As a mild laxative. It acts gently,
but certainly, to open the little
bowels in constipation, colds, chil
dren's diseases.
A teapsoonful of Phillips Milk of

DRESSING TITIAN HAIRED WOMAN
The woman whose hair runs from red gold to copper is one of hte
most fascinating types in the world, says Lucien Lelong. But the
problem of dressing her is difficult. It is axiom that she should al
ways be dressed in either black or wiiite. The browns and beige are
his choice of conservative shades for the woman with Titian locks,
however. The copper-auburn woman will be at her best in warm
bronze brown, while the woman with red-gold hair must choose the
yellower beiges and tobacco brown. A beige satin afternoon gown of
Leiong's is pictured.

WHY CAN’T WE LEA VE
WEALTH AS WE LIKE?
. -
By WINIFRED BLACK
John A. died out west the other day.
He left about two hundred thousand dollars behind ‘him.
Before John A. died he made a will, and in that will he divided his
property among his friends.
• Ten thousand dollars he give to the faithful old
housekeeper who had kept house for him for twenty
years.
He left the money with the proviso that the
housekeeper buy a certain nice little flat which
would be for sale very soon.
There were two apartments in the flat and the i
housekeeper was urged to rent one apartment and I
live in the other.
Twenty thousand dollars John A. left to a young
couple Just beginning life.
His car broke down on a vacation trip and the
young man and his bride took John into their camp
and looked after him till the young man could tinker
up John's car.
And when the car was tinkered John A. was
having such a good time that he couldn t bear to
WINIFRED BLACK leave, so he spent a week or so with the young cou
ple. And when he got back to the city where he
lived he kept up the frinedship, and Sunday nights, when John A.’s house
keeper was gone, the young couple came over and the young fellow and
John fried bacon and boiled potatoes and the young wife set the table in
tne Kitcnen ana tney an sat aown
and talked and laughed and "camp
ed out” again.
And the little wife brought her
ukelele and she played all the old
tunes John liked, and John sang
and the young husband sang—dear
me, what a good time they did have.
And John A.'s friends at the smart
club wondered why he was always
“engaged” on Sunday night.
Twenty thousand dollars more
John A. left to a little old lady who
lived with her daughter-in-law and
was not very happy.
John and the little old lady were
schoolmates together In a little
country town years and years ago.
and the little old lady's brother
Jumped into the river and saved
John A.’s life when they were both
17 or 18 years old.
Twenty thousand dollars more
John A. left to the widow who had
been kind to the girl he married I
IT ■
K-—-i
when she was alone in the world
and didn’t know what quite to do
with her life.
He remembered the steward at
the club and he didn’t forget the
old janitor who took care of the
building where John had his office.
And now John A. and the wife
of his youth, who died long ago.
are buried side by side on the hill
overlooking the sea.
And new a flock of second cou- i
sins who never saw John Anderson
and never did a thing for him. have
risen from nowhere and have start
ed to contest John A.’s will.
It's funny—isn't it?
