tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting

ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax

dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation:
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

son with ordinary powers Of observa-
ton fail to notice the way in which
many women carry themselves in this
respect, especially in these days of
plain skirts, belts and shirts, a costume
which is admirably calculated to dis
play to the very greatest advantage
every defect and awkwardness of the
human figure. No friendly drapery
hides the ugly lines. and in many cases
they are very ugly indeed.
OF course, it is often the fault of the
skirts. Why a bad dressmaker should
always insist on cutting a skirt short
in front and then let it dip behind like
the tail of a bird is a mystery, but she
will do it. Now, the average woman
is hollow in the back, therefore her
skirt should be cut shorter behind
than before; and dress maker who
makes Il gown hoop up IN front should
be imprisoned or fined. Leaving the
sins of the dressmakers out of the
question, however, the blame rests on
the women themselves.
Look at them standing about at any
railroad station, OF in any shop or pub
lie place, ordinary, respectable, middle
class women, clad, of course, four-ifths
of them in the prevailing uniform of
skirt and shirt waist. They wear this
regardless of shape and weight, from
the slender young girl to the heavy,
middle-adged mother Of a family. 4 sur.
vey of them leads me to think that the
Englishman was justified in his opin-
ion. and that the American stomach
is really unduly conspic lous. Thin pec-
pie are often the worst. One can for
give stout, Notwithstanding woman
for being ungainly, but when it comes
to a thin, angular girl, all bone and

GUS flesh anywhere about her, it does
seem unnecessary, and it is.

Just as easy to have straight line from

the slouching sisters will only learn to

when you get used to it to stand in

stand with your weight resting on your
