The Dyspeptic
a Few Pertinent Suggestions for Suf'
ferers From Digestive
Ailments.

Hardly any class of sufferers in this
world is more in need of sympathy
than those afflicted with dyspepsia.
Some relief from this depressing all
ment can be obtained by temporary
fasting-but only at the expense of
strength.
A much better way is to take spe-
cial pains with the diet, cutting out
injurious drinks and heavy foods, and
using a light, easily digested article
of diet, such as matted milk, instead.
But there is a great difference in
matted milks-and satisfactory re
suits cannot be expected with inferior
brands. One cannot go wrong in in
sisting upon "Borden's Matted Milk in
the Square Package"-put up by the
same people who have made the Bor-
den's Eagle Brand of Condensed Milk
b household word throughout the
world.
AS evidence of its superiority over
all other brands, Borden's Matted Milk
has just been awarded "The Grand
Prize" at the San Francisco Expo
highest possible award =
and it is the only matted milk to be
had at the soda fountain concessions
at both expositions.
Do not put up with substitutes, but
insist upon the best-"Borden's Malt
ed Milk in the Square Package" AT

silver and spray of the silver blooms
at the corsage. A more delectable
costume were hard to imagine unless
il be a vision of blush rose tulle whose
fluffy skirt is caught high up on the
left side with long loops of purple
velvet ribbon over petticoat of gold
en- gauze. A wide girdle of the gold
is held in its proper place by fluff
of the tulle over one shoulder and
a band of the purple over the other.
Embroidery in gold and silver
threads and steel and copper beads
is another favorite method of trans
muting metals into garments and, in
deed, a most striking one in connec-
tion with the lustrous velvets that
are to be mode for fall and winter
wear. Cunning little velvet hats like
the bell crowned beavers of the beau
ty OF old have huge made buckles ct
gold or silver gauze and hatbands
of the same. Flat velvet shapes in
LACK or purple with wreaths of bright
oolored yarn flowers combined with
gold and silver fruits are a dazzle of
gorgeousness. They are simply bound
to go to your head. Most of them
are bound in metallic material, too.

For the dancing parties that begin
in early September a charming frock
is this one, made of white taffeta and
hand beaded novelty. The lace forms
hood effect at the back of the waist
and falls gracefully into the tunic over
the cream white taffeta skirt.
The waist line is just bit above
the regular line, and the bottom of
the skirt is finished with the puff
scalops that are to be so popular
curing the coming season. The black
velvet bow with streamers dropping to
the skirt bottom give very good line
and make a pretty contrast against

THREE TAKEN AS
SMUGGLER SUSPECTS

Three smugglers We're arrested and
cans of opium confiscated last night
by Inspector Macumber of the United
States customs service at CaleXico
The smugglers gave the names of
Buntaro Hoshi, Manuel Pesquica and
AL Pesquica. Two ale Mexicans and
the other is Japanese.
The trio were brought to the coun-
ty Jail last night and will be held
there pending action by the customs
men.
Officers at CaleXico fave been
watching the 3 as smuggler suspects
for some time, and last night when
they boarded stage bound for FL
Centro customs officer comman-
deered the car and caused the driver
to proceed to the custom house
There the suit case was opened and
the 5 cans of opium discovered. One
of the men carried about $40 in cur
rency, the other 2 only having a small
amount of money in their clothing.
The Jap, the officers believe, was
used merely as tool, lured into the
Illicit proceedings by promises of lib
eral reward if the venture ended sue
cessfully. Not an unwilling tool, for,
according to the story he told off
GERS last night, he knew that some
where in the suit case the tins of
opium nestled beneath the folds of
clothing to prevent them from rat
Ting.
One of the MeXicans had smuggled
the dope across the line, he said this
morning, after buying it in Mexicali
for $31 can. Then it was decided
to attempt to bring it here last night
and the trio loaded the tins into a
suitcase and boarded a stage.
This is the second attempt within
the past few weeks of smugglers to
transport smuggled dope from Calex
leo to FL Centro in a stage. The last
capture made by Inspectors Harris
and Buck netted nearly $4,000 worth
of opium.

New York, Aug. 28.-The fall fash
ions are simply metalliferous, II you
ask me. Mere husbands are used to
the alchemy that turns their perfect
ly good gold and silver into frills and
furbelows for the fair sex, but now,
10 and behold, frills and furbelows
are turned into gold and silver. In
the cary showing of fall modes there
is hardly a hat, a wrap or frock
that doesn't flaunt a bit of galloon, a
glitter of gold and silver embroid-
cry or a twist and fold of lustrous
metallic gauze about it somewhere.
For evening gowns the metallic ma
terials are most effective, especial
ly the gorgeous brocades of old blue
and gold. silver and old rose, and
many wondrous color combinations.
They look like products of the looms
of romance and seem to give the lie
to the broad hint that pastel tints
would be the only things in the color
line for the coming season. These
magnificent metalline materials are
naturally made up on the simplest
straight lines, depending solely on
their own beauty for adornment.
The princess lines that are already
casting their curveful shadows before
are perfect when carried out in these
fantastic fabrics. The straight hung
medieval effects are also good. OBJ
viously these gorgeous garments are
to be worn only by the most stately
and Amazonan of the sex, but let
not the petite and clinging vine de-
Ispair. She may metallize as we'll by
touching up a frothy frock of net
with high lights of gold or silver
gauZe.
Such a fascinating confection is an
evening gown of white tulle. The
Imultilayered skirt has its inner layer
bound around its ankle length with
fold of silver gauze while the short
er outer layer is caught up in kirtle
effect ON each side with a cluster of
silver gauze garlands. The bodice

MAKING Peace a Gigantic Task
lFrom DC WashLngton Postl

The world applauds every effort
made by impartial friends Of the ma
tions at war TO devise ways and
meahs for bringing about peace.
The most sincere peace-lover,
however, must confess that the pros
pect of reaching an understanding is
remote at this time.
The considerations which force con-
tinuanee of the war quite outweigh
the demand for peace. The nations
are not exhausted by any means, and
in the absence of decisive action in
the field Il is not to be presumed that
they will consent TO a peace that at
hest would leave many vital matters
undecided or unsatisfactory ADJUST
ed.
Russia. although beaten back with
terrific blows, cannot be said to be
defeated in a final sense. She is not
forced To make peace. On the con-
trary. the reorganization Of eXecu-
tive forces in that country indicates
that the people themselves are de-
termined 10 press the war. Far in
the interior il Is proposed to raise
new armies and equip them with
arms and munitions now being gath
cred together. The approach of Win
ter Is likely to rescue the fleeing Rus
SLAMS from what might otherwise he
humiliation Operations cannot be
carried on on such a gigantic scale
at any rate. and any breathing spell
at all will be to the advantage of the
Russians.

As To War Indemnifies
CFrom the wall Street Journall

victory could only be achieved by OBJ
literating the British navy. So far as
military advantage at sea is concern
ed, the German submarine efforts
have been negligible The greatest
victory of the war, Overshadowing
all the others combined was achiev-
ed on the day the war broke out by
the British navy. without firing
shot.
Trafalgar was a decisive victory.
But for ten years afterwards Brit
ish commerce suffered far more heav-
lily from fast frigates and pri-
vateers, than it has done from subma-
rine raids. The proportionate effect
upon British trade, measured IN terms
of national wealth and population OF
a century ago, year by year, was Tar
more serious than all the submarines
have done.
What hope. then, is there for an
indemnity from Great Britain2 And
if the Teuton alliance is defeated
how will Germany indemnify Belgium,
by any conceivable form Of financing'
That some such compensation will be
demanded as a first condition OF peace
may be assumed; and it is fair to re-
member that in spite Of ths stagger-
ing war debts peace will automatl-
cally improve all national credit.
But if the German minister of f.
nance has nothing better to promise
his people than indemnities so re-
mote. when the allies are obviously
playing the game for keeps, he viii
soon find that he has but an iliusory
basis for his financing.

our own people. and would not be be-
lieved by people outside of the Della
ware peach belt The writer did not
mean to take space to picture the
beauties of the peach cron. but the
temptation is great Our purpose is to
aid, if possible, in solving the problem
OF what to do with these peaches.
They can be grown IN perfection, but
the best of them packed in carriers by
expert packers, did not clear the
growers over 75 cents per basket, and
most of them cleared less than so
cents per basket There are all sorts
of suggestions. one is that they be
sent to Wilmington. a three-four Jour-
ney from central Kent, and a part OF
the heavy freight saved. Another sug-
gestion is that the growers organize
and have a store or selling place in
two or three of the nearby cities,
where their peaches are sold. Another
I plan IS the auction sale being tried In
New York We don't know what is
best. but we do know that the best
peaches grown in the world are grown
IN Kent county. Delaware, and that
the growers are not finding profitable
markets for these same peaches. What
