"BEARSFOOT" KNOCKS
OUT RHEUMATISM
Davenport Drug Go. Proud
of Preparation.

That Americas is the headquarters
for proprietary medicines which are
sold in this and other countries, is
not generally known. Mr.. D. F.
Davenport, manager of the Davenport
Drug Company, is the possessor OF
two very valuable formulas, the pre-
paratiOns from which have a wide
sale
The one, in which Mr. Davenport
takes especial pride is known as
"Bearsfoot." This preparation is
recommended for a variety of diseases
one of the most important of which
is rheumatism. Bearsfoot goes after
the seat of the disease, which is to
be found in the blood. Hence it is
good for any troubles which are due
to disorders of the blood and acts
in the nature of a tonic.
One recent letter is much valued by
the company, because it is the record
of a Sumter county man, and shows
the esteem in which the preparation
is held in the home of its manufac-
ture. The letter is as follows:
Davenport Drug Co.. Americas

Gentlemen For over a year
have been severely afflicted with
rheumatism, and it was so bad I had
to be lifted into my buggy and often

REPORTERS SAVED
WOMAN'S LIFE

NEW YORK, Feb. 1-(Special)-
Mrs. Gussie B. Seers was arraign-
ed in the West Side Court today on
the charge Of attempting suicide The
night before Mrs. Sears had gone
around to various newspaper offices
in this city inserting notice of her
marriage on Sept. with George B.
Sears.
Then she went home and took two
ounces of laudanum. Had it not been
for the curiosity of various city
editors, who wanted to know why
she was so tardy in announcing her
marriage, she would have died The
reporters got there just in time and
summoned an ambulance, which took
her to the Roosevelt Hospital, where
heroic treatment saved her life.
In court Mrs. Sears denied any
intention of committing suicide, and
said that she had simply taken an
overdose of the drug. She was dis
charged and left court with her hus-
band.

BraidS on Coats

Braids still and will continue to
hold an important place in trimmings.
Braid is less used on skirts than it
was, but on coats and especially on
the breasts of coats the soutache
much used Broader varieties are
used for the bindings or to mix with
the sOutache.
Boleros-how women love them
are still with us. They are made
shorter than those of last year ending
at the top of the belt-line and the
sleeves are short, coming only to the
elbow, are loose and often show a
little lace inside The shoulder seams
are wide and fancy vests or vest
folds are added.
For wash skirts the plain, bell gor-
ed model will be widely used, but
the fit about the hips must be loose
remember the effect of water on
cotton-and it must be full about the
bottom. Some of the new skirts show
panel effects both back and front.

CHIFFON WEIGHT FOR
ALL KINDS GOODS
Two Silks in Evidence as
Spring Fabrics.
Correspondence Times-Recorder)

correspondence Times RecOrder)
NEW YORK, Feb. When STYLES
change, fabrics must adapt themsel-
yes to that change This has happen
ed in both silk ard wooden materials
of late; all goods are turned out in
chiffon weight from broadcloth to
the finest silks. With the draped bod
ices, the plated and founced skirts,
the Empire and princess modifica-
tiOns, there was a need of materials
that would fulfill these purposes;
consequently We have had the "chif-
fOn vogue"
Two silks are in strong evidence
as spring fabrics, neither of which
is new in name, the foulards and
Standings being old materials; but
when you have seem them you will
agree that their qualities are in very
truth new. The chiffon foulards are
especially supple in weave and fine
of texture, are light and graceful in
their folds when made up. Moreover
by the new process of finish foulards
are now 'shOwer-prOOf," that is, a
few drops Of water or an accidental
touch of dampness will not at once
destroy the beauty of it's surface.
The second silk, the Shantung is
| rough in weave and may be had in
medium or heavy grade with a coarse
texture. The first grade is better for
semi-dress costumes, but for a strict
| ly tailored suit or long coat, or for
dress where hard service would rule
the day, then by all means choose
that with the coarse weaving. Some
/ of the softer Standings have a crepe
weave which gives them a graceful
effect when made up. The striped
| Standings also are very attractive
and new, and are especially useful
for trimmings, though they will not
be limited to this use in this day of
the stripe vogue.
Attractive WOOIens
The wooden fabrics are fully as at
| tractive as the silks, and will prob
ably receive first handling for the
early spring tailored costume or the
lightweight semi-dress costume.
Stripes and checks are to be seen in
an infinite variety, and most of the
new suits will be fthe fancy varie-
ties of goods. The spring Worsteds
show stripes of many tones of the
sea shade with a bright thread show
ing here and there either as an out
line TO the stripes or as an over
check. When the material is found
in a solid color, they are relieved by
differences in the weaving, such as
is seen in the herring-bone serges,
or the self-colored checked mohairs,
the satin-striped cheyiots.
Pale pink, amethysts, lemon green,
/ pale green, cerise or violet will be
seen in all their various tones in
evening dresses, and their deeper
hued shades toned down with white
or black Or neutral tint will be used
| in the dressy day-tire gowns. But
tons are decidedly in favor just now,
especially those covered button molds
| over which has been stretched the
| dress material which has been prev
! iously embroidered or braided in
| Soutache.
