Mr.. Newman certainly had very
tough time with the grip, and it is no
wonder that he thinks that the remedy
that cured him can't be beat. His case
shows how profoundly grip poisons the
system and how obstinately it resists all
ordinary efforts to eradicate it.
Few cases can be worse than Mr.. New
man $ for he had head, heart and stom-
ach troubles combined with great weak
ness. He recently said
1.-THE attack of grip which had eight
years ago left me in very bad fix. l

continually and was filled with kissing

region of my liver and the doctor said
that organ was enlarged. My kidneys

he was asked.
No, l simply wouldn't. My head

Dyspepsia

Post-mortem statistics of the big
New York hospitals show that many
cases of consumption are due to the
uninterrupted progress of dyspepsia.
Especially IS this true in cases
where the victim was prediSposed to
tuberculosis.
Therefore the person who allows
dyspeptlc conditions to progress un-
checked is contributing toward the
development of the most fatal dis
ease known to mankind
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
the brain - makes the victim thin,
haggard and sallow The stomach,
unable to digest food, cannot supply
nourishment. When other diseases
come they enter unresisted.
l.. P. Turner, 269 Howard Street,
Detroit, Mich, says
I have suffered from dyspepsia
and indigestion for several years
and it reached such a stage that l
could hold nothing on my stomach,
and Immediately after eating the
lightest foods, would be taken with
a violent fit of vomiting tried a
great many remedies, but nothing
helped me until l procured box of
Re1all Dyspepsia Tablets, when 1
obtained instant relief l am now

recommend the Rexall Tablets to
anyone suffering as did"
Don't take any chances. Cure
your dyspepsia at once. Rexall

The readers OF this paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure Is the only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a cunstitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation OF the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith 10 its
curative powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send
for list of testimonials.

The Graduation Frock.

"Perhaps the most important point to be en-
phasized in the graduation frock is simplicity"
says the May Delineator in suggestive article,
sand this embraces the material well as the de-
sign by which it is made The present modes are
adapted to thin, soft materials, and these above
all others are best suited to the graduation dress
The new silks. and cotton nets. are beautiful
and their possibilities in shirring, tucking, putting
etc., are almost unlimited White is preferred for
these frocks and the gloves sli-ers and stockings
are more effective if all white, though patent
leather slippers and black silk fine Isle stock
ings may be worn. The daintest of these dresses
are of the lingerie type. made of finest French
muslin handkerchief linen and trimmed with
narrow insertion and edging of Valenciennes lace.
Liberty silk crepe de Chine chiffon and soft fin
ished taffeta or louisine among the ele
CANT fabrics that are used for the commence
ment dress, though for the young girl not out
of her teens the less extensive goods better.
The soft, pliable woollen goods. such as yelling,
eolienne, henrietta, cashmere or crepe cloth are
fashioned into attractive graduation frocks while
one of the newest and smartest materials for this
purpose is white shantung. The surplice waist is
particularly pretty and becoming style for youth
wearers Sleeves in elbow length are perhaps in
highest favor for these dresses"
