confined in the Homeopathic Hospital.
suffering intensely from Il wound which
she at first intended to be fatal Her
husband spent nearly all Of Sunday al
her bedside. as did her other. The sick
woman seemed exceedingly anxious
about her little daughter, but owing to
her weak condition it was deemed best
not TO bring the child to the hospital.
The only thing that the surgeons fear
now is blood poisoning. and they are
making every effort to ward off such a
complication The bullet is still imbed
ded in her body, but the surgeons are
rather dubious as to whether or not she
could stand the severe shock and Ezin

New Hair. CurIer,

Happy the woman who has a natural
Marcel wave in her hair, but the wom-
an who hasn't, must seek aid of art to
assist nature. A simple contrivance
for producing soft waves in the Golf
fure now being shown in the shops is
made of two bars Of horn of equal size,
about two and one-half inches long,
and quite narrow The bars are placed
one above the other, and fastened to-
gether at one end, so that they readily
slide apart. When closed, the end of
the upper bar fits under the end of the
lower bar, which curves round, prac-
tically serving the purpose of a fasten-
er. To use the curler, you slightly
dampen the hair, then roll it tightly on
the plain bar just as you wind a string
around pencil. You bring the other
bar over and close. After fifteen min
utes you unfasten the bar and pull it
straight out. The horn is specially
treated and said to possess a perma-
nenth warmth. If you want to make a
Janice Meredith curl, you begin to roll
the hair on the bar from the end up to
the head; this takes about thirty or
minutes. The price-ef the curriers'
is 20 cents for a set of four.
