SmartIy Dressed Girls Have Returned
to the "CIock"-slk Stockings
Always the Proper Thing.

"Clocked" hosiery, such as was
worn years ago, has become the new
est fad for smartly dressed girls. All
the stockings for day wear show this
embroidery up the side, sometimes in
self-colors. but more often in one con-
trasting. Red or white on black is
beyond doubt the best.
This form of decoration has already
displaced openwork for the carefully
dressed woman. 1t has finally been
decided that lacy effects are not good
for the street, but that they should be
reserved for the house and evening
wear. Therefore, elaborate as is the
hosiery for dress use, it, is very plain
for street wear.
Severity in out of doors dress has
led to adopting an entirely different
quality of hosiery for that time. Girls
who can afford to, wear silk stockings
always, but they have now at least
three different qualities. When walk
ing, the thin transparent, though
plain, kind is given up.
This is now reserved for the house
In the morning, or when paying visits

Can't Get Away From 1t

phoric Acid combined" and Potash 73.44 per
cent from total of 101.07.
Considerable more than one-half of Phos-
phate of Potash
Analysis of GrapeNuts shows: Potassium
and Phosphorus (Which join and make Pho5-
phate of Potash) is considerable more than
one-half Of all the mineral salts in the food.
DR.. Geo. W. Carey, an authority on the
constituent elements of the body says: THE
gray matter of the brain is controlled entirely
by the inorganic cell-salt, Potassium Phos-
phate phosphate of Potash). This salt unites
with albumen and by the addition of oxygen
creates nerve fluid or the gray matter Of the
brain. OF course, there is a trace Of other
salts and other organic matter in nerve fluid,
but Potassium Phosphate is the chief factor
and has the power within itself to attract, by
it's own law of affinity, all things needed to
manufacture the elixir of life"
Further on he says: "The beginning and end
of the matter is to supply the lacking principle,
and in molecular form, exactly as nature fur
nishes it in vegetables, fruits and grain. To
supply deficiences-this is the only law OF
cure"
The natural conclusion is that IL Phosphate
of Potash is the needed mineral element in
brain and you use food which does not contain
it, you have brain fag because its daily loss is
not supplied.
On the contrary, If you eat food known to
be rich in this element, you place before the
life forces that which nature demands for
brain-building.
Mind does not work we'll on brain that is
broken down by lack of nourishment.
peaceful and evenly poised mind Is neces-
sary to good digestion.

LOST FAITH IN WHITE MAN
Eskimo Tested Efficacy Of Telephone
Scheme, and Realized He Had
Been Deceived.

An interesting story is told regard
ing the efforts of an Eskimo to con-
struct telephone line. The Eskimo
came into possession of piece of wire
of considerable length and never hav-
ing seen wire before he asked Profess
sor Mcmillan of the Peary north pole
expedition what it was and what it
was used for. He was told that the white
man strung it on poles stuck in the
ground and a voice talking to an in
strument at one end could be heard at
the other end. After some search the
next morning the Eskimo was found
to be engaged in telephone construc-
tion work of his own. He stuck some
sticks in the ground and hung his
wire on them. He held one end of
the wire to his mouth and talked to
it at the top Of his voice. Then he
ran as fast as he could to the other
end and held the wire to his ear with
the expectation of hearing his own
words repeated.
When he failed to hear any sounds
the expression on his face revealed
his opinion of his white friend.

OF All Kinds and Descriptions, and
Generally More Elaborate Than


Marabout and ostrich scarfs are
more elaborate than ever.
There is no end to the possibilities
that lie within the fluffiness of the
feathers, combined with folds or shir-
rings of chiffon.
An edging of black and white mara
bout completes a bit of feminine
daintiness that would add charm to
any costume
A fancy bow of cerise velvet com
bined with chiffon in the same shade
has long ends that would be especial
ly effective on white frock
The most popular scarfs have bodies
of shirred chiffon with edgings of
marabout that either match or are in
striking contrast.
They are SO simple In design that
any woman even passably clever with
the needle can fashion one in an after
noon.
A muff to match is a smart acquisi-
tion and the set looks we'll with an
evening coat or for theater wear.

A New Silk,

Among the newest and elegant silk
en- fabrics which the season has called
into prominence is satin feutre, a very
lustrous weave, heavy of weave, beau
tiful of finish, but soft and graceful
despite its heaviness.
1t is quite wide, as are the finer
silks, and is to be had in plain colors
in the new and fashionable tones. as
well as striped effects-the ground
one shade and tiny hair line of con-
trasting color crossing it. The stripes
are single and not too far apart to be
unduly conspicuous.
For elegant afternoon or more sim
pie street dresses satin feutre is very
effective and will make very striking
toilettes.

BY JULIA BoTToMLEY.

NYO prettier millinery can be found
IN for the little miss than is pic
1 y tured here. Children's hats are
more elaborate than for many
seasons, but the choice of materials
saves them from losing their childish
ness Simple laces. light and trans
parent straws. small flowers and soft
lightweight ribbons, with high luster,
take away every suggestion of grown
up styles and leave us and the little
ladies equally delighted with the sea
sons offerings.
The first hat shown Is the familiar
corday model with puffed crown of
lacy braid and brim facing of the
same. The upper brim is covered with
two rows of side plated chiffon or
null edged with lace. A collar of rib
bon is finished with a rosette at the
side, made of two ruffies of the ribbon.
Small rose buds and foliage finish the
trimming. Children from six to sixteen
years can wear a design of this kind.

signed for little youthful wearer 1t

Acknowledged the Truth to His
Friends Query.

Apropos of beautiful young wife,
worth $4O,O00,O00, who had just di.
vorced her penniless husband in or
der to marry again, Henry E. Dixey,
the comedian, said at a dinner in New
York:
THE young man who marries for
money has none too easy time of it.
His rich wife is likely to tire of him
and throw him out in few years, or
else she is likely to limit his allow
ance to 25 or so cents a day.

Some Antique MUGS.

stopped off at Bacon Ridge.

Uncle Jason stroked his chin whis-

Is it possible to nourish, strengthen and Re
build the Brain by Food?
Every who thinks uses up part of the
brain each day. Why don't it all disappear
and leave an empty skull in say month OF
brain work? Because the man rebuilds each
day.
If he builds little less than he destroys,
brain fag and nervous prostration result sure.
If he builds back little more each day, the
brain grows stronger and more capable. That
also is sure. Where does man get the material
to rebuild his brain? Is 1t from air, sky or the
ice of the Arctic sea? When you come to
think about it, the rebuilding material must
be in the food and drink.
That also is sure
Are the brain rebuilding materials found in
all food? In a good variety but not in suitable
proportion in all.
To illustrate: we know bones are made large
ly of lime and magnesia taken from food;
therefore to make healthy bone structure we
must have food containing these things. We
would hardly feed only sugar and fat to make
healthy bone structure in growing child.
Likewise If we would feed in skillful man
ner to insure getting what the brain requires
for strength and rebuilding, we must first know
what the brain is composed of and then select
some article or articles there are more than
one) that contain these elements.

authority Geoghegan, shows of Mineral Salts,

the third year. 1t is easy after look
ing over a bunch of shells to tell how
old an oyster is. A summer hump and
the winter sink come across the shell
every year, but after the seventh or
tenth year full growth comes; then,
by looking at the sinks between the
humps it is hard to tell anything
more about Miss Oysters age. oysters
