Decorative Partition Can Make
Two-Purpose Room Attractive

Most Of these ideas are of a
type and design which makes them
very easy to build, and the con-
struction is 50 light that they
may readily be assembled and set
in place by the merest amateur
at hammer-and-saw technique.
There are literally dozens of
houses. the owners prefer waist
designs to be followed. In many
high partitions which can be top
ped with flower-boxes or act as
a shelf for ornaments or long rows
Of books. In other cases the CELL
ing-high open partition is favored,
or glass-block sections above q
solid base.
In still other homes, a variety
Of materials have been used, such
as bamboo poles set in boxes and
having real vines climbing to the
ceiling.

October Is Another Big Wedding Gift Month
by GIodys Miller
Secretary, New York Chapter. American
Institute Of Decorators

Secretary, New York Chapter. American
Institute Of Decorators
Statistics have a troublesome
effect on personal impressions
when the figures tabulated indi-
cate that June is not the only
month in the year popular for
weddings.
:, Young things in love are often
surprisingly practical, and If you
stack some Of the pro and con
arguments. October proves to be
q wonderful month to start a new
home. In many cities. 1t Is the
beginning Of the yearly rental sea-
son.
All brides hope that, among the
many pretty presents they will re-
ceive, some will be practical and
some will be new and different.
In these days. when the we'll
equipped dover chest Of old is
fantasy and not a reality, the
bride depends on the showers
given her by friends and the
checks her family sees fit to give
her.
If you are one of these friends,
you'll be truly popular If you give
her something she will like and
use. Yet choose a gift with a GER
tain originality about 1t, some
thing that will show that you have
put real thought into it.
Unless the bride has had her
own apartment for some time, she
will approach her first few &C.
casions for entertaining guests
with some trepidation. But if she
has been given or has selected
china, glass, silver and linen that
have eye appeal. color, texture and
design harmony; If she has
knack with flowers or fruit for
centerpieces, the new bride will
meet her obligations satisfactorily.
Luncheon mats and napkins
make handsome gift. To add a
touch of the unusual, why not
choose one Of the new sets that
also feature matching hand towels?
One Of these new sets comes in q
rayon and cotton fabric with a
woven finish in unusually clear
and pretty colors. One in particu-
lar is in a two-color combination
with fringed edges combining the
two colors.
The hand towels will, of course,
be used to make your bath room
ready for guests. The rayon In
these non-woven towels supplies
the extra absorbency, and they
have the feeling of cloth. They
are reasonably longlasting and are
tnexpensively disposable.
{ If a goodly reserve of these rel
atively new and well-styled arti-
Giles is kept on hand, the clever
bride can always use them for any
emergencies.
: With what pride the new hus-
band will be able to say to any
friend or colleague: Sure, come
home to dinner. My wife easily
can set another place.

working from 8 to IL hours daily
and / am able to sleep as any
normal person. l have taken six
large size bottles of HADACOL
and all my friends know | owe my
good health to HADACOL."
Mr.. Watkins is one of the many
thousands of people who suffered
from a deficiency of the B vita
minis and the minerals that HAD
ACOL contains and who, therefore,
found relief in HADACOL.
1t is a well-known scientific fact
that the lack Of only a small
amount of the B vitamins and
certain minerals in your system
will cause certain bodily disorders
such as nutritional neuritis, which
causes the aches and pains com
monty known as rheumatism, and
there is no known cure for the
ailment except the administration
Nof the needed vitamins and min
erals. This is why people who suf-
fered for years and years never
were able to obtain any relief until
they took the vitamins and miner
ais the lack of which was causing
the disorders.
HADACOL does not contain only
one but has five of the B vitamins
and four necessary minerals. 1t
comes to you in liquid form so that
it will be easily absorbed by the
blood and, therefore, carried to the
parts of the body which need them
most.
So, it matters not where you
live-no matter who you are-if
you have tried all the medicines
under the sun, you should be fair
to yourself and give this wonderful
preparation, HADACOL, a trial.
And if your disease is caused by
a lack of the B vitamins and miner
ais which HADACOL contains,
then don't go on suffering-don't
continue to make your life so
miserable. Temporary relief for you
is not enough. Take HADACOL.

order direct from The lie Blanc
Corporation, Lafayette, La, and
when the postman brings your
package, just pay the amount plus

with the order we will pay the

Then, if you don't feel perfectly
satisfied after using HADACOL
as directed, just return the empty
