    SIMPLE COTTON FROCKS;
PRETTY ORGANDIE DRESS

SPRING comes graciously along with
;in array of pretty morning frooks
calculated to turn the heads of ull
women. They an- beautifully and
simply designed, of printed and other
cottons and they Justify the allegiance
that American women have shown to
them for generations. Designers seem
to have outdone themselves In the clev
erness and variety of these cheerful,
everyday dresses, and the best thing
of all Is that every woman can have
them; alluring materials for making
them are broadcast everywhere.
English prints recall, In their pat

such cotton fabrics must not he

simple and conservative, a chemise

Patch pockets, cut on the Idas of the
goods, are extended at the tides into

rows the fresh crispness of white or
gandie in a finishing fold.
The other frock is made of checked
gingham comblneil*with dotted swiss.
Bands of the swiss set in at each lde
of the bodice and in the sleeves, aided
by narrox ruffles, complete the adorn
ment of this delightful morning frock.
Over the horlion of the little folks
It is the peep-o'-dawn of summer
time and the long vacation. Spring lias
been generous, scattering about field
flowers and pretty clothes at the same
time for them, and already commence
ments, vacations and Journeys occupy
the minds of those who must see to
the outfitting of the younger genera
tion for Its glorious summer.
Everywhere In the stores there Is
almost no end of pretty cotton goods
j that entice the designers of children's
I clothes to make the most of their
gifts. All the old favorites ure here,
i some of them In new patterns, and the
i choice of fabrics Is wide enough.
Lawn, dimity, organdie, English
prints, ehumbrtiy, cotton crepe, glng- j
ham, and twill make up the hulk of '
little folks’ outerwear.
The pretty organdie dress for a little j
lady, as shown In the picture, Is typ-
leal of summer styles. It Is short
wnlsted and short-sleeved with a
round neck slit about three Inches
down tiio front. The skirt portion has
three wide bands of organdie, bound
with a checked pattern In organdie, set
on, and this same binding finishes the
neck and sleeves. A similar band con
ceals the joining of the body and
skirt. Colored cotton floss serves to
make the needlework rings that are
set en the sleeves and neck and they
are used as a tlnish for the bnnds.
The dress Is pictured In white with
red and white trimming, but It might
be made In any light color with suit
able contrasts employed In trimming.
Smocking in high colors, em
broidered dots, buttonholing and other
needlework, retain the favor of dis
criminating buyers of children's
clothes. Small silk cord and tassels
for ties at the neck and cord girdles
are among the novel features of the
new styles.

WOMEN NEED SWAMP-ROOT
Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trwible and never suspect it.
Women’s complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidnev trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
. condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp
toms of kidney trouble.
Don’t delay starting treatment. Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a physician’s pre
scription, obtained at any drug store, may
be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.
Get a medium or large size bottle im
mediately from any drug rtore.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr. j
Kilmer A Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a

His Great Mistake.
Joseph Levensou, head of New
York’s motion picture censorship, said
at a luncheon:
“The movies do a lot of good. But
they do harm, too, sometimes. Think
of the love affairs they break off!”
“ ‘lt’s all over,’ a young man groaned
one day. ‘lt’s all over now between
Mabel and me.’
“ ‘Sorry to hear that, old chap,’ said
a second young man. ‘What caused
the split, may I ask?’
“‘I took Mabel to the movies last
night, and she said that the heroine
of the serial called ‘The Pact of
Death” was a beautiful girl.
“ ‘Well?’
“ ‘Well, I agreed with her.’ ”
It takes a wise man to know the
difference between opportunity and
a gambler’s chance.
One of life’s peculiarities is that the
world is seldom watching a man when
he is doing good.

And the Discussion Ended.
Two little boys, living in different
towns, one day were visiting an aunt
in a distant city. A discussion arose
between them as to the merits of their
home towns. The heights of their re
spective churches became a part of
the discussions.
“Our church reaches above the tree
tops.” said one.
“Our church reaches to the sky,”
retorted the other.
“Oh, but the steeple of our church
reached clear above the sky and
punched a hole through heaven,” ex
claimed the first boy, and this closed
the argument.
“Luciferous," Illuminated.
Lloyd George is said to have used
the word “luciferous.” An unusual
adjective, btrt not, we think, an inven
tion ■sf his. An Englishman asked an
acquaintance what he would under
stand by ‘tfc. luciferous story.” The
other replied: “Like one of yours; a
devilish bad one.”—Boston Transcript.
