NEW YORK, June 7.—If you are tempted to try the new pose, slangily called the "debutante slouch,*' let me give you a word of advice—don't. It isn't graceful to stand askew on your hips, with a curious inward bend of one knee and outward turn of the heel, and besides it runs the heels of your shoes over so quickly that your feet always look untidy. This sup posedly fashionable attitude is an even greater abomination than the "kangaroo walk'' of a generation ago. which many of ns recall, when women tripped along wish the upper part of the body bent forward, elbows press ed close to the sides and lower arms straight out In front, with hands drooping at the wrists In true kan garoo fashion.

Many fatal cases of kidney disease have reached an Incurable stage be cause the patient did not understand the symptoms. Even ' today In Wil •mtngton, there are many residents making the same serious error. They attribute their mysterious aches and pains to overwork, or worry, per haps, when all the time their rheu matic pains, backache and bladder Ir regularities are most probably due to weak and ailing kidneys. If you are HI. if your kidneys are out of order, profit hy this Wilmington resident's experience. John McCauley, 932 Kirkwood St.. Wilmington, Del., says: "One of the family suffered from backache and Doan's Kidney Pills completely .llcved him. There was a great Im provement In every way Immediately after he took Doan's Kidney Pilla. They are a fine kidney medicine." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co.. Buffalo.

Remember the name—Doan's and «alte no other. . re row lines of the prevailing mode of dress, with dropped shoulder and uncertain waistline, are undoubfedlv responsible for the Idea In the minds of sothe misguided women that this drooping attitude Is keeping with the design. The prim and proper rlgidltv of I860 is much to be referred to the present pose. With their decollete bodices—worn on the street, mind you!—their constricted waists, and full, stiff skirts of silks, whose great est merit was achieved when they "stood alone," those old ladles were at the antipodes of today's fashions, It is a far cry from their dress fabrics to the soft, supple silks of the pre sent, which even with their bit of drapery cling closely, as shown In the frock first illustrated. A smart touch Is given to the front of skirt and waist by the drapery, the similar arrangement bringing them into harmony with each other. Collar and cuffs are of tan silk and the frock of tan and blue figured silk, soft and pliable, the motif bearing marked resemblance to those of the silks worn by our grandmothers, when plain or mottled backgrounds were strewn with tiny green leaves, buds, wild roses, forget-me-nots and old time garden flowers. Dresden silks are again very much In favor. An other fabric, with Dresden floral mot if. as attractive and fashionable as this soft silk for smart wear, is challle The ground is white and the flowers in delicate shades of pink, wlth green leaves attached. Green taffeta silk makes an effective trim mlng for this style of frock; wide girdle, collar, and pipings give It dis tinctlon. Challle of violet shade is also very effective. It is trimmed with messallhe of similar tone. In variably the girdle Is deep and may or may not have flowing ends.

The silhouette triage heavy to age may he draped and toned down to a harmon ious ensemble by a careful veiling or accenting of lines, chenille, jet and black silk were her sole refuge Now the young woman wears these and grandmather wears wears white, very elegant and very becoming to her silvered hair.
