Save The Peach
At last the humble peach stone has been exalted to
play a prominent part in this war. For ages it has
helped to fill up about one-third of the basket, only to be
thrown away again as useless. Now the peach stone
saves the lives of our soldier boys in trenches.
About two hundred peach stones will provide enough
carbon for a Gas Mask. Uncle Sam is using about three
hundred tons a day, and wants yours, no matter how few.
Dry and save them for the Red Cross. Also plum
stones, apricot pits, date seeds, hickory nut, walnut, but
ternut and cocoanut shells. Instructions will be pub
lished as to their disposal. Peach pit depositories will
be arranged in every neighborhood to prevent their
waste.

Modart Corsets Are
Poise-Designed
ft Poise is the art of holding one's self
i correctly. It is the object of the "set
ting up" exercises of all armies, result
ing in the military carriage so uni
versally admired.
Poise means free breathing, better
health, greater strength and less fa
tigue. Modart front-laced corsets are
poised-designed. The correct poise
they give tjie figure at the time they
are fitted is maintained by the use of
) the lightest clock spring boning which
yields, yet restrains which does
not become "set"—that is, it does not
stay permanently bent.
Modart front-laced corsets are su
premely comfortable.
We ask you to accept a free trial fit
ting of the Modart model that has been
poise-designed for your figure.
Prices ranging from $4.50 to $lO.
