We always advise people who have

doctor. But to those who do not wish
to do this We will say: try the mix
ture Of simple buckthorn bark, gly-
cerine, ETC., known as Adleri-ka. This
simple new remedy is SO powerful
that JUST ONE DOSE relieves sour

stipation INSTANTLY. People who

OF CLASSIC
DANCE FORESEES ITS
ULTIMATE ADOPTION
Miss Domino Marini Says
Modern Steps Will Lose
Vogue, Which at Best Is
EvanesCent.

within three years" said Miss DOM
ina Marini, premiere danseuse, every
body will be doing classic dances. They
are not difficult. and will come into their
own when people take them UP and learn
what they are like in their pursuit of
dancing novelties"
Miss Marni has tho stellar dancing
part in Pilates Daughter" at the Chest
nut Street Opera House. She appears in
the Roman dances that We're the prevail
ing mode 1000 years ago, in which time
the scenes of the play are laid.
The modern Dances" she said, after
starting out badly have developed into
very graceful and altogether delightful
past!mes. But the novelty is bound to
wear off and people grow tired of them.
This will come, l should say, in two or
three years Then will come the turn
OF the classic dances, for the world at
large, having tasted the joys of dancing,
will not abandon il. 1t is simply ques-
tion Of variety. that is all.
Everybody should be able to do them.
They ar" an expression Of feeling and
all that is essential is a thorough under
standing Of the spirit Of them. To dance
as one feels is surely easier than to
school oneself in the complicated Sc
queuccs of mechanical steps such as q
proficiency in the modern dances requires.
Even II the classic dances do become
fad, l d0 not mean 10 say there will be
many grSt dancers. The great exponcnts
OF the modern dances are fow and far
between. But l do believe that the aver
age classic dancer will be just as pro-
ticient and just as easily so as the aver

PRESIDENTS SWEET
MEMORIES CLUSTER
ABOUT CITY OF ROME
In Quaint Georgian Town
He Fell in Love" With
Ellen Louise Axson and
Wooed Her.
By BURTON K. sTANpIsH

ROME, Ga, Sept SO,-When some one
in years to come writes the life history of
President Wilson much of it will be
woven around this little city where Ellen
Louise -AXson-Wilson, the President S
wife, was born, and where, on August IL,
1914. she was buried.
Almost every one here repeats at the
least solicitation beautiful little stories
about the President love affair" with
Miss Axson." Almost every one knows
that the President was formally intro
duced 10 her here in the First Presby-
terian Church, where her father was pas.
tor for Il years. And many relate how,
beside the Third Street Bridge over the
Onawah River, President Wilson proposed
to the minister's daughter
When ono knows that the President
fell in love" with Mrs. Wilson here, that
he courted her here, that he pledged his
life TO her here, one can understand why
he, as President OF the United States.
should travel 100 miles away from Wash
ington 10 bring her to her tinal resting
place.
The Presidents feeling is believed to be
exactly as expressed by his brother-n-
law, Professor Stockton ANsOn, in a tele-
gram after the funeral to sister Of
Mrs. Wilson, who was in in Oregon.
When the funeral party was on the
telegram to his sick sister:
Everything was beautiful We left sis
ter with father and mother
And they did, for Mrs, Wilson was
buried in Myrtle Hin Cemetery beside her
father and mother.
While the President remembers meet
ing Mrs. Wilson here; in fact, he had
met and played with her years before
he was a young man, For one week,
when the President was only three or
four years old, Mrs Wilson's father ana
mother went TO Atlanta to visit Prcsi-
dent Wilson's parents. There the Presi-
dent met Ellen ANson. then a cute baby
only year old, and for the whole week
refused to leave her. Ii is even stated
that the President cried bitterly when
the Axsons left Atlanta for Rome
A few years later Thomas Woodrow
Wilson and his father. also a minister,
went to Rome Ga. to visit the Rev.
Mr.. Arson. Here the President again
met the little girl. Then she was about
eight years old, and they ran hoops"
and played together along the Etowah
River banks.
But the future President vas destined
to make another shift. and from then
until he was a young lawyer living i'm
Atlanta he did not visit this city.
Atlanta is about IS miles from Rome.
One day when the President was carry
ing on his unsuccessful law practice he
journeyed over 10 Rome, spent the Sun
day here and attended the First Pres
byterian Church. At the service he no.
ticed a young woman whose beautiful
face attracted him and he asked 70 be
introduced.
II was another case Of "loYe at frat
sight" and II is declared that the Presi-
dent and Miss AxsOn had an under
standing" very shortly afterward. al
though they were not engaged for several
weeks Within a year or SO they were
married. and Rome. Ga, the scene OF
their early love, was endeared TO them
forever afterward,

Like Modern wife's" Letter

To the Editor Of the Woman's Page Eucnin0
Ledger:
Madam--I think the letter of Modern
Wife," as published in your paper Of
yesterday, is exceedingly sensible and
very much to the point. I only wish /
had the courage and the initiative to
take up a stand such as she does in my
home. My life seems 10 be one long
round of cooking and preparing meals,
and II l can find time once in three
months to go to the theatre with an
other woman, | feel very lucky. My
husband believes that the wfe's place
is in the home, and, indeed l have so
many household duties that his belief
works out very thoroughly. | have been
married for ten years, and have had
very little of the gaeties and pleasures
that most women of my age enjoy.
Modern Wife's" letter of yesterdays
date encourages me to take up a more
determined stand in the future, for 1
feel that l am growing old before my
time.

EXTREME MODELS
EXAGGERATE NEW
IDEAS IN FASHION
They Are Sign Posts Indi-
eating the Way, but Do
Not Constitute the Way
Itself.

a woman who shops with care and who
selects the modified styles rather than the
extremes runs no risk of finding herself
in possession of garments that have be-
come passe after few weeks wear.
Many of the models are an cxaggeration
of new ideas In fashion. In order to at
tract attention they must be conspicuous.
But they should serve as sign posts to
point the way rather than the way it,
self.
Only the woman who can afford to toss
a garment aside after appearing in 1t a
few times should buy anything bizarre or
extravaEant in style. Not even then, in
the opinion of some Of the arbiters of
good taste.
The shops now are full to overfowing
with Houses from the simplest to the
very elaborate and from the reasonable
in price to the most eXorbtant.
The tailor-made suit has returned to u.s.
at first unobtrusively, as IL afraid of its
welcome, but now steadily gaining in as
surancc
For morning wear with the tailored suit
there are any number of simple blouses
made Of batiste and fine linen and the
thin. soft silks.
For afternoon wear and for dress oc-
casOns there are biouses OF chiffon or
lace, or both.
LACE COVERS CHIFFON NOW.
Last season lace was yelled with chif-
fon, but now there is a reversement
turning inside out, for the lace covers
the chiffon in the now hlouses.
This feature is illustrated by the blouse
shown in todays picture. The pattern of
the lace shows to much better advantage
over chiffon than 1t would over satin or
silk.
The collar is high. and it is wired to
hold it in position. 1t is made of black
satin. faced with white satin, and the
black satin is used again for girdle and
cuffs
The sleeve is not only long, but very
long. The lace ruftle falls over the hand,
coming out from under the pointed cuff,
which is ornamented with a motif Of
soutache braid.
The wide girdle Of black satin is
treated in an Individual way. The inset
at the back. which Is defined by a piping
of the satin. Is quite heavily trimmed
with the braid.
Last season soutache braid was seen
on an occasional silk or chiffon blouse,
but this year. possibly owing to it's mill
tary character, it is having a genuine
vogue.
Very often the single width is used in
quite intricate designs. Again it is seen
in rows. set solidly or apart, as one
pleases.
The blouse pictured would not be a
difficult one to make at home. And an
original or individual design for the
braiding would give it distinction.
