To be a man is a simple proposition. It re- quires no particular gift nor talent nor special tecnique. He has only to be as nature made him. and if nature didn't tum out a job that was any- thing to brag about it doesn't matter. He is still a man. And if he is a he-man he can get into the movies. loveliest Child “if you want your child to be s prize-ivinncr," says this mother, “hero is one rule you must. never neglect- keep the child free from constipation.” No mother can expect that her child will escape nll the ills to which child- ren are subject, but she can do much to relieve tiicir sc\'erity by following this rule. If your child is constipated, has a cold, :1 lever, no appetite or a. coated tongue, don't wait until a more ser- ious illness results. Baby's Own Tablets are a safe and simple remedy for constipation. They reduce simple fever, allay colic, relieve croup, and help to relieve the dis- tress which accompanies the cutting ol teeth. For your own peace oi mind and for the sake of your child, don't be without Baby's Own Tablets in the house. 2S cents a package at any druggisfs. I62 BABY'S QWN TABLETS (Dr. Williams’!

Maybe they have been careless enough to let themselves get a little old and tired. Or perhaps they haven't kept their hands manicured and in a nice squeezablemcndltion.

But I might as well tell you that the types of printed silks you see in the ‘ of the haute couturiers is not at all the common or garden For, alas, many women lack versatility. They could be good cooks or good society ladies. They could shine either in the nursery or the drawing room. They could step out to night clubs with husband or stay at home and keep the children covered. But it is when they try to do them all at the same time that they get things gummed up. These are, however, the ancient drawbacks to the profession of being a woman, and the feminine sex has coped with them so long that it has learned how to handle them with more or less efficiency. It is the new problems arising out of the changed conditions of modern society and modern inventions that have added more handicaps to the woman busi- ness. . mam». .-..-.v..s w“, ,~ Then marriage was a stable institution.
