''Why," you'd say. "the girl of 1868. Of course, she'd be astonished, and probably shocked, at the abbreviated costume of this summer's girl!" But wait a minute! Each might be as tonished at the other, and justly so, for there is such a wide difference between -the two. Think again, how ever, and you will grant that Miss 1919 has greater cause to be shocked than the old-time girl. She would be appalled at the idea of feoing into the water weighted with a big, long gray full flannel dress down to her ankles! She'd be horrified at hav ing to wear a hood with a cape at tached! How could she swim? Im possible! And for what other rea son does the modern girl go into the water if not to swim? Certainly not to paddle around near the ropes like a small child. Mrs. Augustus Lockner, one of Nebraska's pioneers, thinks that the bathing suit of today is horribly immodest. "Womm," she said, "wore old mother hubbards belted down with a string, and they never entered the water with men, even though the male attire consisted of a pair of long trousers and shirt that reached the knees. Girls sub ject themselves to unpleasant re marks when they are clad in these Kellerman suits." But her granddaughter, Miss 1919, who is better known as Helen Howes, Jias a very different idea. She says: "For real swimming or diving, the Kellerman suit is the Mr. and Mrs. J. H- Sunderland, Misses Alice and Helen Sunderland and George Edgerly. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence B.

Mabel McKinley-Niece of the Late President of the United States-Takes Nuxated Iron for Health and Strength And Says She Regards It as The Ideal Tonic For All Weak, Run-Down Nervous Women Dr. George H. Baker, Formerly Physician and Surgeon Monmouth Me morial Hospital of New Jersey, Explains Why Iron Is One of the GREATEST OF. ALL STRENGTH BUILDERS Says: He has found noth ing in his ! experience so ef fective for helping to make strong, healthy, red-blooded women as Nuxated Iron. Every woman who wishes to pos ses health, strength and beauty, should carefully read the statement of Miss McKinley who, after her personal use of Nuxated Iron tells of th results she obtained. Miss McKinley says: "While I hart often heard of Nuxated Iron I must admit thit irior to using it myself I had no idea of its remark able value for buildinf up the health and strength. "Following the strain imposed by months of the most exacting work ainging for the soldiers in the various army encampments, together with my social engagements and charitable pursuits, I found myself in such a weakened, run-down state that I feared a complete collapse. "It seemed utterly impossible for me to drop everything and go away for a complete rest, but I realized that as my condition was serious I must either do this or find some thing that would actually rebuild my waning strength and enable me to continue my activities. I had always been prejudiced acainst tonic preparations which, for the must part, I found only acted as a temporary stimulant and usually left one worse off than ever. However, when my own family physician insistently recommended that I give a fair trial to Nuxated Iron, I consented to begin its use. with a result that after a few days the weakness and exhaustion from which 1 suffered began to be replaced by a feeling of renewed strength and vitality. In less than three weeks' time my whole system was tingling with energy and power and I was overjoyed to find that I was once more in superb physical condition. "Nuxated Iron has accomplished so much for me that I regard it as the ideal tonic for all weak, run-down women. As a .strength, health and blood-builder. I am convinced Nuxated Iron has no equal.'.' ' In commenting on Miss McKii'-y state Kent, re sard tag the efficacy ol Nuxated L Miss McKinley has a voice of unusual quality and it was following her work singing for the soldiers that she became weakened and run-down and had recourse to Nuxated Iron. Once more in superb physical condition, Miss McKinley says she is convinced that Nuxated Iron has no equal as a Strength, Health and Blood-Builder. Iron, Dr. Ferdinand King, New York Physician and Medical Author, says: "It is my opinion that in practically nine times out of ten, unstrung nerves and failing strength and vitality are due to deficiency of iron in the blood. Many a woman who is run-down, nervous and who quickly tires out, suffers from iron deficiency and does not kiyew it. I adi convinced that there are thousands of such women who, simply by taking Nuxated Iron, might readily build up their red-blood corpuscles, increase their physical energy and get themselves back to vibrant and vigorous health By enriching the blood and increasing its oxy gen carrying power. Nuxated Iron will often transform the flabby flesh, toneless tissues, and pallid cheeks of nervous, run-down women into a glow of health, and make them look younger within a surprisingly ehort time." Among other physicians asked for an -rnion was Dr. George H. Baker, formerly Physician and Surgeon Monmouth Memor ial Hospital, New Jersey, who says: "What women need to put roses in their cheeks and the springtime of life into their step is not cosmetics or stimulating drugs but plenty of rich, pure blood. Without it no tvoman can do credit to herself or to her work. Iron is one of the greatest of all strength and blood-builders, and I have found nothing in my experience so effect ive for helping to make strong, healthy, rrl-hoiicd womn as Nuxated Iron."

If one is not going to swim, why go near the water? Those fussy little suits are pretty enough for the beach sand, but I have never cared much for girls who sit around on dry ground ot be admired. These old-fashioned togs may be modest, but they are impossible as swim ming suits. Anyway, it isn't what one wears half so much as it is the way one wears it, that makes it modest or immodest." Miss 1919 wants the shortest pos sible suit and no stockings nor shoes. She can't go bathing stock ingless or in a one-piece bathing suit everywhere yet. Only in Europe and our own progressive west. New York is still holding backward to its false sense of modesty and the ideas of 50 years ago. But woman will eventually win her freedom in the way of donning proper bathing attire. The bathing suits of 1875 were of flannel trimmed in braid, with over skirts down below the knees and long bloomers gathered at the an kles! Nearly every fashionable one had anchors embroidered on it for decoration. Symbolic, wasn't it? At that time those women who were brave enough to leave off the long skirt and go into the water in the pantalettes were considered "im modest, mannish and fast!" Accord ing tC( those standards, the modern girl must be "greased lightning." But just put a man in a gathered skirt down to his knees! Put a pair of shoes on him and some long stockings all the paraphernalia that women have to wear and then throw him into the water. . After they've pulled him out he will cast his vote for one-piece bath ing suits for women! For that matter, he'll vote for them anyway!

This poniotion comes as a great surprise to Mrs. Montague and also to her host of friends in this community. The work in Sacramento is of such an urgent nature that Mrs. Montague is requested to go to her new field at once. Her many estim able qualities have contributed to make her work as hostess and girls' worker in Omaha very successful. While her friends will regret her departure, they will rejoice to know that her work was so much appre ciated that this deserved promo tion has come. The local War Camp community service force bespeak for Mrs. Montague the same measure of success in Sacra mento that has attended her efforts in Omaha.

The arrival of Autumn and Winter Garments for Women , Not in quantities as yet. Deliveries this season are and will be slow. Our collection is most interesting, indicating as it does, the style tendencies. To our friends we would urge an early inspection. Select and purchase if you can. The present demand for the high-class garments, such as you expect to find in our stock, is too strenuous to permit desirable models to remain long in stock and their successors are mighty uncertain. DRESSES The first thought in autumn. Inspiring straight line models in trico tine and serge and the growing favorite tricolette. Shades that antic ipate the autumn leaves and landscape the browns, the modes, buf also the navies. Nature again is revealed in the Orchid, Begonia, Peach and Plum. N These latter jnore numerous in afternoon dresses of charmeuse or satin. All fabrics are popular in combination with georgette. SUITS The important item in the autumn wardrobe. Long, straight lines predominate, but blouses here and there are shown. Occasional fur collars add variety to the trims. New fabrics developed that are delightful Tinselstone, Peachbloom, Suedine, etc. COATS Here variety is found both in fabric and model. Dolmans and the wrappy coats still persist, but the long, graceful full belted models are favored. A tendency to shorter belted coats is shown. Early selections will be wise. FURS are receiving especial attention in our August Sale. Our careful preparation, the price reductions offered, the certain popularity and the undoubted fashion of furs makes this opportunity one not to be neglected. The wrappy scarfs and the almost coats are charming. The scarfs, from the one animal collars to the long stole, fit all purses. It
