The reason La France shoes (or women are com fortable is that they are made that way. If you had a pair of gloves which were full of ridges of superfluous leather, you know they would hurt you and look bacHy but that is the way many shoes are made. In La France Shoes the seams are even and smooth like those of a glove, and there are no inside ridges of leather to hurt or chafe your feet. Therefore,they have a comfortable,glove like feeling, and for the same reason they fit beautifully and always present whether new’ or old—a neat, graceful and beautiful appearance.

Its purposes are wholly philan thropic. Tills sanatorium Is a model ol Its kind. For curative effect and for in spiring outlook its location is unexcelled. Its present capacity is fifty-five pa tients. The completed plant would pro vide for one hundred. The cost of com pleting it would be comparatively small. Money is wanted for tills, and for aiding needy patients. An endowment fund of 1500,000 is greatly needed. For further in formation write to the secretary, Augus ta. Maine.

No Sufferer of Kidney Trouble Should Leave If Untried. Tlvt ilio readers in' tins paper ap prc-i.ie advice when given in good faitl: is plainly demonstrated by the fact that one well-known locitl phar macy supplied the ingredients for the "vegetable prescription" many times within the past two weeks. The an nouncement of this simple, harmless mixture has certainly accomplished much in reducing the great many cases of kidney complaint and rheu matism here, relieving pain and mis ery, especially among the older popu lation, who are always suffering more or less with bladder and urinary trou bles, backache and particularly rheu matism. Another well-known druggist asks us to continue tile announcement of tile prescription. It is doing so much ii al good here, in* continues, liiat it would be a crime not to do so. it can not lie repeated too often, and further states many cases of remarkable cures wrought. The following is tin* prescription, of simple ingredients, making a harm less, inexpensive compound, which an;, person can prepare by shaking well in a iiott!•*: I'luid Kxtract Dan delion, one-half ounce; Compound Kaig tii, oin ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Any lirst c ass drugstore will sell this small amount of each ingredient, and the dose for adults is one teaspoonl'ul to be taken after each meal and again at bedtime. There is enough litre to last for one week, if taken according to directions, (lood results will be apparent from tin* lirst few doses.
