GREEN CORN is MEETING
WITH LITTLE DEMAND
THIS SPRING.

Roasting ears are meeting with very
little demand locally this spring. The
fault. however. is more - the roasting
ears than of the demand
When the first shipments OF green
corn reached the marker, they attracted
considerable attention. for the reason
that the season was beginning unusual
" early But the early season was the
result of the corn being shipped from
a more southerly point t. Florida than
had ever been the case before, and this,
in turn, resulted in the vegetable being
dried up and made almost u.lfit for use
by the time II reached Washington deal
ers Interest. therefore. in the early
corn season. lasted about one day.
Dealers another year viii not be in
clined to try early Florida corn. They
are now waiting for the beginning or
the regular season, and, from all indi-
cations, il will be a good season, when
northern Florida and Carolina roasting
ears begin to be received on the market.

NEW LINEN FROCK
POPULAR AS EVER
Is Made in One Piece and
Makes the Dressing
Easy.

All of the new linen frocks are in one
piece. Designers and dressmalSers have
agreed that this charming style should
remain for the spring. They allow the
fastening in the front as well as in the
back, and thereby make dressing a
comfortable performance
There is a slightly high-wsisted effect
on all OF them which we now think
quite pretty. In no other way could the
straight line over the hips be obtained
The skirts are circular. although often
gOred. the seam is down the front,
which is q. decided convenience in ft-
ting. and there IS a box plait on the
outside at the back.
Many CT these skirts are long, as they
will be worn for formal afternoon al
fairs. Unstiffened linen. dyed in the
new colors, will be a smart fabric tor
dressy summer frocks.
AS fa- as tie skirt goes no great
novelty IS introduced. 1t rs in the
spring, q it was this winter, that the
and the draping- 1t takes all one 5
skill TO do this.
The novelties are brought out in the
bodices. The newest thing Is TO have
heavy filet net dyed to match the linen
uniined and trimmed with ornamental
straps of the skirt material.
These are used in various ways A
vice one is put over each shoulder, Ia.
pering to the waist and Joined, back
and front. with under-arm straps. These
are covered with a bold design in SOU
tache and edged with IL.
Again there is the ever popular wide
band. like a bib. straight around the fig
ure under the arms This is slashed al
intervals OF four inches TO show the net
beneath- There are two bands over the
shoulders that end at the edge of the
wide ones, where they are finished IN
sharp points.
Some Of the besS aodels show a much
simpler arrangement. In which the bands
of linen are only two inches wide and
are run on the plain net at intervals oi
two inches apart. They are put up and
down instead o. around.

VARIOUS EFFECTS

Trip to Mil6nerS Shows the
Great Variety of New
Styles.

is the popular hat-trimming material?''
But take half hour Off and come with
me to the workshop OF ar exclusive
milliner and we win have peep at
some other trimmings and see why rib
hon velvet is not Gll amKe.
Let me show you how exquisitely soft
is this taffeta backed quality. so much
lighter in weight than the satin backed.
and therefore better to use when your
hat has one Of the high crowns reauir-
ing an eight-inch width or a huge TO-

this thinner quality.
This milliner's most called for ribbons
are lustrous satins. soft liberties and
messalines She Is using these last for
the long string ties which she tells us
may or may not prove the success she
hopes for them. although sae conf1des
bon ties.
To carry out some oriental effect she
means to use these Persian ribbonS
with their rich designs and colors
Then for certain exquisite creations she
reserves the moires, the jaSquaris ana
the satin antiques. which are the ex-
treme OF elegance in the ribbon world
Milliners do seem to live in a world
or their own They have an amazing
fondness just now for golden tissue and
metallic ribbons. This piece is very
wide, twelve inches. and woven In
stripes, the gold alternating with the
pagOda blue; the one on the shelf is old
rose in several shades striped with the
hlmy golden gauze
That pongee ribbon in dashy designs
isn't for hats; II is more suitable for
Womens ties. True enough, it is rather
WIDE. but it is so soft in quality that il
IS sold for four-in-hands and intended
TO blow in the summer breezes. Il is
crisp as well as soft. and cOuld be used
as scarf on the panama

DRIVEN FROM
THE BLOOD
A Remedy Which Assists Nature
Produces a Cure Which Is
Permanent as This
Case Proves.

Every sufferer from rheumatism wants
to be cured and to stay cured.
The prospect of the return of the
same old rheumatism every year is not
attractive to anybody who has gone
through one siege. Most treatments
aim simply to keep down" the rheu-
matte poisons in the blood. The tonic
treatment with DR.. Williams Pink Pills
has proved by hundreds of cures that it
builds up the blood to point that
enables it to cast out these poisons
through the regular channels of excre-
ton, the bowels, kidneys and the skin.
When this is done the rheumatism is per-
manently cured and as long as the blood
is kept pure and rich the patient will be
immune from attacks of rheumatism
Mrs. w. II. Amburg is the wife of a
prosperous farmer living on r. F. d.
No. 3, Lancaster, N. H., and about four
miles from that city. She owes her re-
covery from rheumatism to this treat
ment and her statement should interest
every sufferer.

rheumatism, she says, "but l suffered
agonies from it for about two years and
for five months of that time my condi-
ton was very serious. | had severe
pains through my hips, in my limbs and

LIBEL FOR DIVORCE.
ADDIE e. BRIDGE
PERLEY B. BRIDGE

State of Vermont, Washington
County, SIS.
In County Court, September Term,
1909.
Whereas Addie z. Bridge of City
of Barre, in the County of Washing
ton, has this day filed in the office of
the clerk of said court, her libel for
divorce against Perley 3. Bridge of
parts unknown in the State of CAL
ifornia, setting forth in substance
that she was lawfully married to the
said Perley B. Bridge at Wolcott,
County of Lamoille and State of
Vermont on the 18th day C May,
A. d. 1894, that she on her part
had faithfully kept the mar
riage covenant, and performed all
the duties appertaining thereto; but
that the said libellee on his part
had not kept the marriage covenant
but had violated the same; for that
the said libellee during said cover
ture had treated the libellant with
intolerable severity; for three con-
secutive years had wilfully deserted
the libellant; being of sufficient pc
cuniary and physical ability, had,
without cause, grossly, wantonly and
cruelty refused and neglected to pro-
vide suitable maintenance for the Ii
bellant; and praying that, for the
causes aforesaid, the Court would
grant her a divorce from the said
Perley B. Bridge and the custody
of the minor children.
And whereas, it is made to ap-
pear that the said Perley B. Bridge
resides and is without this state
where service of the process of this
court cannot be made upon him
therefore it is ordered that the said
Perley B. Bridge be given notice of
the tendency of said libel, given op-
portunity to make defence therein
and summoned to appear and make
answer IleTeIO DelOT6 lUb f1OHOIdDle

MRS. MacDOWELL'S DIVORCE.
Burlington Woman Gets 500 Ali
mOny From Former Husband.

Rutland, May 22.-Mrs. Irene e.
Mcdowell of Burlington was grant
ed a divorce from DR.. James P. Mac
Dowell of Middletown Springs on
Wednesday in the Rutland county
court and awarded 500 alimony.
The physician originally sued his
wife for divorce, and she in turn
filed a cross-libel both charging in
tolerable severity and other offenc-
es. The cases were tried together
and aroused considerable interest,
as both parties are we'll known and
have been married only few years.
Mrs. Mcdowell was accused Of
using liquor and drugs to excess,
and she made similar charges against
her husband, while admitting them
in his own case and claiming that
she was forced to such practices be-
cause of his treatment OF her.
The alimony which Capt. Edgar
n. Miller of Brandon will have to
pay his wife, Mrs. Jennie p. Miller,
until their divorce case comes to
trial, has been cut from s12 to 6 a
week, as under the previous order
the husband was finding it difficult
to live and keep out OF debt.
