In midsummer often come the vex
ed question to what to wear, the
heat is almost intolerable and yet the
holiday season is at its height. Sim
ple gowns made in shirt waist style
suit a great number of occasions and
are always in demand for midsummer
wear. They are cool and comfortable,
at the same time they are stylish and
attractive and can be made from any
material.
No feature of the season is more
charming or more generally becoming
than the pretty little boleros which
are seen in such a variety of materials
and styles.
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.

•*Build® »p the System." ^
Hon. Joseph H. 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.

Prof. L. J. Miller, late Professor of Chemistry and Botany of the High School
of Ypsilanti, Mich., writes from 3327 N. Clark Street, Chicago, HI., as follows:
“As several of my friends have spoken to me of the favorable results obtained
through the use of Peruna, especially in cases of catarrh, I examined it most factory results from the use of Peruna,
