SYRUP OF FIGS FOR
A CH|LD'S BOWELS
1t is cruel to force nauSeating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the ''dose" mother insisted
on castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found-
ed. Their tender little "insides' are
injured by them.
If your child's stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious California Syrup of Figs" It's
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en- the stomach, end that a teaspoonful
given today saves sick child tomor-
row.
Ask at the store for 50-cent bottle
of California Syrup of Figs which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv

Petticoats Are Wider.

Petticoats are gradually growing
wider at the foot, to keep pace with
widening skirts. The ripple skirt,
edged with fur. is all the prettier for a
ruff1ed silk petticoat beneath it, and
the new petticoats with plated frills
are very gay and coquettish affairs.
Pussy willow taffeta, soft in texture
and charming in coloring, is better
than messaline, which soon wears thin
and trays at the seams, and the frills
may be hemstitched or picot-edged to
add a final touch of distinction. Dan
cling petticoats of white or pale pink
pussy willow silk are aounced with
lace and ACCORDION plated chiffon,
with trimming of small silk roses.

Fur Is Overdone.

1t is almost relief to see suit
without a vestige of fur trimming, for
the use of fur threatens to be sadly
oyerdone. Effectively used and in
good quality, fur trimming is enorm-
ously successful upon street costumes.
but If one cannot have fur that Is at
least good of its kind, one would be
wiser to do without, and the number
of cheap fur-trimmed models shown is

MEANS GREAT SAWNG
PRETTY NEcKWEAR THAT MAY
BE MADE AT HOME.
Somewhat Expensive to Buy Ready to
Wear, But Materials Are Cheap
and the Work Really Amounts
to Little.

Never before was there such de-
mand for pretty neckwear; in fact,
the fancy, for it amounts to a craze.
Going through a stock of neckwear a
few days ago was astonished at the
simplicity of some models and could
not help thinking how much money
might be saved if the material were
bought and the pretty accessories be
made up at home, writes Helen Howe
in the Washington Star. True, one can
buy inexpensive neckwear that is very
pretty; but alas! only until it has
been laundered. Then it is poor lock-
ing and sleazy. The better qualities
OF neckwear are quite expensive. For
example, collar marked at $3.50 |
found was made of lace sold at so
cents yard at the counter. The two
were exactly tho same, both in tint
and quality. AS one yard makes the
collar the saving is obvious. 1t could
be made in half IN hour, too.
The lace is folded in two and nine
inches marked off at each end There
it is mitered to form the corners. The

The organdie collars are very popu-

ity will cost so cents, the cheaper
kinds quarter, while half yard OF
the material will make half dozen
collars in different sizes because the
material is SO very wide. For 60 cents
a yard very sheer organdie can be
bought. The collars are made double.
The usual finish is a picot edge with
or without row of hemstitching just
inside. This can be sent to the hem
stitchers to be done. In preparing the
collar for hemstitching the raw edges
are placed together and basted half
an inch from these edges. This is the
guide for the hemstitcher. When re-
turned the raw edges are cut away
and the result is picot edge. If an

Organize lends itself well to collar
and cuff sets, and so does pique, which,
by the way, is one of the fashionable
fabrics again. Not the stiff, old-fash-
toned kind, but soft, though heavy,
weave. The large cord is preferred
to any other.
The pique collar and cuff sets are
made with a machine stitch. The
material is always used double. The
edges are stitched upon the wrong
side. Then the collar is turned right
side out, and a second stitching is
put around the edge.

Return of the Train.

Trains are used on most of the new
evening gowns. For long time most
evening gowns, especially on younger
women, have been trainless. Some, to
be sure, have had trains. But now
most of the new ones have them. With
short skirts. all the way around, the
train gives a rather odd appearance.
for it hangs separately, from the waist,
over the very short skirt.

OUR NOTE.

| kSentiment seems to agree that the
note to Germany now being prepared
will not concern itself further with a
discussion OF principles but will make
definite declaration of future inten-
tons and close the matter to further
discussion, leaving to Germany the
determination lof whether she will
remain at peace with us by following
the dictates of human interest and
| international honor or will choose
another course by continuation OF
her Orduna and Lusitania crimes.
This sort of note in the present case
seems the wisest course to follow.
In the state OF affairs we do not
/ see any probability of the country's
accepting Germanys unofficial inter-
probation of the note. She can write
note as she pieases. but she cannot
dictate the Interpretation this nation
puts upon what she writes. II she
wants a different Interpretation. let
her write a different note. If she
wants us to mediate with England for
her let her state the fact In a public
and open document and not seek to
insult us to our face in diplomatic
note and ask privileges and make in
terpretations in secret. When you
slap rpan in the face you may place
any Interpretation you please on the
slap, but the Interpretation he places
on the act will decide his course Of
action. not the one you ask him to ac-
cept-unless you first make an
apology.
/ There Is nothing more to be gained
by negotiations-let them cease with
a definite statement of our intentions
in case of recurrence of the acts

In other words. 1t is not Chi
cago tRepubliean contest, with
two men splitting the party
rather than that either should
surrender to the other the prize
which they both coveted. The
fact that the Republicans and
Progressives are getting togeth-
err without any change in prin-
ciple or policy shows that 1t was
not principle or policy that rup-
tured the party.
The President and his Secrc-
tary of State were seeking to pro-
mote peace but they differed as
to the methods most likely to re-
suit In peace. They agreed to
disagree--they separated, each
respecting the others position.
Their purposes have not changed

cratic party stands.

TO enforce the law were ule segregat-
ed district and houses outside that
district ever present in Richmond.
Not only this. but the Police Board
was blamed. and Is now blamed for
allowing the district to continue. Not
only this. but the blame resting upon
this board for not enforcing the law
is not In any degree iessened because
former boards allowed the segregated
district to exist. Every Mayor, every
police commissioner, and every po-
lice officer who consented to the ex-
istence of this district and the pres
ence of outside houses of vice is de-
serving of blame and censure for fail
ure to enforce the law and for open
violation of oaths of office. There al
ways has been a great body of self
respecting citizens who blamed the
city officials for not enforcing the
law. This body of citizens has won
out against the lethargy and inactivity
of the authorities, and has won by
arousing public sentiment to demand
enforcement OF the law. It's victory
is manifest all through the history of
the campaign for the enforcement Of
the law. 1t was in realization and
recognition of this tremendous force
OF decent opinion that the present
Mayor made. as a plea for reelection,
promise to appoint a Vice Commits
sion, and made a promise to enforce
it's recommendations. The Vice Com
missions report not only represented
the facts, but expressed in the strong
est terms the opposition of the decent
citizenship of Richmond to such con-
ditions as prevailed without restric-
ton and still prevail in less amount.
Not only this, but the report of the
Council Investigating Committee rep
resents the views and opinions of a
great and prevailing body of citizens
in its declaration that the Police Board
and all officers who did not enforce
the law are deserving of censure. and
in it's recommendations that members
of the board not only should be CEN
sured, but should be removed from
office.
1t Is not true that nobody blames
the Police Board for allowing the seq
regated district, and records are on
file in the archives of the Police Board
itself. which shows that protests were
made against 1t. 1t is the sentiment
that opposed the segregated district
and the liberation of vice that has won
signal victory in the abolition of
that district: in a stricter enforcement
of the law against all forms of vice;
that is pressing for an even more
rigid enforcement of the law, and that
Is concerned with making an effective
warfare. not only against the tolera-
ton of vice, but OF incompetent men

government, and that hopes finally
that will make Richmond one of the
