FEMININE SILHOUETTE ENHANCED BY HIGH WAISTLINE
Flowing Line Effect Given by Fash ions BY JEAN PATCH Written for SEA S^rvir* PARIS. Feb. 13 One of the most remarkable features of this season’s fashions is that they wm to have fcrown upon us almost imperceptibly, although really presenting some very brusque changes. What is more, they have been accepted unreservedly by the majority of women. Take the fact of the normal waistline. It must be generally recognized that it has been strugling for supremacy for some time. I am pleased to know that I was among the first to attempt this change, but always with the knowledge that it had to be achieved very gradually. Although the change was but a question of a few inches every season it proved a very difficult task to get women to relinquish their old styles. Low Waist Abandoned Sports clothes, on the other hand, have long since abandoned the ridiculous low waist. A more determined regard for anatomical lines prevails in the creation of clothes destined for sport or. if you prefer, flies 3 clothes show signs of logic as v.eii as variety. Women were accustomed so long to the low waistline that now it is almost a novelty to see it returned to its proper place. In reality, this attitude has proved a boon to dress creators as opening up nearly as vast a vista as a really new feature. The natural waistline also contrives completely to change preconceived ideas of line. It is a theme that has not been exploited for a long time. Hark in Proper Place To any couturier, it was obvious that with the lengthening of 'he skirts the waist would resume its proper place. It but serves to enhance the object in view, that of importing long and flowing lines to the feminine silhouette. A rather short bust -that is to say. a normal bust—only accentuates the idea of length given by the longer skirt. This new fashion feature may cause a slight upheaval In another industry, that of corset making. I found myself faced with the fact that my mannequins would have to wear special girdles to display my new creations to the best advantage. Against Corset Return Those adopted by women hitherto proving totally inadequate, I mention this merely to refute the statement I am supposed to have made that they would be compelled to return to the stiff, boned corset of yesterday. What I did say was that the welldressed woman would need a more substantial support than the present narrow girdle, but I would be the last to advise the return to the quasimedieval torture of the corset, and what is morp. the idea would never be tolerated by the clothesfree woman of today.

This Man PuzzledLost 19 Pounds of Fat
Want* to Know Where the Fat Went To Start taking Kruschen Salts—that's the common-sense way to reduce —but don't take them with the Idea that they possess reducing qualities in themselves. This is what they do—they clean out the impurities in your blood by keeping the bowels, kidneys and liver in splendid worling shape and fill you with a vigor and tireless energy you’d most forgotten had existed. This man was fat—sixty pounds overweight—wanted to stay home every night and nurse the old arm chair— getting in and out of his auto was all the exercise he cared for—his desire for any form of activity had died years ago. Then one night as he read the evening paper cheering news broke for him—he read the story of Kruschen Salt*—what it was doing for the fat folks of America—they were losing fat —and plenty of it. The next morning he started—one generous half-teaspoon of Kruschen in a glass of hot water before breakfast—every morning the same —in a week he wanted to walk to business—he didn’t know why—but urge lor activity seemed to flood

his whole being and he followed the urge. His wife was astonished—delighted—and when one evening ne said with eagerness—“ Let's go to a show tonight, dear,” —her joy was unbounded. That virile Kruschen feeling that means more energy—more vigor—more ambition, took possession of him—he took long walks every day —and enjoyed them. He got on the scales one evening and came home with sprightly step —“eleven pounds of fat gone.’’ he almost hollered—he danced a few steps with the activeness of youth—and his wife danced with him. Soon nineteen pounds of impeded and unwanted fat had left him and he marveled—and' his friends marveled with him. “Where did it all go to?” he asked, and no one could answer. Kruschen Salts drives poisonous waste from the system—it acts on liver, kidneys and stomach and keeps them in tip-top condition—it keeps you feeling fit and fine all the time. Hook's Dependable Drug Stares and leading druggists America over sell Krwschen Salts for 85 cents a bottle, much last four weeks.—Advertisemdllt.

Judge Allen Refreshing Modernist BY JOSEPHINE HAMMOND Judge Florence E. Allen, the only woman member of a supreme court is a fascinating enigma. She is a person of many contrasts. She is a modernist, leavened by a refreshing Victorian attitude. She has usurped a place in the world held since the beginning of law and order, by men, and men only. If that isn’t modern, I don’t know what is. Feminine freedom and recognition of feminine achievement is as modern as the day after tomorrow. And yet. on the other hand, she is old-fashioned enough to believe that the solution to the crime problem lies in the education of children, through the schools, churches and homes. Believes in Example Moderns, the real moderns, do not attend church regularly enough to be touched by the philosophy taught there. And the home unit, such as Miss Allen refers to, is almost extinct. That leaves the schools. She is old fashioned enough to be extremely scrupulous in all matters. She believes that the solution to the crime waves lies, first of all, in j the education of children by example. She has an utter contempt for the teachings that the satisfying of material whims Is the business of life. She comprehends what few men and women understand, that children do not follow so quickly what they are taught by word of mouth, as what they see. If they hear their parents prate about law and order, how every rule must be obeyed, and then see them turn around and mix a cocktail, they will follow .he example of what they have seen, not what they hear. Judge Allen is modern enough to believe in changes and improvements. She does not believe in the abolition of an institution when it fails to function as it has been expected to function. She believes in improving it. Among the other contrasts that are interesting is her closely cropped brown hair, wavy and feminine from the front view and positively mannish from a side or back view. She has an intelligence, a way of talking and walking, a talent for getting at the basis of things that is masculine, and yet her heart and j soul, her understanding, is entirely feminine. Truly Womanly
One knows she must have sur- | mounted innumerable barriers to : reach the heights she has. Men are | not friendly toward women who ' prove themselves capable of han- ; dling successfully their most cherished positions. And yet she was, in succession, assistant prosecutor and judge of the court of common pleas, before her election to the supreme court bench of Ohio. She will say only that the men have lent her the support at election time necessary' for her to obtain the office. She wore a black lace dress, feminine and modem, with a pair of j heavy silk stockings and flat-heeled slippers. She carried her corsage, presented to her by the Indiana League of Women Voters, at whose luncheon she spoke Wednesday, back to Columbus, 0., in the cardboard box, carefully covered from the cold, perhaps because she is too human, too truly womanly to adorn herself at the cost of having her lovely bouquet wither.
Has Valentine Party Woman’s auxiliary, McKinley Club, entertained with a valentine party Wednesday afternoon at the club room. Mrs. Harry Heyman, president, and Mrs. Mayme Armstrong, past president of the Parent Teacher Association, School 14, were in charge of the entertainment.

Prize Winner
“Betty was delicate and fretful,” says Mrs. H. G. Shawver, 719 N. Grant St., Indianapolis. “She was sallow and bilious, didn’t have any appetite; couldn't digest her food. "California Fig Syrup has changed all that. It regulated her bowels quickly; improved her appetite and digestion. She has improved right along until friends say she’s a regular prize-winner for health.” Mothers by thousands praise California Fig Syrup. Physicians endorse it. Its rich, fruity flavor appeals to children; its pure vegetable goodness is safe for any child. The prompt relief it brings bilious, headachy. constipated children lasts; because it helps tone and strengthen bowels and stomach. Next time bad breath, coated tongue’ or feverishness warn of constipation, try it with your child and see how it helps! When buying, look for the name California! That marks the genuine. famous for 50 years.—Advertisement.
