They say that women's skirts are to
be shorter than ever this season-n
such q thing can be possible. Short
skirts and dresses are all right, pro-
viding one does not overdo Il. There
are extremes in everything, and these
should be avoided. A skirt that clears
the ground by few inches, is really
. sensible garment, since a trailing
gown or skirt gathers not only tho
dirt Of the street but germs rs well.
But in selecting ones clothes one
should first study ones own peculari-
ties of form and fgure-"stand upon q
corner and watch yourself go by" II
you have the least bit of taste, or
just plain common sense, you will
very soon see where certain styles or
colors should be avoided. The way
some women look in the present-day
styles, particularly short-very short
skirts reminds US of little poem we
read somewhere. Let's see, how does

To see their legs as others see 'em!

And foolish notion,
That toothpicks and piano legs

A LITTLE INFORMATION ON
SYMPTOMS OF BLOOD POISON

Blood poison, or septicemia is never
caused by dyes, verdigris, rust or any
chemical. The only cause is bacteria.
A bright new nail or a clean looking
white stocking may harbor these
germs, while a rusty nail may be per-
fectly harmless.
The symptoms of blood poison are
inflammation about the wound, fever,
chilliness, headache, soreness and swell
ling of lymph nodes over the wound,
and red lines in the skin from the
wound along the lymph channels.
The safest treatment for blood pois-
on when a doctor is not to be had, is
to open the wound, soaking the af-
fected part in a tub of hot water and
applying congresses, repeating the

Eggs are always healthy as a food

One of the best liked and easiest
way TO serve eggs SO that they will

is in omelettes- And bear in mind

loss until we called his attention to
it, nearly tainted when he discovered
how near he had been to giving away
goodly sum of money. "Give away

Of said check, made it payable to any
one who presented it for payment.
Do you know what It means to
sign your name on the back of a check
before you get to the bank? It means
that in case you lose the check and
some one finds it, said ~some one" can

nal treatment IL valuable and in some
cases vaccine and antitoxines are used.
In soaking q wound in which symp-
toms Of blood poison appear, be sure
that all the articles used in the opera
ton are PERFECTLY CLEAN. One
of the safest methods to follow Is to
rinse the tub or basin with scalding
water in which = drop or two Of car
bolic acid has been mixed. The hands
should also be clean and the towel or
cloth used to wipe the water from the
member should be placed in y red hot
oven for q minute or two before il is
allowed TO come in contact with the
wound or any part of the flesh near Il.
The very best way however, is to
see the family physician at once.

PARADES AND SPEECHES
 TO MARK SOLIDITY OF
 ALL AMERICAN TOILERS
HEWLETT SLATE D
 BY G. 0. P. BOSSES TO RUN FOR MAYOR
Representative Ford and Other Can didates to Be Sidetracked on
 Order of Machine.

George T. Hewlett, former major of the Foot Guard, and who was recently retired as secretary of the board of edu- cation, will be the nominee of the New Haven Republican machine for the of flee of mayor according to the dope that has leaked out from the meeting of the town committee on Wednesday night. Major Hewlett's nomination IS "hand- picked' and in full ripeness and was be- ing carefully nurtured by the powers that be in the "G. O. P' for week, while Representatives Fred. Ford and Fred Perry, Fred. Orr and Ed Coffey and a number of others were being vociferously boomed by their friends. None of those also mentioned' ever had a chance, how ever, because Hewlett had been decided on and the bosses were simply letting the boys have a little fun for them selves.
 The announcement of the selection of Hewlett will shock the supporters of Representative Fred Ford. The latter was supposed to have the inside track and although he at first stated he didn't care for the nomination. has made con- plete about face since the democrats got into the primary row and IS now said to be more than anxious to get the nomi1a- tion At first it was believed that Col Ullman and his lieutenants favored him, the colonel having brought Ford here from Hartford some six or eight years ago and made him city engineer Ford pulled big vote last year also and his friends could see clear sailing for him The Hewlett snag IS now in the way, however, and he will have a duece of a time getting around 1t.
 Charles E. Julin, former secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, was another Col. Ullman had in mind for the nomi- nation but Julin, astute observer that he is, decided that he didn't want to make the run this time as the prospects didn't look quite good enough for him. He insisted on being left out of it for this year at least and then Hewlett was brought to the fore.
 Whether Ford's friends will quietly lie down and let things go on as planned is probelematical as yet, but it is likely as has happened in the past, that they will have to be satisfied with the verdict and like good republicans march right up to the polls and vote for the nominee.
