GRACEFUL EMPIRE GOWNS.

NEW YORK - The high-waisted
skirt and small draped bodice is as
Fashionable now as ii was at the be-
ginning of the season. These little
Josephine gowns. as they are called
are bewitchingly youthful and be-
coming to most women, and feminity
is 10th to part with them.
Cape effects make some of the
sumptuous evening wraps very
graceful The collar. named after
Charlotte CCrday, hangs low at the
back. but at the front is slashed
off close to the throat. This Cor
day collar is much exaggerated, but
is very smart and graceful. The coat
is made of pure white marquisette,
white soutache braiding on collar and
skirt weighing the material and
producing graceful lines. Appliques
of black velvet in conventionaliZed
pattern are couched to the marquis
cite with white cord.-OregOnian.

IN BED
 AND OUT
After Taking Cardui, the Woman's Tonic, Mrs. Mills of UvaIde Says She Feels Like a
 New Person.

Uvalde, Tex.-"I was in bed and out, writes Mrs. Thos. G. Mills of this town, "and could not do any of my housework. have taken three bottles of Cardui, the woman's tonic, and am now able to do E myself and feel like new person.
 "I am so thankful for your advice and will always keep Cardui in my house."
 You should certainly waste no time in getting bottle of Cardui, if you feel that you need tonic.
 No one can know so well as you, whether you need one or not. If you feel weak, tired, languid, lazy, unable to work or take an interest ill the things and people around you; if you are cross, irri- table, easily vexed, feel like crying over trifles, and in general what folks call "out of sorts," you need tonic-you need Cardui, the woman's tonic.
 You need not be afraid to take Cardui freely and regularly, for as long time as you feel it helps you. It is perfectly harmless, contains no drugs to form a habit, and can do you nothing but good.
 While Cardui is medicine, it is mild medicine, not powerful dangerous, drug compound, that may exert possible dan- gerous after effects. <.
 No, its mild, beneficial action is per- fectly safe, and does not interfere with any other medicine you may be taking, but its tonic action will help any othes good medicine to do you more good.
 Try Cardui today.
