of the most difficult in dress
making. The style and finish is
equally a factor in the symmetry

CUFF with its trimming is often
the determining point.
This picture shows the very
new long-sleeve ''aeroplane"
cuff, the resemblance to wing
giving 1t the unique name. In
stead of being tight-fitting, a
pleasing suggestion of fullness
is worked into the upper part Of
the cuff by the Introduction of
four tiny pleats on the inside of
the sleeve near the bend in the
arm. But the really attractive
feature of the cuff is the soft,
plated frilling of chiffon which
circles the lower edge of the
sleeve and extends in a single
line up the outside of it nearly
as far as the elbow.
For the woman who finds 1t
necessary to turn back the sleeve
of her dress-up waist occasionally
when compelled to be housemaid
as we'll as hostes the "aeroplane"

said to be quite general in some parts
OF the state-and in rural sections at
that. 1T has an eNhilirating effect NJ >
on the user followed by an
equal amount Of depression. This
calls for the almost continuous use of
the stimulant.
The person addicted to the use OF
this drug loses all sense of moral re-
Snohslbility and becomes a menace to
society In some cities, druggists of
low principle may be found who will
sell the drug for the immense profit
IN 1T. The negroes who are the most
generally addicted, call the drug
sniff, for the reason that the dry
white powder is shifted into the nos
2Tiis, causing inscnsibility to pain and
producing hallucinatiuns. MANY So
called catarrh cures few years ago
were cocaine.
The Laurcns Advertiser and some
of the other papers discussed the
spreading use of the drug by negroes
and we thought the legislature would
bc asked to pass law severe enough
in its penalties to make the sale pro-
hibitive.
