Skylarkers Make Large Sum
to Feed City Babies; Many
Arc Taken Care Of
So they all went skylarking! And
what a wonderful time they had!
They followed the trail of the blue
and gold arrows, straight to the
transformed bower of blue and gold
at Willa-Villa. And there, in the
glass-enclosed pavilion, they danced
and frolicked to their heart's con
tent.
And what an ideal place it was in
which to "skylark." Masses of
spring flowers greeted the eye on ev
ery side. Morning glory vines clung
to trellises of green, their varicol
ored flowers forming a riot of color:
apple blossoms, intermingled with
branches of flr, concealed the pillars
and wreathed the windows: while '
clumps of yellow and purple iris,
placed at various points throughout
the room, fairly cried out for the
approval of the guests.
The most novel feature of all was
the suspension of large, flower-cov- I
ered hoops from the beamed ceil
ing. Hidden motors kept them
whirling and as they turned the
slender frames bent and swayed,
changing contour with each revolu
tion. On close examination a start
ling discovery was made. The large
flowers of blue and gold, from
which tiny bells were suspended on
slender ribbons of red. were not
flowers at all. On the contrary they
were nothing more or less than
camouflaged straw hats. Just plain,
ordinary straw hats such as every
country lad and lassie wears when
"a-haying they would go," the brims
cleverly hidden beneath petals of
crepe paper, while tho inverted, un
covered crowns made realistic flow
er hearts. Albert Kelsey. a Phila
delphia architect, planned the dec
orative scheme, carried out by Mrs.
William E. Wright and Mrs. Francis
J. Hall and assistants.
In the afternoon the kiddies reign
ed supreme. Stunts and then more
stunts were participated in. includ
ing exciting pony rides, thrilling
slides down slippery inclines and
other amusements so dear to the
hearts of all children. The commit
tee in charge comprised Mrs. Horace
Witman, Mrs. Martin Gum bier. Mrs.
John E. Fox. Mrs. John C. Jessup,

Mrs. Howard Bingaman.
Between 6.30 and 8 o'clock din

The Sourbeer orenestra suddenly
appeared upon the scene, each
member wearing a highly becoming
cap of blue and gold. Then follow

the first chord been struck before

guests and the dance was on. Alter

music of an English song, "Come

Tender, Bleeding Gums Are Warn
ing Signal* of Dangerou* Itlgga
Disease. How to Treat at Home
Don't lose your teeth from Pyor
rhoea or lliggs Disease. It's unneces
sary now. There is no reason why
everybody cannot have good firm
teeth and healthy gums and be free of
the humiliation of sore, dis.eased gums
and unsightly, decaying teeth.
You needn't have your teeth pulled
or wear false ones. Simply go to H. C.
Kennedy. Geo. A. Gorgas or any live
local druggist and ask for one ounce
of Kpithol—remember the name,
K-P-I-T-H-O-E, and use it as direct
ed.
This is the prescription of a famous
New York dentist and it seems to
work like magic on loose teenth and
sore. Tender. inflamed, receding,
shrunken, spongy, bleeding or pus
discharging gums. Teeth tighten and
the gums grow sound and healthy and
the bleeding pus discharge soon stops.
Both dentists and users are amazed
at the wonderful improvement it
brings so quickly.
All the druggists named above dis
pense Epithol on the positive guaran
tee that unless it gives satisfactory
results the money paid for it will be
refunded. This makes its trial a safe
and easy matter and certainly proves
its value.
FULL-PACE COLORED MAP OF NEW FRANCE, BELGIUM, LUXEMBURG-*®
in this week's "Digest." This splendid map shows added territories awarded
by the Peace Treaty—Alsace-Lorraine, Rhenish-Prussia, the Sarre Basin, etc.
Does the Treaty Violate
President s Fourteen Points?
The latest and bitterest blow to German hopes, successively disappointed in the Zeppelins,
the submarines and the Kaiser, is the discovery that President Wilson and the American people
have not secured for Germany a ''soft peace." German leaders and German papers angrily pro
test that America has "betrayed" the German people. President Ebert declares that in the Peace
Treaty President Wilson "has deserted his fourteen points," while Lundendorff declares after
reading the terms that "if this is peace, America can go to hell!"
In the leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST this week, May 24th, German and
American public opinion, as represented by the statements in the leading journals of both coun
tries, is presented. Each of the fourteen points is carefully analyzed in its relation to the terms
of the Peace Treaty so that the reader may readily understand just how much justification there
is in Germany's protestations.

DEAR FOLKS:
A GROUP of men and
women sat at a round
table in a private
home recently. All of the
'guests commented on the
'splendid meal which the
hostess served. It was a
I very simple meal, but it wag
[splendidly cooked and beam
jtifuliy served. The table
I linen, the dishes, the floral
piece in the center of the
table—everything harmon*
ized.
The meal started with %
delicious tomato broth.
Then each guest was served
with pieces of steak at least
two and a half inches thick
and cooked just right,
Baked potatoes, done to a
"turn" were served with the
steak. Hot biscuits, made
by the hostess herself,
were also served. There
were ripe olives, tomatq
ketchup, coffee and deli-,
cious butter which made the
biscuits taste exceptionally
tine. For dessert were
served some wonderful
canned peaches and a large
piece of chocolate cake, alsq
made by the hostess.
I was privileged to be one of
the guests at this Sunday
night meal. I expressed my ap
preciation of the very good food
and the splendid cooking and
the hostess said:
"Thank you, but I have served
you with a plain meal, as you
know, yet somehow I take
greater pleasure in serving a
plain meal because my guests
usually like it better and besides
1 think THE BEST THINGS
ARE PLAIN."
"Right," said I, "The simple,
substantial dishes are always
the most satisfactory."
I then remarked to my hostess:
"The steak you served tastes as
though it came from Wilson &
Co., Chicago. You know I was
in Chicago several weeks, going
through the Wilson & Co. plant
and I saw how they handle their
beef. The Beef Department is
a wonderful place. I saw how
the beef goes through its several
processes of treatment before it
is shipped, how it is carefully
guarded and inspected before it
is allowed to go to the public,
arid I want to tell you that I
never felt so sure of the quality
of the steaks and roasts I eat as
I did after my inspection of the
Wilson & Co. Meat Department.
I assume that others in the
packing industry are equally
careful, but I know what Wil
son & Co. do to protect the con
sumers, so I am naturally pre
disposed in their favor.
"And the ripe olives you served
and the butter and the canned
peaches and the ketchup all
tasted to me like Wilson & Co.
products."
Then the hostess gave me a
very great surprise by saying,
with a smile:
"You are right about the steak.
It did come lrom from Wilson &
Co. 1 bought it from my butcher,
who says the meats he gets from
Wilson & Co. are splendid and
that he iinds his customers like
them very much.
"The butter is Wilson & Co.'s
Clearbrook Butter, and it is very
line. The coffee is Wilson &
Co.'s Certified Blue Label
Blend. Isn't it great?
"I will tell you also that I used
Wilson & Co.'s Majestic Lard
in baking the biscuits.
"The ripe olives and canned
peaches and the ketchup also,
come from Wilson & Co.
"I gave this dinner to-night in
honor of you, because I know
how enthusiastic you are about
Wilson & Co. food products,
and now that I have had a taste
of than myself I want to tell
you, hereafter I am going to buy
the foods that I see in the butch
er shops and grocery stores
wearing that reassuring guar
antee, 'The Wilson Label Pro-i
tects Your Table.'
"That's a wonderful trade-mark
when one thinks of it and grasps tts
full meaning. I do all of the mar
keting for our home and I am very;
glad that you introduced me to tha
Wilson & Co. products through
your letters. You have told so many
nice things about the workers anil
the fine spirit they show, and you
have told us so much about Mr.
Wilson and how fair and Just he is
that I Just can't help supporting a
house whose principles of business
are so fine."
Sincerely, William C. Freeman.
