by fo llo w in g these clothes tip s
given by fashion-w ise experts:
F o r n a rro w o r sloping shoul­
ders, select w ell padded shoul­
d e r tre a tm e n ts th a t give you
broadness. The square, padded
shoulder lin e is best.
F o r broad shoulders, do e v e ry ­
th in g to cut the broad shoulder
line and concentrate on ra g la n or
dolm an sleeves. Use little pad­
ding.
F la t chested figures re q u ire
soft tre a tm e n t about the neck
and bust. The ruffles and soft
lace effects are fo r these g irls ,
and they can be ve ry ch a rm in g .
F o r fu ll busted figures use v e r­
tic a l lines and the “ V ” neck
tre a tm e n t.

DR. CALDWELL’S is the wonderful sen­
na laxative contained in good old Syrup
Pepsin to make it so easy to take.
MANY DOCTORS use pepsin prepara­

cine more palatable and agreeable to
take. So be sure your laxative is con­
tained in Syrup Pepsin.
INSIST ON DR. CALDWELL’S— the fa­
vorite of millions for 50 years, and feel
that wholesome relief from constipa­
tion. Even finicky children love it.
CAUTION: Use only as directed.
The foreman believed in get­
ting the workers to cooperate with
him. In an effort to inspire them '
to an even greater output, he
called them together for a talk.
“ Whenever I enter the work-
