with French tucks. It is cut after the
usual manner Of blouses, It's seams are
hemstitched, sleeves plain and roomy
and, so far, all the details Of its con-
structiOn are all like tried old friends
with whom we have long been famil-
lar. But just at this point the creator
Of this blouse thought Of adding an
Organdie collar and cuffs made of a
fine organdie edging, and Of shaping
the collar In a new way. Furthermore,
the dainty embroidered edge of the
organdie is lifted into prominence by a
narrow border Of black organdle.
The collar is high at the back and
rolls at the front, the wlry texture Of
the material making this pretty ADJUST
ment to the neck possible. The cuffs
are simply lengths of the embroidered
organdie, turned back and fastened at
the top with single pearl button. The
means by which its maker arrived at
such good ends in this blouse are the
simplest. But the touch of sheer black
In collar and cuffs is original and fine

MOTHERS SHOULD ABSTAIN.

Doctor COndi in "AlcohOl Danger-
Gus and Unnecessary Medicine" says :
"Never was there a more absurd or
pernicious notion than that wine, ale
or porter is necessary to nursing
mother in order to keep up her
strength, or to increase the quantity,
and improve the properties Of her milk.
SO far from producing these effects,
such drinks, when taken In any guam
tity, invariably disturb more or less
the health Of the stomach, and tend
to impair the quality and diminish the
quantity of nourlshment furnished by
her to her infant"

up the loyeliest of midsummer mill
linery. There never was a summer
when bridesmaids could be more en-
chantingly dressed.
In the group of hats shown in the
picture one, Of hair braid, is famil-
lar, picturesque type that never falls
to captivate everyone. 1t Is Of the
laciest amethyst braid, bound with
satin and with ties of amethyst col-
ored velvet ribbon and wreath OF
pink roses against the under brim at
the side and back. Would be pretty
In any Of the light colors.
A hat with braid crown and double
ilounce of plated crepe is very new
and an ideal for the bridesmaids wear.
1t has two bands of narrow ribbon
about the crown, tied In bow at
the front where a cluster OF small
flowers is posed. Imagine 1t in any
color that you may choose for a we'd
ding--it is sure to be pretty.

refinement.
Among other new models there are
noted several with collars shaped and
put on In the same way as that shown
In the picture. Often they are filet
lace and sheer embroidery combined
and sometimes Of two laces. They are
usually smaller. The high roll at the
back and the partially closed but cool
looking throat opening Is piece of
fine management.

CONDEMNS ALCOHOL.

Realizing the death rate caused d.
rectly and indirectly by the use of al
cohol, it seems a part Of the duty Of
the medical profession, whose work II
is to prevent as well as cure disease,
to use their efforts to discourage and
put stop to this evil, which is exact
ing such heavy toll from mankind.
Therefore, be it resolved, that the
Manatee County (Florida) Medical as
ISOLATION will discourage the writing
Of prescriptions for its indiscrimlnate
use.
Resolved, second, That alcohol as
a stimulant, can be eliminated from
the pharmacopoela without in any way
crippling the efficiency Of the doctors
armamentarium."

1.-THE Drink Question From the Jew
ish Point Of View" This was the sub
ject of an address In the Free Syna-
gogue, Carnegie hall, New York, by
Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, one of the
leading Hebrews Of the United States.
The Jews, he declared, believe in pro-
hibition-prohibition, not for the few
but for everybody.
"Rum," he said, ''is a blessing only
for the idle rich, for the extinction Of
their kind, and as a means to make
their perpetuatlon impossible, but to
Jews and non-Jews alike it Is mem
ace. To young Jewish men generally
say, Free yourselves Of the harrow
ing restraints of the cocktail and the
cigarette The prohibition question
is no Jewish question. 1t is an Amer
lean problem. Do not let us think
about ourselves, but let us think Of the
welfare Of the whole country. Let the
verdict be, Alcohol must die"
