At no other season of the year, perhaps, does the fashionable wo man devote so much time and thought to the selection of head gear as wheu Spring is dawning and new gowns are the order of the day. There is a fascination in the Easter hat or bonnet, and ev ery woman will appreciate the smart modes illustrated in the March Delineator. These are for the most part of foliage and .flow ers and worthy examples of the milliuer's art. The flowers used in adorning the new Spring hats are small and in almost every in stance, natural in color. The fav orite decorations this season is the delicate edelweiss or snow flower. SOMETHING THAT WILL DO YOU GOOD. We know of no way in which we can be of more service to our readers than to tell them of something that will be of real good to them. For this reason we want to acquaint them with what we consider one of the very best remedies on the mar ket for coughs, colds, and that alarming complaint, croup. We refer to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. We have used it with good results in our family so long that it has be come a household necessity. By its prompt use we haven't any doubt but that it has time and . again prevented croup. The testimony is given upon otfr own experience, and we suggest that our readers, es pecially those who have small children, always keep it in their homes as a safeguard against croup. Camden ( S.
