her three bottles of Vinol, and from
the good it has done her | can truly

the combined action of the medicinal
elements extracted from Gods livers,
combined with the blood-making
and strength-creating properties of
tonic iron, which are contained in
Ninol

LUSTIG'S MILLINERY
 DISPLAY IS ATTRACTIVE
Handsomely RelnOdelled ParlOrS ThrOnged With Prospective
 Buyers,

As one enters the beautifully ap- pointed millinery parlors of the M. Lustig, HI Main street; which in its remodelled state is now ready for the Easter display of the rarest and most exquisite creations in ladies' fine headgear, one is impressed with the display as being out of the ordinary in every particular. Even before the store is entered the most beautifully artistic window decorations greet ones eye, with large vase of natural ' Easter lilies, occupying the center of the north window.
 The further you penetrate the iabryinth of modern showcases, tables. palms, and various other adornment, the more you will be inn pressed with the variety, the scope, and the correctness of the styles shown by this house. Among the inn ported models you will find creations with the most artistic effects. Flow CTS and feathers adorn the latest shapes in rich profusion, all with the most exquisite color toning. revealing the conceptions of the leading mll- liners of the style martS of gay Paris, as we'll as the staff of expert milliners employed at the Lustig parlors.
 Styles this year vary much from last More flowers, and ribbon and lace trimming will be used, with dain- ty combina tionS of feather and flower effects. There is also a vast differ ence in the shapes of the hats, small brims will be worn with a higher crown, and the wide brims with a lower crown. The foundation effects run largely to combination cOlOrS In straws. Primrose will be the pre- dominant color, with the proper ton ing. One of the imported models shown at this store is a Parisian pro- duction of unusual beauty. It is the ESr~i1 oI, how nf al lace, threaded with gold, and ton ing of plumes and flowers with the popular primrose as the color scheme Tailored hats will also be worn this year and occupy their usual pop ular place., The same color scheme shapes. Lustig's has always been headquarters for ladies' tailored hats of the exclusive variety.
 Counters and show cases filled with imported flowers, feather fancies. ribbons. etc.,, as we'll as the new de- partment of shirt waists for ladies all in orderly shape, make the store cred effects will be seen the new Macred- -Nuidi and Paradise Aigrettes, ostrich and feather pom-poms, and plumes of all sizes. We should say word about the individuality and originality of Lus- the store trimmed in identical fash ion. Each hat is distinctive. And this fact alone is largely responsible for the popularity of the Lustig store for the past 25 years.
 Every lady will want to visit the opening at Lustig's millinery store which will last three days-Thursday and Friday, the remaining days--will furnish ample opportunity, and Mir. Lustig extends a cordial invitation through this paper to all.

MISS .QUIGLEYS
 MILLINERY OPENING

The spring opening of Miss Quig- ley's millinery parlors in the. NeWfield building, 11S8 Main street, today, was marked by the reception of many pa irons. Miss Quigley's well appointed establishment, on the second floor of the centrally located building, is far enough away from the street to pro- vide shoppers with a comfortable rest ing place.
 before, Miss Quigley's ordinarily ex- tensive stock is strikingly diversified. There are a great many different nov cities in shades, linen and ecru, straws, and materials of many de- scriptions The primrose shades from deep cerise to pale rose are striking ly attractive, while the golden hour, blended with rose gray blue, and the bright green and white combinations lend to the variety. The floral trim mings, too, are in many shades. vivid blue shading into green purple, and blending with cloud gray.
 At Miss Quigleys, the ribbons this season deserve special notice. One in particular is the Cathedral glass rib bon. All the blending tones in the velvet ribbon as we'll as the plainer effects, are to be seen
 Especially pretty among the many styles is a handsome hat in ablack hemp, faced with rOsettes, trimmed with a wreath of large chiffon peoples in rose pink tones, large ring shaped lace loop with pink foundation of small ponpies.
 Another speciality for the opening is the castle tailored hat, shown in a diversity of natty finishes. The open- ing will continue today and tomor- row.

 Because
 I know a place up-country
 Tn Gods great out-of-doors, A quiet sheltered corner
 On which the spring-time pours The wine of warmth and magic, And well I know the sun Has kissed the grove of naples And sap begins to run. There are sounds and sights that mon- ey brings.
 They. are good to hear and to see, But they're city sights and city sounds And right now they've no charm for Just
 Because
 want to see the bluebirds
 And watch a sap-snow fall, To see the pussy willows And hear. the robins call; To see the frisky chipmunks AS oft before I've done, I want to be np-country
 When the sap begins to run. sit in the seats of the mighty, And gather my share of the best, Nor weary of toll that brings treasure Still, now am filled with unrest,
 Just Because
 want to see the sap-bush, And smell the wood fire smoke, To watch the boiling kettles, And see the old home folk; I'm hungry for hot sugar
 And the simple, homely fun That's sure to be up-country When the sap begins to run.
