due. This calls for pound and a half
of sour cherries. one cupful of pearl

water and simmer slowly until the
tapioca is perfectly clear. Stone the
cherries, stir into the boiling tapioca
and sweeten to taste. Take from the
fire, turn into the dish in which it is
to be served and set to cool Serve
cold with cream. This will make enough
for eight persons.

Nature and a woman's work COM

remedy for woman'S ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western

diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years in
the study Of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the

ciolis than any combination Of drugs.

standard remedy for woman's ills
