"0 ur ot petticoats, and with the a woman who wishes to be considered a “good dresser.” but rather a wise cholce and wearing a dress that is suitable to the occasion. Nevertheless the problem is a diffi- cult one for the woman who must dress on limited means, and who wants to achieve the same results as her more fortunate sister. So much is put on the market today that is cheap that a woman is easily influenced to buy unpractical things, wasting her allotment for dress ex- penses. A well dressed practical woman will have merely several simple gowns in her wardrobe. For afternoon wear for somewhat dressy occasions, soft weaves of silk, creped voile and simi- iar materials are suitable. The style must be simple, and it is not amiss to add an original fancy belt, a few striking buttons, or pretty collar and cuff effects in embroidery or lace. For daily wear, shopping, visiting, or_traveling, woolen_ iaterial is. best, rfl‘ THE STORE THENEW THINGS FIRST Our new Fall and Winter Clothing, Shoes, Hatsand Furnishings had before.

JOSEPH LeVAY 118 Kentucky Avenue THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAR ELAND, FLA., OCT. 23, 1912, In choosfng an evening costume one should not be influenced by the “lat- est” fashions reported, as these elabo- rate costumes turned out by a more or less inexperienced dressmaker lose their beauty and finish, and mar the outline of the figure. Dresses with trains are frequently a yawning precipice. The colors of autumn were already proper underclothing the effect is good. But for street wear the petti- coat should not be omitted, and the manufacturer has seen to it that all unnecessary fullness has been remov- ed. Any pretty simple frock will look well for every day wear in the house, and the woman who wishes to take proper care of her street dresses and boots will remove them immediately upon returning home and put on 8 house dress and slippers.

SOBE TEA WL DAREEN THE HAR Restore Fadeq and Gray Hair to the Natural Color—Dandruff Quick- ly Removed. There is nothing new about the idea of using Sage for restoring the color of the hair. Our grandmothers kept their hair dark, glossy and abundant by the use of a simple “‘Sage Tea.” Whenever their hair fell out or took on a dull, faded or streaked appearance, they made 2a ! brew of Sage leaves, and applied it to their hair with wonderfully bene- ficial effect. Nowadays we don’t have to reso.t to the old-time tiresome method of gathering the herbs and making the tea. This is dom, by skillful chem- | ists better than we could do it our- selves; and all we have to do is to call for the ready-made product, Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, containing Sage in the proper strength, with the addition of Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy. This preparation gives youthful ! color and beauty to the hair, and is cne of the best remedies you can | use for dandruff, dry, feverish. itch- ing scalp, and falling hair. Get a fifty cent bottle from your druggist ! today, and you will be surprised at the quick results. All druggists seil it, under guarantee that the money will be refunded if the remedy is no¢ exactly as represented. : { | se.
