TT Is generally agreed by doctors that the
I primary trouble with the health Of women
and young girls is that they are careless
of the condition of the bowels. There is
nothing so important in this regard as habit
and system The growing girl should be
especially looked after. Girls and women of
all ages will find that by regulating them
selves they can avoid the free OF cosmetics
and such things, and that obesity Is reduced
by bowel elimination and weight increased by
proper assimilation.
The right laxative for women as it Is for
children and old folks, who should not use
harsh pills. salts and other strong cathartics,
is that gentle AID mild laXative-tonic. Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. 1t acts on the prin-
ciple that by gently regulating the bowels the
digestive muscles will soon again be trained
to do their work naturally and unaided.
Thousands OF families use 1t regularly, and
1t has been the standard in good American
homes for two generations. Mrs. Ella Robi-
son, Of sos Trombley ST.. FIT. Worth, T-~
says she will never be without DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsil,. She uses II herself and gives
1t to her little girl, and believes she will not
need the doctor SO often now. Mrs. T. Blue
of 442 College St. Cape Girardeau Mo-,
makes Syrup Pepsin her family remedy and
says she would not be without 1t for twice
its price.
You will find Syrup Pepsin very effective as
a remedy Tor constipation, dyspepsia, bilious
ness, belchins, gas on the stomach foul

sell 1t at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle.

But there was the seaweIl dangling

He felt once more terribly alone, but

afraid at being alone with TINS awtul

and find some one and tell lt-speak II

He wanted to hide behind sS mpathy-
to feel that some one else knew what ne
had done and did not SHRINK away. ne
wanted, as it were, an accOniphce after

he laid his soul bare and tried by so
doing to regain some self-i aspect.
He felt that he would go mad II ne
kept it locked up in him. he couldn
go on. He couldn't face it another day
by himself.
A tap on the door broke into the
maelstrom Of his thoughts.
'WellH'
The handle ratified.
Everard unlocked the door.
The man came i'll. VIII you be uln-
ing here tonight, sir?'
Yes"
Very good. sir. Will you have it
here or downstairs, siT?'
Are my father and mother dining?
No, sir"

Very good, sir The door closed
quietly.
His father and mother! He had for
gotten them. They were so remote-so
entirely in a separate existence of their
own that they never entered into his
calculations, except in SO far as money
was concerned.
Now he snatched at the thought of
them with a pitiful readiness. Other
men made. pals of their fathers and
mothers. Other men confided every
thing to them gladly, and before any
one else in the world. He had never
been able to do so, because he was not
wanted. He knew that. He knew that
he was an accident-a regrettable mis-
take.
But now, perhaps, things might be
different. Perhaps he had not tried to
make them alter their opinions about
him.
This was the turning noint. For the
first time in his life he needed his father
and mother. He wanted to see love In
their eyes when he entered the room
He wanted 30 feel that he was not shut
out.
He slipped out of his dressing gown
and put on his evening clothes. Yes,
he would go down and wait up for
them. He would see if there was no
little thing he could do for them when
they got back. He would begin to try
and break down the barrier.
He caught up his cigarette case and
went down to dinner in the big, silent
room with hope in his heart.

Fashions Best Bet Is
Coy Pantalets
By MARGARET MASON.

What boots it that her skirts are slit;
No benefit Cne gets,
Since POlly's painting to be chic
And wearing pantalets.
NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-Yes. you meet
them at every turn, or perhaps one
should say curve. The coy pantalet
is now fashions best bet. The regu-
lation manner of painting according
to Dame Nature used to be from the
chest out, but Dame Fashion has
changed all that and it is now the
smart thing to do your painting from
the knee down.
The most startling peach of a pair
IS shown in flesh color crepe de chine
and lace. The deep ruffles of the
crepe de chine, completely veiled in
frothing TufTles of shadow lace. are at
tached to pink ribbon-covered garters
which fit just over q dimDled knee and
there you are. Others have ruffles of
accordion pleated chiffon or crepe de

gsrnished with sprays Of tiny rose

cerise, for pink hair is the pink OF
fashionable perfection.
The fluffy neck and wrist frills are
now being replaced by frills starched
to the stiffness of cardboard and ironed
out to irreproachable smoothDess. Very
severe and masculine and tailor-made
they are and bound to be beloved Of
suffragettes. Most Of them are round
and flare out stiffy above the coat
collar and below the coat sleeve, while
others take the shape of the collars af-
fected by Dumas and Volraire With
these the wrist frills are absent.
Soft Velour Ruffes Are
Latest Hint From Paris.
If you have a last seasons gown of
charmeuse or crepe de chine that needs
furnishing up, the addition OF two
violet ruffles midway of the skirt above
the knees will transform it into a 1913
model. These soft velour rutfles are,
indeed, charming additions to an af-
ternoon gown, and are quite the latest
of the late hints from that dear Paris.
Ostrich feathers are coming into their
own again and with the law as well
as fashion on their side, are sending
aigrettes and birds OF paraoIse on the
wing Almost every chapeau rears aloft
an ostrich plume Of brilliant hue. they
crest the waves of the evening coiffure
and even the low-cut evening bodiceS
are edged with their airv fronds.
Hats still continue in their Liliputian
proportions, and even with the decollete
costume they refuse to give way to the
large hat q Ia Gainsborougn. Some OF
the little, close-fitting models Of fur
and velvet are so snug that, particu-
larly when of brown rur. they give
the startling impression that the wearer
is bareheaded. 1t is rather ap untor-
tunate fashion for the mOon-faced lady
whose countenance is built on broad
and sweeping lines. OF course. she must
be in the mode with the result that
many is the pint bonnet on quart
phySiognomy.

New Anklet of Fur
Adds Chic Appearance.

While you are bowling at the feet of
fashion. it is fitting to mention a chic
new ankle OF fur which was worn late

will readily infer that this anklet in

dear me, no. Your hair also must have
its little dash of lavender.
If your frOck is OF azure, the mere
fact that your blood is blue also won't
put the blue ribbon of approval upon
you. Your coiffure, as well, must have
the desired Cerulean tinge. All this is
accomplished by a nice collection of
