new silver coin. One writer calls il
the "flapper dollar" and says the
open-lipped girl thereupon looks az

busyv' or "Say, lissen." Just tnat
sort of girl, you know.
Beneath this stone lies Nick Mac

Who always drove in helluva

Once too oft he turned on speed
That's why this record now you

Bobby came home from his first
day at kindergarten with the an
nouncement that he could write.
Upon being given pencil and paper
he made his usual meaningless scrib-
bles.
"But what" said his mother, "does

"How do | know" answered
Bobby. Il haven't learned to read
it yet.
NO REASON.

THE WOMAN OF POISE

One rarity, is now to be observed
and admired upon every hand. In
deed, no other woman can flourish
long in the midst of this modern. COM
plicated life. In the home, in business,
in social life, the woman who is serene
and confident wins, while the nervous
flustered individual wastes her talents
and gets nowhere. OF course, poise is
dependent mainly upon sound health
and steady nerves. If you feel that
you are being kept back in this way,
why not turn to that great woman's
remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's vege-
table Compound, which was manufac-
tured from thorough understanding
Of the nervous system of women?

A wooden frock made with drap-
ing is something unusual in the
dress line. Silks and satins always
invite draped effects but street
frocks of serge and tricotine rarely
attempt anything but straight lines.
This frock might easily pass for a
Partisan model but it is an Ameri-
can designed creation. 1t is simple
in itself with just enough trimming
to set it off.
Navy poiret twill is the material
used. 1t is made in one piece from
neck to hem in the front with a
bit of draping at the waist to form
a wrapped skirt. An embroidered
silk sash hangs from the waist al
the side front and is fastened with
q silk braid ornament. The bodice
and sleeves are neatly tailored with
silk braid. Round steel buttons ado
another bit of embellishments. Per
haps the most unique feature of the
frock is the black and white check
ed silk facing of the wide bel
sleeves.
