Remember the 'dose' mother insisted

you hated them, how you fought agalnst

With our children it's different
Mothers who cling to the old form o.

injured by them.
If your child s stomach, liver and

love to take it; that it never fails t,

There is one thing very noticeable
about the modes Of this year, and that
is the way the Elton jacket is being
featured. Suits, serge dresses, walking
costumes and even lingerie frocks
have this youthful little jacket, or the
effect of one, which amounts to the
same thing in the long run. One stun
