It Isn't Your T0aUn---
It's You
The following suggestive poem was
made a part of the menu cards at the
banquet of the Commercial Club held at
Turner Hall recently:
If you want to live in the kind of town
Like the kind of town you like,
You needn't pack your clothes in grip
And start on long, long hike.
You'll only find what you left behind
For there's nothing that's really new;
It's knock at yourself when you knock
your town,
It isn't your town-it's you'll! !!
Real towns are not made by men afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead;
When everyone works and nobody shirks,
You can raise town from the dead.
And if, while you make your personal
stake,
Your neighbor makes one, too,
Your town will be what you want to see
1t isn't your town-it's YOU!

Point Of Beauty Which All Women
Should Do Their Very Utmost
to Attain.

1t is said by physiognomists the
mouth Is the feature which most truly
expresses the character. Mouths have
won more men for women than any
other feature. A man when away may
forget the glance of an eye. the shape
of the face. but some expression Of the
mouth still remains with him perma-
nently.
Many women who have no other
good feature seem to be beautiful be-
cause the mouth is bewitchingly at
tractive, and tells of a soul that Is
big and fine. 1t Is an easy matter for
US to do for the mouth what nature
did not do. OF course, we cannot
change the marking of the mouth. but
We can change the lines about It. No
mouth. no matter how beautiful its
contour. is attractive II it pulls down
or remains immovable In tight.
straight lines.
The mouth is the most mobile of
all our features. 1t Is claimed that
those who talk. sing and laugh fire.

What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BIB RIGHT TO

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of se.
rious illness, makes q chemical analysis
of the patients urine. He knows that un-
less the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are sure
to follow. Therefore, it is particularly
necessary to pay more attention to the
health of these important organs.

remarkable success a. kidney remedy ID

Many of the new hats are almost en-

Sometimes the crown is covered

Pastel colors in ribbons are used

times narrow ribbons are used

new jackets. there are also revers that
run down to the chest and sometimes

Here and there one sees In the new
gowns some remarkably lovely mate
rails which we will not be able to
duplicate in this country. Barring
these, there is a lack of new materials.
and it is probable that this season
our dressmakers will not encounter
one of their most serious obstacles In
copying French models, which Is the
inability to secure enough OF the ma
terial in the original gown.
This Is the reason that your dress
maker may have persuaded you in
the past to have your French model
copied in another color and fabric;
you were not aware that she could not
get the original material in this coun-
try and that she had not ordered
enough of it from France to satisfy
the demands Of her patrons.
