The LocaI Military Given a Grand Farewell
Last W ednesday Evening.

4th Company Coast Artillery
Company, Salisbury's volunteer
military company, here last
Wednesday evening just before
the company left via Charlotte
for Fort Caswell. About seven
o'clock people of both sexes, col
ors and conditions began t. gath
er on the streets and there a.
waited the parade which took
place about eight o'clock. The
baggage having been sent to the
depot and loaded in cars, the

1y armed and made a very
fine soldielly appearance. The
big crowd followed to the e'epot
where after the roll cali. the

about $50.
The crowd at the depot was a
small sea of humanity occuj ing
every available space in ami out
about the depot, the bands
played, some yelled and some
sned tears, but the soldiers
seemed in good humor and we're
glad to be on their way. Several
special cars were hitched to the
train and on one of the cars
there was a sign reading thus:

CLEVER LITTLE VESTS ARE NOTABLE
BLAZER STRIPES THE RULE
Were Never So Startling or So Popular
as They Are in the Sweaters
This Year.

The newest of the new in sweaters
are showing very decided oriental
tendencies. And blazer stripes were
never before so startling or nearly SO
popular-in sweaters. Imagine, if you
will, a bizarre combination like Nile
green and Chinese blue, or reseda
green and American beauty, or old
gold and royal purple. Well, this sort
of daring color scheme is the last
word in sweaters, and for that matter
in all sports styles this season.
The blazer stripe effects are stitched
along the stripe Stimulating the box
pleat. Pinchback effects are notice
able, too. A belt placed at the normal
waistline and bit of gathering at the
back are responsible for this decidedly
chic treatment of the sweater coat.
The conventional sailor collar is still
holding it's own. Some collars there
are which show q marked tendency to
convertibility. For example, the alto
gether modest cowl may be loosened to
drop into the smartest of cape collars.
And lest the subject Of stripes be for
gotten altogether, all the sweater
stripes are not straight up and down.
Startlingly brilliant effects are
achieved by setting the contrasting
color in points, which begin at the
waistline and widen as they go down,
giving a slashed appearance that is
most fascinating.

SHIRTWAISTS WILL BE WORN
Women Will Not Give Up This Con-
ventionaI and Satisfactory Raiment
at Mere Dictate of Fashion.

It is quite evident that women will
wear the conventional shirtwaist this
summer, although the short satin
tunic has been the preference for the
winter. The delightful feeling Of
something fresh and washable next
the skin is not to be given up for
mere fashion. One might summarize
the exhibition Of spring blouses as
follows:
Heavy Chinese silk in narrow candy
stripes, in different colors, is made up
in severe style, with rolling collar
and pearl buttons.
Flesh-colored chiffon, georgette and
fine voile are trimmed with filet, Irish
crochet and honiton laces, and made
up with long sleeves, sailor collar and
groups of fine tucks in front.
A hundred blouses will have deep
sailor collar edged with lace, to ten
that are arranged otherwise at the
neck.
White crepe de chine is made into
blouses, with broad panels of filet lace
extending down the front. There is a
flat, turnover collar. The sleeves are
long and gathered into deep, tight cuffs
of filet lace.
White chiffon is knife-plaited from
shoulders to waist, with two wide
bands Of lace forming the front The
sleeves are full, with a tight cuff Of
lace and a wide band of it placed at
the back from shoulder to cuff.
Crude tones Of blue, red, green and
yellow in a thick weave of Japanese
silk are simply made and offered for
use with dark tailored suits.

Mannish Feature of New Styles
Wins Wide Popularity.
Many Of the "Weskits" Are Quite In.
dependent of Suits or Frocks With
Which They Are Worn.

The 1917 season is one Of contradic-
tons. It is quite easy one moment
to decide definitely that all apparel de-
veloped for femininity is distinctly
feminine, and in the very next mo-
ment run into something so mannish
that decision number one is completely
reversed.
In the lineup of things masculine
or mannish the clever little vests are
notable. Neckwear or accessory de-
signers and manufacturers have con-
tributed their quota to popularizing the
gilet or vest, as "weskits" galore have
been turned out quite separate and
apart from the suits or frocks they are
destined to adorn. A woman may
possess modish plain white vests of
pique, linen, broadcloth, ETC., in one
tone high color or rakish, sporty af-
fairs in broad and striking checks sug-

NEW KINKS IN NECK RIBBONS
Narrow Cravats, Weighted on End to
Hang Straight From Under COL
lar, Largely Worn.

The pretty little dainty rose or ro-
sette or ribbon ornament for the neck
to finish off the collar is virtually
passe, but that does not say that neck
ornaments are altogether out. They
have merely changed character. Now
they consist mostly of narrow cravats
weighted on the ends to hang perfectly
straight from under one of the novelty
collars, at the sides Of q collarless neck
line through lacings in the front Of the
frOck or blouse, or to tie once at the
center front. Striped, brocaded and
figured ribbons and braids of all kinds
are used for these fetching little vani-
ties, and while they are not by any
means exorbitant when bought all
made up in the shops, you can put
more character into them and match
them up better to your costumes when
you make them yourself.
Besides the ribbons and cotton
braids, one can crochet some very pref
ty cravats. The prettiest stitch re-
sembles somewhat the popcorn stitch
done in solid crochet. You make a
series of chains, loop them and fill the
end Of this loop with, say, four or five
doubles. . At the top of the last dou-
bles, you chain some more, about five
or six, and make double into the last
doubles to bring your thread to the
edge Of this next loop. Then you pro-
ceed to fill this again, repeating the
process ad libitum.
It is in the weighing Of these rib
bons that much originality can be
shown. Heavy metallic tassels for both
ribbons and bands Of plated metal
cords are good. Some lovely decorated
Japanese beads are not only used to
weight the ribbons, but are strung on
them as we'll. Chinese coins give an
other Oriental touch.

LITTLE HINTS FOR KNITTERS
corks Slipped on the Ends Of Needles
Will Be Found Handy in Arrest
ing Sliding Wool.

When you are doing any loose knit
ting where stitches are likely to slip
off the needle while the work is rest
ing, or even while you are working on
It, you will find some good corks handy
to have about, as they can be slipped
on the ends of the needles and serve
as efficient shoppers for the sliding
wool. The same is true for crochet; a
cork on the end of the crochet hook
will not only keep it in the work, but
will keep the hook from piercing every
available soft substance.
Where either knitting or crochet has
to be laid aside for time with a
stitch or stitches left loose, a safety
pin may be used to insure the safety
Of these loose stitches.
In Joining worsteds for knitting or
crocheting knots may be avoided If the

How many times we hear OF COM
paratively young persons passing away
when they should have lived to be ~
or 80 years Of age. This fatal work Is
usually attributed to the kidneys, as
when the kidneys degenerate 1t causes
auto-intoxication. The more in1url-
GUS the poisons passing thru the KID
neys the quicker will those noble or
rans be degenerated, and the sooner
they decay.
It is thus the wisest policy, to pre-
vent premature old age and promote
long life, to tighten the work OF the
kidneys. This can be done by drink
ing plenty of pure water all day long
and occasionally taking Anuric, double
strength, before meals. This can De
obtained at almost any drug store. You
will find Anuric more potent than hthia
for it dissolves uric acid as water does

Considerable amount of green is be-

suits it is not infrequent to see green

colored fabrics are almost always en-
ployed The greens seen are of the
dark and warm variety, somewhat like
sap green or lighter shades of Russian
green. The trimmings used with these
green's are reds, citron, black, buff.
