SOME SUIT SKIRTS FLARE.
 MOST ARE SEVERELY PLAIN

For dress, street, business wear or travelling, the severely tailored suit is shown this season in such a side variety of material, styles and prices that no woman need despair of having correct costume.
 While, also, the aiority of the suit skirts come cut on the favorite straight lines, certain chic, new types have a bit of a flare which is very fascinating.
 Slightly fitted coats-uniformly long come with some of these smart suits Frequently the plainness of the type of suit is relieved by rich and elegant em- broidery, while in other cases the ex- pensiveness of a collar in some one of the fashionable furs gives suit it's own distinctive touch.
 So, too. in the top coat. Starting with severely plain, though rich material, the finish of fine fur collar in shawl or Russian cut makes a thing of beauty out of what otherwise might be consid- cred ordinarily plain.

EYES WEAK /?

If your eyes are weak and work strained: your vision blurred. if you find it difficult to read and must wear glasses, go to your druggist and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets. Drop one in a fourth of a glass of water and bathe the eyes two to four times a day. Stronger eyes, clearer vision. and sweet relief will make you tell your friends about Bon-Opto.
 Note: Doctors say Bon-Opto strengthens eyesight 50 per cent. in a weeks time in many instances.
