Circulars recently issued by the Illi-

The roads will give the employe who
has borrowed money from a money
lender the full service of its legal de-

by the game. but instead will help him
out OF his troubles and show him a
better way to secure funds when they
are imperatively required.
Under the Illinois Central plan the
organization and all the talent of .he
Icompanys law department are placed
at the service of every employe of the
system I'm case of emergency. More
than that, the company causes the
publication of articles in its magazine
from time to time and also publishes
and distributes pamphlets containing
articles treating on matters wherein
experience has shown. for lack OF

fered financial loss or worry ihat

For early spring wear taffeta silk

Iahle taffetas with the soft chiffon fin

fculards are by no means passed and

usually pretty and are especially ef-
fective in the conventional designs
worked out in pastel shades. When
well made they are very stunning. The
manufacturer has learned the secret
OF making the bordered patterns real

has also proflted by former experiences
in the less attractive patterns and

The wide shadow laces are the best
for trimmings. The patterns contain
Rounces forty-fve inches wide, and
bands for trimming. The Venice lace
is also very hnndsome. Mr.. Burk

the uninitiated the prices seem slight
