This Calendar with its 153 sheets 153x 20 in ches in size makes a bright ornament for the wall and is a useful acquisition in any home or office on account of its displayed weather predictions. The prominent numbers can be read across a large room, as can the colored sig nal flags showing the weather condi tions for each day. These weather signals illustrate the forecasts of Prof. Andrew J. DeVoe who achieved great prominence by his accurate predic tions of the great Galveston, St Lou- isand Minnesota storms and cyclones. So great is the popularity of these predictions that they are printed in 2,500,000 of these calendars and in 18 000.000 of the Ladies’ Birthday Al manacs which are issued by the Chat tanooga Medicine Co. each year. We understand that a copy of this weather chart and calendar may be secured by sending 10c. in stamps to the Chatatanooga Medicine Co., Chattanooga, Tenn.

The sbirrings meet insertions of Irish point lace with faggotings in silk. Tne sleeves reach to the elbows and the full waitt is almost concealed^ by a deep bertha of lace to match that on the skirt. Separate waists for evening have uot the prestige accorded the entire dress, but nevertheless they appear as in dispensable part of the outfit, and the fancy for all lace waists amounts almost to a furor. White over white is the caprice of the hour, though less calculated to show off the pattern of the lace, than when worn over colors. In jewelry many new and interest ing features are presented, but deal ers in precious stones find to their chagrin, that their best designs are so skilfully imitated, that their trade suffers not a little injury. Several stores on Broadway, quite handsome in appearance, are devoted to imita tion goods, and ladies enter them uu- blusbingly.

Over-Work Weakens Your Kidneys. Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. AH the b-cod in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities In the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned blood through veins and arteries. L used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on its merits by all druggists in fifty- cent and one-dollar siz es.

A T?.T A It has recently been discovered that the germs that produce Malaria, breed and multiply in the intestines and from there spread throughout the system by means of the blood. This fact ex plains why Malaria is hard to cure by the old method of treatment. Quinine. Iron, etc., stimulate the nerves and build up the blood, but do not destroy the germs that cause the disease. Rydale’s Tonic has a specific effect upon the intestines and bowels, freeing them from all disease breeding mi crobes. It also kills the germs that infest the veins and arteries. It drives from the blood all poisonous matter and makes it rich and healthy. RYDALE’S TONIC is a blood builder, a nerve restorer, and a Malaria destroyer. Try it, it will not disap point you.
