Less You Wear Girls, More , ! It'll Cost, It Seems Like

High School Orchestra to Give Concert for Orphans Members of the Richmond High School orchestra, under the baton of Ralph C. Sloane, will play the third and final benefit concert for the three French war orphans, adopted by the aggregation three years ago, at 8 p. m., Feb. 16, in the High School auditorium. ( The children were pledged care for three years, and each year the or

chestra has given a concert in their!

behalf. Assisting the orchestra will be Frederick K. Hicks, violinist, and the Earlham Male Quartette.

Tablets"

Consider the low neck, above-the-elbow sleeve, and mid-knee dresses, and how they sell, and forget not the short vamp French slipper, and you may begin to wonder where they get all this high-prlce-on-clothes proposition. Surely it isn't the amount of material used? Certainly not, Clifford, we'd all be

in the insane hospital if fabrics were their present price, and dame fashion called for voluminous costumes. That's one thing fortune has favored us In -we must look skimpy. "It's a logical question: "How can you expect women to wear many clothes when .the price of cloth i3 so high?" The question Is all right, but the answer is very bad. The reason so very little dress is worn is not to keep the price down, but to give it a chance for' . higher volition. Madame Fashion says silk spring frocks must, have very short sleeves, but how would one look in above-el-bOiW sleeves and wrist length gloves? So, long gloves must be bought and paid for at the rate of $15-$18.50 per pair. Skirts Slide Up Again.

But we've only started. Skirts are going toward the knee again and that means - more silk stockings and occasionally, at least, one must have a really good looking pair of stockings with at least a $1 worth of embroidery sold for $8.50 and up on them. Ye wearers of silk stockings know how they wear. Even the naughty tricotine does better. Now the evening dress is exceeding

ly plain, except in a few places, and the foundation material must as a result, be very good. That is, anywhere from $15 to $40 or so a yard. N'o wonder there isn't much of it when it's draped ' on the human figure. Sometimes it looks, in truth, as If the wearer had taken her last $40 and stepped forth triumphantly arrayed in the one yard at $40 per. And who can protest the extreme paucity of the garment which costs that much a yard? It's bad enough to spend the summer buying a pair of Shoes! But Future's Bright Maybe! It is rumored, however, that there are to be no sleeves or shoulders in the gowns next year, so the need for gloves will doubtless be less. Now if they only don't demand kid bodices with the missing sleeves and shoulders! And It is likewise rumored that socks are coming In strong again, and maybe that'll bring down the embroidery price. Maybe! Before you know it, this will be an ideal world.

League of Women Voters To Be Discussed Here Whether Richmond women are entirely partisan, and whether there is

a desire for the formation of a non

partisan League of Women voters, will

be considered at the next meeting of

the executive board of the Richmond

Woman's Franchise league, which

Mrs. Harlow Lindley, president, will call soonl

Members of the committee were approached Wednesday regarding the Women Voters league sentiment here, tid generally said.lhat "if Richmond women want the league, a branch will be o jranlzed here." "But the question is do they want it or is the need of such an organization passed now that women have the right to be partisan?" 'said Mrs. Lindley, Wednesday. "The great difference of opinion at the Chicago convention of the National Woman's Franchise league was evidence that the question is not a cut and dried one." said she. Plans are now under way for the reorganization of the Indianapolis branch of the Woman's FranchUe league, into the new organization, and it Is presupposed that state centers

will await the initial step of the cap

ital city women. Evil thrives like a Bturdy weed, goodness like a tender flower

Stop and Think Health Depends Upon The Kidneys Increasing Death Rate Each Year

From Preventable Kidney Trouble

In our pursuit of the mighty dollar, we too often are absorpednin the topics of the day, pleasure, etc., to stop and consider our health. Stop now think kidney " diseases caused 100,000 deaths last year. Are you glng to be included in this year's toll? Why, you will exclaim, do so many die, why are the health authorities so concerned; the answer is, we bolt down our food, take no exercise, neglect our sleep and otherwise subject our system to all sorts of abuse. Is it any wonder then the kidneya become diseased and fail in their duties of poison elimination. Poisons are constantly being created in our bodies and if the kidneys fail to carry them off they are absorbed by the blood causing ill health and misery in the form of headaches, backaches, tired feeling, indigestion, etc. You may avoid considerable suffering if you heed nature's warnings and assist the kidneys. Warner's Safe

Kidney and Liver Remedy is a re

liable preparation- made from herbs and other beneficial ingredients that has been used with excellent results

for 40 years. It assists the kidneys in

their important duties, strengthens

and helps repair the wasted tissues

It Is very effective and is used in thousands of homes. Read what this grateful woman says: -"I wish to say that your remedies

have been used in our family for about fifteen years. We are never without a bottle of Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver remedy in our home, and it has saved many a doctor's bill. It Is a wonderful medicine for all diseases of the kidneys and liver." Florence E. Schmidt, R. F. D., No. 1, Dunkirk, O. Sold by leading druggists everywhere. Sample sent on receipt of ten cents.
