FASHION FRIPPERIES.
Buttercups are favorite flowers Small caps arc very fashionable Small yellow roses are in demand Putty color is revived for kid gloves No birds are seen on the new bonnets Orange and flame colors are fashionable
Kettledrums are old-fashioned tea parties Visits of ceremony should always be short
The Normandy is the leading spring bonnet * The “ Corisande ” is a beautiful new overskirt
Square box-toed shoes are the most fashionable.
The Princesse is the"favorite dress for little girls. Gray and tan in pale shades are the glove colors of the moment. The new shades of green are sea foam, crystal, cascade, and bronze. Dolmans and scarf mantles are worn, but so are half long French sacques. The new bonnets are small, but are made to look large with the trimmings.
The new black lace mitts are embroidered inside as well as outside the hand.
Very little face trimming is seen on spring bonnets but the variety is endless. Black veils dotted with tillenl chenille and tilleul-colored straws are coming in v.ogue.
Tuscan, Milan, and Leghorn straws of deep yellow tints are the favorites for spring bonnets. Louis XY. slippers with immensely high heels placed further forward than ever, are now seen.
The caprice of the moment with young ladies is wearing long black kid gloves with light evening dresses. It is impossible to make a really fashionable coiffure at present without more or less additional hair unless a lady has a very abundant chevclure.— N.Z. Times.

Holloway's Ointment and Pills are the best, cheapest, and the most popular remedies ; at all seasons, and under all circumstances they may be used with safety and with the certainty of doing good. Eruptions, rashes, and all descriptions of skin diseases, sores, ulcerations, and burns benefited and ultimately cured by t'nese healing, soothing, and purifying medicaments. The Ointment rubbed upon tho abdomen checks all tendency to irritation in the bowels, and averts diarrhoea and other disorders of the intestines generally prevalent during the summer and fruit seasons. Heat lumps, blotches, pimples, inflammations of the skin, muscular pains, neuralgic affections, and enlarged glands can be effectually overcome by using Holloway’s remedies according to tho instructions accompanying every pocket.
