That I'd admire him? Goodness me!
He's homely, Belle, as he can be,
MOnstrous mouth, retreating forehead,
And google eyes. ! think he's horrid.
I've seen that Mr.. Knox again
Your friend, | mean, that homely man
OF whom | wrote-and / declare
| must admit he has an air
About him that one must admire
But, Belle, | think | soon shall tire
OF his rude manners. Why the man ..
Stared till had to use my fan!
I went last night to the soiree,
And who, think you, CHANGED there to
be?
Why, Charley Knox! We staid till four.
| danced with him six times, or more,
Md he asked me don't you tell
To 20 with him next time. Now Belle,
I'm not in love. You'll laugh, know,
But still say he's not my beau.
Oh, Belle! Oh Belle! what do you
think
Happened? l can't sleep wink
Until I've told my dearest friend
Oh, Belle, my maideDhood is at an end.
That Charley Knox! Oh, dear, Oh, my!
| don't know whether to laugh or cry
| never vet did feel so queer
Just think! I'm engaged, my dear.

The day couture is elaborate and
the evening coitfure is extremely

glossy as we'll. Hairdressers say
that all this will tend to improving
woman's hair. but that there is dan,

irons too frequently. While the
waves put in with hot irons last
longer, more natural effect il

rollers or crimping pins. And if the
hair is to be waved all the time, it ia
quite the safest plan to use hot irons
very sparingly.
For evening the hair is arranged

combs are used, and exquisite orna-

to display all their jewels at one

The big, curving shell combs that
are worn are the exact counterparts
of those worn by our grandmothers.
One girl has really taken her grand

ieweler trim it with gold filigree
and set in brilliants. In very soft
loops and twists her hair is arranged
at the top OF her head, and just be-

popular.

The 8" shaped loop is very stylish
