To Advance Hat Prices

DANBURY, Conn, Dec. 2e.-Ad-
vnnces Of at least Sc q dozen In the
Wholesale prices Of all grades Of mems
hats Is considered by close observers
in this market as being made neees-
sary soon By the radical increase In
the cost Of hatters' furs, which have
lately reached the highest point In re-
cent years with the exception Of the
wartime peak. In many instances
prices have been advanced already on
spring goods, and those In intimate
contact with evory detail Of the hat
industry are convinced that a general
advance. becoming effective with the
fall openings or previous. cannot be
avoided. Only a pronounced drop In
the fur market IN the immediate fu-
ture. they say. could keep hats on their
present levels, and the situation at
present holds out no hope Of this.

A diagram prepared by the bank

By the same stores In 1921. The dia-

Many bad cases of kidney trouble
result from a cold or chill. Congested
kidneys fall behind in fltering the
poison-laden blood and backache
headache, dizziness and disordered
kidney action follow. Don't neglect a
cold. Use Doan's Kidney Pills at the
first sign of kidney trouble. Follow
this Ocala residents example:
Mrs. E. w. Leavengood, 322 North
Magnolia St., says: 81 can certainly
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. They
have been my standard kidney remedy
for years. When l took cold, it set
tied on my kidneys and caused kidney
complaint. At times sharp, shooting
pains caught me through my kidneys,
almost taking my breath away. My
nerves were shattered and I became
easily excited. I tired easily and ev-
erything seemed a task for me.

The Ocala evening star., 1922-10-25

In the last report of the city council
proceedings appeared an erroneous
paragraph about complaint made by
Mrs. B. M. Hunt. The erroneous word
ing of the paragraph is the fault of
the paper 1t also cast reflection on
all Mrs. Hunts neighbors, by not
specifying who the complaint was
made of. The trouble is that the peo-
pie living in the house Immediately
back of Mrs. Hunts residence have
to do their washing in the backyard
of their residence; the lot is very
small and when they start fire under
the washpot the smoke and sparks
often blow right thru Mrs. Hunts
house, causing danger as well as dis
comfort, and she applied to the city
officials for relief. On the other hand,
said people have no other place to do
their washing. City officials say there
is no remedy, unless Mrs. Hunt takes
out warrant. and she would probab-
ly lose the case. After looking over
the ground, it seems to the Star that
a fire in that particular place is liable
to cause a much bigger one, and il it
does the city officials will be to blame
for not forbidding it.
