and by constantly falling to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it In
curable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease and
thorefore requires constitutional treat
ment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manu
factured by F. J. Cheney & Co., To
ledo, Ohio, Is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken inter
nally In doses from 10 drops to a tea-
spoonful. It acts directly on the

Because there is no other windmill outfit that will com
pare with the STAR. Not only will it furnish plenty of
pure water for domestic purposes, but it will maintain
a pressure for use in case of fire, thus lowering your in
surance rate.
This windmil outfit will pump plenty of
water for your stock and for sprinkling
purposes. Many farmers use them for
irrigating. Galvanized after making ev
ery part thoroughly coated, no part can
rust. Galvanized Bolts, Double nutted,
can't get loose and rattle. Ball bearings
in the turn-table. Turns freely in the
wind.
Ball Bearing thrust in the wheel, runs in
lightest wind. Least possible amount of
power absorbed by friction. Greatest
possible amount of power reserved to
perform the work to be done.
Weight Regulators-always the same. Do
not vary with age and temperature as
does a spring regulator.
All Star outfits should be equipped with Myer's

Rebelling: Against Dame Fashion.
Women sometimes adopt a fashion,
or a change of an existing fashion,
often a detail of the - costume, for uo
other apparent reason save that it is a
change something new. They have
been comfortable for a period with a
certain fashion. Then Paris dress
makers, because they must hive new
details to sell their gowns, issue an
edict changing the styles. American
dressmakers and manufacturers of
women's flue gowns fall in with the
money-making change and behold we
have a new fashion. Many times it
ins't as comfortable or as practicable
as the old one, but it is new, therefore
the woman must have it.
Tune was when she followed a now
style blindly and retained it though
she suffered incouveniouce Irotu it,
But more receutly she has Bsserted
her independence and discarded styles
which were not comfortable and gone
back to the formei more practicable
ones.
An interesting recent example of
this is the rebellion against the long
sleeve. For several seasons the short
sleeve was worn by women, who
found it comfortable, sightly aud in
every respect a desirable fashion.
Paris says this year that the sleeve
mnst be long, even to the back of the
hand and must fit the arm tiuhtlv.
The American makers of waists hailed
this with delight. It meant some'
thing new. So did the American
dressmakers. They advised long
sleeves and made them very long.
ant already the indications are
strong that the long sleeve is doomed.
women are outline it uncomfortable
after the short sleeve, even for even
kg wear, and will undoubtedly revert
in the early spring to the short sleeve.

Ambition, Persistency and Success.

Drink Talk
There is hardly a spot inside of the
tropic zone where tea or coffee cannot
be grown, possibly barring the Sahara
Desert. So it is natural to suooose that
there are a hundred different dualities
of teas and coffees.
It is a matter of vour personal taste
as to what suits you best. In Japan the
the natives brew tea that Americans
would not care to drink vou would
probably call it "vile stuff."
I he way to find tea or coffee that is
just exactly what you like is to keep
trying amerent brands until you find
yours.
Our understanding of the tea and cof
fee situation has made it possible for us
to select a number of grades that pretty
nearly cover the whole scale of variation
in taste.
We can just about cuarantee to pive
you the finest "cup" you ever tasted if
you will sample a few of our brands.
