WILL PLEASE THE INVALID
Pretty and Useful Trifies That VIII
Tighten the Tedlum Of the
Sick Room.

Among the appropriate things for
the invalid are flower holders. These
can be fastened to the foot of the
bed. and are large enough to hold
three or four carnations or roses.
generally all that are to be allowed in
the sick room. Another acceptable
gift Is a dainty piece of CHINA
flower bordered plate, a cruel bowl of
eggshell thinness. or a fragile cup and
saucer of delicate design. Never mind
If these things are likely to break with
their first tumble; because of their
beauty, they will give enough pleas
ure, perhaps real benefit, to make
their possible short existence well
worth while. A lightweight leather
writing case. provided with screw
top bottle of ink, compartments for
paper. envelopes, stamps, and pen and
pencil, gives the invalid who Is
strong enough to write certain feel
ing of independence. Some of these
cases have keys which add to their
usefulness. A pint or half pint
vacuum bottle. for keeping liquids
warm or cold, is another comfort-giv-
ing gift for the invalid and a time
saving gift for the nurse or caretaker.

SCARF OF SHETLAND WOOL
One Of the PrettIest and Most Com.
Portable Of the Seasons
Head Coverings.

Something more than a coat is re-
auired by the girl going forth IN the
evening to some gala function or
other. She needs head mufiiing, a
throat protector of some sort. and Is
very well protected If she has velvet
.or silk overboots and long wool nit
tens for the thin gloves. These things
make her comfortable, and If they are
selected they need not be clumsy or
unbecoming.
One of the cheapest and most re-
warding head muffiings of the season
is a Shetland wool scarf or auto veil,
for these pretty things can be worn
over the face These filmy scarfs
come in all colors and pure white. as
we'll as in white with gay Scotch Dor
ders. For dark girl who is going to
have bit of vivid color in her party
get-up the Scotch-border scarfs are
superb. They have look of Mex
lean splendor and cost exactly one
dollar and ten cents each!

COULD NOT STAND SUFFERING
FROM SKIN ERUPTION

II have been using Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment for the past
three months and I am glad to say
that they cured me of a most annoy
ing skin eruption. It began by my mo-
ticing red blotches appearing on my
face and scalp. Although they were
rather disfiguring, did not think any
thing of them until they began to get
scaly and dry and to itch and burn
until / could not stand the suffering.
Then began to use a different soap,
thinking that my old kind might be
hurting me, but that didn't seem to do
any good. went to two different doc
tors but neither seemed to relieve me
any. lost many nights sleep In con-
tinual scratching, sometimes scratch
ing till / drew the blood on my face
and head. Then / started In to use
the Cuticura Remedies and In two
months was entirely relieved of that
awful pest. am so delighted over
my cure by Cuticura Remedies that I
shall be glad to tell anybody about
it," (Signed) G.. NJ Mcfarland, 221

Uncle Joe's Check.

Col. Henry Casson. sergeant-at-arms
OF the house of representatives has
the original check given by Speaker
Joseph G. Cannon a few years ago to
a book agent. and about which an in
teresting story has been told.
An agent visited the speaker and In
terested him In an elaborate edition of
something which Uncle Joe didn't
want. but bought. When the books
arrived Uncle Joe examined them and
decided at once that something had
been put over him. When the agent
came for his money the speaker de
termined to make him indorse q terse
sentiment on books. so he wrote out q
check for $73, the amount due, and on
the back of it inscribed:
PAY to the order of Mr.. Blank. in
full payment for an edition which was
not worth a d., and dear at that
price, but for the ease and grace with
which he put It over your Uncle Joe
it was well worth the money."-Hu-

Novelties.

Nets are gaining in favor as foun
dalton for chiffon corsages. producing
a much softer effect than silk.
Large velvet bags with the personal
touch of an embroidered monogram
in one corner are much favored.
Among scarfs the newest material
is fine silk tricot, like glove silk.
These come in all the fashionable
shades.
Many Of the sleeves In the new
