ADVICE TO WOMEN.
A Message from a Famous Beauty
Specialist to Women Lacking
in Energy and Vitality.

Thousands of women vainly attempt
to improve their compilations and to
remove blackheads, crows feet and
other blemishes, through the use of
cosmetics. This treatment fails be-
cause the trouble lies far deeper than
the skin. They are suffering from i'm
pure and impoverished blood. This
condition is in many cases due to a
catarrhal condition of the whole sys-
tenn which finds its expression in sallow,
muddy complexion, dark -circled eyes,
general weakness of the system, and
perhaps most plainly in the weeping of
mucous membranes that is commonly
called catarrh.
In fact this whole tendency is, prop
erly speaking Catarrh. Danish this
catarrh, and the complexion will clear
as if by magic, eyes will brighten, faces
become rosy and shoulders erect.
Perfect beauty goes only with perfect
health, and perfect health for women
can only be obtained through one GER
tain treatment-tha which will cure
catarrh.
Nine. Swift, New York, the famous
beauty specialist known throughout
the world and an accepted authority
on all relating thereto, states that the
one positive and permanent relief for
catarrh is ReXall Mucu-Tone. Here is
her letter:
81 can strongly endorse the claims
made for Rexall Mucu-Tone as a cure
for systemic catarrh. It's tonic effects
are remarkable. 1t builds up the
strength and restores vitality. If
women who are tired and run down,
lacking in energy and vitality, will use
Rexall Mucu-Tone, they will praise as
l do its strengthening and healing
qualities"
Rexall Mucu-Tone works through the
blood, acting thus upon the mucous
cells-the congestion and Inflammation
of which causes local catarrh. This
causes poison to be expelled
from the system, and the blood is purl-
fled and revitalized. Thus the natural
functions of the mucous cells are res
tored, and the membranes are cleansed
and made strong. We know that
Rexall MucuTone does relieve ca
tarrh. We positively guarantee to re.
fund the money paid us for this rem
edy in every case where the user is dis.
satisfied. 1t is builder of vigorous
health and creator of good complex
ions. Price 80 cents and S1O0 per
bottle. Mail orders filed 1t may be
obtained only at our store-The
Rexall Store. Grant Holden.

What Our Doctor Sees

have a great deal OF chills and mnlarial fever,
and keep us pretty busy day and night. There
crops here anyone would care TO see, yet the
water question is so uncertain that IL keeps the
planters uneasy all the time. The Mississippi
river is rising very rapidly now, and above here
IL has already destroyed over forty thousand
acres OF corn ana acres upon acres OF cotton.
The water now is just so yards from our
my life. I wish some OF you Householders
could could Be here to go fishing With me no Our Dur

our sweet intent and may never know we

content. Let US not wait to scatter smiles
and speak words Of cheer to those friends to
whom II we wait will never need such In
the coming year.
We should have in our hearts no bitter feel

solemn truth the low mounds at our feet
seem to reveal
Our lives are too short for vain regretting

Retrospection

Do YOU LINK of me yet. / wonder.

or The happy days when we fingered,
where the pine trees made their moan'
To the rapidly waning summer,
And the soft, south wind at play;
or. has the memory sweet ana sau'
Faded and past awayG
When YOU stand amid your loved ones,
Far far from this sunny land.
And list to their tender voices,
And feel the clasp Of their hand;
Do YOU ever give rein TO memory,
And let Der backward flow.
To the paths where we often wandered
In the happy long ago?
While YOU look around on the faces
That gather around you now;
Do your thoughts fly back to the by-gone
Where southern breezes blow?
DO you think of voice familiar,
That greeted YOU every day;
Or has the voice and its memory
Faded, and passed away2
Does a Look. n word. a bird note
Recall the days that have flown;
Since you stood where the southern pine trees
Made sweetest. saddest moan
And the sunny gladstone hours,
When we two fingered at eventide
Amid the sweet, wild flowers?
Could you drift once more to the southland,
Ana meet OF yorel
What a thrill Of sweetest rapture
Would rush my sad heart Der.
Would a CLEAN OF the cid time lovelght,
Brighten your sunny eyes,
That always seem to have stolen
The azure hue Of the skiesl
But alas and alas for the old days.
And the changes that have come
Since you and / stood where the pine trees
Gave out their plaintive moan.
But time hath cast its shadow

And the sunlight hath lost its brightness
Since we two drifted apart.
And 80. as the years drop slowly
From tie golden wheel OF time.
Far from the sunny southland,
Far I'm your northern cline,
Do you ever let memory wander
Back 20 that sunny day
All. no. FOR ] farcy the love then given,
Hath faded-and passed away.

Vanity of Woman
WashIngtnn Post.

Why are women vain? Noboy knows-not
even the ladies themselves. Psychologists have
advanced various theories. One says that she
dresses to Please man, another declares that she
adorns her person To arouse the envy Of other
WOMEN and still another that she wear pretty
clothes ont of sheer self admiration. Her slAv-
cry TO the rouge pot. the eyebrow pencil, the
hair dye and store puffs is explained in the
same fashion. The fact remains that II they 10
dress for each other they prove at the same
time immensely attractive to mere man.
Beauty and vanity, however, are matters only
OF location, and the woman with the most thpr-
ouChly up-to-date h!pless hip effect, whose
checks would pale the modest blush OF the ripe
peach, whose scarlet slips are the model or
Cupids bow, and whose dark eyes shine like
limpd pools 70 light, would have the effect
only of repulsing the Mussulman, who, with
his own ideas of feminine puchritude would
turT. with renewed alteration TO his lady OF the
emhnnnoint and the nantaloOns.
