ASK YOUR NEIGHBOR

It has been said that there is now hardly a city, town or village in this country wherein some woman does not reside who has found health in that good, oldfashioned remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound. Therefore, if you are suffering from some ailnlent, and hardly know what to do for it, and have tried other remedies without help, ask your neighbor if she has ever used Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound. If she herself has never had the need for it, undoubtedly she knows others who were just in your condition and who have been restor- ed to health by its use.-Adv.

It's a wonuo-4ully smart example of the semi-sports suit, but it's doubtful if it would be half so arresting minus the particular type of decoration that it chooses. Of course, you know about the fascinating cutwork so popular just now. Maybe, though, you hadn't realized just how well it can look on suit.
 This model uses it thrice upon the deep shawl collar, once on each cuff, and once again on each of its very sporty-looking pockets. Then, by way of emphasizing this fetching cut work, there must be contrast of color. And that is supplied by developing most of the suit in navy, a velour, perhaps, and the pockets collar and cuffs in either real chamois or in cham ois- -colored suede cloth, and pos- ing 1t over the navy. Or, if you choose, you might make the decorat- ed portions of the costume of the navy and use the chamois underneath in the way of lining.

ETIQUETTE

Use of the Napkin.-Is it proper to tuck the napkin in ones gown. or spread it over the sa me while at the dinner table? (Answer.) Napkins are not used by persons practicing nice table manners to protect their garm ents from drops and crumbs
 but to wipe their lips and fingers when fruit is eaten. The napkin is an aid to comfort and neatness, and should not be tucked in anywhere Or made prominent.
 The Laying Aside of Gloves.- When are gloves laid aside by guests at dinner and where are they plac- ed? (Answer.) Men as rule leave their gloves in the dressing room. The ladies do not remove their gloves till seated. Those who wear long gloves may remove them entirely or merely draw the hands from the kid casing and stuff the empty portions back into the ful1ness about the wrist. The gloves, if wholly remov- ed, are laid under the napkin, which
 has already been transferred from l table to knee. The napkin should not be used as a towel or spread over the knees like a driving blanket.
 FareWellS Alter o1nner--Shou1d a guest make 1t a point to. bid fare we'll to the other guests before talk ing ones departure? (Answer.) No. On rising to depart a guest should bid courteous good night to the , person last engaged in conversation and if pleasant acquaintances are very near at hand may be offered to
 each one with farewell words. Other

 bow a good night, and then, address ing hostess and host. pass out of the room.
