HOW BETTER THAN PILLS?

The question has been asked: In
what way are Chamberlain's Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic
and liver pills? Our answer is, they
are easier and more pleasant to take
and their effect is SO gentle that one
hardly realizes that 1t Is produced by
a medicine. Then, they not only
move the bowels but improve the APP
petite and strengthen the digestion.

EXPLAINING LACK OF DETAIL
Youthful Artist Had Excellent Reason
for Leaving Out Characters In
Her illustration.

A primary class in one Of the grade
schools was asked to illustrate a
story that had been read to the little
ones by the teacher. The story told
Of three children going to wood In
a goat wagon, and staying until the
sun went down. Most of the pictures
showed the goat with big horns pulling
the wagon containing the children,
and sun going down behind a hill.
One of the small girls in the class
handed in a picture showing merely
a hill and some grass.
."Why, what does your picture
mean?" inquired the teacher. where
are the goat and. the children?"

The Oldest amusement In the world
is dice-throwing. - s'-.-
In some form or another, dice have
existed in every period of history.
They are shown on early Egyptian
monuments, and some dug up at.
Thebes recently are exactly similar to
those in use today. They are men-
toned in laws regulating games
played in ancient Greece and Rome
and most other countries in Europe.
The invention Of dice is attributcd
to Palamedes, one Of the heroes who
sailed against Troy, about the year
1914 B. c., but the use of cubes with
numbered sides for gambling purposes
is probably much earlier. ~ ~.&~

With the installation of new equip

at University Farm, the dairy divi-
sion will be able to offer complete
practical training along with theory
for the two remaining dairy short
courses this winter, according to PROT
J. r.. Keithley, in charge of the
courses. Dairy students from now
on will have equipment for the man
ufacture of butter, cheese, ice cream
and the handling of market milk and
refrigeration of dairy products. The
total investment represented by these
five units is about $500. Although
all the equipment is not new, 1t Is in
first class condition.
The annual creamery operators
short course will come Jan. 2 to Feb.
II and will be followed by the cheese
plant operators short course, which
begins Feb. 13 and ends March IL.
The average experience of the 50 men
who attended the creamery course
last year was approximately three
years. This course has been given
at University Farm fer about 30 years

Half.century Pianta

There are no true century plants In
the sense that it taxes them 100 years
to bloom. A number of plants, how
ever, do not bloom until they have
lived for long term of years. The
classic example Of such plants is the
TALBOT palm of India which lives for
so years or more and becomes a tall
tree before 1t blooms. After 1t has
sent up it's immense fowerstalk the
whole plant dies. Our American ''cen-
fury plants" often fruit at the end Of
eight or ten years under natural con-
.ditions, but in the house may refuse
to bloom at all. Many Of the bamboos
act like the century plants and bloom
but once after a long period Of vege-
tation. Such species are known az
monacarpic plants.-Science Service.

Three Distinct Kinds for MiIady'S
Evening Wear.
Straight OF Line, Low Waist; Tight
Fitting Bodice; Draped, Long and
Slender of Line

Evening gowns may be said to be
OF three distinct types: those that are
straight of line with low waists,
those that have tight-itting bodices and
bouffant skirts and, for more formal
affairs, long and slender of line.
Regardless Of the class to which
they belong, notes d Paris fashion au-
thorIty, practically all have uneven
hem lines. 1t is most interesting to
observe how the uneven effect . is
achieved. In the straight-line models
1t occasionally is accomplished
through the use of swinging panels,
always longer than the foundation
skirt, and often cut on bias lines.
When bias, they are narrower at the
top and have the hem edge cut in
blunt points. The foundation skirt as
well as the panels may be cut in this
fashion.
Trains as well as skirt hens are
cut in unGxen lines. Madeleine ct

pie of this in their model Fume BIeu,

Paris Shop Shows Winsome Access
sories; Floral and Gothic De-
signs Are Featured.

In a recent display of new bags in
a Paris shop the most distinctive was
one of the Gothic inspiration. 1t is
long shape in darkest brown gros-
grain, ending in a point and tassel.
The top in galalith represents old
ivory and slips over the fastening on
the bag itself like the top of a card
case, but is attached by two fine
brown cords which also serve as a
handle. The top" is a Gothic design,
after the style of architecture seen
OH windows of that period. The whole
style of the bag is after the ancient
aumOnieres worn slung over the
shoulder in the Middle Ages, and gives
a new trend to bag styles.
Other bags in this collection show
huge flowers on the top in finely
carved galalith, the top opening like
a box. One model represents beau
tiful rose, in an exquisite deep red
