Women derive more genuine comfort
from their wrappers than any other
article of dress. There is some diff
Guilty in securing design that will give
comparative ease without being too neg
llge. The accompanying illustration
provides graceful and elegant wrapper
in china blue cashmere, the yoke and
revers braided in black, trimmed with
blue satin ribbon.
The back is close fitting, showing all
the beautiful lines and curves which run
the entire length of the garment, ad-
mitting of no fullness in the center back
but falling in long, graceful folds to the
floor. 1t fits smooth across the hips and
back. retaining the extremely plain eff
feet SO fashionable at present.
The full front is arranged on a shall
low yoke which is prettily braided in
black and outlined with revers back and
front. These revers are finished with
"a frill of blue satin ribbon, surmounted
by narrow braided design. The high
collar is shaped with two points in the
center back.
The close-fitting two-piece sleeve is
correctly shaped with slight fullness at
the shoulder and trimmed with a frill
OF ribbons and narrow braiding A
pretty rosette of blue ribbon with two
long ends decorates the front of the
wrapper.
Henrietta, French flannel and China
silk may be employed for this model,
with velvet yoke or revers. A dainty
garment made in pale blue Liberty satin
with yoke of white lace and white
ribbon trimmings would form a charm
ing addition to bridal outfit.
The wrapper may also be fashioned in
fannelette of cotton goods for morning
wear, Omitting the revers and trimming.
The design is very practical for stout
figures and the patterns are made in the
larger sizes to meet this demand.
To make this wrapper in the medium
size will require six yards of material
A inches wide. The pattern, No. 1926,
is cut in sizes for %, "a, SO, 38, 40, AZ
and 44-inch bust measure.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

By local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inf1ammed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure

the real oneness Of the

demonstrating the real oneness of the
Heavenly Father and the Son and the
Holy Spirit, this writer in short order
shows the utter unscripturalness and
unreasonableness Of the prevalent
theory which makes confusion worse
confounded" the more one seeks to un-
derstand its claim that the Heavenly
Father was his own Son, and our Re-
deemer, who prayed to the Father was
that Father himself, while the Holy
Spirit was either and both the Father
and the Son. While light is shining out
upon all the sciences, many who read
this book, ''The At-one-ment," will sure
ly thank God that it is shining as never
before upon His blessed word-the bible.

Insomnia is a self-inflicted curse
through the violation of Natures laws.
The cause may be over-anxicty, plan
ming for the morrow, thinking and wor-
rying over the yesterdays and todays,
but no opiate can remove the cause,
even though it may bring sleep. If the
cause is merely mental overwork, it may
be quickly removed by relieving the
brain of excess of blood. Physical ex-
ercise is a panacea for about every all
ment which human flesh is heir to.
Therefore, stand erect, and rise slowly
from the heels; descend slowly. Do
this from 40 to so times until you feel
the congestion in the muscles of the leg.
Almost instant relief follows, and sleep
is soon induced. For those who are ad
verse to little work, l would recon-
mend, instead, bowl of very hot milk
without so much as a wafer) imme-
diately before retiring. The hotter the
milk the better for the purpose. This
will prove better sleep-producer than
all the opiates known to medical science.
1t brings about an increased activity of
the blood vessels of the stomach, caus-
ing slight temporary congestion, which
relieves the blood vessels of the ursfn.
The hot milk is also quite streng ngtnening
to the stomach.

Ibid you ever notice the cats about

a gentleman who takes an interest in
zoology. They are invariably az fat
as butter. That is because they get
plenty OF shell-fish to eat, and. by the
way. tho fondness OF cats Cor that kind
OF diet Is a mystery which I'd like to
hear some evolutionlst explain. A cat

all the same whether IT'S city cat OF
a hayseed cat that never saw water
except In n cistern. It's taste born
in them, like their fear Of dogs. and
the question Ia. How the mischief did
they acquire It?
According to tho evolution theory,
such traits are inherited and traceable
to conditions away back toward the
beginning OF things. That would seem
to indicate that the primal cat was a
fisher; but how is one to reconcile the
idea TO tho instructive adherence OF
the tribe for water7 Their craving for

that there must be an excellent reason
behind II. and, altogether, II is quite

This was the paragraph which had

this was evidently a little paragraph
