OVERSKIRT OF NEW WRAP GIVES STRIKING EFFECT bittle Discussions OF boveMarriaqe BY BARBARA BOYD. I it -v - ; One of the smartest Spring models yet received in this country from France is the one shown here, by Zimmerman. It is black taffeta of novel design, which shows the Influence of the overskirt. The striking bow at the back and the oddly-shaped white collar are new features. The chic toque is of black moire and straw, trimmed with osprey feathers. the bachelor. "And the man who acts that way isn't much of a man." That s true enough, and fortunately the majority of married men are not that kind. But, oh, the smallness of the man who is! It is just another form of the old idea that the wife is the slave or chattel, that the husband can do as he pleases, but that the wife must obey orders. If I had a husband like that. I'd flirt as hard as he did, and tell him that what was sauce for the gander was sauce for the goose." "No, you wouldn t laughed the bachelor. "You know that isn't your creed at all." "Well, maybe I wouldn't," admitted the bachelor girl. "I suppose I would believe in making myself so lovable, he would never know other women existed. But I wonder if a man like that would be worth loving, or worth trying to hold. I doubt it." But if she loves him and wants to hold him, or if there is a family and she must bold him, what then?" "Sometimes a man appreciates his wife more when he sees others ap preciating her," mused the bachelor girl. "But that's rather a dangerous road to a husband's appreciation. I guess the very best thing for a woman to do. In a case where her husband didn't consider himself married, would be just to work to wake up in him an appreciation of the joy and beauty of the true married life. He is ignorant of it. He is eating husks instead of good food. If she could bring him around to see that devotion to a woman who truly loves him will bring him better returns in peace and real hap piness than all the flirtations In the world with frivolous women; that true feeling has depths of happiness in it that the mere imitation or counterfeit of feeling never has, and that a home in its true sense has a joy in it for him that the life of clubs and lodges and nights with the boys knows absolutely nothing of, she would in the end have a husband who would rejoice in being married. And I guess trying to cure his flirtations by flirtations of her own would never do this. Only it is a pity. Isn't it, that a woman has to work in this way for her married happiness, when it ought to come of Itself by the very nature of the relationship." "You would never have to work for It in that way," said the bachelor, Ingratiatingly. But the bachelor girl was studying her chafing dish recipes for a new palate-tickler, and did not notice what the bachelor was saying. IhDivoreed Life By Helen Hessong Fuessle. "H1 Tbe Unmarried Husband. "IS wife is married, but he isn't," tbe bachelor was saying. . The bachelor girl's eyes grew big. "How do you mM that out?" she asked. ''This Is worse than the Wis consin idea." The bachelor laughed. "It is not an uncommon condition. Lots of married men consider themselves as free to do as they please as when they were single. But they keep their wife tied with double hard knots." "I see what you -nean. I know a married man like that myself. He flirts with every pretty girl he meets, and doesn't think he is doing a bit of harm. But let his wife look at a man twice, and he is as fiercely jealous as Othello. The way some men reason is certainly diverting," laughed the bachelor girL "Not all men are that way," objected (Copyright The Adams Newspaper Service.) A Letter From Her Brother. VAGUE forebodings as to the atti tude of her brother filled Marian as she waited anxiously for his reply to her letter. It should have reached her and she strove to divine what his delay in writing meant. When it came she opened it with a feeling of mis giving. " She looked first of all to see what the inclosure would be, and great was her disappointment to perceive a draft for only $50. Thus ran his letter: "Dear Marian: I was greatly sur prised at the news of your divorce. Of course, you knew what was best and you know me well enough to know that I m not the kind to blame you for taking what you regarded as the proper course. Getting a divorce, however, is no joke. It's just about the most serious step a woman can take. You have my deepest sympatny Decause or tnis trouble. Poor girl, you deserved a happier married life. But I can't for the life of me see why you didn't hold Frank up for alimony. I can see no earthly reason why he -shouldn't have paid for all the trouDie ne has caused you. I was afraid at the time of your marriage that you were acting hastily, but I never thought you'd get yourself Into a mess like' this. I don't mean to scold you, honey, but I want you to know1 how worried I feel about all this. Why didn't you tell me about It sooner? "Money is tighter than a drum out here just at present, with no sign of a let-up. Fifty dollars, which' I inclose, is the very best I can do right now. I've had doctor bills galore to foot. I hope this will help you out. Let me kknow what you are planning to do. 1 hope you II get a chance to come out here to the Coast to see us sometime before long. Write Boon again. Love from all. Your brother, "Wellington." Marian read the typewritten letter twice. She felt hurt at the lukewarm invitation to visit her brother and de tected a coolness and formality about the letter which his previous commu nications had not contained. Between the lines she gathered greater con demnation of her act of getting a di vorce op her brother's part than the written lines revealed. She resented his criticism on her hasty marriage. She felt more alone in the world after reading the letter twice than she had ever felt before in her life. CALENDAR FOB TODAY.

TS. writes, "I am a reader of The Morning Oregonian and noticed your column 'Hints on Health.' "Fourteen Tnonths ago I had a severe cold which lasted for a considerable length of time. After 1 recovered from it I was taken 111 with leakage pf valves of the heart, which the doctor called mitral regurgation. I recovered from the heart trouble, but since then I have been constantly troubled with a cold, creepy feeling in my limbs from the knees downward, and a hot, creepy feeling in my head, which is very dis agreeable. . Otherwise I am well. "What do you think is the cause of this? Would you kindly advise me what to do for it? Reply. This excess of blood in the head and a lack in the lower extremities may be due to the condition of tbe heart, but is more than likely due to nervous dis turbances acting through . the yaso morot nerves, or the nerve that regu lates the blood supply in the various parts of the body. More or less worry, nervousness, constipation or indiges tion could give rise to such feeling. As a "relief I would suggest a hot foot and leg bath for 15 minutes, fol low with a dash of cold water and vigorous friction with a rough towel. After this treatment give the legs a quick alcohol rub. Do this morning and evening, and this uncomfortable feeling, with the cold feet, will disap pear. When you get your feet warm you will not have too much blood in the head. No doubt walking and more outdoors will improve the circulation in the legs. Cattarrh. Mr. W. A. B. writes from Etna Mills, Cal., "I am very much interested in your 'Hints on Health' in The Daily Oregonian. I wish you would write an article on catarrh, from which I am suffering. I have tried so many reme dies that I am becoming to believe that it is incurable. "If it is not improper, I would like to ask if the two inclosed prescriptions, one for kidney trouble and the other for catarrh of the head and bronchial tubes, are of any value. They are cut from an advertisement carried In the daily papers. "I cannot tell from this man's ad vertisement whether he is a Good Sa maritan or is seeking to capitalize the ills and pains of humanity." Reply. . 1. Similar inquiries have been re ceived the last few days, to 'which answer has been made In The Orego nian. I would suggest that you look over the replies and see if the sugges tion will not help you. You say that you have tried many remedies and have received no benefit. If you have not been examined by a specialist I would suggest that you do so. It is possible that you may have enlarged turbinated or polypi, or espur in your nostril, or some local condition that makes a cure Impossibly without the proper treatment Catarrh of the nose or throat does not cause a catarrh cf the stomach or intestines. There is no relation at all; however, a person may have what is called a catarrh of the digestive organs at the same time, but that is only a coincidence, of which the cause is a general rundown condition. Catarrh does not "run through all the system" because one has catarrh of the nose or throat. 2. The prescriptions you speak about may be all right, at least I can see no harm from their use in a trial. But so far as taking any medicine internally to help catarrh of the head is con cerned, it would do as much good as swallowing a pill to remove a mole on the nose.

The popular "Ainaret" style vas shown in Pictorial Review four months before it appeared in any other pattern company publication. The first draped skirts were shown seven months before other companies illustrated this very popular design.

We believe Pictorial Review will lead all others by many months in pre senting this dainty and delightful design. The Easter Fashion Number contains the newest and smartest styles, received from Fan's during the last few weeks. In it you will find new designs never shown before In our own or In any other American publication.

March 13 1 know of several women who have made a success of making home-made nut, fruit and vegetable butters. Many people buy peanut, pecan and other nut but ters and also butter made from nearly every kind of fruit, and from many vegetables, and most people would much prefer it when home-made. Any woman who can make good but ter from these things, and who will put it up attractively, can find a mar ket for it amongst her friends and neighbors, or she can make arrange ments to have her grocer sell it for her on commission.

Remember tbe "dose" mother insisted on castor oil, calomel, cathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against taking them. With- our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't realize what they do. The children's revolt Is well-founded. Their tender little' "insides" are Injured by them. ( If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli clous "California Syrup of Figs. Its action is positive, but gentle. Millions of mothers keep this harmless "fruit laxative" handy; they know children love to take it; that it never fails to clean the liver and bowels and sweeten the stomach, and that a teaspoonful given today saves a sick child tomor row. Ask your druggist for a SO-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs." which has full directions for babies, children or all ages and for grown-ups plainly on each bottle. Beware of coun terfeits sold here. See that it is made by "California Fig Syrup Company." Refuse any other kind with contempt.
