Wonderful Curative Power of Mineral Deposit Proven. Wa ter Recommended for Blood Troubles of Long Standing. Uses Include Treatment of Rheumatism, Pellagra, let ter, Eczema, Etc.

Likened to the great Baden Springs of Europe-such Ire the curative wonders of 2 mineral deposit composed of Iron. Sulphur and Potash recently found out in Mississippi
 It is commonly known that each-Iron, Sulphur and Potash--are almost considered specifics for all forms of diseases caused by an impure blood. The combination of all three of these clements supplied by Ma ture easily surpasses the chemists fondest hopes. It can't be done like Nature did it
 Simply by treating this mineral deposit with pure water, preparation known as Sul-Ferro-Sol has been produced and is now being offered for sale everywhere.
 As the result of an investigation by the United States Government it was proven that Sul-Ferro-Sol had cured cases of Pel- lagra of from to years standing; cured cases of Eczema up to 20 years standing. Remarkable cures of cases of Rheumatis m. Tetter, and other forms of blood poison were also recorded. Data of testimony covering any disease mentioned will be furnished on request

waist the appearance of being pressed in al each side and flattened at front and back. It is not probable that we will take the seventeenth century sil- houette seriously We will not slav- ishly copy the clothes of Mary Stuart when she was Queen of France. Dress makers never intend that women shall go back in all details of costumery to the epochs from which they borrow new fashions: but it is exceedingly interest
 ing to find out just what fashions threaten, and there are few who do not believe that the Spanish skirt as it is called will bring back the long Spanish bodice. The dressnakers show and the women wear, a bodice the skirt is gathered or pleated stop at the waist but is slightly rounded or pointed in front and very much rounded in the back. To this bodice the skirt is gath cred or pleated in whatever way the dressmaker invents. Poiret has come very near an old Spanish portrait by running a bodice down to the hip line in a pointed front and round at the back, then placing folds of material like pleats straight across the skirt each one piped at the edge an1 slightly stiffened with crinoline These pleats or folds, which turn outward, back and front, extent far beyond the line of the hips and are ironed togethe- ard
 
 like tiny buttons. This makes the line of hips about five inches wider on each | side than the edge of the bodice. It's 1 a very interesting model. There are | frocks of satin, of Chinese metallic 1 cloth with a. black line through it which have bodices that extend to the end of the corset at the back where l they are rounded and attached to a gathered or pleated skirt. There are simple satin gowns in beige or black | that have these bodices without girdles | fastened in straight line down the | front with high flaring collars tha | reach the ears. The skirt attached tc | the bodice will not be draped in tho | old method nor will there be a sem. l blance of fringe upon it, but it will bt knife pleated or accordian pleated al
 each side and left flat in the middle oi l the front or back. There are supert l Chinese embroidered bodices and other. made of heavy floreated Spanish em l broidery, that have skirts in plain vel l vet or satin You can see for yoursel 1 that the tendency of such a bodice il | to call for a high bust line and a Ions l underarm line.

DRESS By ANNE RITTTENHOUSE

Copyright, 1919. by the Me Among certain segments of French
 fashions there is strong effort to
 bring back the long sim blouse ot
 the seventeenth ce1tury without
 girdle.
 Paris, September 16.-The full skirt demands d small waist, but it gets it through comparison rather than by the corset. Here and there there are wo- men in Paris who are following the mannequins in their new gowns by making the bodices long and straight without a curve so that the waist ap- pears elongated and also small in com parison, to the stiffened pleats that sometimes stand out for six inche away from the hips. This is the new silhouette. It will create a good deal of disturbance in American fashions if it is accepted It is difficult to describe or to follow these movements in detail, but the general idea is to make the upper part of the body look as though it were stock to a board merely by confining it within narrow pieces of cloth cut to run below the waistline This is a seventeenth century fashion as you well know. If it is widely ac- cepted it will undoubtedly change the contour of the figure, or rather of the corset, and this conviction has added to the confusion over here. If one ac- cepts the corsetless figure, which means the low bust and the rounded abdomen. one cannot attach to the wide hipped skirt the flat Spanish bodice which was worn by Catherine de Medici, Queen Eliza beth and Mary Stuart. Of course there will be a compromise There always is. We would accept modified bodice, we will wear corsets but we will probably find out that the next step will be to raise the line of the bust and give the

 it needed but also to export sulphur. The courageous men who ventured to take up Mir. Fraschs proposition are understood to have received a larger percentage of return than has been gained by any investors in American properties excepting possibly in some of the precious metal mines. The profits have aggregated many millions.
