one medicine that produces or gives
results. The statement today comes
from Mr.. F. D. Perkins, 434 4th St.

years. He said: prior to using this
medicine my wife suffered terrible
with stomach trouble for over, year.
She was hardly able to eat a thing.
Special treatments failed to help her
very much and she was advised to be
very careful about her diet-if she ate

her and caused severe vomiting spells.

Fruit, Gelatin Combination
Makes Nice Dessert

Fruits in gelatin are always deli
cious for dessert. Tokay or Malaga
grapes-the kind with firm flesh-are
used in the following recipe for a
mold made with grape juice from Con-
cord grapes. AS in most recipes con-
tanning fruit juices, little lemon is
added to intensity the fruit flavor.
The proportions have been tested by
the bureau of home economics of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture:
tbs. gelatin 2 tbs. lemon Juice
" cup cold water 2 cups gra p 9
liz cups boiling juice

" cup sugar kay or Malaga

Soften the gelatin in the cold water
for five minutes, add the boiling wa

solved. When cool mix with the lemon
and grape juice, chill, and when part
ly set stir in the grapes, put into
wet mold, let stand until firm, turn
out on plate and serve with whipped

FAIRY TALE FOR LITTLE ONES
AT THE BEDTIME HOUR

The moon had been shining but now
it was not so bright, and somehow
Enty's conversation did not seem so
interesting to David. He sung his
words now in a slow sing song fash
ion which made David want to move
his head slowly from side to side
without thinking very much about
what was being said.

my belt" Enty said.
David blinked and saw he had top
pied over and that he was indeed on
Enty's belt.
''You'd better have a nights rest, "
Enty added. 1--WE all have to, come
all humans must sleep.
."But I'll tell you where there is a
nice bed for YOU"
He took David by the Ahand, which
was just as well, for David was Stun
bling in his sleepiness.
Before David scarcely realized it,
he was lying down In the loveliest,
warmest, snuggliest bed he had ever
known. He did not care much where
it was, he was too tired to thank Enty,
he just went off to sleep and it wasn't
until morning that he knew that he
had been sleeping in most beautiful

Cabbage Slaw Takes Place
of Other Salads

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Sometimes in the winter months let
tuce for salads is hard to get. Cab
bage slaw takes the place of other
salads very nicely under these clrcum-
stances. 1t may be served hot or cold,
and may be used as an accompaniment
to almost any kind of meat 1t goes
especially we'll with fried oysters and
other sea food The bureau of home
economics of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture suggests one
or two slight variations that help to
make cabbage slaw a little different
from usual.
Select hard head of cabbage, cut
in quarters, and wash thoroughly in
cold water. Drain, shred with sharp
knife, and set aside In cold place
until crisp. Pour hot dressing over
the crisp cabbage and stir until well
mixed Serve hot or cold.
One cupful of chopped celery or
half cupful Of finely shredded green
pepper, or one cupful of thinly sliced
tart apple can be added.
Dressing for Cabbage Saw.
2 eggs n tsp. mustard
n cup sugar 1/16 tsp. celery
"A cup vinegar seed
Tbs sugar 3 tbs. butter or
" tsp salt other fat
Beat the eggs, add all the ingredi-
ents except the fat, and cook in
double boiler until thickened. Stir
constantly. and just before removing
from the fire, add the fat Pour over
the cabbage while hot. II served as
cold slaw, chill after the dressing
is added.

BACK VIEW OF AUTUMN HATS
HOBBY WITH THE MILLINERS

ing ribbon. The touch of white on
the hat answers to the white pleated
frill which enlivens the frock of black
crepe. The idea of relating the hat
and the frock in matter of color COM
bination is one which receives encour-
agement throughout the style program.
The beret of feutre glace felt at the
right above centers it's attractiveness
at the very peak of it's crown where a
bow of the felt and crystal ornament
are posed in a most clever manner.
One of the interesting things mllin-
ers are doing this season is to manipu-
late velvet in every possible way. They
shirr 1t. they tuck it, pleat it, drape
1t and tie it in bows, making it serve
In most instances as it's own trim
ming. The self-trimmed velvet hat be-
low to the left in this group brings
it's pointed bow ends to the rear, thus
answering the call for attractive back
views.
AS to the little bright feathers which
so smartly trim many of the autumn
and winter hats, one may expect to
find them posed almost anywhere on
the hat, and therein lies the secret of
their charm. Per example the posi-
tioning of the cluster of tiny quilts on
the draped felt beret in the picture is
daring even to the point of being
amusing and yet that elusive quality
which we call 'style" has been
achieved in no small degree. Which
is true of all feather treatments this
season-style achieved through unique
pose.
1t adds to the prestige of the models
here illustrated that they have been
approved by that group of American
millinery fashion authorities who have
associated themselves together for the
purpose of promoting authentic and
exclusive fashions in millinery.
