York, Jan. 11 Blue New many shades is a favorite suits, gowns and hats. and its color for tasnimcus Raleigh eivs and Observer. In full accord with Gov. Glenn in his proposed settlement of the railroad rate question is ex-Governor C. B. Aycock, who reache d the city last night from Goldsboro to look'al'ter some legal matters here. Interviewed by a reporter of this pa per at the Yarborough House last night ex-Governor Aycock declared w ith em phasis that he considers the terms of the proposed settlement as fair and just to the State, the public and the rail roads, and that if the railroads, during the session of 1807, had indicated their willingness to do what they are now doing, that the matter woul i have been finally settled," there. As to other mat ters except the rate question being acted upon at the special session, his view is that there will hardly be any thing done except such general and special legislation as meets with prac tically unanimous support, and that the special session will end within a week . ' s Here is what ex-Governor Aycock tsaid : "T thiiik that the settlement secured by Governor Glenn with the railroads C, Jan. 10, Ac- tuetieetot Amer ican battleships under Rear Admiral 12 vans will reach Rio Janeiro today-or tomorrow, thus completing the second lap in the long trip to the Pacific coast. Recent dispatches from the Brazilian metropolis have told of the elaborate preparations being made there for the entertainment of the American officers and bluejackets. Rio Janeiro is by far the largest and most important city that will be visi ted by the fleet on its long trip. It now has a population ot nearly a mil lion, and ranks as the fifth city ot the Western hemisphere. The fleet will east anchor in a harbor that has been pronounced by experienced "travellers to be the largest and most beautiful in the world. During the past few years the Brazilian government has expend ed millions of dollars in the construc tion of docks, basins, piers and other harbor improvements that are capable of accomodating the steamships and sailing craft of the world. Rio Janeiro is now in the fall tropi cal glory of summer time. The city is situated just about as far south of the equatorial line as Havanah. is north of it. Between 75 and 85 "degrees F. is the average summer weather. It is seldom so high as the latter figure, however, more than three days in sue cession, followed by sultry nights, and then comes a heavy rain which contin- is one which will prove entirely satis- ues twenty-lour hours or more, leav- factory to the State, and I trust as i ing the air fresh and pleasant for well to the railroads. There can be no doubt but that the Legislature would have passed such an act in the first instance if the railroads had in dicated their willingness to put it into effect. "The settlement is certainly a fair one and secures harmony between the State and her largest property interest without injustice to the public. As long as the railroads maintained a po sition of disobedience to the law it was impossible for the State to do otherwise than assert writh a strong hand her au thority, but the moment the railroads put. into effect the rates provided in the act, the State could well afford to listen to any reasonable offer of adjustment which would safeguard the intereit of the public and do justice to the railroads. . "I regard the settlement as one of those occasional happenings which re sult in positive benefit to both parties. The adjustment is so reasonable that I am satisfied that the Legislature will enact it into law promptly and will ad journ within a week of its assembling, Of course, it would be competent for it o enter into other and further legisla tion, but it is hardly likely to do so except to pass such general and special legislation as may meet with practi cally unanimous support." lit Quiets the Cough This is one reason why Ayers Cherry Pectoral is so valua- ble in consumption.

The dispatches from Rio Janeiro state that forty rooms in the best hotel at Petropolis have been reserved for the use of the American visitors. Pe tropolis is the fashionable residential suburb of Rio Janeiro. It is located about thirty miles distant from the capital and three thousand feet higher, easily acessible by rail. In a recent article, John Barrett, one of the best interned men in the United States on all that relates to South America, paid the following tribute toiPetropolis Here the diplomatic corps have their homes and offices, and enjoy life as if they were spending the summer at Newport or Lenox. Its capacious palaces, handsome residences, public buildings, pretty gardens, pleasing drives, restlul paths, and silvery streams, all gracefully and contented ly situated amid exquisitely verdured hills and mountains, make It a spot al ways to be happily remembered by those who have lived there or visited its unique locality and environment. The crowning feature of the official entertainment programme is to be a dinner given by President Penna in honor of the American admirals. Dr. AfFonso Agusto Moreira Penna has been President of Brazil something more than a year. He is described as a dignified, scholarly little man of simple manners. His chief character istics are said to be modesty and a love for hard work. He has had a thor ough and extensive classical education, being a graduate of the famous college at Caraca. He is a lawyer by profess ion, but has spent much of his life in the public service. Under the Empire he held at various times the portfolios of war, agriculture and State. It was while he wasiMinister of State that the law was passed which gave freedom to all slaves over sixty years of age. Col.

Hill & Williams, Attorneys - at - Law. ROOM 3 HEADLIGHT BUILDING. Elaborate trimmings for evening gowns are metal tubes oi goia, silver or steel ana colored glass beaded. The new striped broadcloths make some very smart tailored costumes and are at present the height ot style. Hats, are growing smaller, many of the latest ones being toques or tur bans trimmed with high-standiug plumes and velvet. The cutaway coat is a great favorite this season, which is a decidedly smart and attractive fashion. All shoulder lines are dropping, the manlarin armhole and kiuiono sleeves being the noticable feature on most gowns. Much braiding is seen on gowns and elegant suits of broadcloth. 33mbroid ery with touches of gold and silver does not lack popularity. Voiles continue to be worn this winter and the new weaves are almost as fine as chiffon cloth. Chiffon voile of a very fine sheer quality makes a handsome gown. G rsy is used to give a note of color to a costume. It very effectively can ! tone down a bright shade ot rose blue or green. A pinkish shade of gray combined with pale blue is charming. One of the new materials is "Crepe Ondine" which has the texture of crepe de chine with a pebble finish. "Marquisette Brilliante" has a lus trous finish much prettier than the or dinary I marquisette. Amng the beautiful lace waists are those of ecru, cream and ivory tints and deeper tones of ehampaigne and apricot. These are a bit dressierhan the white lace ones and are often more becoming. Fur coats of Russian pony made hip length or three quarter are very much worn by young women especially. Th ey are finished with a shawl collar of the same fur or of sable or lynx. Skirts are made with long soft cling ing effects shaped to the figure above the hip-line and hanging in graceful lines to the feet. Dainty hand bags in white kid for theatre and evening wear are lovely when decorated with graceful trails of flowers reproduced with tiny shaded ribbons closely gatered to form relief. A touch of black wrorn at the throat of an evening gown i a pretty fad. Diamond ornaments are worn with a band of blaek velvet or satin; a tiny satin bow at the base of the collar-is another way of showing the color. A stunning mink jacket made tight fitting and cutaway had a short waist coat of biscuit-colored cloth elaborate ly embroidered in browns and dull yellows. The neck was outlined with a flat band ot this cloth and the sleeves were similarly finished. Velvet eostumes are fashionable for afternoon street wear. Plain dark blues, greens and browns are the col ors seen most frequently. The striped and blocked velvet in two contrasting shades of one color make extremely smart suits. The favorite material for wedding gowns this winter is supple white sat in, and for bridesmaids' frocks, chif fon cloth in pastel colors. " A frock in pale pink was trimmed with gold em broidered with net, with a Vandyk yoke of gold embroidery. A cloth band of gold finished the hem of the skirt. . There are lovely hats of fur made in various shapes and trimmed in a great many "ways. Some have wide brims turning up on one side and the top covered : with mink fur. On such a one, the only trimming necessary would be a big pink rose. Mushroom shspes and toques are popular and on these are seen plumes which fall grace fully at one side or high-standing feaathers or big velvet bows. ?. : FLORENCE FAIRBANKS.

FEARFUL ITCHING AFFLICTS FAMILY For Six Months They Suffered Tor feres Patches of Humor Became Raw Could Hardly Sleep Med ical Treatment Did No Good but TWO SETS OF CUTSCURA CURED THEM IN TEN DAYS "Last February my sister broke out with a humor which gradually spread to the rest of the family, I being the last to take it. It manifested itself in patches varying from the size of a pea to that of a silver dollar. The joints of our limbs were mew; affected. The parts where the skin was tender soon became raw and irritated and we were able to sleep but little because the itch ing got so bad at night. My sister con sulted a physician but he was unable to name the disease and the treatment ha prescribed did no good at all. As the warm weather came on we were tor tured worse than ever, the irritated pares causing us to ccratch until Chey would bleed. In August, when it was at its worst, my sister was given a cake of Cuticura Soap. This she tried and it afforded so much relief that I bought the complete treatment, con sisting of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint ment, and Cuticura Pills. This we used according to directions and imme diately the humor began to disappear. I then bought another set and the whole family were cured by these two, the blotches disappearing in ten days. Af ter this we used the Cuticura Pills for ten days more to be sure that the humor had gone to stay. We have not been troubled since and we all think that if it had not been for the Cuticura Reme dies we would have been suffering yet. George W. Brown, 18 Linden St., Rock land, Mass., Jan. 28, 1907."
