Dressnaker Suit
Hides Figure
Faults
BY ELEANOR GUM

NEW YORK-The woman whose
~ figure shows q middle-age
spread has to be careful in her
choice Of suits. Unless they are
tailored to her measurements they
are not, as rule. successful, except
when she chooses q soft or dress.
maker variety. The suit with easily
fitted lines and q casual type of
drape or fastening saves the day
for her, since It Is pretty generally
established that no woman who
considers herself well dressed can
be without at least one suit.
The softer ones, especially when
worn with softening accessories
ruffled blouse or jabot-are really
flattering to figures that are little
out Of control. The kind Of hat one
wears helps a lot. too.
The classic tailleur should be
worn with a suit hat but this dress.
maker suit, in whose praise we sing.
may be worn with almost any sort
Of hat-at least any hat that could
be worn with dress comparable to
a soft suit.
Speaking Of hats. here are three
shades milliners are backing to win:
Johnny Blond, Sally Blue and Tiger
Lily. The last Of the three Is not
really as bright as a tiger lily. but
1t has plenty Of oomph and Is very
good with navy.
Many hats have what their orig
inators call q suspension back, US
ually an elongated section Of the
crown that fits the head and holds
the hat on without disturbing the
hairdo.
Strange as 1t seems, bicycle clips
are used. covered over to anchor the
straight-on -the-head hat which.
from present indications. is the new
line at which a hat should be worn.
The upswept hairdo Is. according
to milliners who have worked out
their designs with hairdressers. the
most fashionable hairdo. but the
new hats are designed to be worn on
top Of the pompadour or fiat. not
back, on the head.
More anon about hats, since they
are very exciting and give the first
reinsurance that spring is not far
away.

for. Very frequently with all the
symptoms Of excess acidity. 1t Is
found that there Is really lack Of
acid rather than excess. Without
hydrochloric acid, the digestion Of
proteins Is retarded. Fermentation
and irritation Of the stomach mu-
cous membranes present most Of
the symptoms which appear with
an over-supply of acid. Indeed. an
excess Of acid is uncommon. but 1t

general nervous disturbance may

before the acid becomes thoroughly
mixed with the food.
Symptoms May Return
Most Of the cases Of hyperacidity
are due to abuse, such as ill-choSen
food, bad combinations. poor mas
tication. rapid eating. too much
condiments and spices and lack Of
rest before and after eating.
In treating one of these cases, at
tention should be given to the gen.
eral nervous system and to habits
of eating and working. as well as to
the stomach condition. Nerve seda-
tives, such as the bromides, will
frequently relieve the trouble. Diet
Is important and one should avoid
irritating foods, such as spices, cof-
fee, alcohol, or uncooked foods. All
foods should be thoroughly cooked.
and chewed or minced. Food can be
taken every two or three hours. but
one long period of rest for the stom-
ach should be arranged every day.
A glass OF hot water should be
taken before meals.
Anti-acids, such as bicarbonate
of soda or magnesium. If taken be-
fore meals will soothe the stomach
walls. If taken after meals. the d.
gestion of starchy foods Is checked
and this inhibitS the production Of
acid. Milk may be the only food
tolerated for long time, followed
by bland. well-cooked foods. This
program. with an abundance OF
rest, will usually result In the res
toration Of normal digestion.
