Evening gowns are out of tune with
the times, and the dress that can be
worn as well in the afternoon as in the
evening Is the one usually chosen by
the bride of a soldier or sailor. Then,
too, the piles of fragrant household
lines are not required at present. The
little bride will have plenty of time
to make them, afterward.
When one comes to think of it, ail
this haste has one real value. In olden
days, “before the war,” the bride, her
family, and all her friends worked
themselves, into a state boardering on
hysteria “getting ready." There was
no end to the embroidery and sewing,
the parties and "showers,■' and every
one concerned breathed a sigh of re
lief, knowingly or unknowingly, when
it was all over. This is not so now-
days, when everything cf necessity
must be simple and without fuss.

At one time it was considered stodgy
and frumpish to "do the sensible
thing.” Ail the glamour was taken
out of life and as to having a sensible

jMr. R. L. Poston, of Lillie, La., writes: “Some weeks ago I was suffering
with something like dumb chills. I Just ached all over, my skin would feel
clammy. I ached worse from my knees down. I didn't rest well nights, and
my appetite wasn’t good. I was afraid I would get down In bed and so much
to do In the Spring ot the year. I began to look around for something
to help me and decided to try Ziron...I had not taken one third of a bottle
until I felt much better. I grew stronger, began to get hungry and did not
have any more of the chills. I think Ziron Is a splendid tonic.”
