Liver, Stomach, and Bowels, by
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They
do it in just the right way, too
by using Natures own methods.
That's why they're better than the
dreadful, old fashioned pills, with
their gripping and violence.
But they're better in every way.
In size, for instance, and dose.
They're the smallest and the cas-
lest to take; only one little Pellet
is needed for gentle laxative
three for a cathartic. They cleanse
and regulate the system thoroughly
but it's done easily and naturally.
Sick Headache, Bilious Headache,
Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious
Attacks, and all arrangements of
the Liver, Stomach and Bowels are
prevented, relieved, and cured.
They're the cheapest pill you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or your money is re-
turned. You pay only for value
received.
Something else, that pays the
dealer better, may be offered as
"iust as good" Perhaps it is, for
him, but it can't be, for you.

TAU, About Garteru.

Very few women nowadays wear the
regulation old fashioned garter, though
many cling to the elastic" band in yel-
low worn below tho left knea. This is
the emblematical luck bracelet. and is
worn simply because it is regarded as a
mascot and not because of its especial
efficacy in keeping up the stocking.
To mako one feel perfectly taut and
trim DE silk elastic harness thai anchors
at one end to the corset and at the other
to the stocking is the most reliable style
known. Besides In this there is nothing
unhealthy, which is more than can be
said of the band either above OF below
the knee.
Women who possess handsome garter
buckles will of course wear them, even
though they know the shape of the limb
is sure to be distorted by the tightening
process brought to bear upon it-that is,
If they wear them above the knee, and
no one but a real old fogy would wear
them below it, though the single yellow
one might he tolerated just for good luck.
The side straps can be made just as
dainty and can utilize six buckles instead
of two, which ought to be a certain rec
ommendation to the extravagant maiden
of the day. Whether made quite plain,
with only nickel clasps and slides, OF
adorned with bejeweled ornaments that
are useful as we'll as decorative, this
style of holding up the stocking is to
be strongly recommended. owing to its
aesthetic aid in keeping limbs in shape,
as well as for the feeling Of security it
gives the woman who knows that, come
what may, she has the assurance that
her stockings are not bagging at the
knees or in unsightly wrinkles above the
shoe tops, knowledge that, strange as
It may sound, is sort of moral support,
for no woman can even feel respectable
when her stockings are not as free from
wrinkles as ballet dancers tights

the temptation to dishonesty, the
tendency to sacrifice future sta bility
to present emergency, in the fnan-

people we overfurnish our houses,
we overdressed our persons, we

beautiful simplicity that could be

social relations to a tSlsehood, a
desire to impress a public that un-
