That means that it will be

from SIS or less, up to any price

worth its price, for quality of

dresses. Often those lower

material put in. But it is more

cheering news to the woman
who hasn't much to spend. It's
also a good dress for the woman
to buy who wants something to
shop in, or something to put on
at home so she can save her
more expensive clothes. So
those smart frocks that are in

in the mode, and in the ward

COlIarbOne Neckline
Just to show you how really
good the fashions are at low
prices, we've Sketched three good
frocks, all less than SO. There's
a rabbits wool dress that has
as interesting detail as any
we've seen at much higher
prices, buckled at the waist and
at the high neckline, too, with
lacingS on the shoulder and to
the collar. It's in brown or
other colors, and is only $7.95.
The material is a good soft quail
ity, and the dress made we'll
enough for anyone who isn't
extremely hard to fit.
Natural Jersey New
Natural cashmere jersey
makes the dress Sketched right,
and natural jersey is an ex.
tremely smart fashion right
now. This dress repeats the
shoulder scanning of much more
expensive frocks, has clever
metal clips to fasten it, and the
belt is covered in jersey, but in
contrasting color, red, blue or
green. 1t is only $5.95. The
black dress sketched is of rough
crepe with scanning that gives
the bodice an unusual fit and
smartneSS. It buttons in the
back, and has the fashionable
"adVocat'S" collar of white
srepe. It is also priced $795.
These dresses are in misses
sizes, but others as smart are
available in yomen's sizes.

Your Health
And Diet
By LOGAN CLENDENING, MD.

BY LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D
The chemical composition of
the air we breathe is no longer
considered by hygienists to be
it's most important feature from
a health standpoint.
Although the public's belief
in the bad effect of carbon
dioxide and poisonous exhala-
tions dies hard!
The modern view is that the
important factors are the phySi-
cal factors - temperature, hui
midity and air movement.
The old idea of Pettenkofer'S
that the amount of carbon d.
oxide in a room is valuable
guide to the presence of other
harmful factors was brought
forward so years ago. The
modern hygienic viewpoint,
based on the work of Haldane
and Hill, is that the estimation
of the amount of carbon di-
oxide in the atmosphere does
not yield in formation commen-
surate with the trouble of max
ing the test.
The discomfort of being in
badly ventilated and stuffy at
mosphere results from the
body's being unable to rid it.
self of heat. This comes from
improper air movement, tenn
perature and humidity.
Only under the most extra
ordinary circumstances could
the oxygen be so reduced as to
affect the health. Indeed, the
only natural conditions in
which such a thing is possible
are mine disasters and ascents
to high attitudes. Professor
Picard took some oxygen along
in his visit to the Stratosphere,
but he is a specialist in his line
and few people are likely to be
exposed to hfs special dangers.
The instrument which the
modern hygienist uses to deter
mine the healthfulness of any
atmosphere is not a chemical
retort or test tube, but a kata-
thermometer. This is dry
thermometer which measures
the cooling power of the at
moSphere under test.
For efficient work the cool
ing power of the air must be
at a certain level in a room or
factory. What this level is has
been determined by a large
number of experiments and can
be stated mathematically, al
though the figures would not
mean anything to a person un-
familiar with the tests.

The Rhymins
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
What Women Love

Women love such trivial things!
Sheen of silk, CLINT of rings,
Dainty china on a tray,
Roses budding day by day;
Through such little things they
gain
Rest from care and ease from
pain.
Yet, so strangely are they made,
Women never are afraid
To relinquiSh luxuries,
All things made to soothe and
please,
Shining silks and jewels bright,
All things fashioned for delight.
For they love such mighty
things!
Through their souls such cour-
age rings!
Fearless they of want or cold,
Needless they of gems or gold,
In their love for truth and
trust,
All things holy all things just!

Could B have made one trick

that the marriage of cousins is
legal in some States and not in
others. I am particularly in

cousins may marry, and in what
States. F. M.
