DR.. Miles, NerVine

Nervous debility and diseases arising
from disorders and arrangements of the
nervous system are much more prevalent
among women to-day than they ever were
before; which is probably quite largely
due to the excessive demands that are
being made upon the energies of the aver
age woman. Headache, neuralgia, rheu-
matism, indigestion, constipation, liver
and kidney troubles, disorders of her spe-
cial organism, impure blood and lack of
proper nutrition, are among the most COM
mon complaints that have their origin i'll
nerve weakness.
The greater part of the suffering and
fortunes endured by weak and nervous
women could be relieved, and they might
be made we'll and strong, full of vital
energy and attractive sweetness, if they
would take the proper remedy. DR.. Miles
Nervine is the exact remedy for that large
class of persons who are nerve weakened

Is it possible to ever grow prosy over the

fashion notes would stoutly deny at least
so long as there is anything new to tell of
Thee useful garments. Many of them are
being made in the form of sailor blouses.
The wide, square collar falling over the
shoulder may be of white embroidery on the
otherwise sober solid blue or red Bingham
shirt, else the body and collar may be of
gins ham and the sailor vest in front will be
of fine needlework. The sailor type of
waist does not preclude the wearing of a
stiff linen collar and one OF the new shoe
string ties, literally no wider than a silk

and the tie made fast TO the collar by very
small pearl-heaoed pins such as the men
affect. Now, 1t is an indsputable fact that
some sensible W women are not going to wear
ties at all with their summer shirt waists,
provided the shirts collar is a high band
with a deep rolling outer flap. Just under

slips gold or silver linked affair, or "A stiff
gold loop made on the exact pattern

that have been recently introduced as "A

just seven-eighths of yard of taffeta TO

the city could not pay because there had
