HER EASTER HAT.
The hat she' been holding for Easter
Is built In a wonderful way.
The last cry of fashion's adornment
In truly surprising array
Thlrcuavvas JnTown.
Testerday" was clrctuday." Tf you
don't believe It then It's because you
were not In town about 11 o'clock in
the morning with all the rest of the
mothers and fathers sisters and broth-
era and unclea and aunts who -lined
the sidewalks watching the parade go
by. And who ever heard of missing a
circus parade that ever wonderful pro-
cession of red-coated bands awakening
the echoes with their martial music thu
Hons and tigers and all the other wild
animals in their gilt cages the elephants
and camels the monkles and ponies and
the rest of the funny bipeds and quad-
rupeds to say nothing of the tooting old
calliope bringing up the rear.
There la no use denying the (act that
when spring and a circus arrive simul-
taneously you might just as well give op
In the beginning the combination Is too
strong end you know from the very first
that you're going to that circus.
Why the minute you catch a glimpse of
the first elephant swinging down the'
street you develop the most Intense de-
sire for peanuts; you'd rather have pea-
nuts than anything else In all tne world
unless indeed it's pink lemonade.
Bo you buy your ticket and if you're
a real lover of children you gather a
bunch of them together and buy eight or
ten tickets. They may be green or red
or yellow not the children of course but
the tickets; It all depends upon the so-
cial status of the circus; then fully an
hour before the performance you loin th
procession to the great white tent
rather the tent that was once whiter You
arrive and you enter and then oh then
fur to hours or more this worrisome old
world outside Is forgotten.

Mr. Sigurd Hansen of thl city. "I suf-
fered wita womanly trouble and at
last was operated on.
X felt better for a time but oon 1 had
the same trouble as. before.
I had diasy spells and would turn
blind and almost fall over. I had pain
in my -4ck an aide and Iras not able
to wgrk.
Half the 'time I could not eat any
breakfast and I always felt weak and
bad a headache.
On day my husband got me a bottle
of Cardut and I tried it. I felt better so
I took some more.
Now I am well and fed fine. My doc-
tor says I am looking better than ever.
I have a good appetite and sleep well.
It is all due to Cardui. I only wish
every Buffering woman would try it.
They would soon feel as good as I do."
Tou may be -sure when Cardui will re-
lieve and cure such a serious case as
that' of Mr. Hansen that it will much
more quickly and certainly help those
women who have no serious symptoms
but are Just weak and ailing.
Are you?
Try it.
