At that time, many of the books were privately owned. Today, with most of the Bibles permanently retired to museums and thus off the market, the price should be higher. The Gutenberg Bible is valuable not for its scarcity alone. It is a curiosity because authorities aren’t even sure Johann Guten berg printed it. In fact, some ex perts claim the Fifteenth century German wasn’t a printer at all!— Washington Post. CARDUI In this modern time something wonderfully worth while can be done for practically every woman who suffers from functional pains of menstruation. Certain cases can be relieved by taking Cardui. Others may need a physician’s treatment. Cardui has two widely demon strated uses: (1) To ease the im mediate pain and nervousness of the monthly period; and (2) to aid in building up the whole system by helping women to get more strength from their food.

Aik your neighborl DOANS PILLS By CHERIE NICHOLAS IMPORTANT news—knit and suede * have formed a partnership! If t’s fashion thrills you are seeking iust make a visit to the nearest dis play of late fall and winter knitwear ashions and see how smartly knit md suede are carrying on in their lew allianee If you are interested in knitted ap parel, and of course you are, for every woman is sensing more and more that knitted clothes not only serve most faithfully, but when it comes to “style” it’s all there and— well, as we were saying, if you are interested in knitted apparel just wait before buying until you see the magic worked in the new outfits via the added touch of suede either in an accessory way such as gloves, belts, handbags, hats and shoes or by working the suede in as an in tegral part of the costume. See the stunning two-piece to the left in the picture. It demonstrates perfectly how skilfully designers are using suede with knit. The knitted fabric for this model is appropri ately called “huntress tweed.” The modern Diana will certainly “dress to the part” in this striking two some. Describing the knitted ma terial that fashions it, there are solid colored cotton nubs splattered throughout a vertical rib stitch. The jacket front is of soft suede in a contrasting color and a zipper closure. The silk scarf matches the tailored suede belt in color, and the little skull cap worn snugly at the back of the head is of the same knitted material as the skirt. As to the costume centered in the group, all the way from Tibet comes the fine soft cashmere wool so em phatically in vogue in knitted sports wear this season. Being well styled, this cashmere knitted dress will prove chic and comfortable at out door sports at the same time that it underwrites a promise of being well* dressed at afternoon functions. There are suede accents with gold eyelets and a suede belt with a gold buckle. The skirt is four-gored and flares gracefully. Cashmere does service to smart ness, comfort and sports style in the two-piece knitted dress shown to the right. There is a shirred yoke effect in the front part of the blouse, mounted by a neckline drawn up and bowed with a grosgrain ribbon in peasant fashion. The belt is suede. The wide hip-band empha sizes the youthful silhouette and is surmounted by novelty pockets posed on the diagonal. Which reminds us, the pocket theme is an important one. Watch the newest little jackets and see how decoratively and amusingly they are being pocketed this sea son. Furthermore, advance news is to the effect that designers are go ing to continue to “say it” for the new spring fashions in terms of novel and numerous pockets. If you are assembling a suede ac cessory ensemble, look up the smart new belts made of cutout leaves in multi colors riveted together with metal eyelets. They tone up the simplest knit dress to perfection. Another way to carry out a suc cessful partnership of suede with knit is to top the knitted dress with a knee-length somewhat flaring coat of bright suede. This type costume is proving a campus favorite. Also to wear about town there’s nothing swankier. As to sweaters and twin sets (some of the latter top the knit pull-on blouse with a cunning knit bolero instead of the usual sweater jacket) they yield to the new em bellishment of suede most gaily. <e> Western Newspaper Union. IN BLACK AND GOLD By CHERIE NICHOLAS Black and gold, black and gold! Style creators and designers are singing the refrain in clarion tones while the vast throng of fashion fol lowers join in a mighty chorus that resounds throughout the fall and winter mode. With the season’s highlight of black and gold in mind, Madame Jolles of Vienna, noted for handbags, especially exquisite petit point as well as other media, de signs the elegant bag which you see in the picture of black antelope with an imported dome-shaped gold frame and a circular center lock topped with a ruby red stone. Corsage for Youth Floral gifts are appreciated in dif ferent ways. A young person will usually like best an arrangement or corsage, while an older person is likely to prefer a plant. FASHION RUNS WILD IN USE OF FLOWERS By CHERIE NICHOLAS It all started back in the days of the Restoration, when ladies tied be guiling bonnets underneath their chins, with flowers tucked at the brim to complete the picture of fem inine charm. Now the designers are giving us bonnets, flowers and femininity, based on Restoration styles. And we’re using flowers where we never thought of using them before: nose gays pinned to chiffon handker chiefs, violets on a black suede glove, velvet neck-bands finished with forget-me-nots, flower jewelry, and flower polishes for fingertips. It’s all part of the back-to-feminin- ity movement, which started the cropping up of flowers and the soft ened, /subtle nail polish shades that make the hands look really femi nine. It’s especially smart to match up your polish to the flower you wear—clover polish with a silver-vi olet flower in your hair, tulip with a brilliant tulip pinned to your black gown, thistle with a bunch of faun- colored thistles on the lapel of vour brown fur coat. Wear All the Jewels You Wish and Be in Fashion From Paris comes report of an unrestricted use of jeweled gold and silver belts, huge clips, jew eled buttons and brilliant sequins and other amazing jewels, in way of necklaces, bracelets, rings and in numerable individual brooches, flower sprays, bow knots and such, bringing back 1900, 1860 and the Eighteenth century luxury display that characterized the modes of those periods. Luxury Motif Lame combined with furs and rich fabrics makes handsome evening costumes at the leading Palis fash ion houses. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I chool Lesson By REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, Dean of the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. © Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for November 28 CHRISTIAN FRUITFULNESS LESSON TEXT—John 15:1-16. GOLDEN TEXT—Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.—John 15:8. PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus’ Rule of Love JUNIOR TOPIC—The Loyalty of Love. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC— What May We Expect to Achieve? YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC- How Christians Become Fruitful. Thanksgiving day has just afford ed each one of us a special oppor tunity to return praise to God for the fruitfulness of America’s broad acres. It is appropriate that we think today of the Christian life as manifesting itself in the bearing of fruit. Christian work of which we spoke last Sunday may (at least in a meas ure) be imitated, but fruit cannot be imitated. It is the result of life and only those who know the new birth bear the fruit of Christianity. The chapter before us is a portion of Scripture which has been the pe culiar favorite of God’s children in all generations. It is at the center of our Lord’s words with his disci ples immediately before his death on the cross. Many are the expositions of this passage, but a beautifully simple one which came to the writer from Dr. W. Graham Scroggie is suggest ed as most helpful. I. Life and Fruitfulness (w. 1-8). Life results in fruit and there can be no true fruit where theie is no life. Christ is the vine, the Fa ther is the keeper of the vine. We who are Christ’s are the branches abiding in him, that is, living our whole life in and for him in such close union with him that his life as the vine brings forth fruit in us as the branches. That is real Christian living. But, alas, there are branches that seem to belong to the vine but they lack the one indispensable evidence of life which is the normal bearing of fruit. These the Father must take and cast away to be destroyed. While we must not read into these words more than our Lord intended, let us beware lest we explain away their serious import. These are grave words of warning to false pro fessors of Christianity, but they are not spoken to distress and disheart en true followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. Fruit in the Christian is undoubt edly first of all the fruit of charac ter but that character is also to show in conduct. Note the progress —“fruit” (v. 2), “more fruit” (v. 2), “much fruit” (v. 5). In order to bear more fruit there is need of pruning and cleansing (w. 2, 3). Pleasant? Not always, but always profitable. Let us thank God for even the pruning knife when its work is needed. Do not miss the prayer promise in verse 7. It is an unlimited prom ise with a closely limited condition. Let us meet the condition and claim the promise. II. Love and Friendship (w. 9-16). “This is my commandment that ye love one another.” In verse 10 we read that to abide in the love of Christ we must keep his command ments and now we learn that it is his command that we love one an other. We are not to await the Impulse prompted by the beauty or kindness or propinquity of someone, but we are to love one another. Many a Christian who has obeyed the commandments against steal ing, adultery, and blasphemy .has never noticed that he is commanded to love. The joy of Christ was fulfilled on the eve of Calvary by the love of his disciples for one another and for him. He rejoices today when we love the brethren and love him, for thus we enter upon the beautiful relationship of friends. Dr. Scroggie says, “We may be God’s children without being his friends; the one is based on his gift of life to us; the other, upon our of fering of love for him. Are you at' friend of God? You cannot have God and the world for friends at the same time. The friendship of the world is enmity with God. The world hates Christ, and therefore will not love you if you are like him.” But, oh! the sweet intimacy of fellowship with him. Read verses 14 to 16. Chosen and appointed by him, for “he first loved us,” we are not kept in the distant position of servants but are brought into his circle of friends with whom he shares the glorious secrets of his Father, and our Father. It is a great thing to be a Christian, a friend of the Saviour. Intellect Every man should use his intel lect not as he uses his lamp in the study, only for his own seeing, but as the lighthouse uses its lamps, that those afar off on the sea may see the shining and learn their way. The Past The wise man must remember that while he is a descendant of the past, he is a parent of the fu ture, and that his thoughts are as children born to him, which he may not carelessly let die.—Spencer.
