MAKE THIS SKIRT I
IN EITHER STYLE
Pattern Shows Two Ways of
Completing a Circular
Yoke Design
By MAY MANTON
9109 (With Basting Line and Added
Seam Allowance) Box Plaited Skirt,
34 to 32 waist.
This is a skirt that is exceedingly
simple and easy to handle and it can be
made to give two entirely different re
sults. It consists of a cirular voke and
straight lower portion, but tfiis lower
portion may be either box plaited or
gathered. The box plaited skirt is ap
propriate for silk, for linen, for cotton
gabardine and for all materials of such
sort. The gathered skirt can be used
for flouncing or for em bordered material
or any thin material with a plain edge
that 1a trimmed appropriately. Taffeta
could be made in botn styles with success.
There is a plain yoke and over it is a yoke
that is laid in folds or plaits.
For the medium size will be needed,
6% yards of material 37 inches wide,
5'4 yards 36 or 4 yards 44. or 3 yards of !
flouncing 36 inches wide and % of a yard !
of material 36 inches wide for the yoke. 1
The pattern No. 9109 is cut in sizes
from 24 to 32 inches waist measure. It
will be mailed to any address by the
Fashion Department of this paper, on
receipt of ten cents.

Here is proof and nurse's letter
" For ten years in my work as a nurse
I have depended upon Sykes' Comfort
Powder with excellent results to soothe
and heal skin soreness. I was recently
called to a case of an old man, 84 years
of age, who had been confined to his
bed for months, and his body was simply
covered with terrible sores. I immedi
ately commenced to use Svkes' Comfort
Powder as thick as I could sift it on and
you ought to have seen the change that
took place within twenty four hours,
and the sores were soon healed."—Mrs.

1907, except in 1911, took a downward
trend during 1915. A report by the
Bureau of Labor, issued to-day, ana
lyzing retail prices of 29 articles of
food, shows that relative retail prices
duriilg 1915 averaged 1 per cent, lower
than in 1914.
Meats, lard and eggs averaged from
1 to 9 per cent, lower, while potatoes
were 22 per cent, lower. Wheat flour,
corn meal and granulated sugar were
higher than in 1914, flour being 20 per
cent, and sugar 11 per cent.
WATCHING STATE
MILK SUPPLY NOW
Dairy and Food Agents Are
Busy Checking Up With the
Chemists on Samples
Vigorous steps for protection of the
State's milk and cream and ice cream j
supply during the summer months are ;
being taken by men of the Dairy and ;
Food Bureau of the Department of
Agriculture and the chemists and
agents have been unusually active!
during the past few weeks. The result
of the work is shown by over $6,000 in ;
fines being turned in to the depart- j
ment during the past ten days.
The efforts to violate the pure food j
laws are numerous, but the Depart
ment of Agriculture watches espec
ially cases where water is added to
milk, butter fat is removed, milk is i
skimmed or preservatives are used. |
The milk and cream must be kept up
jto a State standard and as it is. in
many cases, the only food that babies
! feed upon in the summer, extra ef
forts are made to see that the supply
furnished the consumers of the State '
is kept pure and up to the standard.
Ice cream and soft drinks are also
carefully watched, at this time of year
for artificial coloring and flavoring and
for sweetening with saccharin. Many
prosecutions for the sale of soft
drinks, either dispensed at soda foun
tains or in bottles have been made
when they were found to contain no
fruit juice from which they were
named.
The Food Bureau is also active in i
watching the sale of dirty candy and
food products from open stands. In
Philadelphia some trouble has been \
experienced through the sale of goat
meat as mutton and a number of
prosecutions have been made.
ATTEMPT TO WRECK TROLLEY
Special to the Telegraph
Lewistown. Pa., July 13.—An at- 1
; tempt to wreck a trolley car of the
Lewistown an l Reedsville Railway was
made when an obstruction was placed i
; on the track on Stratford's hill, north ;
of town, on Tuesday night. One of |
the big steel cars struck a heavy piece j
jof timber laid across the tracks. The j
| log was placed at a point where there
: is a steep incline In such a position
j that It was unobserved by the motor
| man. President J. I. Qulckley, of the
i traction company, tra.a oil the car at
! the time and has offered a reward of
SIOO for the apprehension of the guilty
persons.
ENTERTAINS AT BRIDGE
Special to the Telegraph
Mechanicsburg, Pa., July 13. Mrs !
Murray L. Dick entertained at bridge t
yesterday morning at her home in
West Main street. Sixteen guests were
present from Boston, Mass.; Middle
town, Hummelstown, Carlisle and
Mechanicsburg. Mrs. J. Elder Wil
liams, of Carlisle, won first prize.
Luncheon was served.
Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo
If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
' wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
j contain too much alkali. This dries the
j scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
j very harmful. Just plain mulslfied
cocoanut oil, (which Is pure and en
tirely greaselessT, 1« much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, aa
this can't possibly Injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
j ter and rub It in. One or two tea
; spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
| hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
I rinses out easily and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex
j costive oil. The hair dries quickly
' and evenly, and It leaves It fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulslfied coooanut oil
at moat any drug store. It. la very
cheap, and a few ounces la enough to
last everyone In the family for
-mo nths,-—Ad v er tlsem ent.
