To Study Fashions.
Now where is there a better oppor
tunity to study fashionable attfre
than at a church wedding wrich
brings out every variety of new cos
tumes. from the elaborate elegance
of the bridal party to the sn^rt new
tailored suits of girls friends out qf
town.
Satin and Chiffon.
Satin and chiffon have vied with
one another' for first place in the ftv-
vor of spring brides. Marly ip the
season satin ruled, but later gowns
have more often been of chiffon and
lace made up with elingng satin lin
ings. Where the gown is of satin,
shirts are quite plain or haye what
trary to the custom this spring this
bride wore a great quantity of mag
nificent jewelry, including a dlmqnd
collar, a long rope of matched pearls,
and a coiffure ornament in diamonds.
Spider Cloth.
It’s a long way from satin at many
dollars a yard to snider cloth .'it 50
cents, but the latter In all white
would make up charmingly for a nret-
tv unpretentious bridal gown that
could he worn for anv festive occas
ion. or be equally suitable in white
or in the pretty printings thjjt come
in all ( sorts of delicate colacji. for
girlish*frocks for graduation wear or
for summer dances.
Foulards Very Fashionable.
Foulards are once more very fash
ionable. and no gown a woman can
possess lasts better or is suitable for
so many different uses. I/ml and
Taylor is making a great showing
of especially excfcisive patterns In
foulards. Coin spots of various
sizes, some larger than dimes, some
in clust rs or line effects constitute

OTHER REMARKABLE CURES.
Mr. Jacob L. Davis, Galena, Stone county, Mo., writes: “I have been in had
health for thirty-seven years, and after taking i we!ve bottles of your Peruna I
am cured.” Mr. A. E. Kidd, well known architect, .'>177 .Jefferson Ave., Chicago,
ill., writes: “I have had catarrh over half of my life. ! tried nearly every catarrh
remedy advertis'd, beside a great many pliy-ieians’ treatments, all of which
failed. I had heard and read of Peruna and decided to try it. 1 have taken seven
bottles of it and t\eigh 17'J pounds.”
A SINCERE RECOMMENDATION.
Mr. D. C. Prosser, ft. F. 1). No. 2, Shelby, Oceana Co.. Mich.^writes: “Two years
ago 1 was badly alllicted with catarrh of the stomach. 1 bad bad a run of typhoid
fever, was very depleted. 1 could find nothing I could eat without causing dis
tress and sour stoma'-h. Finally I came to the conclusion that I had catarrh of
the stomach and seeing Peruna advertised, began to take it. !t helped me soon*
and after inking three or four bottles 1 was entirely cured of stomach trouble,

A Cure For Spring Fever.
A Lawrence (M.ixs.i man has found
a new cut;' for that spring tired feel
Ing, says the Kennebec (Me.) Journal.
He came down to visit a friend in
Oxford all tired out. without appetite,
unable to sleep and nerves all on edge.
He worked hard a week in his host’s
vawmlll and then went home a new
man, able to sleep ten hours a night
and hungry as a bear at each meal.
The ''Pure’ , Mongrel.
(Washington Star.)
The Princess de Montglyon. whose
collies were a features of the winter’s
kennel shows, was explaining to a
young woman journalist her method
of breeding dogs.
“But vou” the princess said, “are
somewhat ignorant of dog breeding,
arn you not?’*
“I am.’’ the interviewer confessed.
“You a#e like.” said the princess,
•'that amusing Mark Twain, who
bought in the west a ‘genuine Mexi
can plug.’ thinking the phrase ineapt
‘thoroughbred Arabian.’ or something
of that sort. You are like a young
friend of mine who said one evening
to her husband:
“‘Oh. .lack. I have such a surprise
for you! Look at this nerfectly
sweet little dog I bought this morn
ing. Only $25. and the man guaran
teed him to he a pure mongrel.’ ”
Obey the Text.
In the Iowa town where Mark
Twain used to reside, the following
storv of him is occasionally handed
about, says Lippincott’s.
One morning when he was busily
at work with the request that he
take a walk, the acquaintance having
an errand on a pleasant country road.
“How far it it?” temporized Mark
Twain.
“Oh. about a mile.” replied the
friend.
Instantly the humorist gathered
his papers together, laid them aside
and prepared to leave his desk.
“Of course I will go.” he announc
ed. "the Bible says I must.”
“\Y!hy. what in the world has tho
Bible got to do with it?” asked the
puzzled friend.
"It distinctly commands.” answer
ed Mr. Clemens, “‘if a man ask thee
to go with him a mile, go with him.

He Did Not Need His Teeth.
An officer of the army tells how
Major Whipple, of the Second Massa
chusetts regiment, a veteran of the
civil war. hastened to Washington
when the Spanish war broke out, and
offered his services to President Mc
Kinley.
But all officers, as well as men. had
to undergo a physical examination,
and it was stated to Major Whipple
that he would have to place himself
in the hands of the examining doc
tors at Worcetser.
Now, Major Whipple, while a man
of great bodily strength and perfect
health and activity, was a little defi
cient in the matter of teeth. An ex
amining surgeon proposed to exclude
him on that account.
Whereupon the major, waxed
.vorth. “Damn It. gentlemen,” said
he. “I’m going to Cuba to shoot
Spaniards, not to eat ’em!”
The major went!

those that barely reach the waist ty

Goods with printed or woven bor-

FROM HIDE TO RETAILER
EDICOTT-JOHNSON CO.
BETTER SHOES
FOR LESS nONEY
\<,
Since the conception of our now method of selling Shoes direct from raw hide to retailer,
our strongest claim has been that we produce better Shoes for less money, or superiority in
both quality and price. No Shoe concern in the world has equal facilities for controling these
two essentials. There is Just one big reason why we are growing faster than any other Shoe
house ever grew. That is because the hide to retailer proposition is wholely different and we
can demonstrate our claims with good substantial reasons that are different and that are
backed up by facts.
