Dear Madam I am coins nway the lat week
In April for threw eek. Could ou tell tno
what I would neeil to bo MylMi. what to trael
In and what kind of hat would ho bent' I onlv
want to tako the ono I wear. Alrt. would I
need a neikplece? 1 hae brown ejc ml linlr.
iu;M)i:it.
Your outfit would depend very much on
your destination and on whether you are to
be extensively entertained. If you expect
to spend tho tlnio in truellng, joii would
need a rather severely tailored coat suit a
spoits suit Is very practical for the pur.
pose scoral tailored shlrtM, a silk blouse
to match your suit and pcrlmps n, dressy
blouso of ceorgetto crepe or chiffon In white
nr some pale shade. I should Imagine that
with your eyes and hair brown, green or tan
would look well, liny a seinl-tallored hat,
which will bo sultablo for wear with our
suit and for moro formal occasions. One of
black or tete do negro llscro straw, with a
few conventional llowers or a feather fancy
ns trimming, would do ery well. If you
expect to attend any formal nlTalr.n while
away you will need nn, evening frock. If
you possess a black ono you are fortunate,
for It will fit In nicely for almost eery oc
casion. If you do not expect any evening
entertainments, but will attend a few In
formal dinners, tens or bridges you will
need a frock of silk or georgette crepo in
some dark shado; navy blue is always good.
A top coat Is also Indispensable, If you
feel you cannot afford both a suit and a
topcoat, dlsponso with tho former. Top
coats are nt present In high favor and can
be worn while traveling with a dark serge
one-pleco dress. A neckpiece is not a ne
cessity. Gift for Bride
To the KJItor o iroman'a Pane:
Dear Madam What would bo nice to tend in
a wjddlne Bin to . brldo who Uvea In a distant
ElKI .Jifci""0 .n,.ver . "? " ' ani- therefore,
know nolhlnt of her tastea, MANY I,.
If you will go Into any of the shops which
specialize In these things you will prob
ably get a suggestion. I would not advise
you to send separate, pieces of flat silver,
cream and sugar Jugs or water bottles, for
Instance, as most brides recelvo so many
duplicates of this kind; then again, they
frequently want their flat silver to be all
of one pattern. Your present, too, should
depend on the position the young couple
will occupy In the world. Lamps, book-ends,
canuiesiicKS, uecoratlve mirrors, noveltles-
in silverware, tnese nil make suitable' gifts.
To Have Ears Pierced
To the Jldttor of U'omcm's Page:
Dear Madam-I want a pair of diamond ear
rings very much, but my huaband will not irlve
them lo me unleia I have my earn pierced. He
eaya that the plerceleea klnll look cheap and
ahnddy ana that I am apt to loao them. Shall
I have my far pleroed? How shall J ko about
ItT 1'leaao advise, me. BltlDU.
Very" few women have their ears pierced
these days. At one time the nlerclmr ennhi
be done at almost any Jeweler's, but tliU is
no longer the case, several ,of the leading
Jewelers In town having told me they had
discontinued performing the operation. The
flew earrings, made with patent clasps, hold
firmly to the lobe Of the ear and there ar
many beautiful designs In these. I doubt
very much whether you would have a really
good selection from which to choose of the
old-fashioned kind.

gunrd Jealously the other twelve. Actually
for tho first time In my llfo I begin to

the blood and anguish In which I move. I
really nm useful, that Is nil, and too busy
to remember myself, past, present or fu

-rather big barracks, six of them, In

which don't seem to dare to como tie.tr-

I have tho operating ward, nnd have ns
slsted the surgeon nt twenty-two case,s In

Ho arrived yesterday with his ten ia-.es

and ho rlnlui.s, with his system, to avoid

(It must bo within twelve bonis), Tuftlcr
begins his work, extracts tlio debris, Intro
duces drains (rubber tubes), several In inch

Is pumped n dark liquid "IJ.il.lii." the
Idea being, as you see, to keep the wound
In a constant bath of antiseptic Once
the drains are placed, lhy aro arranged
In such a way tb.it the liquid cannot run
out. Tho limb Is enveloped In non-nbsorb-ent
cotton, perforated' so as to allow the
lubber tubes to project well, and the whole
Ih llxed with a bandage. .So there ou havo
our bnnd.iged limb nil bristling with tubes,
nnd Into those every two hours Is pumped
the liquid. Thero Is something sublime nnd

Harelip
What Is tho cause of harelip? A. n. J.
Harelip Is a congenital defect, due to In
complete development. Consult a good sur
gcon. Blood Pressure
.n2n-5a.n yoi ,lrur b reduced without
resorting- to druta? c. XV. II.
High blood press-ire can bo reduced by
removal of the cause, tho only safe nnd
proper method. Pressure-reducing drugs
are dangerous. They reduce tho pressure
by weakening the heart nnd thus tend to
produce tho condition known as Hocnndirv
low pressure, which Is much more danger
ous than high pressure.
Ono of tho most common causes of high
blood pressure Is the uso of tea and coffee
Caffeine, the nctlvJ principle In coffee and
tea, Is a pressure-raising drug. It Is used
by physicians In cases of shock when It Is
necessary to raise the pressure. A dose Is
two grains. A single cup of coffee contains,
nccordlng to Doctor "Wiley, four grains, or
two doses. Is It nny wonder that coffee
drlnktrs havo high blood pressure? Smok
Ing raises the blood pressure. A slnglo
cigar, according to Doctor Janeway, of
Johns Hopkins University, will raise the
blood pressure twenty points In thirty min
utes, livery smoker who does not get killed
by nccldent will die sooner or later of high
blood pressure, apoplexy or heart failure.
The free use of flesh foods raises the blood
pressure because of the uric acid which the
meat contains. livery pound of meat, ac
cording to Doctor Hall, of Manchester,
England, contains fourteen grains of urlo
acid nnd sweetbreads contain ten grains

PATSY KILDAREOUTLAW
By JUDD MORTIMER LEyIS
TT WAS cloudy when I got P tl'l morn
ling and my father had been asleep quite
a while nnd the pancakes ho had fried had
grown cold, but I ate them Just tho samo
and put tho dishes In tho sink for him to
wash whence pot up. Then I thought wo
had better ramble toward tho swimming
place, and we did. Dut wo camo to tho
Carpenters, and there was Wilbur slttlnir
on tho horseblock, nnd I went and sat by
him. and the very first thine ho did was
hunch over, and I found myself slttlnc In
the Butter.
Then I was mad nnd full of cry and
Itovvdy was trrowly and only Mlta or
mo to say "Go to ltP to eat Wilbur Car
penter alive, nut I didn't, for I I now a
better trick than that. I'll sjak to God
about It. . .,, -
I went on, and at Miss Jones MIm Jones
was out cutting somo roses nnd had a lont
apron on, and her AnRora cat was ruoUltiB
aR.ilnst her lees and tho next mlnuto tho
AiiBora cat was In a treo In tho hack yard,
and ltoivdy was slttlns tinder tho tree won
derlns how caw can climb trrei and dogs
can't and Miss Jones was hollering Mom
ma' Momma! Momma 1" as hard as Mio
could So I went back and told llowdy Ho
must never disturb Miss Jones' Angora, and
then he camo out of the yard with me, and
Miss Jones railed mo a littles savage, ami
taid sho hhould think my mother would
turn over In her Bravo, and that I needed
a Bood spanking That being nbout all sho
could think or sue torn mo mai "
ever fiot her Angora sho would have him
shot, but sho won't need to, for If Itowdy
ever does get him there won't bo enough
left to shoot.
So wo i ambled, and I thought of tho lady
whero they havo tho pink nightie and had
.. l.ilrwl In rrn fllr 1 1 1 1 f ! Went tO tllO
hvvlmmluir place Instead, for If I do not
wash my faco and hands every two or threo
days I feel dirty. The river was very mud
dy and reached nway up tho side, almost
to whnro Wilbur nnd his gang used to leave
their clothes, and I went right In nnd 1 had
no sooner got In than tlio water pushed me
off my feet and was over my head. Fqr a
mlnuto I thought that my mother had come
for me, nnd then I held my breath and
paddled, and the water carried mo near
tho hank nnd I grabbed a bush and pulled
myself out. No mom swimming for me
when tho water Is high If I don't wash for
n week.
I lay down on the bank for a long tlmo,
and then I went nnd snt on tho grass by tho
fenco nnd mado a rlover chain, until I was
dry. Tho river has almost got mo afraid
of It, It is m big and careless. It could
drown a llttlo girl nnd go right on nbout
Its business. All little girls but mo had

about me. It Is raining now. 1 wish you
would tell God that I'm getting kind of
tired of writing for a baby sister. Don't

God would land on Wilbur good and plenty,
for that kid Is too mean to live. God bless
my father nnd you nnd euro Ilovrdy of
fleas. Amen."
