Is Your Work Hard? Is your work wearing you out? Are you tortured with throbbing backache —feel tired, weak and worn out? Then look to your kidneys! Many occupations tend to weaken the kidneys. Constant backache, headaches, aizziness and rheumatic pains result. One suffers annoying kidney irregularities; feels nervous, irritable and worn out. Don’t wait! Use Doan's Pills—& stimulant diuretic to the kidneys. Workers everywhere recommend Doan's. They should help you, too. Ask your neighbor! An Indiana Case

Cliff Snyder, painter, 210 W. Semi nary St., Liberty, Ind., says: “A cold settled in my kidneys and I had dull pains in my back.

When I bent { /y over a knifelike /%/

pain caught me.

I felt tired and ^ *

•worn out and was dizzy, too. I had to get up many times at nig.ht to pass the kidney secretions and they contained sediment and burned in passage. Doan’s Pills rid me of the

trouble.”

A Kind Boss A prosperous young man of the city was touring through a Western state. He met a tramp and gave him a lift of several miles. Stopping at a small town they both had a good meal at th# expense of the young man. The journey then was continued and at another town the tramp suggested they eat again. He finished first and under the pretense of buying a cigar he paid for b6th plates. Having finished, the y*oung man went to pay. ‘‘It’s paid for,” the cashier informed him. “Who paid for it?” “Your boss,” pointing to the tramp. —Indianapolis News.

Platinum in Colombia

Although before the revolution Russia was the greatest platinum-produc-ing country in the world, Colombia is now one of the greatest producing centers. Before Russia lost its place as head of the list, Colombia was second. In the Transvaal, South Africa, there are also great platinum deposits. The present contribution of the United States is less than 1,000 ounces r. year, most of this coming from California. Science has succeeded in producing platinum from scrap ores that appear to contain only traces of other metals.

Rippling Skirts Favored in Paris

The couturier who regards his vocation as an art aims to distinguish himself in it. This is especially true of the Parisian creator of fashions whose clientele looks to him for something particularly adapted to an individual style. Although the general trend of the season is taken into account, notes a Paris fashion writer in tlie New York Times, those .couturiers who have attained prestige are known by their own special treatment of costume. Each lias an individualized conception of beauty in line, in design, in color and in fabric; and each has a following both in Europe and in America. Martial et Armand claim the distinction of having introduced the flare, the conspicuous feature of the present mode. To create an entirely new style that reverses the old is in itself a radical step, an adventure, in its way. The fashion public is fickle and gives up old favorites reluctantly, though it clamors for novelty. To present the advanced idea first requires a certain sense of security in the public’s opinion, a sureness of touch. The designer proposes, but it is the woman of fashion who disposes. If she accepts the new version, it becomes established. If she does not, its life is short. The straight-line, the chemise, gown and tube skirt exhausted the possibilities in that type of dress. They became commonplace to monotony. The pendulum had to swing the other way, and so it has done. The success of the Innovation is illustrated in innumerable ways in costumes of great art and beauty. The corning of the flare has been prophesied from time to time for several seasons. Now and then a slight hint of it appeared in a tiny godet or u slight ripple. The name of a swagger couturier would carry it a little way and women who wanted it for eccentricity would affect it for a time. But tlie straight, slim silhouette, beloved of the slender figure, died hard. Last season the coming of the flare was certain. All of the Parisian creators swung to it. hut Madame, the ditectress of this prominent establishment of the Place Vendome, claims tlie honor of having shown first the charm of rippling skirts in a whole collection of beautiful gowns for every occasion. Use of Silk and Velvet.

In making good this claim, Martial et Armand are presenting this season some of the most attractive costumes ever conceived in their atelier. These run through the entire list of the requirements of fashion from tlie simplest frock for morning or all day, to the most pretentious outfit for afternoon or evening. The fabrics range from the richest velvets and silks, and the most splendid brocades, to plain woolens and leather. None among the Parisian designers has made more delightful and alluring use of silk velvet, the material de luxe, which fashion prophets and manufacturers of dress goods have long urged upon style lead-

Velvet Is the Material of Inset Border and Sleeve Effects.

nity Martial et Armand apply the flaring flounce in a clever arrangement, plain across the front but swinging full from side to side across the back. This gown, of soft green crepe, forms part of a handsome ensemble, the coat of which, dark green ribbed silk, has a flounce around the bottom. Tills, too, is plain in front, flaring at the sides and back, where it is finished at the upper edge with an up-curved line. The flounce is divided at the middle of the Back, and the band of beaver, which borders the bottom, is continued up the overlapping side, narrowing toward the top. The sleeves of this exceptionally smart wrap are plain and narrow with wide cuffs of beaver, and the high enveloping collar is also of beaver. For the more elaborate daytime gowns, wraps and ensembles, these couturiers are using all the new rich au-

Matching Georgette. tumn colors in velvet and the Bianchini fabrics. The green, blues, burgundy and bronze are especially lovely. Fur is seen on many of these, mostly soft close furs, such as beaver, squirrel, natural seal, and innumerable dyed furs. Fox is the one favorite among the longer furs, and Russian sable holds its own as ever before. Elegance and Grace. Tlie Martial et Armand evening models are achievements in elegance and grace. In, these, also, the materials are drawn from the widest range, from the most delicate filmy clouds of tulle, georgette and chiffon to the glittering lame cloths and metallic brocades. In these the fullness In drapery is all at the back. In several beautiful gowns this fullness is created by gathering the material across the back, and by hanging it almost, if not quite, plain across the front. This is done with success in a splendid dinner gown of gold lame. The bodice is plain, following snugly the lines of the figure. A wide, soft girdle of the lame, richly embroidered in jewels, is swathed about the hips in lines that cross in an original arrangement, with two short plaited ends. The width of lame gathered across the back has the uneven lower edge, now so fashionable, dropping almost to the floor at one side. In the softer materials drapery that depends from the % shoulder in scarf or jabot effect is shown. An unusually graceful model of delicate green crepe chiffon has a deep flounce of the material, dotted with gold and silver beads, attached to the back of its long, slim bodice. The crepe falls in a deep cascade, caught in a cluster of plaits on each shoulder and folded in a point several inches below ’ the hem of the gown. This has the appearance of a slender cape in voluminous folds. The low V decollete neck is outlined with a band of gold and silver embroidery, which is used also to finish the top of the flounce across the front of the dress.

ers. Its present popularity is due largely to the manner In which the foremost artists have adapted it. In one particularly chic gown of black velvet, done by Martial et Armand, the especial treatment of the flare this house is featuring is shown in a charming manner. The entire scheme of trimming is at the back of the gown. The bodice, which has a round high neck, a flat lace collar and long plain sleeves, is drawn long and snug over the hips, and caught at each side of the back with two short pieces trimmed with buttons. The bodice and underskirt are one in front, and at the back is added a circular flounce, dipping in the middle almost to the bottom of the skirt and shortened at the sides. This tunic flounce is trimmed with a band of brown dyed squirrel with which the sleeves are finished at the wrist. 'n another xsodel of richness and dlg-

Jeune Fille Models. Some engaging jeune fille models are presented in original designs. The latest materials show the autumn wood colors, warm reds and greens shaded from dark ivy and myrtle to bronze green, with a glint of gold, revived from the color fashions of long ago. Navy blue and the duller shades are passe this season, and royal blue is popular. Black is used for many youthful frocks and suits, also much scarlet, often In combination with black. The materials include tlie new reps, both in the fine and the heavier lines, diagonals, mixtures, velvets and plaids, to some extent, though less than heretofore. Fullness that gives freedom at the bottom of the skirt is the point illustrated in almost all of the new models. It Is done with a circular, bias or plaited use of the material.

f ::z=z=:-——:—l.':.--:— The Higher Mathematics By H. IRVING KING ■,i~ . ■- ■ (Copyright.) FT GRACE G. KILTON was a mathAl ematician, wore glasses aud was lather lean and lanky. Mathematicians are apt to get that way, somehow. He was young, too—only twen-ty-eight—so there was time for improvement. Mabell Streeter was younger yea—just twenty—and you couldn’t have improved on her if you had tried. She was about perfect, just as she was—only she was no mathematician. She took the multiplication table on faith; though that faith was sorely tried when she attempted to put the said table into practical use. But then there was no especial reason why Mabell should toy with the multiplication table any more than with the fourth dimension, or the doctrine of least squares. By concentrating her mind upon it she could keep a fairly accurate count at bridge —and that was sufficient. Until she met Horace: then she keenly felt her deficiencies and longed for logarithms. Horace was instructor in the academy on the hill and Mabell was the belle of the town. It was strange how these two so opposite people inclined to each other. Mabell, of course, was active In all the “uplift” work of the community and was made treasurer of all the societies she joined—her accounts were so accurately kept! The fact was that if left to her own devices tiie various societies of which Mabell was treasurer would never have been able to find out whether they were in a plutocratic or a “busted” condition. But Horace cast his astigmatic gaze over the accounts, made a few mental lightning calculations, and had them all “ship shape and Bristol fashion” in something rather less than three shakes of a lamb’s tail. Now Mabell’s father, Sam Streeter, was a man of wealth and varied financial interests; and looked frowningiy upon the intimacy between his daughter and the poorly paid teacher from the academy. “You’ll have to cut out that four-eyed calculating machine,” said the fond parent to his daughter. “I hear he only gets twelve hundred dollars a year and is never likely to get a raise.” “Oh pa, how cruel you are!” replied Mabell. “Horace is in his profession because he loves it.” “Don’t let me see him hanging about here any more,” snapped Mr. Streeter. But Horace hung around as usual. Mabell was a good girl, but obstinate; Old Streeter glared at the mathematician whenever they met and treated him very rudely indeed—the more so that the rich man was just now in a highly irritable state consequent upon his attempt to make out his in-come-tax returns himself instead of hiring a lawyer to do it—for Streeter was tight-fisted and lost no chance to save money. “Oh father,” cried Mabell when, in a moment of weakness, her father had confided to her the cause' of his irritability, “why don’t you get Horace to help you? He is simply wonderful. Why, he even understands the Goldstein theory.” “Bosh!” remarked Streeter, and flung out of the house. When he came home that evening there was Horace, as usual, beaming benignly through his glasses at Mabell. “I’ll settle that young man’s hash here and now,” thought Streeter and said: “Mr. Kilton, please step into the library. No, Mabell—you stay right where you are.” When the two men were alone together Streeter glared at the mathematician and said pompously: “I wish to speak plainly to you concerning your attentions to my daughter. My conduct toward you has been such that one would have supposed—” “Oh, that’s all right,” broke in Horace cheerfully; “Mabell told me what was the matter. You are worried over your income-tax returns. Perfectly simple, I assure you, sir. All that is required, even in the most complicated cases, is the application of the mere rudiments of mathematics. I have just made out my own returns and happen to have them with me. I was intending to mail them on my way home.” Hd drew an envelope Irom his pocket and from the envelope extracted the documents. “You will observe, sir,” went on Horace spreading the filled-up forms on the table, “that”—and he went into a careful and scientific explanation. Streeter did not understand the explanation ; but he did understand that the supposedly poor mathematician was a wealthy man who had inherited large properties. “Quite so, quite so,” said he when Horace had run down. “As I was saying about you and Mabell, why, if she is satisfied, and you want her— why take her. As to those infernal tax returns of mine—here—just cast your eyes over them.” In half an hour by the clock Horace had Streeter’s income tax all straightened out and was holding hands with Mabell on the parlor sofa.
