NE of the big worries a bride has in planning her wedding is keeping the bridesmaids happy about. their own frocks. To find a style without favourilism for a bridesmaid's frock that will sult two or three different people, irrespective of whether they are fair or dark, tail or short, thin or plump, is no easy task.

So I am going to tell brides what Paria is showing in bridesmaids' frocks and my artist has sketched two sug- gestions for spring weddings,

Many skirts are extravagantly full, but on the left in illustrated a modified version of this fashion. The material depicted is embroidered organdie, and the fullness is gathered into the rather high waist.

Flowers will be used a grent deal to decor- ate bodices; they outline the neck in close formation or are buncheti eltlier ride. AB ́exaggerated floral decoration I noticed

gave the effect of n South Sea garland— it was made entirely of hyacinth blooms.

W

HERE no floral note is intro- duced on the bodice, the belt

is wholly composed of small blooms, Two other original arrange- ments are a spray of roses in the centre with fine cordings of silk for the rest of the belt, giving the effect of Ereca stalks,

The second showed variously coloured

poppies at spaced intervals round the waist, joined in between with fine green cordings.

Grown-up bridesmaids love a satin frock, and this material is being used both on the dull and shiny side. The dress illustrated is one that will prove useful after the wedding. A squarò neckline has a band of flat pleats and the sash is of, finely pleated chiffon.

B

OTH dresses have bouquets that sult their particular style. The close Victorian posy is well in keeping with the picture gown and the second

shower sketch portrays a bouquet.

Another material used for bridesmaids" frocks is not. A full skirt of this fabric in worn over taffeta; the latter material Is also employed for the bodice and full sleeves.

"Lace, too, is featured over narrow satin sheath skirts. Very finely patterned dark colours over flesh pink at a distance glve the effect of a pale strawberry Ice-cream texture.

Little boys are difficult to dress up, but if you can persuade a young bratlier or nephew to oblige, the little page is rather attractive. Pretty, too, in his sister in her first long frock of organdle decorated with single daisies and sash of narrow blue ribbon.

Fragile Twins Win Through To Health

With The Aid of

BABY'S OWN TABLETS.

Practical proof such as is afforded by the evidence of Mrs. J. Henry, a Canadian mother residing at 340 Sumach Street, Toronto, is much more convincing than any amount of theoretical talk.

"My first children were twins," writes thle luds, “They were born prematurely and weighing only 21⁄2 lbs each. When they were six months old I read of Baby's Own Tablets and decided 19. give them a trial. The results were very gratifying.

"These children are now 6 years old and I can truthfully say they have never had a serious sickness. My third child has been given these tablets since he was one month old, hos now 12 teeth and never had any trouble or slckness during teething.""

Just this simple treatment with Baby's Own Tablets is generally all that is needed to correct the general zun of childhood ailments such as constipation, Indigestion, 'wind', diarrhoea, simple fever, colds. The tablets expel worms and are invaluable at teething time, settling the stomach and southing the palus, thus quickly inducing restful sleep in a perfectly natural way. Absolutely safe for the youngest baby in arms, Baby's Own Tablets are equally good for children of all ages. From chemists everywhere.
