An ATTACK OF GRIP
USUALLY LEAVES KIDNEYS
IN WEAKENED CONDITION

Doctors in all parts of the country have
been kept busy with the epidemic of grip
which has visited so many homes. The
symptoms of grip this year are often very
distressing and leave the system in run
down condition, particularly the kidneys
which seem to suffer most, as almost every
victim complains of lame back and urin-
airy troubles which should not be neglect
ed, as these danger signals often lead to
dangerous kidney troubles. Druggists
report a large sale on Dr. Kimer's
Swamp-Root which so many people say
soon heals and strengthens the kidneys
after an attack of grip. Swamp Root,
being an herbal compound, has a gentle
healing effect on the kidneys, which is al
most Immediately noticed in most cases
by those who try it. Dr.. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, n. Y, offer to send q sam
pie size bottle of Swamp-Root, On receipt
OF ten cents, to every sufferer who re-
quests it. 4 trial viii convince anyone
who may be in need of it. Regular rnedi-
UNI and large size bottles, for sale at

The path of designers, who are al
ways looking for something new and
beautiful, has been made much easier
than usual this season. Contributions
of two materials, or two kinds of one
material, in a single garment account
for it. The spring and summer styles
were inaugurated by displays that
featured these contributions and we
have benefited by them in several
wayS-in inexpensive and original
frOcks that are attractive, and in re-
modelled dresses that double the length
of service of at least one of the fab
RIGS used in them. The styles never
favored the remodeling of frocks more
than they do now.
Usually a sheer material like chif-
fOn cloth, georgette crepe, voile or net
is made up with a heavier goods and
the refinement of these sheer fabrics
lends tone TO others as familiar and
commonplace as serge or Bingham.
This makes them an immensely valu-
able resource of the professional and
the home dresSmaker. There is no
end Ia the ways in which materials
have been combined in coats and

ems have proved so successful that
they promise a long reign of combi-
nations in the realm of fashions.
The afternoon gown pictured here
shows how well suited to each other
satin and georgette are in fashioning
a lovely and simple frock. One is as
important as the other in the design !;
half the skirt is Of satin and half Of

Home Service Grows.
Like young David CopperfieId, home
service has 'growed out o. knowledge
since the first of the year. At the end
of January, home service sections in
the Pennsylvania division were giving
help of one kind and another to more
than 1000 soldiers and sailors fam
lilies, and at the end of February the
number Of families had increased to
$500.
''This increase in numbers is. in a
way, a measure of the increase of con-
f1dence in the ability of the Red Cross
to help solve family problems, and it
also shows that the Red Cross is prov
ing worthy Of the confidence and reIi-

place in them. The following letter TO

Hats of Fabric

Fabrics are greatly used by the mil
liners, and whole hats, crowns and
brims are fashioned of georgette crepe,
chiffon, satin, tulle or whatever the
designer happens to fancy. Georgette
and crepe de chine are, perhaps, more
used than any of the other materials,
always excepting nets and laces, and a
hat entirely covered with crepe and
showing straw only In the facing Of
the brim is sometimes untrfmmed, save
for drapery and knot OF the crepe.
Lovely colored silks are used for the

vogue.
