the center of the stage. Had she worn a
! ring in her tilted nose she could not
have attracted more attention.
The effect was not beautiful, Of
course, and the little beauty the wom-
an possessed nearly disappeared under
this trying crown. But she W@S de-
lighted with the sensation her haiS
created.
Her case was just as incomprehensi-
BILE as that of the girl in the bootblack's
cellar. She was less pardonable prob
ably, than the girl for whom the simple
joy Of hair dye took the place of gowns,
hats and jewels. Yellow hair repre-
merely insured for it's owner the
equivocal distinction of being the per-
son most stared at.
Few women who dye their hair do it
with the certainty that they will be
better looking. Young women attack
the operation in spirit of bravado
when they do not dye their hair as a
badge of the dramatic profession. Most
of the young women not decided bru-
nettes who go into the chorus dye
their hair yellow, not because it is GER
| tain to make them more beautiful, but
because since the days of Lydia
Thompson chorus girls have had blond
hair.
Black haired show girls and chorus

hair, since they are distinctive enough.
1t is only the brown haired girl who is
forced to take to peroxide and thus
make herself distinctive in one way
or another. She takes, of course, to the
blondest hair possible.
Women who begin to dye their hair
when white appears are much more
numerous than most people would
suppose. Few women can see with
composure the approach of age as it
comes to them through their hair. So
many restoratives are at hand that the
temptation to try one Of them is ir-
redstible.
They are called restorers, or ONT
ments or anything but dyes. They are
in reality nothing more than dyes that
turn the whitened hairs to a color APP
proximating what they were in the first
place. They are not intended. like 9TH
er hair dye, to be noticed. The desire
is to conceal their effects.
Yet even these modestly restored
hairs are easily recognizable In a
strong light there is no mistaking dyed
hair. Its presence is shown in other
ways also.
When the average. womans hair be-
gins to whiten the process is only a
small part of the general physical
change that is taking place in hair. 1t
is natural, therefore, that her hair
should be mixed with gray, when her
face shows the age that she has reach
ed.
Dyed hair makes a woman's express
sion hard and robs her of most of the
gentleness that should come with gray
hair. And the loss of this expression
which dyed hair always robs her OF
makes her look older than a crown Of
white hair would.

eagerly as most children read their
Mother Goose. When / could not un-
derstand things, he explained them to
me.
"Of course it never occurred to me
that I would ever make use of this
knowledge of mechanics, and I have
never taken a college course in civil
or mechanical engineering. While still
very young I married and moved from
my home in Minnesota to my husband s
ranch in Montana; but I hated ranch
life, and began to realize that 1 was
not living UP to the best that was in
me when I stayed there doing nothing.
We were not poor; I had everything
wanted, but felt that I was unfair to
myself when stayed there doing moth

that knew l could do as well as
they, or better. L don't care for idle
ness and society and women's clubs.
1t is so much more interesting to con-
ceive a plan for the development of
some natural resources and work 1t
out, thus having something to show
for ones time and thought and en-
ergy."
This was why Mrs. Tut saved her
money instead of spending it as most
women are pleased to, do; and when
she had enough gathered together to
invest she went from Montana to Los
Angeles to look for an investment

IN PEROXIDE LOCKS
Even Gray-Haired Women Resort to
Dye to Cover Traces of AGE.

| this conclusion could find no other eX-
PLANTATION for the singular places in
which hair dye appears. 1t is always

that popularity, there is no character

He had seen a girl of II, who acted
as cashier in a bootblack cellar. She
sat at a desk near the door, spent half
her day in semi darkness and received
for that service no more than 81
week. Her clothing was. of course,
poor. Her face was pale, and her en-
tire physique was of the kind describ-
nourished." But she wore, triumphant
ly, her crown of lightly dyed hair.
That lifted her above. the level of the
sordid cellar and added some sort of
glory to her dull life at least There
was no other reason apparent why she
should have gone to the expense and
trouble of having her normal locks
turned to shiny yellow.
Another example of the mysterious
delights of hair dye was seen in
case in which it seemed equally map
propriate. One of twenty mattresses in
a quick lunch restaurant was rather
whittier and wearier looking than the
others. She was certainly the thinnest
of the staff.
But she had one other distinguish
ing feature still more marked. Her
hair was yellow with a metallic splen-
dor that bespoke peroxide beyond a
doubt.
Not ALI Of the hair was equally yell
low Some streaks of it were, in
deed, much darker than others, and at
the roots it remained or had almost
returned to it's native dark brown. Tips
had evidently not been abundant
enough Of late to make the purchase of
a new bottle of hair dye or a visit to
the hairdresser possible.
But what the French call the beau
tiful remains" were still there. There
were unmistakabie traces of the hair
dye, and the top of the head even re-
manned brilliantly yellow. And this
was enough to make her different from
those around her, and struggling under
the weight of the heavy stone dishes
she seemed happy.
One woman in New York has changed
the color of her hair SO frequently that
a return to its natural brown makes
no greater impression on her ac-
auaintances than the most pronounced
blond. She is the only woman who ever
had the courage to come back from
Paris with her hair dyed a bright pur-
pie.

There were many things, Mrs. Tut

IRRIGATION IN

Over Two Hundred Thousand Acres
Have Been Experimental With.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 15.-Ac-
cording to bulletin issued by the CEN
sus bureau today, there are 6,205
acres of land under irrigation in Texas.
The system includes 1915 miles of
canal and cost $5,191,815.
Texas now ranks second among the
states in the utilization of underground
waters for irrigation. In 1902 $50 wells
were operated to irrigate 20,219 acres.
The cost of these plants was $249,253,
and the value of the irrigated prod
ucts more than doubles that amount.

H. A. Snow. for sixteen years agent

than barn. A few years later he
had the station fixed up and about
five years ago the place was remodel

everything was put in first class order.
Mr.. Shows family, who now live on

When a News reporter asked why
Mr.. Snow had been transferred he

Committed.
NIGHT SESSION HELD.

IaiI-Te Testimony Nearly all in-case
will 90 to Jury To-day, in all Prob
ability.

The trial Of John Simmons, OF
South Amboy, began before Justice
Fort at New Brunswick yesterday.
The defendant seemed confident OF
acquittal.
Asher Atkinson, the city engineer,
was the first witness. He testified as
to map that he had prepared, show
ing the location of the rooms where
the crime had been committed.
DIR. J. LeRov Brown, who attended
Jacobs, and DR.. Carroll, the county
physician who performed the autopsy,
gave testimony as to the mans
wounds.
John Jacobs, brother of the murder.
ed man, testified that his brother had
been in excellent health prior to the
stabbing.
The evidence for the State was al
in at the close of the day but not be-
fore the State had called Mrs. Jacobs,
who testified in favor of Simmons,
her son. She said Skimmons and
Jacobs were quarreling and when hel
husband picked up knife Skimmons
knocked it from his hand and gained
possession of it. She also said Skim
mons used the knife to defend himself
from the blows of his step-father.
A night session was held from 7.3(
. till 10 O'Clock which was taken up By
the defence. This morning it wat
continued during which time eighteen
witnesses have been examined.
The warden of the Jail and two
prisoners testified that Simmons had
a black eye when he was first brought
to Jail which greatly helped to prove
the story of the fight with his step
father. It is expected that tine case
will go to the jury this afternoon.
