Help The Stomach

When the stomach fails TO digest
and distribute that which is eaten,
the bowels become clogged with a
mass OF waste and refuse that fer
ments and generates poisons. that
are gradually forced into the blood,
causing distress and often serious
illness.
Most people naturally object to
the drastic cathartic and purgative
agents that shock the system. A

of the state of Vermont are bound up
with sverydetail Of state advance.
While laws and governments will not
make people happy, prosperous. or in

usually best shown by the choice Of
public officials and the laws on the
statute books. Then too, there is
the spending OF the state income A
state is like an individual, it spends
all the money ii takes in and usually
a little more. On the politics of a
state and the choice of candidates de-
ponds to considerable degree wheth-

be wisely or foolishly spent. II is
therefore important that tho people
consider these questions at time

The ends are slipped through small
silk-covered rings. making a tassel at
the end with about three inches of the

The sash, with long ends, of super
posed points and double standing
loops, takes an e~xtravagant amount
of ribbon and is prettier with two in
stead Of four hanging ends.
Besides adding the bright luster OF
silk to the costume the ribbon ends,
finished as pictured in these sashes,

r HE f1owery and diaphanous hats
pictured here have counterparts
in equally flowery but more substan.
tial headwear in Leghorn and hemp.
and in similar airy creations Of hair
braid and Tuscan lace braid. Then,
for the warmest weather, there are
pure white hats, net and chiffon or
lace. In the same coterie are some lin
gerie hats. But hats of black maine or
lace and Leghorn appear to make the
strongest appeal as the midsummer's
loveliest creations.
These fragile-looking, but really
quite durable pieces of millinery, are
made of the filmiest of materials, ma
line net, which has been w~aterproofed,
and thereby has conquered its old en-
envy, the moisture in the air. Even
rain does not cause 1t to wither and
shrivel, as in days Of old. 1t is to
be hoped that flowers which do not
collapse when the dews Of evening
fall or the sea breathes on them will
bloom in millinery gardens before an.
other spring rolls round. Many or
them now are dyed to Withstand the
sun, and sold as "fadeless."
The hats shown here of maline and
lace, and those similar to them of
hair or Tuscan braid, have the pc.
culiarity of suiting themselves to
either young or older women. But they
appear to best advantage on the ma
tron. When youth assumes the dig
nifty. OF a black dress hat, big, pic
turesque shapes provide an ele-
ment these smaller hats lack. But
they are helped out this season by the
masses Of flowers that adorn them and
by the youthful brides of velvet rib
bon that are brought from one side
to the other, under the chin or under
the hair.

THREE very unusual and beautiful
! sashes, made Of messaline ribbon.
are pictured here. Considering the
prominence Of girdles and sashes and
the great amount of attention given to
the management OF the waistline
these will interest every woman who
knows how much accessories add to
the toilette. Quite a plain white
dress of simple design, and even of or.
binary material. is lifted into the
sphere Of elegance by the pretty rib
bon garnitures designed by those who
manipulate ribbons.
From five to eight or ten yards of
ribbon are needed for any one of the
sashes shown in the group pictured
here.
In the first figure a new rosette is
made by grouping seven short-looped
bows together. The girdle about the
waistline is plain and slightly crushed.
The group of loops is finished with a
long loop and two pointed ends. This

The chin-strap Is a bit Of frivolity
one should try out before wearing.
For some faces IL Is quite impossible,
and for others is is a charm. Both 1t
and the velvet bride under the hair
are shown in the picture. The latter
Is featured on hats designed for young
wearers.
There is any number of shapes in
which these lace and net hats are de-
veloped. The fabric is shirred to a
frame Of fine wire and they require
the careful work and experience of
a professional milliner. Such hats
arc pretty with afternoon costumes
in any color or white. and If one Is
to have but one hat for dress, no other
style is more commendable.
