GOOD IN ODD SLEEVE FAD.
Useful Suggestion for Girl Who Re-
models Her Gowns.

This odd sleeve fad is fine for the
girl who remodels her gowns;
Much of the trouble in making
gown look we'll lies in the sleeves.
Often one can change a dress which
is old in style or which one thinks not
becoming into an entirely different
style of dress by remodeling or put
ting in entirely new sleeves.
1t is not necessary in the least that
It be like the frock; it can be differ
emit, so long as it is more or less the
same color as the trimmings of the
gown.
A net, wolfe, silk or cashmere dress
can be remodeled with sleeve made
entirely of lace and chiffon. The
foundation is cut smaller than the
usual dress sleeve at the top, and this
upper portion is covered with eight
rows of lace, about three-quarters OF
an inch wide, and the rows sewed
close on top Of each other, the edging
Of one just covering the top edge Of
the row below it. The lower part Of
the sleeve is a full circular piece gath
cred to the lower edge of the top por-
ton. This circular piece is made Of
chiffon and trimmed with successive
rows of the lace. The lace should be
sewed on an inch or an inch and a
half apart.

MAKE THIS UP AT YOUR
HOME.

What will appear very interesting to
many people here is the article taken
from New York daily paper, giving
simple prescription, as formulated
by noted authority, who claims that
he has found a positive remedy to
cure almost any case of backache or
kidney or bladder arrangement, in
the following simple prescription, il
taken before the stage Of Brights dis
ease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,
three ounces; Compound Kargon, one
ounce. Shake we'll in a bottle and
take in teaspoonfL doses after each
meal and again at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at home
when asked regarding this prescrip-
ton, stated that the ingredients are all
harmless, and can be obtained at
small cost from any good prescription
pharmacy, or the mixture would be
put up if asked to do so. He further
stated that while this prescription is
often prescribed in rheumatic aAlic.
tons with splendid results, he could
see no reason why it would not be a
splendid remedy for kidney and uri-
nary troubles and backache. as it has
a peculiar action upon the kidney
structure, cleansing these most impor-
tant organs and helping them to slit
and filter from the blood the foul acids
and waste matter which cause sick
ness and suffering. Those Of our
readers who suffer can make no mis-
take in giving it trial.

Aids to seIf.Assurance.

There are two things which al
ways insist on to myself" said the
girl with small income. "One is to
keep my hair well brushed and be-
comingly arranged; the other is to
have my shoes polished and the heels
in perfect shape. If my hair is all
right, then l know look nice, and If
my shoes are good, then can stand
or walk with more assurance than a
brand-new gown would give me If my
heels were run down. It's not alone
the way they look that is important,
but the way they make me feel"

A puny child is always an anxiety
to the parents. There seems general
" no reason why the little one should
be weak when it is we'll fed. But the
fact is that it does not matter how
much food the child takes if the
stomach cannot extract the nourish-.
ment from it. No benefit can be de-
rived from just eating. That is the
condition Of many sickly child. The
stomach and organs Of digestion and
nutrition are not doing their work, and
the body is really starving. 1t is little
use to give FISH foods, like cod liver
oil or emuIsions, in such a case, be-
cause these also have to be digested.
Strength is what the stomach needs.

cry strengthens the stomach, nourishes

The following resolutions we're at

Whereas, we, the undersigned resi-
dents Of the City of Okolona, Chicka-
saw County, State Of Mississippi, be-
ing moved by the most commendable
desire to do, in our humble way, what
ever good we can in any worthy cause,
and to help our fellowman in any way
we can, within the bounds Of our
limited ability, and
Whereas, it has been made to ap-
pear that we, by united effort, might in
some small measure aid in securing
for our esteemed friend. Hon. William
Bell, some lasting benefit;
Therefore, we hereby recommend
him to anyone who may be interested,
senhmentally or otherwise, as an am
bilious young man of himenial aspira-
tons, in every way worthy of their
most profound consideration; and by
these presents do respectfully submit
our testimony in his behalf, with no
desire to bias or unduly influence any
body in any way, financially or politi-
cally, nor to tresspass upon the rights
of any one to think and act OF their
own accord, recognizing that every
one should be fully persuaded in their
own mind, nor to infringe upon Cupid
rights in the sacred realms Of love,
wherein are set the snares and nets OF
holy matrimony, but do further set
forth some Of his many sterling quail
ties and commendable attributes.
We therefore respectfully submit
that he is man Of prominence among
average men; that his commanding
figure can only be compared. to the
figure one; that he is a man Of large
and generous heart as evidenced by
the bright new penny he puts into the
church collection quarterly, that he
has a high and lofty intellect, if any at
all, the place designed by nature for
it's abode being Of considerable alt-
tude, that he is remarkably persever-
ing, hopeful, not easily discouraged,
going on from defeat to calamity with
an answering purpose to succeed
somewhere, and altogether, a man
worthy and deserving of life's richest
blessings. May this Bell many times
ring out glad tidings, telling the world
Of personal Joy, ere it is made to toll
it's own final reqeium.
We hope, in time, he'll meet his fate,
Nor fear the future or hard times,
