Raincoats Are Colorful This Season York Sept. 24 —<U.R>— Evidence of a more colorful raincoat season S< * in I "th domestic and imported sportswear collections for fall. The 16 f° lini d gayer colors in raincoats has been noticed for some seasons ‘tot been so marked as this rear. Especially in the French I**’' oats is <' olor P«f» moun,> “ uch Blludeß “ H (lark alld ll > ?ht red , tans w “ h » ue<l, “ oa .

.>i one of the most important devefopments abroad, and one which it ls believed will receive favoruMe acceptance when introduced to the doXie market in the early spring of n ,, x t year, is the use ot rubberized "ilk pongee for the lightweight rain,oat Other fabrics that are noted in fall ' collections include crepes de Chine Japanese silk, plaided taffeta, leatherette, velveteen, gabardine and French suede. • There is an effort abroad to popularize the ensemble in rainwear, by offering bats in matching colors and fabrics. So far the buying of separate coats is in more favor, since most women prefer to don raincoats over their everyday costumes. As to models, the trench coat type remains outstanding, especially in such fabrics as French suede, gabardine and leatherette. A washable cotton material with a suede finish, customarily found in gloves, has been adopted for trench coats in pastel shades, and has been well received because it is not strictly confined to rainwear. On the whole, raincoat fashions retain simple, practical lines, in spite, of the feeling for more elaboration which both English and French designers are advancing.

Stomach Gas Made - Heart Action Poor Indigestion and Weak Kidneys Made Life Miserable. Now Well. There is good news for victims of indigestion, kidney pains and rheumatism in the recovery of health made by Jerry Nash, well-known farmer, Route 5, Elkhart, Ind. He tells about it, as follows: “For four years, my health has been so poor that I should not have tried to work at all. Everything I tried to eat seemed to sour and cause intense pain. I would bloat so with gas that I felt I was smothering, and my heart would act so irregular I often fainted away. I was constipated, bilious and dizzy. My back ached fearfully, and between kidney disturbance and the smothering spells, sleep was almost impossible. I feel very grateful to Viuna for bringing me out of -«dl this trouble. From the first bottle 1 have never had a smothering spell or poor heart action. My kidneys soon began working fine, the back-ache is all gone, and 1 am rid of constipation and biliousness. I am getting the best sleep I have had for years, and, best of all, I am eating hearty meals without a trace of gas or indigestion. If anyone wants to know a real remedy for troubles like I had, let them ask me and 1 will gladly tell them about Viuna." Viuna acts promptly on sluggish howplg, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It. purifies the blood, clears the skin, restores appe tite and digestion,and brings new strength and <‘nergy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then if you're not glad you tried Viuna, your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine Co., Indlanapolia, Ind. VIUNA The Wonder Medicine Sold By CALLOW & KOHNE
