Important to All Women Headers of This Paper Swamp-Root a Fine Medicine Thousands upon thousands of women have kidney or bladder trouble and n&rer suspect it. Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition they may cause the other organs to become diseased. You may suffer pain in the back, headache and loss of ambition. Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and may be despondent; it makes any one so. But hundreds of women claim that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health to the kidneys, proved to be just the remedy needed to overcome such conditions. Many send for a sample bottle to see what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, livar and bladder medicine will do for them. By enclosing ten cents to Dr. Kilmer A Co., Binghamton, N. Y., you may receive sample size bottle by parcel post. You can purchase medium and large size bottles at all drug stores.--Advertisement.

And its vogue is not surprising, since its possibilities are infinite and it is confined to no special material or to any particular costume. One sees it adapted to the tailored mode as well as to the fashions for evening wear. With the advent of cool days the tunic of kasha has made Its appearance, and It is ideal for street wear. As a rule the foundation Is made of black satin, but occasionally a few inches of velvet show below the hem of the tunic. When velvet Is employed it la also used as a trimming on the tunic. An Interesting model to exploit this com-; bination of materials is one that has a tunic of black kasha trimmed with narrow bands of French blue velvet and worn over a foundation slip bordered with velvet. Beige and brown are shades which have a special affinity for each other and are especially effective when there Is a contrast of texture as well as of i color. A striking instance of the charm of these colors when combined is shown in an attractive model. A pinafore tunic of beige kasha opens over a slip- of brown satin. Narrow bands of satin embroidered in gold trim the sleeves and pocket. With this is worn one of the new hats of brown satin simply trimmed with loops of ribbon. At the moment school and college girls' fashions hold the center of the fashion stage and lh their combination of practical qualities allied to an unobtrusive but youthful smartness they are appropriate to the years and to the status of their wearers. Nothing has yet been destgned that quite takes the place of a beautifully made, smartly cut frock of navy blue twill or serge whose simplicity Is as artful as it is Intriguing. This year there are a number of new versions of this old favorite, each one distinguished by details of marked individuality. Bits of bright color are cleverly Introduced, tiny metal buttons are skillfully employed, a feminine daintiness is added by finishing neck and sleeves with collars and cuffs of lin- Georgette Crepe Beaded in Red, Gold This beautiful tunic Is of navy georgette crepe beaded In red, gold and blue. It Is worn by a popular actrsss. Spanish Influence Is Feature of This Hat 1 gerie and lace, and a boyish aspect is given by scarfs and* ties of plaid or gayly striped silk. Next to the navy bLOe frock in popularity comes the plaid dress, which seems destined for a decided vogue and which is especially adapted to the needs of the school and coHege girl. Pajamas With Kimono to Match, Late Style IB a recent exhibition of negligees and lingerie a gay little sign, done In Chinese letters, called attention to the Influence that the Orient has had upon fashions for leisure hours. And to emphasize this fact there were shown the most alluring new models. These consisted of pajamas with a kimono to match. The upper part of the pajamas was cut on the lines of a Chinese coat, -reaching just to the knees and fun it>roidered in bright colors. Fashioned of black satin, which brings out in striking relief the vivid flower designs, they have sashes of the same brilliant shade that lines the kimono. One exceedingly beautiful one 4s lined with crepe de chine, in color a rich tone of Chinese red. The flowers that decorate both the coat and the kimono are in shades ranging from a taint coral to a brilliant flame. : Equally stunning Is another costume, also of black sntln, but exquisitely embroidered in silver. On this the sash of satin is fringed with silver. Nothing more unusual or smarter ha9 been introduced in many a day and the girl who wishes to be ahead where fashion is concerned will speedily provide herself with the latest thing in lounging attire. Hard Otherwise to Explain Sergeant?* Demise* llr. O. Rothfleld, author of "Women of India," I.C.S., relates the (ol. lowing remarkable incident, which 1M does not attempt to explain: The Incident concerned a smart young Sikh sergeant of the mounted police, a strapping fellow, with a great broad chest, the best wrestler on the force. The other part was played by a Mussulman fakir. He was an old, old man with a white beard, of quite unknown age, who beyond the memory of the living generation had crouched on a mat at a corner where two sunken lanes meet. The scene was a village, the poor successor at a dead city of palaces and of mosques, not far north of Bombay. In the midday lieat, under the glare of the sun, his eyes half shut, vaguely thinking of home and dinner, the sergeant came cantering loosely along, with the reins slipping through his fingers. An overhanging bank hid the fakir at the corner, and the pony sliled before the rider saw htm. The sergeant all but went over the horse's head, and pulled himself back into the saddle with an effort. He was angry, of coarse, as any one would have been. It is not nice to be brought up with a Jerk and feel a fodl, when one is hot and tired and hungry and thirsty. So he cursed the fakir, and threatened to run him in as A nuisance. He was not respectful, certainly, and he was an unbeliever--a Sikh, not a Mussulrqan. But this does not excuse the old fakir. He--the old fraud --lifted himself up In turn and cursed and cursed in a solemn, dignified way, chanting the words like a communication. And he ended with an imprecation that the officer should die in the sixth month after five months of wasting. There was little real Jauntiness left in the sergeant when the old man was done. But he carried It off well enough and laughed about it that evening with hlB friends at headquarter*, and several times he laughed again during the next week. But It is a fact that he began to lose weight in the second week, that his cheeks fell in and a cough shook him, that he waa spitting blood within three months, and that he was dead within six. Did he die of a suggested fear? and if so, why should it take that form exactly? Or was it really the old fakir's fixed thought, his persistent hate, that held and shook him across space and across time? Only the old man could have answered, and he was silent. OF. WMJFN Militant German Woman "German courts are not very considerate of women who seek damages for wounded affections, consequently a young woman at Mannheim whose sweetheart had treated her slightingly and told her his parents objected to their betrothal, consulted the mother of her halting fiance and was told by the mother that he had lied tp her. The young woman did not consult a lawyer, but Invited her former sweetheart to take a stroll with her. Sl>« awaited her opportunity and felled her recreant lover with a blow. The® she boxed his ears and beat him until the blood ran from his nose. Spectators of the affair rescued the chap ond held the Irate woman while he made his es- 'cape. The Mannheim newspapers In warning recreant lovers to beware of jilting also Informed them that heroines still live in Germany. The Spanish influence pfi< dominates in this toreador sailor of black velvet with ostrich pompons as a trim. Ensemble Costume A most striking costume consists of a dress of red bengallne trimmed with touches of black, and worn under a coat of plain wool In which green, red and black are the dominant colors. Collar and cuffs are of gray fur. Accessories Can Make or Mar Chic Costume "A lady Is known," goes the old saying, "by her shoes and her pockethandkerchiefs." And certainly care In buying the accessories of dress does, to a very great extent, insure a wellgroomed appearance, «ays a writer In the Kansas City Star. Care in buying accessories does not mean the expenditure of much time, money and energy In selecting all the gewgaws with which one can load oneself. Indeed the old rule for achieving a well-dressed appearance Is still apropos--"Go to the mirror after yon are dressed, and see what you can take off." Accessories--hats, gloves, fans, handkerchiefs, beads, bracelets, veils--may be counted upon either to add much to or detract much from the general effect; they are seldom neutral. So they must be tastefully selected, and, above all. they must not be Indiscriminately worn. Now, a hat is such an Important adjunct to the costume that it is almost more than a mere accessory. It is Important both as a frame to the face and in Its relationahip to the rest of the costume. If „you wear a plain, tailored dress or suit, for instance, the sailor hat or some other tailored shape should be chosen. If your costume is more elaborate, you may allow yourself somewhat fancier headgear. In general, It Is well, when you select a hat, to wear the costume with which you intend to use It. Veils, like hats, must be appropriate to the costume; for, though beautiful and becoming when happily chosen, a veil often is out of place. The rule which should be your guide in knowing when you should wear a veil is this: Wear It only when there's a logical reason for doing so, such as to add to the beauty of the hat, or to protect the face. Gloves, again, should be in harmony with the rest of the costume. Do not wear kid gloves with a lingerie dress, or, even worse, silk gloves with furs. Dainty handkerchiefs, too, may be selected to match the costume, though plain white linen handkerchiefs of excellent quality are always in good taste. ^ Hints on Packing Away Clothes and Draperies Summer clothes and house draperies should be stored clean and unstarched, for starch will cause the material to roc. The best plan, after white garments or draperies are washed and well dried is to store them In a pillowcase or linen bag to keep them free from soU. It is a question whether inexpensive and somewhat faded cotton frocks are worth keeping from one season to another. They might be cut down for rompers and overalls for the children. No gown should be stored with lace collars the least bit soiled. Such lace will look far more soiled when brought to light again, and in the meantime the dirt seems to wear in. powdered magnesia or fuller's earth will often work wonders with soilod lace, but the substance should be allowed to remain two or three days before being brushed away. If rugs are to be put away and replaced by heavier articles for the winter remember that no rug or carpel, should ever be folded, bat roiled. The marks made by folding carpets and rugs. Instead of carefully rolling them, take a long time to disappear, snd they often become pernmncjM^v* < Bore* "Once a bore, always a bore," says Irving Cobb in Hearst's International "When a man speaks of himself, Invariably he Is Interested, for he has what to him Is the most fascinating topic on earth; but how rarely does he succeed in being Interesting to the audience! Take the average confirmed egotist, whether he be an after-dinner speaker, a chronic candidate for office or a mere lay worker, and harken to him as he studs bis conversation with capital I's, planting them in thicker and ever thicker as he goes along, and what do we get? A mental picture of a picket fence extending all the way around a vacant lot--that's what we get." Eagles Fight to Death Capt. Hurley Boyd of the fishing steamer Maud J., In port here, reports that when ten miles east of Five Fathom Bank lightship he saw the most exciting air battle of his 20 years' experience as a skipper, says the New York Times. Two eagles, lie said, fought for a big eel, and one of the eagles was killed and the other so badly wounded that It could hardly fly beyond the reach of the steamer, which was stopped long enough to pick up the eel, which, Captain Boyd said, weighed over eight pounds. The dead bald eagle, he said, measured ten feet from tip to tip of wings. Belts Wide leather belts are very smart. They are set low and compete for favor with the beltless sheath gown. They come in suede or smooth leather, In black or gay colors, and have figured prominently In the latest fashion openings. Their revival, after a long, long period of absence, furnished one of the surprises and successes of the new season. _ Easy Cleaning Cloths Take one quart of water and add t& this four tablespoonfuls of kerosene and two drams of oil of eucalyptus.
