New Neckwear Ideas
1*^. By ELEANOR GINN.
The return to fresh lingerie collars
is one of the arresting features for
spring. White leads, hut ecru, which
shades from cream to a deep tone
called amber, plays a prominent role
just now and Is one of the most pop
ular factors, although It does not en
tirely supercede white.
Tailored sets are particularly in
totestlng and are developed In linen,
Paine, English broadcloth, crepe da
•'bine and organdie voile. Gauntlet
cuffs ars shown with the majority of
sets, but not the extremely deep
ty'pes, for they have not proven to
he as popular. Straight ruffs are also
offered and several models are fas
tcned with pearl buttons.
Collars sre round and pointed In
the Peter Tan or Dutch neck type.
Vestees have collars similarly mod
eled In addition to wide V shaped
.^^•nover models.
Vestees are made with pleated
jabots of embroidered batiste In
three-tier effects, with full length
ruffles, and with narrow panels, out
lined with cording or formed by pin
tucking. The latter type has cuffs
- ■■■ ■-■
edged with a. hand of plntucking to
correspond.
Colored embroideries are effectively
employed on tailored sets, exem
plified in an amber colored pique
model embroidered In bright blue
conventional floral design. Net pleat
ing* edge several organdie- sets, sev
en td of which are modeled in tiers.
More formal types are seen In net
combined with filet. Irish and Valen
cientie laces, modeled in the bateau
and round shapes to correspond with
tlig necklines of afternoon frocks.

Adele Garrison
“My Husband's Love”
“What Are You Going to Do
About It?”
Mother Graham's explosixe com
ment that not one of her son-in-law's
ianiily had spoken to him for fifteen
\>mra before his recent tragic death,
interrupted the reading at the letter
from the attorney for Ike Harrison
family only for a second or two.
Characteristically, it was my mothc#^
in-law who spoke first. Leaning f
\ atd In her chair she spoke IrritaMy
to Lillian.
“Well, Mrs. Underwood, what are
\ou waiting for?" she demanded.
' i.et us hear the rest of this precious
epistle. Where did you stop?"
"Are they keeping them without
having consulted us as to our wishes
in the matter?” Lillian repeated com
rosed ly.
“Hat chanoe they have, of having
i heir wishes consulted,” Dicky mur
mured belligerently. T don’t sup
pose they know the names of one of
the children.”
“Richard,” his mother commanded
w 1th Icy dignity, “see that you do not
interrupt again.”
"Therefore.” Lillian went on, “we
are notifying you now that whereas
the mother’s death was prior to the
father's, the law gives to the fa.ther's
family the guardianship of the chll
dren and the administration of the
estate, provided no will be left. There
*Wno record of any will, and we
been Informed that though a
strenuous and most Inhuman effort
wag made at the hospital to have
the dying man sign a will—it was
prevented by his death.
No Trouble Wanted!
“YVe do not wish any unnecessary
trouble,” Lillian's somewhat throaty
contralto continued, "and will make
none if the children are at once re
stored to our custody. They will he
provided with good homes. Each
of the three brothers will take a boy,
while the girl will be given a home
v ith her aunt. We will wait five
days for the arrival of the children.
If l hey are not here in that time we
shall put tlie machinery of law in
motion. Yours very truly.
“JOSEPH T/OBDELL,
“Attorney at Law.”
“l-'or the Family of William Harrl
s«»b.”
“Their signatures sre all append
ed.” said Lillian, “hut it will take
me a minute or two to decipher
them.”,
■ Dont’ wait for them,” Mother
( raham commanded. “We haven't
time. It’s enough to have this rig
nmrole handed us. What do you
ir.nke of It, anyway?”
Hho addressed th* group ss a
whole, but It was Dicky who an
swered.
“I'd like to lamp this Lobdell bird,”
lie said. “Did you ever hear such a
scream ss that screed Is? Can't you
just see him, a dried-up little old
weasel from one of those little Penn
rylvania towns—”
"Who may not know much about
the writing of a legal epistle,” Lillian
struck In, "but who, nevertheless,
be nhle |o tie you all up In dou
bowknots if you don't get ahead
* of him. '
The Appeal In Harriet.
“Spoken like the sensible woman
j-iu are,” my mother In law com
^merited. “Richard, if you can't do
anything but make ridiculous com
ments, leave the room.”
“Oh, I'll be good,” lie promised,
moving to a place behind his moth
er, where ho put me into an agony
cf apprehension for tho control of
my laughter muscles by the wry
grimaces he made at me.
See to It that you are," Mother
Graham said grimly, and then she
turned to her daughter. "Harriet!
Haven't you anything to say?”
At the words every pair of eyes
in the room turned on Harriet Bralth
waite, and we saw a stately woman
trying hard to crush the emotion
which threatened to cast her
dignity and self control to tho winds.
Her face was working, and at her
mother's question she threw out her
arms with a sound in her throat as
1 fshfc were choking. Her husband
started toward her, but she waved
him back Imperatively.
“Oh! Oh." she gasped. "To think
there can be such people In the
world! Do you see what they are
planning—to separate those children
—each one In a different home—I
mean house—there Is no such thing
as a home In that family. They would
never know love, they would never
know pleasure or any birthright of
childhood. Work and Just as little
schooling as the law would permit—
that would bo the lot of each one of
them.”
She stopped chokingly, and her
mother's voice struck in, coolly, tan
talizingly Insistent.
“Well," she said, “what are you
going to do about It?”

You nfight he surprised to know
that the best thing you can use for
a severe cough, is a remedy which
is easily prepared at home in just
a few moments. It’s cheap, but for
prompt results it beats anything else
you ever tried. Usually stops the
ordinary cough or chest cold in 24
hours. Tastes pleasant, too—children
like it—and it is pure and good.
Pour 2Vi ounces of Pinex in a
pint bottle; then till it up with plain
granulated sugar syrup. Or use clari
fied molasses, honey, or corn evrup,
instead of sugar svrup, if desired.
Thus you make a full pint—a family
•upply—but costing no more than a
small bottle of ready-made cough
syrup.
And ss a cough medicine, there is
really nothing better to be had at
any price. It goes right to the spot
and giyea quick, lasting relief. It
promptly heals the inflamed mem
branes ihat line tha throat and air
passages, stops tha annoying throat
tickle, loosens the phlegm, and soon
your cough stops entirely. Splendid
for bronchitis, croup, hoarseness end
bronchial asthma.
Pinsx is a highly concentrated com
pound of Norway pine extract,
famous for healing the membranes.
To avoid disappointment ask your
druggist for “2V« ounces of Pinex’’
with directions and don’t accept any
thing else. Guaranteed to give abso
lute satisfaction or money refunded.
