No wonder millions take it for colds, neuralgia, rheumatism; and the aches and pains that go with them. The wonder is that anyone still worries through a winter without these tablets! They relieve quickly, yet have no effect whatever on the heart. Friends have told you Bayer Aspirin is marvelous; doctors have declared it harmless. Every druggist has it, with proven directions.

FURRED GOWNS OFTEN SEEN

Miss Ottley Schreiber

BY BETSY SCHUYLER NEA Service Writer NEW YORK, Jan. 29.—Charity does not begin at home, these days, but in some of the city’s swanky hotels. For the social calendar is filled with all manner of benefits that social registrites are staging for less fortunates. Debs are dividing their-time between greeting guests at their own functions and dashing off to these charity benefits to sell everything from Paris gowns to modernistic match boxes. Also they are staging magnificent plays, recitals and other entertainments. Marjorie Koster, a charming model at a charity benefit fashion show, demonstrated the rivalry there is now between silk and fur for costumes. For she wore a stunning fur frock, believe it or not, of black galyack, fashioned with a little front godet and long, trim sleeves. For further novelty, the black Lido cloth coat has little fur polka dots all up and down the sleeves and across a cute back yoke. Fur ia having a rage as fabric for all sorts of things, from shoes to hats right now. Mrs. Orson Munn wears a very smart little kerchief and muff set of blonde broadtail. Peggy Gould has a tan coat with a separate stock collar of matching fur. Mrs. Harry C. Cushing 111 has a fiat bow of lapin on the lapel of her cashmere-lined sports coat. Ottley Schreiber has a natural lynx collar on a black velvet suit that points its head down tlje back to give a fur yoke effect. Leather jackets now match one’s car. I noted with interest Mrs. Elliott Holt in a smart blue leather jacket stepping into her car of precisely the same shade. Satin, brocaded, velvet and kid slippers for dancing feet are now steeped in the color of the gown they complement. Lady Heath, the famous aviatrix, dancing at the Embassy Club, wore ruby red pumps with her chic red moire gown. Francine Larrimore wore honey yellow

crepe de chine slippers with a yellow chiffon evening gown, that had a little bolero of dyed lace and sparkling crystals. Crystals cut their sparkling way into the plan of many evening things now. Marion F. Wickes wore a stunning pale pink gown to the opera the other evening that had crystals outlining in looped fringes the tiny pink chiffon bodice of the gown. m * Initiation Held by Girl Reserves of Beech Grove Initiation of ten new members and installation of new officers for the ensuing year was held Monday evening by the Girl Reserves of Beech Grove high school.

Love , Once Lost, Rarely Conies Back BY MARTHA LEE There is nothing quite as hopeless as • yarmed-over fried eggs, unless it is warmed-over love affairs. On thinking it over, I am of the opinion that warmed-over eggs would be much preferable. It is almost an impossibility to re-heat the ardor, the spontaniety, the freshness of love that has, for one reason or another, ceased to be love. Love is primarily a feeling over which folk have little control. It comes, and makes itself known. It goes, and there is a vacancy where it once has been. But one can not go out and drag it back, fighting and kicking, and expect it to be the thing that it was when it cam§ of its own accord. The most delightful thing about love is the lack of effort on the part of those who have it, to keep it. Usually when drastic measures are brought in to keep it in its corner, it gets high-handed and walks out. A period of time passes. The need for something to fill the emptiness left by that love, grows. Instead of accepting something else almost equally desirable, companionship, for instance, there is a concentrated drive to bring back love. It is better to become resigned to the fact that love will not be pursued, which sums up that old saying about “he also serves who only stands and waits.” This letter is from a woman who lost love: Dear Miss Lee—l am 26 years old. 'Aro years ego I was one of the happiest girls alive. X was engaged to marry one of the most wonderful boys in the world. We were to have been married two years ago this summer. I was very mueh in love, and had been under the impression that he was also. I had my hope chest filled with linens for our home. I had practically completed buying my trousseau. All the plans were made. And something happened that all thes"? things were crone. Through an action on the part of my fiance, which 1 considered a sign of a tendency toward unfaithfulness, I broke the engagement. I did not want to, but my mother influenced me into believing that would be best. I have never been convinced that this action was unforgiveable. Because X refused to take his word in the face of circumstances; he said it would be best as it turned outj because there were too many times, too many circumstances in married life when faith in each other was an absolute essential, which 1 believe. But the point is, X believe he lost all his love for me. during those few minutes that we exchanged the words that ended in our broken engagement. Now I realize that I was wrong; that no matter what the circumstances were, I was entirely in the wrong not to believe him. I want him back. What can I do about it? MARY JANE. Go out and find yayrself another man. I guess, Mary Jane. It would be almost impossible, under the circumstances, to marry this boy. Both of you would think of the plans you had made, the ardor of your love for each other in those first days of your engagement. Then he would remember, with bitterness, I am afiraid, of your lack of faith in him. That would rankle like an open sore. Os course, it is your move. You should see him, explain to him the circumstances at the time you broke up and ask him forgiveness. But if this unwomanly gesture of yours, two years ago, has killed his love for you, do not hope to successfully rekindle it. Resign yourself to the result of your own mistake and promise yourself never again to fail so miserably. PAST PRESIDENTS MEET FOR DINNER Members of the Past Presidents’ Club of the Harold C. Megrew auxiliary 3, United Spanish War Veterans, were entertained with a dinner Sunday evening at the home of Mrs. Thomas Clapp, 2433 North Delaware street. Mrs. Henry C.

Babies Gome Back Into Popularity BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Mrs. Margaret Sanger, for many years an authority on birth statistics in America, says that she does not fear that the so-called upper classes will fail to reproduce. She is right, because the day will never come when the normal husband and wife will not desire children. There may be temporary waves of aridness in the nation and women may talk about their freedom and all that, but the truth is that children are our greatest pleasure and the source of most of our ambition. Without them, men ana women are but half creatures. The women of the middle and upper classes are today having more babies than their kind did ten years ago. There was a period immediately following the war when they appeared to lose much of their interest in children, but now wherever one goes there is a reawakened interest in family life. Babies are coming back into fashion. A certain class of folk, the sophisticates, who find the world a horrid place and life a boresome matter, may prate about the futility of reproducing ones kind. And prate they do, continually. But from all appearances few listen to them. The world has always had its growlers but civilization is carried forward by the common, everyday citizen who keeps his head and does his duty. The normal, well balanced man and woman want those age-old things without which man has never been and never will be happy—a hearth fire about which babies play. And children are being given the warmest sort of welcome in American homes. True, their numbers are not so great as in the Victorian age, but fathers and mothers usually desire as many as they can comfortably support and educate. And the better persons of the moneyed classes are having larger families. Our laws on birth control are hopelessly old-fashioned and they suffer from the result of our national habit of sticking our head in the sand when some important problem presents itse'f. All save the very poorest element of society now practice birth control, as everybody knows. Mrs. Sanger hopes that the laws may be changed so that this class can be helped. I think perhaps she is too optimistic. I doubt whether they would profit from such education any more than they seem to have profited from various other kinds. Meeting of Sorority Alpha, chapter. Omega Nu Tau sorority, will hold a meeting at the Spink-Arms hotel at 7:30 p. m. Wednesday. All members are urged to be present.
