Mild Laxative
for Baby Free

The child Of today is the parent of
the future, and whether it grows up
healthy and strong, or puny and weak,
depends upon the intelligence of its
parents, for most children are born
into the world healthy, but thousands
become future weaklings between
birth and the age of ten, when the
parents are still in greatest control.
The prime cause Of trouble is in the
stomach. a baby that is digesting its
food seldom cries and always looks cheer
full; the little child whose stomach is good
romps and plays and never whines, the
growing child learns we'll at school and Is
eager for fun IL its head is clear and its
stomach light. and that means IL it has
The best and safest way to cure any
irregularity of the stomach and bowels
in children Is by the use OF DR.. Caldwells
Syrup Pepsin. This IS liquid laxativ-
wonderful in its effect as Mrs. John v.

others can testify who give IL 20 their
children with extraordinary results.
A bottle only costs 50 cents or 81 ac-
cording to the size you want, and even
one 50-cent bottle will do a wonderful
amount Of good in a family. It can be
given TO any member Of the family in
constipation, sour stomach. Indigestion,
torpid liver, dyspepsia, heartburn, sick
headache and similar digestive troubles.
il never gripes or strangles like pills,

gerie lace or net TO do duty.
At the beginning Of the season 1t looked
as though chiffon lace and marquisette
were to take precedence OF the nets as
material for blouses and guimpes, and
indeed the fine laces are preferred to
net for the guimpes Of dressy French
frocks, but net Is too satisfactory a mater
ial for such purposes to be lightly elbowed
aside and tremendous quantities OF It
are still being sold, even in the ready
tucked varieties which were distressingly
ubiquitous during the winter.
One thing that has helped the nets to
hold their prestige is the variety and
beauty Of the new net meshes and de-
signs which have been brought out this
spring, Meshes Of every. imaginable
size and design are supplied in silk and
tn cotton and a wide range Of colorings
too is provided, 80 that the irksome

very modish blouse Of plain net brinI
the price Of such a model up to a poin
well beyond the reach of the woman o
modest dress allowance.
The French blouse in black and golt
illustrated here is an example Of thi
sort and the price was appalling; yet ate
all, while there was much braiding, tn
braid was put on In lines simple enough
to be easily followed. and applying it il
simply a matter of time and patience
The blouse in question was intended fol
use with a HANDSOME black costume anc
WAS Of black silk net with lines Of very
fine gold soutache almost covering it
but the design would be good in any les
striking n tone coloring.
Much less intricate and capable Of still
greater simplifioation was a charming
blouse Of ring dot net which also figures
among the sketches. The net had a fine
mesh and the body OF the blouse and the
sleeves we're tucked in half inch tucks.
The co lor was one of me ioxefyh new leaf
greens, cool, bright. summary, yet soft
in tone. and the net was made over a
lining Of fine white lawn.
The fronts were left open TO show soft
frills of creamy valenciennes lace set on
this lawn lining and the high collar was
OF valenciennee and lawn. as was the
sleeve finish coming out like an under
sleeve from beneath the green cuff. The
blouse fronts were held In place by little
knots Of black satin which were tied
across the chemisette.

fashion with some very simple finish
around the neck and down the fronts Of
the net. The model, however, had it's
element iof French hand work and thor
was no lack OF intrioacy here.
Green chiffon taffeta matching the net
was used for this border and was lightly
embroidered in black and gold. The
inner edge OF this border was irregular,
following the line Of the embroidery de-
sign. Cords and buttons ornamented the
fronts at the bust, the cord being covered
with the green tafeta and having a line
OF heavy black silk thread wound spirally
around It. The buttons were Of the green
silk embroidered in black and gold. Cuffs
Of the silk were merely bands bordered
by the silk cord.
An expensive model Of course, but the
embroidery was Of a light outline sort
easily done and the whole effect was
simple. And then. as has been said, ever
with the embroidery eliminated and plain
narrow bands bordering the net this
model would be successful.
In fine cream silk net embroidered ! IN
color is an imported model which has
had various slight variations rung upon
its theme. The model as pictured here
was shown with one of the pale amber
shades in the embroidery and also with
embroidery Of delicate lilac.
The lines are simple and the caclet
Of the blouse lies chiefly in the contrasts
between the filing net and the very heavy
embroidery Of lustrous silk and in the
coloring. The huge dots are padded to
make them stand up in relief and the
embroidery is done in an odd basketwork
or interviewer design over this padding,
The bordering line Of embroidery is also
done over padding, a soft cord, so that 1t
makes q heavy line. We have seen this

blouse in lilac and cream accompanying
.dressy coat and skirt of lilac tussor. and
the effect was excellent.
Marquisette is made up in much the
same way as the nets and frequently 4
look Of GOODNESS is given it by white lining,
though many makers prefer to keep
blouse lining and material in the one
color matching the costume. Some
charming effects are obtained. however,
by laying chiffon over contrasting color.
This arrangement requires careful
appreciation Of color values il the blouse
is to harmonize perfectly with the COS
tune and not TO assume the forbidden
separate blouse aspect. One Of the French
blouses illustrated here has its body all Of
soft grayish o. ~color-one Of the new rose
tones: but this rose is toned down by a wide
line OF dull silver lace running around the
shoulders. with little straps Of the chiffon
buttoning down over 1t. Silver lace We
call it and yet many of the new silver and
gold laces and trimmings are 30 dull that
they seem hardly metallic. and toe the
silver often takes on the dull grayish tones
of pewter and platinum rather than the
brilliance Of silver.
Sheer net or ~marquisette or fine lace
made up over gold or silver net sometimes
makes a pretty blouse, and a net or mar
q~uisette or thin chiffon made wei metallic
lace also gives good results for a dressy
blouse. This idea OF reversing materials.
putting the stuffs usually regarded as
trimming under thin materials instead Of
upon them, ia a recent fad which the
French designers develop In many ways.
The nets, chifons, DO, are made up not
only over metallic laces but over white
laoes also, the design showing through
sees too exquisite openwork embroidery
yelled in the same fashion and finely sou
tached net or chiffon yelled in plain net or
chiffon. These OF course are fantasies,
but effective ones. and IL money is spent
lavishly at least II is something to get
attractive results.
For very servioeable wear the blouse of
crepe, m~essaline, soft satin. pongee, DC,
is often used. but il lacks the suggestion
of GOODNESS and lightness given sy the
sheer materials sven in dark c~olorings.
Embroidered or braided in s~elf-color and
relieved and made becoming by some sort
Of extremely chic lace or net stock and
jabot it Is, however. pretty and comfort
able.
Lingerie blouses are of course still
popular and at their best lovely; but the
cheap blouses lavishly trimmed in coarse
lace embroidery are an abomination. as
they have always been. For ordinary
wear a very simple tucked blouse Of fine
linen or batiste or a fine crossbar batiste
with only a very little good lace or m
broidery Is far preferable to, the more
elaborate models in cheap materials; and
excellent tailored blouses severely cut and
tucked but Of fine materials are shown
and are exceedingly good looking worn
with some one OF the attractive separate
collars or stocks.
The Dutch collars will be comfortable
and cool. If not universally becoming. and
at least the younger contingent will look
well In them. Fine French lingerie blousee
with round or square Dutch neck hnish
are among the smart things. and will
doubtless be popular with those to whom
