81 Don't Feel
Just Right, Doc"
L(The Common Way of Describing Acidity)

You're not sick, yet not well. Your
stomach isn't just right, you don't
sleep we'll and you tire easily. Your
color isn't what it should be, and you
probably look drawn.
A sort of vague, rundown feeling
is one of the first symptoms of acid
ity. Acidity is due to our unnatural
eating, our irregular hours and other
excuses. The excess acid upsets diges-
ton and causes putrefaction and fer
mentation in the gastro-intestinal
canal. This frequently results in sick
headaches, dizzy spells, nerves"
mental depression and general lassi-
tude.
A remarkable new corrective of
acidity has been developed by q IA
nous 100-year-old pharmaceutical
house in Germany.
This new, improved magnesia comes
in the form of small, white tablets,
called Magnesia Oxoids, which do not
have to be chewed, but may be swal-
lowed whole. Magnesia Oxoids, upon
contact with the acid in the stomach.
generate nascent, or active oxygen.
Now, active oxygen, as any doctor
will tell you, when generated within
the digestive tract, does just the

things required for acidity. 1t stimu-
lates the secretion of the alkaline
mucus. 1t checks the putrefaction
and fermentation in the gastro-inteS-
final canal. 1t stimulates the activi-
ties of the intestinal walls and aids
the natural movement of the bowels.
All three effects are necessary to
the true relief of acidity, and Mag
nesia Oxoids supply them in q per-
fectly natural manner.

What's in Fashion?
Brother and Sister Dress Alike
Directed bv AMOS PARRISH.

NEW YORK, June 19Too
bad the Old Woman Who Lived
in q shoe didn't have the ad-
vantages Of modern fashion.
She could have made her brood
so snaartlooking by dressing
'em ell alike--or almost alike.
That's what lots Of mothers
are doing now. Even when they
have both boys and girls In the
family.
Brother and sister costumes
for little children are quite in
fashion. They're made Of the
same material, in the same color
and with the same general de-
sign-with shorts for the boys
and skirts for the girls.
Even when they're not dressed
exactly alike-in the brother
and sister outfit they're most
apt to be dressed almost alike.
That is. the same color scheme
may be used for both. and
clothes are selected that look
well in pairs.
just see how good q small boy
and girl can look when they're
dressed this way.
Coats and Hats
We've illustrated first q
brother and sister coat and hat
set. In this particular set, the
little girls coat Is cut in little
more feminine way. But in
some sets, both coats are alike
except that the boys buttons
at the right and the girls at
the left.
Below this sketch are the suit
and dress they're wearing under
the coats. Exactly alike, you
see, except for the difference OF
shorts and skirt.
Sweater Suits
Next the sweater suits for
days when it's cool. The little
girls has q jacket, too, even
though she's not wearing 1t.
And again, exactly alike except
for the shorts and skirt.
We think the play clothes
sketched 60 well together, even
though they aren't Of the same
material and design. And Of
course you'll find plenty Of play
clothes that are designed in
similar brother and sister ef-
fectS.
And their party clothes. Don't
you think this printed landker-
. chief linen dress looks well with
brothers white line suit?
whatever else they are, little
children's summer clothes are
sensible and comfortable. Made

Sports Coats
Are Popular
These Days
BY WILMA LA VILE

You've heard many times
that fashions evolve and do not
appear or gain acceptance sud-
denly. An example of this is
the polo coat which has been
on its way for long time and
which win be with US for some
time to come.
The polo coat, as you know,
has been worn for several sea-
sons as a strictly sports coat.
There have been slight changes
to follow the mode, but basi-
caily it's the same coat. Then
Greta Carlo saw it and hked
( it. After she had worn it in a
successful picture all the young
world took it up so that now
It's known as the Greta Garbo
coat
Last winter we wore this coat
made of camel's hair in nat
ural, color. It looked extremely
smart with its swagger lines,
raglan shoulders, patch pockets

with us again as the Smartest
summer sports coat.
The summer version Of this
popular coat is Of q soft, Spongy
white wooden that is warm
enough for a cold night yet
light enough for general day
time wear. It follows exactly
the same lines as the winter
coat. OF course you may have
your sleeves set in, If you prefer,
but the general appearance OF
the coat is the same.
We've seen this white coat
on smart women at many sports
events. They put it on over an
active costume. such as a ten
niS-golf dress. or they wear it
for looking on at sports with
any Of the simple frocks that
are correct.
Several washington stores are
showing the Greta Garbo coat,
in white or in egg-shell. II

they're cut to give the young

Simple almost plain, some Of
them. Fashion-wise mothers

And even though they're so
