Imitation Interests do not try to force

that general harmony prevails among

Gorgeous
Compositions
"Gorgeous" is aptly applied.
While the costumes are not "loud"
in color tones, there's a magnificent
elegance in the ensemble of fabric,
trimming and tailoring, that may
ap ropriately be termed as above.
T.iere's the evidence of much
thought in the designing, much care
in the malting, much ingenuity in
the draping, much originality in
the trimming, much newness in the
fabrics and much goodness in the
linings.
They've lately arrived, and they
are mostly one of a sort, especially
in the matter of cut. Wilkes-Barre
women appreciate this, for they
demand exclusiveness in their cos
tuming. All fairly priced some of
them as inexpensive as $11.98.
Women's
Neck Pieces
Fresh arrivals weekly keep the
stock always bright, interesting and
full of novelties. A little better
than you'll find elsewhere, and this
season we are making special ef
lorts toward originality and variety.
This, combined with right prices,
has the result to which we have
grown accustomed.
Our Glove
Showing
We present to vour attention
this week the perfected condition of
this always best showing. We
have all the new shades, that
match the spring fabric hues. The
skins are elastic and high-grade.

Nature makes the cures
after all.
Now and then she gets
into a tight place and needs
helping out.
Things get started in the
wrong direction.
Something is needed to
check disease and start the
system in the right direction
toward health.
Scott's Emulsion of Cod
liver Oil with hypophos

It strengthens the nerves,
feeds famished tissues, and

" In Union
There is Strength. "
The strength of every
human Being consists in the
union, the harmonious work

the human organism. This
strength can never be ob
tained if the blood is impure.
The blood goes to all parts.
Purify it, or there can be no
44 union" and therefore no
health or "strength."
Hood's Sarsapnrilla is (he standard
prescription for purification of tho
blood. It never disajipoints.
Eczema -"My daughter liail eczema
