proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
| ment.

Shopping Suggestions.

Net wells, a yard and a half in length,
with deep borders set with big velvet dots.
above which are smaller dots in effectively
arranged groups, are among the most popu-
lar OF the winter veilings.
In spite of the fact that the crepe chif-
fons are bit passe, one pretty piece of
yelling in white crepe chiffon cannot fail
to charm the fancy. The veil has a deep
hemstitched border on one edge and sells
by the yard for % cents.
one of the most effective of the face wells
is of fine white net set with clusters of tiny
black dots radiating from a small black
velvet star, with comet-like effect. The
effect of the veil is not so startling as II
sounds. for the comets do not occur so fire.
quently as 10 be too dazzling.
The newest chiffon wells are much lighter
In weight than those of the past season or
two. and the pretty crepe chiffons are now
by no means so smart as the gauzier eff
fects These newest chiffon wells are three
yards long and have a deep hemstitched
border all round about them.
=
Chantilly lace wells Of delicate textures
and designs are promised for wear a little
later in the season. Thus far the lace vel
is little seen, as most of those now shown
in the shops have designs so heavy that
the veil is more satisfactory as a scarf thar
as a face covering.
One of the prettiest of the novelty chif-
fons shown for either face or drape wells is
covered with tiny eyelets worked in but
ton-hole stitch. The chiffon costs So cents
a yard Other white chiffons show bis
chenille dots of black or scarlet or blue
scattered at Judicious intervals.

The wells of ombre chiffon are among the
latest of the drapings for the hat, which
seem this season to be Indispensable The
| wells come in a variety of colorS and are
two yards long. Each one shades through
| the different tones of a color, and one may
so adjust il that the particularly becoming
| tone covers the face.
