When the Blood
r
Goes Wrong
Man Suffers In Maay Places Like
City Whose Sewers Spread
Disease

When the blood of man becomes i'm
pure and filed with poison and decay,
it throws off the impurities and leaves
them to force and tester themselves
through the skin. just like a city In
whose sewers foul gases arise and es-
cape up through cellars into houses
bringing contagion and death.
What a city needs is a generous flow
of pure water to carry along and away
the sewage which breeds death and
disease. What the system needs for
the blood that is impure is purifier
that will stimulate the flow of the pre-
cious fluid that will check the impuri-
ties and remove them by the flow of
the blood from the system naturally
without irritation, infection and pain.
Calcium Sulphide IS the strongest
blood purifier known to science and
medicine. What pure, running water
does to the impurities in a city's sewer
Calcium Sulphide does for the blood
of man.
Stuart's Calcium Waters give the
human body all the strength and vigor
of Calcium Sulphide, in better form
than any other mode of presenting it
to the system. A recent article has
state that most Calcium Sulphide
preparations contain but 80 per cent or
the strength of this wonderful cleanser,
the other 20 per cent being lost by
evaporatin, chemical change or decay.
Stuart's Calcium Waters contain 9TH
er blood purifiers like Quassia, Golden
Seal and Eucalyptus, each having a
distinct function to perform; also an
alternative and laxative to throw off
through the human sewerage system
the bowels the waste and poisonous
matter extricated by the blood puri-
fiers.
These little waters are tremendous
wer and act with amazing rapidity
in their work of cleansing the blood,
and clearing the skin. Every druggist
carries them in stock. Price soc per
box, or send us your name and adj
dress and we will send you a trial
package by mail free. Address f. A.

there is no rock of the same nature

Which is called embossed velvet rib

1t is unreasonable to suppose, how
ever, that the latter fashion will be
entirely out at any near date, so those
women who found the style suited them
need feel no hesitation in having their
summer waists made with short OF
three quarter sleeves.

and for those evening occasions when
they need hat and yet do not care
TO obstruct the view of the unfortu-
mates in the rear seats. The turbans
are sometimes only trimmed with long
chains of artificial pearls and tur-
round the head.
The theatre season is almost over.
but there are many Easter festivities
and evening commencement exercises,
and these new turbans will be useful.
for they 'obviate the necessity of re-
moving the hat. In any case. 1t is
most becoming fashion. and one that
