Many organs take part in assimila-
ton Of food, and a number are active
in eliminating those portions of the
food which are not taken into the
blood for the upbuilding of the body.
OF the eliminative organs, the liver
and the kidneys are of major i'm
portance, and are most likely to- be
overworked and become diseased.
When such is the case, various trou-
bles of a digestive and eliminative
character occur, and such troubles
are so frequent and SO common that
it is absolutely necessary to find
some relief. Warmers Safe Kidney
and Liver Remedy was compounded
over 40 years ago to help equalize the
work of both kidneys and liver How
successful it has been is evidenced
by it's wide spread sale and it's value
is attested by an immense number
of appreciative users who thru these
many years have put it to the sever

results.

material and same tone.
Taffeta is far ahead of any other
fabric as a choice for these smart
blouses, and tricolette comes second,
with georgette a close third. Here
Is pictured smart blouse of trico-
lette, white with rose trimmings.
This blouse is a slip over model
and is somewhat on the MILDLY style.
The small pockets and novel collar
and vestee are of rose velour, an
unusual trimming idea. The rose
velour is trimmed in turn with a
white wool kembroidery In simple
design. Ball buttons on the vestee,
sides and sleeves form the only other
bit of trimming. Such a blouse
would be unusually effective with a
brilliant colored sports skirt of some
of the novelty silks If the rose velour
trimming were replaced with silk to
match the skirt.
