Value of Fruit Acids.

TT is thought that acid fruits induce
rheumatism. The contrary is true.
Fruit acids taken into the system by a
person who has rheumatism act bene-
fcially. and actually have the effect of
increasing the alkalinity OF the blood
Experiments have proved this conclusive
ly. Thus a person who has too much
uric acid in the blood should for a time
eat fruit or acid fruit juices in large
quantities.

VHE wedding gown chosen by
the wartime bride Of the
White House, of plain white
satin with heavy lace, was
conventional and handsome,
but it Will scarcely set n precedent for
the average American bride VINO prefers
something lighter and softer.
We have moved away from the idea
that satin. and satin only, must he
chosen for the wedding gown. In this,
as in many other things. we have not
been held by tradition. There are brides
who wear silver and gold cloth after
the manner of the brides of the Medlcis,
hut this is not to be advised.
Satin is always good. it is true, but It
is warm looking for the heated days OF
May and June and 1t is in those months
that the majority of nuptial events oc-
cur The newer idea of using crepe de
chine with an embossed satin figure
has been cordially taken up by many
fashionables, and the older but entirely
satisfactory idea of making the gown
of tulle over taffeta and satin has
been reinstated with excellent results.
