In any case, whether the cap is plain or decorated colored or black, it 18 as closeSing as adroit cut and shaping can H l '™,' status of the sequin and jeweled cap is good, for it is said to be receiving response from the lowliest -riced to tlie highest priced markets. Visualizing the complete costume that may be either an unadorned dress and velvet cap to match, or ornatelv designed dress generously bejeweled, and with cap to match, each with cocktail jacket, the effect is pleasing and new in appeal. The hearty endorsement accorded irregular hemline in evening dresses has driven some designers to reflect that when a mode is at its height, it is well to look for signs of a change, and accordingly one sees evidences of an inclination to straighten the hemline. Many of the evening frhcks in late autumn collections have lost some of their pronounced dipping, and while they are not straight In the exact meaning of the word, they reveal a tendency towards achieving a much more balanced line.

MRS. MARSHALL 1 • BOOSTS SMITH ; I Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall, widow of i77u late vlte-president of the United • States, recently was elected president 1 of flu- Woman's Smith Robinson Club 1 of southern California, with headquarters at Ixis Angeles. If she can ar- ; range to leave her duties in that capacity, she will come to Indiana for a short while to speak for Governor Alfred E. Smith and the democratic ticket. In a letter to her friend, Mrs. L. G. Ellingham, of Fort Wayne, Mrs 1 Marshall emphasized the fitness of J Mrs. Alfred E. Smith for mistress of 1 tlie White House. The letter to Mrs . r r Ellingham, is as follows: 1 My dear Mrs. Ellingham: I ’ “I am very glad. Indeed, to express I my opinion of Mrs. Smith's fitness to j preside over the White House, and as ■ I feel sure she is going to be called I upon to occupy that position, the ] American people will have opportun- I ity to find that my judgment is cor- i rect. , "My opinion is based upon the in- I formation I have gained by reading | 1 and her conduct at the democratic J ' convention at Houston. “I called at her box after the convention to congratulate her on her I husband's nomination as soon as the | vote was announced. 1 found her very cordial, indeed, and with perfect ■ poise. Her first thought was to prej sent the children who were with her in the box, and they too were well mannered. 1 afterwards saw the 4 children at the hotel where I was liav- . Ing luncheon with Miss Marbury, nat- . ional committee-woman from New . York. Miss Marbury spoke in the highest terms of the family and their i fitness for the occupancy of tlie white : honse. "1 admire Mrs. Smith particularly I for her modesty, and for her content- | ment in tier family and her home life, j Her ambition has been satisfied in ] . her husband's success, and she is a , I I happy woman, indeed, who has that I fortune. "We shall have no apology to make f for the mistress of tlie White House ; 1 I after tlie election of Governor Alfred | f I E. Smith. ’ “Sincerely yours, “Louis K. ’ “(Mrs. Thomas R.

Neuritis is bad enough, but add stomach and kidney troubles as well, I and you can imagine what Mrs. Mary Collins, W. Opal St., Huntington, Ind., endured until she finally found • ! how to obtain complete relief. Her , ‘ letter says: “For 15 years I was in agony with such sharp pains in my arms and ’ limbs that I could hardly move them. I also had severe stomach and kidney j trouble that added to my misery. I could eat very little and even that caused gas, bloating and biliousness. My kidneys were so bad they bothered me 8 or 10 times a night, and during the day. My back and head ached terribly at times, and I was so i weak, dizzy and nervous that I was in despair. But what a difference Viuna made in me. My husband had ; obtained such great benefit from this wonder medicine that I gave it a trial. The quick results amazed me. Now I am free from neuritis and rheumatism for the first time in 15 years. I eat anything’without having gas or j stomach distress. The back-ache and kidney weakness have gone, and I j sleep fine all night. I am rid of the I dizzy, weak spells and nervousness. I feel well and strong all over, and i I’m mighty grateful to Viuna for my i recovery.” Viuna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, : tuzv liver and weak kidneys.
