WORST BACKACHE
Croxone Makes Kidney Troubles,
Bladder Disorders, Rheumatic
Pains Vanish.

If YOU suffer with backaching kid
ney trouble, have disagreeable bladder
and urinary disorders, or are tortured
with rheumatism, stiff joints, and it's
heart-wrenching pains, you will be sur
prised how quickly and surely Crox-
one will relieve all such troubles.
1t soaks right in through the walls,
membranes and Innings, neutralizes;,
dissolves and makes the kidneys sift
out and filter away the uric acid and
poisons from the blood, and leaves the
kidneys and urinary organs clean.
strong, healthy and well.
1t matters not how long you have
suffered, how old you are, or what
you have used, it is practically impos-
sibIe to take Croxone without results.
1t starts to work the minute you take
it and is guaranteed to relieve you
the first time you use it, or cost you
nothing.
If you suffer with pains in your back
and sides, or have any signs of kidney,
bladder trouble, or rheumatism, such
as puffy swellings under the eyes or in
the feet and ankles, If you are nerv-
Gus, tired and run down, or bothered
with urinary disorders, Croxone really
will relieve your misery and do 1t
quickly. An original package costs
but a trifle, and all druggists are au-
thorized to return the purchase price

The small round hat with slightly
rolling brim is covered with the mate
rial put on smoothly. The crown is
small and pulled, and the odd standing
ornament is made of a hemmed strip
of Grape wrapped about a supporting
wire and ruffied about it at the top.
The scarf is only a plain length of
chiffon with its edges finished with
wide border of Grape. The ends are
gathered and finished with an .orna-
ment made of folds Of Grape and fin
ished with a bound scarf end of the
fabric. This is % strip of the material
bound with narrow bias fold of Grape
like that which trims the muff.
A ready made huff bed lined with
black silk and covered with it as an
interlining makes the construction of
the muff simple matter Five deep
folds of Grape are placed over each
side and gewed down at the ends. A
strip bound of the material is brought
across the top, tackled down one side,
covering the ends of the plaits and tied
in a knot with hanging end as a finish
The set is as handsome as anyone
could wish and only ordinary skill in
sewing is required to make it.

of draping in the best way. There is
a pretty fichu of net worn under the
bodice, and standing ruff about the
neck. A finish of long loops of black
velvet ribbon in narrow width is
placed at the termination of the
neck ruff at each side.
One cannot help wondering at and
admiring the lovely turban which
finishes this toilette. A length OF
soft fur, or plush, appears to be
wrapped about the head and provid-
ed with the narrowest of supporting
brims at one side Poised at the CEN

less butterfly made of velvet. The
audacity of wingless butterfly used
as an ornament would be unforgiv
able except that the gorgeous crea-
ture in gold is the real butterfly,
which fact his velvet fly ship is pro-
claiming at the top of his-turban.
The pretty clothing of the feet is
to be noted. Silk stockings in black,
and pointed slippers of black satin,
laced across the instep with narrow
black ribbon.
Not a jewel is worn here. The

ception and the smallest detail has

And wondering shepherds eazcd at them
And bowed the heads which they had
barred
Three wise men who had journeyed far
Rode slowly DER the hills that night.
Still following their guiding star
Whose constant beams were broad and
bright.
At Christina. time they heard a voice
That sweetly sounded far on high;
"Rejoice. ye sons of men. rejoicel"
The words rang clearly from the sky.
The trembling wise men paused to hear
The song that angels sang to them.
And ceased to doubt and turned from
fear,

illustrates how successfully this beau

forms the scarf. The ornaments on
each piece are fashioned of the Grape.
