COSTS No MORE
Than OPERATION

Many people come to our office to
be cured of Piles, with the idea that
the cure is a very expensive one. They
have investigated among our cured pa
tients and have become convinced that
our painless absorbent method is far
superior to any brutal, bloody surgi-
cal operation or dangerous injection of
carbolic acid, and they conclude that
as our method Of curing Piles is so
far superior to other methods, it must
also be more expensive.
For these very pleasant surprise is
in store after they have had an ex-
animation and the price for a COM
plete, guaranteed cure is named. They
express surprise that such superior
treatment can be obtained at a price
no greater, and in some cases even for
less than is charged for a dangerous,
uncertain surgical operation, espe-
cialiy when the hospital fee, etc, is
added to the cost of a surgical opera
ton.
By our method there is no hospital
fee, the patient is not even put to bed
but may attend to his everyday du-
ties as usual while being cured. By
our method there is no chloroform, no
cutting, no burning, no ligature, no
carbolic acid, no danger of any kind
and practically no pain. We guaran-
tee cure in every case of Piles treated
or refund every dollar paid US. We
treat both men and women. Examina-
ton and consultation is free and con-
fidential. Drs. Kinsey & Allgover, 43

WROTE RECENTLY about the
motion picture actress personality. |
may now supplement that talk" with
an observation or two about individ-
uality. bring these two talks" to-
gether in this fashion since there is
often considerable confusion between
the two terms. Both are used rather
loosely and the one frequently EN-
ployed for the other. II
However, they do not mean a. all
the same thing. II is true that indi-
yiduality cannot amount to great
deal unless there is the strength of
good personality to enforce it, and
personality lis usually most striking
when Of an individual or distin3 tiye
type.
Personality, Of course. is what we
usually mean when we say man or
woman has magnetism. 1t Is that in
his or her makeup which makes it felt
by others. In the case If the orator
1t holds the people spellbound and
makes them believe with him irres-
pective of the soundness or fallacies
OF his reasoning. In the case of the
actress 1t causes them to laugh or
weep with her. While ] have never
known a case, it is possible that two
or more people might draw this pow
er or magnetism from qualities that
are identical in each OF their persons.
Individuality, however, belongs to
persons very own self. 1t is indi-
yidual because 1t is to be found no
where else 1t is the mark of distinc-
ton between man and all the rest
Of the world.

STRIPED Wells.

The vogue of stripes has reached
as far as wells. The newest veil to
be worn with a sports outfit is of
white chiffon. 1t is striped in color,
the stripe being OF pin width or as
broad as some of the awning stripes.
The beauty about the striped veil is
that it can be worn with the stripes
running in various directions, per-
pendicularly, horizontally or diagon-
ally. ....... 49,. r.:
While speaking of wells, it may be
well to mention that circular wells
which fit the hat tightly are very
much in favor for sailor shapes. These
are decorated with dots, scrolls and
floral patterns.
The nose veil, perhaps because of
its convenience, continues to be very
popular.
