WOMEN AND JEWELS.

Jewels, candy, flowers, man-that is
the order of a woman's preferences
Jewels form a magnet of mighty power
to the average woman. Even that great
est of all jewels, health, is often ruined
in the strenuous efforts to make or save
the money to purchase them. If woman
will risk her health to get a coveted
gem, then let her fortify herself against
the insiduous consequences of coughs,
colds and bronchial affections by the
regular use Of DR.. Boschee's German
Syrup. 1t will promptly arrest consump-
ton in its early stages and heal the
affected lungs and bronchial tubes and
drive the dread disease from the sys-
tenn. 1t is not a cure-all. but it is
certain cure for coughs, colds and all
bronchial troubles. You can get this re-
liable remedy at w. H. King Drug Co.'s
three stores. Get Green's Special AL
manac.

questions were asked said in reply: 1T seems

The immense weight of the tower, which is to

the eight pillars of the four arches and has

In the ten years since the adoption of the first

many times that Helms & La Fargo have grown
weary of counting. Many important details
have been changed from time to time and the
minor changes are numbered by hundreds. Nor
is the period OF development at end. Mr.. La
Fargo says:
THE plans are kept in such condition that
