Blouses for the coming spring are made of all the daintiest wash fabrics in cotton and silk, and their creators never before presented such varied and beautiful assortments. Excellent as the model waists have been hither- to. those of today are better. The American woman is welded to the blouse it answers her needs perfect ly. It is made for utility. but not at the sacrifice of beauty, and the sheer cottons and lightweight silks used in it's construction are woven to last and to withstand washing. They will even outwear heavier materials.
 Two of the best of the new models are shown here, for the benefit of those who wish to make early pur- chases or to make up their own blouses in advance of the season. Each of them embodies at least one of the new style features of the spring season
 The blouse at the left is made of fine white voile and cut on the most popular of patterns. The back piece is extended over the shoulder to form a short yoke at the front. and the plain surface of the material is relieved by groups of the narrowest of fiat tucks. The vogue for narrow bandings, and two colors in one garment, is reoog nized in this model. A border of voile, in blue or rose or maize color, finishes the edge of the collar and the top of the pockets and cuffs and extends down the fronts. The banding is set in with hemstitching, and the effect is very fine Small sprays of embroidery outline the pock- cts, in the same tint as the banding

WOMEN SUFFERERS
 NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney and bladder trouble and never suspect 1t.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease.
 If the kidneys are not in healthy con dition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 You may suffer a great deal with pain in the back, headache. loss of ambition, nervousness and may be Respondent and irritable.
 Don't delay starting treatment. Dr hilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre- scription, obtained at any drug store, re stores health to the kidneys and is just the remedy needed to overcome such con ditions.
 Get fifty cent or one dollar bottle inn medlately from any drug store.
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer < Co.,, Binghamton, \. Y, for & sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.

Return of Tunics.

Novel in cut and in diversity of styles, the tunie is again a feature, says the Dry Goods Economist Many of the new seasons dresses have the overskirt extremely full and almost even in length with the underskirt. In other models the tunic is long in front or at the sides. with rounded, pointed or caseaded outline in the other sections. Some of the new tunics are trimmed with small ruff fles or have groups of tucks, small or large, in trimming effect. Often

The ribbon ends fasten with a hook and eye under single satin rose, which hides the junction and orna- ments the pile.
