PROPER FITTING OF SLEEVE
That Is Too Frequently
Neglected.

The correctly fitted sleeve misplaced
we actually have grown used to 1t and
are no longer distressed at the grew
some sight.
A glance at those on the street and
critical survey at home should con-
vince the one on sleeves intent that
firstly, the front seam is misplaced,
and. failing at this point, the entire
sleeve is thrown out of gear and trou-
BILE follows round the entire arms eye.
It extends outward, as 1t were. in rip
pies to the whole upper part of the
sleeve and pulls even the bodice out
of position.
With the sleeve seam placed an
inch too high the top gathers will be
thrown backward, so that, instead of
their being at the top of the arm and
extending the same distance front
ward and backward, they will all ap-
pear at bunch and too far back.
Common sense should enter in;
gathers are intended to make room for
the rise of the arm. They, therefore,
are needed at the very top-center OF
the arm, where it joins the body, and
not at any point along the back, where
there is not fulness of arm to necessi-
tate gathers. 1t is really humane to
look into this little matter of armholes
and front seams and to assist in
eliminating just one more unpleasant
sight. Whenever fashions are volumin-
GUS the public as whole dresses

concealing; but with scant princess
lines. insists shrek out their difficult
ties and infiict pain on the sensitive

FOOD QUESTION
Settled with Perfect Satisfaction BY
Dyspeptic.

It's not an easy matter to satisfy all
the members of the family at meal
time as every housewife knows.
And when the husband has dyspep-
STA and can't eat the simplest ordinary
food without causing trouble, the food
question becomes doubly annoying.
An Illinois woman writes:
MY husbands health was poor, he
had no appetite for anything | could
get for him, it seemed.
He was hardly able to work, was
taking medicine continually, and as
soon as he would feel better would go
to work again only to give up in a
few weeks. He suffered severely with
stomach trouble.
Tired of everything l had been able
to get for him to eat, one day seeing
an advertisement about Grape-Nuts, |
got some and tried it for breakfast the
next morning.
I'VE all thought 1t was pretty good
although we had no idea of using 1t
regularly. But when my husband came
home at night he asked for Grape
Nuts.
1T was the same next day and |
bad to get it right along, because when
we would get to the table the question,
Have you any Grape-Nuts' was a reg
ular thing. So l began to buy 1t by
the dozen pkgs.
My husbands health began to i'm
prove right along. l sometimes felt
offended when I'd make something l
thought he would like for a change.
and still hear the same old question,
Have you any GrapeINuts?'

ECONOMY IN EVENING CLOAK
Black Satin Wrap Is Perhaps MOST
Sensible investment to BE
Made.

From among a full line of very
good looking evening wraps there may
be singled out several that, in their
more practical cut and their less dell
cate coloring, suggest the making OF
the economical evening cloak.
The black satin wrap stands fortn
alone among a host of palest rose ana
blue garments as a most sensible IN

The lining may be the richest OF

Excusable Suicide.

AS a general rule the world has lit.
tie sympathy with persons who COM
NIT suicide. BY the thoughtless who
never take into consideration the cour.
age required to overcome the Unborn
desire to prolong life, suicide is inter.
preted as cowardice, no matter what
the immediate cause or motive was.
OF course, there are exceptions, and
it is safe to assume that the man who
tried to commit suicide the other day
at Maspeth, l.. l., will find thousands
of sincere sympathizers. He lived
with his aunt, who is the mother of a
little boy baby, named willie" AS
the young man explained in a letter
intended to be his last message to the
world, his aunt drove him to suicide
by everlastingly RECALLING him with
accounts of the wonderful things that
Willie did. Like many thousands Of
other mothers in whom the otherwise
natural fondness for their child has
developed into a mania, the woman in
question never considered the posi-.
bility that the nerves of the persons
around her might not be attuned to
the rawlings of her monomania, and
the result was that she nearly talked
her nephew to death.
