H WHIG THE SATURDLY, SEPT. 16, 1922. DAILY BRITIS I ---- ee ------ MEDICAL HINTS From Authorities Facts That Every Woman Should Know It is conceded by all recent medical authorities that within the last twenty-five to fifty years there has been and still is a steady and increasing tendency on the part of American woman to de- rangements of the reproductive system. Whether this increasing tendency is due to peculiar cli- matic conditions; to more seden- tary and luxurious habits; to the greater employment. of women fin manufacturing, in business and in professional life; to other and as yet undiscovered causes or as is most probable, in varying degree to all the foregoing, is still a mooted question with the medical profession. One thing is certain ~the fact remains and co-inci- dently has arisen the need and the demand for remedies to counter- act the results of this tendency. To those who have never given the subject attention or investiga- tion, it would be a matter of the @tmost surprise to learn of the large proportion of American wo- men who frequently suffer from functional troubles, One cele- brated writer says: "There is per- haps no disorder of the genital functions so common among civil- ized women as suppression of the menses." Another authority de- clares: "In women 'there is no function of greater importance than that of the catamenia (menses), and in none are de- rangements more frequent." Bays another author: "Some wo- men through ignorance," many through recklessness, and a few from necessity, go out lightly clad in the most inclement weather, and many suffer in consequence from Amenorrhoea, violent Dys- menorrhoea, 'and other derange- ments of the menstrual fune. tions. Not infrequently long. and ob- Stinate suppression of the menses if not relieved, results in the pa- tient "going into decline" and dy- ing of consumption, Almost equally common is Dys- menorrhoea (painful menstra- tion) which, unless relieved, im- pairs and wrecks the health of the sufferer, Thus, an authority on nervous diseases says: "There is but little doubt that derange- ments of the menstrual funotion have much to do with the occur- rence of Hemiscrania, Mascody- nia, Vaginadynia, Hystealgia, Overalgia, Neuralgias and a long train of other nerves affections in women, Many other citations from au- thorities could be given, but the foregoing should be suffiefent to satisfy everyone that there is a real need and a wide and legiti- mate field for a reliable and effi- clent remedy for these conditions, It is to meet this constantly growing need and demand for a thoroughly reliable remedy for these functional derangements, especially one of the most common of them, Le, the Amenorrhoea (Suppression of the menses) that the formula for the remedy we ad- vertise and sell under the name of DR. MARTEL'S FEMALR PILLS was originated and perfect ed. This remedy was prescribed in private practice by one of the most noted physicians in New York for 40 years (in all casts for which it is recommended) and has been on the market for 20 odd years, which 1s positive proof of its value.

Ba SILK, WOOL BLEND | velopments of Season, | | One-Piece Mixture Frock Assured of | Success Because of Smartness and Splendid Value. The most fascinating things are be- lng done in the world of knitted outer wear. The place long held by sweat- ers, though not entirely usurped per- haps, has been materlally crowded by the advent of capes, frocks and slip- overs of rather elaborate and unusual design. A blending of silk snd wool | 18 one of the big developments of the Dew season, if not in the weaves, at fa in the makeup of the garments. | One manufacturer is concentrating [ on this mixture just now. One of ther | many models is made of very sheer | mohair that carries a border of silk { about the hem and makes the collar | and cuffs. This is one of the Peter | Pan types, and has been carried out most effectively In contrasting color | schemes such as beige and jade. This { same combination of silk and mohair | Is attractive when binds of the silk | are inserted through the body of the | It Is novel this season and | gives a decorative effect achieved in | | slipover. | contrasting colorings. The one-piece frock of silk and wool | mixture Is assured of success because of its smartness and splendid value. | The waist and skirt of this dress are | made in different patterns, the former | & striped design, the latter a block, making a contrast that aids the effect. These stripes and blocks resemble the patterns of a Navajo blanket. A little Peter Pan collar gives a nice finish, while a braided girdle makes the waist- line a matter of choice. For outdoor sport wear the cape will hold a very prominent place for the coming season, if one is to Judge by the many clever versions on the market. Worumbo cloth that carried a figure in stripe or cross-bar pattern [1s made In the tuxedo model with slit { armholes, much warmer, of course, [than the silk and wool combinations of more ornamental nature. A frock of the chemise type made up in the same material completes a costume suitable for town or country wear. LEMON YELLOW VOILE DRESS This entirely hand-made French dress ie of lemon yeliow voile.

LONG GLOVES SUMMER STYLE Sixteen-Button Length to Ge With Warm Weather Outfit; White to Be Popular, hh BLOOMERS FOR THE KIDDIES wi de Warm Weather Waar; They Are More Comfortable. The mandarin influence on styles, | noted In many of the spring suits for | | Younger women, i8 credited 'with In- | spiration for a child's novel frock. Of course a wash fabric such as linen, | chambray and sateen could be used for 'the outfit, but as originally de | signed Chinese yellow silk was em- | ployed for the major portions of frock (and bloomers, with bands of self- {fabric in Chinesé blue and with | | touches of embroidery in a matching | blue trimming it. The hat carries out | | the Chinese néte In the fabrie, color combination and general shape. For warm weither wear there f§ | quite a leaning to the wide knee bloom- ers for children, the argument being | +f ! {that they ure more comfortable than | those held at the knees by elastic | ; bands. And one manufacturer has de- { veloped & clever little bloomer style | dress 80 arranged that the bloomers | | button right into the dress. A walst jor deep yoke must be a part of the | 'frock, so that the band to which the { | bloomers are buttoned may be in- visibly attached, but the idea Is a very | practical one, . Knee Garment Favored for | RAY TRELAINE. BLACK SATIN The lineup of smart and dainty | frocks for girls of 4 10.10 or 12 years | seems unusually attractive this season, | | Among the charming models recently | seen may be mentioned a serviceable frock of blue and white gingham 'in |-&. quarterinch stripe with slightly | long waist, the short skirt having In- | verted pleats at either side to give | fullness and deep collar of white | pique. Another was a straight line { sport frock of red and white checked | | Aannel, with white kid collar and cuffs | and narrow white kid belt. A georgette | | party frock was fashioned on the lines of the little bishop frock general- | ly worn by tiny babies. The dress was i white, trimmed with embroidered | butterfifes in various shades scattered | | | over its entire surface. Guimpe Makes It Possible to Trans. form Single Gown to Take the Place of Several. Chiffon embroidered guimpes with long sleeves are developed in the many different styles which sleeves have | taken unto themselves this season, The | guimpe makes it possible to trans- } tora 4 single gown to take the place | of several. It Is probable that the | many sleeveless jackets will make theif , Appearance. The sleeves of these | gulmpes have one thing In cotnmon, | that they are all wide at the wrist, | though this width is variously are | ranged, Decoration may cover the | sleeve for Its entire length, or may [be confined to a wide cuff section, Beige chiffon for instance, is allover embroidered in red and gold; a Jenny davy chiffon sieeve has a border of rose with gold stitehing. Contrasting sleeves can make many costumes of { one frock in a neutral color, opaque Sleeves can vary a day wear frock, and lace or chiffon sleeves serve the Same purpose for more formal cos- tumes, a Paris Fashion Notes. In leas strictly tailored suit modejs we oftefi find the jacket of one ma. terial and color and the skirt of an. other. One Paris designer contrives 'an 'odd and original effect in a long black satin coat by entirely covering | the silken material with heavy black lace. Every housé in Parls makes silk suits, usifig crepes In All sorts of weaves, nearly always on the three Diece idea, the frock underneath fre. quently having short sleeves to make it particularly appropriate and com- fortable for afternoon dancing. Some. times the frock is all of one material, or its top part may be of o crepe or crepe de chine, either match. ng or contrasting in cology ------------ Those who are most weary of life, and yet are most usiwilling \o dle, are such as have lived to no puiprse --who- have rather breathed than lived. There may be nothing in a name, but it helps some on a bahk check. - ~ CORNS | Lift Off with Fingers | MORE SERVICE FROM FROCKS | Gray trelaine Is used to fashion this clever feminine version of a suit, while black cire satin adds distinc- | tion to both skirt and coat. The side | Panel and novel collar are notes for fashion devotees; a crepe de chine blouse of self-color completes the cos- tume. IN THE STYLE PROCESSION | Fancy and Color Combinations Extend to Cotton Frocks for Porch and Morning Wear. The fancy and color combinations so much In evidence this spring extend to | simple cotton frocks for porch and | morning wear, The lavender shades, green, blue, in- | cluding periwinkle, which have had $0 much publicity, and the vivid dan- | delion yellow which 1s now occupying a prominent place in the style proces- | sion, are nll featured in gingham, with rather small checks preferred. White | and one of the colors are usually com- | bined In a small check. Of course, the { vivid Scotch plaid ginghams are still ! used, especially for children, but the | preference is for two-tone effects in | the small patterns. Linen is to be worn more this sea- son than for several years,' due pti- marily to the fact that it Is more rea- sonable in price, but an all-linen frock does require a great deal of pressing and laundering to keep it in present- able condition, a& all linens ple very easily. When combined with | gingham a more practical frock is the result, One smart little gingham frock seen recently, in a yellow and white check, was trimmed with lattlced Insertions formed of white organdie set iength- wise Of the skirt so as to give it a panel effect, the waist being. similarly treated. A row of the insertion neck was finished with an organdie frill. Organdie is a fabric that promises to have a strong vogue for summer and If a good quality is selected an organdie dress will give splendid serv- ice. It Is easy to launder, requiring no starch, and néeds but little in the way of triilnming. HAVE LAMPS FOR EVERY ROOM Decoration Available in Great Vari ety; Ostrich Feathers Ameng the Latest Styles. Every room nowadays has its lamp. In the living room there is a wide choice for table or. floor' lam Wrought iron, mahogany and poly- chrome effects in either metal or wood form 'most of the lamp standards.
