Abbeville progress. (Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, La.) 1913-1944, 1917-05-12


In opposition TO the frocks that are
absolutely straight in line, there are
many ways of draping skirts to give
that slight pufiness about the hips
which is now one of the accepted modes
in the dressier type of frock for after
noon and evening wear. One Of the
latest ways is by gathering the
straight lower section of a skirt to a
yoke, and leaving the sides free to form
looped draperies which fall very grace
fully into position when the soft plia
BILE materials are used. An illustration
of this charming style is shown in the
sketch. The dress is of pongee trim
med with narrow bands of ribbon.
The waist of this costume is made
with kimono sleeves of the loose, bag
gy type, the kind that were in fash
ion some time ago. The unusual v
shaped collar and faring cuffs add the
! note of distinction which all such sim
pie styles require.
Sometimes long, straight TUNES oil
apron effects take the place of draper
les in frocks of silk. chiffon or Geor
yette. A beautiful dress of white satin
for bride was made with long plea
I'd apron of fine white net edged with
! white glass beads. The transparent
glass beads are now being used for the
bead work, which is strongly in evid

Bright, colorful ginghams in very

entire summer dresses and suits. II

this kind is exceedingly attractive fol

Oct. q, a con-

are located at Greensburg.
Oryille Fletcher Of Keokuk has been

Merchants VIII Ask Local People to
Buy Christmas Presents Early
in December and Early
In the Day.
WILL ASSIST THE CLERKS
They VIII be Less Tired and Christ
mas Will Not Mean 5usbear
as it-Has In Former
Years.

The shop early" propaganda has
reached Keokuk and local merchants
think favorably OF the idea which is
that people shall shop early in De-
cember and early in the day
Two OF the local merchants have
received notices and advertisements
from other cities, where this shop
early idea is being pushed. The Con-
sumers Ieague of New York is one OF
the big concerns behind the movement.
Other leagues and organizations of re-
taiiers in the country are pushing the
idea, and the local merchants want
to take 1t up and probably will pre-
sent something of this sort for con-
sideration at the next meeting of the
Retailers league.
The idea is to get the Christmas
trade not only 10 shopping early in
the month but early in the day. In
this way the clerks are spared lot
of extra work just before closing time,
when they are unusually tried; bundle
wrappers and delivery boys are not
worn out with late hours. People can
just as well shop early in December
as wait until December "a, the local
merchants claim TO have proved and
they are going to urge that people
shop early in the day.

MEAT INJURIOUS

Take Tablespoonful Of Salts II Back
Hurts or Bladder
Bothers.

We are a natien OF meat eaters and
our blood is filled with uric acid, says
a well-known authority. who warns us
| to be constantly on guard against kid
ney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood OF this irritating acid, but
become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminatiye tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel
like Jumps Of lead, and you have
stinging pains in the back or the urine
lis cloudy, full OF sediment, or the blad-
der is irritable, obliging you to seek
relief during. the night; when you
have severe headaches, nervous and
dizzy spells, sleeplessness. acid stom-
|ach or rheumatism in bad weather. get
from your pharmacist about four
ounces Of lad Salts; take tablespoon
full in q glass Of water before break

tons to flush and stimulate clogged
kidneys, to neutralize the acids In

irritation. thus ending urinary and
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot

cent Whitewater drink, and nobody
can make mistake by taking . little

and active.

The work was one OF the most elab-
crate the state has ever given. While
IN the city they visited Fl Sheridan
and the Great Lakes which is won
derful sight at the present time on ac-
count Of war conditions. At TT. Sheri-
dan they have four thousand officers
in training with an exact reproduc-
ton OF the French trenches and the
French officers here drilling. The trim
thfrty-four miles Of Sheridan road,
was one grand and beautiful sight.
In all OF lodge rooms, theatres, stores
and places Of business, there is ever
a great display OF patriotism. We
heard DR.. Gunsaulus at the Auditorium
and also attended the great Moody
tabernacle with Paul RAIDER of Wy
oInins, az evangelist.
The autumn social given by the Of
hcers OF the Althea Bible school class
was very pleasing affair. The house
was beautifully decorated IN autumn
tints with touch Of halloween. The
evening was made merry by an auto
mobile Journey with partners. also
the charges given were very fine.
The musical hits were introduced by
Walter Scott and sister, Miss Matte
and were five in number. The re-
Treatments consisted OF pumpkin pie,
ginger bread, cider and coffee.
The boy scouts gave a demonstra-
ton of their work az the Congrega-
uonal church which wac very fine and
very instructive 10 those interested
In the work.

COAL SHORTAGE
NOT BAD HERE
Commissioners Have Had Only a
Few Complaints So Far
No Hard Coal
Here

There is a little coal shortage in
Keokuk, but the city commissioners
have not thought the situation war
ranted taking over the city's supply
in order to have 1t properly distrib-
uted. So far they have had only a
few complaints from parties having
trouble to get fuel. However, there
is no hard coal In town. They are
hoping that Indian summer will soon
put in it's appearance, and that this
will help put the coal scare to sleep.
They hear that both Burlington and
Ft. Madison are much worse OFF than
Keokuk.
