straw hat of midsummer; yet the same
individual will set blithely forth for a
formal evening entertainment logged
out in the full panop1y of dress clothes
and wearing laced boots! Now, as a
matter of fact, a laced boot IS exactly
as improper at IS minutes past sever
as a straw hat is IS days past Septem-

Business Suits.
Without being extreme IN cut, the
business and general suit of the mo-
ment is a very natty affair. The coat
defines the figure a bit more than has
been the case for several seasons, and,
again referring to the similarity between
mans and woman's attire 1t may be
said that all outergarments are now
designed to suggest the lines OF the hg-
ure beneath and to give as great an
effect of slenderness and youth as IS
possible under the circumstances. The
coat of the moment is especially close
cut and has a certain snap and dashing
youthfulness with its rounded-away
shape at the front, its very long lapels
and very short collar. 1t opens in a
deep V to show the equally well cut
waistcoat high-cut at the neck and
very long below the waist, with two
sharply pointed tabs, or points. Trous-
ers without suggesting tightness, have
a cut that defines well turned limb
beneath, and are worn short enough
to show a snappy buttoned boot Such
suits are made of cheviots, tweeds and
homespuns, and the favorite color eff
fects among well-dressed men are pur-
pies, browns and white pin-striped blacks
and blues in unfinished worsteds.

PLEASANT FOR MISS SMITH
Have Meant Anything, But
Then Again.

There is a man in this town who
knows a good story with which TO be-
Gin an after-diEner speech. He has
saved it for two years, and has not
had chance to use il. He has not
heard anybody else use it in that time.
He offers it here I'm the hope that IT
may aid those martyrs-not listed in
Fox's book-of whom the toastmaster
demands that most difficult oratorical
effort-the happy after-dinner talk
about something which one speaker
has already discussed. Here 1t it,
very short, but lending itself graceful
ly to elaboration:
A Harvard graduate student went TO
Chicago to pursue his studies. At one
session of the class he attended the
first speaker was a Chicago woman, a
doctor of philosophy. severe and plain.
but learned. The Harvard man was
called on next.
The discussion offers room for end
less discussion" he began. Then he
bethought him of chivalry. but really
when my learned colleague, Miss
Smith. rose to her feet. it seemed that
the ground was covered. Newark

SPEAKS FOR ITSELF
Experience of a Southern Man.

please allow me to thank the origi-
nator of Postum, which in my case,
speaks for itself" writes Fla. man.
Il formerly drank so much coffee
that rly nervous system was almost
wreck" (Tea is just as injurious be-
cause it contains caffeine, the drug
found IN coffee.) my physician told
me to quit drinking it but l had TO
have son ething, so l tried Postum.
ITO my great surprise saw quite
a change in my nerves in about 10
days. That was year ago and now
my nerves are steady and don't have
those bilious sick headaches which !
regularly had while drinking coffee.
Postum seems to have body-build-
ing properties and leaves the head
clear. And / do not have the bad
taste in my mouth when get up morn
ings. When Postum is boiled good
and strong, it is far better in taste
than coffee. My advice to coffee drink
ers is to try Postum and be con-
vinced"

Postum comes in two forms:

Mhv Poison ivy Polsons.

Poison ivy has long been a mystery
both TO scientists and laymen; why
and with what manner it causes the pc
crliar rash and irritating inilamma-
ton have puzzled both botanists and
physicians. At last the reason has
been discovered. DR. Mirande of Paris
read 10 the Academy of Sciences in
that city recently the results of his
study of the poisonous weed. Poison
ivy contains prussic acid. This is
found principally in che young leaves
and buds; in the older leaves there is
very little of it. In three and one
half ounces of young leaves there is
sbout quarter of grain of the acid.
AS with other plants in which prussic
acid is found. the poisonous substance
does not exist in its perfect form. but
develops as soon as the leaves are
bruised. chemical action being set
up through the union of an engine
with a glucosid.

What So Precious
As a Healthy Baby?
Every Youngsfer Can Have Fine
Digestion il GiUen q Good
BABY Laxative.

In spite Of the greatest personal
care and the most intelligent attention
to diet. babies and children will be-
come constipated, and it is fact that
constipation and indigestion have
wrecked many a young life. To start
with q good digestive apparatus is to
start life without handicap.
But. as we cannot all have perfect
working bowels. we must do the next
best thing and acquire them, or train
Thorn TO become healthy. This can be
done by the use of a laxative-tonic
very highly recommended by a great
many mothers. The remedy is called
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and has
been on the market for two genera
tions. 1t can be bought conveniently
at any drug store for fifty cents or one
dollar a bottle. and those who are al
ready convinced of its merits buy the
dollar Size
Its mildness makes 1t the ideal medi
cine for children, and it is also very
pleasant TO the taste. 1t is sure in its
effect, and genuinely harmless. Very
little of it is required and its frequent
usS does not cause it TO lose its eff.
feet. as is the case with SO many other
remedies.
Thousands can testify to its merits
in constipation, indigestion. bilious
ness. sick headaches. etc, among
them reliable people like Mrs. James

however. it is generally Of the three
piece type. Duvetyn has solved the
problem for many brides, as il is
classed among the materials for the
costume tailleur, and yet il is not as
severe as serge, tweed or even velours
de laine, for it has a silky face which
makes it dressy.
The model shown in the sketch is an
unusually good one for the going
away" costume. 1t is developed in a
new serpent green duvetyn. as green
bright enough to answer thu fad for
brilliant colcrings. and set not as vivid
as emerald. The skirt may be fash
Toned in many ways-plain. with the
slight slashing at the side. as is shown
in the sketch, with q little drapery
at one side, or with the straight tunic
effect. Even the peg-top model could
be adopted with success, for the de
cided flare in the skirt of the jacket
would make it possible to wear skirt
that had considerable fulness over the
hips.

A few years of school dental clinics
have made toothbrush drills a daily
familiar idea in many cities. It took
the Toronto public nurses, or rather
their supervisor, Lima L. Rogers, TO
originate another drill quite as unique
and importance Since last October the
school children of Toronto, in squads
of 20, have practiced daily nose
blowing drills, and the effect on the
freshness of the atmosphere of the
school rooms has been so noticeable
that the teachers have become assid-
uous in seeing to it that no child comes
to school unprovided with a pocket
handkerchief. They often. indeed,
themselves. order the drills without
waiting for the coming of the nurse.
The effect of the drill is perceptible
already on individual children, in
cases of catarrh, and the doctors pre-
dict that it will have an appreciate
effect in time in lessening adenoids
and other throat and nose Affections
