Constipation Gone.
Has Roses in Her
Cheeks Now
“About seven years ago, Y was dy-
ing slowly of constipation. My sys-
tem was full of poison, which not
only dulled my senses, but my com-
plexion was muddy, eyes blurred, my
stomach ‘was ruined, and I was con-
tinually catching cold. I did not have
any life or energy.
“After reading one of your ads; I
bought several bottles of Milks Emul-
sion, and began improving at once.
Improvement was so marked that ev-
eryone noticed It, and spoke of how
it cleared my skin, made my eyes
much brighter, and put roses in my
cheeks, In fact, I was an entirely dif-
ferent person. I took altogether 15
large bottles of Milks Emulsion, and
looked wonderful and felt the same
way. It absolutely made me over. It
adds more to your looks than any-
thing I have ever heard of. After I
had taken the first 8 bottles, people
began to notice the improvement in
my skin and my eyes belng brighter.
“Every woman should know of it. I
have never had a cold since I took
Milks Emulsion, no stomach trouble
or constipation. I think it Is a God-
send to humanity.
“A nephew of mine was almost
dead of stomach trouble. I started
him on Milks Emulsion and while he
has only taken 4 bottles, he can eat
nearly anything, and is beginning to
feel fine,

Those words had been cited to her
with each girlish hope she had ever
had defeated. To Rob nothing could
be better than going to Jen's party
that she was giving for her wealthy
cousin, Jerry Hodges.
When she passed Jen's house they
were stringing Japanese lanterns
across the lawn. Rob was fairly
tingling with anticipation when whe
found that something was wrong with
one of the tires, Rob had never been
intimately acquainted with automo-
biles. Their car was a very recent
addition to the family's few posses-
slons. The Dicksons Mad lived In an
apartment untill last year, when im-
mediately after Rob's graduation they
had come to live on a farm for the
sake of Fanny's health,
Rob was very near to bursting Into
tears when a car appeared over the
hill. It was a long car, glistening In
the summer sun—yellow as a canary.
Rob gulped against her tears and sig-
aaled it frantically. But, like a startled
bird, It shot by. All that Rob received
was a cold, Indifferent stare from Its
lone occupant.
“Nothing,” she affirmed dramatically
to a red robin on a bush across the
fence, “passes me by in life but to
give place to something better!”
Another car was coming down the

He looked at his watch, “You've got

Rob flushed. She had not known

“It's just a party one of my nelgh-

But that ‘perhaps’—what kind of a
fellow 1s he?”
Rob giggled. “If you've got to know,
he is Jen's cousin who's coming from
Fort Slater today!”
The young man took the extra off
the rack, placing the old one on in its
stead. His face was hot and the per-
spiration dripped from his brows,
“Oh, 1 hate for you to do this!”
cried Rob. “Can't 1 help?”
“You are helping. Nothing warms a
man's heart—or cools it—like the lt.

the
Community in Sicily
Unchanged by Time
Siclly for ages has been the meeting
place and battleground of the races
that contributed to civilize the West,
It was on this island that the Greeks
measured thelr strength against Phoe-
nicia., Here Carthage fought her first
duel against Rome. The ancients are
gone, even their descendants are no
more—except one colony which still
survives,
Remotely situated on a high plain,
isolated in the mountains, is a little
Albanian community which has pre.
served Its earliest traditions. Rarely
marrying outside thelr own settle-
ment, these people have maintained
their racial characteristics and are
pure-blooded descendants of the an-
clent Greeks. Plano del Grecel, as the
little town is called, may be reached
by motor car from Palermo. The dis
tance Is not great, but the road Is
very bad and at times the ascent Is
steep.
Surrounded by Islanders, all of
whom are Siglilans, speaking the lan-
guage of Italy and In religion Roman
Catholics, these people have their own
language, which closely resembles the
ancient Greek, and In religion cling to
the Greek Orthodox church. They are
a proud, falrskinned people, many
with blond hair and blue eyes. I have
seen among them some of the prettiest
children I have observed anywhere In
Italy.
On fete days the women don a curl
ous garb, wearing brightly colored
gowns. The belts, which constitute
the most conspicuous part of their at-
tire, are heirlooms of solid gold or sil-
ver and represent the dowry which
goes with an unmarried girl and is
cherished during her married life as
one of hér dearest possessions, The
gowns, alro worn as wedding dresses,
are made of costly silks, beautifully
embroidered. Adorned with antique
Jewelry, they represent small fortunes
and are handed down from one gen-
eration to another.~From “Seeing

Collegiate Sports Duds
Demand Much Attention
Sports clothes are undoubtedly the
backbone of the modern college wom-
an's wardrobe, Yet even this Is no
simple¢ undertaking for the Tather of
the college woman. Not when you
consider that the candidate for B. 8
or B. A. must have this type of cos-
tume for two seasons and for a va-
riety of sports, both passive and ac-
tive.
Hockey, teanls, golf, gymnasium,
swimming, often horseback riding-—all
these present separate sartorial neces.
gitles. Only occasionally are costumes
for active sports Interchangeable. And
when one takes into consideration the
need for football and motoring togs,
it will be noted by esen a bachelor
that the collegiate sports wardrobe is
an impressive item by itself.
And the sports wardrobe must be
supplemented by many other types
of clothes, Two or three dance
frocks and one evening wrap are the
least one cgn do for a young woman
whose holidays are compounded of
“proms” and whose frequent week-
end visits are bound to Involve a
dance. The afternoon receptions of
the faculty and the same week-end
visits Impose an equal necessity for
one or two “dress up” daytime frocks.
And these latter, frequently donned
for the dinner In college halls, are
completed by a third genre of cos
tume--that which Is donned for the
