What Must I do to be Able to Resist the Many Ailm ents so Prevalent in Summer?

Nature greatest transition is the change from Winter into Spring the passing away of one season and a re-awakening of new life everywhere.
 Trees, flowers, plants of ev- cry description, having con sumed all the vitality which was stored up to carry them through the dreary winter bud forth with new energy and blos- som into flower, preparing to grow forth and accumulate new strength and development.
 But the human system has not passed through the winter season in a dormant state like the trees and plants. You have been called upon to eXpend energy and vitality constantly. In fact, there has been a greater demand upon your strength to withstand the rigorous winter than at any other season of the year.
 So that as spring approaches -the most joyous season of the entire year-very often it finds bur system so run down and your strength so depleted from the strenuous demands of win ter that your vitality is at a low ebb, and you are unable to enjoy the beauties of spring time that are so abundantly present on every hand.

dan Eating Tlaera

MAN Eaters" begin their scourge Of
villages In India only when age begins
to stiffen their muscles. and when hui
mar flesh Is once tasted they crave for
nothing else, according to Paul Drevy,
In the World Wide Magazine.
Increasing difficulty in selling the
small and agile denizens of the jungle,
writes Drevy. leads the tiger to attack
persons as a means of gaining his food.
The success with which the man eat
ers have been able to secur human
flesh has led them to throw or the
old instinct of terror of man.
Incursions Of man eaters In india
often die down for ten or fifteen years,
says Drevy, and then some commun-
ity finds within a few days that any
number of its members have disap-
peared and a search Is made for the
animal. In one district of the cen
trail provinces, 80 persons disappeared
In 45 days. The beast was finally kill
ed by an English officer.
In another section II villages were
the scene Of invasions for more than
three months. Finally, more than g.
900 armed men set out to find the man
eater. but without result. The animal,
on one Of its incursions. bounded oyer
a garden fence and impaled itself on
a stake.
In India few animals under fifteen
years Of age have been known to at
tack persons. 1t Is generally after
that age that they begin their attacks
on human lives.

They are not only back, but sold. One
particularly fetching evening frock
was purchased right out of its display
window before its prospective wearer
had even tried 1t on.
1t is a adorable reminiscence
of 100 as may be seen from the sketch
above. The dress is built over a petit
coat of wired %crinoline with bands of
clinoline used inside the deep hem of
the skirt itself. The material Is black
taffeta. Note the quaint old-fashioned
neck line that drops off the should
ers. The waist is tight-fltting, absolu-
tely without trimming save for the
frill of four-inch black chantilly lace
which finishes the two-inch sleeves
formed by the drop shoulders.
Cascade Of Flowers
This lace reappears on the skirt In
the form of a TERED overskirt gathered
onto o four-inch peplum of the taft
feta. The somberness of the froclS Is
relieved by the cascade of brilliant
and veri-colored flowers falling free
from the waist.
