when she discovers suit that
may Justly lay claim to it, for suits

style. They are worn oftener and
longer than other kinds of apparel,
and much Is demanded of them. They
are required to vary accepted modes
by ingenious differences, without go

conservative in order to be refined,
they must be spirited enough to escape
being commonplace. and in most cases
youthful flavor is demanded of them.
The task of choosing one that will full
fill all these obligations promises to be
easier than il has been. for fall suits

Autograph Collecting Old.

Emmett Campbell Hall writes in the
New York Evening Post that auto

origin, and the first authentic collector
was no less illustrious person than
Cicero, who had fine collection. of

he mentions one POmpeius Secundus,

autographs of Cicero. Augustus, Vir-

of autograph collecting until the be-

when, about the year 1907. Bohe-

Many attacks of illness would be

Therefore the subject of eating should
be given our most careful attention.
We all need foods containing pro-

milk, etc Adults need protein to re-
store used tissue in working, living
and breathing. Growing children re-

foods.
Carbohydrates are very essential.
These are found in starchy vegetables.
such as potatoes and cereals. sugar,
honey or fresh fruits. Carbohydrates
furnish energy and heat to the body
and should be about twO-fifths Of the
meal. Fats also give heat and energy
to the body. Food containing fats are
butter, salad oils, milk, nuts, oleomar-
garine, etc.
Mineral foods are needed to
strengthen the bone, teeth. hair and
nails. Foods that are strong In min

keep body processes in order. The
body also requires a liberal amount
of good drinking water, which most Of
us neglect.
