FINE HOMEMADE SEAT,
This Piece of Furniture Can Be Made
to Answer Double Purpose and
Be Attractive in Appearance.

A very useful and ornamental seat
for the fireplace or coy corner might
be constructed from simple materials
as follows: Obtain any plain square
box of about Pinch sides, a rough
deal one would 90; turn it upside
down, and place casters at each cor

The material chosen for its decora-
ton should correspond with the chair

fnte7ered often with my domestic and
social duties and Inever supposed fhaf
would be cured, as the DOCTORS n1ed-
fcine did not seem to help me any.
Fortunately member of our Order
advised me to try Peruna and gave Il
such high praise that decided to try
It,. Although started in with little
1alth, telt SO much better In week
that felt encouraged.
~ took it faithfully for seven weeks

Peruns, I enjoy that now"
| Pain In the back, or on the right side.
How often q physician hears this
complaint
| over and over we hear women say:
II have pain in the small of my back.
l have pain in my right side, just be-
low the ribs"
These symptoms indicate pelvic or
add Ominal catarrh.
They indicate that the bowels are not
acting properly-that the7liver is out of
order-that the pelvic organs are con-
gested.
, Pelvic catarrh-thati is the name for It.
Peruna cures pelvic catarrh, when
al OF these symptoms disappear.
The catarrh may be all in the ab-
dominal organs, when it would be
properly called abdominal catarrh.
At any rate, it is one of those cases OF
internal catarrh which can be reached
only by = course of treatment with
Peruna.
We have on file thousands of testi
monials similar to the above. It is i'm
possible here to give our readers more
than one or two specimens Of the mum

It's her diamond necklace he's after.
And she won't give it up. Good for her!

that? Surely Mr.. Meicklejohn could not

If the thing is nonsense, as you say,
what's the sense of losing your hair over

A Few Fashion Hints.

The girl with the small income has
numerous opportunities this season of
displaying her ingenuity. The fash
ionable modistes insist on the pointed
bodice, broad shoulders and full
sleeves, but what is a poor girl to do
so difficult if one stops to consider
For instance, the large "puff'' at the
top of the sleeve can always be added,
and Fashion has decreed a combina-
ton of different materials on one
gown. This fact is a boon to the girl
who is brave or Industrious enough
to remodel her own garments.

Dear Sir. and Friends Of Las Vegas:
While out on this southern triI
business and pleasure combined,)
have often thought how very migrate
full we New Mexicans are. ! have al
ways admitted there, and continually
am saying 10 people whom | meet
away from home that Las Vegas is
tho best climate to live In on the globe,
and the ore ! travel, the farther
away I get from there the stronger
that idea Ii brought to bear upon me.
II should just recommend TO some Of
our chronic grumblers that they go
somewhere else for a short time; that
surely would change their wragged'
edged nature that so often behooves
them to condemn our place and its
delightful. pure bracing atmosphere.
| came here TO visit my mother
whom ! had not seen for more than
ten years, and only for the delightful
time I'm having would like to start
back home tonight. where know |
could breathe a full breath OF pure,
light air. And this place. ! I'm thank.
full to say. Is better In that regard than
some places I have been since leaving

Mobile and Montgomery, and in the
fifteen days I've been away only nee
have ! seen the glorious old sun, that
was only for a few hours duration In

I'm beginning to think the so,called
sunny South Is only n joke. hut
perhaps, they have the real article
down here during summer months
when we folks are out In the noun
tains, rolled up In several heavy wool
en- blankets to keep out the cold, and
not a network, to exclude the pesky
mosquitoes.
Just at this particular time and
probably ut most all times people In
the south are continually talking OF a
better climate. and | do think
that II we would broaden out into fair.
