REVERT TO PAST
FOR DRESS MOTIFS

Most of the couturiers on the other
side of the world are stressing Vic.
torian and Second empire motifs In
their new collection of gowns and
wraps.
Such REVEALS. as you may have no
ticed In the past, are usually accepted
by very few. Those living fashion
plates who talks, eat and sleep fash.
ions will no doubt be quick to accept
the new creations. But for those Of
us who must be active and therefore
modern in our choice Of clothes there
are still number of exquisite and
sensible clothes to choose from.
AS to woolens in varied
weaves are being launched for many
of the new frocks. Lelong has an in
teresting jersey afternoon frock that
is worn with velveteen jacket In a
contrasting shade.
For afternoon wear mOires. plain,
printed and brocaded, will he used,
and the same material will enjoy eve
ming popularity.

coat.
The very youthful suit shown to the
right above in the picture is fashioned
Of black pebbly wool weave. A
clever two-in-one collar and yoke effect
Of elegant Persian lamb gives "class"
to the jaunty little jacket. The scarf.
tie of self-fabric also adds touch
that tells. The light silk blouse with
Its pleated hemline lends charm to the
costume. Brilliant wee ostrich tips
surmount the crown of the fashionable
Empress Eugene chapeau which tops
this stunning outfit.
With her black and white wool dress
milady seated to the left wears a gray
kid fur suede-sleeved jacket, which Is
the last word in swank as the fash
ionist now sees it. Her Empress Eu-

with cluster of sprightly quilts.

Then. too, little shoulder capes of fur
are heralded for fall and winter-beret
and scarf set also. If you please, the
scarf bearing an amusing resemblance
to the quaint little "tippet" which Is a

California Fig Syrup. Children love
its rich, fruity taste and it quickly
drives away those distressing all
ments, such as headaches, bad breath,
coated tongue, biliousness, feverish-
ness, fretfulness, etc. 1t gives them
hearty appetite, regulates their stom-
ach and bowels and gives tone and
strength to these organs so they con-
tinue to act normally, of their own
accord. For over fifty years, lead
ing physicians have prescribed 1t for
half-sick, bilious, constipated chill

pend on 1t.

Jackie, is a prize winner for health,
now, but we had lot of trouble with
him before we found his trouble was
constipation and began giving him
California Fig Syrup. It fixed him

Decorative Symbols

The dove and the star have been
used in church decoration and archi-
lecture from very early period. and
their symbolism may be variously in
terpreted, according to the conception
of the artists. The dove represents
the new principle Of Christlanity-its
two wings the love Of man and the
love Of God, compassion and contem-
plation. or active and meditative life.
1t also stands for the Holy Ghost and
the soul. The radiation star is the
star of Bethlehem and therefore rep
resents Jesus Christ. Stars without
the rays are often used to represent
the saints.

SO it really seemed TO Constance
that there was nothing to do but
to start negotiating for car. That
afternoon she ordered it, and was
going the following afternoon to
the savings bank to draw out the
necessary amount to start the ne

would have to pay seventy-fve dol
lars a month. After she had made
her monthly payment and paid her
board bill she would have just
enough to buy clothes and little
incidentals.
1t was not until she was on her
way to the bank the next day that
the idea first occurred to her that
after she had bought the car she
would have to keep it somewhere
She spent several hours on the aft
ernoOns following and finally dis
covered a not very convenient
garage where she could keep her
car for fifteen dollars a month. That
would mean total of ninety dol
lars a month. Constance did some
more figuring and decided that if
she didn't 90 to the movies or the
theater and didn't get any new hats
she could manage.
Then there was the confusion and
excitement of learning to drive her
new car. The garage boy who gave
her instruction of course had to be
paid. Meantime there had been the
license for the car and later her
own license. Constance was be-
coming quite concerned.
Then she began to drive. and she
discovered, as she had not thought
to consider before, that cars need
gasoline to run, and gasoline
costs money. A little more figur-
ing showed Constance that she
would have to do without any new
shoes. She took some very old ones
to the cObbler to be mended and it
was on the way back, wearing her
