Mrs. Ka'.ston, in the March Ladies' Home Jour
nal. The first early blouses made in wash
materials for this spring are in p'que,
crash, drilling and the heavier cotton
and iinca fabrics, in white and colordi
A tew material for blouses new of
cour-e only for this purpose is poplin.
It cones in a lovely line of coloring?,
and with its rather heavy corus does
not require much triirmiin& beyond
p-aits.
The use ol ribbon as'a trimming and
a garniture 'for all kinds of gdwns
seems to have taken a new lease ol
fife, raid it is introduced in one way or
another upon countless gowns and
bodices.
Ifomespnn, which was so populai
during the past season, will be much
snore worn this spring. It Is a particu
larly nice material, being light in
weight and shedding the dust easily,
besides having most exceiient "staying
qualities." The new weaves show a
glossiness ef surface new in homespun.
For softness of lone the new colors
have neyer been surpassed. Ecru,
gauging from the palest biscuit shade
bids ftir to be more fashionable than
aver, which is high praisa indeed. In
cloth materials this coloring will make
up into the smartest possible kind of
tailor suits. lieally, after black, there
is nothing one can wear iu so many
diffeie-nt ways with so many kinds ol
blouses, hats, etc., as th3 varying
shades of tan. ecru aud biscuit.

Wanamaker's Advertising.
The Editor and Publisher.
John Wanamaker pays oyer $1,000
a day just for advertising his Philadel
phia store. He uses a page a day in
five daily new3 papers in that eity.
They are as follows : Press, $60,000 ;
Ledger, $60,000 ; Times, $50,000;
North America, $75,000 ; and Evening
Telegraph, $50,000. Up to a few
months ago Mr. Wanamaker was using
a page in the Record at the rate of
i!87,500 a year, which would have
made an annual expenditure of $382,-
500. When he wanted to renew his
advertising contract with the Record,
the publishers asked $25,000 more or
a total of $112,500. Mr. Wanamaker
refused to pay the amount, thinking
that no one else would pay that sum
rfor the page. The proposition was
made to Lit Brothers, who accepted
the contract without a moment's hesi
tation, and they are now paying the
enormous sum of $112,500 for the use
of the page for one year.

which is of equally great importance, is
that Peruna cures catarrh wherever

Catarrh is an American disease. Fully
one-half of the people are afflicted more
or less with it in eotne form. Previous
to the discovery of Peruna, catarrh was
considered well nigh incurable. Since
