Palm Beach Gowns Are Colorful and Ornate Palm Beach, I'la., Feb. 21. (P— Simplicity in evening gowns seen at Palm Beach has been relegated to the background in favor of glitter, rainbows of color, mixed materials and ornaments. The only simple models are in figured taffetas and these are used to obtain double skirt results, either all the way around or in the front aloy One of this manner has the taffetta gathered to the Lasque top ten inches below the belt line at the back and at one side, gradually curving upward with an overskirt effcct, caught with a chou of self maferial at the other side only a few inches below fhe belt line. This gives a slant upward, both top and bettom, for | the outer breadth of ‘the figured green ground silk.

This not only stops fermentation and neutralizes excess acid, but exerts a coothing, healing and strengthening influen on the weakened stomach, and in- duces normal healthy digestion That 1§ why millions everywhere recommend “Pape’s Diapepsin.” Fol- | low their sound advice—get a 60- cent package of “Pape’s Diapepsin” from your druggist at once, and in-, sure stomach health, with the fear | | er. also spoke.

Very few changes will be made in the grand list of the city as a result of the meetings of the board of r lief, the last of which was held ye terday afternoon, according to a statement made this morning by Danicl L. Heffernan, dean of the board of assessor Figures showing the reductions or additions are now being compiled in statement form and will be avatlable within the next two or three days. The total of the grand list as completed by the as- sessors on February 1, 1028, is $52, 284, in comparison with §49,- for 1927. Most of the changes, it is helieved, will apply to automobiles, many aute owners disposing of their cars dur- notify the city clerk’s office to that effect. In some instances, it was pointed out, by Mr. Heffernan, that on last year's Iist some automobiles were listed considerably below their real value and for that reason there would be no reduction made on the taxable lamount, this vear. Tha corrected grand list will be submitted to the city council at its meeting on Tuesday evening, March 6th, and at that time a tax rate for the general city and the various tax- ing districts will be laid. Last year the general city tax rate was 16 mills, the first taxing district three mills, the second taxing district two mills and the third taxing district 1.2 mills. It is not belicved that any material increase will be made in the general city tax and accord- ing to those intimate with eity af- fairs, no increase will be necessary for any of the taxing districts.
