Heart
Failure
t eeea
Of course
the heart fails to act
when a man dies,
but "Heart Failure," so called, nine
times out of ten is caused by Uric
Acid in the blood which the Kidneys
fail to resiovc, and which corrodes
the heart until it becomes unable to
perform its functions.
Health Officers in many cities very
properly refuse to accept "Heart Fail
ure," as a cause of death. It fa fre
quently a sign of ignorance in the
physician, or may bt given to cover
up the real cause.
A Medicine with 20 Years of
. . Success behind it . .
will remove the poisonous Uric Acid
by putting the Kidneys in a healthy
condition so that they will naturally
eliminate it.

The woman who wants vases, but
who has not the vase fund of tho mi
kado, will do well to line her purse
with a fow dollars and visit a flrat
class Japanese art store, not the sort,
however, where all tho Japanese goods
are of American manufacture. If the
art emporium is visited, let her ask to
see some banko ware, commonly a
grayish pollety with nights of storks,
sprays of chrysanthemums or a maple
leaf decoration, and an additional
charm tho numerous Imprints of tho
potter's thumb. Vases of this ware ate
to be found in all sizes and shapes and
at all prices, many of those costing
but a few cents being veritable works
of art. Vases of the Tokonabo ware,
with the scaly sun snake and fierce war
dragon winding about them, are to bo
had in all sizes and forms. A large
and handsome specimen ot this ware
can be had for S3. For the hearth or
for corners on the floor where a mass
of bloom 1b desired, and where a non
upsetablo vase Is required, these are
admirable.

Tho ring was too loose for Its owacr,

In olden days the bridesmaids were
supposed to look after the bride's pe
cuniary Interest. Thus, at the church
porch, when the bridegroom produced
the ring and other articles relating to
his marriage, tho chief bridesmaid took
charge of tho "dow purse," which was
publicly given to tho bride as an In
stallment of her pin money. Horace
Walpole, writing to Miss Berry, In the
year 1791, speaks of the dow purse as
a thing of the past, and writes as fol
lows: "Our wedding Is over very properly,
though wlfit little ceremony, and noth
ing of ancient fashion, but two brides
maids. The endowing purse, I believe,
has been left off since the broad pieces
were called In and melted down."
It has been pointed out, however,
that a survival of this usage Is revived
In Cumberalud. The bridegroom pro
vides himself with gold and crown
plecea, and when the service reaches
the point, "with all my worldly goods
I thee endow," he takes the money,
hands the cleigyman his fee, and pours
tho rest Into a handkerchief which !he
bridesmaid holds for tho bride. In
Scotland the bridesmaid Is popularly
known as tho "beBt moid," and one of
her principal duties was to convey tl
btide's presents on the wedding to ho
futuro home. The first article gener
ally taken Into the house was n vebsol
of salt, a portion of which was
sprinkled over tho floor, as a protection
against tho "evil eye." She also at
tended tho bride when Kite called on
