ored band. This good-lookmg model will look we'll on young girl.
 There are also long sweaters, which are an outgrowth of the long-coat fad, being designed to fit snugly under motor coats, or to supply warmth to the knees when worn separately. The front of the model buttons in a straight line from the open neck to the knees. Finely woven stitches result in good, close fit, which is further secured by a knitted waist line about two or three inches in width.
 A smart looking coat for a girl of fourteen seen recently in shop was made in Moyen age style, of navy blue, heavyweight cheviot. The fronts were, cut-in panel effect, which started at the arm hole seams in the front instead of at the shoulders. Below the waistline at sides and back the material was pleated and headed by strapped band, which was buttoned to the panel.

The closing was double breasted, with a rever that could be turned back or over. There was high, turnover collar trimmed with black braid, and deep, turnover cuffs, finished the coat sleeves.
 Just at present the hat without any trimming is popular new thing in Paris. The becomingness of this model is in the line of it's upturned brim, and, of course, only certain type of soft features can wear it gracefully. The upper and lower surfaces of this novel, ty are of different materials. A band of silk or velvet is wound around the crown, and that is all.

SIMPLE PRESCRIPTION TO
BE MINED AT HOME
Tells of Splendid Home Made Mix
turc and Says People Are Taking
less Patent Medicine NOw-Also
Gives Directions to Take.

There are more cases of kidney
trouble here now than ever before,
while recent reports show that more
people succumb each year to some
form of kidney disease than any 9TH
er cause.
When there is sickness, examine the
urine. Rheumatism is only a symp-
tom of kidney trouble, 1t is nothing
more or less than excessive acid in
the blood which the sluggish, mac
tive kidneys have failed to sift out,
leaving it to decompose and settle
about the joints and muscles, causing
intense suffering; frequently result
ing i'm deformity; often reaching the
heart. when death ensues.
Pains across the back, frequent
painful and suppressed urination and
other symptoms of weak bladder are
not the only signs of kidney trouble;
many cases of stomach disease, head
ache, pain in the heart, inactive liver,
etc, are but symptoms; the cause of
which can be traced TO feeble. clog
ged kidneys.
A simple test of the urine is to
void n small quantity in a bottle or
glass and let it stand over night; next
morning. If there is a reddish sub
stance present. either consult some
reputable physician or take a good
vegetable treatment. The following
prescription is recommended highly
in these cases, and the sufferer car
mix il at home; Compound Kargon
one ounce; Fluid Extract Dandelion
one-half ounce; Compound Syrup Sar
saparilla, three ounces. Shake wei
and use in teaspoonful doses after eaci
meal and at bedtime.
Where any of the symptoms emu
merated above are present, good re
suits are sure to- follow immediatel!

PROVED WElL-F0UNDED

"About twelve or fifteen years ago,
while living in West Virginia, had
breaking-out, and it itched and stung so
badly that | could not have any peace
because Of it. / saw three doctors and
they did not agree on what it was, SO
one Of them gave me something that he
called medicine, but | called it soda
water. / might just as well have
washed in rain-water. Then got some
Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and
Cuticura Resolvent and began to get
better right away. They cured me and
have not been bothered with the Itch
ing since, to amount 10 anything.
About two years ago | had la grippe
and pneumonia which left me with a
pain In my side. Treatment ran it into
my leg, which then swelled and began
to break out. 1t got in pretty bad
shape, so l went to a doctor. He was
afraid it would turn TO blood-poison.
/ used his medicine but it did no good.
So sent for another set of the Cuticura

In the local wheat situation. Sucf

Now that California has entered the
market for more supplies the trade
is wondering where the stocks are tc
be secured. A wheat famine through
out the Pacific coast, which may
force millers to bring in supplies
from the east, is not improbable.
sharp advances in both cash and
future deliveries Of wheat are shown
everywhere on the Pacific coast. The

bidding $l02 1-2 for spot club wheat,

pared with all these, the shoshone

for 1t viii cost no more than $400,-
600 at the outside.
But there Is nothing in the whole
civilized world anything to compare
with it in majesty Of setting. The
Snake river Is not Niagara, drain
ing almost one-third of the country,
and carrying an immense volume Of
water as BELTS its geographical posi-
ton. But the Niagara gorge could be
hidden in the Snake river canyon,
and hardly. found, because Of the far
greater depth Of the Idaho water
way The chasm below the Shoshone
Falls, where the bridge springs OUT,
gossamer-like, across the foaming
river, could carry all the waters of
the Mississippi and still leave the
bridge level far above the torrent.

more than 1000 feet, bridging a
chasm nearly 500 feet deep, coming
out from level inconspicuous coun-
try on the other side--coming out as
it were from city flower garden
and finding herd of lions on the
lawn, SO startling is the contrast be-
tween the level farm country on
either side and the grim gorgeous,
gigantic canyon yawning at ones
feet-this makes the Shoshone the
greatest bridge in the world.
There are more expensive bridges.
The four great New York structures
cost each more than s20,0OO,OoO;
the Great Omaha bridge of the I'm
ion Pacific cost life for every week
It was building; the Quebec eantfle-
YER bridge; which collapsed a year
ago, cost 100 lives; the Forth bridge

and not touch it, such is the stupen-

the giant skyscraper building that
have SO excited the wonder OF the
world, there are but two that would
reach the floor Of the bridge from
the bottom Of the riyer--the Metro
politan and the Singer building.
Only one other structure in the
world, the Biffel tower, moDstron-
sity meant only to attract attention,
is ais high Think Of such a gorge
in the midst Of fertile farms, farIned
up to the very brink Of the bridge

The bridge is to be of steel, and
it is proposed to make 1t for both
railroad and wagon traffic. The To-
cation is peculiarly advantageous for
such a structure, there being the
