Many OF the dark serges, silk and
linen dresses are made quite plain, de-
pendent entirely for trimming upon plain
or embroidered bat1ste or linen collars
with cuffs to match. The collars are
large and extended below the belt in the
form Of peplum or stoles.
The sketch illustrates the decorative
possibilities of these sets The original
is a fine. cream-tinted batiste. effectively
embroidered In pineapple design. The
collar continues over the shoulders In two
long tabs that inclose a vest Of plain
null with its high stock, and tuck under
the belt, as the single does at the back.
Sailor collars Of plain null with hem
stitched borders an inch wide are worn
with larger collars OF the gown mate
rial, and there Is a pronounced liking for
the little band collar that turns away
from the throat for about two inches,
finishing in front in a tiny rever.
Rufus are introduced. Frequently they
are reinforced by side frills. Some of
them Of lace or batiste are applied to a
plated silk foundation that matches the
dress. others to circular ruffie of black
velvet, and, just as popular, are the mar
row lace collars that lie fiat against the
/ dress
Dresses which are especially designed
to be elaborated with the null accesso-
ries do not necessarily eliminate all trim
ming. On the contrary, there are several
excellent models which, by the aid Of the
fichu, become equal to two distinct CO.'S
tunes.

A Harmless Way to
Darker the Hair
A Little Sage and Sulphur
Makes Gray Hair Vanish
"A Remedy for All
Hair Troubles.

Who does not know the value of Sage
and Sulphur for keeping the hair dark,
soft and glossy and in good condition?
AS a matter of fact. Sulphur Is q natural
element of hair, and a deficiency of it in
the hair is held by many scalp specialists
to be connected with loss of color and
vitality of the hair. Unquestionably, there
is no better remedy for hair and scalp
troubles, especially premature grayness,
than Sage and Sulphur, II properly pre-
pared.
The wyeth Chemical Company Of New
York put out an ideal preparation Of this
kind, called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur
are combined with other valuable rene
dies for keeping the hair and scalp in
clean, healthy condition.
If your hair is losing its color or con-
stantly coming out. or If you are troubled
with dandrun or dry, itchy scalp, get
ffty-cent bottle Of Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur from your druggist, use 1t accord
ing to the simple directions, and see what
difference a few days treatment will
make In the appearance Of your hair.
All druggists sell 1t. under guarantee
that the money will be refunded If the
remedy is not exactly as represented.

If you prepare banasa in this. a doc
tors way, you will find 1t very pleasant
in flavor and safe for the most delicate
digestion.
Take a banana that is neither overrip<
nor in any way tough. Skin and scrape
free of all stringiness. Make a syrup
with cupful of hot water and half a
cupful of granulated sugar. with a little
orange juice to flavor, and pour 1t into
shallow porcelain dish.
and bake it in fairly hot over for TWEEN
ty-five minutes. turning the fruit once
and basting it frequently. When it has a
clear, transparent look the banana is
done. Remove the fruit from the syrup.
which later is returned to the oven to
cook down to a jelly. Pour this over
the banana and serve 1t very cold.

Presumably you know. ladies. that the prcpeI

have got to take OF your fat. This must be done
in one OF three ways: BY dieting. by exercise, OF
by means Of Marmola Prescription Tablets. The

punish you pretty severely. the latter will cost
you IS cents at the druggists. The tablets will
not make any alteration in your diet necessary,
and yet in all probability, before you have used
up one case you will be losing from IL to ie
ounces Of fat a day. Which method do You like
