STRIPED JERSEY IN
DIFFERENT EFFECTS

It's incredible the different effects
you can get with striped jersey. Take
it in yellow and white, for instance,
for a sports dress with the stripes run,
ming up and down. There is two
inch panel down the front, clear from
the neck to the hem of the skirt, with
the stripes running crossways. A "
cut yoke gives the blouse geometric
look and a black satin belt and tri-
angular scarf knotted at the throat are
all the trimming necessary.
With this particular dress there is
a coat of black and white striped jer-
sey, the stripes through the body of
the coat Goose and three-Quarters)
run crossways while for the justice
low-the-elbow sleeves they run up and
down. Standing out from the Shout
ders and tapering to nothing under the
arms are awning effects in the cross
way run of the stripe.

a S TO the fantastic touches Of fur

not dull moment in prospect for
the autumn and winter season through.
Because of their departure from the
commonplace, the incoming fur-adorned
coats are proving nothing less than
sensation. Do not be surprised at any
of the doings of these new fur embel-
lishments, for they are just about as
tricky as human ingenuity can devise.
Not even If the structure of coat de-
velops single fur pocket, with no
other to balance it at the opposite
side, are you supposed to register
questioning glance. Likewise, If little
fur bows gambol up and down a front
fastening, or if they stray off to
sleeves and shoulders, accept their
idiosyncrasies with good grace, for the
antics which they perform are all in
the cause Of smart fashioning. So also
are the narrow strips of fur run criss-
cross or spirally up and down the en-
tire length Of a coat sleeve-just wait
until you see SOME of the tricks the
new fur trimmings are playing!
Perhaps the most startling role of
all in which fur is starring is that OF
the new collars, which are that refresh
ingly out Of the ordinary, they bespeak
season 1933-34 at glance. By way of
proving that it's every whit true, cast
your eye toward the seated figure in
the picture. Unusual to the Nth de-
gree is the fur device which collars
this stitched rough wool coat whose
color is rich autumn beige. A many
way affair. is this chic collar. That is,
you can adjust it to suit your within

cite is exQuisitely defined in tall, slen-
deriving form-fitting lines. The mar
row tubular contour gives way to
breadth at the shoulders where in
genious contrivances break into square
architectural effects. For the most
part they are trimmed in short-hair
furs such as beaver, Persian lamb,
mink, weasel, and often gay-spotted
pelts, these fur touches concentrat-
ing about the neck and shoulders in
cunning ways.
Lots of brown is coloring the au-
tumn fashion picture. In the instance
of the striped model, centered above
in this trio of smart new coat fash
ions, the material is brown on beige

reflect harmonizing brown.
The young-looking checked travel or
sports coat, if you prefer so to call it,
to the right in the illustration, is also
brown and beige. The belt is brown,
so is the beaver fur which trims it.
The Peter Pan collar ties with a bow
of the checked material, which is a
very youthful way of doing.

not weak bowels, but strong

First. Select a good liquid laxa-

Here's Why:

Any hospital offers evidence of the
harm done by harsh laxatives that
drain the system, weaken the bowel
muscles, and in some cases even
affect the liver and kidneys.
A doctor will tell you that the
unwise choice of laxatives is a COM
mon cause of chronic constipation.
Fortunately. the public is fast
returning to the use of laxatives
in liquid form.
A properly prepared liquid laxa-
tive brings a perfect movement.
There is no discomfort at the time
and no weakness after. You don't
have to take "a double dose" a day
or two later.
In buying any laxative, always
read the label. Not the claims, but
the contents. If it contains one
doubtful drug, don't take it.

Powder Compacts Are Now
Made to Match Costume

The latest wrinkle in this matching
up business in the smart feminine cos
tune is to match the powder compact
with the frock.
For linen suits there are compacts
that look as though linen weave had
bee~ impressed onto their covers.
They come, as one might expect, in
black, white, blue and in natural
shade of linen.
And to go with pique, that smart
fabric of the moment in frocks and
accessories, there are compacts the

of that cotton material.

Sailor collars are on the fashion
map once more. The call for square
shoulder lines is responsible for the
revival of these youthful sailor effects.
If the dress or blouse you are consid-

upon it being the latest. The satin

PINE STREET RESIDENT
MAKES COMPLAINT OF
WILFUL ACTS

That wilful destruction Of plants
continues is stated by Mrs. Con-
sorcia Noda, who lives on Pine
street, and who reports that she
is unable to get any plants or
shrubs to grow on account of
children who enter her yard and
seem to delight in tearing up her
plants, and not content with this,
pull them to pieces and leave them
in shreds in her garden.
Mrs. Noda states that she has re-
peatedly appealed to parents of
the children whom she knows, but
nothing apparently has been done
in the matter since the destruc-
ton continues. Aside from gar
dening being pleasure to her,
Mrs. Noda states that she wants
to raise plants and flowers to
beautify her cemetery lot where
her loved ones rest, and if chill
dren continue to enter her garden
and destroy her property she will
have recourse to law to prevent
what is nothing more than want
on destruction of her property.

The Florida Avocado Growers
Exchange expresses dissatisfaction
with the ruling of the United

Hence they have filed a petition
asking that the honorable judges of

alleged errors made by the court
in rendering their decision.
This case was heard in Key West
in March /, 1882. The Avocado
Growers Exchange brought to the
hearing an array of legal talent
and a number of witnesses to prove
that the alligator pear, or avoca-
do, should be classed in the same
family as the common or Bartlett
pear.
The hearing lasted several days
at the end Of which the court ad-
journed, every phase of the mat
ter thoroughly thrashed out, il was
believed and all that was left was
for the court to render its de-
cision.
This was expected in about four
months. However. it was almost

EARLY THIS MORNING. BUT
GOT MONEY LATER

Grief. which was later turned to
happiness, were the emotional ex-
periences of employees of the I'm

When the employees assembled to
receive pay for the tasks assigned
they anticipated being paid
promptly as usual. Later Arthur

money paid today.
The reason given being that E.

Shortly after II o'clock a phone
message from the Strunk residence

felt slightly improved and would
attend to the business.
During the week there have
been two paydays for the employees
