Keep Looking Young
It's Easy-If You Know DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets.

The secret of keeping young is to
feel yOung-to do this you must
watch your liver ard bowels
there's no need CT having a saiIow
CorpIexion-dark rings under your
eyes-pimpIes-a bilious look in
your iace-dull eyes with no SPARKLE
Your doctor will tell you ninety
per cent of all sickness comes from
inactive bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, well known
physician in Ohio. perfected a
Vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil to act on the liver and
bowels, which he gave to his
patients for years.
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets, the
substitute for caIcmel, are gentle in
their action, yet always effective.
They bring abOut that natural
buoyancy which all should enjoy
by tOning up the liver and clearing
the system of impurities.

in the sketch. The bodice. as you
see. is merely a girdle of net and a
strap of tulle with sequins 1t is. by
way of contrast. quite n bodice COM
pared to many that are worn. for there
are some in which the material extends
only three inches above the waistline
and the rest is a harness of colored
beads. Ruth st. Denis must have in
spired this fashion in her Indian dances.
In the gown sketched today the
sequins cover the bodice entirely and
extend down on the skirt. The side
cascades are made from loops of Nat
tier blue velvet ribbon.

Rippling Cascades at Sides.

The skirts that have a whalebo to
diS;end their fulineSS at the hips fail
limp and full to the calf of the leg; but
the bat-wing skirts that stand out be
low the waist and taper down to the
hem have cascades of material falling
down the sides, making a strong con-
trast to the fiat back and front widths.
BY the way. don't let it escape you
that the skirt of the hour is fiat front
and back. The whalebones are usually
put in at the sides, and even when they
are employed by Callot for a wedding
gown they are so manipulated that
they do not swing free of the lining
front and back.
This is a trick that gives women a
chance to wear the new types of skirts.
Only the slim and young have the
hravado to gather or pleat skirts across
the front of the figure. The ripping
cascades are used by all the dominant
houses especially for the French wom-
en-: they are made of lace or tulle and
they are punched at each hip. The ultra
Parisienne does not line the sides of
her skirt; she permits the cascades of
lace or tulle to fall against tight jersey
silk kaickerbockers.

This is the type preferred by the

without transforming herself into

Americans are familiar with this
skirt. They have worn it quite often
throughout the last decade. In the
winter of 1914 it filled the places where
people danced. In those days it was
long hampering the movements OF the
ankles: today it is short and slashed
at the sides.
In the evening stockings are a faint

gives the appearance of slight sum

WHY SOCIETY WOMEN WASH
THEIR OWN HAIR

They do, not because 1t is a fad.
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair bca uty and be
sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair II is never wise to
use a makeshift, but is always ad-
visable to use a preparation made
for shampooing only. Many OF our
friends say they get the best results
from a simple homemade canthrox
mixture. You can use this al a cost
of about 3 cents a shampoo by get
ting some canthroX from your drug
Sist and dissoivinE tcaspoonful
in a cup of hot water. This makes
enough shampoo liquid TO apply to
all the hair instead of just the top
OF the head as with most prcpara-
tons. Dandruf, excess oil and dirt
are dissolved and entirely disappear
in the rinsing water. Your hair will
be so FUZZY that it will look much
heavier than It is. Its lustcr and
softness will also delight you.-Adv.

HARR|SONBURG MAN
GIVES TESTIMONY
81 Didn't Know What Tt Was to
Be Free of Pain" He Says.
Gets First Relief Through
New Herb Medicine.

MIR. Samuel Brunk. aged rs. OF Har-
risonburg, Va, is a retired farmer He
is very well known and highly respect
cd among his host of friends, and dur
ing his active career he has always
taken leading part in affairs that
made for the bettcrment of his com
munity.
For some years Mr.. Brunk has been a
victim of peculiarly malignant case
OF dyspepsia, coupled with liver trou-
Bile. constipation and severe headaches
His appetite became poor. and his sys-
tenn began TO run down.
Friends becoming alarmed at his
coqdition, advised Mr. Brunk to try
the new herb medicine, Dreco. Of which
the newspapers have been speaking so
much OF late. notwithstanding the
fact that he had little faith, Mr.. Brunk
consented TO give Dreco a trial, and
now, after he has taken five bottles. ne
has willingly joined the ever increas-
ing army of Dreco Boosters, and has
consented TO make statement for
pupllcation' telling his experience with
this medicine. This is what he says:
Il used TO be troubled with continu-
Gus headaches and awful pains in my
stomach, and didn't know what il was
to be free from pain. Friends advised !
me to try this new medicine, Dreco.
and l took their advice. 1 have now
taken five bottles, and am much i'm
proved, stronger and able to do more
work. L am not entirely we'll as yet
but have faith in Drcco curing me, and
am still taking it and recommending it.
Ono of the best things this medi-
cine has accomplished is to make me
sleep much better. That's "a Godsend"
Dreco has done SO much good in this
section, that 1t is often referred to as
The Miracle Medicine" by grateful
users. Its power to wipe pain and sick
ness from the human system seems in
many cases to justify it's nickname.
Dreco is one of the quickest and SAT,
est system invigorants and body re-
constructants known to the drug store
profession today. 1t is purely herbal. |
being made up from roots, banks, leaves
and berrics--just the kind of good. Old
