Who would ever have supposed that
earrings could be as fashionable in q
modern day as they have come to be?
They no longer can be considered as
an article Of jewelry; they are the ar

earrings one is as nothing in the way

trinkets mean everything. A gown Is
nothing without its accompaniment Of
earrings. The diamond sunburst of old

chases, In fear and trembling, per-

havin' to be a farmer and keep up

Combination of Materials and coIors
Popular for Accessory; Are
Exceedingly Smart.

Leather belts are not, perhaps, III
the highest fashion. But for thai very
reason they hold out an interest to
the woman who likes to dress with
distinction. Correctly worn, they are
exceedingly smart
Leather alone and leather in com
bination with metal in some form are
used in the new belts. Some show
combinations of two colors- black and
white and red and white, tan and
brown and gray and black. There are
cutouts in the leather belt to show
suede facings Sometimes the cutouts
are in the form of flowers, with the
flower centers marked with metal
beads.
For outing wear there are some dog
leash heIts-circular or tubular belts
of glazed leather. These are fastened
with metal buckles. and they come in
various shades of brown. gray and
tan.

AMONG NEW BLOUSE STYLES
Wearable Garments of the SEASON.
Include Crepe de Chine Models
in Varied Coiors.

When one applies the word wear
able to new blouse styles it means
more than the average reader is apt
to CLEAN, and it is with an idea Of
stressing the value of this adjective,
that it is emphasized. One company
has comprehensive showing of
blouses that are uniformly wearable
and attractive. This manufacturer
has concentrated on one price for all
blouses, and they present tempting
array of popular numbers.
Venise and st. Gall laces are used
In profusion on the ruffied fronts of
many frilled blouses. These are
shown in white, pink and bisque
georgettes of a good quality. A silk
Of crepe character has been employed
in those overblouse models on MILDLY
lines. Yarn embroidery in bright
colors makes most appropriate trim
mings for these outdoor styles.
Crepe de chine blouses show a fuV-
oritism for medallion effects in their
beaded establishment, and the wide
color range in which they make their
appearance is one Of the selling fea-
lures of these styles. Cinder, ermine,
Gamma and porcelain blue are a few
of those shades most in demand at the
moment.
In blouse numbers, with the literal
meaning of the word, crepe de chine
has been combined with knitted fab
ric that forms the Peter Pan collar,
cuffs, girdle and polo tie that fin
ishes it. The full blouse effect of this
model and the entire aspect of the
knitted trimming make an ideal num-

LIKE LEATHER AND METAL BELTS

There are narrow black suede and
patent leather belts, some with tiny
pockets on the front. There are Others
belts that go in sets, showing collars
and cuffs to match the belts. These
are in glazed leather or in suede.
Red is one of the colors chosen for
belts, and there are some lovely ones
Of red suede. Some of these BELTS
are trimmed with fringe, either in
slashed suede or in straw, which is,
sometimes used for embroidering the
belt in geometricaI designs.
There are some interesting belts
made Of strips of leather laced in
and out through metal rings, with long
slashed fringes hanging down at the
front.

FREEDOM FROM
LAXATIVES
Discovery by Scientists Has Replaced
Them.

Pills and salts give temporary re-
lief from constipation only at the ex-
pense Of permanent injury, says an
eminent medical authority.
Science has found a newer, better
way-a means as simple as Nature
itself
In perfect health natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this nat
ural lubricant is not sufficient. Medi-
cal authorities have found that the
gentle lubricating action of Nujol most
closely resembles that of Natures own
lubricant. AS Nujol is not laxative
it cannot grippe. 1t is in no sense a
medicine. And like pure water it is
harmless and pleasant.

From the time a girl reaches the
age of twelve until Womanhood is es-
tablished, she needs all the care a
thoughtful mother can give.
The condition that the girl is then
passing throughis so critical, and may
have such far-reaching effects upon
her future happiness and health, that
it is almost criminal for mother or
guardian to withhold counsel or adj
vice.
Many woman has suffered years
of prolonged pain and misery through
having been the victim of thought
lessness or ignorance on the part of
those who should have guided her
through the dangers and difficultieC
that beset this period.
Mothers should teach their girls
what danger comes from standing
around with cold or wet feet, from
lifting heavy articles, and from over
working. Do not let them over-study.
If they complain of headache, pains
in the back and lower limbs, they
need mothers thoughtful care and
sympathy.

The fact that the going wage is

will be telling factor in the secur-

owing to the good crop here than in
