the various pastimes in which he took pleasure.

The most striking feature in the embodiment of this idea is that the building is studded on all sides with the prows of ships, cut from solid stone. These prows represent those of warships, yachts and sailing vessels of almost ev ery kind. A representation of the yacht Dauntless, which was owned by Mr. Colt, is carved from a huge block of Ohio freestone, forming a part of the balcony on the north side. Many of the other carvings are from designs suggested by Mrs.

Colt, who took great interest and pleasure in COLT MEMORIAL BUILDING. preparing them and giving instructions to the artists. The two main entrances are each supported by imposing columns of Scotch granite. There are four of these, 10 feet in height and 2 feet in diameter, and they support stone lintels which bear the inscriptions, "Erected A. D.

MDCCCXOV." "In Memory of "Caldwell Hart Colt," "By His Moth er. Tne carvings on these capitals are to represent animate and inanimate na ture as seen on land and sea. On the east side are carved shells, the compass, blocks and other shipping tackle on the west the heads of bullocks, buffaloes, deer and lambs, while oak leaves and pine needles are most artistically grouped beneath. Over the main doors is carved the hospitable inscription, "Welcome." At the east main doors are two columns of Quinoy granite, oa the capitals of which are carved representations of agriculture and physical science. The granite col umns of the west door are surmounted with capitals carved with representa tions of literature and the drama.

The antes are also carved to represent land and sea. On the east side of the main entrance are two large windows with Milford granite columns, surmounted by carvings representing spring and summer, the two seasons denoted by budding flowera and flowers in full bloom respectively. The chief feature of the interior is an audience hall in which 400 persons may be seated. The stairway leading from the main entrance to this hall is of cut Portland and Ohio stone. There are eight small lancet windows on a line With the steps, and above these are 24 small windows, all of the same size, with tiny panes of leaded glass Bet into the stonework.

On the platform landing is a balcony carved out of a single solid stone which weighed 20 tons when it was put in position. On the south side of the landing is a win dow looking into the assembly room. This window is flanked on either side by a green spar column. These columns are something unique and are unlike anything of the kind in the country. They are of a most exquisite green color and were secured especially for the memorial.

On the south ide of the hal is the tribune, or raised platform. On tho wall back of it is hung the portrait of the late Mr. Colt which was painted by Eastman Johnson, the celebrated por trait painter. Beside it is a beautiful window of stained glass. The eight corbels supporting the roof are the carved prows ot ships, and on each prow is a shield on which is carved a yaoht signal.

On either side of the tribune is carved a ship under full sail. The floor of the tribune is of marble, raised six inches above the hall floor, the latter being of maple. The four windows of the tribune are filled with marble pan els, on which inscriptions are cut, and there are other carvings designed to perpetuate the memory of the late Mr. Colt. In the basement of the memorial is a gymnasium 36 by 68 feet, in whioh there is a full equipment of athletic apparatus as well as bowling alleys, pool and billiard tables.

There is a clu broom for la dies in tbo east wing and one for gen tlemen in the west wing. This part of the memorial is only a suggestion of the fine gymnasium with which Mr. Colt, if he had lived, would probably have enriched Hartford. C. J.

Bowden. A stomachful of undigested food is about as unhealthy a mass as one can well imagine. What can be done with it There it stays. It won't disest. It churns up, ferments and decays; be comes poisonous (as all putrid matter does), and causes great pain and deep seated disorders.

In order to chance all this take Shaker Digestive Cordial. It stons fermentation and decay at once, so that no more poisons are created. It clears the stomach of poisons aireaay there. It helps to turn the food that re mains into healthful nourishment. It strengthens the stomach for the next meal.

Here is the whole philosophy and cure of indigestion in a few words. And what's more, it's all true. Try it. Shaker Digestive Cordial is for sale by druggists, price 10 cents to $1 00 a bottle. Shakespeare makes more than 300 references to the Bible.
