4 FEELING OF SECURITY
You naturally feel secure when you
know that the medicine you are about to
take is absolutely pure and contains no
harmful or habit producing drugs.
Such a medicine is Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root, kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The same standard of purity, strength
and excellence is maintained in every bot
tle of Swamp-Root.
It is scientifically compounded from
vegetable herbs.
It is not a stimulant and is taken in
teaspoonful doses.
It is not recommended for everything.
It is nature’s great helper in relieving
and overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
troubles.
A sworn statement of purity is with
every bottle of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
Root.
If you need a medicine, you should
have the best. On sale at all drug stores
in bottles of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to try this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure
and mention this paper.—Advertisement.

my little 9-month-old baby had dys

said Mrs. Nettie Barnes, South Bay,

teething and he was never sick a

It is not always safe to follow the

who wore her pearls in the morning
was—well, “one of those women who

Gadsby regarded the lace collar on
“the impossible woman’s” riding habit.
For several seasons past one has no
ticed a decided change in attitude.
The costume that achieves success at
one of the great openings will have on
it something that is really “wrong”-
or rather wrong according to sartorial
beliefs for generations. White or

scarlet leather. It is not practical, it

Dyed cotton iace, none too fine and
obviously machine made, appears on
an exquisite dinner gown made In the
grand manner. At first we are startled,
and then we realize that it is charm

striking, all amusing, and all more
charming and of more character than
the “correct” conventional detail.
An exquisite Peggy Hoyt evening
frock of the “picture” type is of vivid
pink taffeta gathered to a close-fitting
bodice so that it stands out like an
old-fashioned crinoline. They are iove

on it in darker pink chenille and fine
gold thread. It is a gown that might
be worn with the hair smoothly parted
and in ringlets at the nape of the
neck. But the charming person wear

and ultra modern cloche hat of black
velvet, very tiny and tight and almost

wear with a tallleur. It is the wrong
note; It is delightful.
A severely tailored tallleur of

and a plain cloche hat. Trailing out of

entirely out of keeping with the cos

Two other examples are the use of
a tiny face veil on a sports hat; a use
of lace that once would have been an
unpardonable sin. The hat Is of beige

Sun Room Helps Save

A sun room Is desirable in the

too cold, especially mornings and
evenings, In other rooms. A sun room
that has become heated during the day
may be kept closed and the heat thus
retained until long after dark.
In this room, where warmth is the
desideratum, warm colors may be used
appropriately If one's fancy so dic

an effective warm color, though great
care must be taken in selecting fa
brics of that color, as it Is sadly in

in gay colors add to the warmth of

In 1824, an English mason wanted to
produce a better cement than any then in
use. To do this he burned finely ground
clay and limestone together at a high
heat. The hard balls [called clinker] that
resulted were ground to a fine powder.
When a mixture of this dull gray powder
with water had hardened, it was the color
of a popular building stone quarried on
the Isle of Portland off the coast of Eng'
land. So this mason, Joseph Aspdin,
called his discovery “portland” cement.
That was less than one hundred years
ago.
Portland cement was not made in the
United States until fifty years ago. The
average annual production for the ten
years following was only 36,000 sacks.
Last year the country used over 470,000,-
000 sacks of portland cement. Capacity
to manufacture was nearly 600,000,000
sacks.
Cement cannot be made everywhere
because raw materials of the necessary
chemical composition are not found in
sufficient quantities in every part of the
country. But it is now manufactured in
27 states by 120 plants. There is at least
one of these plants within shipping dis
tance of any community in this country.
To provide a cement supply that would
always be ample to meet demand has
meant a good deal in costly experience
to those who have invested in the cement
industry. There have been large capital
investments with low returns.
In the last twenty-five years, 328 ce
ment plants have been built or have gone
through some stage of construction or
financing. 162 were completed and placed
in operation.
Only 120 of these plants have survived the
financial, operating and marketing risks of that
period. Their capacity is nearly 30 per cent
greater than the record year’s demand.
These are a few important facts about an
industry that is still young. Advertisements to
follow will give you more of these facts, and
will tell something of the important place ce
ment occupies in the welfare of every individual.
