 TONIGHT, A TONIC

The tired neutral' is promised a tonic in High Jinks', which Arthur Hammerstein will present at the Ly- ceum tonight. Rudolf Friml has fur nished a musical score, whose num- bers are said to be light, airy, tuneful and catchy. A plot, said to be invig- orating to the highest degree, was contributed by Otto Hauerbacn, who added Three Twins and Madame Sherry to the world of gaiety. The story. has to do with a magic perfume which raises whomsoever gets a whiff of it to the seventh heaven of nilarity An American nerve specialist practic- ing in Paris tries it's virtues on young female patent, and it operates so we'll that the young woman throws her arms around his neck and kisses him raptuously. Her husband witnes- ses the proceedings, and, skeptical of the magic of the perfume, decrees that either the doctor shall die or else sur render Mrs. Doctor to him to pay hug for hug and kiss for kiss. The doctor agrees to the latter proposition, but seeks to delude the F'renchman by passing off 8 young actress as his wife. Seats at CrowelIs.

Skin foods and face creams and powders cannot make woman beau tiful, because beauty lies deeper than that-it depends on health. In most cases the basis of health and the cause of sickness can be traced to the action of the bowels.
 The headache, the lassitude, the sal low skin, and the lusterless eyes are usually caused by constipation. An ideal remedy for women, and one that is especially suited to their delicate organisms, is found in Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, d mild laxative com- pound, pleasant to the taste and free from opiates and narcotic drugs of every description. Mrs. Gertrude ; Jordan, 522 North Liberty street, In- ! dianapolis, Ind, says: Tt is simply fine; I have never been able to find anything to compare with pr. Cald-

(From Denver Post.)

A little cold-boiled love, prepared according to recipe which is to fol- low, will have a profound effect upon any husband-except Hate" one. It is not for widows, anyway. The rules have been formulated by a Denver gentleman whose wife applied them. At his own request, his name is with held from publication until the ali- mony is settled.
 Rule Wait until he has read about the latest defeat of his favorite belligerent nation, then rush into the breakfast room like whirlwind, throw your arms around him while he is trying to drink coffee, and cause the latter to slop down his sleeve.
 Rule Eff he fails to respond af- fectionately to the Rule 1 treatment smile girlishly upon him, sit on his left knee and speak to him as if he were a baby-which will remind him of the honeymoon and af the fact that it's his own fault he married you. If you don't remember any baby talk this formula will usually serve: Docs um love um's little wifey when her pills un's coffee?''

 Answer-That depends somewhat on the size of the class and the age of the pupils. For a child a very simple dress of some dainty tain material (preferably nothing elabor- ate or expensive0 is suitable. For

A neighbor of mine had to give up a long looked forward to trip last week. Her little boy was sick--one of the exasperating upsets that the young stomach is so liable to.
 The deprivation was particularly trying because the mother in ques- tion had been unusually careful of the youngsters diet for the last week or so in order to avoid this very contingency.
 You may think that shows that too much care defeats its own pur- pose, but you are not right this time. You see, the youngster went over to see his chum late on Saturday after noon. The family were having an early Saturday dinner and piled him with baked beans. He liked them, but the liking was far from mutual, hence the lost trip.
 Think of Offering Baked Beans to a
 . r.~ Child! ... .-t--
 Of course he has been told not to eat everything that is offered him, but far bigger, blame, it seems to me, attaches to the woman who offered another woman's child anything with such a fearful reputation as baked beans.
 Indeed, I can't see why women especially mothers who know what trouble they may cause, will persist in this habit of feeding other peo- ples children. Of course it is em. barrassing if the neighbors child hap pens to be present when your chill dren are being fed, not to offer him sou etbipg hut unlesa the food is something unquestionably harmless | it is much kinder.
 My neighbor is extremely consci- entious about this matter, herself, and always insists that the visiting child go home and ask it's mother, or herself telephones to the mother.

HIGH LINKS" AT
 PARSONS TOMORROW

High Jinks,' the musical jollity which Arthur Hammerstein will pre- sent at the Parsons theater tomorrow. matinee and night, concerns itself with a magic perfume guaranteed to create general hilarity. This plot is thickened by the introduction of an irate Frenchman, wandering grass widow, and a certain doctor whose amiable disposition prevents him from resisting the embraces of fair fe- male patient under the influence Of the perfume. The hilarity mounts higher and higher as the complica- tions become more and more tangled Throughout it all there are freely sprinkled catchy melodies, and a. pretty chorus of joyous girls adds to the liveliness with song and dance and laughter.

Household Notes

A good present for the woman with garden is pair of hand shears or some other hand tool.
 In planning your Christmas pres ents don't forget that appropriateness is the first and last requirement..
 The scientific kitchen has in it no articles for ornament-it should sim ply be clean, fresh and businesslike.
 Marble can be beautifully cleaned if rubbed with slice of lemon dipped in salt. Leave for an hour and wash off,
 The habit of eating plenty of hard food is excellent, not only for the teeth, but for the shape of the jaw and face.
 When plants are frost bitten put them at once in a cool, dark room, then shower them well with cold water.
 Equal parts of linseed oil and turpentine applied with a cloth to white paint will remove finger marks easily.
 Flowers sent by parcel post, will keep better if they are wrapped thick ly in newspaper with a few bits of ice in it.
 Young chicken is delicious if dipped in batter before frying. The batter is made of egg, milk and flour, with seasoning. Wilted celery will come up to a delightful crispness if it is plunged deep into cold water for an hour be- fore it is served. If a cane chair seat is sagged, but l not broken, it can be frightened by | scrubbing with boiling hot suds. Set
 in the sun to dry. 1 Cabbage cut as it would be for
 cole slaw, put into cold water to crisp, ] then served as a salad with French 1 dressing, is delicious. 1 Black silk can be very success 1 fully washed in the water which pared l potatoes have been boiled in.. It
 stiffens and freshens both. l Much time would be saved in l threading underclothing With ribbon 1 if a piece of thin tape were tackled 1 on the end of the colored ribbon be- l fore it is pulled out for the garment i to be washed. Pull the tape through, , let it remain in place of the ribbon
 while the garment is laundered, and,
 when you wish to rethread, tack the 1 new ribbon on to one end of the
 tape, pull the tape out and in a mo- l ment you have the ribbon in place.

The plain gored skirt that flares abun- dantly is one of the most important of the autumn. This 'one is cut in five pieces with the front edges hemmed and Tapped one over the other. It is smart skirt and at the same time, simple and easy skirt to make. Since the pattern gives both the seams and the basting line, it is a very simple matter to cut it and to sew it, for one has only to cut on the outside edges of the pattern, and the basting line being maj ed, it is impossible to lose the lines. The skirt is a favorite one both for the coat suit and for the indoor gown and it makes up handsomely in Silk as we'll as in wool. The finish can be made at either the slightly raised or natu- ral waist line.
 For the medium size, the skirt will re- uuire, 6I yds. of material 27 or 36 in. Wide, 3A yds. A or. 54, if the material has up and down; AZ yds. a7 in. wide, 3M yds. 36, 25s yds. 54, if the ma tteriaf has neither figure nor nap. The skirt is 2 yds. and 2S in. wide at the lower edge.
 The pattern No. s7S8 is cut ;n sizes from 2A to 34 waist. 1t will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Department o' this paper, on receipt of ten cents.
