DRESS IS INSANE
Basil King, Noted Fiction Writ
er, Criticises Fashions.
"Crazy COlors Look Like Cubist
Movies" He Says.

Cambridge. Mass, April 15--Basli
King, writer of fiction, declared to-
day that the changing fashions of the
modern women SAVIOR of the lunat1c
asylum, and that a womans wearing
apparel affects her morals for good
or bad.
Il walked down Fifth avenue the
other day and it was like being at a
fancy dress ball in lunatic asylum,
he said.
This flaring of crazy colors, / do
not doubt at all, affects the people
who are compelled to look at it day
after day. 1t makes you feel as if you
had been looking at a moving picture
of the Cubist order.
The more civilization was increas-
ed the further people previously had
come to covering their bodies up. The
inclination of the present generation
is on the down grade, for women take
off instead of put on.
IF you are walking in a street you
don't have a chance to see what sort
of faces women have. Their gaudy.
weird shaped clothes kill everything
except their figures. The spiritual
qualities of women dwell in their
faces. Since their faces are hidden
under hair or hat or put under total
eclipse by their clothes, the appeal
women make is most decidedly to the
gFOSSer senses

Woman's Beauty is
Based on Health
To Have Health, Bowel Move
ment is Absolutely Neces-
sary-How Best to
Obtain 1t

If woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics every woman would be pic
ture of loveliness. But beauty lies deep
err than that. 1t lies in health. In the
majority of cases the basis of health.
and the cause of sickness, can be traced
to the action of the bowels.
The headaches. the lassitude, the SAL
low skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to consultation. So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble. They do not eat
carefully. they eat indigestible foods
because the foods are served daintily
and they do not exercise enough. But
whatever the particular cause may be
it is important that the condition
should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women. and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
auirements. is DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin. which thousands of women en-
dorse mighty. Mrs. Jennie Snedeker,
that she is cured of grave stomach
and bowel troubles by using Syrup
Pepsin and without The aid of doctor
or any other medicine" All the family
can use Syrup PepSin. for thousands of
mothers give it to babies and children.
1t is also admirably suited to the re-
quirements of elderly people, in fact to
all who by reason of age or infirmity
cannot stand harsh salts. cathartics
pills or purgatives These should al
ways be avoided for at best their effect
is only for that day, while a genuine
remedy like Syrup Pepsin acts mildly
but permanently.

Revival at the Auditorium.

Sin is not a private matter. Society
and sin are closely linked together.
These were points emphasized by the
Rev. Robert Gordon at the auditorium
Monday night in the second of the Sc
ries of addresses on The Little Bible.
Rev. Mr.. Gordon said: Sin is new
err a private affair. The whole world
is better or worse for the thoughts We
hold in mind. The 51st Psalm was
written by one who by the way of sin
full thinking went down from self in
diligence to lust and from lust to hate,
and from hate to murder. David sin
ned against Uriah and Bathsheba
brought disgrace upon himself and
shame and suffering to his home and
nation.
Moved by remembrance of Gods
kindness toward him, he prays for
pardon and dares to seek purity of
heart. God had been good to him.
From the sheepfold he had been lift
ed to the throne. To him had been
given such revelations of the divine
nature as find expression in the uni
versally-loved twenty-third Psalm.
The cross. the supreme manifestation
of the divine love, has drawn men to-
ward penitence as nothing else can
The subject of the sermon tonight
by Rev. Mr.. Gordon will be The
worlds Redeemer" The chorus un-
der the leadership of Prof. B. p.
Stout of Pasadena, Calf, is doing good
work.

A SURE REMEDY for LAZY LIVER
Go to B. |. Browder for This Safe, Re.
liable Remedy and Get Your Money
Back if il Fails

There are very few remedies that
gain the confidence of druggists as
Dodson's Liver Tone does. B. L. Browd-
er sells it and backs up the sale Of
every bottle with the money back
guarantee that the price will be re-
funded if it fails to give complete sat-
isfaction.
Dodson's Liver Tone costs so cents
bottle. It's the safest and best rem
edy for torpid liver, constipation, bill
iousness, etc., that has ever been sold
in this city. 1t takes the place Of dam
gerous calomel and does not lay you
up as dose of calomel often does. A
bottle in the house is as sgood as 30
cents in the bank. If you or your
family need a liver tonic youhave the
medicine ready. If it fails you get
your money back.
Be sure you get Dodson's Liver Tone
when you ask for it. There are i'm
itations of it that may disappoint you.

GravelhiIl Items.

This community was visited by a
wind storm last Thursday night the
Goth partially unroofing the Gravel
hill store. The roof On j. B. Hug
gins barn was slightly damaged by a
fallen tree. No other damage ex-
cept considerable fence was blown
down.
Early sown oats are looking nice
these warm days, judging by the
amount of fertilizer being hauled
from the r. R. Indications point to
another large crop of cotton. Our
opinion is this is the time TO raise
corn and hogs.
Rev. Carmack, of Corinth, preach
ed here Saturday and Sunday. The
chbrch has called him to pastor it for
an indefinite time.
Our Sunday school made liberal
contribution Sunday morning for the
benefit Of the Baptist Orphans Home.
The amount given was something over
seven dollars. Our Superintendent
G. M. Gooch deserves much credit for
the interest created in this line of
work.
Over 20 little girls and boys en-
joyed and Easter egg hunt at the
home Of j. B. Higgins Sunday eve.
AS result there are several little
boys that do not like eggs as we'll as
they did. After the feast all gath
cred around the organ and had some
NICE songs. There were no large
folks to interfere and the little ones
had things going their way. How
we do enjoy seeing the innocent en-
joy themselves. The evening was
spent pleasantly by all.
