The unprecedented demand of the
houses of the Russian parliament
a cabinet which.eali be supported
both by the legislative bodies and by
popular opinion is one.af the essential
steps toward the reconstitution of
Europe. •
The longer the war progresses the
more manifest , becomes the conclu-
sion that responsible parliaments
baked by enfranchised nations are es-
sential to a thorough treatment of
the evils which have produced the war.
In Russia as in Germany the cabinet
does not derive its power from the
parliament and the •parliament does
not obtain its authority from a maj-
ority of the people.
The result is that a group of a few
men in each nation, one man in theory,

A CAUSE OF INDIGESTION
People Who Complain of This
Trouble Usually Are Thin
• Blooded.
Thin blooded peopie. usually have
stomach trouble. They seldom recog-
nize the fact that thin blood is the
cause of the trouble, but it is. In
fact thin, impure blood is the most
common cause of stomach trouble; it
affects the digestion very quickly.. The
glands that furnish the digestive fluid
are diminished in their activity; the
stomach muscles are weakened, and
there is a loss of nerve force. In this
state of health nothing 'will more
quickly restore the appetite, the diges-
tion and normal nutrition than good,
rich, red blood, Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills act directly on the blood, making
it rich and red, and this enriched blood
strengthens weak nerves, stimulates
tired muscles and awakens thenormal
activity of the glands that supply the
digestive fluids. The first sign of im-
proving health is an improved appe-
tite, and soon the effect of these blood -
making pills is evident throughout the
system. You find that what you eat
does not distress you, and that you are
strong and vigorous instead of irrit-
able and listless. This is proved by
the case of Mrs. J. Harris, Gerrard
St., Toronto, who says: "About three
years ago I was seized with a severe
attack of indigestion and vomiting.
My food seemed to turn sour as soon
as I ate it, and I would turn so death-
ly sick that sometimes I would fall on
the floor after vomiting. I tried a lot
of home remedies, but they did not
help me. Then I went to a doctor
who gave me some powders, but they
seemed actually to make me worse in-
stead of. better. This went on for
nearly two months and by that time
my stomach was in such a weak state
that I could not keep down a drink of
water, and I was wasted to a skeleton
and felt that life was not worth liv-
ing. I was not married at this time
and one Sunday evening on the way
to church with my intended husband
I was taken with a bad spell on the
street. He took me to a drug store
where the clerk fixed up something

The time has long since passed
when fashions for misses were of sec-
ondary importance in the scheme of
things. The fashioning of clothes
for young people now receives as nxuch
attention as those of their elders, and
certain French designers have, of late,
been specially concentrating their ef-
forts on producing anodes for young
girls and small children. -
Whether for school, college or the
various social and. outdoor activities
which enter into the lives of all young
people, we find an•unlimitecl variety Of
styles.
At present there is a distinct rola,
tion between the styles for grown-ups
and those reaching the grown-up
stage. The slim silhouette, to which
women have taken with so much zeal,
is reflected in misses' styles, and cer-
tainly there is nothing more befitting
the slender grace of youthful figures
than the modes Which ndw prevail.
In one-piece style are the majority
of dresses, whether they are to be
slipped on over the head or closed at
the center -front or back, Especial'1y
becoming are those that hang from a
deep, square yoke, and of these there
are many varieties, for below the
yoke the material may be side -pleated,
box -pleated with groups of large or
small pleats, or just simply gathered.
To define the waistline, a leather belt,
a regulation cloth belt or a long, nar-
row girdle is considered correct with
this type of frock. The belt being
such an important factor, then, it is
not surprising to find many novelties
in that line. One of the latest
is a belt which starts out by being
wide in front, but finally becomes
