sufferer from serious Indigestion for
ut least twenty years" continued
Mr.. Scrugea in his Interesting state
ment "She had been in q uretched.
rundown condition and was always
complaining Of feeling badly She
couldn't eat much. bat the little she
did eat would always cause pains in
her stomach. She had headaches so
bad at times she could hardly stand
| il. It just looked hike every bit Of
her strength was getting away from
her. She was dreadfuily nervous,
and didn't know what it was TO get
good nights rest, and she would
get up in the mornings feeling worse
than she did the night before when
she went to bed She lost about all
of the energy she had and couldn't
take interest in anything. She tried
doeors and about every kind of med
icine that is made, reckon, but in-
stead of improving she seemed to be
getting worse all of the time.
"But | thank goodness that we
have found the right medicine at
last She began taking Tanlac a
short time ago, and she is like a
different woman now. After taking
Just one bottle of this medicine she
began to get strength and improve
in every way. Her sleep began to
get restful, her appetite picked up
and what she ate gave her strength
instead Of having n bad after effect
as in the past. For the first time in
fifteen years she can now eat any
thing she wants-such things a'
cabbage, onions, corn, tomatoes anC
the like don't hurt her a particle
Her nerves are quiet and her whole
system is improved She looks ans
says she feels like new woman
| She is full of life and energy and
never hear her complain any mor'
of feeling bad or weak in the least
She thinks Tanlac is the grandes
thing in the world, but she don
think any more Of it than | do, fo
no one is more happy over her mar
velous recovery than | am"

In Memoriam.

In loving remembrance of little
Alice Elizabeth Ellis, who on the 9th
day in the month Of June, 1916,
changed from happy life on earth
among devoted parents and friends
to a happier life above.
| heard quick, childish footsteps,
Soft as the pattering rain
AT my door a childish voice,
Pleading an entrance to gain.
Then | quickly arising,
Crept softly to the door,
Outside | heard little feet,
Restlessly pounding the floor.
| opened slowly the door,
Ang gazed into eager eyes;
Shining with all affection,
OF love that never dies.
| stood in admiration
| OF her sweet and childish charms,
Then | reached out eagerly
To take her into my arms.
Oh, she seemed to shrink away;
| Receding back from the door,
Then there was a binding light,
And | saw her never more.
I Historically, | cried;
| And when from nightmare freed
| knew that I'd been dreaming,
And she was gone indeed
And in my grief | was comforted,
To know more loving arms thai
mine
Have taken her home to Heaven.
To dwell with the great Divine.

Simple frocks such as this one ill 50 many needs that they arc in con- stant demand. As 1t is shown here, this cne is made of light weight broadcloth with trimming of silk gabardine. The sabardinc is exceed ingly handsome and 1t makes an ad- 1nirable contrast with the cloth, but this is a model that can be utilized for serge and other simple wool ma terials, for poplin and for the wash able materials that so many women are making up at this season ot the wear. 1t would be extremely hand some for cotton gabardine or Tor light weight pique or for linen. 1t would make up beautifully in eponge, also it can be utilized for such simple ma terials as gingham and the like and the dress that is made of gingllam is always practical and serviceablc one. The blouse is quite plain and simple but the neck may be finished in two entirely different ways. As 1t IS here, the round collar is joined to it and it can be rolled over with the fronts CT buttoned up closely. The pattern also includes a ilaring pointed section and the blouse can be made with high neck and collar finished with points if preferred. The skirt is quite novel one. 1t is in three pieces but there are inserted hip portions in the fronts and under the curved edges ot the fronts are pockets that are useful and convenient. Besides serving for the gown, these models are admirable for separate use. The blouse is good for any waisting material to be worn with the tailored suit or with he skirt. The coat is an excellent one both for the coat suit and for the gown
 For the medium size the blouse will require 3l3 yards of material 27 inches wide, ? E yards 3o or ? yards 44 with 2s of yard 27 for the trim
 ming. For the skirt will be needed,
 5a4 yards of material o7, 4 yards 30 or 534 yards IA inches wide.
