aches. sometimes lasting 2 or 3 days,
totally uniting me for anything.
ITO this afHiction was added. some
years ago, a trouble with nay heart
that was very painful, accompanied by
a smothering sensation and faintness.
Dyspepsia, also, came to make life
harder to bear. ] took all sorts of
patent medicines but none of them
helped me for any length of time.
The doctors frequently told me
that coffee was not good for me; but
without coffee I felt as If l had no
breakfast. 7 finally decided about 2
years ago to abandon the use of coffee
entirely, and as / had read great
deal about Postum I concluded TO try
that for a breakfast beverage.
,"I liked the taste of It and was par
ticularly pleased to notice that it did
not 'oomeup' as coffee used to. The

and less frequent. and finally ceased
altogether, and I have not had an at

year. My digestion is good. too, and

This is what Miss Ida TarbeU, the
biographer of Standard Oil and author
of Life Of Lincoln" has to say about
woman's civic duty:
The most valuable citizen in the
world is the woman who stays at
home and properly brings up a family
of children.
"A woman's first and most impor-
tant duty to the state is the same as
# always has been since the begin
ming of things-the rearing of good
citizens.
There is no achievement, literary.
artistic. what you viii, which woman
can perform that is Of the same vital
significance TO the nation as the rear
ing of a family of mentally, morally.
physically healthy boys and girls.
There is no profession, containing such
real honor for a woman as that Of
homemaking And it is the great ma
tional job for the majority Of us. Let
us see that we stick to it. We can't
do anything better"
Miss Tarbell's interviewer here in
terposed that it was not possible for
all women to marry. and she was
asked what civic duties were best per
formed by the single ones.
Miss Tarbell said: ''They still serve
the state in many ways. The highest
service that they can perform is to be-
come teachers. Women do excellent
work on boards Of hospitals, reforma-
tories, prisons. asylums and schools.
Indeed. there should be a proportion
Of women on all such boards, though
there should be men also.
'As factory and milk and tenement
house inspectors women do splendid
service. There should be many more
women probation officers. All state
institutions taking care of women and
children should be largely admins
tered by women"

A Fashiniable Dress Of FouIard.


The short tunic with over blouse is
one of the latest garments 10 have
appeared This one is designed for
young girls and small women and is
combined with a plain skirt to make
an exceptionally smart and attractive
dress. In the illustration, foulard is
the material and satin is the trim
ming, while the guimpe 81 of all-over

from great many different fabrics
with equal success. The tunic itself
is available for everything seasonabie
and can be used with skirt To match
or of contrasting material Clifton
or marquisette in combination with
silk would be exceedingly attractive
For the entire gown, the model Is a
good one for linen and other washable
fabrics as we'll as for the foulard In
fact, the little tunic is one Of those
garments that become simple or
dressy as II is treated in one way or
another. Ball fringe Is extensively
Worn this season and makes q very
sharming finish but if a palmer dress
Is wanted the skirt of the tunic could
be finished with hens or under-fac-
ing, and the fringe omitted, while the
skirt is made OF one material through
out This skirt is five gored and, in
this instance, II is finished with
straight band attached to the lower
edge, but it can be extended to the full
length if better liked. In addition 20
their other advantages the fashions
OF the present season lend themselves
to remodelling with exceptional sue
cess. and this dress is replete with
/ suggestion. The guimpe is entirely
separate and can be of any preferred
material and style. The tunic can be
made in the length illustrated or
either shorter or longer, as indicated
by the dotted lines in the back view.
For the 16 year size the over blouse
