Some time before the days of mid

assemble stocks of silk street suits,
ready to be presented when the first
hot day comes. These midsummer
suits are almost untrimmed, but are
carefully designed and distinguished
by smart style-touches and niceties of
finish that place them close to the
formal suit class. Clever women
sometimes take their graceful but
plain su,eS and tone them up with n

THE MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal SUBJ
stances are at their best.
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
It is the wonderful combination of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use of

Brings Instant Relief,
 Perfect Safety :. :. and <. Everlasting Comfort

g ! The Brooks Rupture Appli. ance is beyond question the most universally endorsed appliance of any kind in the world for the retention and cure of a ruptured condition in men, women and children. It is the result of more than 90 years experience and the percentage of actual cures effected by it's use is a Iittie short of miraculous!
 The Brooks Appliance has so many imitators, that it is never sold in drug stores. or in any other way than, by mail, direct from the maker. This is further necessary Be- cause every Brooks Appliance is especially made and fitted for the case for which it is intended.
 Many hundreds of aPhysi- eisns and Surgeons reeon1- mend the Brooks Appliance and condemn trusses as more harmful than almost any other method of re- tainins; or treating rupture. \ You may not think that a rupture appliance can ever be truly "eomfortabie'-but that is because you have never tried Brooks.

TEN REASONS WHY You Should Send for the Brooks Rupture Appliance

1. It is absolutely the only Appli- ance of the kind on the market to- day, and in it are embodied the prin- ciples that inventors have sought after for. years.
 2. The Appliance for retaining the rupture cannot be thrown out of po- sition
 3. Being an air cushion of soft rubber it clings closely to the body, yet never blisters or causes irritation.
 4. Unlike he ordinary so-called pads, used in other trusses, it is not cumbersome or ungainly. s5x.. It is small, soft, and pliable, and positively cannot be detected through the clothing. 6. The soft, pliable bands hold ing the appliances do not give one the unpleasant sensation of wearing a harness. T. There is nothing about it to get foul, and when it becomes soiled 1 it can be washed without injuring il in the least.
 g.. There are no metal springs ir the Appliance to torture one by cut. ting and bruising the flesh.
 g. All of the material of whici the Appliances are made is of tn, very best that money can buy, mak' ing it a durable and safe Applianc, to wear
 10. My reputation for honesty ant fair dealing is 50 thoroughly estab lished by an experience of over thirt! years of dealing with the public, ant my, prices are so reasonable, my term! so fair. that there certainly should b. Eno hesitancy in sending the free cou | pon today.
