NURSE FINDS A
PERFECT REMEDY

''From my long experience as nurse
I do not hesitate to say that / con-
slider Tanlac Natures most perfect
remedy" recently declared Mrs. !. A.
Borden, 425 Pontius Ave. Seattle,
Wash. Mrs. Borden is a graduate of
the National Temperance Hospital,
Chicago, and her wide experience In
caring for the sick lends particular
emphasis to her statement.
II have used Tanlac exclusively for
seven years In the treatment of my
charity patients continued Mrs Bor-
den, "and my experience has been that,
for keeping the stomach, liver, kidneys
and bowels functioning properly and
for toning up the system in general,
Tanlac has no equal. Recently l had
a woman patient who could not even
keep water on her stomach for fifteen
minutes. Six bottles of Tanlac fixed
her up so she could eat absolutely any
thing. Another patient, man, seemed
unable to digest any food at all. Three
bottles of Tanlac put him In such fine
shape he went back to work. These
two cases are typical. My confidence
in Tanlac is unlimited"
Tanlac is sold by all good druggists,
Take no substitute. Over 40 million
bottles NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Fads and Fashions of Today

While the cities are sweltering

For this reason, the sweater is

days, and the shop windows are filled
with an enhancing variety of models
in all conceivable styles.
In one window of shop which
is noted for it's smart doggy sport
things, l noted some exceptionally
attractive sweater costumes of
sweaters and skirts which were dis
tinguished by their brilliant colors
and harmonious combinations.
A sleeveless coat sweater Of white
alpaca yarn, with fibre silk border in
red, topped a pleated skirt OF wool
crepe with alternating box and side
pleats; a mannish coat sweater of
mohair yarn, with plaided waistcoat

flannel which was tucked in such
way as to give the new plaided eff
feet: a swagger coat sweater Of fibre
silk in smart Jacquard design of
French blue on a white background,
accompanied box pleated skirt of
white satin; and a sleeveless coat
sweater of mohair yarn and fibre silk
with monogram design, and fibre
silk border and belt, had a knife
pleated skirt of crepe silk in white.
These were all designed for sports
and informal day wear.
The slip-on sweater in the sketch
is quite a gay affair. On a back
ground Of tete de negre silk, there
is embroidered in solid and thread
design, Egyptian figures, which are
said to be exact reproductions of
symbols found ON Tut's tomb.
Whether this information is anthem
tic or not, an effect is very striking,
and worn with skirt of material,
matching the foundation of knife
pleats, makes a cool costume for
afternoon wear.
Wraps for the evening are three
quarter lengths and come in wide
range of designs. Very popular are
the knitted wrap in soft silk and
wool mixtures In white and pastel
shades, lined with matching silks.
While we find coats of this fabric,
the cape is considered the smarter
mode
Accordion pleated chiffon-several
layers in thickness with each layer of
different shade-as extensively
used. These are very charming and
give warmth and at the same time
preserve the dressy effect sought for
the more formal entertainments.

gay things to wear at summer re-
sorts, but the American girl prefers
to make clothes secondary consid-

Benn passed about five years ago.
Mr.. Benn resided at Melbourne nine
years and then traded land at Mel
bourne for the area which afterward
became the city of Aberdeen. At that
time the land was merely mixed
marsh and forest at the junction of
the Chehalis and Wishkah rivers, but
after making the trade Mr.. Benn an

build city here.
Aberdeen was incorporated in 1885

Der OF the town council. There were
very few people at this point, both
Hoquiam and Cosmopolis having been
founded earlier than Aberdeen. Ho
quiam had been founded four years
before Mr.. Benn planned to build a
city here.
In laying out the city of Aberdeen,
Mr.. Benn worked with Captain Wealth
erwax, who owned adjoining property.
and the plan of the city with streets
of suitable width and alleys through
out was the result of their foresight.
AS an aid toward building city, Mr.
Benn gave away, to working men who
would build their homes, large num-
Der of lots in Aberdeen. Though his
generosity and confidence were often
abused by those who received free
building sites. he never altered his
generous treatment of those who de-
sired to build homes in Aberdeen.

great courage and patient fortitude,
Mr.. Benn endured the hardships Of the
early days as the first pioneer. His
splendid spirit and example had it's ef-

made the greatest progress of any city
in southwestern Washington since the
date of it's incorporation.
