Take Plenty of Time TO Eat.

There is saying that Rapid eat
ing is slow suicide" If You have
formed the habit of eating too rapid
ly you are most likely suffering from
indigestion or constipation, which will
result eventually in serious illness un-
less corrected. Digestion begins in
the mouth. Food should be thorough
ly masticated and insalivated. Then
when YOU have a fullness of the stom-
ach or feel dull and stupid after
eating, take one of Chamberlain's Tab
lets. Many severe cases of stomach
trouble and constipation have been
cured by the use of these tablets.
They are easy to take and most agree

pearl without any metal and strung
as a slide or a silk cord Both men
and women are adopting this incon.
spicuous but handsome device.
Perhaps one OF the most pleasing
novelties of the moment is a velvet
neckband with slides of seed pearls
These come with two or three slides
or with a simple festoon. They are
both radical departures from the old
fashioned themes, such as the r0sette
and the bowknot.

The design shows conventional
arrangement of two flowers. Sage.
green suede could be effectively used
for this cardcase, with the design
done in gold. If preferred, the petals
can be cut out with sharp knife and

Those are sold at the arts and crafts

s, metimes the flowers are cut out

You can utilize this motif effectively
when decorating covers for books,

an excellent design for stenciling.
