Lingerie gowns are always especially
dear to the heart OF the young girl, and
some very pretty ones will be worn this
year. They are trimmed with lace and
embroidery and fine tuckings of the ma
terial. The laces which are most popu-
lar at present are the Irish and cluny
for the heavier effects and baby Irish

and French laid embroideries are also
used, often In combination with the

-HERE Is no one who takes more
interest In her new spring outfit
than the girl attending school
Her love OF pretty things can
have a fuller swing at this season Of
the year than IN the choosing of her
winter wardrobe. and as each shop win
dow blooms out IN the spring opening"
she stops not only to admire but also
TO see what II may have for her.
The fashions for young girls are so
attractive this year that It is only
case OF deciding between one pretty
model and another. and II is hardly
possible to go astray in making Sc
lection. The straight hipless figure OF
the young girl is the present ideal for
which all the fashions are planned. and
therefore almost any OF the new de-
signs are becoming to figures of that
type.
There is not a great difference be-
tween the fashions intended for the
schoolgirl and those for her aunt or
mother. The general changes In the
styles are carried out in the new gar
ments for all ages. even in those for the
little tots. The principal way in which
the question OF age affects the styles
is that the girls clothes are less elab-
orate. less draped, scanned and orna-
mented than those OF the older woman.
The girl or her guardian who UNDER
stands the simple requirements and re-
Etrictions can select from the women's
fashions many pretty models that would
DO equally well for the young girl. But
for those who are in doubt it will be
best TO use only those that have been
already selected or adapted for this
particular purpose.
There are a number OF special occa-
Sasss ceEzilg in the spring and summer
ror which the young girl wants to have
just the right thing to wear. There
may be the confirmation or the gradua-
ton. There is quite sure to be the
little dance and the garden party, and
ell sorts Of athletics. besides the regu-
lar routine Of school life and the sun
day church going or attendance upon
meetings.
The tailored or semitailored suit
c6aes up first for consideration. as It
VIII be worn before the others and is
on the whole the most important cos
tune OF the wardrobe.

DIETING DOES NOT
 CURE DIGESTION
Self Denial by Prescribed Rules of Health Used to be Considered
 q Cure.

Starvation is strange remedy tor any disease. Yet starvation by rlsor- ous, diet was once generally resorted to in cases of indigestion and dyspep- sia. Even yet, it is sometimes tried. Such a remedy is worse than use less. Every day of life consumes a portion of the tissues, of the human body. The food we eat serves to re- pair the waste, and you can't build up the system by withholding the ma terial necessary for these purposes. When you have dyspepsia or indiges- tion, or any form of stomach trouble, take little Kodol to help the stom- aeh do it's work.
 We say take Kodol, because it ls the only preparation that will digest all the food you eat. Every table spoonful of Kodol digests If pounds of food. It supplies the same digestive juices that are found in a healthy, vigorous stomach. There are other preparations that are partial digesters, but what your stomach needs is complete rest. Kodol is the only preparation that will give it. \ man is so constituted that he needs a variety of foods; to reduce the va riety always produces bad results In 99 cases out of 100 indigestion is due to lack of some of the elements which constitute the natural digestive juices. Kodol supplies just what is needed. Our guarantee: Get dol lar bottle of Kodol. If you are not benefited the druggist will at once return your money. Don't hesitate: any druggist will sell you Kodol on these terms. The dollar bottle con- tains 1-2 times as much as the soc bottle. Kodol is prepared in the laboratories of F. c. Dewitt X Co.,, Chicago.

NO BAD PICTURES
 WILL BE SHOWN
Board of Censorship Passing on Films in New York and Objectionable Moving Pictures Ire Discarded.

The board of censorship keeps up it. meritorious work two days a week at the office of the Motion Picture Patents Company, ill New York. AL most a hundred thousand feet of films have been examined to date. and only four hundred and twenty feet have been pruned out At the last meeting held on April F, twen- ty-eight subjects were criticised and only ten feet censored. This fact shows that the manufacturers have fallen i'll line and are anxious to pro- duce only pictures that are clean and wholesome.
 As a matter of record, the nine li- censed manufacturers even before the institution of the censorship board, turned out scarcely any offensive the case being then as it is now, simple one of demand and supply.
 As soon as the censors cut out a bit of film, the manufacturers study tAC OCO po1 ClOll, dAu ludhC uOlCo in order to prevent similar mistakes in the future, and it is safe to say that just as soon as they are able to learn exactly what is desired there will be nothing but that kind pro- duced, and the board of censorship will go out of existence for lack of work.
 At the rate the films are being ex- amined and released, it will sbe bat short time when the supply of the entire country will be of the 'ap- proved" order, and the millions of people who patronize the motion pie ture theater may do so without fear of the slightest shock to the most delicate sensibilities.

PINKERT0N MAN
 AFTER LEGISLATORS
Strange Man Creates Comment in Lit tie Rock-Beneved to be "Spotting" on BOOdlers.

Little Rock, April 21.-(SpeciaD- For several weeks there has been a stranger about the legislative halls who has quietly looked on during the sessions. He has frequently mingled with the legislators and proven to be a jolly good fellow and quite a spend- CT. He has also been some about the city hall, and the members of the city detective force claim he is a Pinker- ton man. This has given rise to the rumor that something is expected to come from the present session of the legislature, relative to charges of boodling. The alleged detective has declined to discuss his business with anyone and since the reports have come out that he has been here watching certain legislators. he has no more been seen about the state house or his customary loafing places. Reports have it that the Pinkerton man came here at the solicitation of prominent politicians to determine the methods of certain alleged lobbyists, who are known to be working stren- uously on matters now before the house and senate, but these men, too. decline to talk.
