Pretty Cap for Christmas

Boudoir or breakfast caps are among the pretty luxuries that women delight in and every year at holiday time they flourish anew. IL seems that they are more captivating than ever this year and it Is certain they were never shown in so great a variety of designs.

 Two of the prettiest of the new caps are shown in the picture and 1t is evi- dent that they are easy to make. At the top cream-colOred, silk lace is made into a small puff which is mere ly a circular piece gathered about the edge to fit over the top of the head. A frill of the same lace Is sewed to the puff. Over this little lace cap a shaped piece made of ribbon or silk or satin Is slipped. Ii is made of two pieces wide at the top and narrowing to a bridle under the chin, and is lined with silk.

Because most city lots are deep and

Because most city lots are deep and narrow. 1t ts unusual to see a house designed as a city home which has its longer dimension across the front Aside from the few cases already men, toned in which it is necessary to cut lots of peculiar shape on account of streets intersecting at sharp angles, the only place where a house with wide front is likely to be used Is on a corner lot which offers frontag. on two streets. Even If plenty of room Is available, the usual custom is to build a house with its narrow side to the front, even though such practice robs the owner of space which might be used as large front or back lawn and presents the narrow side of the house as the only part that is ever noticed by passers-by.
 The design shown h,re presents an unusually attractive appearance from the street. Since the gable roof is placed with its ridge parallel to the street, the tile-covered surface, broken by the dormer with its six square win dows, is a prominent feature. The up- per floor is finished with shingles.

Don't Neglect Kidneys
Swamp-R Root. pr. Kilmer's Prescrip-
 tion, Overcomes Kidney Trouble

It is now conceded by physicians that the kidneys should have more attention as they control the other organs to re- markable degree and do a tremendous amount of work in removing the poisons and waste matter from the system by Altering the blood.
 The kidneys should receive some as sistance when needed. We take less ex. ercise, drink less water and often eat more rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys to do more work than nature intended. Evidence of kidney trouble, such as lame back, annoying bladder troubles, smartiDg or burning, brick dust or sediment, sallow complexion, rheumatism, maybe weak or irregular heart action, warns you that your kid neys require help immediately to avoid more serious trouble.
 An ideal herbal compound that has had most remarkable success as a kidney and bladder remedy is Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root. There is nothing else like it. It is Dr. Kilmer's prescription used in pri- vate practice and it is sure to benefit you. Get bottle from your druggist.
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper. Adv.
