Important to all Women
Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands Of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Womens complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head.
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita.
BILE and maybe despondent; it makes
anyone 30.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmers Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
A good kidney medicine, possessing
real healing and curative value, should
be blessing to thousands Of nervous,
over-worked women.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney
liver and bladder medicine will do for
them. Every reader of this paper, who
has not already tried it, by enclosing ten
cents to DR.. Kilmer & CO., Binghamton
N. Y, may receive sample size bottle by
Parcel Post. You can purchase the

New York.-Nothing so delights the
heart of child as to hold flag In its
hand. Youth and the symbols of pa
triotism are linked. Wasn't it Gals
worthy who gave us that association
Of the two gay elements Of life In say
ing of girl that she carried her youth
in her face, like flags flying?
1t was clever, therefore, of the de-
signers to launch the youngsters into
Victory clothes. The elders may ex-
press their relief from the tension of
terror that handcuffed us all for four
years by bursting out of the chrysallis
into the butterfly, but their clothes will
not be parts Of the flag. 1t Is not fit-
ting, writes a leading fashion author
ity, that any but youth should wear
the bits of red, white and blue which,
combined with certain skill, make
the alluring Victory clothes of this
hour.
There are tiny frocks for tiny chill.

WHY WOMEN DREAD
OLD AGE

Don't worry about old age. Don't worry
about being in other peoples way when
you are getting on in years. Keep your
body in good condition and you can be as
hale and hearty in your old days as you
were when a kid, and every one will be
glad to see you.
The kidneys and bladder are the causes
Of senile Affections. Keep them clean and
in proper working condition. Drive the
poisonous wastes from the system and
avoid uric acid accumulations. Take GOLD
MEDAL HARLEM Oil Capsules periodical
ly and you will find that the system will
always be in perfect working order. Your
spirits will be enlivened, your muscles
made strong and your face have once
more the look of youth and health
New life, fresh strength and health will
come as you continue this treatment, When
your first vigor has been restored continue
for awhile taking capsule or two each
day. They will keep you in condition and
prevent a return Of your troubles.
There is only one guaranteed brand of
HARLEM Oil Capsules, GOLD MEDAL.
There are many fakes on the market. Be
sure you get the Original GOLD MEDAL
Imported HARLEM Oil Capsules. They are
the only reliable. For sale by all first class
druggists.

KIDDIES TO DON

tiny, colored fringe as lining for
jackets. 1t had the triple qualities Of
endurance, originality and cheapness,
this new lining. 1t was a wartime
necessity, SO Doucet thought, but 1t
speedily became piece Of economy
that threatened to be high fashion.
Probably the spring will make 1t ex-
ceedingly popular. 1t is good idea
for those who deplore the lack Of serv-
ice In coat Innings, especially In these
days when one is not sure of dyes.
The use of unbleached muslin for
interior decoration has become well es-
tablished, especially for country homes
where curtains of this fabric are edged
with colored fringe and bedspreads and
pillow shams are made of 1t with bor-
ders of colored cloth in turkey red or
dark blue.

One woman who was enchanted with
a Victory frock of this fabric exclaim-
ed: "Why. that's the material / use
to cover my ironing boardw 1t Is.
And it will wear as well on youngster
as on an ironing board.
This style of costumery for chill
dren came out of the South, out Of
Virginia, where unbleached muslin Is
well known and the devastation Of
war, its restrictions, privations and
economies, Is still terrible memory
even to those who were born after the
Civil war.
1t is rather a strange thing that some
of the great centers have adopted ju-
venile clothes that have been designed

There are frocks for older children
which are made of red, white and blue

ored bunting In the three colors.
There is q return to far.off and
fascinating fashion in the blue bunt-
ing frocks for children between eight
and ten years old which are touched
up with red bunting and ornamented
with white turnover collar and cuffs.
There are pleated skirts Of red flag
bunting with straight little cuirass
blouses of blue bunting fastened In q
straight line down the front with red
buttons. The cuffs and collar are
taken from the time of the Stuarts.
They are made Of white linen edged
with linen lace and touched with red

After working on woman who had

Children Lead Fashions.
The season has impressed upc
those who are interested in juveni
clothes the fact that the youngster.
are sometimes well in the lead with
new fashions and that their elders
stumble along after them.
Once upon a time. when the world
was young and cruel, It considered It
correct for children to be encased in
bones and costumed In brocade and
metal, heavy embroideries. long skirts
and stiffiy-pointed bodices. 1t was
cruel to make youth the resemblance
Of age. Today we make age the re-
semblance Of youth. In that lies our
virility, our enthusiasm and our san
ity. The children lead the way in
belts around hips, short sleeves,
shocked bIouses, bobbed hair, socks,
low-heeled shoes, straight lines and
uncorseted figures. Their mothers,
and sometimes their grandmothers
initiate them.
1t behooves women to look upon thii
parade Of fashions with interest, for
the little human flags running down
the path Of fashion today are blazing
the way for Us.
