GIRL SCOUT NEVIS

Taking measurements henceforth will be an easy thing for Girl Scouts of Berlin. following . meeting held by Troop of that community last evening. The girls spent the eve ming in practice on this achievement and. although 1t Is not said whether or not they have arrived at q point where they can take the measure of q man. it is reported on good au- thority that they now are ready to measure almost anything else.
 The girls have measured the spread of their fingers Ind their length so as to make hand meas urements in the future. In measur- ing tables, and others things the spread of tho hand may not be suf- ficient 50 they also have added to the archives of the troop a complete record of the length of their arms and their spread.
 Map making and scout engneer- ing problems are not without their share of possible attention by Troop {, so the girls also have recorded in the files of the troop tho length of their footprints and .he length of their individual paces.
 Measuring the height of . tree by making use of tho shadow and the above fundamentals, telling ita exact height without tho use ci measuring implements is the next step in the course. Within the next two weeks they expect to 50 forth into the woods and take the meaa- urements of the trees.
 Three girls in this troop last eve ming passed their firebuilding test. Next week the troop will have Halloween party, which will com bine a celebration of Founders day as well.
 A Halloween party for all the girls of St. Johns the Divine par ish will be given by Troop Of that church next Monday after noon at 1 o'clock. All girls 10 years of age or over. are invited.

London, April 9.-Skirt length

ly.
The hem will be even for morn

most of the hens will be uneven,
descending in some cases almost
to the ankle at the back and sides.
Some of the more striking
changes as seen in the parade are:
~. A tendency toward full
ress on one side only Of the skirt.
This is most often in the form OF
an inverted godet.
(2). The use of a large irregu-
lar bow, perched precariously on
the left hip, the ends helping to
accentuate the uneven hem. Or
namentation in general is on the
left.
Printed Chiffons for Evening
(3). Printed chiffons and en-

frocks. The taffetas were most
~ made up in an old world design
with a charming simplicity remi-
niscent of Grandmother's day.

Prescription He Wrote
in 1892 is the Worlds
Most Popular Laxative

When Dr.. Caldwell started to
!ractice medicine, back in 1876, the
needs for q laxative were not as
great as they are today. People
lived normal, quiet lives, ate plain,
wholesome food, and got plenty of
fresh air and sunshine. But even
that early there were drastic phys
les and purges for the relief of con-
stipation which DR.. Caldwell did
not believe were good for human
beings to put into their system. So
ne wrote . prescription for a laxa.
tive to be used by his patients.
The prescription for constipation
that he used early in his practice,
and which he put in drug stores in
1892 under the name of DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid
vegetable remedy, intended for
women, children and elderly people,
and they need just such q mild, safe,
gentle bowel stimulant as Syrup
Pepsin.
Under successful management this
prescription has proven it's worth
and is now the largest selling liquid
laxative in the world. The fact that
millions Of bottles are used a year
proves that It has won the confidence
Of people who needed it to get relief
from headaches, biliousness, flatu-
lence, indigestion, loss of appetite
and sleep, bad breath, dyspepsia,
colds and fevers.
Millions of families are now never
