cling to us with tcnacity which no

The Women who Attract Attention

The Women Who Attract Attention.
The elbows are now worn quite be-
hind the waist. So runs the latest
fashion mandate, which isn't as absurd
as it sounds, says the Sun, for so uni
versally recognized is the fact that a
fine carriage is one of the essentials
of prepossessing appearance that the
smart woman carries her head high
her chest we'll thrown out and her ell
bows necessarily fall well back out of
the way.
This is particularly true Of city
women, who Srealize that the woman
who makes the best effect is always
the woman who carries herself well.
On closer acquaintance the pretty face
begins to tell, and somewhere between
the two the dress comes in for share
of attention as to details with men.
And it is to please men that women
dress, except few spiteful women
who dress to aggravate other women.

Sage's Catarrh Remedy. They say
that their medicine will csre, per-

case Of Chronic Catarrh in the
Head-that not only Catarrh itself,
but all the troubles that come from
it, and every thing catarrhal in its
nature, are cured by the mild, sooth-
ing, cleansing and healing properties
of their remedy.
They can't say any more. Prob
ably every medicine for Catarrh
claims as much. But it's one thing
to promise cure-it's a very differ
ent thing to perform it. The propri-
etors of DIR. Sago's Remedy want. to
prove that they mean what they say.
So they make this offer: If they
can't cure your Catarrh, no matter
how bad your case or of how long
standing, they'll pay you $500 IN
cash. You're sure Of the money or
