PROVEN SWAMP ROOT
 AIDS WEAK KIDNEYS

The symptoms of kidney and bladder troubles are often very distressing and leave the system in rundown condition. The kidneys seem to suffer most, as al- most every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neglected, as these danger signals often lead to more dangerous kidney troubles.
 Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which, so many people say, soon heals and strength ems the kidneys, Is splendid kidney, liver and bladder medicine, and. being an herbal compound, has a gentle heal ing effect on the kidneys, which is al- most immediately noticed in most cases by those who use 1t.
 A trial will convince anyone who may be in need of it. Better get bottle from your nearest drug store, and start treat ment at once.
 However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. T.. for sample bottle When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.

Striped satins and taffeCas. com bined with plain georgette crepe, for afternoon gowns, are proving them selves an unfailing source of fnspira- ton to the designers. Just the many variations that can be made in the arrangement of stripes gives much room for the play of fancy and for good management of lines. Speaking of stripes, stout women ought to take note that they are to be considered a special dispensation of Providence for their benefit. The modiste who knows how to manage them can do wonders for her stout patrons.
 The pretty afternoon frock shown in the picture is just one more of the happy combinations of striped taffeta and plain georgette that is different from any of the others The dress is mostly Of the striped satin and always the stripes run in a diagonal. The skirt is disposed of by making it plain with stripes running downward from left to right. It has a three-inch hem. is not quite ankle length, and for an older woman should be made little longer.
 The tunic is of aeeordian plaited georgette, with a wide bias border of the satin. It is uneven in length all round. The bodice is very cleverly

managed with the left side cut so that it is extended into a girdle of the satin that is brought around the waist and fastens under the arm at the left. The sleeves are made of georgette crepe, with deep cuffs of satin, and there is a small shawl collar of the crepe. A lace collar partly overlays it, to pro- vide bit of white next the face.
 This pretty frock is made with very little material; stripes make other dec orations, like plaits and tucks, unnec- essary. It takes much cleverness to manage them just right, but the play is worth the candle, for they make very graceful gowns. They are all par tieularly useful for remodeling gowns. because they change the appearance of an old dress completely.
