About Ave years ago I wrote to you
that I had been a terrible sufferer
from kidney and bladder troubles.
and that my physician informed me
that my left kidney was in such con-
dition that there was no hope for my
recovery. I was advised to try your
Swamp-Root AT a last resort, and aft
err taking four fitty-cent size bottles. /
passed q gravel stone which weighed
ten grains. l. afterwards forwarded
you this gravel stone. Have had no
return of any trouble since that time
and cannot say too much in favor of
your wonderful preparation. Swamp

fail.

March Winds.

March Winds.
The winds of March are little bad boys
Without M manners and full Of
noise:
They are always in mischief and rum
ming away.
And thinking up impolite games to
play.
They tie knots in clothes that are
hung out to dry,
And knock peoples hats off and send
them sky-high;
They whistle down chimneys and
blow out the light.
And make dreadful sounds in the dead
Of the night.
They haven't at, all the respect that
they should
Fol the virtues Of boys and girls who
are good: :
They Boo" at them loudly and chase
them about,
I'LL they pretty near wish that they
admit come out,
Altogether they're not to be greatly
admired.
The best thing they do is to get SO
dead tired
That they have to go home. in tremb-
ling and fear,
And they're Kept there in bed for the
rest Of the year.

What Dollar Can Do-Ready-M -Mades Fabuloa1sIy Cheap-Beat Out the
 Home Dresp-Maker

The old fashioned woman who used
 to hire a seamstress and sit for a sewing and shipping away on the sheet spread to protect the carpet, knows better now. Instead of wear ing herself out she buys the ready made gown, tlaa4 is better made and cheaper than any she can plan at home.
 If it needs a little fitting, a dollar will bring the gown into conformity with her figure.
 In the early spring season the wo- man with small means has a chance to get her ready made frocks up to date and really little ahead.
 I saw a group of linen gowns mark ed For Southern Wear, and the price ticket didn't even reach the dol lar mark Ninety eight cents was the charge for one that would be the despair of the home dreSs-Inaker. It was a, pale lavender, very good linen
 too, with a. high. waist outlined by a cord of white The waist had a fichu effect with white embroidered scallope
 and a pretty daisy pattern on the revers. The scal1ops were also re- peated on the turn-back cuffs, and the general effect was more than five times ninety-eight cents.
 Up on Fifth avenue where ninety eight cents Is price rarely displayed, @ dollar ninety-eigFt ticketed a Gvhite null. There wasn't a, bit of trimming on it-merely tucks and dainty little stitches that looked hand made, even though they weren't.
 A smart little touch was given in marrow black velvet ribbon run through beading at square neck and sleeves. This little gown spelt quail Edty in every line.
 Esven the travelling costume of coat and skirt springs into joyous bloom in
 the early months of the year. While it may not represent the highest type of the art of tailoring it has an Etair'' that one cannot secure in the work of the home dress-maker. Take for example a plain gray cloth with white collar and cuffs The girl or woman Of high color will find this costume joy at $5.98.
 In the old days a suit at SIP was considered one of the greatest bar gains imaginable. When it got down to ten dollars it seemed too good to
 be true, and at $5.9S it appears almost beyond the dream of the most limited purse.
 Study the stores if you want to save.
 There is no use trying to wrest1e with
 gowns and goods at home in these days when the manufacturer buys in quantity and the wearer or consumer can get better results for less money
 by relying on the Judgment of some one who really knows whats what'' and how to achieve it.
