Don't Neglect Kidneys
SWamp-Root, Dr.. Kilmer'S PreScrip-
ton, 0vercOmeS Kidney Trouble

Tt 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
fltering 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, smarting 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 kidney and
bladder remedy is DIR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root. There is nothing else like it. II
is DR.. Kilmer's prescription used in pri
vate practice and it is sure to benefit you

However, if you wish first to test thi'

STUNNING SUIT OF FUR-FABRIc.

ties look well in entire suits. The best
choice for this purpose is the imitation
baby lamb, and this is the variety
employed for the suit pictured. 1t is
banded with an imitation beaver fur.
The coat is three-quarter length,
Russian model, with wide belt lined
with satin. The skirt is plain and
traight-hanging, with it's border twice
as wide as the landings about the bot
tom of the coat. This is detail
that adds much to the smartness of
the suit. The wide collar fastens dl-
agonally at the front with three black
satin-covered buttons.
While the designer has managed this
suit of fur-fabric so that it is altogeth-
er attractive, combinations of plain
cloths or velvet with these heavy
weaves are less difficult to work out
successfully. In these suits the border
at the bottom Of the cloth skirt some
times extends almost to the knees. Or
the skirt is laid in wide panels with

two coiffures in the picture are fine
eXponentS of the new styles.
All sorts of beautiful hair ornaments
naturally follow this new elaboration
in hairdressing, and they add life and
sparkle to it. Spanish combs, thrust
in at the back, below the puffs or coils
on the crown, are among old things
that have been revived. And there are
many other combs and pins, including
high medallions, that support wells or
scarfs of malines worn for full dress
in the evening. They suggest the man
tilla or the oriental veil and fall from
the coiffure to the waistline or below.
These are extremes of the mode but
other coiffures must measure up to
them or look mediocre. A mediocre
hairdress with a dazzling evening gown
is not to be tolerated.
Rarely there is coiffure with the
back hair arranged below the crown,
| but it is the exception that proves the
! rule. Take for guidance these facts

BADGES for the Wounded.

Those people whose curiosity leads
them to study the many badges OF
rank which now decorate the sleeves
of officers and men of the allied armies
have been puzzled by the appearance
of new badge in the French army
French soldiers on leave in England
may be seen wearing narrow stripes on
the arm above the elbow and ordinary
people have been unable to understand
why some of the rank and file have
been able to sport even more of these
decorations than officers of high rank.
The explanation is simple. Every stripe
means wounded once. The French
government has inaugurated scheme
by which every soldier is entitled to
wear one for every time he has been
wounded.
Some men have already won several
such stripes and the other day one
man in London was the proud weareI
of nine.

In Woman S Realm
Suits Of FuFabcs Seem Destined to Have Extensive Vogue
This Coming Winter-Elaborate Coffures Are Fea-
ture of the Season-Mus Be High to Be in the
Best Fashion.

Hair for these new modes must be
beautifully waved and precisely placed.
No locks are allowed to stray at their
own sweet will there is a definite pO-
sition for every strand and it is clev-
erly pinned to place. The hair lies
close to the head and is puffed or
coiled or loOped at the top of the
crown.
But the arrangement of the hair
about the face varies and either the
covered or uncovered forehead is ac-
ceptable. OF the latter style there are
few examples compared to the number
of those coiffures in which the hair is
laid in waves about the brow. The

More Horses Than Ever.

For all the motor vehicles which are
multiplying like rabbits, horses are in
creasing in number. In New York
State q census was taken by school
children last year under the auspices
of the State education and agricultural
departments. This was the first CEN
sus of it's kind ever attempted.
The children's figures give the num-
ber of horses last year at 1,017T2S,
which is an increase of 10S,000 over
the Federal census Of 1910. The num-
ber of cows remains unchanged, but
sheep fell off S06,000. A gain Of 2O0,-
900 is shown in swine.

Fur-fabrics have extended their field
of usefulness and are occasionally
made into suits as well as coats. Their
glossy surfaces result in stunning eff
fects for winter wear, and they are
trimmed with landings of natural fur
or of a contrasting fur-fabric. The
usual management of the suits is ad-
mirable, with skirt of plain cloth
banded with fur-fabric and coat
made of the same fur-fabric. And oc-
casionally both skirt and coat are of
the furry material, as in the suit
shown in the picture.
Nearly all the fur-fabrics make ef-
fective bandings, but only few varie-
Iron County register., 1916-10-19

emplacements of fur-fabric on each
one.
Straight "chemise" gowns, made of
imitation baby lamb, are among the
new showings, trimmed with hand
some Jets. Jet buttons and girdles OF
let beads added to handsome orna-
ments of jet make the richest sort of
gown in the simplest sort of cut. They
are high-necked, but are unfastened at
the throat when worn indoors, and
turned back to show the top of the
filmlest of underwaists.
The high coiffure has returned and
elaboration marks the new vogue in
hairdressing. 1t must be so, for sim
pie styles would not correspond with
the rich, really gorgeous gowns that
october has brought in for afternoon
and evening wear this winter.

For Falling Hair.

A simple tonic that will help to ar
rest falling hair is made by putting
half pound of rosemary into one pint
of distilled water, and stewing very
slowly for several hours. Then strain
through flannel, and when cold add a
quarter of a pint of bay rum. Apply a
little to the roots of the hair two or
three times week after well brushing
and massaging the scalp.

Bio Demand for Pneumatic Tires.

How many people realize the sensa-
tional development that the pneumatic
tire business has experienced? The
first company to undertake the manu-
facture of pneumatic tires was the
Dunlop Company, organized at Dub
lin, Ireland, in 1889, with capital of
about $4,000 to make tires for bicy-
cles, and it rapidly grew to be a great
business. Then came the automobile
to add it's demands, and today, only
twenty-seven years later, the pneu'
matte tire business of the world is esti-
mated at the enormous sum of $780,
