A model is made of rose colored linen trimmed with one of the new linen braids that is so effective and ball fringe and is worn over a gown of sheer white mull, but silk can be used for the boleros or linen also the same for the skirt, while a thinner material is used for the waist and a hundred other combinations might be suggested. * * * Miss Idelle Brown, after a pleasant visit to relatives in the city, has re turned to Spartanburg.

Ridgeway, Secretary of the American Anti-Treat Society, writes the following letter from the Grand Central Hotel, St. I aal, Minn.: “ It is with great pleasure that I en dorse Peruna as an honest medi cine, competent to do all it claims. I have 1 used it several, times and know of nothing that cures so com pletely, and at the same time builds up the system. “I have rec ommended it to a number of my friends and always feel that I do them a service for I know how satisfactory the results invariably are. I only wish every family had a bottle—it would save much sickness and doctor bills.”—Joseph H. Ridgeway. “Feci Better Than for Five Year®.” Mr. James B. Taylor, Roberts, Ind., writes: “I am at the present time entirely well. I can eat anything I ever could. I took five bottles of Peruna, and feel better now than I have for five years. I have doctored with other doctors off and on for fifteen years, so I can recom mend your medicine very highly for stomach troubles. I take great pleasure in thanking you for your free advica and Peruna.”—James B. Taylor. “I Enjoy my Meal® as I Used to." Mr. J. W. Pritchard, Wolf Lake, Ind., writes: “ I am pleased to say that I have been cured of catarrh of the stomach by Pe- rona. I could hardly eat anything that agreed with me. Before I would get half through my meal my stomach would fill with gas causing me much distress and unpleasant feelings for an hour or two after each meal. But, thanks to your Peruna, I am now com pletely cured, and can eat anything I want to without any of the distressing symptoms. I can now enjoy my meals as I used to do, and it is all due to Dr. Hartman and his wonderful medicine, Peruna. “It has been one year since I was cured, and I am all O. K. yet, so I know I am cured.”—J. W. Pritchard. Dyspepsia is a very common phase of summer catarrh. A remedy that will cure catarrh of one location will cure it anywhere. Peruna cures catarrh wher ever located. That it is a prompt and permanent cure for catarrh of the stomach the above letters testify. I f you do not derive prompt and satis- Prof. L. J. Miller, late Professor of Chemistry and Botany of the High School of Ypsilanti, Mich., writes from 3327 N.
