Easter Frocks
We'll endeavor to tell you
about them, but the best way is to
come and see them.
The new comers have been ar
riving daily for weeks past. You
ivill notice particularly that the
gowns you see hero are not to be
seen elsewhere. That feature of
exclusiveness we push very far
farther than any one else we know
of. We get first pick usually, and
,ise the privilege mercilessly. The
esults are shown in the collection.
The Fashion present for us, and
juture for you discloses some
smart gowns, the certain finishes
and lesser details of which will
mark them in the eyes of the so
phisticated, as being "all right."
"Swell" is to common a word for
inch supreme and dainty elegance.
Venetian Cloths, French Poplins,
French Broadcloths, Covert Mix
:ure, Cheviot Serges are leaders in
this season's fabrics. Used last
season? Oh yes, but even more
popular this, and improved in ap
pearance and colorings.
' But there is no bond of sympa
thy between last Spring's and this
spring's styles there is a radical
leparture. The overskirt is a
jrominent feature. It may be onlv
i sham (for the purpose of reducing
weight), but the overskirt effect
must be there.

tiOYEKKOIt T. 0. FLETCIIEH, OF MISSOURI.
Hon. Thomas C. Fletcher, the noted
War Governor of the State of Mis
souri, Is a great friend of Pe-ru-na.
He writes:
The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company, Columbus, Ohio;
Gentlemen For years I have been
mulcted with chronic catarrh, which
has gone through my whole system,
nnd no one knows the torture and mis
ery 1 have passed through. My doctor
has prescribed various remedies, and I
have never found any relief until I
was persuaded by a friend to use Dr.
Hartman's Pe-ru-na. After the use of
one bottle I feel like n new man. It
also cured me of a dropping 1 bad In
my throat, and built my system up
generally. To those who are suffer
ing with catarrh I take pleasure in
recommending your grcnt medicine.
Very respectively,
Thomas C. Fletcher.
Catarrh In Its various forms is rapid
ly becoming a national curse. An un
doubted remedy has been discovered by
Dr. Hnrtmun. This remedy lias been
thoroughly tested during the past
forty years. Prominent men have come
to know of Rs virtues and are making
public utterances on the subject. To
save the country we must save the
people. To save the peViple we must
protect them from disease. The dis
ease that Is at once the most preval
ent and stubborn of cure Is catarrh.
Miss Minute Armstrong, the author of
"The Modern Evil," and a well-known
newspaper woman of New York eltv,
wiites the following letter to Dr. Hart
man :

the church of which Mr. Robi rts Is a

Dr. S. B. Hurtman, Columbus, Ohio:
For an overworked brain and ner
vous prostration Pe-ru-na is. invalu
able, and for a general tonic it hns
no equal. In December, ISM, while
connected with the St. Paul Press, I
was taken violently 111 with cerebro
spinal meningitis, and for two months
my physicians' had but slight hopes of
my recovery. When
I began to conva
lesce they told me
I must have abso
lute rest for two
years, for If I re
sumed my literary
labors before that
time I would cither
die or go Insane. A
Minnie Armstrong, friend Induced me
to try Pe-ru-na, and, to my sur
prise, before I had linlshed taking
one bottle I began to grow strong
er and sleep better nights. I con
tinued tuklng Pe-ru-na right along,
until, at the expiration of three months,
I was able to resume iny labors on
The Press, and completed a novel upon
which I was engaged when taken ill;
went to the World's Fair as newspaper
correspondent and as one of the lady
representatives, and neither "died nor
went insane," as my physicians pre
dicted. I have continued writing every
day since and am In perfect health,
entirely free from all nervous com
plaints, und sleep well. I cannot sp?ak
too highly of Pe-ru-na. for n tired,
worn-out brain, and insomnia and ner
vous prostration,
Minnie 1,. Armstrong.
