about the skirt and a coatee wWeb

the sleeves and upper half of the

An attractive suit la fashioned
from a squirrel grey material. It
Is made three quarter length and
belted In at the walat by a narrow
band while the bottom of the coat,
collar and cuffs are squirrel far.
The court presentation scene, of
course, demands a very elaborate
town and Miss Hyland appears to
great advantage In a white silk net
over an Ivory satin while bands of
silver show through the net here
and there, The entire walat and
oversklrt which falls In points to
the hips Is of silver spangle* and
beada while from the back of her
head falls a long court 'train of
white silk net bound here and there
with silver bands and attached to
her hair by two short, curly plumes
of a silver tint.
Her riding habit, too, is most at-
tractive. It I* made with the short
split skirt of black chiffon broad-

are sure to delight the feminine por-

Plush your kidneys occasionally
if you eat meat regularly.
No mau or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally,
says a well-known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which clogs the kid-
ney pores so they sluggishly filler
or strain only part Of the watte and
poisons from the blood, then you got
sick. Nearly ail rheumatism, hfead-
nches, liver : trouble nervousness,
constipation, dlsiluess, sleeplessness,
bladder disorders come from slug-
gish kidneys.
The moment you feol a dull ache
In the kidneys or your back hurts,or
If the urine Is cloudy, full of sedi-
ment, Irregular of passage or at-
tended by a sensation of sealdlug,
set about four ounces of Jad Halts
from any reliable pharmacy and
take a tablespoonful In a glass of
water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will then act
line. This ramous salts is made
from the add of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with Itthla and has
been used for generation* to flush
clogged kidneys und stimulate them
to activity, also to neutralise the
acids In urine so It .no longer cau*-
»* Irritation, thus ending bladder
disorders.
■Tad Salts Is inexpensive and can-
not Injure; make* a delightful effer-
vescent llthla-water drink which all
egular meat eaters should take
low and then to keep the kidneys
clean and the blood pure, thereby
avoiding serious kidney complica-
tions.—Ale. It,
