DON'T FORGET
MRS. PORTER'S
PUDDING WEEK
Seattle Eager to Taste This
Newest Dainty-Light. De-
licious. All-Year-Round
Dessert.

So we'll liked and so delicious
are Mrs. porter's Salad Dressing
and Mayonnaise that Seattle people
were instantly interested when an
nouncement was made that Mrs.
Porter had two new dainties 10 set
before them. These are Mrs. Por-
ter's Fruit Pudding and Mrs. Por.
ter's Fig Pudding-dainty, light
desserts. Just as tasteful in summer
as at any other season--just the
things for the hurried dessert. the
unexpected guest.
Already these new puddings, like
the Salad Dressing and Mayonnaise,
have been awarded gold medals at
the Panama.Pacific Exposition for
purity. excellence and flavor. Cali
fornia has taken TO the new pud-
dings with great enthusiasm. Al
ready Mrs. Porter has sent thou
sands OF dollars worth OF the new
products to the Southern state--in
fact. has been unable to meet the
big demand.
Seattle seems even keener than
California to place the new pud'
dings upon Its tables, because this

has achieved her great success as
n maker OF table dainties and con-
diments. in her spotlessly neat and
home-like kitchen factory.
So the grocers and the markets
OF Seattle are honorlng Mrs. Porter
and calling the attention OF their
patrons this week TO the special
Mrs. Porter's Pudding Week.
which lasts until next Saturday.
II your grocer forgets TO remind

RHEUMATISM k MYSTERY

Some diseases give immunity from an other attack but rheumatism works just the other way.
 Every attack of rheumatism invites another. Worse than that it reduces the body's power so that each attack is worse than the one before.
 If any disease needs curing carly it is rheumatism but there is almost no dis ease which physicians find more difficult to treat successfully. When medicine does help rheumatism nobody knows how or why it docs 1t.
 All authorities agree that the blood be- comes thin with alarming rapidity as rheumatism develops. Maintaining the quality of the blood thereforeis reason able way of preventing and combating rheumatism. That it works out in fact is shown by the beneficial results in the treatment of rheumatism, acute, muscu- lar and articular, with the blood tonic, Dr. Williams Pink Pills.
 That hundreds who take Dr. Williams Pink Pills for their rheumatism get well is a fact beyond dispute. That the rheu. matistn docs not return as long az tho blood is kept rich and red is equally true.
