But women who'know themselves have learned that head ache remedies and beautifier s only .cover the trouble; but do not .dislodge it. What is needed is a remedy to move the bowels and stir up the torpid liver. Aft ever-increasing number of sensible women take a small dose of a combination of simple laxative herbs, with, pepsin known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and sold by druggists ui&er that name. ' It will save a woman from the habitual use of headache remedies, akin lotions and similar makeshifts. Once the bowel are emptied and regulated, the headache and the , pimples and blotches disappear. It is the rational, natural method. A bottle of Syrup Pepsin lasts a family a long time, and all will find use for it from time to time. Thoughtful people are never without it in the bouse. i Tha druggist will refund yout money U it tail to do as promised.

"Watch Your Feet" - Bianfe Storos Once Ubon a Time the Prettiest; Clothes Came Only in Regular Sizes Today the Smart Modes May Be Found' Here in Extra Sizes TIME was when women who required a , suit or fr&ck larger than 44, oca skirt . belt larger than 33, had to accept rather shapeless, uninteresting styles, made with little regard for anything save size. Yet, the woman who requires these larger sizes t is the very, one who wishes most for a well tailored frock, who most carefully selects this line in becoming silhouette. ; WE knew this, and in placing orders for new modes, on each buying trip haVe evolved the smart measurements, after which clothes were, ordered drafted, modes which were especially designed with regard to slenderizing lines and the clever placing of ornamentation. Many of these new styles ae on display now and many more arrive each day, quite as inter esting from a style viewpoint as those of fered in the smaller sizes.
