The woolen fabrics of early spring have now
given place to the cool, dressy linen and cotton weaves
that come with each succeeding summer.
This season's productions are marked chiefly by
a common sense study of comfort and thrift, which
will prove most gratifying to thoughtful women. Yet
appearance and effect have not been lost sight of for
one moment, and the swellest of swell women will
find enough style in the suits we are now showing
to satisfy their utmost longings.
As a Matter of Economy
It is to the interest of every woman to see these suits.
You couldn't begin to have them made for the money
we are asking for perfectly finished, ready to wear
gowns, nor could you improve on the making or
styles, no matter what price you are willing to pay.
We ought to know what we're talking about when we
make such an assertion. We do know, aud it's be
cause of this fact that we almost insist on your com
ing in to look over our

shown In exquisite braided effects,
while some have the light, airy look

Linen Suits

after his tongue." Ho said:
"You notice there Is a tendency
among the people of the present day
to get back to the one tongue. Some
peoplo seem to think that the day will
never come, but you can not tell how
soon the Lord mny change the people
bnck to the present tongue when every
one will speak alike. I thoroughly
believe that we are drifting toward the
time when every one will speak the
same language. There aro so many
different kinds of tongues In the world
today, that our time Mill only tillow
us to speak a few. There Is the evil,
slanderous tongue which is a terrible
thing. The slanderous tongue Is ai
fire a world of Iniquity; and the
tongue has a mighty Influence. Death
and life ore In the power of the
tongue. There la the lying tongue.
How easy It wns for us to tell a He
In preference to telling the truth.
There Is the double twisted tongue,' a
tongue that gets a story all twisted up
so that you do not know when they
aro telling you correct stories, and
the swivel tongue, the tattling tongue.
All these with many others are unre
generate tongues. But when the
whole man becomes new In Christ Je
sus then he begins to pray, 'set a
wntoh O, Lord, beforo my mouth.
Keep, keep the door of my lip'." The
seating capacity of the ch'utch was
overtaxed to such an extent that chairs
had to be placed for those who came
In late.

Spoclnl Disease.
It Is well known among medical men
that certain diseases are more read
ily developed In certain occupations
than In others. That each occupation
ha its attendant physical weakness.
Engineers, railroad men and similar
occupations suffer mostly from kid
ney troubles and men who are often
exposed to the weather suffer from
rheumatism, while clerks nnd profes
sional men, In fact the army of peo
ple whoso business keeps them Indoors,
are oftentimes great sufferers from
piles and constipation. In this connec
tion tho following letter Is of Interest
to peoplo whose occupation will not al

Mr. A. F. Calhoun, notary public and
Jeweler and watchmaker, of Clrclcvllle,
AV. Ara., writes as follows:
I had been a sovere sufferer from
piles for years and hod tried many
remedies with but little benefit, when
about three years ago I saw the Pyr
amid Pile Cure advertised and sent
for It.
I was badly afflicted when I got
them, but after only two applications
the piles disappeared and from that
day to this I have never felt a symp
tom of the disease.
I feel that I cannot recommend them
too highly to sufferers from piles.
The Pyramid Pile Cure Is free from

PARASITES or DISEASE.
Curious Mnlndlcs Traced to Insec
tivorous Activity.
From Popular Science Monthly.
Texas fever, an Infectious disease of
cattle which prevails as an endemic
disease in certain regions in the south
ern portion of the United States, has
been shown, by the researches of The
obald Smith and other bacteriologists
belonging to tho Agricultural depart
ment to be due to a blood parasite be
longing to the protozoa. In this dis
ease the tick has been shown to be the
intermediate host of the parablte. Tho
ticks which fall from Infected animals
give birth to a numerous progeny In
the pastures frequented by them, and
these young ticks attach themselves
to other animals which subsequently
feed In the same pastures and trans
mit to them the fatal Infection.
The tsetse fly disease of Africa has
recently been shown by the researches
of Bruce to be due to a flagellate In
fusorium which Is found In the blood
of Infected animals. This dlstase Is
fatal to the ox, the horse, the dog.
tho sheep, and tho ass, but not to the
Indigenous wild animals In the re
searches of Bruce indicate that the fly
acts ns a carder of the parasite from
diseased to healthy animals. He has
shown by experiment that after feed
ing on the blood of an Infected animal
the tsetse fly can communicate the
disease to a. healthy animal by its
bite. After a short period of Incuba
tion the haematazoa appear In the
blood concurrently with the develop
ment of fever, and followed by rapidly
progressive anaomla, dropsy and
death.
The po-called "surra disease," which
prevails in certain portions of India,
Is believed to be due to a similar par
asitic protozoan. According to Lln
gard, this infusorium exists as an In
noouous parasite In the blood of rats
In India. It is not pathogenic, or only
feebly ro, for the native ox of India,
but gives rise to a fatal Infectious dis
ease In horses, dogs and camels.
