nary /, 1923, you will get your money back

quarterly. They may be redeemed before
maturity at any post-ofice with interest to
about 3 per cent.

Do You Sleep weIl2

To be at his best a man must have
sound, refreshing sleep. When wake
full and restless at night he is in no
condition for work or business during
the day. Wakefulness is often caused
by indigestion and constipation, and
is quickly relieved by Chamberlain's
Tablets. Try a dose of these tablets
and see how much better you feel
with a clear head and good digestion.

The Isabella Color.
cOm1Ortabl,

Once Spanish princess vowed not
TO change her lingerie till certain
war was won, and as that took many
months, the result was that fashion.
able Spanish ladies Of the time, who
looked 10 this princess for leadership
in the matter of dress, soon came TO
adopt a yellowish-brown sort Of linen
for their 'kerchiefs, fuckers, wlmples
and other similar apparel. The prin.
cess name was Isabella, and this
fashionable shade was known as Isa-
bella color. and one occasionally hears
this name applied In Paris even 10
this dag 10 sort Of yellowIsh-brown
that really does look Ike linen that
had been dedicated TO a laundryless
existence. Although we have had
every shade Of lingerie. we have not
vet had this color The next thing to
It, and something that surely wouldn't
appeal to all womankind, is the new
lingerie Of nickel-gray that has been
put on the shelves OF one or two of
the exclusive women's shops. There
is complete set Of this gray under
wear In crepe de chine.

Why the veil? Merely masculine
minds viii never figure out the answer
although they will have the rest of
time to ponder the question. Wells
were and are and will continue to be.
They are strictly feminine institution
and whether they are worn to add
charm to the face or to call attention
to charms already there, or for some
other reason, these are mysteries only
the yelled lady can solve for us. But
they make opportunity for capricious
ornanentation and for varlety--two
very good reasons for the loyalty with
which women favor them.
New face wells this summer are near

hexagon-shaped mesh appears to be

a tam Of white corduroy, one Of
the "bIue devil" models that embodles

the coat in color. Where something

There are middies, smocks, sweaters
and coats for outdooring, that Is, for all
sorts Of sport and recreation wear.
And their comrades are skirts, bloom
ers or breeches according to the sort
of service to be required of them. For
tennis and golf, skirts that will wash
again and again and come ont as fresh
and unfaded as when they were new,
have not been riyaled as yet by bloom
ers or breeches--for some other sports,
skirts are a thing Of the past. With
these washable skirts plain blouses are
worn and swagger little coats made Of
summer flannel, serge or other ma
terials-and, Of course, sweater or
sweater coats.

French and British Impressed by
Splendid Enterprise and
Initiation.
IEROIC DEEDS ARE PREDICTED
General Says American Spirit at
Critical Moment Served to Main
tain Morale Of French at
Chateau Thierry.

.
London. behavior Of the
American troops at Chateau Thierry
has demonstrated more than anything
that has happened on the American
front the splendid initiative and en-
terprise with which the American ar
my is endowed, and nothing has
aroused the keener enthusiasm. of the
commander, says the Daily Mail COR
respondent with the American army
In France.
He quotes an unnamed French gem
Eral as saying that the American spir-
t and enterprise at a critical moment
served to maintain the morale Of the
French troops around Chateau Thier-
"
Among the incidents OF the engage
ment the correspondent mentions Is
the steadiness and persistence of the
American machine gun fire In the
streets Of Chateau Thlerry. Company
after company of the enemy marching
four abreast, repeatedly tried to adj
vance, but recoiled sorely shattered
before the fire of the American gun
ners. The streets were strewn with
German dead and wounded and the
American officers estimate they in
flicted at least 1000 casualties.
Predicts Heroic Deeds.
When bridge across the Marine
was blown up, the correspondent adds,
the Americans were left on the north
ern bank with the enemy in front Of
them and the river at their backs. Car
rying their guns, the Americans de-
scended to the lower banks of the riv-
er, and under enemy machine gun and
artillery fire succeeded in reaching the
next bridge.
The correspondent predicts that
much will be heard OF the deeds Of
the Americans in the next few days,
and adds:
American troops fresh from the
United States continue to arrive with
regularity and in numbers more than
sufficient to justify renewed conf
dence in the ultimate triumph Of the
entente. The Americans at this mo-
ment are distributed over a very wide
front.
"In some sectors entire American
divisions form one unit, holding a
certain extent of line, while else
where they are brigaded with French
and British regiments. In the Lune-
vile and Toul sectors the Americans
hold very difficult sallents-in the
Tout sector completely dominated by
the German artillery on Montsec. The
Germans recently have been drench-
Ing these positions with gas, but the
Americans stood firm and won the
ready appreciation Of all observers"
The spirit and morale Of the Amer-
can soldiers wounded In the Cantigny
battle, 90 per cent Of whom will re-
cover, is wonderful. The first lues-
ton they ask the surgeon is;
"Doc, when will be able to 90
back after the Germans who fixed
me?"
Two young prlvateS were waiting
their turn to enter the operating-room
Of large American hospital in Paris.
One said:
Il have been over the top three
times, and 1t is the greatest sport ]
ever had. Fix me up quick because

HOW He WAS EMPLOYED
CoIored Man Explained to General
Clarke Exactly His Position
q With the Railroad.

An all too fast disappearing genera
ton of older railroad executives are
accustomed when recalling Gen. James
@. Clarke, for many years before his
death president Of the Illinois Central.
to speak of his stately courtliness, the
warm Southern tinge Of his hospitality
and the depth and breadth of his per-
sonal charity,which ever kept him in
lean purse. But the general, says tho
Wall Street Journal, was also live
railroader, no respecter Of mere Gus
tom, and we'll to the fore in the era
which transferred Chicago from a
Lake Michigan port to the largest in
terror continental city in the world.
General Clarke was found of telling
how in the postbeilum days On order
was issued from the head Office OF one
Southern system that no more per-
sonal Wallets should be carried on the
pay rolls. and that the name OF the
bureau of which it was port should be-
painted on the door of each room.
Shortly after the president, on a.
personal inspection tour, opened the
door Of a very small room and con-
fronted an ancient negro Of eminently
respectable and respectful mlen. Said
the president:
"Yon black rebel are you still herepa
