Tk rrlantew le Popalatr aaaaf Is Bfatfe ot - Various -fttttr, ",! : statlerlnls. . . ., ...., '' , Prominent among the spring novel ties In lingerie is tho princess petti coat. It is a combination" of skirt and corset cover and is fitted care fully to the figure with-darts and searms. It does away -entirely with the objectionable waist band and 1b a most desirable garment to wear be neath the gowns of to-day, which, though they ripple and flare at the hem, fit as closely as ever over the hips and for some - distance below them. ' ' ' ' 1 , ' The new princess petticoats are a decided temptation to even the eco nomical woman accustomed to self denial. . , , . These princess petticoats are made of brocade, liberty satin and India silk, but perhaps the daintiest are of sheer linen lawn, lace insertions and wash ribbons. One extremely pretty model in filmy lawn shows the lace insertion arranged in a series of Van Dyke points, and the beading, through which pink wash ribbon is run, placed in perpendicular stripes. The skirt is cut to flare below , the knees and Is made with a double lace trimmed flounce and a graceful demi train. All the new petticoats are fitted to the form with special care. A number of the French models are shaped to the figure over the hips by having the material finely plaited. The flaring flounce, which starts at the knees, is invariably trimmed with lace frills and insertions. Sometimes it ia cut circular and then again it is straight and gathered.- . ! These skirt are always made with two flounces, and the under' flounce is generally trimmed -with-a plaited or gathered lace-edged frill. Much lace insertion U used as a trimming, and the clever joining of laces is a feature of this season's skirts. In heading the flounce which forms the lower part of the latest petticoats many novelties are introduced. Some show the flounce headed with merely a fine line of fancy eilk hemstitching. Others are decorated with exquisite hand embroidery, and then again, the heading of the flounce is defined by a dainty lattice work design, of wash ribbon, baby -width, run through lace beading. The majority of the elab orate petticoats this spring, are made with short trains. X. Y. Journal. TO CORRECT BA$HFULNESS.

Talk with j7oKM3Hd If a person is ill a id needs a medi cine is It not wise to get one that haa stood the test of time and has hun dreds of thousands of cures to Its credit? - A great many women who are IHtojr everything they hear of in the way of medicine, and this experimenting with unknown drugs Is a constant menace to their already impaired health. ' This seems to ns very unwise, for there are remedies which are no. ex periments and have been known yean and years to be doing only good. ' " Take for instance Lydia E. Pink- ' ham's Vegetable Compound ; for tltlrtjr years its record has' been one un broken chain of success. No medicine for female, ills the. world' has ever known has such a record for cures. It seems so strange that some people will take medicines about which they really know nothing, some of whleo migh t. be, and are, really harmful ; while on the other hand it is easily K roved that over one million women ave been restored to health by Lydia, E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. We have published in the news papers of the United States mora genuine testimonial letters than have ever been published in the interest of any other medicine All this should, and does, produce spirit of confidence in the hearts ot women which is difficult to dislodge, and when they are asked to take some thing else they say, " No, we want Lydia E. Pinkham s Vegetable Com pound, which has been tried, and never found wanting, whose reliability is established far beyond the expert- . mental stage." We have thousands of letters like tho following addressed to Mrs. Pinkham. showing that .. ' monthly Suffering la Al ways Cured by Lydia Em Pinkham' a Vegetable) Oompound, alao Baok aohe and Boaring-dowm palna. "I suffered untold atrony everjr month and could get no relief nntil 1 tried-your medicine; your letter of ad vice and a few bottles of Lydia EL Pinkham's Vegetable Compound have, made me the happiest woman alive. I shall bless you as long as I live." Miss Join Saul, Dover, Mich. . V Four years ago I had almost given up hope of ever being well again. I was afflicted with those dreadful head ache spells which would sometimes last three or four days. Also had backache, bearing-down pains, leacor rhcea, dizziness, and terrible pains at monthly periods, confining me to my bed. After, reading so many testi monials for Vour medicine, I concluded to try it. - i began to pick up after taking the first bottle, and have con tiuued to gain rapidly,, and now feel like a different woman. I can recom mend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound in the highest terms to all lok women." Miss Rosa Hkldes. 120 W, Cleveland Ave., Canton. O. Two Letters which Prove that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Will Remove Tumor and Oura Other Female Weaknessm ' Two years ago ' I was a great sufferer from womb trouble and pro fuse flowing each month, and tumors would form in . the womb. . 1 had four tumors In two years. 1 went through treatment with doctors, but they did me no good, and I thought 1 would nave to. resort to morpnine. ' The doctor said that all that could help me was to have an operation and have the womb removed, but 1 had heard of Mrs. Pinkham's medicine and decided to try it, and wrote for her advice, and after taking her Vegetable Compound the tumors were expelled and I began to get stronger . -right alone, and am as well as ever before. Can truly soy that I would never had gotten well had it not been for Lydia E. Pinkham's Compound." Maby A. Su hi,, Watsontown, Pa. . -. "After., following the directions given in your kind letter for the treat ment of leucorrhea, I can say that I have been entirely cured by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's remedies, and will gladly recommend, them to my friends." A. B. Davids, Binghamton, N. Y. Another Case of Womb, Kidney and Bladder Trouble Cured by Lydia Em Pinkham's Vegetable Compoundm Dka.r Friend Two years ago I had child-bed fever and womb trouble In Its worst form. For eight months after birth of babe I was not able to sit up. Dootors treated me, but with no help. I had bearing-down painR, burning in stomaeh, kidney and bladder trouble and my back was stiff and sore, the right ovary was badly affected and everything I ate distressed me, and there was a bad discharge. " I was confined to my bed when I wrote to you for advice and followed your directions faithfully, taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound, Liver Pills and using the Wash, and am now able to do the most of my housework. I believe I should have died if it had not been for your Com pound. I hope this letter may be the result of benefiting some other suffer -lng woman. I recommend your Com pound to every one." Mrs. MabV Vauoiin, Trimble, Pulaski Co., Ky.
